1. Clark...Copy !req
2. You shouldn't have.Copy !req
3. Uh, Clark's sorry
he couldn't make it.Copy !req
4. He and Bart are off —
yeah.Copy !req
5. Dealing with a crisis
in keystone.Copy !req
6. I know.Copy !req
7. Well, come on. Let's, uh —
let's see what you got.Copy !req
8. Wow.Copy !req
9. I haven't seen this
in ages.Copy !req
10. You okay?Copy !req
11. Yeah.Copy !req
12. Birthdays just make me
a little reflective.Copy !req
13. What do you say we get you
out of your headCopy !req
14. and into the party, huh?Copy !req
15. Come on.Copy !req
16. See? Case in point.Copy !req
17. That was supposed to
be my life.Copy !req
18. Ollie,
when did this happen?Copy !req
19. One day I'm on the fast track
for my dream careerCopy !req
20. as the intrepid reporter,
and then I blink.Copy !req
21. And all of a sudden,
I'm this underqualified shrinkCopy !req
22. for meteor-infected kidsCopy !req
23. who will probably wake up
to be psycho killers,Copy !req
24. while Lois and Clark
are walking the beachCopy !req
25. with matching press passes
together.Copy !req
26. Oh, and did I mention
that I was actually able toCopy !req
27. hold on to
"happily ever after"Copy !req
28. for about 2.3 seconds
before my marriage imploded?Copy !req
29. Is this the part where you
belt out the soprano's AriaCopy !req
30. and drive a dagger
into your corset?Copy !req
31. Right.
Sorry for the operetta.Copy !req
32. It's just, I would love to know
how she does it.Copy !req
33. You know, Chloe,
if I didn't know you any better,Copy !req
34. I'd say there was a hint
of jealousy in there.Copy !req
35. No.Copy !req
36. It's just...Copy !req
37. With all these Debbie ups
and downers lately,Copy !req
38. I guess it would be really nice
to leave it all behindCopy !req
39. and be back
in the bullpen.Copy !req
40. Hey!Copy !req
41. One year closer to
the sweet release of death.Copy !req
42. How wonderfully morbid.Copy !req
43. Chloe, I am so sorry.Copy !req
44. There's been a factory workers
revolt in Mexico city,Copy !req
45. and the planet is flying me down
El primero classo,Copy !req
46. wheels up in 30.Copy !req
47. Don't do anything
I wouldn't do.Copy !req
48. Love you.Copy !req
49. Oh, Chloe, I got to —Copy !req
50. duty calls.
