1. (Lois)
'What's the holdup?'
Copy !req
2. You've been cooking
for 15 seconds
Copy !req
3. and dinner's
not ready yet?
Copy !req
4. Give me eight
more seconds.
Copy !req
5. I promise you, it will
be worth the wait.
Copy !req
6. Well, take ten. I'm in
the mood for dessert.
Copy !req
7. (male #1)
'Delivery for Kent.'
Copy !req
8. Oh. Wow. What is this?
Come on in.
Copy !req
9. Uh, just put
it
anywhere.
Copy !req
10. Oh.
Copy !req
11. - There you go.
- There you go.
Copy !req
12. - Thanks.
- Thank you, ma'am.
Copy !req
13. Hey, honey,
who was at the..
Copy !req
14. Honey... is this your way of
telling me we can have a baby?
Copy !req
15. (guard)
'Open the gates.'
Copy !req
16. Well, I guess this
is adios, Dr.
Mensa.
Copy !req
17. Hope this early parole
doesn't go to your,
uh... head.
Copy !req
18. Sorry.
Copy !req
19. Hey, I know we had our share of
run-ins while you were inside
Copy !req
20. but, uh... no hard
feelings, huh?
Copy !req
21. You know, you
really
are a fat-head!
Copy !req
22. No! Aah!
Copy !req
23. Don't call me Fat Head.
Copy !req
24. Yours? This was
your bassinet?
Copy !req
25. Yeah, but I didn't
have it sent here.
Copy !req
26. I mean, I haven't even
spoken to Dr. Klein yet.
Copy !req
27. - Maybe my mom and dad..
- When?
Copy !req
28. They've been in
Metropolis for a
week.
Copy !req
29. Well, that's them.
You can ask them yourself.
Copy !req
30. - Hi.
- Hi.
Copy !req
31. Sorry. We forgot the key.
Copy !req
32. We haven't kept you
from dinner, have we?
Copy !req
33. No, no, no.
Copy !req
34. We've had other
things to keep us busy.
Copy !req
35. - Oh, it got here.
- So you did send it.
Copy !req
36. Well, with all this talk
of babies in the air
Copy !req
37. we called home and had our
hired
hand send it as a surprise.
Copy !req
38. If we were being
a little—
Copy !req
39. Presumptuous. But the idea of
having a grandchild is just
so—
Copy !req
40. Exciting. We
wanted
to help you get..
Copy !req
41. Started and
show you some—
Copy !req
42. Shortcuts and
pitch in
like—
Copy !req
43. - Family, if that's..
- Okay?
Copy !req
44. - Yes.
- Of course it is.
Copy !req
45. I can't imagine a better
set of parental experts
Copy !req
46. than the people
that raised my husband.
Copy !req
47. Oh. We did do
a pretty good job, huh?
Copy !req
48. That's why I'm so
anxious
to hear from Dr. Klein.
Copy !req
49. The world needs
another Clark
Kent.
Copy !req
50. (dispatcher)
Guard down at Metropolis
federal penitentiary.
Copy !req
51. Trouble at
the penitentiary.
Copy !req
52. (Superman)
Who did this?
Copy !req
53. Apparently, no one. The
gate came down on its own.
Copy !req
54. - How is that possible?
- We didn't think it was.
Copy !req
55. Brakes have got to be taken
off.
That big lever thrown.
Copy !req
56. And no one touched them?
Copy !req
57. The tower guard
saw it happen.
Copy !req
58. The machinery moved like
it had a mind of its own.
Copy !req
59. I never did
like
Andy
Williams.
Copy !req
60. M-Mensa.
Copy !req
61. W-what are you doing here?
I thought you were in prison.
Copy !req
62. I'm
rehabilitated,
or so they say.
Copy !req
63. I've repented
of my schemes.
Copy !req
64. Knock over Fort Knox and
the Bank of England and..
Copy !req
65. Merv Griffin's
beach house
Copy !req
66. or so they say.
Copy !req
67. How did you get in here?
The door was locked.
Copy !req
68. I thought it open.
Copy !req
69. I could've thought my
way
out of that prison, too
Copy !req
70. but I didn't want to reveal
my secret and ruin my plans.
Copy !req
71. What plans?
Copy !req
72. The plan to take revenge
on those who betrayed me.
Copy !req
73. Y-you told us, you told us
the goal of Dynomonics
Copy !req
74. was to gather the best
and the brightest.
Copy !req
75. Develop our mental
abilities to the maximum
Copy !req
76. and, together,
achieve greatness.
Copy !req
77. Precisely.
Copy !req
78. What you really wanted was
to pull off criminal feats
Copy !req
79. no one had ever
done before.
Copy !req
80. None of you had
a problem with that
Copy !req
81. until they seized my weapons
and
plans and threw me into jail.
Copy !req
82. That was because
we were under your spell.
