1. Plan on coming up for air?
Copy !req
2. I'm thirsty. Is that a crime?
Copy !req
3. - Come on, I'll give you a ride.
- I'm waiting for someone.
Copy !req
4. Lana Lang.
Copy !req
5. - Very original.
- I hear she's single again.
Copy !req
6. They post that on her official
stalker website?
Copy !req
7. I'm not stalking her.
Copy !req
8. No, you just have her entire schedule
memorized for fun.
Copy !req
9. That girl's got so many guys tailing her...
Copy !req
10. she should qualify
for Secret Service protection.
Copy !req
11. Hi.
Copy !req
12. Hi.
Copy !req
13. Very smooth.
Copy !req
14. Maybe in about 10 years you'll actually
be able to get a complete sentence out.
Copy !req
15. I'll catch you later.
Copy !req
16. Hello?
Copy !req
17. Help! Help!
Copy !req
18. Looks like you got yourself
a pinch hitter in the hero arena.
Copy !req
19. I don't know if I'd call him a hero, Pete.
Copy !req
20. I'm just glad Lana's okay.
Copy !req
21. Yeah, I know. Have you seen her?
Copy !req
22. I'm not exactly the person
Lana wants to be around right now.
Copy !req
23. Keep it moving.
Copy !req
24. I still can't believe
Jake turned Swimfan on Lana.
Copy !req
25. Yeah, I didn't peg him as
a poolside-slasher type either.
Copy !req
26. But I don't think Jake Pollen was exactly
like your average teenager.
Copy !req
27. Why would you say that?
Copy !req
28. Other than the meteor rock labeled "freak"
laid next to his body?
Copy !req
29. You remember that field trip
we took down to Crater Lake...
Copy !req
30. the one where I dropped my keys
off of the pier?
Copy !req
31. I thought you were gonna
call the Navy SEALs.
Copy !req
32. - Jake fished them out.
- Right. He was underwater for six minutes.
Copy !req
33. Unless you're David Blaine or a Himalayan
yoga master, that's impossible.
Copy !req
34. - Hey, what's with the list?
- It's just my hunches, you know...
Copy !req
35. Sort of anything that's off the charts.
Copy !req
36. It's a purgatory before you get
to the Wall of Weird.
Copy !req
37. You have a full file of Jake?
Copy !req
38. I started suspecting a while ago
that he had amphibious abilities...
Copy !req
39. due to the meteor-rock exposure
for a while.
Copy !req
40. You don't think you're stretching
with this one, Chloe?
Copy !req
41. I don't think Jake is the mysterious one.
I mean, don't you think it's a little strange?
Copy !req
42. Rifle-wielding commando shows up
right when Lana's getting attacked?
Copy !req
43. If you wanna help track down
the enigmatic vigilante...
Copy !req
44. I would be willing to explore
the Jake angle.
Copy !req
45. That would be assuming
I actually had a job here.
Copy !req
46. Yeah— It was never clear about
whose choice it was for you to quit.
Copy !req
47. Look, Clark, I could say that I'm swamped
with the Daily Planet column...
Copy !req
48. but the truth is, it would just be
really nice to have you back.
Copy !req
49. All right, doctor, I'll have Lex
stop by for an examination...
Copy !req
50. by the end of the week.
Copy !req
51. All right. And Bob, thanks.
Copy !req
52. Lex.
Copy !req
53. Welcome back to LuthorCorp, son.
Copy !req
54. Feels like I never left.
Copy !req
55. You'll have the office next to mine.
You've got the river view.
Copy !req
56. I appreciate the gesture,
but I'm not here to enjoy the scenery.
Copy !req
57. - I'm here to generate profits.
- Lex, you already have the job.
Copy !req
58. And now you've entered
the executive ranks...
Copy !req
59. you need to fill out
some paperwork. Coffee?
Copy !req
60. I'm good.
Copy !req
61. - Corporate life insurance?
- Standard for all upper-level employees.
Copy !req
62. Is $50 million standard?
Copy !req
63. Don't underestimate
your own value, my son.
