Synopsis for "Supergirl's Jilted Boy Friends!"

Brainiac orders the Kimor Dann robot to keep being abusive to Supergirl, planning to have the robot eventually pull a scene before the Girl of Steel and blow himself up. Since Supergirl, he thinks, will blame herself for "Kim O'Ryan's" "suicide", she will have to retire. But the real Kimor Dann has made his way to Earth and taken the robot's place, and Supergirl has learned of Brainiac's plot. When Brainiac, thwarted, tries to kill Supergirl with a Kryptonite spray, she has Kimor Dann throw her the explosive device the robot was to have destroyed itself with, and uses it to blow the Kryptonite off of her. Brainiac escapes, but Supergirl takes Kimor Dann to a reformatory.