Copy !req
83. And not one of my trusted
inner circle came to my
defense.
Copy !req
84. Is it my imagination,
or is your head bigger?
Copy !req
85. Did you know the average human
uses less than 10% of his
brain?
Copy !req
86. I use 98.6% of mine.
Copy !req
87. Is that why they
call you Fat Head?
Copy !req
88. - I hate that name.
- Oh.
Copy !req
89. I spent five
years
in solitary
Copy !req
90. using Dynomonics to
develop
my brain to the ultimate.
Copy !req
91. Why?
Copy !req
92. Because I knew
one day I'd be
out
Copy !req
93. ready to start
over
right where I left
off
Copy !req
94. but, this time, alone.
Copy !req
95. Wha—
Copy !req
96. What-what's going on?
What are you doing?
Copy !req
97. Thinking.
Copy !req
98. A mind is a terrible
thing to waste.
Copy !req
99. - Thanks for lunch, honey.
- Oh, sure.
Copy !req
100. Now that you've a lab space
here
we should do it more often.
Copy !req
101. Ah.
Copy !req
102. Um, listen, about this
reconciliation between
Copy !req
103. you and me and, uh,
you and mother..
Copy !req
104. Um, I was just.. Oh,
gosh,
how do I say this? Um..
Copy !req
105. I-I was
just... hoping
that you won't—
Copy !req
106. Blow it?
Copy !req
107. Yeah, me, too. Family skills
are uncharted waters.
Copy !req
108. Maybe for
all three of us,
huh?
Copy !req
109. Look, I got to get going.
Copy !req
110. This project could put me
on the scientific map.
Copy !req
111. - Really?
- Mmm.
Copy !req
112. If Vanna White does
the infomercial. Ka-ching!
Copy !req
113. Go get 'em, daddy.
Copy !req
114. You know, it doesn't matter
how much money you have
Copy !req
115. when your time is up,
it's up.
Copy !req
116. - Fortune cookie?
- Carter Clavens.
Copy !req
117. Rich, powerful,
healthy, dead.
Copy !req
118. Fell 30 stories, plop.
Copy !req
119. - Suicide?
- Exercycle.
Copy !req
120. Bike went right out
the window with him on it.
Copy !req
121. - How?
- By itself.
Copy !req
122. By itself?
Copy !req
123. The cops said that it was
like the bike had a mind
Copy !req
124. of its own or something.
Copy !req
125. That's what the
guard
told Superman
Copy !req
126. about the prison
gates,
isn't it?
Copy !req
127. Jimmy, see if you can
find any other
connection
Copy !req
128. between the
two deaths,
okay?
Copy !req
129. Got it.
Copy !req
130. Can we... talk?
Privately?
Copy !req
131. I just, uh, came
back from S.T.A.R. Labs.
Copy !req
132. Really?
Copy !req
133. Well, you could've
just called me.
Copy !req
134. What did Dr. Klein say?
Copy !req
135. Oh, you..
Copy !req
136. You couldn't
just call me..
Copy !req
137. because the, uh, the news..
Copy !req
138. The news isn't good.
Copy !req
139. Dr. Klein ran every
possible test he
could.
Copy !req
140. Poor guy could
barely
even face me.
Copy !req
141. But... he told me
that Superman's
biology
Copy !req
142. and an Earth woman's are
incompatible for
reproduction.
Copy !req
143. Ohh..
Copy !req
144. I told myself I'd never
make you cry. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
145. I feel so confused.
Copy !req
146. I feel like I.. I feel like
I lost something I never had.
Copy !req
147. We haven't lost anything, honey.
Copy !req
148. Look, you can't try
and make me feel better.
Copy !req
149. I mean, that's what you
always do with everything
Copy !req
150. and it's sweet, but I know how
much you wanted to have kids.
Copy !req
151. Lois, I want you to hear
me,
okay? Really hear me.
Copy !req
152. Every time, every
time
we make love..
Copy !req
153. we make love.
Copy !req
154. That's the strongest
life force there is.
Copy !req
155. And whether or not that
results
in another little person..
Copy !req
156. and for me,
it is creation.
Copy !req
157. Oh, Clark.
Copy !req
158. You fill me with life.
Copy !req
159. Caught me.
Copy !req
160. I came down
for a glass of
milk
Copy !req
161. and I just... sort of
noticed this sitting
here.
Copy !req
162. I know.
Copy !req
163. Clark, you know how I get
when I want to fix something?
Copy !req
164. Well... first,
you eat a lot of chocolate
Copy !req
165. while you figure out
your next move.
Copy !req
166. Check.
Copy !req
167. Then, you get..
Copy !req
168. that real determined
look on your face.
Copy !req
169. Sort of like you
got right now.
Copy !req
170. And then, the seas... part.
Copy !req
171. Listen.
Copy !req
172. We have come through almost
every conceivable disaster
Copy !req
173. usually by
inconceivable means.
