"Duke Barlow" is being given a lie-detector test by Inspector Henderson, with Superman looking on. The police are trying to find the mastermind of a huge crime ring. "Duke" was just one small guy in the gang, who got caught robbing a bank. He's pretty smug for a little man in the business and he tells the truth. He only knows the ringleader by the name of "Mr. X."
Superman, Henderson and his whole crew can't figure out who "Mr. X" could be, and it's driving them crazy. Henderson introduces "Sgt. O'Hara," a blonde bombshell, to Superman. Out of nowhere, Superman asks her, "Will you marry me?" Henderson does a double-take and the sergeant says, "Well, I'd be delighted."
Hey, the actress was Joi Lansing, who I remember quite well. She was awesome! The headline in the Daily Planet the next morning reads, "Superman Marries." Lois Lane wrote the story and is bummed out. Poor Noel Neill....competing against Joi Lansing. Forget it. It's like your local high school football team playing the New England Patriots.
Mr. X (series regular John Eldredge), the head of the crime syndicate, kidnaps "Mrs. Superman." By doing so, he thinks he can keep Superman away from his crime activities.
How is that? Did Superman really marry this woman, or is it just a ploy to nab the bad guys? If so, how are Mr. and Mrs. Superman (sounds odd, doesn't it?) going to capture the arrogant Mr. X and his followers? How do Lois, Jimmy and Mr. White figure in on the plans? I'm not saying, except it involves a "bathysphere." Olsen asked Perry what that was, and White called him "a blockhead," so I guess I am, too. (It's a diving bell in which people get in and explore the ocean depths).
Anway, being a blockhead, I enjoyed ogling "Mrs. Superman," who was hot, although I wish I could what she looked like 15 years earlier. According to the IMDb profile of her, she must have been something else!!
