It's Lois & Clark Season 1, Episode 9: The Man of Steel Bars!

Yes, we have yet another episode about HEAT! Metropolis is melting under a bizarre November heatwave. What or who could be at fault? Solar flares? Lex Luthor's power plant? Superman?!?!

Meanwhile, blond kids with bowl cuts are priming to take over the city, Martha and Jonathan make their first trip to Metropolis, and we bid a sad goodbye to Eduardo Friez.
