1. Chloe.
Copy !req
2. Thought that was Gabe's car.
Copy !req
3. - What a surprise. I haven't seen you since—
- Since my Dad was fired from the plant.
Copy !req
4. - How's he doing?
- Hanging in there.
Copy !req
5. I don't think he ever expected the human
resources shuffle this late in his career.
Copy !req
6. He's a good man.
He'll land on his feet.
Copy !req
7. Actually, he sent out dozens of resumes
and hasn't even gotten a nibble.
Copy !req
8. I know this is beyond the call,
but Dad said...
Copy !req
9. you always kept your ear
close to the ground.
Copy !req
10. You think somebody could be sabotaging
his chances at a new job?
Copy !req
11. Chloe, you know
I'd do anything for Gabe...
Copy !req
12. but...
Copy !req
13. Lex is opening some projects
none of us want anything to do with.
Copy !req
14. Trust me, your Dad would be better off
to put LuthorCorp far behind him.
Copy !req
15. I need a decontamination
crew in Section 1978.
Copy !req
16. Send a security team.
Copy !req
17. - There she is!
- Cover corridor C.
Copy !req
18. You got it.
Copy !req
19. Hold it right there!
Copy !req
20. Hey, move it.
Copy !req
21. Chloe, hey! Chloe.
I've been trying to break through...
Copy !req
22. - ... to planet Chloe for two halls now.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
23. I guess I've had a lot on my mind.
Speaking of which...
Copy !req
24. Tell me I can cross your
teacher-of-the-year interview off my list.
Copy !req
25. Well, I called and I left a message,
but she didn't call back.
Copy !req
26. Clark. Okay, Clark.
Copy !req
27. I understand Mrs. Taylor is like Fort Knox
when it comes to her private life...
Copy !req
28. but journalism isn't sitting back,
waiting for someone to hand you the truth.
Copy !req
29. Sometimes,
you have to actually work for it.
Copy !req
30. And sometimes, timing is everything.
Okay, Clark.
Copy !req
31. Now go. And remember,
"no comment" is not an option.
Copy !req
32. Mrs. Taylor, I was wondering if we could
set a time for your Torch interview.
Copy !req
33. It'll be painless, I promise.
Copy !req
34. Actually, I'm really busy this week.
Copy !req
35. Mrs. Taylor, 10 minutes. Tops.
Copy !req
36. How about before lit class?
Does that work for you?
Copy !req
37. No, I'm printing a pop quiz
because I watched TV last night...
Copy !req
38. instead of prepping for class.
Copy !req
39. Did she really just say that?
Copy !req
40. - Hey, Pete, are we still on for tonight?
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
41. I gotta drop some stuff off for my mom,
but I should definitely be home for tip-off.
Copy !req
42. Another lovely evening
huddled around the electronic hearth.
Copy !req
43. Since Pete's supplying the big screen,
I got dinner.
Copy !req
44. What? Clark Kent in the kitchen?
Copy !req
45. What's on the menu?
Copy !req
46. Clark's gonna run to Metropolis
to get Shark Dogs from the stadium.
Copy !req
47. What? Whoa, whoa, back up.
Copy !req
48. You mean to tell me that Clark is driving
six hours to pick up a couple of hot dogs?
Copy !req
49. Well, when Clark goes supersonic,
he can make the roundtrip in 10 minutes.
Copy !req
50. He's kidding.
Copy !req
51. Come on, Pete, let's get to class.
Copy !req
52. - What was that?
- It just happened. I never meant to say that.
Copy !req
53. I just had this urge to tell the truth.
Copy !req
54. Well, next time you get the urge
to open up, don't.
Copy !req
55. Lex.
Copy !req
56. Thanks for dropping by.
Copy !req
57. Which of your obsessive-compulsive
fixations is behind today's summons?
Copy !req
58. I understand there was...
Copy !req
59. an incident at the Smallville plant
last night, correct?
