1. Fear not, Kal-El.
Copy !req
2. - Who are you?
- I am Jor-El, your father.
Copy !req
3. - I thought you died.
- I am his memory.
Copy !req
4. His will.
Copy !req
5. I am to fulfill his promise
and guide you all the days of your life.
Copy !req
6. You are the last son of Krypton.
Copy !req
7. When you traveled through the cosmos,
you carried the hopes and dreams...
Copy !req
8. of your people.
They now live through you, Kal-El.
Copy !req
9. It is time.
Copy !req
10. Time for what?
Copy !req
11. Time to accept your destiny.
Copy !req
12. I don't know what you have
in mind for me, but l...
Copy !req
13. By the setting of the sun Sol...
Copy !req
14. you will return to me.
Copy !req
15. Your destiny will be fulfilled.
Copy !req
16. Your thoughts are not
a mystery to me, Kal-El.
Copy !req
17. But these people have served
their purpose.
Copy !req
18. It is time to leave them.
Copy !req
19. Please...
Copy !req
20. everything and everyone
I love is here in Smallville.
Copy !req
21. You must let go of your past.
Copy !req
22. I will guide you to your future.
Copy !req
23. No, I don't want your guidance.
Copy !req
24. - I want to create my own future.
- You have no choice, Kal-El.
Copy !req
25. Well, you're up early.
Copy !req
26. Never went to sleep.
Copy !req
27. Clark, what's wrong?
Copy !req
28. I kind of met my biological father
last night.
Copy !req
29. When I heard his voice,
it was coming from the ship.
Copy !req
30. But it sounded like
it was from my own head.
Copy !req
31. He said it was time.
Copy !req
32. - He said it was time for what?
- To leave Smallville and fulfill my destiny.
Copy !req
33. He said that?
Copy !req
34. - I have until sundown today.
- Or what?
Copy !req
35. I'm not sure.
Copy !req
36. But he said I didn't have a choice.
Copy !req
37. Why is it happening now
when my life is coming together?
Copy !req
38. The farm's out of debt,
I'm gonna be a big brother.
Copy !req
39. Lana and I are finally getting together.
Copy !req
40. Whatever your biological father
may have had in mind for you...
Copy !req
41. they're his hopes and dreams,
not yours.
Copy !req
42. Clark, you choose your own destiny.
Copy !req
43. Nobody can decide that for you, son.
Copy !req
44. This is my home...
Copy !req
45. and you're my parents.
Copy !req
46. It's where I belong,
and I'm not going anywhere.
Copy !req
47. Haven't seen you two together since...
Copy !req
48. Well, Dad, since you tried to bribe
Helen into dumping me.
Copy !req
49. And now Dr. Bryce refuses to accept this,
my wedding gift to her.
Copy !req
50. If you two star-crossed lovers
will excuse me.
Copy !req
51. You want to tell me
what that was all about?
Copy !req
52. Exactly what your father said.
Copy !req
53. You know what, I'm tired of bElng
a pawn in this never-ending struggle.
Copy !req
54. We both said some things last night.
Copy !req
55. I don't want to go into this marriage
with any secrets between us.
Copy !req
56. I haven't held anything back, Lex.
Copy !req
57. I have. Look inside.
Copy !req
58. I did break into your office.
And that's what I was after.
Copy !req
59. I told you because
I'm trying to break the cycle.
Copy !req
60. I don't want to be the person
who did this anymore.
Copy !req
61. But you did do it, Lex.
Copy !req
62. You committed a crime.
Copy !req
63. You violated my privacy
and that of my patient.
Copy !req
64. - I know.
- What did you think would happen?
Copy !req
65. That you'd give it back,
tell me what you did...
Copy !req
66. and I'd just forgive you
and we'd live happily ever after?
Copy !req
67. I don't know what I expected.
Copy !req
68. All I know is that I love you.
Copy !req
69. I'm sure in some part
of that twisted mind, you do.
Copy !req
70. I didn't have it analyzed.
Copy !req
71. What was so important
about this blood, anyway?
