1. Hello, Clark.
Copy !req
2. My name is Kara.
Copy !req
3. I'm from Krypton.
Copy !req
4. Original Airdate May 19, 2004
Copy !req
5. Kara, I don't know where you heard
about Krypton...
Copy !req
6. but an astronomer told me
that planet was destroyed.
Copy !req
7. Its physical form is gone...
Copy !req
8. but it still lives on through us.
Copy !req
9. Here, this will warm you up.
Copy !req
10. It's hot tea.
Copy !req
11. Young lady...
Copy !req
12. your parents must be worried.
Why don't you let us call them.
Copy !req
13. There's no one to call.
Copy !req
14. Well, you can't sleep out in the field.
You'll stay with us tonight.
Copy !req
15. Thank you. I heard you were very kind.
Copy !req
16. How exactly did you get here?
Copy !req
17. I came through a passage in the cave wall.
Copy !req
18. A passage from where?
Copy !req
19. A place where all your questions
will be answered.
Copy !req
20. Where you don't have to hide
your true self.
Copy !req
21. Look, if you really are from some distant
planet, why don't you us a favor, huh?
Copy !req
22. Give us a display
of all of your special abilities.
Copy !req
23. - Dad...
- Clark...
Copy !req
24. you told me yourself that Pete's
being harassed by the FBI.
Copy !req
25. How do we know
that this isn't just some ploy?
Copy !req
26. Jonathan Kent, you have no place
in this conversation.
Copy !req
27. I will show Kal-El
all he needs to see in due time.
Copy !req
28. Where did you hear that name?
Copy !req
29. It was given to you at birth.
Copy !req
30. Why are you here?
Copy !req
31. To take you home.
Copy !req
32. Clark?
Copy !req
33. Lex.
Copy !req
34. - Hey, do you have a second?
- This is...
Copy !req
35. good a time as any.
Copy !req
36. I thought you'd be out celebrating.
Your dad's finally behind bars.
Copy !req
37. My father has a battalion of lawyers
more powerful than Caesar's army.
Copy !req
38. He'll be out on bail
in less than 48 hours.
Copy !req
39. I don't think the judge is gonna
let a murderer out on the street.
Copy !req
40. The only way he'll be denied bail
is if there's evidence at his hearing...
Copy !req
41. - he's an imminent threat to society.
- What about Chloe's voice mail?
Copy !req
42. The one with your dad's confession on it?
That can be damaging.
Copy !req
43. It will be, for the grand jury.
Copy !req
44. But in order to deny him bail,
they need eyewitnesses.
Copy !req
45. People who've seen my father
actually inflict harm.
Copy !req
46. Unfortunately, anyone who's been privy
to his darkest moments...
Copy !req
47. is either dead
or unwilling to come forward.
Copy !req
48. I'll come forward.
Copy !req
49. I appreciate the support, Clark,
but they need an eyewitness.
Copy !req
50. I saw him at Belle Reve.
Copy !req
51. I saw him order the doctor
to increase your electroshock voltage...
Copy !req
52. even when the doctor said
it could turn you into a vegetable.
Copy !req
53. How could you have seen that?
Copy !req
54. I snuck in to try to save you...
Copy !req
55. but I was too late.
Copy !req
56. You knew all along my father murdered
his parents, didn't you?
Copy !req
57. And you never told me.
Copy !req
58. - Lex...
- I assumed there was an agreement...
Copy !req
59. among friends to share that kind
of information.
Copy !req
60. Not when it can get your friend killed.
Copy !req
61. Lex, your father threw you in
a mental institution and fried your brain.
Copy !req
62. If you found that out all over again...
Copy !req
63. I thought he'd kill you.
And I couldn't live with that.
Copy !req
64. You're a good friend, Clark.
Copy !req
65. If you tell the judge
what you just told me...
Copy !req
66. my father will be exchanging his Armani
for an orange jumpsuit.
Copy !req
67. I'll be there. You can count on it.
Copy !req
68. Six-one, clear. Opening up.
Copy !req
69. I thought we had a deal, Loder.
Copy !req
70. I tipped you off on Lex's wire...
Copy !req
71. I made sure discriminating
recordings disappeared...
Copy !req
72. I can't control a bleached blond,
Pulitzer-wannabe...