Copy !req
60. A false alarm in the old wing.
Copy !req
61. Already taken care of it.
Copy !req
62. By scrambling the HAZMAT team?
Copy !req
63. Just a precaution.
Copy !req
64. Or a wild overreaction.
Copy !req
65. Unless, of course, a chemical agent
had actually been released.
Copy !req
66. I'm curious, Dad.
Copy !req
67. Why the sudden urge
to play micromanager?
Copy !req
68. Because I'm concerned about you, Lex.
Copy !req
69. You're not deliberately
concealing things from me...
Copy !req
70. are you?
Copy !req
71. We all have our secrets.
Copy !req
72. Okay, well, so far, we have
student accolades, testimonials...
Copy !req
73. Everything except for Mrs. Taylor herself.
Copy !req
74. Well, Chloe, if she doesn't want to talk,
maybe we should just let it go?
Copy !req
75. Hi.
Copy !req
76. - Oh, hi, Chloe.
- Hey, Mrs. Kent.
Copy !req
77. - Are there more in the truck?
- Yes, sweetheart, thank you.
Copy !req
78. I never got a chance to thank you
for the flowers after Jonathan's surgery.
Copy !req
79. Of course.
How's he feeling?
Copy !req
80. It's been really difficult.
He's depressed and angry.
Copy !req
81. I worry that when he comes out of this,
he won't be the same man I married.
Copy !req
82. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
83. How's Clark handling all this?
Copy !req
84. Of course, he feels responsible
for Jonathan's condition.
Copy !req
85. How could he be responsible
for Mr. Kent's heart attack?
Copy !req
86. It's not. It's his biological father's.
He's the one who drove Clark to Metropolis.
Copy !req
87. Mom.
Copy !req
88. Where do you want these?
Copy !req
89. Clark...
Copy !req
90. you found your biological father,
and you didn't tell me about it?
Copy !req
91. She meant figuratively.
Copy !req
92. You know, coming to grips with the fact
that my real parents didn't want me...
Copy !req
93. played a part
in what happened last summer.
Copy !req
94. Let's pick this up tomorrow.
Copy !req
95. Okay.
Copy !req
96. Bye.
Copy !req
97. Bye.
Copy !req
98. I can't believe I told Chloe about Jor-El.
Copy !req
99. I don't— I don't know what happened,
Clark.
Copy !req
100. Mom, it's okay. I don't think it's just you.
I think something has happened to Chloe.
Copy !req
101. Lana.
Copy !req
102. Hope I'm not interrupting.
Copy !req
103. No, I'm just finishing up
with the morning rush.
Copy !req
104. I haven't seen you around
the last few days.
Copy !req
105. I figured after our last conversation
you could use some space.
Copy !req
106. I was thinking the same thing,
but we don't seem to be very good at that.
Copy !req
107. It's hard to make yourself scarce
in Smallville.
Copy !req
108. Actually, I'm here because of Chloe.
Copy !req
109. Have you noticed anything
different about her?
Copy !req
110. I don't want to cross
the roommate boundaries, but...
Copy !req
111. this guy called for her yesterday
when she was out.
Copy !req
112. An old coworker of her dad's.
Copy !req
113. - From LuthorCorp?
- Yeah, and he sounded really upset.
Copy !req
114. He was wondering
if she had taken his security card.
Copy !req
115. Klepto Chloe?
Copy !req
116. That doesn't sound like her.
Copy !req
117. He said whoever stole it broke into a lab
at the plant two nights ago.
Copy !req
118. Mrs. Taylor?
Copy !req
119. Hi, Mrs. Taylor. I'm sorry to be pulling
the 60 Minutes card...
Copy !req
120. but I'm crashing a deadline.
Can we just pop this off really quick?
Copy !req
121. Only because you'll never let me
off the hook.
Copy !req
122. It must be cool having
the best teacher in school as a mom.
Copy !req
123. I'm used to her being the best
at everything she does.
Copy !req
124. Okay. We'll just start with the obvious.
What do you like about teaching?
Copy !req
125. I enjoy the students.
Copy !req
126. Okay. Any downsides?
Copy !req
127. Always having to hide the truth.
Copy !req
128. I'm sorry.
The truth about what?