Copy !req
64. You seem reluctant, Lex.
I don't understand.
Copy !req
65. It's hard not to consider
the implications...
Copy !req
66. when your mortality has a dollar sign
attached to it.
Copy !req
67. Lex, I'd hoped we'd moved
beyond this distrust reflex of yours.
Copy !req
68. - It's called common sense.
- No, you're a corporate asset, Lex.
Copy !req
69. If something should happen to you...
Copy !req
70. the company needs to be
compensated for its loss.
Copy !req
71. All right. That's unacceptable to you.
I understand.
Copy !req
72. You can give your security card
to Nelson on your way out.
Copy !req
73. Hey, Lana. How you doing?
Copy !req
74. Hi. I haven't seen you in a while.
Copy !req
75. I thought it might be easier that way.
Copy !req
76. Easier on whom?
Copy !req
77. I didn't come here to upset you.
I'm doing a story on Jake for the Torch.
Copy !req
78. That's great, Clark.
What do you want to know?
Copy !req
79. You told the police he had
a friend with him...
Copy !req
80. and I was wondering
if you could point him out.
Copy !req
81. - I think that's him.
- Van McNulty. Thanks.
Copy !req
82. Glad I could be of help.
Copy !req
83. Lana.
Copy !req
84. Is this on or off the record?
Copy !req
85. I'm sorry I haven't stopped by.
Copy !req
86. Clark, I know we're not
together anymore...
Copy !req
87. but you don't need an excuse
to come see me.
Copy !req
88. Hey. So we can rule out
the Himalayan yoga masters.
Copy !req
89. Check out what my connection
at the coroner's office gave me.
Copy !req
90. You're not gonna see any of this
in Jake's official autopsy report.
Copy !req
91. - Believe it or not, they're gills.
- That's disgusting.
Copy !req
92. Personally, I find the gaping
bullet wound more disturbing.
Copy !req
93. Okay, if that shooter hadn't shown up
when he did, I'd be dead.
Copy !req
94. So forgive me if I don't have
more sympathy...
Copy !req
95. for the gill-boy
who tried to drown me.
Copy !req
96. Jake was exposed to the meteor rocks.
He didn't ask for them.
Copy !req
97. No, just like Greg Arkin didn't ask
to become a bug-boy...
Copy !req
98. and Tina Greer didn't ask
to become a bone-morpher.
Copy !req
99. The fact is, when they got their powers,
they went psycho and tried to kill me.
Copy !req
100. Tina even came back for seconds.
Copy !req
101. Chloe's been attacked by more
of them than me.
Copy !req
102. You remember Justin Gaines
and Sean Kelvin.
Copy !req
103. Yeah. One tried to psychically impale me
with farm implements...
Copy !req
104. and the other just wanted my body heat.
Thanks for the memories.
Copy !req
105. I'm just saying a shot in the head
is more extreme.
Copy !req
106. What about the times that you
saved us from these people?
Copy !req
107. What makes you so different
from the shooter?
Copy !req
108. I've never killed anyone.
Copy !req
109. Then how do you explain Tina Greer?
They found her body impaled in the alley.
Copy !req
110. What happened to her, she did to herself.
Copy !req
111. I was protecting you.
Copy !req
112. Spoken like a true vigilante.
Copy !req
113. Miss Sullivan. What a nice surprise.
Copy !req
114. Have you brought me an addendum
to your report on Clark Kent?
Copy !req
115. It's my final article for the Daily Planet.
Copy !req
116. I'm turning in my resignation today.
Copy !req
117. Our agreement is terminated.
Copy !req
118. I'm sorry. Clark's friendship
just means too much to me.
Copy !req
119. I can't say it's unexpected,
but it will be disappointing.
Copy !req
120. I'm sorry. I guess some people are just
better at leading double lives than others.
Copy !req
121. You misunderstand me, Miss Sullivan.
Copy !req
122. I'm not the one who's
going to be disappointed.
