Superman finds himself uncomfortable among the Kryptonian survivors in Kandor. He welcomes a "call" from Lois, but when he realizes it was made with the aid of Lex Luthor, and will cause Brainiac to return to Earth, he pleads with her to end it. Aware of the contact, Brainiac does return to Earth and extracts Metropolis, while Jor-El plans to restore his son to normal size and help him escape Brainiac's captivity.
