1. Looking for something special?Copy !req
2. My mom's birthday's coming up.
How are you feeling?Copy !req
3. Still trying to get the taste
of hospital Jell-O out of my mouth.Copy !req
4. But the leg's feeling better.Copy !req
5. I thought of visiting, but...Copy !req
6. It's okay. I understand.Copy !req
7. I've gotta go. Bye.Copy !req
8. Sure about this?Copy !req
9. Follow the plan, Nathan.
Nobody will know you're there.Copy !req
10. You smash, I grab. It's done.Copy !req
11. Do your thing, kid.Copy !req
12. Last time Martha was in,
she made a point of trying these on.Copy !req
13. Did she try anything on
that didn't have four numbers in the price?Copy !req
14. Well, I just got in some nice
costume pieces from a local designer.Copy !req
15. Quite unique.Copy !req
16. Straight from outer space.Copy !req
17. Thanks, but I'll keep looking.Copy !req
18. Not another step.Copy !req
19. Don't you move.
The police are on their way.Copy !req
20. - Clark, are you all right?
- Lana?Copy !req
21. Lana, it's my eyes. I can't see.Copy !req
22. Here, honey. Sit back, there you go.Copy !req
23. Jonathan, we have to do something.Copy !req
24. Yeah, I know, sweetheart, but what?Copy !req
25. Clark's retinas were scarred
by that heat burst.Copy !req
26. You saw the doctor, he was baffled.Copy !req
27. He wasn't baffled. You handcuffed him.Copy !req
28. The last doctor we trusted
sold Clark's blood to Lionel Luthor.Copy !req
29. - We'll find one we can trust.
- We can't risk that.Copy !req
30. Clark has lost his sight. We may have
to risk someone learning his secret.Copy !req
31. Martha, this is not about Clark's secret.
His powers have hurt him.Copy !req
32. And before we run out and just
do something, we should think this through.Copy !req
33. Don't I get a vote?Copy !req
34. Of course you do, Clark.Copy !req
35. I think it may just be a question of time
before I get better.Copy !req
36. Sweetheart, it could be permanent.Copy !req
37. And there's a lot of people who learn
to live with disabilities every day.Copy !req
38. What's the worst that could happen?
Go to school and walk through a wall?Copy !req
39. Everyone's staring, aren't they?Copy !req
40. - They're just digging your shades.
- Yeah.Copy !req
41. Hey, man, let me give you a hand.Copy !req
42. I've been up on this combination
since third grade.Copy !req
43. Here you go.Copy !req
44. If it helps, the guy who did this
landed on my mom's court calendar.Copy !req
45. I don't think Judge Ross will be giving
this Masterson guy any breaks.Copy !req
46. Clark.Copy !req
47. - You're already back.
- It's nothing quite that heroic.Copy !req
48. It's just a pit stop.Copy !req
49. Well, if you need anything,
I'm here for you.Copy !req
50. Class notes, help writing papers...Copy !req
51. One thing I learned from my accident...Copy !req
52. is that you can't go through
something like this alone.Copy !req
53. Just because I'm blind, doesn't mean
the issues between us disappeared.Copy !req
54. This doesn't change anything.Copy !req
55. I was just offering
a helping hand, Clark...Copy !req
56. but I won't make that mistake again.Copy !req
57. Whoever said "absence makes
the heart grow fonder"...Copy !req
58. obviously hasn't met the two of you.
Here you go.Copy !req
59. - What's the matter?
- Pete, did you hear that?Copy !req
60. - Hear what?
- Hello.Copy !req
61. - Chloe?
- She's not here, Clark.Copy !req
62. - Hello?