Copy !req
174. And if conceiving
is what we want
Copy !req
175. I think we're going to have
to be fearless once again.
Copy !req
176. There's a man, a medical doctor
who's practiced his craft
Copy !req
177. over the years on the
cutting edge of science.
Copy !req
178. He's explored some
fairly esoteric areas.
Copy !req
179. In fact,
he treated you once.
Copy !req
180. - He did?
- Saved your life.
Copy !req
181. He saved my..
Copy !req
182. Wait a minute, honey.
Copy !req
183. - Your father?
- I know.
Copy !req
184. The scam artist,
the dreamer.
Copy !req
185. There are things that
he would have to know.
Copy !req
186. You're right.
We'd have to tell him.
Copy !req
187. We'd have to
tell him everything.
Copy !req
188. - Hello?
- Mother?
Copy !req
189. Oh, hi, baby.
Copy !req
190. I just got into town,
and I dropped by this, uh..
Copy !req
191. this rat hole that your
father's
working in to surprise him.
Copy !req
192. Uh, you sound
surprised, too.
Copy !req
193. Listen, mom, it's great
to hear your voice
Copy !req
194. and it's not that I don't
want to talk to you
Copy !req
195. but, um, could
I speak to daddy?
Copy !req
196. Yeah, of course,
sweetheart.
Copy !req
197. Don't think for a minute
that I'm hurt.
Copy !req
198. - Sam?
- Huh?
Copy !req
199. - Your daughter.
- Ah.
Copy !req
200. Mother,
we'll
have lunch.
Copy !req
201. Ah. Ellen,
you'll have
lunch.
Copy !req
202. Yeah, please, please.
I'm fine. I'm fine.
Copy !req
203. - Uh, she's fine.
- I know, I heard.
Copy !req
204. Um... listen, daddy,
I was, uh, wondering
Copy !req
205. if you could come by for
coffee tomorrow morning.
Copy !req
206. Sure. What's going on?
Copy !req
207. I, uh, I've never met one
of Sam's partners before.
Copy !req
208. Lots of times, they were
locked up before I could.
Copy !req
209. Um... this is nice, Mickey.
Copy !req
210. Misha.
Name is Misha.
Copy !req
211. Uh, I didn't
visit
his lab much
Copy !req
212. when he was doing those crackpot
get-rich-quick schemes.
Copy !req
213. So... what are you
two working on?
Copy !req
214. - Breasts in a bottle.
- Excuse me?
Copy !req
215. Breasts in a bottle. Fabulous
full-figured fun in a pill.
Copy !req
216. So far, works only on mice.
Copy !req
217. - Ah, what is this?
- It's called, "Bummer Be
Gone."
Copy !req
218. Eliminates all painful
memories from brain.
Copy !req
219. Really? Ah.
Copy !req
220. (Lois)
Mom likes to sleep in.
Copy !req
221. Maybe you just shouldn't
even bother waking her up.
Copy !req
222. Uh... why don't you just not
mention it to her at all?
Copy !req
223. Ah, I get it,
delicate issue.
Copy !req
224. Alright. Sure. Right.
Hey, see you.
Copy !req
225. (Misha)
'No, no, please, Mrs. Lane,
I beg of you. No. Please.'
Copy !req
226. - Let her rip, doc.
- Sam.
Copy !req
227. For God's
sake,
be careful.
Copy !req
228. That thing hasn't been
perfected
yet. It could be dangerous.
Copy !req
229. And years of repressed
trauma aren't?
Copy !req
230. Honey, let me take
you
out to dinner
Copy !req
231. see what I can do to
erase
those painful memories.
Copy !req
232. Alright, Sam.
You're on.
Copy !req
233. I think Clark's
secret is safe.
Copy !req
234. My dad will be the only
other person who knows.
Copy !req
235. Mother?
Copy !req
236. I wish you wouldn't sound
so shocked when you say that.
Copy !req
237. Ohh... I'm such a
slug in the morning
Copy !req
238. but I woke up this morning
feeling just glad to be
alive.
Copy !req
239. Maybe because I had such
a good time last night.
Copy !req
240. Oh, daddy, how nice.
Copy !req
241. Well... uh... Sam.
Copy !req
242. Do you want to maybe
go on into the kitchen
Copy !req
243. so we can ask you about, uh,
th-that stuff for the story?
Copy !req
244. Oh, I would love
to hear about it.
Copy !req
245. No, no.
Copy !req
246. Ellen, I've got some
coffee and some pastries.
Copy !req
247. It's just a lot of
dry technical stuff.
Copy !req
248. It really isn't very
interesting at all.
Copy !req
249. Uh, sorry about
your mother, honey
Copy !req
250. but she nabbed me
just as I was leaving
Copy !req
251. and since I'm trying
to rebuild our relationship
Copy !req
252. ditching her seemed
to be a bad idea.
