What happens

Jimmy Olsen, a cub reporter for the Daily Planet, is caught up with the juvenile gang Muggs leads, which is working for the Guardians of America, a group spreading intolerance. Jimmy learns the gang plans to bomb the car of editor Perry White outside the house of Reverend Dr. Leeds, and he tries to warn White before the attack. Muggs grows suspicious and forces Jimmy along to help place the device. The scene turns violent, and Jimmy is left dazed and injured, with the car and its occupants at the center of the danger. Clark Kent and the others then begin planning how to expose the organization.

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.