- Pete, I can hear her right now.Copy !req
63. What do you want?Copy !req
64. I'm at school.
This isn't the best place to talk.Copy !req
65. I'm done with this.
Someone could hear me.Copy !req
66. I can't believe you're calling me
after all that's happened.Copy !req
67. Look, I told you before...Copy !req
68. my researching Clark days are over.Copy !req
69. Really? I have such a vivid memory
of that young reporter...Copy !req
70. just eager to work
for the Daily Planet.Copy !req
71. As an opportunity I provided for
with only one requirement.Copy !req
72. Well, I gave you all the information I had,
Mr. Luthor.Copy !req
73. Look, you have to look at Clark Kent
as a work in progress.Copy !req
74. Tell me it didn't arouse
your instincts as a journalist...Copy !req
75. when you learned about
Clark's blindness.Copy !req
76. Especially when the others at the scene
had hearing-related traumas.Copy !req
77. Find someone else to connect the dots,
Mr. Luthor, because I'm done with this.Copy !req
78. What are you gonna do, then?
You gonna go running back to Lex?Copy !req
79. - Or what's left of him?
- Lex has a serious mental illness.Copy !req
80. It's as if there's a—
A crack in his foundation, you understand?Copy !req
81. The structure may look perfectly stable...Copy !req
82. but it can't take any pressure.Copy !req
83. So we will let Lex sit in his office...Copy !req
84. sharpening pencils.Copy !req
85. But I expect a full report from you
on Clark Kent, Miss Sullivan, by—Copy !req
86. Clark, what happened?Copy !req
87. Pete, there's something wrong.
You have to get me home right away.Copy !req
88. So these sounds, they—
They just hit you all at once?Copy !req
89. Like someone turned on
a giant stereo full-blast.Copy !req
90. - Suddenly all the sounds were magnified.
- Here's the couch.Copy !req
91. And then they just went away.
It was completely random.Copy !req
92. Well, with your x-ray abilities
and your heat vision...Copy !req
93. I'm not really sure how
your senses should develop.Copy !req
94. It may be just a one-time thing.Copy !req
95. Or your body trying to compensate
for its lack of sight.Copy !req
96. I just hope it goes away.Copy !req
97. All the sounds, they were so loud.Copy !req
98. I didn't know where they were
coming from or what they were.Copy !req
99. Then there was Chloe and Lionel.Copy !req
100. What about them?Copy !req
101. They were on the phone.
They were talking about me.Copy !req
102. I don't think it was
for the first time, either.Copy !req
103. Hey.Copy !req
104. - Lex, it's nice to see you.
- How are you? Mr. Kent.Copy !req
105. I have to fill out paperwork
for Clark's principal.Copy !req
106. Yeah, that stuff's due tomorrow.Copy !req
107. Clark, I don't know what to say.Copy !req
108. How about hello?Copy !req
109. Come on. Behind the Ray-Bans,
I'm still the same old Clark.Copy !req
110. You know, when my father
lost his sight...Copy !req
111. I contacted some of the world's
top ophthalmologists.Copy !req
112. You just say the word,
I'll get any of them for you.Copy !req
113. I appreciate that, Lex,
but this isn't a problem to be solved.Copy !req
114. It's something I need to
learn to live with.Copy !req
115. Look, I really don't wanna talk about it.Copy !req
116. Even when people don't mention it,
I can hear the concern in their voices.Copy !req
117. Trust me...Copy !req
118. I know the feeling.Copy !req
119. I found there's an almost medieval prejudice
against the survivors of mental illness.Copy !req
120. The only way I can put the insinuations
behind me is by proving my worth.Copy !req
121. How are you gonna do that?Copy !req
122. By returning to LuthorCorp.Copy !req
123. My father's offered me
my old position back.Copy !req
124. Lex, do you think that job offer
is for real?Copy !req
125. Why, Clark?Copy !req
126. You know something I don't?Copy !req
127. I heard that that job offer's a sham.
Your dad doesn't really think you're better.Copy !req
128. So he thinks I'm just gonna sit in my office
and twiddle my thumbs?Copy !req
129. No, his exact words were
"sharpening pencils."Copy !req
130. Clark, where did you hear this?Copy !req
131. It doesn't matter where I heard it.Copy !req
132. The important thing is,
you need to be careful.Copy !req
133. - Hi, sweetheart.