Copy !req
72. I thought it would give me
the answers I've been looking for.
Copy !req
73. All it did was end this relationship.
Copy !req
74. You okay?
Copy !req
75. Yeah, I'm great.
Copy !req
76. You know...
Copy !req
77. I can always tell
when you're bElng less than truthful.
Copy !req
78. It's just, I've...
Copy !req
79. I've waited for this for so long.
Copy !req
80. For us.
Copy !req
81. I just don't want it to go away.
Copy !req
82. I'm not going anywhere.
Copy !req
83. NElther am I.
Copy !req
84. So, Lana, does this mean you're
officially my date to Lex's wedding?
Copy !req
85. Only after we officially tell Chloe
about our change in status.
Copy !req
86. Clark, I've been avoiding her all day.
Copy !req
87. All right, just let me tell her.
Copy !req
88. Chloe and I agreed that we'd
be upfront about things like this.
Copy !req
89. Well, I'm sure if we're honest,
she'll be fine.
Copy !req
90. Never realized the small-town press
could be so pithy.
Copy !req
91. What do you think your father's up to?
Copy !req
92. He's already got a team
working overtime...
Copy !req
93. installing some pretty sophisticated
machinery down there.
Copy !req
94. What for?
Copy !req
95. I wish I could tell you, but I'm the last
person he'd ever let back in those caves.
Copy !req
96. He's tightened security.
Copy !req
97. I doubt even you'll be able to sneak past.
Copy !req
98. Where's this tailor?
Copy !req
99. Kind of pressed for time today.
Copy !req
100. I canceled him.
Copy !req
101. Why?
Copy !req
102. Because Helen's not walking
down the aisle tomorrow.
Copy !req
103. I saw her last night.
She seemed really happy.
Copy !req
104. - A lot can change in 24 hours.
- Why'd she break it off?
Copy !req
105. I've always been fighting my destiny.
Copy !req
106. Trying to avoid becoming my father.
Copy !req
107. But we all have certain genes that...
Copy !req
108. no matter how much we want
to change, dominate us.
Copy !req
109. What'd you do?
Copy !req
110. I betrayed Helen's trust.
Copy !req
111. Then I fought my own nature
and did something very un-Luthor-like.
Copy !req
112. I confessed my sin,
hoping she'd forgive me.
Copy !req
113. My guess is she didn't.
Copy !req
114. Don't tell anyone, Clark.
Copy !req
115. I want to hold on to my romantic notions
for one more day.
Copy !req
116. I'm gonna have to put a stop
to these unauthorized visits.
Copy !req
117. Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
118. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
119. I was just curious.
Copy !req
120. I'd suppose so.
Copy !req
121. According to poor Dr. Walden, you're
talked about quite a bit on these walls.
Copy !req
122. Apparently, you are going to rule us all.
Copy !req
123. I'm surprised someone like you would
put stock in anything he had to say.
Copy !req
124. I know you worked closely
with the man, Clark.
Copy !req
125. I'm sure there are insights you could
give me. It would be extremely helpful.
Copy !req
126. He didn't tell me anything.
Copy !req
127. What's with all the machinery?
Copy !req
128. I'm going to unlock the secrets
hidden in these walls.
Copy !req
129. Didn't you see what happened
to Dr. Walden? It's dangerous.
Copy !req
130. Yes, but I have something he didn't:
Copy !req
131. The key.
Copy !req
132. Once I insert that key into the slot...
Copy !req
133. I'm convinced the answers
will be revealed to me.
Copy !req
134. I thought your key
was stolen from your vault.
Copy !req
135. It was. But before it mysteriously
disappeared, I had it analyzed.
Copy !req
136. The composition was...
Copy !req
137. unique.
Copy !req
138. There's nothing like it on Earth.
With one exception:
Copy !req
139. The meteor rocks found here
in Smallville.
Copy !req
140. So I have fashioned my own key.
Copy !req
141. It's identical in every detail.
Copy !req
142. Isn't it beautiful? Look.
Copy !req
143. Clark, you don't look well.
Are you all right?