Copy !req
129. That Mrs. Taylor doesn't exist.
Copy !req
130. My real name is Marianne Lewis...
Copy !req
131. and I've been running from my past
since 1972.
Copy !req
132. I don't understand. What did you do?
Copy !req
133. I was part of a radical group.
Copy !req
134. We planted explosives
outside a bank in Seattle.
Copy !req
135. We were just trying to make a statement.
Copy !req
136. But one of the guards came in early...
Copy !req
137. and when the bomb went off...
Copy !req
138. Mrs. Taylor, are you saying
you're wanted for murder?
Copy !req
139. I just drove the car.
Copy !req
140. I swear, I never meant for anyone to die.
Copy !req
141. Mom, what are you saying?
Copy !req
142. I should've told you this years ago.
Copy !req
143. I'm so sorry.
Copy !req
144. - Okay, Mrs. Taylor—
- No! Get away from her.
Copy !req
145. Okay? Just leave us alone.
Come on.
Copy !req
146. I'm so sorry, Willy.
I should have told you.
Copy !req
147. I just couldn't make myself.
Copy !req
148. Congratulations, Chloe. Within 24 hours,
you managed to tick off the entire school.
Copy !req
149. You don't earn your
press pass by making friends.
Copy !req
150. - Police should be handling this.
- Clark, I uncovered a murder.
Copy !req
151. With your new ability.
Copy !req
152. You broke into the LuthorCorp plant
the other night, didn't you?
Copy !req
153. - Something happened?
- Wow.
Copy !req
154. There may be some journalistic genes
behind those baby blues after all.
Copy !req
155. People are telling you things they don't
want you to know. It's not a joke.
Copy !req
156. No, but it is every reporter's dream.
Copy !req
157. Rebecca.
Copy !req
158. When the entire geometry class
got C's on the final...
Copy !req
159. how is it possible that you aced it?
Copy !req
160. I swiped the answer key
the day before the test.
Copy !req
161. You're not gonna tell anybody, are you?
Copy !req
162. Mindy!
Copy !req
163. Hey, Mindy.
Copy !req
164. You're always so upbeat.
Copy !req
165. Does anything bother you?
Copy !req
166. Are you kidding? Do you have any idea
how hard it is to cheer for a losing team?
Copy !req
167. Mindy, what are you talking about?
Copy !req
168. Doug, if you could take anyone to prom,
who would you take?
Copy !req
169. That would be Fitz.
Copy !req
170. Thomas Fitzpatrick, the quarterback?
Copy !req
171. Wow. I didn't expect that one.
Copy !req
172. Hey, it's cool. It's off-the-record.
Copy !req
173. My God, Clark, this is amazing!
Copy !req
174. Can you imagine
the stories I could break?
Copy !req
175. I could crack
the mystery that is Clark Kent.
Copy !req
176. What do you keep hiding from me?
Copy !req
177. I can't believe you asked that.
Copy !req
178. And you didn't answer.
Copy !req
179. Everyone else would have.
Copy !req
180. What are you so afraid of, Clark?
Copy !req
181. That I'll get behind that armor
and finally uncover your secret?
Copy !req
182. Clark. Last time I checked,
this area is restricted.
Copy !req
183. Hey, Lex.
Copy !req
184. Sorry about just walking around.
The outside door was unlocked.
Copy !req
185. Actually, it looked broken to me...
Copy !req
186. but I'll have a word
with my security people.
Copy !req
187. Want to tell me why you're here?
Copy !req
188. I'm worried about a friend.
Copy !req
189. That friend wouldn't have happened
to break in a few nights ago, would they?
Copy !req
190. Clark, why didn't you come to me?
Copy !req
191. Last time I did that, I had my conversations
hand-delivered to the FBI.
Copy !req
192. Clark, whatever deal I've made
with the feds, your family is off-limits.
Copy !req
193. I was kind of hoping
you might return the favor.
Copy !req
194. Now, you mind telling me
what you were doing down here?