- Hi.Copy !req
134. You know, Jonathan, I was thinking,
maybe we should hire extra hands.Copy !req
135. You look tired.
I'm concerned about you.Copy !req
136. No, Martha,
we're barely making ends meet as it is.Copy !req
137. It won't help if you wind up
in a hospital bed.Copy !req
138. I'll be all right, I just need...
Need to catch my breath.Copy !req
139. What are you doing?Copy !req
140. Board of education disability application
to get Clark a special teacher.Copy !req
141. His counselor said that
he could take his regular classes.Copy !req
142. Until when?Copy !req
143. His life has changed...Copy !req
144. and so has yours,
but neither one of you will admit it.Copy !req
145. - Martha—
- You both think you're supermen...Copy !req
146. who can do everything alone,
but you can't anymore.Copy !req
147. You need to start relying on people,
and so does he.Copy !req
148. So I got a letter
from the insurance carrier.Copy !req
149. Apparently, my entire medical bill
has been taken care of?Copy !req
150. Well, who said all insurance companies
are evil?Copy !req
151. It wasn't your fault, Lana.
It was mine.Copy !req
152. I pushed you into the stall.
That spooked the horse.Copy !req
153. - Lex, you were—
- Crazy?Copy !req
154. Not yourself.Copy !req
155. Semantics aside, you got caught
in the crossfire trying to help me.Copy !req
156. For that, I'm truly sorry.Copy !req
157. As much as I appreciate
the grand gestures...Copy !req
158. you could've just stopped by the Talon
and said hello.Copy !req
159. Yeah, well, the grand gestures
have always come easier.Copy !req
160. I'm sorry I couldn't be there
during your rehabilitation...Copy !req
161. but I'm sure Clark was more than able
to pick up the slack.Copy !req
162. Actually, Clark hasn't been around.Copy !req
163. We kind of decided the best way
to stop hurting each other...Copy !req
164. was to stop seeing
each other altogether.Copy !req
165. Given his new reality, I'm sure
he could use your support right now.Copy !req
166. The brave front's an act, Lana.
My father did the same thing.Copy !req
167. Lex, I've tried to reach out to him.Copy !req
168. I don't think my presence
is going to raise his spirits.Copy !req
169. By the way, who's Adam?Copy !req
170. I noticed the Talon bills included some...Copy !req
171. gift baskets sent to him
at the Smallville Medical Center.Copy !req
172. I'm going to reimburse the shop.Copy !req
173. You still haven't answered my question.Copy !req
174. He's a friend I made in physical therapy.Copy !req
175. Must've made quite an impression.Copy !req
176. Yeah, he did.Copy !req
177. Don't be a stranger.Copy !req
178. Clark?Copy !req
179. - Chloe.
- Hi.Copy !req
180. Look, as much as I try and avoid
unbearable cliches...Copy !req
181. if there's anything I can do, just...Copy !req
182. I'll manage.Copy !req
183. You didn't come all the way out here
to check out the blind guy.Copy !req
184. Actually, I'm on something of a mission.Copy !req
185. Have you seen Pete?Copy !req
186. Sorry.Copy !req
187. It's...Copy !req
188. We were supposed to meet this morning
and double-team my Daily Planet column—Copy !req
189. Is that the column
Lionel Luthor helped you land?Copy !req
190. What's that supposed to mean?Copy !req
191. I may have lost my sight,
but things are becoming much clearer now.Copy !req
192. Exactly how long have you and Lionel
been looking into my life?Copy !req
193. Since last spring.Copy !req
194. The day after Lex's wedding.Copy !req
195. When you saw me and Lana together.Copy !req
196. Is that why you did this?Copy !req
197. Your silence is deafening.Copy !req
198. - What did you give him?
