Transcript

Presenting the transcription feature, Superman. God! The first, it's a plane, it's Superman! Yes, it's Superman. Strange visitor from the planet Krypton, who came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men.

Superman, who can leap tall buildings of a single bound, Brace a speeding bullet to its target, thin steel in his bare hands, and who disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth and justice.

But before we join Superman, listen. And now to our story. As you remember, Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen were sentenced to death in the Valley of the Shadows, because they were unable to tell the Supreme Council of the Inca Indians how Kent and White escaped from their dungeon prison.

Bronson the pilot was spared because the Indian chiefs hoped he would teach them how to fly the stratosphere plane marooned on the mountain plateau. Discovering that Bronson was being hailed in the tunnel cell, Kent joined him there and learned of the death sentence imposed on Lores and Jimmy.

Posing as chief of a distant tribe, Kent asked Seber, the aged tunnel gatekeeper, to take him to the valley of the shadows. The roost almost worked until Seabird noticed that the jewel can't war around his neck had changed color, proof that he was lying.

In the meantime, Lois and Jimmy, flanked by armed warriors, have entered the valley of the shadows, and are slowly approaching a giant waterfall that thunders over a cliff, and seems to pour into a huge hole in the ground.

As they near it, the warriors stop, draw back, and begin to chant. Listen, I guess this is the last stop, Miss Lane. What do you think they're gonna do with this? I don't know, Jimmy.