Copy !req
253. Are-are you alright?
Copy !req
254. Sam... you've done
medical research
Copy !req
255. in a lot of different
fields, right?
Copy !req
256. Yeah.
Copy !req
257. How about the
field
of infertility?
Copy !req
258. Infertility?
Copy !req
259. Wha..
You-you two are trying to..
Copy !req
260. Really? Oh,
that's wonderful.
Copy !req
261. Well, uh, yeah, um, but,
see, uh, the thing is—
Copy !req
262. Oh. If you guys are having
trouble getting pregnant
Copy !req
263. there are a lot of experts
more qualified than me.
Copy !req
264. Not necessarily.
Copy !req
265. You see, we've got, uh,
an added, uh, challenge.
Copy !req
266. Daddy... telling you
this next thing is..
Copy !req
267. Well, it's one of the toughest
decisions we've ever made.
Copy !req
268. This is something that
has to be kept secret,
Sam.
Copy !req
269. (Lois)
'Unfortunately,
even from mother.'
Copy !req
270. It's a dangerous secret
and only those that have
Copy !req
271. to know have to know.
Copy !req
272. Ah, a secret from mother?
That's easy.
Copy !req
273. Uh... honey?
Copy !req
274. Oh, jeez.
Copy !req
275. What you just did there, that
that-that's humanly
impossible.
Copy !req
276. Exactly.
Copy !req
277. Mensa... or is
it Fat Head
now?
Copy !req
278. Don't call me Fat Head!
Copy !req
279. No! Stop it! Please! Help!
Copy !req
280. You could've been
the commissar of science
Copy !req
281. in my Dynomonics empire!
Copy !req
282. Then I would've had to have
killed thousands of people
Copy !req
283. blown up thousands of
buildings.
I could not live with that.
Copy !req
284. Ah. And double-crossing me, you
think you can live with that?
Copy !req
285. No, please, you must
listen to what I'm
saying.
Copy !req
286. How do you say
"So long, loser" in Russki?
Copy !req
287. If Misha dies,
secret dies with
him.
Copy !req
288. Secret? What secret?
Copy !req
289. Secret of giving you
power
you always dream of.
Copy !req
290. With what?
"Breasts in a bottle?"
Copy !req
291. Weapon.. Secret weapon
you once begged me to
create.
Copy !req
292. You did it?
Copy !req
293. Are you telling me you've
actually built the gizmo?
Copy !req
294. Yes, yes.
Copy !req
295. An amplifier
that will harvest
Copy !req
296. Fat Head's superior
mental
ability
Copy !req
297. multiply it
a thousandfold
Copy !req
298. and make you able to-to bend
anyone or anything to your
will.
Copy !req
299. Well... don't just stand there,
you quivering, craven coward.
Copy !req
300. Trot it out.
Copy !req
301. - Is not perfected yet.
- Not perfected?
Copy !req
302. Uh, a little fine-tuning.
Needs a little fine-tuning.
Copy !req
303. Then, perfected very soon.
Copy !req
304. You have until
tomorrow morning.
Copy !req
305. And don't even think about
running out on me.
Copy !req
306. I've got eyes
and ears everywhere.
Copy !req
307. More importantly..
Copy !req
308. I got a brain.
Copy !req
309. Sam?
Copy !req
310. 'You look like
you're in shock.'
Copy !req
311. I'm fine, fine, fine.
Copy !req
312. Huh. Alright, if you say so,
but it's almost as if you
Copy !req
313. weren't helping them
on a story at all
Copy !req
314. but hearing some
Earth-shattering news instead.
Copy !req
315. That's not it,
of course.
Copy !req
316. No, no, no.
Uh, we should be going.
Copy !req
317. Yes, we should.
Copy !req
318. You know, this sounds
so ridiculous
Copy !req
319. but I have
this crazy feeling
Copy !req
320. that everybody here
knows something I don't.
Copy !req
321. Oh, mother, what would
we know that you don't?
Copy !req
322. You're right.
I'm being
silly.
Copy !req
323. - Are you dying?
- No.
Copy !req
324. Oh, well, that's great.
Copy !req
325. 'Oh, Martha, don't forget'
Copy !req
326. 'to give me the recipe
for the popovers.'
Copy !req
327. - Oh, do you bake?
- No, not really.
Copy !req
328. Sam, I'll get Superman's files
Copy !req
329. from S.T.A.R. Labs
as soon as I can.
Copy !req
330. And, uh, thank you.
Copy !req
331. - Hmm.
- Ohh. Sam.
Copy !req
332. Sam, are you coming?
Copy !req
333. Or do you have some more secret
stuff to discuss with Clark?
Copy !req
334. Oh, my God. In a few hours,
he's going to be here.
Copy !req
335. - Sam. Sam?