It's fine.Copy !req
51. I'm — I'm sorry.Copy !req
52. Happy Birthday, Chloe.Copy !req
53. Now, there's a man who looks
like he needs a little magicCopy !req
54. in his button-up life.Copy !req
55. Uh, you know what?Copy !req
56. I wouldn't want to steal
the hocus-pocus awayCopy !req
57. from the birthday girl.Copy !req
58. How about
a little something specialCopy !req
59. for the someone
who truly deserves it?Copy !req
60. Okay?Copy !req
61. Rough birthday, huh?Copy !req
62. You ever seen the napalm scene
in "apocalypse now"?Copy !req
63. More fire, less cake.Copy !req
64. Let's make sure
tomorrow's a better day, hmm?Copy !req
65. Make a wish.Copy !req
66. Oh, my God. I'm Lois.Copy !req
67. So, everything's okay with you
in Mexico, Lois?Copy !req
68. Everything's great!Copy !req
69. Except for government oppression
and slave labor. Why?Copy !req
70. Uh... It's just...Copy !req
71. You're sure?
Nothing weird?Copy !req
72. No.Copy !req
73. Chlo, what is going on?
You don't sound like yourself.Copy !req
74. No, uh, me?Copy !req
75. Just got a frog
in my throat.Copy !req
76. Okay.
Well, you take care.Copy !req
77. You, too.Copy !req
78. Nice job on that
city-hall piece, Lane.Copy !req
79. Dry cleaning and
your morning coffee, miss Lane.Copy !req
80. Thanks. Um...Copy !req
81. Oh, don't worry,
miss Lane.Copy !req
82. You'll remember my name
one of these days.Copy !req
83. Right.Copy !req
84. Lois?Copy !req
85. Thank God. Clark.Copy !req
86. You couldn't have been deported
that quickly.Copy !req
87. Why aren't you in Mexico?Copy !req
88. Isn't there a limit
to how tight a shirt can beCopy !req
89. to meet dress code?Copy !req
90. Really? Even you?Copy !req
91. Well...Copy !req
92. Here's the thing.Copy !req
93. I never made it
to Mexico.Copy !req
94. Right, can this wait till
until after your post-lunch,Copy !req
95. predinner,
after-coffee snack break?Copy !req
96. I can't imagine you having any
more to say after last night.Copy !req
97. Last night?Copy !req
98. Yeah, you called me five times
from the airport,Copy !req
99. one from the airplane.Copy !req
100. You had time to answer
six phone calls,Copy !req
101. and you couldn't call Chloe
on her birthday?Copy !req
102. Chloe knows sometimes
I get hung up at the... Farm.Copy !req
103. And if this not-so-hidden
attitude is becauseCopy !req
104. you still think
that I'm taking Jimmy's sideCopy !req
105. on the whole
breakup thing,Copy !req
106. it's because I believe there
are two sides to every story.Copy !req
107. Really?
Exactly what two sides?Copy !req
108. Look, he may have
gone overboard on the whole...Copy !req
109. Davis bloome
serial-killer thing,Copy !req
110. but it's got to be toughCopy !req
111. when the person that you're
trying to build your life withCopy !req
112. doesn't believe in you.Copy !req
113. Lois, are you all right?Copy !req
114. No, I am definitely
not all right.Copy !req
115. Well, this should help —
police standoff, main and 5th.Copy !req
116. Grab your jacket.Copy !req
117. Isn't this the part
where you tell me to saddle up?Copy !req
118. Start your engines...
Smallville.Copy !req
119. Now,
why do I get the feelingCopy !req
120. you're not my 10:00
from the steel union?Copy !req
121. Zatanna.Copy !req
122. We weren't
properly introduced.Copy !req
123. "Zatanna."
