Aah, the 1950s when you could fool anyone with misinformation and they wouldn’t turn to the internet for fact checks. The scientist in this episode got exposed to extreme radiation for a lengthy period of time and they say he has a few months to live. In 2025 you would have a few seconds so don’t buy into Marvel’s Hulk and this episode of Superman. Things are serious. But the man is radioactive and Superman enters to help him and ends up fine and so does Jimmy and Lois eventually when Superman took away their radioactivity. Proof positive since Noel Neill and Jack Larson lived to ripe old ages. Criminals who tried to hurt the man got another thing coming. Great episode and great plot execution.
