Up in the sky! Look!
It's a bird!
It's a plane!
It's Superman!
Showdown
Faster than a streak of lightning.
More powerful than a pounding surf.
Mightier than a roaring hurricane.
This amazing stranger from the planet Krypton, the Man of Steel, Superman!
Possessing remarkable physical strength,
Superman fights a never-ending battle for truth and justice,
disguised as a mild-mannered newspaper reporter, Clark Kent.
Hello, stupid. It's about time you showed up.
Come on. Come on. Hand it over.
Okay, boss. Here it is.
This is a swell racket, boss.
And this Superman outfit. It works like a charm.
Gee, boss. It was only a fin.
Next time, it'll be a mickey finn.

"Friend Turns Foe". Why that's ridiculous!
It couldn't be Superman.
What do you make of it, Clark?
Hey you two, the editor wants you to cover the opera tonight.
And don't forget, it's formal.
Good, now I can wear my new evening gown.
[opera music playing]
[screams]
It is Superman.
Well, my double's in for some trouble.
[sirens and whistles]
Now wait a minute, Mr. Superman. You got me all wrong.
It ain't me, honest. It ain't me. It's the boss. He made me do it.
Aw take it easy, will ya, Mr. Superman? Give me a chance.
I'll come clean. I'll talk. Honest, I'll talk.
Oh! Don't touch me!
I knew there was more to this story.
Well, did you enjoy the opera?
What's the matter, stupid? Did you lose your tongue?
Don't stand there like a dummy! Give me the jewels.
Are you trying to double cross... me?
Why you...
[whispers] Hey boss. That's Mr. Superman.
Well, I uh didn't expect to see...

[whispers] Come on. Hurry it up.
Aw, next time you play Superman.
Boy, have I got a story.
What's the matter bright eyes? The opera get you down?
Oh, just been dreaming I was Superman.
Hmm, a fine Superman you'd make.
Well, I can dream. Can't I?