Lose a bet with that name?Copy !req
124. It's a family thing.Copy !req
125. Okay.Copy !req
126. So, uh, zatanna...
Is it? Right.Copy !req
127. you mind telling me what
drives a lovely young womanCopy !req
128. such as yourself to track down
an unsuspecting c.E.O.Copy !req
129. At a nightclub
and then again at his office?Copy !req
130. I need your help.Copy !req
131. You don't scream
"charity case."Copy !req
132. My father left me an estate
in shadowcrest,Copy !req
133. so money isn't an object.Copy !req
134. Shadowcrest.Copy !req
135. John zatara,
the maestro of magic —Copy !req
136. he was your father?Copy !req
137. Well, I'm sorry.Copy !req
138. I know what it's like
to lose family.Copy !req
139. Yeah.Copy !req
140. I lost more than my father.Copy !req
141. I lost his entire legacy,
recorded in a bookCopy !req
142. that's been passed down
through generations.Copy !req
143. There's a Bible's worth
of my heritage in those pages.Copy !req
144. When my father died,Copy !req
145. Mr. Luthor acquired that book
at auction.Copy !req
146. Well, no offense,
zatanna,Copy !req
147. but, uh,
you're the daughterCopy !req
148. of the world's
greatest magician.Copy !req
149. Can't you just —
I don't know —Copy !req
150. wiggle your nose and pull it out
of a hat or something?Copy !req
151. You're cute. And, no.Copy !req
152. My father refused
to teach me muchCopy !req
153. beyond practical
parlor tricks.Copy !req
154. Oh, uh...Copy !req
155. Well, I'm sorry.
I really wish I could help.Copy !req
156. Queen industriesCopy !req
157. may have absorbed
all of Luthorcorp holdings,Copy !req
158. but I'm afraid
Lex's lawyersCopy !req
159. won't let me anywhere near
his private collection.Copy !req
160. I thought I was gonna have to
use a little incentive.Copy !req
161. See, I have the ability
to grant one wish.Copy !req
162. Big or small, whatever you wish
for in that moment,Copy !req
163. it can be yours.Copy !req
164. Well,
that's very tempting.Copy !req
165. But as you can see,Copy !req
166. I'm pretty comfortable
with my life the way it is.Copy !req
167. Well, there has to be
somebody you've lost,Copy !req
168. something
that you've doneCopy !req
169. that you wish
you could take back.Copy !req
170. Get me my book,
and I'll make it happen.Copy !req
171. Offer expires
at midnight.Copy !req
172. You haven't insulted me
once yet today.Copy !req
173. And you actually crossed
at the crosswalk.Copy !req
174. Did Jeff not bring you
your coffee today?Copy !req
175. Uh... Let's just say I rolled out
of bed on the right side.Copy !req
176. It's amazing how much more
you can see with fresh eyes.Copy !req
177. So, anything else
you want to tell me — oh, ooh.Copy !req
178. What's the look for?Copy !req
179. You just never looked at me
that way before.Copy !req
180. There's our story calling.Copy !req
181. Technically,
it still is a standoff.Copy !req
182. All right, Lane.Copy !req
183. This squares us up before
Friday night's poker game.Copy !req
184. And, by the way, I've been
working on my bluff, okay?Copy !req
185. Right. Keep up the good work,
there, tough guy.Copy !req
186. So, what's the dealCopy !req
187. with our sophoclean
town crier up there?Copy !req
188. Yeah, well,
here's the situation.Copy !req
189. Nutjob up there
on the fire escape —Copy !req
190. he owns Yuri's antiques
over on main street.Copy !req
191. He's been babbling in Latin
like this all day.Copy !req
192. I'll see you on Friday.Copy !req
193. "Woman... Magic cursed on.Copy !req
194. Book brings death."Copy !req
195. Since when did you
speak Latin?Copy !req
196. Zatanna! Zatanna!Copy !req
197. Zatanna.Copy !req
198. Clark!Copy !req
199. I bet it is that same
witchy woman who did this to me.Copy !req
200. Now, I know where
she's performing tonight.Copy !req
201. Maybe you can superspeed
over to this antique shopCopy !req
202. and dust off any leads.Copy !req
203. "Superspeed"?
We didn't even bring a car.Copy !req
204. What?Copy !req
205. It's okay.
I'm Chloe.Copy !req
206. "Stood her up at formal"
