Synopsis

When Lana brings authentic African artifacts from her father's collection for the Smallville High School Drama Club to use, she is accidentally pricked by a blow gun dart and falls asleep. Superboy must acquire the antidote within three days -- all the while convincing Prof. Lang that nothing is wrong with Lana -- or Lana will die.