Copy !req
73. from dredging up evidence
for a decades-old homicide.
Copy !req
74. And our other investigation? Lex's
friend? What's the status of that?
Copy !req
75. You're a piece of work.
Copy !req
76. In case you haven't noticed, you're a hop,
skip and a jump from death row...
Copy !req
77. and no hick farm kid's secret's gonna
be able to save your ass.
Copy !req
78. This is an inconvenience.
I'll be out on bail in a couple of hours.
Copy !req
79. Then I expect you to send me the
information you've gathered on Clark Kent.
Copy !req
80. You can expect to be waiting
for a very long time.
Copy !req
81. Our deal's over, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
82. You're venturing into
dangerous waters, Loder.
Copy !req
83. I'm a pretty decent swimmer.
Night-night.
Copy !req
84. Opening 6-1.
Copy !req
85. You shouldn't involve yourself
in their problems.
Copy !req
86. - Lex is my friend. I want to help him.
- You can't trust him.
Copy !req
87. You don't know him.
Copy !req
88. I don't have to.
Copy !req
89. It's human nature.
It's just who they are.
Copy !req
90. They happen to be the people I care about.
Copy !req
91. Which is why it will be that much harder
when they all betray you.
Copy !req
92. I can understand why you're scared.
Copy !req
93. This is all you know.
Copy !req
94. But you're not meant
for this world, Kal-El.
Copy !req
95. You were meant for mine.
Copy !req
96. My name's Clark.
Copy !req
97. - Why should I believe anything you say?
- Because it's the truth.
Copy !req
98. Really?
Copy !req
99. Why don't you start by telling me
where you've been for the last 14 years?
Copy !req
100. If you join me...
Copy !req
101. all your questions will be answered.
Copy !req
102. That's not good enough.
Copy !req
103. Kal-El, wait.
Copy !req
104. Come with me.
Copy !req
105. - How are you doing this?
- You're doing it too.
Copy !req
106. I can't fly.
Copy !req
107. Not yet.
Copy !req
108. This is just the beginning, Kal-El.
Copy !req
109. You have no idea
how powerful you'll become.
Copy !req
110. This fissure wasn't here last week.
Copy !req
111. It opened to release me.
Copy !req
112. It'll open again when we go.
Copy !req
113. What makes you think
I don't like this world?
Copy !req
114. I can sense how sad you are, Kal-El.
Copy !req
115. Not a day goes by where you don't
feel like an outsider.
Copy !req
116. Even those closest to you will never
truly understand you.
Copy !req
117. But it doesn't have to be that way.
Copy !req
118. You've been down here
ever since the meteor shower?
Copy !req
119. Yes.
Copy !req
120. Waiting for the time
when he knew you'd be ready.
Copy !req
121. He?
Copy !req
122. Your birth father.
Copy !req
123. Jor-El.
Copy !req
124. - He died in Krypton.
- Yes...
Copy !req
125. but his spirit and will live on
inside these walls.
Copy !req
126. I should've known.
Copy !req
127. He's not the monster that you imagine.
Copy !req
128. He saved your life.
Copy !req
129. To turn me into something
I never wanted to be.
Copy !req
130. You may think you know your destiny...
Copy !req
131. but you've no idea what greatness
lies ahead of you.
Copy !req
132. Then why don't you tell me?
Copy !req
133. I'm only here to help your transition.
Copy !req
134. Everything that you want to know...
Copy !req
135. lies through there.
Copy !req
136. But it has to be your choice.
Copy !req
137. Come with me, Kal-El.
Copy !req
138. I can't do this.
Copy !req
139. Just know...
Copy !req
140. when you're ready...
Copy !req
141. I'll be waiting for you.
Copy !req
142. Orange is a good color for you, Dad...
Copy !req
143. although it might get a little old
after 25 to life.
Copy !req
144. I didn't ask you here to trade insults.
Copy !req
145. No matter how wide...
Copy !req
146. the chasm gets between us, son...
Copy !req
147. I'm your father. I'll always be your father.
Copy !req
148. And the devil that's haunted me
since the day I was born.
