1. Ladies and gentlemen,
a cybertronic, self-sustaining heart.
Copy !req
2. Start preparations for transplant.
Copy !req
3. The subject is prepped for the upgrade.
Copy !req
4. Okay, my blurry, butt-kicking friend,
you were right.
Copy !req
5. Tess of the uber-villains is up to no good.
Copy !req
6. She is hoarding more meteor rock
than there is in all of Smallville.
Copy !req
7. Something tells me
the reason is behind that curtain.
Copy !req
8. Hank, huh?
Copy !req
9. I don't think so.
Copy !req
10. Tell that to the bean counters in H.R.
Copy !req
11. They didn't wanna chip in
to buy extra letters to spell Henrietta.
Copy !req
12. How did she get in here?
Copy !req
13. Inform the boss
the upgrade has been compromised.
Copy !req
14. Get rid of her.
Copy !req
15. Get off of me.
Copy !req
16. Oh, my God. He's gone. He's gone.
Copy !req
17. Lockdown. Now.
Copy !req
18. I need Sector 3 and 4 locked down
immediately. You, come with me.
Copy !req
19. Biohazard. Lockdown.
Copy !req
20. Biohazard. Lockdown.
Copy !req
21. - Oh, God.
- Lockdown.
Copy !req
22. Hi.
Copy !req
23. How'd you get in here?
Copy !req
24. How did I get in here?
Copy !req
25. - Well, it must have been some night.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
26. I was chasing down a red-hot lead,
and then hit a dead end.
Copy !req
27. Lois, what happened to you?
Copy !req
28. You know, I was just— I was trying too hard
to open up my The Hangover DVD.
Copy !req
29. You know, with Dad's Swiss army knife.
He was sure I wouldn't put it to good use.
Copy !req
30. - Wanna kiss it better, soldier?
- What's going on?
Copy !req
31. You've been AWOL for over a week.
Copy !req
32. I know we agreed a little mystery
between us would be good, but I'm worried.
Copy !req
33. Come on, I think it'd be a good idea
if there was nothing between us.
Copy !req
34. I think that can be arranged.
Copy !req
35. - Lois...
- Mm-hm?
Copy !req
36. I'm sorry, Smallville. It's Randall.
Copy !req
37. Could be the story of the century.
Copy !req
38. I can't risk a potential
could've, should've, would've.
Copy !req
39. It's okay. I wouldn't want you
to miss out on something big.
Copy !req
40. Really, really bad timing,
but I won't hold it against you.
Copy !req
41. Have you found
the information on Mercer I requested?
Copy !req
42. Yeah, she's running a secret underground
facility at Fourth and Lincoln...
Copy !req
43. where she's testing
some red form of meteor rocks.
Copy !req
44. Score one for obvious column.
I think you knew that...
Copy !req
45. since you saved me
from an early obituary, right?
Copy !req
46. Yeah.
Copy !req
47. What is she experimenting on?
Copy !req
48. You know what? If this isn't a matter
of life and death, I really—
Copy !req
49. I have to go.
Copy !req
50. Clark?
Copy !req
51. John Corben?
Copy !req
52. I gotta—
I gotta hand it to you, bright eyes.
Copy !req
53. You sure have a way of finding trouble.
Copy !req
54. Said the man who swatted me around like
a tether ball on our last arena challenge.
Copy !req
55. I just wanted to get you home.
Copy !req
56. I didn't— I didn't mean for you to see me.
Copy !req
57. Wait. Get me home?
Copy !req
58. When I woke up on the lab table,
they had altered me.
Copy !req
59. And my mind—
My mind is almost normal.
Copy !req
60. It is. It is.
Copy !req
61. Except for this upgrade here.
Copy !req
62. It's here. Look.
Copy !req
63. Upgrade?
Copy !req
64. John.
Copy !req
65. John, who did this to you?
Copy !req
66. - Tess?
- Her scientists did.
Copy !req
67. I heard them saying something
about slamming a chip in the back...
Copy !req
68. so they could control
everything that I do.
Copy !req
69. But then you helped me escape
before they could.
Copy !req
70. John? John, what's happening?
John, look at me.
Copy !req
71. My heart is gonna stop
if I don't find a meteor rock and refuel.
Copy !req
72. Thank you.
Copy !req
73. Okay. Vector ten-and-a-half feet north.
Copy !req
74. Have I sunk Lois' battleship?
Copy !req
75. Chloe, I can see 50 feet
in every direction.
Copy !req
76. There's no reason Lois would've been
in this spot...
Copy !req
77. - ... for two hours last night.
