There's a fire in a Daily Planet warehouse and, since Clark Kent isn't around, Perry White rushes out to cover it himself. Lois asks, "Can we (her and Jimmy) come, too?" White responds, "Might as well; you can't make it any worse."
At the fire, we see a truck-stand saying "Fireman's Friend" which is really two guys robbing the safe inside of $12,000. Meanwhile, White gets blamed for the robbery because he last handled the money and how could it disappear in the middle of a fire? (We saw what happened but the police don't know.) Perry turns into a crime reporter to try to clear his name.
Along the way, we hear seven wisecracks from one of the two crooks. The jokes weren't appreciated by his partner, but I thought they were pretty funny. It helped make this a very entertaining episode.