Copy !req
149. Lex, this is not easy for me.
Copy !req
150. As a father...
Copy !req
151. I...
Copy !req
152. I have failed you.
Copy !req
153. I realize that now.
Copy !req
154. And...
Copy !req
155. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
156. Two years ago I was diagnosed with a...
Copy !req
157. A degenerative liver disease.
Copy !req
158. I've tried everything,
everything imaginable...
Copy !req
159. but...
Copy !req
160. there's nothing.
Copy !req
161. It's too late.
Copy !req
162. No amount of money can save me.
Copy !req
163. Lex...
Copy !req
164. please...
Copy !req
165. don't let me die in prison.
Copy !req
166. Dad...
Copy !req
167. this might have been more effective...
Copy !req
168. if you had a string quartet in the corner
playing "Barber's Requiem."
Copy !req
169. I understand.
Copy !req
170. How could you trust me?
Copy !req
171. I've asked my doctors...
Copy !req
172. to release my medical files to you.
You can see for yourself.
Copy !req
173. She hasn't eaten anything
since she's been here.
Copy !req
174. Martha, her appetite
is the least of our problems.
Copy !req
175. I think she's for real.
Copy !req
176. I think Jor-El sent her.
Copy !req
177. - Are you sure?
- How else can we explain her powers?
Copy !req
178. This is Smallville. Kryptonite's given
a lot of people special abilities.
Copy !req
179. She knows my birth name.
She knows everything.
Copy !req
180. She doesn't know anything more
about you than Dr. Swann.
Copy !req
181. - Do you think Swann sent Kara?
- I've no idea what his agenda is.
Copy !req
182. But wherever this girl is from,
I don't trust her.
Copy !req
183. You're the one who cannot be trusted,
Jonathan Kent.
Copy !req
184. You broke the covenant.
Copy !req
185. Jor-El gave you many warnings,
but you chose not to listen to them.
Copy !req
186. What is she talking about, Jonathan?
Copy !req
187. Tell Kal-El what you did.
Copy !req
188. What kind of deal did you make, Dad?
Copy !req
189. I promised Jor-El
that if he gave me the power...
Copy !req
190. to bring you back from Metropolis...
Copy !req
191. that one day I'd return you to him.
Copy !req
192. Jonathan, you didn't do that.
Copy !req
193. - Martha, I had no idea
it was gonna be this soon. - No.
Copy !req
194. I told you, Kal-El.
They'll always betray you.
Copy !req
195. Even the man you call your father.
Copy !req
196. - I did not betray my son.
- Quiet.
Copy !req
197. Someone's listening.
Copy !req
198. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
199. How'd you do that?
Copy !req
200. Who are you?
Copy !req
201. Get out of my way!
Copy !req
202. What did you do to him?
Copy !req
203. That man feared you, Kal-El.
Copy !req
204. - He wanted to exploit you.
- So you killed him?
Copy !req
205. He didn't feel any pain.
Copy !req
206. She killed a man, Jonathan.
We have to call the sheriff.
Copy !req
207. What are we gonna tell the sheriff? A
Kryptonian girl vaporized a federal agent?
Copy !req
208. - What have you invited into our lives?
- Martha...
Copy !req
209. I don't believe I
had another choice.
Copy !req
210. How could you have made that decision
without talking to me?
Copy !req
211. It was the only way
that I could get him back.
Copy !req
212. Why would you keep it a secret?
Copy !req
213. I didn't want you to have to wait
for the rest of your life...
Copy !req
214. worrying about something
that might never happen.
Copy !req
215. Do you really think Jor-El
will ever give up on Clark?
Copy !req
216. I can't sit idly by while he takes our son.
Copy !req
217. We might not have a choice.
That girl is more powerful than Clark.
Copy !req
218. - Mr. Kent?
- So this is the legendary Torch.
Copy !req
219. Yeah. A little less glamorous
than you imagined, huh?
Copy !req
220. If you're looking for Clark,
I haven't seen a trace of him.
Copy !req
221. I was looking for you.
Copy !req
222. Something's telling me you're not
throwing a tea party.
Copy !req
223. I understand that you're very good
at getting to the bottom of things.
Copy !req
224. Do you think you could...
Copy !req
225. run the fingerprints
off of this for me?
Copy !req
226. No problem.
Copy !req
227. Is there a name that's attached
to the fingerprints?
Copy !req
228. That's what I need to find out, Chloe.
Copy !req
229. I need the identity of the last person
to touch that cup.
