Clark and Lois' editor shows them a letter from a mad scientist threatening to use an electrothanasia ray on the city at midnight. Lois insists on handling the story herself, and flies off in a plane. At his hideout, the scientist's assistant (a bird) spots Lois approaching. When introducing herself as a reporter, Lois is abducted. The scientist demonstrates his ray by destroying the city's tower bridge. When hearing of this destruction Clark Kent changes to Superman in a stock room at the Daily Planet. Superman manages to prevent the ray from destroying a building and starts punching the rays back to their source. The scientist tries stopping Superman by increasing the power but Superman keeps punching and eventually the ray device overloads and explodes. Superman rescues Lois and the scientist ends up in jail. The story is Lois' scoop.
