Synopsis for "When Supergirl Replaced Jimmy Olsen!"

After being exposed to Red Kryptonite in the future, which causes her to become super-powered only as Linda Danvers but powerless as Supergirl, the Girl of Steel returns to 1964. But she accidentally sees an event that will happen 48 hours from her "present": the death of someone who appears to be Jimmy Olsen in the crash of the Daily Planet helicopter. To save Jimmy's life, Supergirl changes to her Linda Danvers identity, gets a job on the Daily Planet, and manages to get Jimmy fired before he can take the helicopter trip. However, she hears the helicopter has crashed and that "Jimmy Olsen" has died in it. Rushing to the scene, Linda discovers the real Jimmy Olsen revealing the corpse to be fugitive criminal Marty Blake, who, in disguise, resembles Jimmy. Perry White hires back Jimmy with a raise, and Linda quits and returns to school.