- Not now, Misha.
Copy !req
336. I'm up to my knees
in Shinola here.
Copy !req
337. This morning, I have
to deliver a machine
Copy !req
338. that will super-enhance
the brain's energy.
Copy !req
339. I didn't know
such a thing existed.
Copy !req
340. It doesn't.
Copy !req
341. Ah. These figures
can't be right.
Copy !req
342. You've got
to help me,
Sam.
Copy !req
343. What the hell are you
working on over there?
Copy !req
344. Ah, it's a little
project of mine.
Copy !req
345. It's nothing important.
Copy !req
346. You wouldn't be holding out
on me, Sam, would you?
Copy !req
347. I'm in real trouble.
Copy !req
348. If you've got
something there
Copy !req
349. that can help
buy me some time..
Copy !req
350. No, no, no,
I don't think so.
Copy !req
351. Well..
Copy !req
352. Sam, I'm going to have
a cup of coffee.
Copy !req
353. You want one?
Copy !req
354. - Oh, coffee, yeah, thanks.
- No problem, partner.
Copy !req
355. Anything for you,
partner.
Copy !req
356. You're going to tell me
your secret, Sam. All of
them.
Copy !req
357. It's a new dawn, unsleuthable
crimes untraceable to me.
Copy !req
358. (male #2)
'Hey, hey, wait a minute!'
Copy !req
359. 'What's happening?'
Copy !req
360. Wow, where's the challenge?
Copy !req
361. Now we rendezvous at my place.
Follow that car.
Copy !req
362. I can't stop!
I can't!
Copy !req
363. Stop! Look out!
Copy !req
364. Hey!
Copy !req
365. Move! Move!
Copy !req
366. 'Look out! Look out!'
Copy !req
367. 'Oh, my God.'
Copy !req
368. - Are you alright, sir?
- It wasn't me, Superman.
Copy !req
369. The car just drove itself.
Copy !req
370. Him. I heard about him
the whole time I was in
prison.
Copy !req
371. Superman.
Copy !req
372. Okay, this one
is pretty strange.
Copy !req
373. First, the guard gets
knocked down by his own gun
Copy !req
374. then the armored
car takes off
Copy !req
375. and the driver said
it was driving itself.
Copy !req
376. Like the exercise bike
moved by itself
Copy !req
377. or the prison gate
moved by itself.
Copy !req
378. Just as Klaus Mensa
was released.
Copy !req
379. Oh, by the way, I found
out that Klaus Mensa
Copy !req
380. started this cult
called Dynomonics.
Copy !req
381. They believed
anything can be achieved
Copy !req
382. with advanced
mental techniques.
Copy !req
383. I'm going to try
my father again.
Copy !req
384. I don't know why
he's not answering.
Copy !req
385. - Good morning.
- Mother?
Copy !req
386. - Am I interrupting anything?
- No.
Copy !req
387. (Sam on answering machine)
'Hi, this is Sam Lane. I'm
not
in right now, so if you'll..'
Copy !req
388. - Calling your father?
- No. Yes, uh, just to say
hi.
Copy !req
389. Do you know he said
he couldn't see me last night?
Copy !req
390. - He was working.
- Oh.
Copy !req
391. - He said he's working for
you.
- He did?
Copy !req
392. On that story
that you're doing.
Copy !req
393. Oh, yes, right.
Yeah.
Copy !req
394. Clark, look, mother.
Copy !req
395. Oh, hi, Ellen.
Copy !req
396. Um, Sam's busy
so I thought maybe
Copy !req
397. I could steal Lois
here for lunch.
Copy !req
398. Well, I'd love to.
Copy !req
399. (Jimmy)
'Lois, Clark,
I forgot to tell you.'
Copy !req
400. Miss Bailey's on her
way over here for—
Copy !req
401. Uh, Jimmy.
Copy !req
402. I just, I can't believe you
guys were thinking about—
Copy !req
403. - It's for a story, Jimmy.
- Yeah, here.
Copy !req
404. Well, looks like I'm not
available. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
405. - How about dinner tonight?
- Yeah, that'd be fine.
Copy !req
406. Uh, honey... if you were
dying,
I'd know, wouldn't I?
Copy !req
407. Yes.
Copy !req
408. Before a lot of
other people, I
mean.
Copy !req
409. You would be at the top
of... my death notification
list.
Copy !req
410. Oh. Thank you,
sweetheart.
You'll see.
Copy !req
411. It's the little things
that
count when you're a mom.
Copy !req
412. Oh, Sam, for the last time,
what are you working on?
Copy !req
413. - What is the secret project?
- I'm-I'm..
Copy !req
414. Ohh. Stubborn old fool.
We're running out of time!
Copy !req
415. I'm trying... to
help... my daughter.
Copy !req
416. I don't know how much more
of this you can take.
