TJ goes to a scrapyard to investigate strange things that have happened there. When he arrives, he is trapped in a crushing machine by the old man, Mr. Wagner , who owns the scrap yard. Superboy saves him from being crushed to death. Lana decides to visit Mr. Wagner to learn what's going on. Wagner holds her hostage believing that she is his granddaughter Lena. His mind travels back to the days of World War II, when he was in a Nazi concentration camp, as he tries to protect his ""granddaughter"" from the Nazis, who are actually TJ and Clark returning to check on Lana. Wagner uses the scrap yard machinery against them and seemingly kills Clark. But Clark, as Superboy, barely saves Tj from a trap and frees Lana from Mr. Wagner. Wagner suffers a heart attack but survives and is finally free from the haunting memories of World War II.
