Presenting the Transcription feature, Superman! It's a bird, 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, race a speeding bullet to its targets, then steal in his bare hands, and who disguise this Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth and justice!
And now to our story. It begins today in the editorial room of the Daily Planet. Clark Kent is putting the finishing touches on a last minute news release when Lois Lane saunters up to his desk.
He's so industrious. Huh? Industrious? I am de... Oh, I get it. Alright, no, I'm not industrious. I'm just knocking this thing out so I can get over the football game. Incidentally, how about joining me?
Are you kidding? No, not at all. When I go to a game, Mr. Kent, I like to be escorted by someone who knows football. I don't want to spend the afternoon explaining it to you.
Oh, I think I know enough to get by. At least the sports editor believes I do. He just asked me to cover the game. You... you will cover a football game? Sure. I expect you don't even know the difference between a T-formation and a double wing bag.
Oh, now maybe I'll surprise you. Come along and see. Now, don't tell me you want a football yourself. No, but... well, I... I didn't think so. I think so. It's a little too rough, isn't it?
Look, do you want to go to the game or don't you? Which game is it? The Tropicalish University against State College. The Tropicalish won't have any trouble winning. I'll set for an undefeated season, but it should be a good game to watch anyway.