Chloe?Copy !req
207. "Planted one on youCopy !req
208. because Zod was ending
the world" Chloe?Copy !req
209. "Krypton, Jor-El, fortress,
brainiac" Chloe!Copy !req
210. Chloe.
Bingo.Copy !req
211. And just like that raving
wardrobe malfunction over there,Copy !req
212. some magician showed up
at my birthday partyCopy !req
213. in fishnets
and hexed me!Copy !req
214. But you'd know that
if you hadn't skipped itCopy !req
215. to answer voice mails
from Lois.Copy !req
216. Not that I'm dwelling.Copy !req
217. Not exactly hiding out,
is she?Copy !req
218. You just woke up
like this?Copy !req
219. How did I not pick up
on it sooner?Copy !req
220. Forget about it.Copy !req
221. This is my shakespearean
nightmare, not yours.Copy !req
222. Although it has been
awfully illuminating.Copy !req
223. Listen,
what I said about Jimmy...Copy !req
224. You're an
equal-opportunity good guy.Copy !req
225. I get it.Copy !req
226. I guess I'm just
not used to seeing youCopy !req
227. from this perspective.Copy !req
228. By the way, "tales of the weird
& unexplained"...Copy !req
229. Nice callback.Copy !req
230. I thought it might bring you
back to a timeCopy !req
231. when, you know,
things were...Copy !req
232. Weird and unexplained?Copy !req
233. You sound like
you miss it.Copy !req
234. Oh, I don't know.Copy !req
235. It's just there's a whole half
of my lifeCopy !req
236. where this happens
every day.Copy !req
237. Weird has become so normal,
it's not even weird anymore.Copy !req
238. Honestly, I like what I'm doing
at the planet now.Copy !req
239. But I would be lying if I said
that there weren't daysCopy !req
240. when I wish I could forget
about saving the worldCopy !req
241. and just be
a normal reporter.Copy !req
242. Well, for now, how about you
not stick to your day job?Copy !req
243. It won't be much longer,
father.Copy !req
244. Much longer for what?Copy !req
245. I'm sorry.
Have we met?Copy !req
246. Does an enchanted cupcake
ring any bells?Copy !req
247. You were
the birthday girl.Copy !req
248. You need to reverse the curse
that you put on Chloe.Copy !req
249. Curse?Copy !req
250. Is that what
you think happened?Copy !req
251. You kind of got things
backwards.Copy !req
252. I granted you a wish.Copy !req
253. And why on earth would
I wish myself into this?Copy !req
254. Beats me.Copy !req
255. I don't write the magics, honey.
I just use them.Copy !req
256. Now, I'm not saying this is
your heart's deepest desire.Copy !req
257. But in that moment...Copy !req
258. This is what you wanted.Copy !req
259. Okay,
just for a second,Copy !req
260. maybe I was a little jealous
of Lois living my dream lifeCopy !req
261. with Clark
at the planet.Copy !req
262. But I didn't literally
want her life.Copy !req
263. Not like this.Copy !req
264. Well, don't worry.Copy !req
265. It will wear off as soon
as you don't want it anymore.Copy !req
266. Fine.Copy !req
267. I don't want it.Copy !req
268. You keep telling
yourself that.Copy !req
269. Do you really think that man
from the antique shopCopy !req
270. wanted to end up rambling on
like a crazy person?Copy !req
271. Maybe he wanted
a better understandingCopy !req
272. of dead languages.Copy !req
273. I wanted an heirloom
of my father's.Copy !req
274. We helped each other out.
Fair trade.Copy !req
275. About that heirloom —Copy !req
276. what did Yuri mean
when he saidCopy !req
277. the book you were after
would bring death?Copy !req
278. Some people can be a —
a little superstitious.Copy !req
279. And that makes it okay
to use them.Copy !req
280. Use them?Copy !req
281. I give people
what they want.Copy !req
282. Look, everybody has something
they're hoping for...Copy !req
283. Something — something
they wish they could change.Copy !req
284. Even you.Copy !req
285. I wonder what