Copy !req
230. Okay.
Copy !req
231. If I could get a little more info
on this mystery, it might help-
Copy !req
232. Chloe, as a personal favor to me,
please don't press the issue.
Copy !req
233. Okay. Yeah.
Copy !req
234. I'll call my guy right now.
Copy !req
235. Thank you.
Copy !req
236. It's gonna take a little while.
Copy !req
237. Of course.
Copy !req
238. I thought you'd be packing.
Copy !req
239. Well, if I squeeze anything else into
my suitcases, I think they'd explode.
Copy !req
240. So when are you taking off?
Copy !req
241. Well, I have to be at the airport
by noon tomorrow.
Copy !req
242. That's sort of why I'm here.
Copy !req
243. I was wondering if you would mind
being my SuperShuttle.
Copy !req
244. Sure.
Copy !req
245. I know it's been a strange year...
Copy !req
246. but I hate leaving with the feeling
things aren't settled between us.
Copy !req
247. - Lana, when I said I want you to be happy-
- When you invited me over...
Copy !req
248. and you had something important
to tell me, that wasn't it, was it?
Copy !req
249. Clark, if you have something to say to me,
say it before I'm gone.
Copy !req
250. - Lana...
- Who's that?
Copy !req
251. My cousin.
Copy !req
252. You've never mentioned her before.
Copy !req
253. Where's she from?
Copy !req
254. Far away. California.
Copy !req
255. Well, you know, if you...
If you've got company, I should...
Copy !req
256. - I should find a ride from someone else.
- Lana.
Copy !req
257. Even though it's gonna be hard to see
you go, I wanna be there for you.
Copy !req
258. We'll talk in the car? Tomorrow?
Copy !req
259. She really does love you.
Copy !req
260. But it's not meant to be.
You know that.
Copy !req
261. No one knows what's meant to be.
Copy !req
262. Not you, not even Jor-El.
Copy !req
263. Don't let it upset you, Kal-El.
Copy !req
264. What you share with Lana
is an earthly love...
Copy !req
265. filled with doubts,
and pain and sorrow.
Copy !req
266. The love between us will be stronger
than anything you can imagine.
Copy !req
267. You and I are the only ones left, Kal-El.
Copy !req
268. We're the only ones
who can preserve the Kryptonian race.
Copy !req
269. Come with me, Kal-El.
Copy !req
270. Come home.
Copy !req
271. This is my home.
Copy !req
272. I know it seems that way...
Copy !req
273. but sooner or later everyone you know
here will lie, betray or leave you.
Copy !req
274. No matter what you say...
Copy !req
275. I'll never go with you.
Copy !req
276. Clark Kent?
Copy !req
277. I have a package for you.
Copy !req
278. Who's it from?
Copy !req
279. A Mr. Lionel Luthor.
Copy !req
280. Johns Hopkins, the Mayo Clinic.
Copy !req
281. My father's knocked on the door...
Copy !req
282. of every major medical institution
in the Western world...
Copy !req
283. and was sent home each time
without a cure.
Copy !req
284. I'm sensing you're having second thoughts.
Copy !req
285. Lex, I understand if you want to back out.
Copy !req
286. He needs to be punished for what he did,
but he's still your father and he's dying.
Copy !req
287. Yeah...
Copy !req
288. and he's gonna draw his last
breath in prison...
Copy !req
289. not the VIP suite at Metropolis General.
Copy !req
290. But only if you're still willing
to go through with this.
Copy !req
291. I don't think I like the sound of this.
Copy !req
292. Chloe...
Copy !req
293. A dying man has little to lose.
Copy !req
294. My father used a bizarre blood platelet
cocktail to raise the dead...
Copy !req
295. then pinned the murders
of the research team on his son.
Copy !req
296. Who knows what tactics he'll use
to avoid going to prison.
Copy !req
297. Yeah, but the FBI guaranteed our safety.
Copy !req
298. They're putting me and my father in
protective custody until after the trial.
Copy !req
299. Then what?
Copy !req
300. - Lex, are you trying to scare me?
- I'm worried about you, Chloe.
Copy !req
301. I want you to have all the facts before
you walk into that courtroom.
