1. Superman is a liar.
Copy !req
2. He dodged every question
I asked him, Clark.
I have nothing.
Copy !req
3. This isn't an article.
Copy !req
4. It's a, It's a dead end. Ugh!
Copy !req
5. Seriously, who is Superman?
Copy !req
6. Well, maybe he's a nice guy
who has powers
Copy !req
7. and just wants to use them
to help as many people
as he can.
Copy !req
8. Clark, if you had powers,
you'd do that.
Copy !req
9. But I'm not talking
about you.
Copy !req
10. No.
We need another angle.
Copy !req
11. Bam! Got it!
Copy !req
12. "UFO Sighting?"
"Miracles in the Heartland?"
Copy !req
13. What is this?
Copy !req
14. Oh, you know, nothing.
Copy !req
15. Lois asked for them.
Copy !req
16. We're going to track down
Superman by reading tabloids!
Copy !req
17. There's nothing
about Superman online
or in any reputable papers.
Copy !req
18. - So maybe Jimmy is—
- What was that?
Copy !req
19. Couldn't quite hear
the last part.
Copy !req
20. Ugh, you might be right,
but since no one normal
believes in aliens,
Copy !req
21. the truth will be in these.
Copy !req
22. We're so close.
Copy !req
23. Together we can do this.
Together we will—
Copy !req
24. Come upstairs with me.
Copy !req
25. Easy. You're not in trouble
for being
in the newspaper morgue.
Copy !req
26. Now, shut up.
I'm about to be nice.
Copy !req
27. You keep telling me you want
to be reporters,
loudly, repeatedly.
Copy !req
28. So tonight, I'm going
to give you your shot.
Copy !req
29. Dr. Ivo, CEO of Amazo Tech.
Copy !req
30. As in, Amazo phones, computers,
security and anything else
you can think of.
Copy !req
31. And the man who used
his criminal connections
to displace
Copy !req
32. a whole neighborhood
for his headquarters.
Copy !req
33. Not to mention the accidents
that always seem
Copy !req
34. to hit his competitors.
Copy !req
35. But no one has been able
to verify those rumors,
and we work in facts.
Copy !req
36. Fact is, he's the most
eligible bachelor in the city.
Copy !req
37. So Cat's writing
an interest piece on him.
Copy !req
38. He's throwing a gala
for his investors tonight
Copy !req
39. and Cat wants you three
to get pictures of the event,
Copy !req
40. and quotes about Ivo
from the people attending.
Copy !req
41. Wait. Wait, wait, wait.
Copy !req
42. Are you saying you want us to
to do real journalism?
Copy !req
43. - Just for tonight.
- Our first assignment
from the chief!
Copy !req
44. Don't call me chief,
and it's just for tonight.
Copy !req
45. Anything you want, Chief.
Copy !req
46. Yes!
Copy !req
47. Don't make me
regret this. And dress up!
Copy !req
48. It's black tie.
Copy !req
49. Oh, and Lane...
Copy !req
50. Impress me.
Copy !req
51. Hey there.
Copy !req
52. Oh, uh, hi, Jimmy.
Have you...
Have you seen Lois?
Copy !req
53. Not yet.
But look at what I've got.
Copy !req
54. The Planet's entire
camera room, huh?
Copy !req
55. Okay, ha-ha, Clark,
But, seriously,
I need every one.
Copy !req
56. This is a fish-eye lens.
Copy !req
57. And I might have to get
a picture of the whole place.
Copy !req
58. And this one
is to block out the sun.
Copy !req
59. And I know
what you're thinking.
Copy !req
60. When would we need a UV light?
Copy !req
61. But when wouldn't we need
the coolest light?
Copy !req
62. What do you think?
Copy !req
63. Wow.
Copy !req
64. Ready to go
to the most exclusive high rise
in all of Metropolis?
Copy !req
65. - And spend the entire night
together?
- Almost like a... A...
Copy !req
66. An awesome evening
with three best friends.