your little wish would be.Copy !req
286. Clark!Copy !req
287. Oh, no, Clark.Copy !req
288. Are you okay?Copy !req
289. Yeah, I'm fine.Copy !req
290. Really?Copy !req
291. Something
has to be different.Copy !req
292. I never should have
brought you along.Copy !req
293. I forgot that magic affects you
just like the rest of us.Copy !req
294. Are you sure
you're all right?Copy !req
295. Yes, Lois.
Stop asking me that.Copy !req
296. And what do you mean
by "the rest of us"?Copy !req
297. It's just that —Copy !req
298. wait.Copy !req
299. What did you just call me?Copy !req
300. Help!Copy !req
301. Aren't you gonna
do anything?Copy !req
302. You're absolutely right,
Lois.Copy !req
303. 911?Copy !req
304. How gullible
do you think I am, Lois?Copy !req
305. I'm Chloe.
Right.Copy !req
306. At first I had trouble
telling you two apart, as well.Copy !req
307. But Lois is the tall one.Copy !req
308. You just acknowledged
I was ChloeCopy !req
309. before our run-in
with zatanna.Copy !req
310. She bippity-boppity-booed
you, too!Copy !req
311. Lois, there's no
such thing as magic.Copy !req
312. It's all trapdoors
and wires.Copy !req
313. Okay, Clark,
think about it.Copy !req
314. Right before
we walked in there,Copy !req
315. you were just complaining
about how easy it would beCopy !req
316. if you could just
forget the wholeCopy !req
317. hero-alien-everything-weird
sideCopy !req
318. and were just a regular,
mundane reporterCopy !req
319. living a normal life.Copy !req
320. If something seems too weird
to be true, it usually is.Copy !req
321. That's rule number 4.Copy !req
322. What?Copy !req
323. "Lois Lane rules
of reporting."Copy !req
324. Come on.
Like you never let me forget.Copy !req
325. And you framed this?Copy !req
326. Look, you said you wanted
only one of your double lifes.Copy !req
327. And whether you meant it or not,
the spell thought you did.Copy !req
328. Exactly what other lifeCopy !req
329. is it I'm supposed to have,
Lois?Copy !req
330. Lois, what has gotten
into you?Copy !req
331. Now, wait a second.Copy !req
332. We're not allowed
to be up here, Lois.Copy !req
333. Clark...Copy !req
334. Snap out of it.Copy !req
335. You're a hero.Copy !req
336. I'm a regular green arrow.Copy !req
337. Lois, I don't make the news.
I just report it.Copy !req
338. You are the biggest news
there is.Copy !req
339. You're a superhuman being
from another planet.Copy !req
340. Okay. Just don't tell
human resources, all right?Copy !req
341. Now, I have a deadline
to meet.Copy !req
342. Did you just
lock us up here?Copy !req
343. Open the door, Clark.Copy !req
344. Lois, it's locked!
We need a key!Copy !req
345. Open the damn door,
Clark.Copy !req
346. Lois, if you don't —Copy !req
347. now do you believe me?Copy !req
348. What I believe is that this door
needs better maintenance.Copy !req
349. Look at the rust in here.Copy !req
350. No wonder it just pulled off
like that.Copy !req
351. Okay.
Now we're gonna be stuck
up here —Copy !req
352. how about this?Copy !req
353. Listen.
Really listen.Copy !req
354. What do you hear?Copy !req
355. That's amazing.Copy !req
356. The acoustics up here
are incredible.Copy !req
357. It's like there's some perfect
echo point right here.Copy !req
358. Lois!Copy !req
359. Have you completely
lost your mind?Copy !req
360. That could have
really hurt!Copy !req
361. No, it...Copy !req
362. No, it wouldn't, Clark.Copy !req
363. You've got superspeed
and superstrengthCopy !req
364. and superhearing
and X-ray vision!Copy !req
365. And I have a deadline,
Lois.Copy !req
366. Now, please,
if you would excuse me,Copy !req
367. I need to find a way
to get off this roof.Copy !req
368. Unless my superpowers
include an ability...Copy !req
369. To fly.Copy !req
370. I didn't think so.Copy !req
371. Now...Copy !req