Copy !req
417. I'm trying to
help my daughter.
Copy !req
418. She's-she's... married..
Copy !req
419. to Superman.
Copy !req
420. Clark Kent?
Copy !req
421. I'm not having a good morning!
Where's my machine?
Copy !req
422. Not quite perfected yet,
unfortunately.
Copy !req
423. What did you say?
Copy !req
424. But I have some information
you might like just as much.
Copy !req
425. (Ms. Bailey)
'Well, well, well.'
Copy !req
426. Well, well, well,
well, well. Hmm-hmm.
Copy !req
427. Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm,
hmm, hmm, hmmm.
Copy !req
428. You know, we almost forgot
Copy !req
429. that we even made this
appointment, Miss
Bailey.
Copy !req
430. When we started talking
about having kids
Copy !req
431. we thought we'd explore
all of our options.
Copy !req
432. And we didn't know much
about the adoption process.
Copy !req
433. Mm-hmm. You know, our
task at county adoption
Copy !req
434. isn't just finding the
right child for a parent.
Copy !req
435. It's finding the right
parent for our children.
Copy !req
436. I've started a preliminary
work-up on the two of you
Copy !req
437. to get an idea
of your suitability.
Copy !req
438. - You have?
- Well, it wasn't
difficult.
Copy !req
439. You are, after all, two of
our most prominent citizens.
Copy !req
440. Oh, I don't know if
I'd say most
prominent.
Copy !req
441. Don't be modest,
Ms. Lane.
Copy !req
442. Your contributions to the city
couldn't be overestimated.
Copy !req
443. Well, you
know,
we try.
Copy !req
444. Which, uh, brings me
to the problem.
Copy !req
445. Problem?
Copy !req
446. Uh, Mr. Kent, you are
a model of propriety.
Copy !req
447. You do your job,
you make an excellent income.
Copy !req
448. You shun the spotlight.
Copy !req
449. Out of a possible 100 points,
I gave you 97.
Copy !req
450. - Oh, well, thank you.
- What did I get?
Copy !req
451. Something lower.
Copy !req
452. Miss Lane, on almost
a weekly basis
Copy !req
453. you manage to dangle
above the jaws of death.
Copy !req
454. I dangle above
the jaws of
death?
Copy !req
455. Like an hors d'oeurve. Usually
in situations so terrifying
Copy !req
456. you require rescue
by Superman.
Copy !req
457. But-but it's not like
she's
looking for the jaws of
death.
Copy !req
458. Yeah, I
can't
help it.
Copy !req
459. That's what
I'm talking about.
Copy !req
460. You may be what we in psychology
call a thrill addict.
Copy !req
461. What?
Copy !req
462. Someone who places
oneself in danger
Copy !req
463. to satisfy some
subliminal need.
Copy !req
464. On the face of it, I'd say you
have an obsession with Superman.
Copy !req
465. Oh!
Copy !req
466. I-I do not.
Copy !req
467. Nineteen.
Copy !req
468. You gave him a 97,
and you gave me a 19?
Copy !req
469. And that includes five
points
for being a U.S. Citizen.
Copy !req
470. Miss Bailey, my wife
is a complete professional.
Copy !req
471. Someone who cares very,
very much about this world.
Copy !req
472. Frankly, she's, she's
the best person that I know.
Copy !req
473. Now, any child who is lucky
to have Lois as their mother
Copy !req
474. will be the luckiest
child alive.
Copy !req
475. 'Well, that may be, Mr. Kent.'
Copy !req
476. And these work-ups
are preliminary
Copy !req
477. but at this point,
I certainly couldn't recommend
Copy !req
478. placing a child
in your home.
Copy !req
479. - Ellen! Hi.
- You free for lunch?
Copy !req
480. You may be the only
person I know who is.
Copy !req
481. Not that you were
my last choice.
Copy !req
482. You seem a little blue.
Copy !req
483. I don't know. Maybe
it's just my imagination.
Copy !req
484. I just, get the impression that
everyone.. Well, not everyone.
Copy !req
485. I mean, just you and Jonathan
and Lois and Clark and Sam
Copy !req
486. know something
that I don't.
Copy !req
487. - Oh, Ellen.
- I know.
Copy !req
488. It would just make me
feel so much better
Copy !req
489. if you could just
say to me
Copy !req
490. "Ellen, may God
strike me dead
Copy !req
491. if we're keeping
something from you."
Copy !req
492. Hello? Hi!
Copy !req
493. Ah, no, dear,
he's not here.
Copy !req
494. We haven't been able
to get hold of him either.
Copy !req
495. Jonathan's gone over
to check on him. Bye.
Copy !req
496. Well, I'm sure that
was none of my
business.
Copy !req
497. Ellen, I think if you could
just
look at this objectively—
Copy !req
498. You know, you say that
Copy !req
499. like you're talking
to a healthy person.