Copy !req
67. Wow.
Copy !req
68. There's the refreshment table.
Copy !req
69. I'm going to go grab plate
of canape, and then let's go!
Copy !req
70. All right. Cat prepared
questions for us,
Copy !req
71. so I can take half
and you'll throw them away.
Copy !req
72. Okay. Why?
Copy !req
73. There is the CEO
of Galaxy Communications.
Copy !req
74. There is Mayor Fleming,
and there is her opponent.
Copy !req
75. We are with the most powerful
and corrupt people in the city.
Copy !req
76. There's no way I'm asking
about Metropolis'
most eligible bachelor.
Copy !req
77. "Do you have a comment
on your recent bribery
charges?"
Copy !req
78. "Where did the campaign
money go?"
Copy !req
79. Lois, please.
You're going to get
us thrown out.
Copy !req
80. You heard Perry.
He wants us to impress him.
Copy !req
81. This is our ticket
to more real work.
Copy !req
82. Look, I don't think
that's what he mea—
Copy !req
83. Okay? I grabbed anything
that said it contained gold.
Copy !req
84. Where... Where did you go?
Copy !req
85. Senator Sackett! Lois Lane,
the Daily Planet.
Copy !req
86. Do you have a comment
on the allegations
that your re-election campaign
Copy !req
87. - is taking bribes
from special interest groups?
- Ugh.
Copy !req
88. Sir? Senator!
Copy !req
89. A moment of... Sir!
Copy !req
90. - There you are.
- Oh, a photographer.
Copy !req
91. Thank goodness.
The old fraternity gang
is here,
Copy !req
92. and Omega Pi
needs a picture, stat.
Copy !req
93. - Come, chum.
- Wait, what...
Copy !req
94. Lois Lane, Daily Planet.
Copy !req
95. If you have a moment,
I'd like to ask you...
Copy !req
96. Excuse me!
Copy !req
97. Excuse me.
Copy !req
98. Clark Kent. Daily Planet.
Copy !req
99. Are you aware of corruption?
Copy !req
100. I think I'm on the wrong card.
Copy !req
101. Oh, and my granddaughter.
Copy !req
102. It's her debut this weekend.
Copy !req
103. Sir, I'm here
for the Daily Planet.
Copy !req
104. Ooh!
Copy !req
105. Then we'll be on
the front page, undoubtably.
Copy !req
106. Oh, I'm sorry.
Can we get a picture
with your fish-eye lens?
Copy !req
107. Yes, I also have a UV light.
Copy !req
108. Ooh.
Copy !req
109. Excuse me, Lois Lane, Daily...
Copy !req
110. Ma'am, for the Daily Planet.
Can you comment on...
Copy !req
111. Thanks, Smallville.
Copy !req
112. Lois, maybe we should go back
to Cat's questions?
Copy !req
113. No. We have a golden
opportunity here
to write a story that matters.
Copy !req
114. And we will... one day.
Copy !req
115. But for now, we should stick
to the assignment.
Copy !req
116. You don't understand.
Copy !req
117. Lois.
Copy !req
118. I'm going to go back
to Ms. Grant's cards
Copy !req
119. and I'll take the next person
who comes in.
Copy !req
120. Okay?
Copy !req
121. Ladies and gentlemen, you know him
as the founder of Amazo Tech.
Copy !req
122. The boy genius who, at 21,
disrupted the way we interact
with technology.
Copy !req
123. A leader, a humanitarian
and your host.
Copy !req
124. Put your hands together
Copy !req
125. for... Dr. Ivo!
Copy !req
126. Oh, oh, oh, what?
Oh, hey, that's me!
Copy !req
127. Thank you. Thank you.
You're welcome. Thank you.
Copy !req
128. Oh, and what a spread, huh?
Copy !req
129. Okay, my assistant Alex
went all out,
Copy !req
130. so a round of applause
for the little people.
Copy !req
131. Alex, Alex, Alex.
Now, I want you to take
a moment.
