Transcript

Presenting the transcription feature, Superman! Superman! Look at the guy! Look! Look at the guy! Look at the plane! It's Superman! And now Superman, strange visitor from the planet Krypton, who came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men, and who, disguised as Clark Kent, star reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper,

fights a never-ending battle against crime and injustice. Matters have taken a turn for the worst aboard the Clara M, last of the clipper ships, bound on a cruise around the world with Clark Kent and Jimmy Olsen aboard.

In our last episode, we heard how the crew, led by a sailor named Lymie, Newtonie'd and put the ship over. One of the crew, however, Scotty McTavish, refused to join the others and was bound to his bunk.

Jimmy, unable to sleep and in search of someone to talk to, came upon Scotty and released him. Together they made their way to the radio room, hoping to send the message of distress to the San Jose.

A South American liner now steaming toward the Clara M to take off the badly injured captain. Scotty and Jimmy began to send the call to stress and then... ...but wait... listen. You're doing it, Mr McTavish, you're doing it fine.

Hi, Luddy. I am... What? Lainey. I'm a gun, McTavish, and I'll know how to use it. Take your hand off that radio, Kay. Take it off, I say that you're a dead man. So you must try and ascend the message to the San Jose, eh?

I... crying, but not shex-sheatin', I'm thinkin'. The better for you. I swear I'm a carriage to life within what stands in me way is not worth tapin'. And you'll both come along with me. Where are you takin', Eslame?