Copy !req
123. That'll be your father.
Copy !req
124. What does he have to do with any of this?
Copy !req
125. I guess he wanted to surprise you.
Copy !req
126. But your father just made
a sizable down payment...
Copy !req
127. on a new house
overlooking the golf course.
Copy !req
128. My dad still hasn't paid off
the new water heater.
Copy !req
129. I seriously doubt he's moving us
to "brat flats."
Copy !req
130. Well, it must be his way of celebrating
his new promotion.
Copy !req
131. When I rewarded him for his hard work
and his dedication to LuthorCorp...
Copy !req
132. he was just brimming with pride.
Copy !req
133. He'd be devastated if he suddenly
found himself unemployed.
Copy !req
134. - You can't do this to him.
- Yes, I can.
Copy !req
135. But I won't, which is why
I think we are going to enjoy...
Copy !req
136. a long and fruitful partnership,
Miss Sullivan.
Copy !req
137. Van McNulty?
Copy !req
138. - Hey.
- Clark Kent.
Copy !req
139. I'm sorry to hear about your friend Jake.
Copy !req
140. Thanks.
Copy !req
141. He was always chasing girls, but I still
can't believe he attacked anybody.
Copy !req
142. Police scanner. I just want to hear
when they catch Jake's killer.
Copy !req
143. I'm doing a story for the Torch.
Copy !req
144. I was wondering if you could give me
some background on Jake.
Copy !req
145. Everything I know is in the police report.
Copy !req
146. Never seen so many medals before.
Is that your dad?
Copy !req
147. Must be a real hero.
Copy !req
148. He was.
Copy !req
149. And he was a great father.
Copy !req
150. We used to do everything together.
Copy !req
151. I'm gonna be late for class.
Copy !req
152. Hey. Remember the rock that was tossed
next to Jake's body...
Copy !req
153. with the word "freak" written on it?
It wasn't the first the police found.
Copy !req
154. Meet Leonard Wallace, local mechanic
gunned down two weeks ago.
Copy !req
155. Someone put a similar rock
next to his body.
Copy !req
156. Why do you think he was killed?
Copy !req
157. I can't be sure, but last month,
when my VW Bug was in the shop...
Copy !req
158. I swear I saw his arm reach
for a wrench three feet under my car.
Copy !req
159. I started a file on him just in case he had
some sort of stretching abilities.
Copy !req
160. But unlike Jake,
Wallace never went psycho.
Copy !req
161. So Lana's mystery hero isn't
out to save anyone.
Copy !req
162. He's hunting them.
Copy !req
163. Smallville's own version of a hate crime.
Copy !req
164. But why?
Copy !req
165. Revenge.
Copy !req
166. Van McNulty's father was a Marine recruiter
who was killed by Tina Greer.
Copy !req
167. Tina's dead, so he decides
to go Terminator on the rest.
Copy !req
168. Van's fighting his own personal war.
Copy !req
169. Clark, my definition of "hike"
stopped two miles ago.
Copy !req
170. We have to get evidence for the police.
Copy !req
171. He came here with his dad.
It'll just take a minute.
Copy !req
172. Yeah, that's what you said
when we broke into his locker...
Copy !req
173. and his car and his house.
Copy !req
174. Jake was killed by a hunting rifle.
Copy !req
175. Like you can't find one of those
in the back window of every truck in town.
Copy !req
176. Now, this place needs some
serious Lemon Pledge.
Copy !req
177. All right, Clark, that's enough.
Let's go. There's nothing here.
Copy !req
178. He's pretty tight with his dad.
Copy !req
179. Clark, the last time I checked, there's
no offense in father and son bonding.
Copy !req
180. Pete, there's a serious arsenal in here.
Copy !req
181. Clark, it's a hunting cabin.
What do you expect?
Copy !req
182. What's Lex Luthor's picture doing there?
Copy !req
183. Pete, call the sheriff.
Copy !req
184. Lex, get down!
Copy !req
185. Someone's trying to kill him!
Get him inside!
Copy !req
186. - Get on the perimeter.
