Synopsis:
Jimmy discovers the lab of criminal Doctor X. While searching the lab, police close off the building, having discovered it themselves. Jimmy leaves and takes a pair of odd glasses with him.

Jimmy soon realizes the glasses allow him to see future events related to Superman. Jimmy also sees his own death. Knowing the future, Jimmy helps Superman avoid several dangers that he has foreseen. Then he tries to avoid his own death. Superman then shows Jimmy that the death Jimmy saw was fake. It was part of a public service film. Jimmy is relieved that he will not die. When he loses the glasses, he doesn't mind.