- Nothing.Copy !req
199. - Nothing he didn't already know.
- Then what is he sharing with you?Copy !req
200. Nothing.Copy !req
201. Believe it or not, Clark,
I was trying to help you.Copy !req
202. - By spying on me?
- No...Copy !req
203. by trying to understand
why he's so intrigued with you.Copy !req
204. And if the Torch got new computers, or you
made a name for yourself, that's okay too.Copy !req
205. After accusing me of keeping secrets,
how could you do this to me?Copy !req
206. I was...Copy !req
207. He just— He caught me
at an especially bad time...Copy !req
208. and I caved.Copy !req
209. I'm trying to get out of it, but when
people like Lionel Luthor have you...Copy !req
210. they don't want to let go.Copy !req
211. I thought that you, out of all people...Copy !req
212. would understand making a stupid
decision in a moment of weakness.Copy !req
213. But I guess I was wrong.Copy !req
214. Clark!Copy !req
215. Your parents are ready to start
gluing your picture to milk cartons.Copy !req
216. How'd you get out here, anyhow?Copy !req
217. I walked.Copy !req
218. Turns out I do know
every inch of this farm.Copy !req
219. I really didn't mean to scare them.
I couldn't take all the noise.Copy !req
220. So your mega-hearing is back?Copy !req
221. Suddenly, I'm the ultimate eavesdropper.Copy !req
222. Did someone follow you?Copy !req
223. No. Why?Copy !req
224. Clark.Copy !req
225. Ross! Get in the truck!Copy !req
226. Pete, what's going on?Copy !req
227. - Pete?
- I said, get in the truck!Copy !req
228. Pete, who is that?Copy !req
229. Pete, what's going on? Talk to me.Copy !req
230. Pete!Copy !req
231. - So they didn't find anything by Pete's car?
- Nothing helpful.Copy !req
232. Whoever took Pete made the same sound
Clark heard at the jewelry store.Copy !req
233. There has to be a connection.Copy !req
234. I understand that, Mrs. Kent...Copy !req
235. but frankly, your son's
ear-witness testimony isn't much help.Copy !req
236. No, it is too a help, sheriff.Copy !req
237. It means that Masterson
has an accomplice.Copy !req
238. And in a town of 45,000 people,
that doesn't exactly narrow things down.Copy !req
239. No, but I'd think it'd give you
a place to start. Abby?Copy !req
240. Judge Ross? You should be home
in case there's a ransom demand.Copy !req
241. They just called.
I asked your deputy to bring me here.Copy !req
242. Is Pete all right?Copy !req
243. So far.Copy !req
244. Abby...Copy !req
245. - What do they want?
- Masterson's pretrial hearing is tomorrow.Copy !req
246. Apparently, his attorney is going to make
a motion to dismiss all charges.Copy !req
247. If I don't grant it,
they're gonna kill my son.Copy !req
248. Oh, my gosh. Abby...Copy !req
249. Clark, you mind telling us
what's going on in here?Copy !req
250. - I'm trying to focus my hearing!