Copy !req
144. I'm fine.
Copy !req
145. Just...
Copy !req
146. be careful.
Copy !req
147. Lionel Luthor's never gotten
anywhere in life by playing it safe.
Copy !req
148. - I'm sure you'll render Clark speechless.
- Chloe, hi.
Copy !req
149. Be careful you two don't upstage
the bride and groom.
Copy !req
150. - What do you mean?
- You two are going together, I assume.
Copy !req
151. Yeah. Yeah, as friends.
Copy !req
152. Right. Friends.
Copy !req
153. Have you seen Clark?
He's been looking for you.
Copy !req
154. No. I've been trying to track
him down all day...
Copy !req
155. but his parents said that he was
mired in best-man duties.
Copy !req
156. When did you see him last?
Copy !req
157. Oh, I ran into him at the Talon.
Copy !req
158. He wanted to talk to you,
said it was important.
Copy !req
159. Well, I guess it couldn't be as important
as you thought.
Copy !req
160. Have fun tomorrow.
Copy !req
161. I figured this is where I'd find you.
Copy !req
162. Just watching the sunset.
Copy !req
163. Hope it's not the last one
I see from up here.
Copy !req
164. It won't be, Clark.
Copy !req
165. Son, it's just another sundown.
Copy !req
166. Come on, your mother's got dinner ready.
Copy !req
167. Yeah, I'll be there in a minute.
Copy !req
168. Dad?
Copy !req
169. Yeah.
Copy !req
170. Thanks for always believing in me.
Copy !req
171. You're welcome, son.
Copy !req
172. It is time, Kal-El. Come to me.
Copy !req
173. You will obey me, Kal-El.
Copy !req
174. You're not my father.
I won't let you control me.
Copy !req
175. This is the mark of your ancestors.
You cannot fight it, Kal-El.
Copy !req
176. At the zenith of the star Sol,
you will begin your journey.
Copy !req
177. If you do not, you will hurt
the ones you love most.
Copy !req
178. Clark, why aren't you ready?
Copy !req
179. The wedding doesn't start for
a few hours.
Copy !req
180. - Your mother wants to get a good seat.
- I promised I'd go early...
Copy !req
181. and check the flowers.
Copy !req
182. I gotta pick up Lana,
so I'll meet you there.
Copy !req
183. We obviously have to get used to the fact
that you have a girlfriend now.
Copy !req
184. Clark...
Copy !req
185. How's it going today, son?
Copy !req
186. Good.
Copy !req
187. - No voice?
- No voice.
Copy !req
188. Looks like you'll have to face the future
the old-fashioned way.
Copy !req
189. I guess so. It's pretty scary.
Copy !req
190. Heck, yeah.
Copy !req
191. - Mom.
- Yes?
Copy !req
192. You look beautiful today.
Copy !req
193. Thank you, sweetheart.
Copy !req
194. Helen.
Copy !req
195. - You're here.
- I am so angry at you.
Copy !req
196. - What you did was unforgivable.
- You're right.
Copy !req
197. But the farther I got
from you and this town...
Copy !req
198. I realized that, while any sane person
would have kept driving...
Copy !req
199. I needed to turn around.
Copy !req
200. I started to look at myself and mistakes
that I've made in my life.
Copy !req
201. I hope I'm not one of them.
Copy !req
202. No, Lex, you're not.
Copy !req
203. That's the thing.
Copy !req
204. I still love you.
Copy !req
205. Oh, man.
Copy !req
206. - Does it hurt?
- No, not now.
Copy !req
207. You got any idea what it means?
Copy !req
208. It's my biological father's way
of telling me I have to do what he wants.
Copy !req
209. I'm afraid by noon it'll control me.
Copy !req
210. Your parents must be freaked out.
Copy !req
211. I didn't tell them.
Copy !req
212. Why wouldn't you tell them, Clark?
Copy !req
213. Because, Pete,
I know what I have to do...
Copy !req
214. and they'll never agree with me
in a million years.