372. Sorry, guys.Copy !req
373. I'll make sure you get
a nice Christmas bonus.Copy !req
374. Thanks, Lex.Copy !req
375. Bravo.Copy !req
376. You found my book
and pulled it off in style.Copy !req
377. I wish I could say
I've had the pleasure.Copy !req
378. Oh, please, Oliver.Copy !req
379. Ask a billionaire
for help,Copy !req
380. and then a vigilante
steals exactly what I ask for?Copy !req
381. You need to work
on your sleight of hand.Copy !req
382. Yeah.Copy !req
383. Now...Copy !req
384. Give me my book,
and I'll give you your wish.Copy !req
385. A deal's a deal.Copy !req
386. You know, this isn't just
a how-to guideCopy !req
387. on upping
your stage presence.Copy !req
388. There's some really dark stuff
in here, zatanna.Copy !req
389. You don't get it.Copy !req
390. The sick irony
of my abilityCopy !req
391. is that I can grant
so many wishes —Copy !req
392. everyone's but mine.Copy !req
393. No.Copy !req
394. Please? Don't.Copy !req
395. It's the only way
I can bring my father back.Copy !req
396. I'm sorry.Copy !req
397. Not good.Copy !req
398. You don't
want to do this.Copy !req
399. You can't just bring someone
back and change fate!Copy !req
400. I'm sorry.
I've waited too long for this.Copy !req
401. I'm coming, father.Copy !req
402. I'll handle this, Lois.Copy !req
403. Do you speak English?Copy !req
404. Yes.Copy !req
405. You mind telling me
who you are?Copy !req
406. Lois Lane,
daily planet.Copy !req
407. I'm sorry.Copy !req
408. We thought you were
under some kind of... Spell?Copy !req
409. Well, she did.Copy !req
410. You know.Copy !req
411. We know zatanna
gave you a wishCopy !req
412. in exchange for
some information on a book.Copy !req
413. I never should have told her
how to find that book.Copy !req
414. I'm afraid she's too blinded
by her griefCopy !req
415. to see the danger
that she's in.Copy !req
416. Say this woman
does know magic,Copy !req
417. what sort of danger
are you talking about?Copy !req
418. She must be stopped
from using that bookCopy !req
419. to resurrect her father.Copy !req
420. She isn't prepared
to make the sacrifice.Copy !req
421. What kind of sacrifice?Copy !req
422. From what I could decipher,Copy !req
423. the incantation
to bring a life backCopy !req
424. required the taking of a life
in return.Copy !req
425. So, in order to bring
her father back,Copy !req
426. someone else must die.Copy !req
427. A life for a life.Copy !req
428. A soul for a soul.Copy !req
429. As life is lived
from front to back,Copy !req
430. let death be turned
back to front.Copy !req
431. Grant me my wish.Copy !req
432. Resurrect John zatara.Copy !req
433. That guy really sounded
like he believedCopy !req
434. in what he was saying.Copy !req
435. That's because
it was true.Copy !req
436. Now we just need to
find zatannaCopy !req
437. before she tries to give
dear old dad one final encore.Copy !req
438. It looks like
we may be too late.Copy !req
439. Clark, you're the only person
who can get up thereCopy !req
440. and put an end to this
right now.Copy !req
441. I know what
you're about to say, but —Copy !req
442. no, Clark.
There are no buts with you.Copy !req
443. No exception to the rule.Copy !req
444. Now, superleap up there
and stop her.Copy !req
445. Look, I don't know.
It —Copy !req
446. yeah, okay. Okay, Clark,
you don't have to know.Copy !req
447. If you won't believe
in yourself,Copy !req
448. then let me
believe in you.Copy !req
449. Okay?Copy !req
450. I know that deep inside,Copy !req
451. you don't want to just
be a normal guyCopy !req
452. sitting behind a desk
reporting on disastersCopy !req
453. while you could be out there
stopping them.Copy !req
454. Now, use the power
you feel.Copy !req
455. The world needs you.Copy !req
456. Chloe!Copy !req
457. Wait, that's —Copy !req
458. impossible?
