| Synopsis | - Lana Lang finishes a long day at Lexcorp when a giant insect appears, demanding Lex Luthor. When she doesn't produce him, it kidnaps her.
Superman tosses out the first pitch at game seven of the World Series. He throws a pitch, flies forward at superspeed, and hits it into orbit toward a target on the moon, which corporate sponsors will use to determine a series of donations.
Chris cheers Clark on. As he gets excited, he falls over, sick, and his powers begin to malfunction. He tries to hide it from Lois.
Superman checks on Lana, and is surprised to find her missing. He chases clues to Morehead, North Carolina, where he is ambushed in a Lexcorp facility by Pyridax, an alien being with a small army of insect thralls.
Superman is thrown aback by their extraterrestrial attack, and submits to being cocooned as he bides his time recovering. He bursts out when he finds out they're hurting people, however, so he flies Pyridax up and demands to know where the queen is.
Pyridax explodes himself, and Superman returns, only to learn that the bugs had moondust about them.
On the moon, Lana watches in horror as a four armed, winged, naked version of herself emerges from a cocoon.