- I take it you're not having much luck!Copy !req
251. If I don't get a handle on this,
I can't save Pete.Copy !req
252. Clark, Judge Ross was at the house.Copy !req
253. I know. Dad, I heard.Copy !req
254. Playing chicken with the kidnappers
is not a good idea.Copy !req
255. They're gonna kill Pete.
I've gotta focus. Help me.Copy !req
256. All right, let's get to work, then.Copy !req
257. Listen for your father's voice.Copy !req
258. All right, Clark, concentrate.Copy !req
259. Concentrate on my voice, son.Copy !req
260. Dad!Copy !req
261. Clark. Clark!Copy !req
262. Dad, it's okay. It's okay.
For a second, I could hear you.Copy !req
263. That's great. I was barely whispering.Copy !req
264. Okay. Let's keep working.Copy !req
265. Focus, Clark.Copy !req
266. Focus on my voice.Copy !req
267. Can you hear me?Copy !req
268. Good.Copy !req
269. Lex?Copy !req
270. I'm sorry, son.
I'm afraid I don't have much time.Copy !req
271. I have to be back in Metropolis in an hour.
What did you want to talk about?Copy !req
272. When I was released from the institution,
you welcomed me back with open arms.Copy !req
273. That's right.Copy !req
274. I should've known better than to
take your promises at face value.Copy !req
275. I don't understand, son.
What are we talking about?Copy !req
276. Humiliation.Copy !req
277. Word's out that my position at LuthorCorp
will consist of a title and little else.Copy !req
278. That's foolish, son.Copy !req
279. I've always wanted you to work with me.
You know that.Copy !req
280. To do what? Sharpen pencils?Copy !req
281. Lex, please. Listen to me.Copy !req
282. If you thought you could throw me
behind a desk and forget about me...Copy !req
283. you're making a grave mistake.Copy !req
284. Unless, of course, my source is wrong.Copy !req
285. It's true, Lex.Copy !req
286. I have been disappointed
with your performance in the past...Copy !req
287. but it's nothing
I haven't said to you.Copy !req
288. And, evidently, to anyone who will listen.Copy !req
289. So I have to keep proving myself,
is that it?Copy !req
290. Unfortunately, we have to
prove ourselves every day.Copy !req
291. I've come to accept that...Copy !req
292. and in time, so will you...Copy !req
293. I hope.Copy !req
294. Lex, listen to me.Copy !req
295. If someone is trying
to drive a wedge between us...Copy !req
296. someone we both know...Copy !req
297. then that's treachery, son.Copy !req
298. Who is this source of yours?Copy !req
299. Who were you talking to when
you decided to trash me behind my back?Copy !req
300. Dad, I'm really worried about Pete.
We've looked everywhere.Copy !req
301. Well, we're at the Talon, Clark.Copy !req
302. I thought maybe you and l
could get an update.Copy !req
303. I'll be right back, son.Copy !req
304. - That was fast.
- Your dad told me you were out here.Copy !req
305. Lana.Copy !req
306. I thought you might want some company.Copy !req
307. - But if you don't...
- No, please stay.Copy !req
308. About this morning...Copy !req
309. It's okay, Clark. You were upset.Copy !req
310. No. It's not okay.Copy !req
311. All I've managed to do lately
is push people away...Copy !req
312. and the truth is, Lana,
I miss having you in my life.Copy !req
313. But I understand why
you don't want me around.Copy !req
314. I was hurt and scared.Copy !req
315. Clark, I overreacted.Copy !req
316. The way I've been treating you,
I'm surprised you didn't bolt sooner.Copy !req
317. I know you had your reasons
for pulling away.Copy !req
318. Maybe those reasons are gone.Copy !req
319. What are you saying?Copy !req
320. What I'm saying is,
my life is different now...Copy !req
321. and one thing I've realized is
I don't want to be alone.Copy !req
322. Clark, you're not alone.Copy !req
323. I should get back inside.Copy !req
324. Lana, what is that?Copy !req
325. What, the tow truck?Copy !req
326. - It's the same sound as when Pete—
- Pete?Copy !req
327. Clark, what's going on?Copy !req
328. Lana, this is very important.
Go get my dad.Copy !req
329. - Help!
- Pete?Copy !req
330. Can anybody hear me?Copy !req
331. Pete!Copy !req
332. Clark!Copy !req
333. Clark, help!Copy !req
334. Clark, help!Copy !req
335. Shut up!Copy !req
336. Pete!Copy !req
337. Pete, where are you?Copy !req
338. How's that, blind man?Copy !req
339. Come on! Come on!Copy !req
340. Pete!Copy !req
341. - Any more improvement?
- A little, but everything's still a blur.Copy !req
342. - At least I won't walk through walls.
