Metropolis is an America city and home of the superhero Superman and his pet dog Krypto. Krypto chased a pigeon around Metropolis after it insulted him. He ended up slicing up the Daily Planet globe with heat vision, freezing a tree, knocked a painter's can on a bus, and nearly causing a tragedy at the Queensland Bridge. Krypto saved a school bus before it fell off the edge of the bridge then flew it to Metropolis Elementary. As the bus left, the pigeon blew a raspberry at Krypto.
On Halloween night, Clark Kent dressed up as Frankenstein's Monster and handed out candy outside his apartment building. He realized he was running low and left the bowl with Krypto, who was dressed as a hot dog. Krypto, instead, chased after a black cat. He flew through three boys' bags of candy. The cat popped its head out of the ground at someone's cemetery display. Krypto eventually dug a giant hole and got dirt all over some children. An earthworm ate a piece of candy. The cat exited the prop coffin and scaled up a building fire escape. Krypto fired heat vision but missed over and over hitting someone's TV, a woman's jack-o-lantern, and clipped the tail and butt off a person's dinosaur costume. The cat walked across a clothesline. Krypto charged but got all tangled up in it. From the edge of a roof, the cat cut the line and Krypto ended up in a dumpster. He came upon a motion-activated skeleton. He removed a bone but the whole thing collapsed. He floated up with the skull on his head and accidentally spooked some children.
Krypto found the cat in a curbside storm drain and opted to use his super breath. Instead, sewage erupted all over the street and children. The cat was in mid-air atop a manhole cover. It landed on top of the Daily Planet's globe. The cat launched the cover into Krypto's face and dove. They tussled but Krypto was unable to catch the cat. It landed on a perch outside someone's window while Krypto crashed into the middle of the street and left a huge crater. He felt bad seeing all the children crying and used his super senses to locate a big rig truck filled with candy. He carried off the semi-trailer and rained candy on the happy children. Once emptied out, Krypto tossed the semi-trailer back onto the big rig. Clark Kent returned but was perplexed by the street being full of candy. The cat taunted Krypto with a bone and the chase resumed. The big rig truck driver gave Kent an invoice for all the candy, costing $7,452.16. Kent's Frankenstein bolts popped out.
During the Christmas season, Clark Kent mailed out letters. Krypto got his tongue stuck on a pole and had to use heat vision. He saw a postal worker and used X-ray vision and his mail bag. He saw a T-bone steak and gave chase. The worker pretended to be a life size nutcracker statue outside the Ye Olde Nutcracker Outlet. Krypto searched. The worker pointed to one of the statues and Krypto wrecked it. The worker made it back to his mail truck and drove away. Krypto flew after him. He braked. Krypto crashed into a snowman made by three children. Krypto tried to force the mail truck to stop but the worker gunned it. He lost several packages in the process. Krypto was bowled over into a giant ornament display, disrupting a couple's selfie. One of the ornaments crashed into a senior citizen's home. Krypto caught up to and landed on the mail truck and cut a hole in the roof with heat vision.
The worker sprayed him with Pooch Away Pepper Spray. He got stuck in a hanging wreath and launched past a giant Temple menorah, blowing out its flames, and knocked over a giant Christmas tree which fell over on an outdoor skating rink and ruined it. All the people gathered at the rink and glared at Krypto. He put the tree back up, melted down the rink, re-froze the rink, made a giant snowman, and restored the ornament display with ones from Oversized Ornaments Outlet. He returned to Clinton Street and saw a postal worker deliver a package to Clark. The worker saw Krypto and ran away. The package was Clark's gift to Krypto, a T-Bone of the Month. He threw it up into the air. Krypto flew up and heated it with his heat vision then ate it. He saw Santa Claus and flew after him.
Superman and Supergirl played fetch with Krypto in a park in Metropolis until they left mid-game to deal with a giant monster. They kept it at bay with their heat vision. Krypto didn't see them leave and was sad. In his office at LuthorCorp, Lex Luthor built a robot dog he called A.R.F. (or Autonomous Robot Fido) and taught it anyone with a S shield was a threat that needed to be eliminated. He scolded A.R.F. for taking a ball off his desk during the presentation. He was distracted with a fire caused by his Monkey Bots in another room. A.R.F. spotted Krypto in the park down below and attacked him with his Kryptonite laser but missed and hit a squirrel instead. Krypto thought they were playing tic tac toe until A.R.F. burnt his tail. Krypto used freeze breath on his tail. A.R.F. noticed Krypto's ball and glitched, accepting Krypto as a friend. Engineer did some grilling in the park and turned one her hands into a pair of tongs. Krypto and A.R.F. sneaked into her cooler and took hot dogs for themselves behind her back. They used their lasers to heat their own hot dogs.
Krypto used the bathroom. A.R.F. tried, too, but ended up chopping the tree with a red laser. Lobo was riding through Metropolis when A.R.F. used its magnet tail to catch his bike. Krypto clamped the front of his bike and tossed him around. He ended in an elderly woman's apartment. He tried knitting. Krypto and A.R.F. howled at a moon on a Sleep Labs billboard. They dug around Metamorpho and Joey Mason's picnic, making a trench in the shape of a heart. Once the fire was out, Luthor saw A.R.F. down in the park playing with Krypto. He floated down using the rocket propulsion feature in his dress shoes then popped Krypto's ball. Krypto burnt his butt with heat vision, froze him, dug dirt on him, and chased him around. A.R.F. was conflicted but decided Luthor was a threat, not a friend. Together, they mashed him into the shape of a ball. He was tossed up into the air by A.R.F. then kicked by Krypto through a Sleep Labs billboard into the same elderly woman's apartment. The woman was annoyed, as Lobo previously crashed into her apartment, and slapped Luthor's head. Superman and Supergirl were later joined by Krypto and his new friend A.R.F. against the monster.
