1. Previously on
Superman & Lois...Copy !req
2. Your mom wanted us
to move to Smallville.Copy !req
3. This family needs Smallville.Copy !req
4. I think I did this to him.Copy !req
5. The bonfire, I think
my heat vision caused an explosionCopy !req
6. and it affected him somehow.Copy !req
7. - So, where's Tag now?
- He's with the doctors at the DOD.Copy !req
8. So what exactly brings a Reuters
tech reporter to Smallville, Kansas?Copy !req
9. Just want to be on Team Lois.Copy !req
10. I think I may have found
a way to get a look inside the mines.Copy !req
11. I don't think it was Derek.Copy !req
12. His powers were erratic,
like Tag Harris.Copy !req
13. Well, whatever Edge and Leslie
are doing with that machine,Copy !req
14. it has something to do with the mines.Copy !req
15. We now own the rights to this land,Copy !req
16. which holds enough X-Kryptonite
to resurrect an army.Copy !req
17. - Tag?
- What did you do to me?Copy !req
18. Try and outrun me? Not anymore.Copy !req
19. Tag, I don't know what...Copy !req
20. I want the truth, Kent.Copy !req
21. At the bonfire party,
when you broke my arm...Copy !req
22. what did you do to me?Copy !req
23. I don't know what you're talking about...Copy !req
24. Liar!Copy !req
25. Ever since that night,
I've been different.Copy !req
26. I can move so fast.Copy !req
27. And I saw Teague's video.
Something caused that explosion.Copy !req
28. You were right there.
And I know you're different, too.Copy !req
29. You better tell me how to fix it.Copy !req
30. - Superman?
- I'm not gonna hurt you. Wait!Copy !req
31. Are you okay? Are you okay?Copy !req
32. Tag, don't!Copy !req
33. He got you pretty good, kid.Copy !req
34. It's... It's all right.Copy !req
35. Yeah, I thought you had, like,
super-durability or whatever?Copy !req
36. I don't know what I have.Copy !req
37. I... I tried to fight back,
but he was stronger and faster.Copy !req
38. My head is pounding.Copy !req
39. Your abilities are evolving.Copy !req
40. You can heal faster,
but you can still get hurt.Copy !req
41. What did Tag want, anyways?Copy !req
42. Answers.Copy !req
43. He wanted to know how he got powers.
Why he's at the DOD.Copy !req
44. - He thinks I did this to him.
- Why would he think that?Copy !req
45. Because he saw the video
of the explosion I caused at the mines.Copy !req
46. I know. Look,
he doesn't know everything,Copy !req
47. but he knows something's up.Copy !req
48. What if he says something? I mean...Copy !req
49. Guys, will you just give me and your mom
a second to talk about this, please?Copy !req
50. I hate the Internet.Copy !req
51. Your dad called.Copy !req
52. Assured me that he's on this.Copy !req
53. Apparently, Tag escaped
the DOD by some fluke.Copy !req
54. His abilities accelerated,
they didn't know what he was capable of,Copy !req
55. and now they're putting together
some planCopy !req
56. to track him and
get him back in custody.Copy !req
57. - And if he gets to Jordan first?
- I'll keep an eye out.Copy !req
58. This wouldn't be happening
if it wasn't for Morgan Edge.Copy !req
59. Whatever gave Tag those powers
came from those mines.Copy !req
60. And now he wants to extract more of it
and make more Derek Powells.Copy !req
61. What if you went there?Copy !req
62. I flew over the mines. I scanned
the tunnels. I can't see inside.Copy !req
63. They've lined them with lead fiber.Copy !req
64. So, I need to investigate.Copy !req
65. Find proof of wrongdoing,Copy !req
66. hand it over to the authorities
and get a proper warrant.Copy !req
67. Slow down. Okay, I can find out...Copy !req
68. No, I want you focused on the boys
until Tag is back in custody.Copy !req
69. In the meantime,
I got to break this case open.Copy !req
70. Think about it. Edge is
giving people Kryptonian powers,Copy !req
71. and all of this at the same time
some armored lunatic arrivesCopy !req
72. who knows Superman's real name?Copy !req
73. You think Morgan Edge is the Stranger?Copy !req
74. Maybe. I don't know.Copy !req
75. I'm gonna find out.Copy !req
76. Dude, Jamie Cutter's literally been
talking smack about the game all week.Copy !req
77. That guy is such a dick.Copy !req
78. Hey, hey, language.Copy !req
79. - You okay?