- What about your other abilities?Copy !req
343. The x-ray vision and heat vision,
they're still gone.Copy !req
344. Well, the heat from the torch
must've broken up the scar tissue.Copy !req
345. Maybe the rest will just
take time to heal.Copy !req
346. - Pete's still out there.
- Clark, Pete could be anywhere.Copy !req
347. You already told
Sheriff Adams everything.Copy !req
348. Well, I can't just sit here.Copy !req
349. Okay, but before we do anything else,
there's one stop we have to make.Copy !req
350. Clark, come on out.Copy !req
351. - Sweetie, they look fine.
- Yeah?Copy !req
352. - Yes.
- Yeah.Copy !req
353. Now, what's your plan to find Pete?Copy !req
354. The Masterson hearing is in an hour.
We know he's trying to set up an exchange.Copy !req
355. If Mrs. Ross lets him go,
I'll follow him.Copy !req
356. Son, that is such a long shot.Copy !req
357. That's all I've got.Copy !req
358. Was there any result with the change?Copy !req
359. All right, do it again.Copy !req
360. How long will that take?Copy !req
361. All right, call me when you're done.Copy !req
362. I guess this is the part where
I'm supposed to cough suggestively?Copy !req
363. I don't have any
new information on Clark.Copy !req
364. And if I did, I would've happily e-mailed
it to you, sans the three-hour drive.Copy !req
365. Would that have been before or after
you spoke to Lex?Copy !req
366. What are you talking about?Copy !req
367. You know, Miss Sullivan,
these coy evasions may work...Copy !req
368. when you're wheedling information out of
the high school librarian, but up here...Copy !req
369. you're out of your league.Copy !req
370. Mr. Luthor, what's this about?Copy !req
371. We had what I assumed
was a private conversation...Copy !req
372. but imagine my surprise to have Lex...Copy !req
373. throw my very own words
right back in my face.Copy !req
374. You led me to believe that you were
no longer in communication with Lex.Copy !req
375. Well, I'm not...Copy !req
376. but thank you for
the wildly offensive insinuation.Copy !req
377. Now, if you'll excuse me,
I'm on a deadline.Copy !req
378. Not anymore. Your column
at the Daily Planet's been canceled.Copy !req
379. What?Copy !req
380. All right, all right. Here's the deal.Copy !req
381. Tell me everything you fed to Lex,
I'll let things stand.Copy !req
382. I told you, I'm not Lex's source.Copy !req
383. And while I'm sure you could
kill my column...Copy !req
384. this isn't the only piece I'm working on
for the Daily Planet.Copy !req
385. I know I could interest them in a story
about an eccentric billionaire...Copy !req
386. with an obsessive interest
in a Kansas farm boy.Copy !req
387. Are you threatening me?Copy !req
388. I'd be careful, Miss Sullivan.
Very careful.Copy !req
389. I'll be whatever I want.Copy !req
390. Apparently, I don't work for you anymore.Copy !req
391. Judge, I've got people fanning out from
that garage trying to find your son.Copy !req
392. - But we are running out of time.
- I know.Copy !req
393. Releasing Masterson goes against
everything that I believe in.Copy !req
394. But if I don't...Copy !req
395. it could mean Pete's life.Copy !req
396. Look at him.
He knows he has us over a barrel.Copy !req
397. What are you gonna do?Copy !req
398. Until the hearing starts, pray.Copy !req
399. Hello?Copy !req
400. - Nathan.
- Talk to me.Copy !req
401. Everything's set.Copy !req
402. If this judge is smart,
I'll be out in 20 minutes.Copy !req
403. Cool. Then it worked?
So what do you want me to do next?Copy !req
404. When I'm out, get rid of the Ross kid.
We'll meet as planned in Metropolis.Copy !req
405. Done. Ross 'll be a pile of junk in a minute.Copy !req
406. Pete!Copy !req
407. Hey, you work here?Copy !req
408. What the hell?
What are you doing here?Copy !req
409. - Where's Pete?
