What happens
Clark Kent and Professor Thorpe return from the waterfront to find that young Jimmy Olsen, a copyboy from the Daily Planet who stowed away on their plane, has gone out alone. Kent is uneasy, and it is getting dark. Jimmy, meanwhile, searches a graveyard area for a cave, following a message that points to a hiding place. Kent decides to look for the boy himself. The Adventures of Superman is a radio serial from 1940, and this episode is part twelve of the story. The transcript covers only the first part of the episode, so this guide describes the setup and the early events only.
A Caribbean town at dusk, including Dr. Corralo's house, a graveyard, and a cave behind the rocks.
Characters: Clark Kent, Professor Thorpe, Jimmy Olsen, Juan, Escobar, Carlos, Superman
Listen for: Kent's growing worry about Jimmy's disappearance and Jimmy's search for the cave.
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.