Copy !req
195. It wasn't me.
Copy !req
196. Lex, there's something happening
to my friend, and...
Copy !req
197. What were you working on down here?
Copy !req
198. An old project of my father's.
Copy !req
199. I was trying to salvage something
from his failure.
Copy !req
200. Then where is everything?
Copy !req
201. I decided to cut my losses.
Copy !req
202. Clark...
Copy !req
203. we didn't get far enough
to gauge the potential side effects.
Copy !req
204. If this friend was exposed to anything,
there could be a serious health risk.
Copy !req
205. Now, it's hard for me to help
unless I know who it is.
Copy !req
206. How could you print this?
Copy !req
207. Thanks to you, my mom had to go
into hiding. Police are looking for her.
Copy !req
208. I'm sorry, William, I just printed the truth.
I can't be held responsible for that.
Copy !req
209. You ruined my life.
Copy !req
210. Was it just me, or did I completely
clear out the lunch crowd?
Copy !req
211. No, it was you.
Copy !req
212. Ever since you turned the Torch
into your own gossip column...
Copy !req
213. no one can stand being around you.
Copy !req
214. At least you're still talking to me, right?
Copy !req
215. For now.
Copy !req
216. Okay. What's that about?
Copy !req
217. I applied to the Paris School of the Arts.
Copy !req
218. They have a full-time high-school program,
and if I get accepted, I start in the summer.
Copy !req
219. Wow. I guess I'm out of the loop.
When did you decide this?
Copy !req
220. I've been thinking about it
for a while now.
Copy !req
221. Everyone has their families, you know,
and I'm not sure where I fit in.
Copy !req
222. - But I always thought we were your family.
- Oh, come on, Chloe.
Copy !req
223. I know what you
and everyone else thinks of me.
Copy !req
224. That I'm driven and self-involved.
Copy !req
225. I just can't wait to get out of here and go
somewhere where people don't judge me.
Copy !req
226. I never said anything like that.
Copy !req
227. You never had to.
Copy !req
228. Why have you never
talked to me about this?
Copy !req
229. Because I couldn't trust you.
Copy !req
230. Chloe, thanks for coming.
Copy !req
231. Yeah, well, I only have a minute.
Copy !req
232. Clark just called me about a story
that broke at the hospital, so...
Copy !req
233. Then you can give me the abridged version
of your trip to LuthorCorp the other night.
Copy !req
234. Let me guess...
Copy !req
235. somehow, no one can resist
telling you the truth.
Copy !req
236. Are you looking for an apology?
Copy !req
237. No.
Copy !req
238. Chloe...
Copy !req
239. I want you to use your gift to help me
get back the weeks my father stole from me.
Copy !req
240. I don't think your Dad would go to such
extremes to destroy those memories...
Copy !req
241. if they didn't pose
some sort of a threat to him.
Copy !req
242. Maybe you should just leave it alone.
Copy !req
243. Why do I get the feeling you know
more about this than you're letting on?
Copy !req
244. I don't know anything about that.
Copy !req
245. But I do know that because of you,
my dad can't get a job. Why help you?
Copy !req
246. Because my father is the one
who ordered his dismissal.
Copy !req
247. You know that's the truth, don't you?
Copy !req
248. Meaning that my family's future
is just one chess move...
Copy !req
249. in the endless game of one-upmanship
played by you and your dad?
Copy !req
250. It's not a game, Chloe.
Copy !req
251. You're the only one
who can get me the truth.
Copy !req
252. Why do you keep doing this to yourself?
Copy !req
253. Why can't you just
walk away from your father?
Copy !req
254. Because he won't give me
the only thing I've ever wanted from him.
Copy !req
255. And that would be?
Copy !req
256. I want him to love me.
Copy !req
257. Pete. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
258. Chloe said you had some big story.
Copy !req
259. I just told her that.
Copy !req
260. The way she's acting, I thought it was
the only way to get her to the hospital.
Copy !req
261. Is she okay?
Copy !req
262. She got doused with something.
It's making her sick.
