Synopsis:
Clark and Lois interview Mr. Grogan and his super-movers, a group of construction workers that move large structures. On one of their jobs, an accident occurs, but Superman saves the day. He also discovers that the accident was caused by sabotage and uncovers a Nazi spy.

However, the spy was not the real saboteur. Mr. Sniggle, Grogan's rival was responsible for the accident. He tries again to ruin Grogan, but Superman once again prevents trouble. Finally, Sniggle tries to divert Superman so that he can take over Grogan's company. The Man of Steel catches on to the ruse and returns in time to stop the corrupt businessman. Sniggle then confesses that he wanted to takeover Grogan's moving company because they were scheduled to move a vault containing fifty million dollars, and he wanted to rob it.