- Go!
Copy !req
187. Move it!
Copy !req
188. Let's go!
Copy !req
189. You're one of them.
I saw you catch that slug.
Copy !req
190. It was in your hand.
Copy !req
191. What are you,
some kind of bulletproof freak?
Copy !req
192. What's wrong?
Copy !req
193. Does this stuff make you sick
or something?
Copy !req
194. Look at you. How about a nice big bite
of meteor rock?
Copy !req
195. How's that feel?
Copy !req
196. Lex.
Copy !req
197. It's all right.
Copy !req
198. Clark.
Copy !req
199. How'd you know someone
was gonna try to kill me?
Copy !req
200. It's the same person
who shot Lana's attacker.
Copy !req
201. What would he want with me?
Copy !req
202. Look, I know this is gonna sound bizarre,
but this kid Van...
Copy !req
203. he's convinced that the meteor rocks
in Smallville have altered certain people.
Copy !req
204. What do you mean by "altered"?
Copy !req
205. He thinks they've developed different
abilities than us, and he's hunting them.
Copy !req
206. Lex, he had a hit list.
Copy !req
207. They found it in his cabin,
and you're on it.
Copy !req
208. My only abilities are playing the market
and falling for the wrong women.
Copy !req
209. He's obviously crazy.
Copy !req
210. There must be some reason he picked me.
Copy !req
211. Think about it, Clark.
Lex survived the meteor shower...
Copy !req
212. a near-fatal car accident
and a plane crash.
Copy !req
213. Even he doesn't have enough money
for a guardian angel like that.
Copy !req
214. Check this out.
Copy !req
215. His medical records show he has a
white-blood-cell count that is off the charts.
Copy !req
216. - It's more than enough to raise an eyebrow.
- You've been keeping a file on Lex too.
Copy !req
217. Didn't you learn your lesson
about keeping secret files?
Copy !req
218. They're my own private notes.
Since when is curiosity a crime?
Copy !req
219. Since someone took your database
and turned it into a personal hit list.
Copy !req
220. Van had a printout of the same file
on his bulletin board.
Copy !req
221. Van helped network half these computers.
Copy !req
222. He must have cracked my password.
Copy !req
223. Oh, God, Clark.
Copy !req
224. This is all my fault.
Copy !req
225. Chloe, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to blame you.
Copy !req
226. - It's not like you pulled the trigger.
- No.
Copy !req
227. I just loaded the gun and pointed it
in the right direction.
Copy !req
228. Where is he?
Copy !req
229. Lex. Thank God you're all right.
Copy !req
230. You're now covered
by my personal security.
Copy !req
231. I appreciate the gesture...
Copy !req
232. but I'm not gonna let some
adolescent assassin disrupt my life.
Copy !req
233. Don't take that cavalier attitude, Lex.
Copy !req
234. I wouldn't worry about it, Dad.
I'm insured now.
Copy !req
235. Not yet. There's some difficulty getting
you underwritten by Lloyd's of London.
Copy !req
236. On what grounds?
Copy !req
237. Your tendency to attract
near-death experiences...
Copy !req
238. has made you too great a liability.
Copy !req
239. I would think surviving would
count for something.
Copy !req
240. You're right. I'll get it straightened out.
Don't worry.
Copy !req
241. Dad.
Copy !req
242. Before the meteor shower...
Copy !req
243. was I ever sick?
Copy !req
244. When you were a child, you had asthma.
But other than that, no.
Copy !req
245. Nothing serious.
Copy !req
246. Don't you find it a little strange...
Copy !req
247. that I've never been sick
a day in my life since?
Copy !req
248. What's all this about, Lex?
Copy !req
249. Nothing.
Copy !req
250. I obviously inherited strong genes.
Copy !req
251. Sheriff Adams, have you found Van yet?
Copy !req
252. We're looking, but there's no reason
to think he's come back here.
Copy !req
253. I think there is. Take a look at this.
Copy !req
254. One of these people
will be Van's next target.
