Synopsis for "Superman's Pal's Pal"

Perry White calls Jimmy into his office to reprimand him and tells him to shape up because there is a new intern at the Daily Planet. Jimmy takes the opportunity to show a "promising-looking youngster" the proper procedures and how to cover Metropolis news. Throughout the day, they follow Superman as he fights a villain with an affinity for guns, named Sinter. However, they keep getting into dangerous situations and Superman has to save them.

Finally, Superman defeats Sinter and Jimmy returns to the Daily Planet, worn out and disappointed that he didn't get a good photo. He then learns that the kid he took along with him was actually Lois's little cousin, and the real intern was impressing Perry. Jimmy despondently walks to Perry's office, but not before Clark cheers him up by saying the day wasn't a total loss, as he peeks at the photo that Tim accidentally took.
