Synopsis for Superboy: "Happy Birthday!"

Clark Kent and Betty Marr have a birthday on the same day. Clark is concerned that if everyone comes to his party, no-one will go to Betty's. Meanwhile, Betty's father, John Marr, is named as a suspect in a hotel robbery, but is released after a questioning. Smallville gossips believe Marr could be the real culprit, and forbid their children to attend Betty's birthday party. Superboy sets things to rights by learning from the Chief Inspector of the police that the real culprit has been arrested, helping to spread the word of Mr. Marr's innocence, ensuring that kids come to Betty's party, refreezing melted ice cream (by creating a vacuum) and making new candles for her cake. After the party, Superboy comes home as Clark Kent, and learn that his parents have a birthday cake and party waiting for him.