Copy !req
500. Martha, I have as much
self-esteem as chipped
beef.
Copy !req
501. And it's starting to feel like
every single person in the
world
Copy !req
502. knows something I don't.
Copy !req
503. Oh, that's just
ridiculous.
Copy !req
504. I know a secret.
Copy !req
505. - My God, even him!
- Come on!
Copy !req
506. - What do you want?
- I want you, ladies.
Copy !req
507. - You're coming with me.
- Oh, oh!
Copy !req
508. Sam, I don't
mean to nag
Copy !req
509. but do you do any
checking
on these crackpots
Copy !req
510. before you sign
them up as
partners?
Copy !req
511. - I'm not a crackpot!
- No, dear, trust me, you
are.
Copy !req
512. Look, I thought I was free
of Fat Head years ago.
Copy !req
513. But now he's caught me between
his Fat Head and a hard place.
Copy !req
514. He'll kill me
if I don't help
him.
Copy !req
515. - Jonathan!
- Are you alright?
Copy !req
516. (Mensa)
'Just shut up!'
Copy !req
517. Well, when it comes to
Superman's nearest and dearest
Copy !req
518. I pretty much have myself
a complete set.
Copy !req
519. - What the hell does that
mean?
- Ellen!
Copy !req
520. I don't know. I think he's got
us confused with somebody else.
Copy !req
521. Don't play stupid
with me, blondie.
Copy !req
522. We all know what
I'm talking about. Don't we?
Copy !req
523. - What, even him?
- He got it from him.
Copy !req
524. Oh, it's wonderful.
Thanks a lot, Sam.
Copy !req
525. There's a shipment
of gold bullion
Copy !req
526. at the new Troy bank, awaiting
an escort to Fort Knox.
Copy !req
527. That gold is ours, Misha.
No one's gonna try to stop us.
Copy !req
528. Not even Superman,
because he knows
Copy !req
529. what will happen
if he tries. Doesn't he?
Copy !req
530. What?
Copy !req
531. Honey, she is not
the final word on this.
Copy !req
532. - Don't be sad.
- I'm not sad, I'm angry.
Copy !req
533. You know,
it's
discrimination.
Copy !req
534. What, no people with
risky jobs can have
kids?
Copy !req
535. So, I guess cops and
test pilots and trapeze
artists
Copy !req
536. can forget it, too.
Copy !req
537. And what does
she think?
Copy !req
538. Does she think
that
I'm deliberately
Copy !req
539. gonna run around sticking my
neck out after I adopt a
child?
Copy !req
540. I mean, how dumb
does she think I
am?
Copy !req
541. Ha ha. See,
this is why I love you.
Copy !req
542. 'Cause I'm crabby?
Copy !req
543. No, because
you never give up.
Copy !req
544. We'll figure something out.
Copy !req
545. And in the meantime, we'll just
have a terrific family of two.
Copy !req
546. Okay, guess which cult
Mr. Exercise Bike
Copy !req
547. was involved with.
Copy !req
548. - Dynomonics.
- Yep. Run by Klaus Mensa.
Copy !req
549. He, uh, believed the mind
was capable of anything
Copy !req
550. and he spent his life
trying to focus the power
Copy !req
551. of his whole brain.
Copy !req
552. Not just the little
that most of us use.
Copy !req
553. This is really interesting.
Copy !req
554. Alright, this is a picture taken
of him before he went to prison.
Copy !req
555. And this was taken
after he got out.
Copy !req
556. In prison, he got
the nickname Fat Head.
Copy !req
557. Wonder why, huh?
Copy !req
558. His head looks like
an over-developed muscle.
Copy !req
559. Clark, that prison guard
died
after Fat Head was
released
Copy !req
560. by a gate closing by itself.
Copy !req
561. And the exercise bike
that killed Carter
Clavens.
Copy !req
562. And the armored truck
that Superman stopped.
Copy !req
563. Have you ever seen
Yuri Geller do his
act?
Copy !req
564. He focuses his
mind
on a fork.
Copy !req
565. And it bends.
All by itself.
Copy !req
566. Telekinesis.
Copy !req
567. I think Klaus Mensa's turned
his mind into a deadly
weapon.
Copy !req
568. (female #1)
Full tactical alert.
Copy !req
569. What? What are
you hearing?
Copy !req
570. I'm not sure.
Copy !req
571. Something's going on
at the new Troy bank.
Copy !req
572. Superman, bank robbery going
down. We can't even get close.
Copy !req
573. - How many of them are there?
- One.
Copy !req
574. - Armed with what?
- Nothing.
Copy !req
575. And he did all this?
Copy !req
576. Oh!
Copy !req
577. Alright, Mensa,
that's enough.
Copy !req
578. Your powers
won't work on me.
Copy !req
579. Probably true.
Copy !req
580. That's why I got a hold of
the people you love the most.