Copy !req
132. Look to your left.
Look to your right.
Copy !req
133. Remember these faces.
Copy !req
134. Because these are the people
that you'll witness
history with,
Copy !req
135. as we reveal the latest
from Amazo Tech.
Copy !req
136. Until then, enjoy the canapes,
snack some of those lamb chops,
Copy !req
137. and get your phones ready
to record.
Copy !req
138. Ah. Boom!
Copy !req
139. Nailed it.
Copy !req
140. Well, sure, that, obviously,
put that on the Tube,
Copy !req
141. but also what I'm about
to unveil.
Copy !req
142. Thank you.
Copy !req
143. - Thank you.
- Oh, yeah.
This one's all yours.
Copy !req
144. Welcome in advance.
Curtis, my man.
Copy !req
145. You know what?
Glad you're here.
Copy !req
146. The board is meeting
for the vote tonight, Anthony.
Copy !req
147. They won't be held
off any longer.
Copy !req
148. Let's talk over here.
Copy !req
149. Yeah, that is not
what we agreed on.
Copy !req
150. - The tech I'm about to debut—
- Won't change anything.
Copy !req
151. The latest profit numbers
are nonexistent, Tony.
Copy !req
152. Yeah, you can't vote me out
of my own company, okay?
Copy !req
153. - I am Amazo Tech.
- And you're broke.
Copy !req
154. So listen to me.
Copy !req
155. No, no, no, no, no.
You listen to me.
Copy !req
156. There will be a grand unveiling
of our newest product.
Copy !req
157. It will redefine humanity
and all the money problems
will go away.
Copy !req
158. So, why don't you go ahead
and keep the board happy
until the end of the night?
Copy !req
159. Dr. Ivo,
Clark Kent
with the Daily Planet.
Copy !req
160. Excuse me.
What? Wow.
Copy !req
161. I didn't realize
reporters came in this size.
Copy !req
162. What are you, a linebacker?
Copy !req
163. Think fast. Ow!
Copy !req
164. Wow!
Copy !req
165. Ouch.
Copy !req
166. Oh.
Copy !req
167. I know who you are.
Copy !req
168. - Uh...
- You're from Cat, right?
Copy !req
169. Aw, love that little lady.
Copy !req
170. But between you and me,
I'd much rather talk
mano a mano.
Copy !req
171. How about this.
I'll give you the juicy deets
for that bachelor article,
Copy !req
172. and if you forget anything
you might have overheard
between me and Curtis,
Copy !req
173. we can introduce you
to the gala's finer bachelorettes.
Copy !req
174. Huh? Little quid bro quo.
Copy !req
175. Oh, no. Well, not her.
Copy !req
176. Gross, ugh, gag.
Copy !req
177. No, I meant
a classy gal, you know?
Copy !req
178. What do you say, buddy? Hmm?
Copy !req
179. Well, I'd say your company displaced
an entire neighborhood
Copy !req
180. in a real estate deal
connected to the
Gazzo crime family.
Copy !req
181. Is that what you'd like
to focus on?
Copy !req
182. Or perhaps you want to comment
on the investigation
into the fires
Copy !req
183. that took down
your other competitors?
Copy !req
184. Because I'd love to talk
about that, mano a mano.
Copy !req
185. This kid! Oh!
Copy !req
186. I love it. I love it.
You're great.
Copy !req
187. Hey, you know what?
Let's just escort you
to the press section.
Copy !req
188. Shall we?
Copy !req
189. Hi, Lois.
Copy !req
190. - Uh, sorry. I just got, uh—
- Oh, I don't know if I should
let you back in.
Copy !req
191. I mean, you don't follow
the cards,
Copy !req
192. you don't stick
to the assignment.
Copy !req
193. And I don't
even meet the
dress code anymore.
Copy !req
194. That we can fix.
Copy !req
195. Take it off.
Copy !req
196. Wha... What?
Copy !req
197. The jacket, bad boy.
Copy !req
198. Wha... What?
Copy !req
199. I've ripped enough blazers
running after stories
that I'm always prepared.
