What happens
Clark Kent continues his account of Superman's adventure on the planet Utopia. Superman, carrying the little fat man Poco, struggles through space after being knocked off course by the elements, and they eventually sight the planet. Meanwhile, on Utopia, Jimmy Olsen and Antar are led toward a sealed space shell prepared for them by the tyrant Zoram. Antar and Jimmy trade bitter words with the guards, and Jimmy despairs as the hatch nears. Superman descends toward the palace courtyard, only to find himself unable to move under the planet's crushing gravity. The episode is part eight of the Superman serial, which first aired on April 18, 1947.

Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