- You know...
Copy !req
78. not that I wanna wade into the salty
ocean of amour that is Lois and Clark...
Copy !req
79. but if you two are playing
Mr. and Mrs. Smith now...
Copy !req
80. don't you think
there might be a trust issue?
Copy !req
81. I'm worried
she's holding something back.
Copy !req
82. It's different when the control's
on the other foot.
Copy !req
83. You know, Clark, Lois trusts you.
Copy !req
84. Now you need to trust her.
Copy !req
85. - I do.
- Right.
Copy !req
86. And that's why you had me
LoJack her key chain?
Copy !req
87. Clark, I just checked the time code.
Copy !req
88. If we could rocket back a few hours,
you would be standing on Lois' shoulders.
Copy !req
89. Clark Kent at the keyboard?
Copy !req
90. Have I been downsized
in the bureaucratic world of superheroes?
Copy !req
91. I just got tired of waiting for you.
Copy !req
92. Oh, snap. Someone woke up on
the wrong side of the planet.
Copy !req
93. More like the wrong side of Lois.
That'll never happen again. Check this out.
Copy !req
94. What caught your better-than-bionic eye
this time?
Copy !req
95. It's Tess. It was her underground lab
that Lois was snooping around in.
Copy !req
96. What's with the thermo-radioactive scan
of North America?
Copy !req
97. She's storing meteor rock
around the country.
Copy !req
98. She's gonna pay for it.
Copy !req
99. Clark, wait.
Copy !req
100. As much as I would love to have Tess
out of our lives, you can't take her down.
Copy !req
101. You're connecting the dots
in the wrong order.
Copy !req
102. These deposits don't belong to Tess.
Copy !req
103. Tess is the only one who knows
what kryptonite can do to me.
Copy !req
104. Except for me...
Copy !req
105. and Oliver.
Copy !req
106. You and Oliver betrayed me.
Copy !req
107. It sounds worse than it actually—
Copy !req
108. You're stockpiling weapons
that can kill me.
Copy !req
109. Not you. Kryptonians.
Copy !req
110. I'm Kryptonian.
Copy !req
111. - The weapons are just insurance.
- In case what, Chloe?
Copy !req
112. In case I turned on you?
Copy !req
113. God, I was such a fool to think
that you could ever understand me.
Copy !req
114. You think you're better than Tess.
Copy !req
115. At least she didn't pretend
to be on my side all those years.
Copy !req
116. Clark, why don't you hear my side?
What if, someday, there was ever a war?
Copy !req
117. There is a war, Chloe, right now.
Copy !req
118. And you're about to lose it.
Copy !req
119. Corben.
Copy !req
120. John.
Copy !req
121. Lois, stay away.
Copy !req
122. - John?
- Stay back, Lois.
Copy !req
123. - Glad to see you're looking so good.
- Thanks.
Copy !req
124. You look pretty good too.
Copy !req
125. I meant, you know, strong.
Copy !req
126. I mean healthy, alive.
Copy !req
127. Right.
Copy !req
128. Maybe we should get out of here...
Copy !req
129. before The Blur decides
to light this place up like a Christmas tree.
Copy !req
130. The Blur did this to you?
Copy !req
131. I don't know how he found me.
Copy !req
132. Well, maybe he wasn't here for you.
Copy !req
133. Maybe he was following
a well-meaning source.
Copy !req
134. You did kind of go Phantom of the Boiler
Room last time you entered stage right.
Copy !req
135. Last time I checked,
this was private property.
Copy !req
136. Looks like Tess Mercer's skeleton
is finally crawling out of the closet.
Copy !req
137. Well, speaking of being hidden in the closet,
how's Oliver doing these days?
Copy !req
138. Don't worry
your pretty little head about that.
Copy !req
139. And by "head," I mean the one
that the secret government agency...
Copy !req
140. Checkmate is wanting to lop off.
Copy !req
141. That must really suck
to be on the outs of your own walls.
Copy !req
142. I'm guessing you'd know.
Copy !req
143. Since you're not cuddling up
to your own cyber-screens...
Copy !req
144. I'm venturing that Clark has finally
uncovered your kryptonite arsenal.
Copy !req
145. This is the last place I sent him.
Copy !req
146. I should have known Clark
took a walk down the ruby-red road.
Copy !req
147. That explains his lack of edit button.
Copy !req
148. I thought Clark was only affected
by green meteor.
Copy !req
149. What's the red do?
Copy !req
150. Basically it turns him into the bad boy
every girl dreams of...
Copy !req
151. in her nightmares.