Copy !req
255. Are we in the psychic business now?
Copy !req
256. Just look at the first three names.
Copy !req
257. Where'd you get this?
Copy !req
258. A friend who believes these people...
Copy !req
259. are linked to a certain
phenomena in Smallville.
Copy !req
260. A phenomena, huh?
Copy !req
261. - It's a little out of my jurisdiction.
- Well, you don't have to believe it's true.
Copy !req
262. Van McNulty does, and these people are
in a lot of danger.
Copy !req
263. Can't hurt to be cautious.
Copy !req
264. How's Lex doing?
Copy !req
265. Okay. I guess.
Copy !req
266. It's not the first time
he's been in the cross hairs.
Copy !req
267. - Are they sure Van was the shooter?
- I am.
Copy !req
268. Lana, I know he saved your life,
but I don't think that was his intention.
Copy !req
269. No, it was just a happy accident.
Copy !req
270. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that.
Copy !req
271. Clark, I really thought I was going to die.
Copy !req
272. You've been through worse.
Copy !req
273. Because you've been there to protect me.
But I knew you weren't coming this time...
Copy !req
274. so when Van showed up, I was relieved
that there were others like you out there.
Copy !req
275. He's not like me.
Copy !req
276. You have to see him for what he is.
He's a killer.
Copy !req
277. Lana, it's okay to be mad at people
who tried to hurt you.
Copy !req
278. But it's not fair to take it out on everyone
affected by the meteors.
Copy !req
279. It's not their fault.
No one asked to be different.
Copy !req
280. Life would just be so much better
for everybody...
Copy !req
281. if the meteor shower never happened.
Copy !req
282. 1 97, 1 98, 1 99.
Copy !req
283. I've searched everywhere
from here to Metropolis.
Copy !req
284. It's like Van disappeared.
Copy !req
285. Clark, he can't hide forever.
Copy !req
286. Every police officer in the state's
looking for him. They'll find him.
Copy !req
287. I just hope he doesn't find
his next target first.
Copy !req
288. Dad, do you think I'm like Van?
Copy !req
289. Well, I think you know my answer
to that question, son.
Copy !req
290. The real question is,
do you think you're like Van?
Copy !req
291. It's just, I've come into contact with
a lot of kryptonite-infected people...
Copy !req
292. and it never ends with us
being friends or shaking hands.
Copy !req
293. I gave Lana this whole tolerance speech.
Copy !req
294. I always assume the worst
about them too.
Copy !req
295. There could be lots of people out there
who've been infected...
Copy !req
296. who lead perfectly normal lives.
Copy !req
297. They're forced to live with their secret.
Copy !req
298. And they could be using
their abilities for good too.
Copy !req
299. I'm gonna get cleaned up.
Copy !req
300. Clark?
Copy !req
301. Clark!
Copy !req
302. - Dad.
- Clark.
Copy !req
303. I got you.
Copy !req
304. Help!
Copy !req
305. - How's that coming, sweetheart?
- I got it.
Copy !req
306. It's okay.
Copy !req
307. It's all right. Hang in there.
Copy !req
308. It's okay. It's all right.
Copy !req
309. He's dying. The poison is
spreading so fast.
Copy !req
310. Okay, Clark, I'm gonna...
I'm gonna get it out.
Copy !req
311. Clark, you gotta stay still, son.
Copy !req
312. Hold on, baby. Hold on.
Dad's gonna get it.
Copy !req
313. My God. He's not breathing.
Copy !req
314. All right, hand me those.
Copy !req
315. Don't you give up on us now, son.
Copy !req
316. Do you have it?
Copy !req
317. Martha, it's in there so far.
Copy !req
318. Wait a second. I think I got it.
Copy !req
319. - Okay.
- Hold on, baby. He's got it.
Copy !req
320. Get that thing out of here.
Copy !req
321. Clark. Come on, son.
Copy !req
322. Come on, Clark.
Copy !req
323. Lana.
Copy !req
324. It's me. Van.
Copy !req
325. - I'm the one who saved you.