Copy !req
215. I have to destroy the ship.
Copy !req
216. What?
Copy !req
217. Clark, no.
Copy !req
218. This traveled millions of miles through
space. I don't think we can even dent it.
Copy !req
219. What if we had a kryptonite key?
Copy !req
220. Clark, this is whacked.
Copy !req
221. Pete, remember Lana's necklace?
Copy !req
222. What's it have to do
with destroying the ship?
Copy !req
223. Everything, Pete. When Tina Greer
tied me up down here, it nearly killed me.
Copy !req
224. But before it could,
the ship neutralized it.
Copy !req
225. - You said the ship was protecting you.
- What if it's actually protecting itself?
Copy !req
226. Think about it, Pete.
Copy !req
227. I'm from Krypton and so is this ship, and
what's the one thing that can kill me?
Copy !req
228. So you're thinking that kryptonite
can destroy the ship?
Copy !req
229. Clark, it's too dangerous.
Copy !req
230. Do you hear me? You've never done this
before. You don't know what'll happen.
Copy !req
231. It could kill you.
Copy !req
232. Besides, where are we gonna get
a kryptonite key?
Copy !req
233. How much longer now?
Copy !req
234. - Another 10 minutes, sir.
- Another 10 minutes.
Copy !req
235. Hey, Luthor!
I've got something to say to you.
Copy !req
236. Security.
Copy !req
237. - Get him out of here.
- Don't put your hands on me. Get off me.
Copy !req
238. If they don't let me go, I'll lay a lawsuit
on you so fast your head will spin.
Copy !req
239. All right, all right, I'll talk to him.
Do I know you?
Copy !req
240. - The name's Pete Ross.
- Ross, Ross, Ross...
Copy !req
241. As in Ross Creamed Corn?
You stole my family's business.
Copy !req
242. - I overpaid for that ramshackle factory.
- Nobody in this town likes you.
Copy !req
243. - Don't touch me. You hate him.
- I know that.
Copy !req
244. But I value their hatred.
I find it very useful.
Copy !req
245. You see, people are always
at their weakest when they're angry.
Copy !req
246. Ask your father.
Copy !req
247. I'll do that.
Copy !req
248. Get him out.
Copy !req
249. No.
Copy !req
250. No.
Copy !req
251. No!
Copy !req
252. You.
Copy !req
253. Search him. Search him.
Copy !req
254. - Search me? What are you doing?
- Where is it?
Copy !req
255. Where's what?
Copy !req
256. Careful, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
257. Wouldn't want to look weak.
Copy !req
258. Lex.
Copy !req
259. Mr. And Mrs. Kent.
Copy !req
260. Where's the best man?
Copy !req
261. Well, Clark and punctuality have never
been on the best terms, but he'll be here.
Copy !req
262. I got you something.
Copy !req
263. - A compass.
- Yeah, it's a Kent family tradition.
Copy !req
264. My father gave me one at our wedding,
in case I got lost going down the aisle.
Copy !req
265. Thank you, Mr. Kent.
Copy !req
266. Why aren't you dressed?
Copy !req
267. - There's something I have to do first.
- What?
Copy !req
268. I can't tell you.
Copy !req
269. Just know it's for us and our future.
Copy !req
270. Last time a guy said that to me...
Copy !req
271. he went off to war.
Copy !req
272. You should go.
Copy !req
273. I'll meet you there.
Copy !req
274. You sure you're all right?
Copy !req
275. Yeah.
Copy !req
276. Go.
Copy !req
277. Okay.
Copy !req
278. - Lana, l...
- Yeah?
Copy !req
279. I just wanted to remember this moment.
Copy !req
280. Any word on Clark? Helen's already
circled the church five times.
Copy !req
281. He was coming with Lana.
Copy !req
282. Lana, where's Clark?
Copy !req
283. He said he had something to do.
It seemed important.
Copy !req
284. - Mr. Kent...
- I'm sorry, Lex.
Copy !req
285. You'll have to start
without your best man.
Copy !req
286. - We can wait.