- In a minute, neither one of you will care.Copy !req
410. Help me!Copy !req
411. Can anybody hear me?Copy !req
412. Help me!Copy !req
413. Help!Copy !req
414. Pete! Pete, are you okay?Copy !req
415. Clark.Copy !req
416. And that's the way I pulled myself
out of the compactor and got away.Copy !req
417. Oh, my God.
That's the bravest thing I've ever heard.Copy !req
418. Well, you know, if I didn't do something
fast, I'd be Spam in a can, so...Copy !req
419. Well, I'm glad you're okay.Copy !req
420. Call me.Copy !req
421. I will do that.Copy !req
422. I have a feeling I'll be hearing
this story for a long time.Copy !req
423. Busted.Copy !req
424. Well, you know, what can I say?
Chicks dig a hero.Copy !req
425. Hope you don't mind
I'm bending the truth.Copy !req
426. Look who you're talking to,
the master truth-bender.Copy !req
427. After everything you've done for me,
it's the least I can do.Copy !req
428. What's the matter?Copy !req
429. My eyes are just adjusting.
I think I need a new prescription.Copy !req
430. Hey.Copy !req
431. Hey, Chloe.
Hey, I'm ready for my big Torch interview.Copy !req
432. Sorry, Pete,
I'm gonna have to reschedule.Copy !req
433. - I'm really glad you're feeling better.
- Chloe, what's the matter?Copy !req
434. - I just lost my Daily Planet column.
- What?Copy !req
435. Why?Copy !req
436. They didn't exactly spell it out
on the pink slip.Copy !req
437. In the "when it rains, it pours" category,
my dad just got laid off from LuthorCorp.Copy !req
438. That doesn't make sense.
He's worked there for years.Copy !req
439. If you want answers, ask Lex.
He's the one that dropped the ax.Copy !req
440. Clark. I heard about
your miraculous recovery.Copy !req
441. I just found out that you fired
Chloe's father today.Copy !req
442. Yeah, well, apparently,
his performance was seriously lacking.Copy !req
443. He's worked for the company for years.
This could ruin Chloe's family.Copy !req
444. My father suspects Mr. Sullivan was the one
spreading the malicious rumors about me.Copy !req
445. I assumed Chloe overheard the gossip
and passed it along to you.Copy !req
446. - No, this isn't right.
- It's not about being right.Copy !req
447. It's about positioning.Copy !req
448. - My father won a battle today.
- And Chloe's father is a casualty.Copy !req
449. True, but the war's just starting...Copy !req
450. and I have the greatest advantage:Copy !req
451. He thinks I'm weak.Copy !req
452. Frankly, Clark,
I thought you'd be relieved.Copy !req
453. - Why would you think that?
- Because at least this way...Copy !req
454. I was able to keep you out of it.Copy !req
455. Looks like you're back to normal.Copy !req
456. Hey, Lana.Copy !req
457. I'm glad you're here.Copy !req
458. I wanted to talk about
what happened in the truck.Copy !req
459. Right. I wanted to talk to you
about that too.Copy !req
460. I was way out of line.Copy !req
461. - I felt vulnerable, but I don't expect—
- Clark...Copy !req
462. The reason I pulled away...Copy !req
463. is that...Copy !req
464. I met someone at the hospital.Copy !req
465. And I'm not sure how I feel about him.Copy !req
466. Well, I mean, the fact you're telling me
about him means you already know.Copy !req
467. Maybe you're right...Copy !req
468. but if you and l
are going to be friends...Copy !req
469. I didn't want you to find out
from somebody else.Copy !req
470. Yeah. Yeah.Copy !req
471. Well, I should get back to the Talon.Copy !req
472. Hey, Lana?Copy !req
473. Thanks for being honest.Copy !req
474. Well, it's the only way
a relationship can last, right?Copy !req