- Yeah, I know who you are.
Copy !req
326. They've got the roads blocked off,
and they're casing my house and my cabin.
Copy !req
327. I need you to help me get out of here.
Copy !req
328. - Van, I think you should turn yourself in.
- To the police?
Copy !req
329. They're useless. I'm mean,
they should be protecting us.
Copy !req
330. I thought you'd understand.
Copy !req
331. You owe me, Lana. I saved your life.
Copy !req
332. I know.
Copy !req
333. But Lex didn't do anything to you.
Copy !req
334. I'm sorry about what happened
to your father.
Copy !req
335. But going after innocent people
won't bring him back.
Copy !req
336. These freaks aren't people, Lana.
Copy !req
337. No matter how much they seem like it.
Look at Jake.
Copy !req
338. All right, he was best friend for three years,
and I had no idea.
Copy !req
339. - And you're being fooled just like I was.
- What do you mean?
Copy !req
340. Clark Kent is one of them.
Copy !req
341. - Why would you say that?
- I know he seemed perfectly normal...
Copy !req
342. but I saw him catch a bullet, Lana.
In his bare hands.
Copy !req
343. He was a freak just like the rest of them.
Copy !req
344. What do you mean, "was"?
Copy !req
345. Well, let's just say Clark Kent
won't be able to hurt anyone now.
Copy !req
346. - What did you do?
- I found his weakness.
Copy !req
347. I made special bullets.
Copy !req
348. No.
Copy !req
349. That freak got exactly what he deserved.
Copy !req
350. Clark is more human
than you will ever be.
Copy !req
351. Get someone to the Kent farm, quick.
Clark Kent's been murdered.
Copy !req
352. You were in love with that
disgusting mutant, weren't you?
Copy !req
353. You know, there's only one thing
I hate worse than a freak...
Copy !req
354. and that's a freak-lover.
Copy !req
355. He's coming to.
Copy !req
356. Clark, how you feeling, son?
Copy !req
357. - A little woozy.
- Well, you need to lie down.
Copy !req
358. - Take it slowly.
- No, I need to find Van.
Copy !req
359. Your wound may be healed,
but you still need to rest.
Copy !req
360. How can I rest knowing that Van's
out there with a hit list in his hand?
Copy !req
361. Clark, this boy is not like the others.
He has kryptonite bullets.
Copy !req
362. He already tried to kill you once, son.
Copy !req
363. - I'll not let you give him a second chance.
- I know what I'm up against now.
Copy !req
364. Mrs. Kent, is Clark all right?
Copy !req
365. Yeah, Clark's fine. Why, sheriff?
Copy !req
366. Well, rumors of your death have
been greatly exaggerated, Mr. Kent.
Copy !req
367. Are you sure everything's all right?
Copy !req
368. Oh, yeah. It was a barbed-wire accident.
Copy !req
369. - What do you mean, rumors of my death?
- Dispatch got a call you'd been murdered.
Copy !req
370. - Who'd make a call like that?
- Beats heck out of me.
Copy !req
371. I don't appreciate crank calls,
especially in the middle of a manhunt.
Copy !req
372. - All clear at the Kent farm.
- Roger.
Copy !req
373. Over.
Copy !req
374. Where's your son?
Copy !req
375. Van, I know you're listening.
You didn't get me.
Copy !req
376. If you want to finish this, meet me
where I saw your dad's picture.
Copy !req
377. I'm on my way
Copy !req
378. I don't know how he survived
my first shot...
Copy !req
379. but we're gonna see
how he handles a whole clip.
Copy !req
380. You may have survived one bullet,
but I'm not gonna make that mistake again.
Copy !req
381. Lana. Let her go!
Copy !req
382. Not until she sees once and for all
that her lover-boy is a freak show.