- Hey, don't worry about Clark.
Copy !req
287. You've got far more important
things to do here. Good luck.
Copy !req
288. Hey, Clark.
Copy !req
289. I'm glad I caught you
before the wedding.
Copy !req
290. - Chloe, what are you doing here?
- I heard you were looking for me.
Copy !req
291. Yeah, I was.
Copy !req
292. I can't talk to you right now.
Copy !req
293. - What are you doing?
- I'll find you later.
Copy !req
294. - Clark, I couldn't...
- Don't worry. I'll find you, okay?
Copy !req
295. So how'd you decide?
Copy !req
296. Rock, Paper, Scissors? Coin toss?
Or did you just draw the short straw?
Copy !req
297. Decide...?
Copy !req
298. Who was gonna tell me
that you and Lana are together.
Copy !req
299. You know?
Copy !req
300. Yeah. I came over to the barn the other
night to warn you about something.
Copy !req
301. - About what?
- You know, it doesn't matter now.
Copy !req
302. The point is,
I saw you and Lana in a major lip-Iock.
Copy !req
303. - I didn't mean...
- Didn't what, Clark?
Copy !req
304. News flash! You've always
been in love with Lana.
Copy !req
305. I tried to deny it, thinking that maybe
we could work something out, but...
Copy !req
306. It's like fate, Clark.
Copy !req
307. Inevitable, but always surprising
when it actually happens.
Copy !req
308. - I was gonna tell you.
- Really?
Copy !req
309. Obviously it was on
the top of your to-do list.
Copy !req
310. I can deal with the fact you guys are
together. It hurts, but I was prepared.
Copy !req
311. But we just made a promise
to be honest with each other...
Copy !req
312. and you didn't have the guts
to keep your word.
Copy !req
313. Or was it too much fun making a fool of
me that you couldn't reveal your secret?
Copy !req
314. Have a nice life, Clark.
Copy !req
315. Mr. And Mrs. Luthor, welcome aboard.
Copy !req
316. It'll be a couple of minutes.
The tower's generator just kicked in.
Copy !req
317. The county suffered
some sort of power failure.
Copy !req
318. Good. It'll mask our getaway.
Copy !req
319. To our new life.
Copy !req
320. What's the matter?
Copy !req
321. Nothing.
Copy !req
322. Everything's perfect.
Copy !req
323. - How is she?
- Doctors don't know yet.
Copy !req
324. What did you do, Clark?
Copy !req
325. I stole Lionel's kryptonite key.
Copy !req
326. I put it in the ship.
Copy !req
327. Why did you do that?
Copy !req
328. Dad, I lied about the voice.
Copy !req
329. It did come back.
It told me I had to leave by noon.
Copy !req
330. I didn't have a choice, Dad.
Copy !req
331. - I had to destroy the ship.
- Why didn't you tell us?
Copy !req
332. I knew you wouldn't agree
with what I did.
Copy !req
333. Dad, I didn't want it to take me
away from you.
Copy !req
334. - I'm so sorry for what I did.
- Your actions have consequences, Clark.
Copy !req
335. - Didn't your mother and I teach you that?
- Yes, but...
Copy !req
336. There's no time for excuses, Clark.
Copy !req
337. It's too late.
Copy !req
338. You didn't think this thing through.
Copy !req
339. You had no idea what was gonna
happen, and now...
Copy !req
340. Now your mother...
Copy !req
341. is lying in a hospital bed.
Copy !req
342. Mr. Kent.
Copy !req
343. Doctor, how is my wife?
Copy !req
344. She has a mild concussion,
but she'll be fine.
Copy !req
345. And how is our baby?
Copy !req
346. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
347. Dad.
Copy !req
348. Clark, what happened?
Copy !req
349. It looks like a bomb went off.
Copy !req
350. Where are your parents?
Copy !req
351. Hospital.
Copy !req
352. They're fine.
Copy !req
353. My mom lost the baby.
Copy !req
354. The baby?
Copy !req
355. This is all my fault, Lana. I did this.
Copy !req
356. How could you do this?
Copy !req
357. The same way I always do.
Copy !req
358. Bring pain and suffering
to everyone's lives.