Copy !req
263. Some sort of truth gas.
Copy !req
264. Which would explain
the vise grip on my arm.
Copy !req
265. I can take a hint. You want me out of here
before the human lie detector shows up.
Copy !req
266. - Hey, Pete.
- Chloe.
Copy !req
267. No, wait.
Now, enough is enough.
Copy !req
268. Everyone seems to be on the "run away
from Chloe" bandwagon today. Why you?
Copy !req
269. I'm trying to stay away from you
so I don't tell you the truth.
Copy !req
270. - Remember that story I called you about?
- Yeah, we can talk about this story later.
Copy !req
271. Right now, I want to know why you guys
are playing such a zone defense on me.
Copy !req
272. What is the big secret, Pete?
Copy !req
273. I'm in love with you, Chloe.
Copy !req
274. I've been waiting to do that
ever since the first day that I met you.
Copy !req
275. Okay, whoa, Pete.
Copy !req
276. Why didn't you tell me this sooner?
Copy !req
277. Because I knew the way
you felt about Clark.
Copy !req
278. And I never saw the point.
Copy !req
279. - Pete, wait.
- Chloe, listen.
Copy !req
280. If Clark's right and there's something
wrong with you, then take care of it.
Copy !req
281. Please.
Copy !req
282. Chloe? Are you okay?
Copy !req
283. I need some help!
Copy !req
284. Please!
Copy !req
285. - What's her name?
- Chloe.
Copy !req
286. Chloe, we're going
to take you down to Exam 3.
Copy !req
287. You're gonna be okay.
Have you had anything to eat today?
Copy !req
288. - Yeah, a little.
- When did you...?
Copy !req
289. Clark, I've been looking for you.
They arrested Mrs. Taylor.
Copy !req
290. I know. It's been all over the lnternet.
Copy !req
291. So long as you're online, wanna ask Jeeves
how long it takes to die of embarrassment?
Copy !req
292. Pete, how come you didn't
tell me how you felt about Chloe?
Copy !req
293. It's not like I ever had a chance with her.
Copy !req
294. - What would make you say that?
- Because I'm always standing next to you.
Copy !req
295. Oh, come on, Clark.
Copy !req
296. As far as long shadows go,
you're the dark side of the moon.
Copy !req
297. - Why are you looking through Chloe's files?
- I'm worried about her.
Copy !req
298. She was working on a story
about a LuthorCorp project called Levitas.
Copy !req
299. This retired military doctor,
General Jonah Doyle...
Copy !req
300. claims he was part
of the first test five years ago.
Copy !req
301. Sounds like a crackpot.
Copy !req
302. It's our only lead.
Copy !req
303. Everything looks normal.
Copy !req
304. I'll be right back.
Copy !req
305. - That wasn't very long.
- Miss Sullivan.
Copy !req
306. You look a bit peaked.
Copy !req
307. Well, I suppose a steady diet of truth
can wear on a person.
Copy !req
308. I understand you've borrowed
one of our LuthorCorp security cards.
Copy !req
309. I was just trying to help my dad.
Copy !req
310. What did you do, blacklist him?
Copy !req
311. You're damn right I blacklisted him.
He'll be lucky to find a job as a dishwasher.
Copy !req
312. Well, I warned you there'd be repercussions
if you defied me. I'm a man of my word.
Copy !req
313. There's only one way to find out.
Copy !req
314. What?
Copy !req
315. Did you order Morgan Edge
to kill your parents?
Copy !req
316. Of course I did.
For their life insurance.
Copy !req
317. I needed that money
to start my company.
Copy !req
318. I'm sorry you asked me
that question, Miss Sullivan.
Copy !req
319. That's very dangerous information
for you to have.
Copy !req
320. Why did you ask me that?
Copy !req
321. That's not important.
This is.
Copy !req
322. Of course I did.
For their life insurance.
Copy !req
323. I have your entire confession
recorded on my voice mail...
Copy !req
324. and the only person
that has the password is me.
Copy !req
325. So if I were you, I would reconsider
my father's employment situation.