Copy !req
200. Wow. Uh...
Copy !req
201. Uh, so this seems old,
a high school jacket?
Copy !req
202. Chess club,
I never played sports.
Copy !req
203. It's my dad.
Copy !req
204. Oh, you can take it
if you need to.
Copy !req
205. No, no, it's fine.
Copy !req
206. Um...
Copy !req
207. My dad and I,
we don't talk.
Copy !req
208. My whole life, he's kept things
to his chest.
Copy !req
209. His job, where we were moving
next when I was a kid.
Copy !req
210. How sick Mom really was.
Copy !req
211. And even before she passed,
he wasn't someone you went
to with your problems.
Copy !req
212. He...
Copy !req
213. He doesn't want to hear
about my screwups.
Copy !req
214. Wait, what? Lois, what are you
talking about?
Copy !req
215. Clark, It's been a year
and I'm still an intern.
Copy !req
216. I couldn't even get anyone
to talk to me tonight.
Copy !req
217. I became a reporter
to do work that matters.
Copy !req
218. - But every time I tried—
- Lois, since I started
this job,
Copy !req
219. you have almost gotten
me fired, frozen
and smashed by robots.
Copy !req
220. Clark, do they not teach you
how to comfort people
Copy !req
221. in Kansas?
Copy !req
222. But if it weren't for you,
I'd still be making coffee,
Copy !req
223. dreaming of a chance
to do more.
Copy !req
224. You've changed my life
for the better, Lois,
Copy !req
225. in every possible way.
Copy !req
226. Thank you.
Copy !req
227. I've been feeling off lately,
and this means...
Copy !req
228. a lot.
Copy !req
229. Actually, there's something
I've been wanting to say.
Something I...
Copy !req
230. I need to tell you.
Copy !req
231. - Lois, I'm—
- And it's all Superman's fault.
Copy !req
232. I know that guy
is hiding something,
Copy !req
233. and I hate being lied to,
you know?
Copy !req
234. It's throwing me off. Ugh!
Copy !req
235. Sorry, you were going to say?
Copy !req
236. I, uh...
Copy !req
237. Nothing.
Copy !req
238. Huh?
Copy !req
239. Lois!
Copy !req
240. Locked.
Copy !req
241. - Uh, looks like
it was just stuck.
- Ha!
Copy !req
242. Lois, this is the same kind
of stolen tech Intergang had,
and Livewire.
Copy !req
243. What are those?
Copy !req
244. Alex, if you
make me late, so help me,
I will ruin your life.
Copy !req
245. But it's still a prototype.
And short-term wear
Copy !req
246. - caused out-of-control
aggression in the test groups.
- Aah!
Copy !req
247. Oh, my God, at what point
did this seem like
a conversation, Alex?
Copy !req
248. When you started
talking to me.
Copy !req
249. The board's against me,
the baby reporter
humiliated me.
Copy !req
250. But with this,
I'll shut everybody up.
Copy !req
251. Now!
Copy !req
252. Ladies and gentlemen,
the time has come
for you to see the future.
Copy !req
253. I present the Parasite 1.0.
Copy !req
254. We live in dangerous times.
Copy !req
255. Metropolis was the safest city
in America.
Copy !req
256. Now we're in the midst
of a crime wave
like nothing before.
Copy !req
257. And then there's Superman,
Copy !req
258. a guy who claims
he just wants to help.
Copy !req
259. But can we really trust
a stranger to help us for free?
Copy !req
260. Of course we can't.
Copy !req
261. The only person you can trust
is yourself.
Copy !req
262. And now, with the Parasite,
you can become
your own Superman.
Copy !req
263. But don't take my word for it.
Copy !req
264. Let's get a volunteer.
Copy !req
265. How about... you?
Copy !req
266. Lois!
Copy !req
267. Where's Clark?
I thought he was with you.
