"Sex, Lies and Videotape" episode 13 from season 4 of "Lois and Clark: New Adventures of Superman" which first aired on Jan. 19, 1997 was one of the better ones with a plot twist and the entertaining action was top notch. It involves peace and the city is giving the man of steel a citizen award only a photo taken showing Superman with Lois gets the public talking! Is Lois having an affair with Superman? Will Clark and his real identity be revealed? Behind the scheme is an evil business guy(played well by Jack Wagner) who's helped along well by his sidekick an independent photographer(Downtown Julie Brown). Also in this episode the sexy and beautiful Teri Hatcher once again has a damsel in distress scene as she's kidnapped and has her mouth taped with duct taped as it's tough to talk and tell Superman a message when she's rescued! Wonderful well done episode this series really was good as Hatcher and Dean Cain fit the model and mold so well for Clark and Lois they were such a cute couple that were in love with passion as this episode proved. As Truth saved the day.