Copy !req
326. I'm impressed, but unfortunately,
I don't respond to blackmail.
Copy !req
327. But, you know, this isn't what's gonna get
your father's job back.
Copy !req
328. - Then what would?
- lnformation...
Copy !req
329. from an especially intransigent source.
Copy !req
330. Does this source have a name?
Copy !req
331. Two, actually.
Jonathan and Martha Kent.
Copy !req
332. But you need only ask one question.
Copy !req
333. Why would I ever do that?
Copy !req
334. Because I know you have a special place
in your heart for their son...
Copy !req
335. and it's killing you
that he's hiding something from you.
Copy !req
336. And we both know that this may be
the only opportunity you'll ever have...
Copy !req
337. to find out what that is.
Copy !req
338. And what exactly is it
that you want to know?
Copy !req
339. Where did Clark Kent come from?
Copy !req
340. You need a lesson in manners.
Copy !req
341. I'm here to talk to you
about the Levitas project.
Copy !req
342. I know that LuthorCorp was the contractor
when you were in charge.
Copy !req
343. They've resumed the experiment.
Copy !req
344. - Lionel Luthor send you?
- No.
Copy !req
345. I need to know
how the drug affects people.
Copy !req
346. Over there.
Copy !req
347. We were trying to create
the ultimate interrogator.
Copy !req
348. Why did you stop?
Copy !req
349. I balked over safety issues.
Copy !req
350. Luthor retaliated by arranging
for a disappointing psych report...
Copy !req
351. and a dishonorable discharge.
Copy !req
352. Mr. Doyle, a friend of mine
stumbled into the LuthorCorp lab...
Copy !req
353. that was continuing
the Levitas research.
Copy !req
354. I think she was exposed—
Copy !req
355. Is your friend showing symptoms?
Copy !req
356. She's been having headaches.
Copy !req
357. My guess is your friend
will be dead by morning.
Copy !req
358. - Dead?
- That's why I suspended the project.
Copy !req
359. We suspected the gas would work.
Copy !req
360. But the toxicity levels
were off the charts.
Copy !req
361. Is there anything that can help her?
Copy !req
362. Just before the project went down,
I was working on a possible counteractant.
Copy !req
363. It was never tested.
Copy !req
364. If I have to use this,
how much do I give her?
Copy !req
365. Hit her with a full dose.
Right in the heart.
Copy !req
366. Excuse me.
I'm looking for Chloe Sullivan.
Copy !req
367. So are we. She left
without being officially discharged.
Copy !req
368. - Clark. What a surprise.
- Is it?
Copy !req
369. I know about your human truth serum.
Copy !req
370. The Levitas project.
Copy !req
371. Levitas...?
Copy !req
372. Levita— I think we abandoned
that project five, seven years ago.
Copy !req
373. You're lying.
Copy !req
374. That's a provocative accusation, Clark,
especially coming from you.
Copy !req
375. I don't believe you're here
just to check on Chloe's health.
Copy !req
376. Did you get her to work for you again?
Ask more questions about me?
Copy !req
377. Whatever I ask her to do, Clark,
is in search of the truth.
Copy !req
378. She might die.
Copy !req
379. You couldn't care less.
Copy !req
380. Come on.
Copy !req
381. - Hello?
- Chloe, it's Clark.
Copy !req
382. You have to get back to the hospital now.
What you have might kill you.
Copy !req
383. You're just saying that
so you can stop me.
Copy !req
384. Stop you from what?
Copy !req
385. Do you know what it's like
to look at your best friend...
Copy !req
386. and know he is lying?
Copy !req
387. I can't do this anymore.
Copy !req
388. Chloe.
Copy !req
389. Chloe, talk to me.
Copy !req
390. Chloe! Are you all right, Chloe?
Talk to me.
Copy !req
391. You have to let me help you.
Copy !req
392. Chloe.
Copy !req
393. I warned you to leave us alone!
Copy !req
394. My mother doesn't deserve to be in jail!
Copy !req
395. Chloe?
Copy !req
396. Clark! Clark, I'm at the Coughlin Bridge!
Please help me!
