Due to spotty preservation, this episode is the only one I can find in this series in the Superman program. Sponsered by Kellogs Pep.
The story thus far deals with a flaming meteor that crashed onto a nearby farm. As Clark Kent investigated, he became weak and dizzy. Fearing a doctors exam would reveal his secret identity as Superman, he is reluctant but Perry makes him go anyway. His impervious skin has broken the doctors needle.
Today, he is still in the doctor’s office, but manages to get the visit over with. The mysterious word, “Krypton” keeps springing into the mind of Clark. He’s certain it holds a clue to his weakness, and the meteor. There’s something familiar about that word, ‘Krypton,’ it has a familiar ring to it, but he can’t figure it out. . Back at the Daily Planet, Perry and Lois hound Clark about what he is keeping a secret from them. Are they on to his Superman identity? Lois reveals that a small group of scientists know about a planet named Krypton, and they are certain that this meteor is from it.
In following episodes, the pressure is on Clark, and he loses his temper with his friends. He continues to make sense of the mystery behind the strange meteor. I think it would be safe to assume that he figures it out, and still keeps his identity safe.