- Yeah. Yeah, it's just a headache.Copy !req
80. Jordan, how would you feel
about sitting out tomorrow's game?Copy !req
81. Why?Copy !req
82. Well, for one, you might still
be affected by what happened with Tag.Copy !req
83. What does that have to do with football?Copy !req
84. Yeah, Dad. I mean, look,
it's Metropolis, okay?Copy !req
85. This is literally
the biggest game of the season.Copy !req
86. - It's our old school. I mean, I...
- No, I get that.Copy !req
87. But until we have this under control,
we've got to be careful.Copy !req
88. Dad, I have to play in this game.Copy !req
89. This is really important to me.Copy !req
90. Please?Copy !req
91. You promise you're
a hundred percent healthy?Copy !req
92. Yeah.Copy !req
93. - Totally good to go?
- Totally good to go.Copy !req
94. Okay. All right. Then, after school,
you're gonna prove it.Copy !req
95. This is proof my suspicions
were correct.Copy !req
96. Smallville is the community that's going
to help me change the world.Copy !req
97. So, without further ado,
I'll hand over to my wonderful staffCopy !req
98. who can assist in getting you
all back to work.Copy !req
99. - Yeah! Whoo! Yeah!
- Thank you very much.Copy !req
100. Oh, Mr. Edge, this is, uh...Copy !req
101. It's gonna put
a lot of people back on their feet.Copy !req
102. I cannot thank you enough.Copy !req
103. No, no. I'm the one
who should be thanking you.Copy !req
104. All this is possible
because of your advocacy.Copy !req
105. Persuading people to give me a shot.Copy !req
106. In fact, I'd like to
capitalize on our momentum.Copy !req
107. Hey, whatever you need,
you say the word.Copy !req
108. Well, the Smallville team
needs a strong leader.Copy !req
109. And I'd like to
fill that role with you, Lana.Copy !req
110. With me?Copy !req
111. The work you did
at the bank with reverse mortgagesCopy !req
112. shows me you're not
just highly competent,Copy !req
113. you also have the people's trust.Copy !req
114. And I want to use that trust
to revitalize Smallville,Copy !req
115. starting with the community center.Copy !req
116. Yeah.Copy !req
117. I'm grateful.Copy !req
118. I don't know what to say.Copy !req
119. Well, when you see your new
starting salary, you'll say yes.Copy !req
120. Should I deal with her?Copy !req
121. Why bother?Copy !req
122. What can she do?Copy !req
123. Figured out how to get in there yet?Copy !req
124. Doing about as well as you, Marcus.Copy !req
125. May the best reporter win.Copy !req
126. He's just worried about you, man.
You need to cut Dad a little slack.Copy !req
127. Yeah, I know
he's just looking out for me, but...Copy !req
128. He thinks I'm made of glass.Copy !req
129. This is my shot to finally show
these Metropolis d-bags who's boss.Copy !req
130. Come on. I'm not gonna sit that out.Copy !req
131. I get that. But I'm just saying...Copy !req
132. What?Copy !req
133. You don't have to slam it every time.Copy !req
134. - Dude, I didn't even slam it at all.
- Oh, hey, guys.Copy !req
135. - Oh, my God. What happened to your face?
- Um...Copy !req
136. You get beat up
on your way home or something?Copy !req
137. Uh, we were running plays
this morning in the front yardCopy !req
138. and then I juked him
and he tripped and fell.Copy !req
139. Well, I hope you do better
tomorrow at the gameCopy !req
140. 'cause I'd hate to go all the way
to MetropolisCopy !req
141. just to see you eat it.Copy !req
142. You're coming?Copy !req
143. Uh, yeah, friends can root for friends.
Right?Copy !req
144. I think I'm starting to see
why you're so hyped for this game.Copy !req
145. - Mmm.
- Huh?Copy !req
146. What? Hey, Jordan, Jordan.
What's going on? Hey.Copy !req
147. Hey.Copy !req
148. Jordan. Jordan.Copy !req
149. Just breathe. Just breathe.Copy !req
150. Hey. Hey.Copy !req
151. What the hell was that, okay?
That was not a panic attack.Copy !req
152. It's my head.Copy !req
153. Since Tag jumped me,Copy !req
154. I've been hearing this really loud,
high-pitched noise.Copy !req
155. Jordan, if this has to do with your
superpowers, then you need to tell Dad.Copy !req
156. You might need to go to the Fortress
to figure out what's wrong.Copy !req
157. - We can't tell Dad, all right?
- Jordan, you need to tell him.Copy !req
158. Look, if we tell Dad, he won't let me
play football tomorrow.Copy !req
159. - Jordan.