Copy !req
152. And why should I care, huh?
Copy !req
153. Clark's made it clear
he's not my knight in shining armor...
Copy !req
154. which is why I made my own
all-purpose bodyguard.
Copy !req
155. Well, believe it or not, Tess,
this isn't all about you.
Copy !req
156. Sooner or later, Clark will out himself
and your merry band of Kryptonians.
Copy !req
157. If the world gets wind of their existence,
there's no turning back.
Copy !req
158. Right, but you can protect your alien
pet project if you help me find Clark.
Copy !req
159. The cleaning baptism
that redeems the soul.
Copy !req
160. Kierkegaard.
Copy !req
161. You have to enjoy the paradox.
Copy !req
162. The only thing on their planet
that can harm us is a piece of our own.
Copy !req
163. You lied about having powers.
Copy !req
164. How'd you get them?
Copy !req
165. From you.
Copy !req
166. From your blood.
Copy !req
167. When you saved me.
Copy !req
168. It's contradictory, isn't it?
Copy !req
169. But then again,
you are the greatest contradiction of all.
Copy !req
170. Dedicating your life to the greater good...
Copy !req
171. and at the same time,
deceiving those you love the most.
Copy !req
172. I'm the one who's been deceived.
Copy !req
173. Oh, come, come, Kal-El.
Copy !req
174. You have become far too calculating
to play the naive farm boy anymore.
Copy !req
175. Your closest friends fear you
because they will never understand you.
Copy !req
176. And how could they?
Copy !req
177. You need me.
Copy !req
178. Who else in your world
has ever truly been your equal?
Copy !req
179. I have no equal.
Copy !req
180. You really can't see it, can you?
Copy !req
181. A modern-day messiah whose symbol is
worshiped by the mere mortals at his feet.
Copy !req
182. A God who rips decisions
out of the hands of fate.
Copy !req
183. Now there is a real threat out there
to both of us.
Copy !req
184. With your map
of the kryptonite arsenals...
Copy !req
185. we can take out any defense they have
against us.
Copy !req
186. Nothing can stop us.
Copy !req
187. Now the question is...
Copy !req
188. who will you join?
Copy !req
189. Your friends?
Copy !req
190. Your friends, who have stockpiled weapons
around the world to kill you?
Copy !req
191. Or the one man
who weighs the same decisions...
Copy !req
192. struggles with the same dilemmas...
Copy !req
193. and who just saved your life?
Copy !req
194. Bus 187, the Northern Express...
Copy !req
195. is now boarding at Gate 6.
Copy !req
196. All passengers holding tickets
for New York—
Copy !req
197. Lois.
Copy !req
198. I appreciate you trying to help,
but I've got it from here, all right?
Copy !req
199. You get yourself into enough trouble
without me leading you to more.
Copy !req
200. I promised I'd get you to the military base
in South Dakota.
Copy !req
201. So, what are you,
my personal bodyguard?
Copy !req
202. My dad assured me Dr. Vale
is the best guy around.
Copy !req
203. So whether you like it or not,
you're stuck with me.
Copy !req
204. As nice as that sounds...
Copy !req
205. I could have Tess Mercer's entire defense
division descending on me any minute.
Copy !req
206. Exactly.
Copy !req
207. When you're free and clear and planting
your homestead spike in the badlands...
Copy !req
208. then I'll send you the sayonara.
Copy !req
209. Here, let me help you with that.
Copy !req
210. Oh, that's so kind of you.
Copy !req
211. John?
Copy !req
212. Hey.
Copy !req
213. For someone so reticent
about joining forces...
Copy !req
214. you've certainly wasted no time
in destroying Chloe's kryptonite stock hold.
Copy !req
215. I'm sure there's some quote
about betrayal stinging the most...
Copy !req
216. when it's from someone you trust.
Copy !req
217. Your father could have rattled it off.
Copy !req
218. - You remind me of him.
- Yeah. Well, I'd rather not hear it.
Copy !req
219. I didn't get the chance to know him
like you did.
Copy !req
220. Don't get me wrong.
We used to fight until all hours of the night.
Copy !req
221. So, what, he was stubborn, like me?
Copy !req
222. Yeah.
Copy !req
223. But that never meant
that I didn't respect him.
Copy !req
224. You must have had a friend
that you had a connection with...
Copy !req
225. like you were opposite sides
of the same soul.
Copy !req
226. Yeah. Once. A long time ago.
Copy !req
227. You no longer have to be worried
about people envying you...
Copy !req
228. or fearing you...
Copy !req
229. because you have a family now,
a family who understands.