Copy !req
383. Clark!
Copy !req
384. I told you he was a freak.
Copy !req
385. You're the freak.
Copy !req
386. Clark, how did you...?
Copy !req
387. It's all about dressing for the occasion.
Copy !req
388. What is that? Lead?
Copy !req
389. You can rest a bit easier.
Copy !req
390. Van McNulty's been taken into custody.
Copy !req
391. He's in the psychiatric ward.
Copy !req
392. I knew Van was misguided,
but I'm not so sure he's insane.
Copy !req
393. What makes you say that?
Copy !req
394. Churchill once said¡G
Copy !req
395. "Out of intense complexities,
intense simplicities emerge."
Copy !req
396. Maybe that kid was right about me.
Copy !req
397. - Lex, he's a fanatic.
- Oh, but Chloe Sullivan's not?
Copy !req
398. How many times have I come
face to face with death...
Copy !req
399. and walked away without a scratch?
I've practically lost count.
Copy !req
400. Weirder things have happened.
Copy !req
401. I thought the reason I survived
that Porsche accident...
Copy !req
402. was because of you, Clark.
Copy !req
403. Now I'm not so sure.
Copy !req
404. See, I've always tried to explain everything
by looking outside myself.
Copy !req
405. But maybe the truth lies
inside my own physiology.
Copy !req
406. Maybe I am a freak.
Copy !req
407. Hey, Lana, is everything okay?
Copy !req
408. I thought we established that
we didn't need a reason...
Copy !req
409. to come and see each other.
Copy !req
410. I didn't get a chance to tell you,
but you really kicked ass yesterday.
Copy !req
411. Yeah, well, some hero I turned out to be.
Copy !req
412. You still got shot.
Copy !req
413. You must be pretty sore.
Copy !req
414. It still stings a little.
Copy !req
415. You know...
Copy !req
416. I believed Van for a minute
when he told me you were bulletproof.
Copy !req
417. Is that what he told you?
Copy !req
418. It was really comforting to hear.
Copy !req
419. Suddenly, everything made sense.
Copy !req
420. The tornado.
Copy !req
421. All the times that you've been there.
Copy !req
422. Everything I can't explain.
Copy !req
423. I wish the answer was that easy.
Copy !req
424. But I wasn't infected by the meteor rocks.
Copy !req
425. If you were...
Copy !req
426. it would be okay.
Copy !req
427. I have to get back to work.
Copy !req
428. What I don't understand is
you're willing to walk into bullets for me...
Copy !req
429. but you won't share
what's going on inside.
Copy !req
430. Clark, if you don't open up to the people
that love you, you'll always be alone.
Copy !req
431. I can't believe you want
to spend your life like that.
Copy !req
432. I may not have a choice.
Copy !req
433. You always have a choice.
Copy !req
434. You hit a glitch, Miss Sullivan?
Copy !req
435. I know a very capable
computer technician...
Copy !req
436. who might have some familiarity
with your setup.
Copy !req
437. How could I be so idiotic?
Copy !req
438. You donate the computers and then
send your experts in to set them up.
Copy !req
439. Yeah, philanthropy.
I've always prided myself on that.
Copy !req
440. What about tampering with a high school
student's personal computer?
Copy !req
441. I think you'll find
your personal computer is on loan...
Copy !req
442. to the school as the property
of the LuthorCorp Foundation.
Copy !req
443. You are so low, you're subterranean.
Copy !req
444. Clark's files aren't on this hard drive.
Do you really think I'd be that stupid?
Copy !req
445. My interest doesn't end with Clark Kent.
Copy !req
446. I'm intrigued by your whole body of work.
Copy !req
447. I hate to see your valuable research
evaporate into the ether...
Copy !req
448. but I will not allow information that
concerns my son to be made available...
Copy !req
449. to anyone who can hack their way
into your personal files.
Copy !req
450. Mr. Luthor, I'm very sorry
about what happened to Lex.
Copy !req
451. These files were never meant to be
seen by anyone other than me.
Copy !req
452. I warn you...
Copy !req
453. if I ever catch you investigating
a member of my family again...
Copy !req
454. a computer glitch will be
the least of your problems.
Copy !req
455. Good night, Miss Sullivan.
Copy !req