Only in your mind.Copy !req
459. Sometimes you just need
a little leap of faith.Copy !req
460. Come on, Clark.
You can do this.Copy !req
461. Up, up, and away.Copy !req
462. Daddy?Copy !req
463. You need to stop
this spell.Copy !req
464. Don't move.Copy !req
465. I need to bring
my father back.Copy !req
466. At what cost?Copy !req
467. Are you willing to sacrifice
your life for him?Copy !req
468. It's what he did for me.Copy !req
469. He wasn't meant to die.Copy !req
470. I owe him this.
I know the rules.Copy !req
471. A life for a life.Copy !req
472. I have to make it right.Copy !req
473. I'm not afraid.Copy !req
474. Do you really think your father
would want youCopy !req
475. to give up the life he gave you
to bring him back?Copy !req
476. What would you know
about losing the one manCopy !req
477. who made you
who you are?Copy !req
478. Everything.Copy !req
479. The day
that I lost my father,Copy !req
480. I thought my world
would never be the same.Copy !req
481. It felt like something had been
ripped away from me forever.Copy !req
482. But I had to let him go.Copy !req
483. Chloe!Copy !req
484. No.Copy !req
485. No, it was supposed to
be me.Copy !req
486. We don't get to choose.Copy !req
487. But we do get to choose
how we live the lifeCopy !req
488. that we've been given.Copy !req
489. I'm finally the man that
my father wanted me to be.Copy !req
490. What does your father
want you to be?Copy !req
491. I'm sorry.Copy !req
492. Close the door.Copy !req
493. Chloe?Copy !req
494. Peace offering
for missing your party.Copy !req
495. Casualties
of being a hero.Copy !req
496. Not everyone could have punched
through zatanna's whammyCopy !req
497. and saved the day.Copy !req
498. I couldn't have done it
without you.Copy !req
499. Thank you for reminding me
who I really am.Copy !req
500. Yeah, I guess rebooting
your superhero o.S.Copy !req
501. Rekindled the Chloe fire.Copy !req
502. Looks like,
uh, hero supportCopy !req
503. isn't just a day job
anymore.Copy !req
504. And for that...Copy !req
505. We eat bagels.Copy !req
506. Do you remember
everything?Copy !req
507. If you're
referring to myCopy !req
508. "just the facts,
ma'am" routine...Copy !req
509. It did feel as though
a weight had been lifted.Copy !req
510. Hmm.Copy !req
511. It must have been hard
to harness up again.Copy !req
512. To be honest,Copy !req
513. a life without responsibility
kind of felt empty.Copy !req
514. I mean,
this is who I am, Chloe.Copy !req
515. Every morning,
I wake up with a purpose.Copy !req
516. Yeah,
you're not the only oneCopy !req
517. who saw the world
through irony-colored glasses.Copy !req
518. Why did you wait so long
to tell me what was going on?Copy !req
519. Well,
let's face it, Clark.Copy !req
520. My life has been a little less
than desirable lately.Copy !req
521. I mean,
with Jimmy and everything.Copy !req
522. Chloe.Copy !req
523. And I can't deny
there's an appealCopy !req
524. to the dynamic duo's
weekly adventures.Copy !req
525. Well, you haven't
missed much.Copy !req
526. Things haven't exactly
been smooth between us lately.Copy !req
527. Look, I know
you don't want to openCopy !req
528. a can of Kryptonian worms
by telling her your secret.Copy !req
529. But whether
you like it or not,Copy !req
530. Lois Lane is a part
of your life now.Copy !req
531. And considering the nonstop
puppy-dog eyes you give her,Copy !req
532. I'm guessing
you don't mind much at all.Copy !req
533. Clark... Just because
you were burned onceCopy !req
534. doesn't mean that you
can't give it a second chance.Copy !req
535. Are we still talking
about me?Copy !req
536. Or are we talking
about you and Jimmy?Copy !req
537. Touché.Copy !req
538. Okay.Copy !req
539. I'm talking about neither of us
living in the past.Copy !req
540. You can never be
who you want to beCopy !req
541. if you're always looking
over your shoulderCopy !req
542. at what could have been.Copy !req
543. Cheers to that.Copy !req
544. What is this? You drop by
to kick my ass again?Copy !req
545. So much fun for me
the first time.Copy !req
546. I came to apologize.
I just —Copy !req
547. "bound by steel," right?Copy !req
548. That's what you said
to me backwards —Copy !req
549. "bound by steel"?Copy !req
550. I had plenty of time
to mull that overCopy !req
551. when you, uh —
you left me thereCopy !req
552. strung up to either die
or have my identity revealed.Copy !req
553. I can't ever totally make it up
to you or your friends,Copy !req
