Synopsis for "Our Town"

Superman has kept himself busy all morning, from repairing a space station to helping his fellow Justice League members with worldwide emergencies. After a quick flight above Metropolis, Clark returns home for some well-deserved downtime with his family. He decides to take out for breakfast and then for the county fair, even promising his work as Superman will not interfere in their fun night; much to Lois' cynical disbelief.

The Smith family arrives at the fair, where they are met by Kathy Branden, Jon's friend. After playing some games and visiting the science competition, Clark comes across some robbers about to steal from the main ticket booth and quickly steps in to stop them as Superman. After that, he rejoins his family in time to see Kathy and his grandfather win the Blue Ribbon Contest with their cow.

The fun night ends with the Smiths going to the rollercoaster, just as the announcer inadvertently talks about Superman's efforts in stopping the robbers, upsetting Lois.