Copy !req
359. - Clark, that's not true.
- Yes, Lana, it is.
Copy !req
360. Lana, I've kept so much from you.
Copy !req
361. If you knew the truth,
you'd never talk to me again.
Copy !req
362. I don't believe that.
Copy !req
363. I tried to cover up my past
and push it away.
Copy !req
364. I couldn't.
Copy !req
365. He said if I didn't go,
everyone I love would be hurt.
Copy !req
366. He was right.
Copy !req
367. Clark, you're in shock.
Copy !req
368. - You're not making any...
- No, Lana, stay away from me.
Copy !req
369. Stay away from me
before I hurt you too.
Copy !req
370. I'm glad you finally decided
to accept my offer.
Copy !req
371. You know you have a very exciting
future ahead of you, Ms. Sullivan.
Copy !req
372. Well, opportunities like this aren't
dropped on your doorstep every day.
Copy !req
373. Why the sudden change of heart?
Copy !req
374. You were right about Clark.
Copy !req
375. He wasn't who I thought he was.
Copy !req
376. I'm surprised I hadn't noticed earlier.
So much for my journalistic instinct.
Copy !req
377. No. No, love has a way of blinding
even the sharpest minds.
Copy !req
378. We don't look because
we don't want to see.
Copy !req
379. But once love has been stripped away,
then we see the real person clearly.
Copy !req
380. They're revealed to us
with all their flaws, their foibles...
Copy !req
381. and their secrets.
Copy !req
382. I've got a meeting.
Copy !req
383. - I'm sorry to rush you out like this.
- That's fine.
Copy !req
384. Mr. Luthor, why are you
so interested in Clark?
Copy !req
385. You don't expect me to show you
all my cards now, do you?
Copy !req
386. No, I guess not.
Copy !req
387. All will be revealed in good time,
Ms. Sullivan.
Copy !req
388. Thank you, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
389. I'm here, sweetheart. I'm here.
Copy !req
390. Clark, I've been looking all over for you,
I heard what happened.
Copy !req
391. You here to tell me I screwed up
in a major way?
Copy !req
392. No, I'm here to say I'm sorry
and I want to help.
Copy !req
393. It's too late for that, Pete.
No one can help me now.
Copy !req
394. Clark, what are you looking for?
Copy !req
395. I know Chloe kept one of those
red kryptonite rings here.
Copy !req
396. Why do you want it?
You know what it does.
Copy !req
397. Yeah, it makes me feel better.
Copy !req
398. That's not the answer, Clark.
Copy !req
399. I saw Lana. I heard what happened
to your mom's baby.
Copy !req
400. - Clark, you need to talk to your folks.
- I did talk to my parents, Pete.
Copy !req
401. You should've seen the way my dad
looked at me. It was like I was an alien.
Copy !req
402. If I'd done what I should've,
none of this would've happened.
Copy !req
403. Clark, don't do it. When you put
that ring on, you're not yourself.
Copy !req
404. Exactly who I don't
want to be right now, Pete.
Copy !req
405. Clark!
Copy !req
406. Clark, where are you going?
Copy !req
407. Away from here.
Copy !req
408. The Clark Kent I know wouldn't
run away from his problems.
Copy !req
409. The Clark Kent you know is a lie.
Copy !req
410. - Why won't you let me in?
- Because you won't like what you see.
Copy !req
411. - I am not giving up on you.
- No one can save me.
Copy !req
412. - Not even you.
- Your parents need you. I need you.
Copy !req
413. I love you, Clark.
Copy !req
414. I love you too.
Copy !req
415. More than you'll ever know.
Copy !req
416. That's why I have to leave.
Copy !req
417. Come with me.
Copy !req
418. Smallville's my home.
It's your home too.
Copy !req
419. Not anymore.
Copy !req
420. Helen.
Copy !req
421. Helen?
Copy !req
422. You will obey me, Kal-El.
