Batgirl spends a night taking down criminals in Gotham City, but she can't sleep. The news reports that the terrorist she captured in Florida, Black Wind, has escaped from custody. Oracle
suggests that Batgirl do something about her insomnia. Batgirl goes on
patrol and reads the body language of everyone she sees. Gotham is
filled with different kinds of relationships, and they make her feel
lonely. She sees a train going to Smallville, and decides to ride it on a whim. Batgirl arrives at the Kent Farm and sneaks in through Superboy's
window. Superboy is happy to see her, but confused by how she figured
out his secret identity. Batgirl simply says that she is a detective.
They are about to kiss when Ma Kent
knocks on the door. Batgirl hides under the bed while Superboy gets rid
of his mother. Superboy carries Batgirl into the clouds, where he uses
telekinesis to make a romantic castle they can walk through. Superboy
starts babbling nervously as Batgirl tries to kiss him again. They are
interrupted a second time when a plane bursts through the clouds.
Superboy takes Batgirl down to the top of a very tall rock, where they
try to kiss under the moonlight.
They are interrupted by a giant slug monster that crashes to the ground
right next to them. Superboy is incredulous at his bad luck. The
creature uses Superboy's telekinesis against him, and he can't control
his own body. Kitty Faulkner of S.T.A.R. Labs
sends him a message that the creature escaped their holding cells. It
is a telepath that invades the minds of other psychics, and is
constantly swarming with smaller creatures. Batgirl punches the creature
in the face, and it goes down quickly. Superboy is amazed, but Batgirl
explains that the creature was fragile. It was acting out because it was
lonely, and wanted a friend. Batgirl asks Superboy to take her home, as she no longer wishes
to have a romantic night. Superboy admits that he was terrified of
kissing her. They both agree to be friends, and they share one kiss
anyway. Superboy carries Batgirl back to Gotham. He asks her how she
actually tracked him down to Smallville. Batgirl reminds him that he
mentioned "Smallville" and "Kent Farm" while giving her his phone
number. Superboy laments that he cannot get the hang of having a secret
identity.
