Superman - Hope Amidst Uncertainty in Metropolis
Boy: [opening narration]
In the decade of the 1930s, even the great city of Metropolis was not spared the ravages of the worldwide depression. In the times of fear and confusion the job of informing the public was the responsibility of the Daily Planet. A great metropolitan newspaper, whose reputation for clarity and truth had become a symbol of hope for the city of Metropolis.

Desk Sergeant: [on seeing a boat in the middle of the street and Superman flying off]
Mooney, first bottle's on me, let me get my hat.