- Jon, let me have this.Copy !req
160. Those Metropolis guys,
Woodrum, Cutter, Campana,Copy !req
161. they made my life hell.Copy !req
162. Just let me shut 'em up. Just this once.Copy !req
163. All right, bye. That was Bill Hastings.Copy !req
164. Starts work next week.Copy !req
165. Hadn't heard him this excited
since Junior was born.Copy !req
166. You're changing lives, babe.Copy !req
167. - Yeah.
- Hey, are you okay?Copy !req
168. Yeah.Copy !req
169. Silly, but... I don't know.Copy !req
170. I just thought that Edge
might have had something for me.Copy !req
171. You know, some managerial work
or something like that.Copy !req
172. I know, but do you really want that?Copy !req
173. I mean, you love being a fireman,Copy !req
174. and if I'm getting this promotion,
isn't that a win for both of us?Copy !req
175. I'll be right back, baby.Copy !req
176. Lois. I'm gonna go grab Lana.Copy !req
177. Actually, Kyle, I was hoping
that I could talk to you, too.Copy !req
178. Come on in.Copy !req
179. This may sound bizarre,
but I have reason to believeCopy !req
180. that Morgan Edge is engaged
in both illegal and dangerous activityCopy !req
181. and I'm asking for your help to get
into the mines so that I can prove it.Copy !req
182. So let me get this straight.Copy !req
183. Even though Edge just gave Lana
this massive promotion,Copy !req
184. you want us to go behind his back
and help you with a news story?Copy !req
185. - I know it's a big ask.
- It's pretty big, yeah.Copy !req
186. Listen, I'm not alone in my suspicions.Copy !req
187. You both know that I know Superman.Copy !req
188. - He's looking into Edge, too.
- Superman? What for?Copy !req
189. I can't tell you that yet.Copy !req
190. - Of course you can't.
- Does Clark know about this?Copy !req
191. He doesn't know I'm here. No.
I'm just trying to explain...Copy !req
192. Explain what? You've got no proof.Copy !req
193. - You got no evidence.
- Kyle, I would tell you if I could.Copy !req
194. I am asking you to trust me.Copy !req
195. Oh, you want me to trust you?
You know what I should doCopy !req
196. is I should call Edge
and we should get a restraining order...Copy !req
197. Okay. Kyle, please.Copy !req
198. Listen, I just got off the phone
with a buddy of mineCopy !req
199. who hadn't worked in eight months.Copy !req
200. He's got mouths to feed, Lois.Copy !req
201. And right now, Edge is the only personCopy !req
202. that's given his family
a chance to survive.Copy !req
203. I know it seems like he's helping,
but he hasn't...Copy !req
204. No, he is helping.Copy !req
205. A lot more than you are.Copy !req
206. I came to you guys because you're
my friends and I need help.Copy !req
207. I know I may be biased,
but you don't knowCopy !req
208. what it's like to see this town dry up.Copy !req
209. The things I've seen,
foreclosing on people...Copy !req
210. This is our chance to help.Copy !req
211. I'm sorry, Lois.Copy !req
212. Lana, you know that I respect you.Copy !req
213. So I am telling you
something sinister is going on here,Copy !req
214. and you might not find out what it is
until it's too late.Copy !req
215. So just be careful.Copy !req
216. - So why are we down here?
- Training.Copy !req
217. The stuff your grandfather used
to teach me how to control my strength.Copy !req
218. Now it's my turn
to give you a few pointers.Copy !req
219. Why? So he can, like, protect himself
from Tag or something?Copy !req
220. Well, there's that.Copy !req
221. And given your raw power,
we want to make sure you can control it.Copy !req
222. Yeah, I mean, a random super freak-out
would really suck.Copy !req
223. Yeah.Copy !req
224. Anyway, let's start with this.Copy !req
225. Am I somehow supposed
to crack this in half?Copy !req
226. Nope, just punch it.Copy !req
227. Don't I need gloves or something?Copy !req
228. Do you trust me?Copy !req
229. Ouch.Copy !req
230. - Thanks, Dad.
- Yep, yep, okay.Copy !req
231. No,
I thought we'd try going on instinct,Copy !req
232. but obviously that was the wrong
approach. Uh, right foot back.Copy !req
233. Put your hand up and make a fist.
Curl your thumb.Copy !req
234. Bring it back.Copy !req
235. Transfer the weight.Copy !req
236. - Follow through.
- Okay.Copy !req
237. Okay.Copy !req
238. Jordan, imagine...Copy !req
239. Imagine this big log is Cutter's face.Copy !req
240. - He's just laughing at you.
