Clark Kent has begun to feel secure in his life and plans to propose to Lois. One night in a park, while Clark and Lois are on a date lying on a building, a small meteor crashes nearby, and an alien bizarre rock oozes out, attaching itself to Clark's moped. Meanwhile, escaped convict Leslie Willis falls into a particle accelerator, which fuses her body with the surrounding electricity. The result allows her to shape shift at will, becoming the Livewire. Clark's best friend, Lex Luthor, who seeks vengeance for his father's death, which he believes Clark caused, attacks him. The battle leaves Lex with short-term amnesia, making him forget his vendetta against Clark.
