The episode is part nine of the 1946 serial The Mystery of the Dragon's Teeth in The Adventures of Superman, first broadcast on March 27, 1946. The transcript covers only the first part of the episode, which ends with Lois alone in the storm.

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.