Copy !req
230. Good.
Copy !req
231. Maybe it's time to live a little.
Copy !req
232. It's quite a view.
Copy !req
233. Everything seems so clear from up here.
Copy !req
234. I'm asking myself
why it took me so long to see it.
Copy !req
235. Sometimes it just takes somebody
to share your perspective.
Copy !req
236. If only your father could see us.
Copy !req
237. He can.
Copy !req
238. How would you like to say hello
to your old friend Jor-El?
Copy !req
239. But first, let's give the people of Seattle
a little surprise.
Copy !req
240. Well, my ops found
our soldier of fortune on a bus.
Copy !req
241. - Any luck with your problem child?
- How often does it snow in Seattle?
Copy !req
242. Not a great time
for a game of Trivial Pursuit, Chloe.
Copy !req
243. No. Seriously, Tess.
Copy !req
244. Seattle just had a fluke snowstorm
with the temperature at 64 degrees.
Copy !req
245. Oh, I got it. Thank God for blogging.
Copy !req
246. They saw something vaulting
towards the space needle six minutes ago.
Copy !req
247. Guess who's coming for dinner
together...
Copy !req
248. with powers.
Copy !req
249. But you already knew that, didn't you?
Copy !req
250. What I don't know
is why the sudden bromance.
Copy !req
251. Welcome home, brother.
Copy !req
252. Well, he isn't exactly rolling out the
welcome mat, is he? Nothing's working.
Copy !req
253. Which figures.
Copy !req
254. As soon as I embrace my heritage,
you vanish.
Copy !req
255. Given what you told me about my role in
the last days of Krypton, I'm not surprised.
Copy !req
256. Well, he can't blame you
for something you haven't done yet.
Copy !req
257. It took you almost a year
to warm up to me.
Copy !req
258. I wouldn't expect my discerning old friend
to give me any more latitude.
Copy !req
259. It's all right. I've learned everything I need
from this thing anyway.
Copy !req
260. Well, don't be too quick to dismiss
what Jor-El has to offer you, Kal-El.
Copy !req
261. Trust me, I can live
without constant lectures and mind games.
Copy !req
262. How about the answers
to everything in the universe?
Copy !req
263. Give me a break.
Copy !req
264. I was a skeptic too.
Copy !req
265. On Krypton, our children are raised
to revere the red sun god, Rao.
Copy !req
266. Unlike your civilizations,
superstition has no place in our beliefs.
Copy !req
267. Religion is science...
Copy !req
268. not some mystical questioning of it.
Copy !req
269. Your father left our bible,
the Book of Rao, on this Earth.
Copy !req
270. And what with all of this,
and the knowledge in that book...
Copy !req
271. Kal-El, there is no limit
to what we can achieve.
Copy !req
272. I lost the GPS feed.
Copy !req
273. Where'd you send him?
Copy !req
274. On a hunch.
Copy !req
275. Tess.
Copy !req
276. How not surprised am I to see you here.
Copy !req
277. By the way, this is the least-secret
secret lab I've ever been in. Twice.
Copy !req
278. I am so sorry to disappoint you, Lois.
Copy !req
279. I doubt the government is gonna want
their covert defense programs...
Copy !req
280. on the front page of the Daily Planet,
so if you could just, shh.
Copy !req
281. I saw what you did to Corben.
Copy !req
282. I was on the bus when you sent me
on a tranq trip to Mount Rushmore.
Copy !req
283. You can't cover this up, Tess.
Copy !req
284. Sorry, Lo.
Copy !req
285. You take care of her,
and I'll clean the rest of this up...
Copy !req
286. to make sure that no one will believe
Lois' trip down the rabbit hole.
Copy !req
287. How did he get in here?
Copy !req
288. Chloe.
Copy !req
289. Well, I sure do like what you've done
with the place.
Copy !req
290. And I thought I got a chilly welcome.
Copy !req
291. I don't blame you for frying me.
Copy !req
292. But someone who cares about you
sent me here to save you.
Copy !req
293. And I owe you one.
Copy !req
294. Is this my lucky day to be saved?
Copy !req
295. Kal-El.
Copy !req
296. Take it from someone who's been there.
Copy !req
297. We don't always know
when we need saving.
Copy !req
298. You can thank me another time.
Copy !req
299. Zod.
Copy !req
300. God, do you take lessons
on how to do that?
Copy !req
301. Okay. Isn't the appropriate response,
"Thank God, you're still alive.
Copy !req
302. Too bad you're wearing clothes
this time"?