554. but I would like to try
to make sureCopy !req
555. that something like this
doesn't happen again.Copy !req
556. Here's a thought —
don't do it again.Copy !req
557. Hold on.
Just a second.Copy !req
558. It's...Copy !req
559. I know how difficultCopy !req
560. the sacrifices you made
must have been...Copy !req
561. Especially considering
how hell-bent you wereCopy !req
562. on getting
what you wanted.Copy !req
563. Well, anyway, in the end,
you made the tough choice,Copy !req
564. and, um...Copy !req
565. I can respect that.Copy !req
566. Just know that there are
far more dangerous peopleCopy !req
567. out there in the world
than me —Copy !req
568. people with much
greater controlCopy !req
569. of the genuinely nasty magics
than I do.Copy !req
570. So...Copy !req
571. If you ever run into my kind
of mischief again...Copy !req
572. Call me.Copy !req
573. And wherever I am,
this time, I'm on your side.Copy !req
574. So I guess this means you're
taking your show on the road.Copy !req
575. Thinking about taking
a little bit of time offCopy !req
576. to do some light reading.Copy !req
577. If I'm ever gonna do
my father proud...Copy !req
578. I've got a lot
of catching up to do.Copy !req
579. Uh, so...Copy !req
580. What —
what is this, exactly —Copy !req
581. some kind of magic spell
to summon you?Copy !req
582. I just hold it up,
say your name a couple times,Copy !req
583. and, uh, poof,
you appear?Copy !req
584. It's my phone number.Copy !req
585. Oh.Copy !req
586. Of course it is.Copy !req
587. Is there something
on your mind, Lois?Copy !req
588. So, how long did it take
for you to realizeCopy !req
589. that I wasn't
my usual charming self?Copy !req
590. Well, I have to admit,Copy !req
591. I should have picked up
on it sooner.Copy !req
592. You weren't as bossy
as usual.Copy !req
593. And Chloe let me drive.Copy !req
594. Well...Copy !req
595. Little blond sources
tell meCopy !req
596. that you don't mind
my assertive flair.Copy !req
597. Let me see it.Copy !req
598. Lois, I don't know
what you're talking about.Copy !req
599. You have a terrible
poker face, Smallville.Copy !req
600. Gimme, gimme.Copy !req
601. Wow.Copy !req
602. Who would have known
you were this sentimental?Copy !req
603. I think we should...
Hang it upCopy !req
604. so that everyone
can see it.Copy !req
605. This is a memento
from my first day on the job.Copy !req
606. And a constant reminder
there's only one Lois Lane.Copy !req
607. You better believe it.Copy !req
608. Big night?Copy !req
609. Mm, yeah. This guy
in first class asked me out,Copy !req
610. and I figured
why the hell not, right?Copy !req
611. Yeah.Copy !req
612. What about you?
Big plans?Copy !req
613. Oh, I'm just gonna
hang around here,Copy !req
614. you know,
follow up on a few things.Copy !req
615. You want me to call
you if anything comes
through the wireCopy !req
616. to see
if you're available?Copy !req
617. You mean if you want to
stand me up again?Copy !req
618. Lois, that was —
a mistake. Agreed.Copy !req
619. Why don't we just
table this wholeCopy !req
620. "office thrown togetherCopy !req
621. in the trenches sparks"
thing, okay?Copy !req
622. Back to basics.
Keep the game on the field.Copy !req
623. Yeah,
that's a good rule.Copy !req
624. You should add that
to the list.Copy !req
625. Ready?Copy !req
626. Ready as you are.Copy !req
627. Yeah.Copy !req
628. Chloe.Copy !req
629. This will mean leaving your old
life as a reporter behind.Copy !req
630. You sure you want to say goodbye
to that forever?Copy !req
631. You know, yesterdayCopy !req
632. I wouldn't have been able to
answer that question.Copy !req
633. But after spending the day
at the daily planet,Copy !req
634. I realized...Copy !req
635. That's someone
else's life.Copy !req
636. It's interesting.Copy !req
637. Every one seems to have
so much clarityCopy !req
638. after a dose
of the zatanna dust.Copy !req
639. It almost makes me wishCopy !req
640. I had my turn
at the magic lamp, too.Copy !req
641. I'll save you
the heel blisters.Copy !req
642. You already know
what you really want.Copy !req
643. We all do.
We just don't listen.Copy !req
644. And you're sure
this is it.Copy !req
645. This is where I belong.Copy !req
646. Aquaman online.Copy !req
647. Canary online.Copy !req
648. Cyborg online.Copy !req
649. Impulse online.Copy !req
650. Arrow online.Copy !req
651. Watchtower
is officially online.Copy !req
652. Let's get to work.Copy !req
