* An episode is spent trying to prevent crooks from misusing a scientist's new supercomputer (an "electronic brain" in those days) to deduce Superman's secret identity. After they've been stopped, the scientist (played by Sterling Holloway) is alone with the machine and realizes he wants to know the answer himself, so he asks it. Its answer is a strip of ticker tape that says, "[[SnarkyInanimateObject Wouldn't you like to know!]]"
* "[[Recap/TheAdventuresOfSupermanS6E4TheMysteriousCube The Mysterious Cube]]":
** A reporter's skill with words doesn't keep Perry from putting his foot in his mouth while explaining Barton's resistance to isolation-induced madness:
--->'''Perry White''': That's because you don't think like a criminal, Kent!
--->'''Jimmy Olsen''' ''[grinning]'': And [[MeanBoss you]] do?
--->'''Perry White''': Of course! ... [[ThatCameOutWrong I mean]], I understand criminal psychology!
** The villain's brother and henchman discuss [[IHaveYourWife kidnapping Lois and Jimmy]] to keep Superman out:
--->'''Steve Barton''': [[TroubleEntendre We need to get some insurance [against Superman's interference].]]
--->'''Jody''': [[EntendreFailure Do they sell that kind of stuff?]]
* In "[[Recap/TheAdventuresOfSupermanS2E6TheDefeatOfSuperman The Defeat of Superman]]", a moment at the hero's expense:
-->'''Jimmy''' ''(referring to the block in the room)'': They called it {{Kryptonite|Factor}}.
-->'''Superman''': I don't care what they call it.
-->''He walks up to the door and hits it, to no effect.''
-->'''Superman''': Did you say Kryptonite?
* "The Big Freeze": A FreezeRay turns Superman's hair, skin, and costume a permanent icy white. How does Clark Kent hide this? He sneaks into Lois Lane's office and helps himself to her make-up.
* Lois spraying the room with a machine gun in "Jimmy Olsen, Boy Editor." Yes, it's awesome, but it's also hilarious because it's, well, '''Lois Lane''' ''spraying the room with a machine gun!'' The looks on the villains' faces seem only half horror at the prospect of being shot and half "What the hell am I seeing?!", as if they can't believe she actually did it.
* In "The Mind Machine," Clark Kent and the Scientist of the Week are in a plane together and manage to locate the villain's hideout. When Clark phones the information in, he learns the plan that will kill Lois is going down right at that moment, much earlier than he expected.
-->'''Dr. Hadley:''' Good heavens! What'll we do?
-->'''Clark:''' I'm afraid there's only one thing to do... [[LookBehindYou Look!]] ''(points, then knocks the guy out when he turns to look)''
* In "The Secret of Superman," the SecretChaser of a villain considers it a strong possibility that Superman would be the ultimate disguise if he was actually... a [[SweetPollyOliver woman]]. Lois Lane, in fact!
* The scene in "Semi-Private Eye" where Lois tries to prove that Clark is Superman by planting a phone book hollowed out and filled with weights on his desk. Clark, naturally, spots the trick and swaps the book with his own before she comes back.
-->'''Lois:''' Oh, Clark, I need to look up a number, would you hand me the book, please?
-->'''Clark:''' Why, certainly, Miss Lane, here ya' go.
-->''(He '''tosses''' it at her, freaking her out until it lands in her lap and she realizes its harmless.)''
-->'''Clark:''' ''(innocently)'' Something the matter?
-->'''Lois:''' Nothing. Not a thing. Come on, Jim, let's go.
-->'''Clark:''' Oh, Miss Lane... aren't you going to call your number?
-->'''Lois:''' ''(fuming)'' Never mind. Thank you, ''Mr. Kent.''
-->'''Clark:''' ''(grinning ear to ear)'' You're ''welcome'', Miss Lane.
* "[[Recap/TheAdventuresOfSupermanStampDayForSuperman Stamp Day for Superman]]":
** Worried about Lois when she fails to turn up at the school, Clark calls Perry to ask if he's seen her. Perry snaps that he spends half his life trying to keep track of one or other of his three reporters and the other half regretting the first half. Clark drily says that Perry lost him during the last part.
** Blinky talks Lois into teaching him how to use a typewriter so he can keep up with his criminal friends by writing. Lois asks who's going to teach them how to read.
* There's an especially good exchange between Jimmy and Perry White in the "Clan of the Fiery Cross" serials. Perry was recently subjected to attempted intimidation by the Clan burning a cross on his lawn but he's not shaken by it. Concerned that they might do something more drastic, ([[ProperlyParanoid which they do]]) Clark wants Perry to lay low and Jimmy agrees but Perry insists on doing things his own way.
-->'''Jimmy:''' But Mr. Kent said for you not to leave the office without him!
-->'''Perry:''' "Mr. Kent said"? Is he running this newspaper, or am I?
-->'''Jimmy:''' Well, you, I guess but I--
-->'''Perry:''' ''(indignant)'' You ''guess?!''
-->'''Jimmy:''' ''(quickly backtracking)'' W-well, sure! Of course you are!