Copy !req
268. What do you mean?
He's right here.
Copy !req
269. Clark?
Copy !req
270. We're trapped.
Copy !req
271. This is taking too long.
Copy !req
272. Let's speed things up.
Copy !req
273. - Huh?
- Hello.
Copy !req
274. There you are.
Copy !req
275. Dr. Ivo. I don't know
what's going on here,
Copy !req
276. but you need
to let these people go.
Copy !req
277. Whoa! What? And lose
my audience right when
the main attraction arrives?
Copy !req
278. Buddy, I don't think
you understand sales. Alex!
Copy !req
279. Now!
Copy !req
280. That's right, folks.
Our pal Superman is gonna help
with our demonstration.
Copy !req
281. You see, the Parasite 1.0
gives me strength,
Copy !req
282. speed and durability
Copy !req
283. equal to his.
Copy !req
284. And if he tries to fight back,
the suit absorbs
Copy !req
285. that kinetic energy
and redirects it.
Copy !req
286. So the bigger they are,
the harder you hit back.
Copy !req
287. And while
the Parasite runs off
Copy !req
288. the energy it absorbs,
for longer, sustained,
battery life,
Copy !req
289. my portable Amazo panic room
has your back.
Copy !req
290. Available now.
Copy !req
291. Huh?
Copy !req
292. The show is being controlled
from there. Come on.
Copy !req
293. You know,
I built this company myself.
Copy !req
294. And I deserve more.
Copy !req
295. More!
Copy !req
296. No, I am not letting you
interrupt Doctor—
Copy !req
297. Sorry. Your life seems hard.
Copy !req
298. We got to turn off the cage.
Copy !req
299. One of these buttons
has to do it.
Copy !req
300. Okay. Which one is it?
Copy !req
301. A-ha, found you.
Copy !req
302. Jimmy, this isn't the time
for taking pictures.
Copy !req
303. UV light isn't just cool.
It can reveal fingerprints.
Copy !req
304. Aah!
Copy !req
305. Cheater!
Copy !req
306. You cheated!
Copy !req
307. This isn't a game.
You need to stop.
Copy !req
308. You're afraid...
Copy !req
309. that I'm better than you.
Copy !req
310. Huh?
Copy !req
311. I don't have to be better
than you.
Copy !req
312. I just have to stop
supplying you with power.
Copy !req
313. Fight me!
Copy !req
314. No.
Copy !req
315. Coward!
Copy !req
316. Please, this man
needs your help.
Copy !req
317. You ruined me.
Copy !req
318. What's your angle?
Copy !req
319. What's in this for you?
Copy !req
320. Dr Ivo, look around you.
Copy !req
321. Is it that hard to believe
that some people just want
to help?
Copy !req
322. The proof's all there.
Copy !req
323. The stolen tech, which Ivo
could only have gotten
from his criminal connections.
Copy !req
324. Once we get the photos,
we'll have our story.
Copy !req
325. I just can't believe
it all disappeared.
Copy !req
326. Someone must have taken it
during the fight.
Copy !req
327. But who?
Copy !req
328. Lois, I have to figure
this out. Too many people
are getting hurt.
Copy !req
329. It's cute seeing you
obsess over a story.
Copy !req
330. You know,
when I was getting ready,
Copy !req
331. I kept wondering
if this counted as a date.
Copy !req
332. And what did you decide?
Copy !req
333. Walk me back, Smallville.
Copy !req
334. Yes! You guys have to see this.
Copy !req
335. I got photos of everything.
Copy !req
336. I even posted the fight
on Flamebird.
Copy !req
337. I told you this was going
to be an amazing night out...
Copy !req
338. With three best friends.
Copy !req
339. An exclusive on the collapse
of a Amazo Tech is... sent.
Copy !req
340. What is this?
Copy !req
341. Huh.
Copy !req
342. Hmm.
Copy !req
343. What?
Copy !req
344. No.
Copy !req
345. Clark Kent is Superman?
Copy !req