Copy !req
302. Your father's intimidated me long enough.
Copy !req
303. I'm not backing down.
Copy !req
304. What is this?
Copy !req
305. A key.
Copy !req
306. Unfortunately not the one
we're both looking for.
Copy !req
307. If you wanna play games, I'll leave.
Copy !req
308. Clark...
Copy !req
309. My lawyers told me that your name has
appeared on the prosecution's witness list.
Copy !req
310. I can only assume
that Lex has you buying...
Copy !req
311. into his version of our Oedipal struggle.
Copy !req
312. I am a poor misguided...
Et cetera, et cetera.
Copy !req
313. Buy into this: You're a murderer.
Copy !req
314. I didn't kill my parents, Clark.
Copy !req
315. I certainly didn't shed any tears
at their funeral.
Copy !req
316. You have no idea what it's like
to grow up under...
Copy !req
317. the thumb of an abusive father...
Copy !req
318. someone who'd stop at nothing
to establish absolute control over you.
Copy !req
319. Your son does.
Copy !req
320. Lex is an expert by now.
Copy !req
321. An expert at lies and subterfuge.
Copy !req
322. That key you're holding...
Copy !req
323. It opens a door.
Copy !req
324. Third floor, east wing, Luthor mansion.
Copy !req
325. You'll be fascinated by what you find.
Copy !req
326. I'm not walking into some kind of trap.
Copy !req
327. Last time I listened to you,
I became a lab rat at Summerholt.
Copy !req
328. Clark...
Copy !req
329. I don't wanna harm you.
Copy !req
330. I want to enlighten you.
Copy !req
331. You want answers?
You're gonna find them.
Copy !req
332. Answers you won't believe.
Copy !req
333. - Before you jump to conclusions...
- You said you stopped investigating me.
Copy !req
334. - I did.
- You did? Then what is this?
Copy !req
335. I understand how you could think
all this is about you...
Copy !req
336. but in fact it's about me.
Copy !req
337. More lies.
Copy !req
338. So much of my own life I can't explain.
Copy !req
339. I survived countless brushes with death,
and it all started with this car crash.
Copy !req
340. If I'm guilty of anything, it's that I inherited
my father's curiosity for the unexplained.
Copy !req
341. You've inherited his dishonesty.
Copy !req
342. Clark, look me in the eye and tell me
you don't have any hidden places...
Copy !req
343. where you keep deep, dark secrets.
Copy !req
344. Ever since I met you,
I've been defending you.
Copy !req
345. Making excuses for you
to people like Pete, like my parents...
Copy !req
346. telling them, "You can trust Lex Luthor,
he's a good guy.
Copy !req
347. He's nothing like his father."
Copy !req
348. I was wrong.
Copy !req
349. Clark...
Copy !req
350. I can't believe he pretended to be my friend
for three years just to investigate me.
Copy !req
351. I'm so sorry. I know how hard
this must be for you.
Copy !req
352. Maybe Kara's right.
Copy !req
353. She warned me that all my friends
would betray me.
Copy !req
354. Maybe I don't belong here.
Copy !req
355. - Maybe there's a better place for me.
- No. No.
Copy !req
356. I've done everything in my power
to defy Jor-El.
Copy !req
357. Mom, it's only made things worse.
Copy !req
358. - Clark...
- Maybe I should go.
Copy !req
359. Oh, sweetheart.
Copy !req
360. You don't have to decide anything
right this minute.
Copy !req
361. You know? It's been an incredibly
difficult time for you.
Copy !req
362. With Pete gone, and Lana leaving...
Copy !req
363. Lana...
Copy !req
364. Lex.
Copy !req
365. I just wanted to say bon voyage.
Copy !req
366. Shouldn't you be at the courthouse?
Copy !req
367. My father can wait.
Copy !req
368. I couldn't let the last person
you saw from Smallville...
Copy !req
369. be the shuttle driver looking for his tip.
Copy !req
370. Lex, I can't thank you enough
for everything that you've done for me.
Copy !req
371. It's pretty clear your destiny lies far
beyond the Smallville city limits.
Copy !req
372. I'm just trying to help you get there.
Copy !req
373. I don't know what I did to deserve
such a great friend...
Copy !req
374. but I'm glad
that you came into my life.
Copy !req
375. Maybe I'll bump into you
on the Champs Elysees.