Copy !req
303. Yes, that's it.
Copy !req
304. The first part.
Copy !req
305. So how did you get away from Mercer?
Copy !req
306. Uh...
Copy !req
307. It involved a secret cave...
Copy !req
308. action sequence out of the Ice Capades,
and your best friend.
Copy !req
309. Maybe this makes up for everything.
Copy !req
310. Where'd you get that?
Copy !req
311. Souvenir from my own little adventure.
Copy !req
312. You know, the first time I saw you, I never
thought that you'd end up being my hero.
Copy !req
313. Of course, I was hoping to escape
with a different heart.
Copy !req
314. You know, Lois...
Copy !req
315. you're the only one
that's been honest...
Copy !req
316. and loyal and brave.
Copy !req
317. Wow, that's a scary-high pedestal
of adjectives you just put me on.
Copy !req
318. You're the only one
that's given me a chance. I...
Copy !req
319. I mean,
I can't ever tell anyone else about me.
Copy !req
320. You're the only chance that I have
of living an honest...
Copy !req
321. honest life.
Copy !req
322. And if I were gonna disappear again...
Copy !req
323. I would wanna disappear with you.
Copy !req
324. Oh.
Copy !req
325. Me.
Copy !req
326. John, that means a lot.
Copy !req
327. But I'm with someone else.
He's a little on the squeaky side...
Copy !req
328. so I probably won't pull back the curtain
and reveal our wild and crazy ride...
Copy !req
329. but he is it for me.
Copy !req
330. Okay.
Copy !req
331. Sorry. I, uh...
Copy !req
332. You have one of those words for now?
Copy !req
333. Um...
Copy !req
334. Maybe if this were another lifetime.
Copy !req
335. Yeah.
Copy !req
336. You know, I really...
Copy !req
337. hope that your guy
knows who you really are...
Copy !req
338. because you are a real...
Copy !req
339. dame, Lois Lane.
Copy !req
340. You're not that naive, are you?
Copy !req
341. If Kal-El and I can work together,
why wouldn't I try?
Copy !req
342. Because he doesn't have
your best interest at heart.
Copy !req
343. But you and I,
we have a commitment to each other.
Copy !req
344. You're not backing out on me, are you?
Copy !req
345. Well, I'm not the one that sent
a modern-day metal Nero to attack you.
Copy !req
346. No.
Copy !req
347. Not today.
Copy !req
348. You can't bet everything we've worked for,
including the safety of your people...
Copy !req
349. on someone
who's so quick to switch allegiances.
Copy !req
350. I don't think you have any idea
of the power that lies within Kal-El.
Copy !req
351. Well, I hope you're right.
Copy !req
352. Because you're losing control
of the Kandorians.
Copy !req
353. I discovered a secret rebellion.
Copy !req
354. A group of your people
have turned against you...
Copy !req
355. and are looking to a new leader.
Copy !req
356. Clark.
Copy !req
357. I didn't think it would be a good idea
to get the handyman to repair this.
Copy !req
358. If I had an apology on video, it would
have saved me a lot of time this year.
Copy !req
359. Well, I'd say I did my fair share
of trespassing, as well.
Copy !req
360. The part where you were amassing
the only weapons that can kill me?
Copy !req
361. Yeah, that would be the part.
Copy !req
362. Maybe you were the one seeing things
clearly from the beginning.
Copy !req
363. There's something I didn't tell you
about the future.
Copy !req
364. That your kryptonite armory was
the only thing that saved the world.
Copy !req
365. And me teaming up with Zod...
Copy !req
366. turning my back on you and Oliver,
that wasn't all the Red Kryptonite.
Copy !req
367. Curious.
Copy !req
368. I think it was some sort
of wish-fulfillment thing for me.
Copy !req
369. Clark, if you wanted to redecorate
the place, all you had to do was ask.
Copy !req
370. It's just that seeing you and Lois together,
you're like sisters.
Copy !req
371. The two of you have an understanding,
a shorthand that I've never known.
Copy !req
372. We're family.
Copy !req
373. That's something
I don't have much of anymore.
Copy !req
374. I mean, Zod and I...
Copy !req
375. we've been on different sides.
Copy !req
376. We were raised in different worlds.
Copy !req
377. But somehow, through the isolation
and the burdens, losing our home...
Copy !req
378. trying to manage in somebody else's, he
understands things about me nobody can.
Copy !req
379. Chloe, he's the closest thing to a brother
that I may ever know.
Copy !req
380. Some of our brothers and sisters
have defected.
Copy !req
381. I'm afraid we've been betrayed.
Copy !req
382. But we will prevail.
Copy !req
383. The time has come
to share in your birthright.