Copy !req
397. Chloe! It's gonna be okay.
Copy !req
398. - Well, that's it. No need to call back.
- Two invitations to your office in one week.
Copy !req
399. I should be flattered.
Copy !req
400. You should be more careful.
Copy !req
401. In the future, if you want to reactivate
one of my old projects...
Copy !req
402. son, all you have to do is ask.
Copy !req
403. If you made more of an effort to keep me
informed, I wouldn't resort to subterfuge.
Copy !req
404. I am trying to understand, Lex, why you
would be so desperate to learn the truth...
Copy !req
405. that you would resort
to using a dangerously unstable drug.
Copy !req
406. I guess the truth
has never really held much merit for you.
Copy !req
407. Now, I'm losing my patience, Lex.
Copy !req
408. You are constantly defensive with me.
Copy !req
409. Now, tell me, damn it,
what is it you want from me?
Copy !req
410. It doesn't really matter, Dad.
Copy !req
411. I'm never going to get it.
Copy !req
412. Chloe, how are you feeling?
Copy !req
413. A little shaky.
Copy !req
414. But I'm totally truth-serum free.
Copy !req
415. Whatever you Pulp Fiction-ed into my
chest not only kick-started my heart...
Copy !req
416. but also relieved me
of any Levitas in my system, so...
Copy !req
417. that's good.
Copy !req
418. - Did you hear what happened to William?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
419. Between his mother's past
and her arrest...
Copy !req
420. he took quite a hit.
Copy !req
421. I never meant to hurt him.
Copy !req
422. His mom's the one
who should've told him.
Copy !req
423. But that's the thing about the truth.
Copy !req
424. It's bound to come out, sooner or later.
Copy !req
425. Then I guess it's my turn to come clean.
Copy !req
426. When you found me on the bridge,
I was on my way here.
Copy !req
427. I was gonna ask your parents
all the questions you would never answer.
Copy !req
428. Look...
Copy !req
429. I know "I'm sorry" has become
a recurring motif in our relationship, but—
Copy !req
430. No, Chloe...
Copy !req
431. I appreciate your honesty,
but you weren't yourself.
Copy !req
432. I really wish I could believe that.
Copy !req
433. But there have been so many times
my curiosity has gotten the best of me.
Copy !req
434. - Maybe this is just who I am.
- No. You're going after the truth.
Copy !req
435. Nothing wrong with that.
Copy !req
436. Unless it hurts the people
you care the most about.
Copy !req
437. I'm just afraid that one day
I'm gonna push too hard...
Copy !req
438. and I'm not going to get
the chance to say I'm sorry.
Copy !req
439. Today's not that day.
Copy !req
440. Clark. Thanks for coming by.
Copy !req
441. Is everything okay? I haven't gotten
many phone messages from you lately.
Copy !req
442. Yeah.
Copy !req
443. I've been wanting to show you this.
Copy !req
444. Paris?
Copy !req
445. I sent in my application last week.
Copy !req
446. I don't understand.
Copy !req
447. I'm leaving.
Copy !req
448. - Lana, if this is because of me—
- No.
Copy !req
449. No.
Copy !req
450. Because of everything.
Copy !req
451. I'm beginning to feel like
I need a fresh start.
Copy !req
452. What about your life here?
What about your friends?
Copy !req
453. Well, maybe I'll wind up
in Smallville eventually, but...
Copy !req
454. I don't think I can be happy, wondering
if there's something else out there.
Copy !req
455. Why didn't you tell me sooner?
Copy !req
456. Because...
Copy !req
457. I didn't want anyone
to talk me out of it.
Copy !req
458. And the truth is...
Copy !req
459. I knew you were
the only person that could.
Copy !req
460. Thank you for using KansCom.

Copy !req
462. Hello, Miss Sullivan. It's only me.
Copy !req
463. Oh, no need to look
for that conversation we had earlier.
Copy !req
464. That's gone, and...
Copy !req
465. Well, that's it. No need to call back.
Copy !req
466. You have no more messages.