Copy !req
376. Are you gonna be in Paris?
Copy !req
377. I haven't been in a couple years,
but now I have reason to go.
Copy !req
378. Lex...
Copy !req
379. Clark isn't here. The judge says if he's not
here in five minutes, he's setting bail.
Copy !req
380. - Did you try calling?
- At home and on his cell phone. No answer.
Copy !req
381. Something big must've happened
because he flaked on Lana too.
Copy !req
382. - Lex, what's going on?
- Nothing.
Copy !req
383. I'm just hoping Clark
didn't change his mind.
Copy !req
384. You're his best friend.
Why would he do that?
Copy !req
385. There he is, just in time to save the day.
Copy !req
386. Clark, hey...
Copy !req
387. How do you feel about prison
now that you've been denied bail?
Copy !req
388. You know, it's nothing new to be in prison
and to be an innocent man.
Copy !req
389. In the end, I have no doubt
that justice will prevail.
Copy !req
390. Are you planning an appeal, sir?
Copy !req
391. Clark...
Copy !req
392. - Thanks for showing up. It means a lot to me.
- I didn't come here for you, Lex.
Copy !req
393. I came because it's the right thing to do.
Copy !req
394. This friendship's over.
Copy !req
395. Everything you said has come true.
Copy !req
396. I take no pleasure in your anguish, Kal-El.
Copy !req
397. I know that you have great feelings
for these people...
Copy !req
398. and they will miss you when
you're gone.
Copy !req
399. Ever since the meteor shower
I've brought them nothing but pain.
Copy !req
400. Come with me, Kal-El...
Copy !req
401. and she will ease your suffering.
Copy !req
402. She?
Copy !req
403. Your birth mother.
Copy !req
404. Lara?
Copy !req
405. She's missed you so much.
Copy !req
406. How could she?
Copy !req
407. She died.
Copy !req
408. Her love lives on...
Copy !req
409. and will embrace you
all the days of your life.
Copy !req
410. I'm ready.
Copy !req
411. - How long has Clark been gone?
- Since 3.
Copy !req
412. - Jonathan, the way he was talking...
- Call the Talon. I'm gonna check the caves.
Copy !req
413. Mr. Kent, I found a match
for your phantom fingerprints.
Copy !req
414. And even for me,
the keeper of the Wall of Weird...
Copy !req
415. it's extremely weird.
Copy !req
416. Clark! Wait!
Copy !req
417. Her name is not Kara. Her name is
Lindsay. And she's not from Krypton.
Copy !req
418. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
419. - Ignore him, Kal-El.
- Chloe matched her fingerprints...
Copy !req
420. to a young girl...
Copy !req
421. who was arrested
for shoplifting 16 years ago.
Copy !req
422. Your name is Lindsay Harrison.
Copy !req
423. - My name is Kara.
- You were driving with your mother...
Copy !req
424. on the day of the meteor shower.
Copy !req
425. Your car got a direct hit on Route 8.
Copy !req
426. That's right here near the caves.
Copy !req
427. Clark, Lindsay's body was never found.
Copy !req
428. - You haven't aged a day.
- Because I've been waiting for you...
Copy !req
429. in there.
Copy !req
430. No, Lindsay.
Copy !req
431. Jor-El used you.
Copy !req
432. He stole away your life.
He stripped you of your humanity...
Copy !req
433. all so he could lure Clark to him.
Copy !req
434. You two have to come with me right now.
Copy !req
435. Go with Kara, Kal-El.
Copy !req
436. I'm not going anywhere!
Copy !req
437. I'll never be who you want me to be!
Copy !req
438. - What did you do to her?
- She served her purpose...
Copy !req
439. as has Jonathan Kent.
Copy !req
440. Dad!
Copy !req
441. - Leave my father alone!
- Come forward...
Copy !req
442. or he will die.
Copy !req
443. Come to me, Kal-El.
Copy !req
444. Clark!
Copy !req
445. I've lived a full life, son.
Copy !req
446. Jor-El can do whatever he wants
to do to me as long as you're free.
Copy !req
447. I'll never be free.
Copy !req
448. Clark! No!
Copy !req
449. Do it.
Copy !req
450. Thank you.
Copy !req
451. Kal-El, my son.
Copy !req
452. Now you shall be reborn.
