Synopsis:
Lois Lane goes undercover as a teacher at a public school to get a story about some juvenile delinquents. The students harass Lois until Superman arrives. To teach the boys a lesson, he offers to grant them a wish for writing an essay.

The three worst boys are chosen as the winners of the contest. Superman fulfill each of their wishes, but not in the manner they wanted. Each boy is scared into behaving himself, and they return to class as changed individuals.