Copy !req
581. You know who
I'm talking about.
Copy !req
582. The big four. So, you so much
as look cross-eyed at me
Copy !req
583. and well, it won't be
a pretty death.
Copy !req
584. (Mensa)
'You think I'm joking,
big boy? Try me.'
Copy !req
585. 'Not so sure of yourself,
now, are you?'
Copy !req
586. Better think
this through, Misha.
Copy !req
587. Sitting around
that cult of yours.
Copy !req
588. A crime spree might sound kind
of fun, but this is serious.
Copy !req
589. Those cops are hurt!
Copy !req
590. Any chance of you
rebuilding your life
Copy !req
591. is getting mighty slim.
Copy !req
592. Shut up, both of you.
I don't have a choice.
Copy !req
593. You got any doubt that I'm
holding on to your loved ones
Copy !req
594. I'll let them talk to you
over a frequency
Copy !req
595. only you and I can hear.
Copy !req
596. He says he's got our parents.
Copy !req
597. (Mensa)
'Well, the little wife
showed up, too. Perfect.'
Copy !req
598. (Jonathan)
'Hi, I'm afraid it's
true.'
Copy !req
599. He's got me, too.
Copy !req
600. - He does have them.
- Superman, Ellen Lane!
Copy !req
601. Alright,
I'll help you.
Copy !req
602. - What do we do?
- Come here.
Copy !req
603. Rainbows follow
stormy skies.
Copy !req
604. Your father just said,
"Rainbows follow stormy
skies."
Copy !req
605. He used to say
that
when I was a kid.
Copy !req
606. It means
everything's
alright.
Copy !req
607. Alright,
stop right there.
Copy !req
608. No closer, pal.
That's it.
Copy !req
609. Okay, I warned you. Gas 'em!
Copy !req
610. Hey, didn't you
hear that?
Copy !req
611. Man, you are
a cold fish.
Copy !req
612. Lieutenant, I'm going
to take this car
Copy !req
613. and personally fly it back
to the penitentiary myself.
Copy !req
614. Superman, we couldn't
hold Fat Head. He's gone.
Copy !req
615. I'm in big trouble here.
Copy !req
616. Superman doesn't care
that I killed his parents.
Copy !req
617. The guy's gone berserk!
Copy !req
618. Where's that machine that
will pump up my brain power?
Copy !req
619. It's not ready yet.
Copy !req
620. I don't care
if it's not ready!
Copy !req
621. Hook me up. The guy
will be here any second!
Copy !req
622. Alright, but I'm warning you.
Copy !req
623. Okay. Hit it!
Copy !req
624. Too late, Superman.
Copy !req
625. I am invincible.
Copy !req
626. It's alright.
Shut it down.
Copy !req
627. I can't. Something is wrong.
Copy !req
628. His mental strength's
amplifying
the power of the machine.
Copy !req
629. Wait a minute!
Copy !req
630. His parents? I know
what the big secret
is!
Copy !req
631. His head's back to normal.
Copy !req
632. And his powers seem to be gone.
Copy !req
633. - What about the others?
- Others? What others?
Copy !req
634. My God, you know something,
I have no unpleasant memories.
Copy !req
635. The Bummer Be Gone,
it works!
Copy !req
636. Well, my parents
are back to
normal.
Copy !req
637. Clueless that their
son-in-law
moonlights in tights.
Copy !req
638. I guess knowing I'm Superman
Copy !req
639. brought them nothing
but unpleasantness.
Copy !req
640. So, now, that
memory is gone.
Copy !req
641. I don't think mom remembers
being mad at daddy either.
Copy !req
642. Apparently not, because I caught
them kissing out on the terrace.
Copy !req
643. Clark, I'm
sorry.
Copy !req
644. For what?
Copy !req
645. I'm sorry that daddy
can't find anything
wrong
Copy !req
646. with the S.T.A.R. Labs data.
Copy !req
647. He doesn't think we'll
be able to have kids.
Copy !req
648. Honey, I have not for one
second doubted in us.
Copy !req
649. We live the impossible.
Copy !req
650. A child is something brought
about by love, isn't it?
Copy !req
651. Well, then that
above all else
Copy !req
652. has got to be possible for us.
Copy !req
653. What? What are
you hearing?
Copy !req
654. I'm not sure.
Copy !req
655. Well, what does
it
sound like?
Copy !req
656. I can't actually believe
what it sounds like.
Copy !req
657. "Lois and Clark,
this child belongs to you."
Copy !req
658. - Son, everything alright?
- Everyone okay?
Copy !req
659. - We saw the lights.
- Lois?
Copy !req
660. Ah, yeah, everyone,
everything is absolutely
fine.
Copy !req
661. Um, mom and dad,
and, uh, mom and dad
Copy !req
662. uh, we have something
to tell you.
Copy !req
