What happens
Clark Kent searches for Luigi Renazi and Salim Shah, two leaders of the world peace movement, after they vanish from a State Department reception. Lois Lane and Bucky Taylor are held prisoner by the man without a face, a mysterious figure plotting against the peace organization. The episode is part fifteen of The Adventures of Superman, first aired on April 7, 1947. Clark slips away to change into Superman and scours the city for the missing men. Meanwhile Lois and Bucky, bound at the wrists and ankles in a large house, watch Renazi and Shah being taken inside by armed men. The part ends with Lois setting fire to the drapes while Bucky looks on in alarm.
Late-night Metropolis, including the State Department, a hotel, and a large house on a moonlit estate outside the city.
Characters: Clark Kent, Superman, Perry White, Lois Lane, Bucky Taylor, Luigi Renazi, Salim Shah, The man without a face
Listen for: Clark's realisation that Renazi and Shah have disappeared, and Lois setting fire to the drapes as her captors bring the two men into the house.
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.
