Plot summary
Lois and Clark try again to have their first date when Jimmy gets arrested for a murder. Perry bails him out and everyone tries to find out who the real murderer is. In the meantime, Superman is tricked and steals nuclear warheads from the government to give them to terrorists, thinking that he was doing the opposite; returning stolen nuclear warheads to the government. As it is revealed, behind the murder and the stealing, is Jimmy's boss from his second job, Lucky Leon ( John Kapelos ), who is also involved with Intergang.
Superman finds where Lucky Leon is and gets him arrested, returning the nuclear warheads to where they belong. During the episode, Lois and Clark do have their first date and it ends as a success, but Lois tells Clark that she can't see him anymore. The next day, it seems strange between the two, and Clark tries to find out from Lois what he did wrong. Before she can give an answer, Mayson interrupts them and asks Clark to have lunch with her. After they leave, both Jimmy and Lois get calls with information regarding Lucky Leon, but they are unaware that Lucky Leon was listening to their conversation the entire time.
Lois, Jimmy, and Clark track Lucky Leon to his old factory with the stolen weapons. They also find out that he is working for Intergang, before they can get help they are captured. Clark scares them off by setting off one of the warheads, but it has a backup timer, so Superman is forced to kick it into the sky, setting it off at a safe distance. Once everyone is safe, he goes after the criminals, and clears Jimmy's name as well. Also, Superman returns the weapons and is clear of all charges.
At the end of the episode, they kissed for the first time. While they are kissing, Mayson ( Farrah Forke ) gets into her car which is rigged with a bomb. Clark hears the bomb and runs to save Mayson but he gets there too late. Before she dies, Mayson sees his Superman costume underneath his clothes and realizes that he is Superman and she also whispers into his ear the word: "resurrection". Last appearance: Farrah Forke as Mayson Drake.
