Episode name:
The Beast Beneath These Streets

Description:
Superman bearhugs the Beast.

Superman has had his powers stolen by a wicked scientist turned beast named Morpheus. . . but he's also gained Superman's weakness. Lois and Jimmy help distract and use this "weakness" so that Superman can catch the Beast in a bearhug (twice) and trap it.

Of course I would have liked to have seen the Beast bearhug Superman as well . . .

The first bearhug is for 3 seconds, and the second goes for 4 seconds. Both bearhugs have a cut-away shot after the grab.

This is the last bearhug in the series.

Available on DVD, disk 2.

Plot:
A part of Metropolis has been buried undisturbed for 100 years. A grand opening involving Superman takes place to unearth "Old Town". Legend has it that the people of Metropolis 100 years ago paved over the city when a demented doctor called Morpheus used an invention he created to endow himself with the powers of various animals, transforming himself into a man-bat of sorts. The legend turns out to be true when Lois is kidnapped by Morpheus to lure Superman to his machine where he drains Superman of his powers. With Lois' help, Superman grabs a piece of Kryptonite to use on Morpheus, weakening him and placing him inside his own machine, whereby Superman's powers are returned to him and the machine destroyed trapping Morpheus inside.