- Pop him.Copy !req
241. - You got it.
- Come on.Copy !req
242. Believe you can do this and you will.
You're stronger than you think you are.Copy !req
243. Got it.Copy !req
244. Now.Copy !req
245. Yes!Copy !req
246. - Yes!
- Yo, that's what I'm talking about.Copy !req
247. Yes, sir!Copy !req
248. - Oh, my God!
- See? Line it up again.Copy !req
249. Okay, wait, wait. Hold on, wait.Copy !req
250. - Hey, Sam.
- Harris was spotted in Metropolis.Copy !req
251. In Metropolis?Copy !req
252. - Are you sure?
- He's fast. Hard to track.Copy !req
253. Why? Something I need to know about?Copy !req
254. That's where
the boys' football game is tomorrow.Copy !req
255. You stay with the boys.
I'll have my guys on site.Copy !req
256. We have a plan
to put this monster back in his cage.Copy !req
257. He's not a monster, Sam. He's a kid.Copy !req
258. - Nobody's helping him. He's scared.
- Helping?Copy !req
259. He attacked my grandson.Copy !req
260. No, I underestimated him once.Copy !req
261. He broke out of
a state-of-the-art facility.Copy !req
262. His speed rivals yours.Copy !req
263. There's no telling
what damage he could do.Copy !req
264. I don't have time to worry
about feelings.Copy !req
265. I need to incapacitate a threat.Copy !req
266. That's what I'm gonna do.Copy !req
267. Getting a sitter?Copy !req
268. I'm trying, but nobody we know
is available for tomorrow.Copy !req
269. - What's tomorrow?
- Your dad's taking me to dinner.Copy !req
270. We're celebrating my new promotion.Copy !req
271. Wow.Copy !req
272. Dad finally got over himself
long enough to think,Copy !req
273. "Maybe I should congratulate my wife."Copy !req
274. Were you listening to our conversation?Copy !req
275. It's not that big of a house.Copy !req
276. Sarah.Copy !req
277. Your dad, he's trying.Copy !req
278. I can watch Sophie.Copy !req
279. But what about the game?Copy !req
280. There's other games.Copy !req
281. - Sarah.
- Mom...Copy !req
282. Your new job,
it's kind of like a really big dealCopy !req
283. and you absolutely deserve
to go and celebrate.Copy !req
284. I guess.Copy !req
285. I guess it's a big deal.Copy !req
286. Yeah, you work really hard
and you give back to the community,Copy !req
287. so you do deserve
all the karma you're getting.Copy !req
288. Mmm.Copy !req
289. Who knows? Maybe this is just the start.Copy !req
290. We're now in the second
quarter of a surprisingly close game.Copy !req
291. Let's go! It's all done
if we don't show them.Copy !req
292. - Hey, you okay?
- Yeah, I'm fine.Copy !req
293. Hey, short stuff.Copy !req
294. You see that linebacker, 55, out there?
He's been killing us all day.Copy !req
295. Now, look, I want you to go in there
and you knock him on his backside.Copy !req
296. You got that?Copy !req
297. Let's go. Let's go!Copy !req
298. Gonna stick your ass, Jojo.
Just like grade school.Copy !req
299. Here we go. Keep an eye up!Copy !req
300. Come on now!Copy !req
301. Jeez!Copy !req
302. Ooh, looks like
the Crows' quarterback is hurt.Copy !req
303. So he's got a sprained elbow.Copy !req
304. I tried telling Jordan
it's not really his fault.Copy !req
305. Yeah, I'm sure that helped.Copy !req
306. What about our other problem?
Any sign of our friend Tag?Copy !req
307. No. There's a pretty big DOD presence.Copy !req
308. Guess I should thank your dad for that.Copy !req
309. Well, the sooner we find that kid,
the sooner this will all be over.Copy !req
310. Yeah.Copy !req
311. It's the "how" that worries me.Copy !req
312. Clark, with everything that's going on,
are you sure Jordan's okay?Copy !req
313. I don't know.Copy !req
314. Something's going on,
but he won't talk to me.Copy !req
315. Keep an eye on him. On both of them.Copy !req
316. This can't be easy for them,
playing their old schoolCopy !req
317. and seeing all the kids they knew.Copy !req
318. Yeah.Copy !req
319. Hut!Copy !req
320. Come on!Copy !req
321. We gotta do our jobs.Copy !req
322. Pick it up now! Let's go!Copy !req
323. - Focus!
