What happens
Clark Kent and Jimmy Olsen arrive in the city of Alaria at dawn and learn that Herkamene, a friend of Peyton's, has been condemned to death by the grandmaster Saki. They hurry through the streets, trace voices to a council chamber, and overhear the plotting against Herkamene. Jimmy begs Clark to act, but Clark has a plan of his own. The episode is part sixteen of The Adventures of Superman, and the transcript ends with Herkamene standing on the gallows in the public square, with Clark out of sight and Jimmy waiting nearby.
The city of Alaria, at dawn, moving from the streets to Saki's house and a council chamber, then the public square where the gallows stand.
Characters: Clark Kent, Jimmy Olsen, Herkamene, Saki, Peyton
Listen for: Clark's plan for saving Herkamene, and whether Superman can act without being seen by Jimmy.
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.