- Coach. We need to throw that ball.Copy !req
324. I don't got a quarterback, Kent.Copy !req
325. You do, Coach. You got me.Copy !req
326. I know our plays. I know their defense.Copy !req
327. I got this, okay?Copy !req
328. All right, Kent.Copy !req
329. - Strong right slot, Z Panther on three.
- Got it.Copy !req
330. Let's go!Copy !req
331. Go get 'em, 12.Copy !req
332. What a game
this has been so far.Copy !req
333. There's no love lost
between these two teams.Copy !req
334. Whoo-hoo, Big boy Kent.Copy !req
335. Hey, you know
I'm with your girl Eliza now, right?Copy !req
336. She wanted you to know.Copy !req
337. Blue 72.Copy !req
338. Hut!Copy !req
339. Touchdown, Smallville.Copy !req
340. Yeah, attaboy! Whoo-hoo!Copy !req
341. You liked that, Cutter?Copy !req
342. Hey, Jordan, get over here.Copy !req
343. - You reign it in or you're done.
- I was just making a block.Copy !req
344. That's not what I'm talking about,
and you know it.Copy !req
345. You understand me?Copy !req
346. - Yeah.
- Good. Go sit down.Copy !req
347. Hell, use me as your unnamed source.Copy !req
348. All I need is a press pass
from the Post.Copy !req
349. I'll call you back.Copy !req
350. No, I'm not mad. Just find me a pass.Copy !req
351. Who is it?Copy !req
352. Your new best friend.Copy !req
353. What are you doing here, Marcus?Copy !req
354. Still open to sharing a byline?Copy !req
355. Friend of mine got hands on
a couple inspector badges.Copy !req
356. One's for you... if you want it.Copy !req
357. You somehow get not one
but two inspector badgesCopy !req
358. and you're just going to give me
one of them to be nice?Copy !req
359. They're working around the clock
to get those mines ready.Copy !req
360. Right now, the tunnels
are packed with inspectors.Copy !req
361. Security is stretched thin.
A lone Black guy might look suspicious,Copy !req
362. but the two of us together,
it'll seem more legit.Copy !req
363. So, are you in...Copy !req
364. or out?Copy !req
365. Are you kidding me?
This is your idea of a disguise?Copy !req
366. - It's kind of a clown show.
- Let me do the talking, okay?Copy !req
367. You just try to look inspector-y.Copy !req
368. "Inspector-y."Copy !req
369. - Mine safety.
- That team checked in hours ago.Copy !req
370. Had to grab more equipment.Copy !req
371. Between you and me,
Sullivan is an idiot.Copy !req
372. - He can't plan a survey.
- All right, go ahead.Copy !req
373. All right, cool. Thanks, man.Copy !req
374. Wanna watch a classic?
There's Wizard of Oz...Copy !req
375. But I like animation.Copy !req
376. We can get a new one on streaming.Copy !req
377. No, I'm not going to buy...Copy !req
378. Look, Soph, I'm fine with the whole
Saturday sister bonding time.Copy !req
379. I kind of embrace it.Copy !req
380. But, dude, seriously,
we're going to haveCopy !req
381. to find something we both want to watch.Copy !req
382. Please?Copy !req
383. Okay, that's the pizza guy. Get up.Copy !req
384. Okay, go get your stuffies
and your blanketsCopy !req
385. and then you can pick
whatever movie you want.Copy !req
386. Just... I'll be back after
I'm done emotionally preparing.Copy !req
387. - Love you, too. Little brat.
- Love you.Copy !req
388. - Tag.
- Hey, Sarah.Copy !req
389. Thought you went to go live with
your dad. Are you back in town?Copy !req
390. The truth is... complicated.Copy !req
391. You've always been my friend.Copy !req
392. You stick up for people when you know...Copy !req
393. No!Copy !req
394. Sarah. Sarah.Copy !req
395. The Crows lead 35-13
in the fourth quarterCopy !req
396. with only seconds left on the clock.Copy !req
397. Nobody saw this coming,
least of all the Metropolis players.Copy !req
398. And they look absolutely stunned.Copy !req
399. Blue 72. Hut!Copy !req
400. Touchdown, Crows.Copy !req
401. Yeah, attaboy!Copy !req
402. The Crows win. What an upset.Copy !req
403. Looks like a fight
has broken out midfield.Copy !req
404. I don't think I have ever seen
anything like this.Copy !req
405. - Whoa, whoa, whoa!
- Hey! Hey!Copy !req
406. Hey! Wait, get back!Copy !req
407. Hey! Hey, Jordan, are you okay?Copy !req
408. I can't hold it in.Copy !req
409. Here, let it out, right now.Copy !req
410. I had a really good time tonight.Copy !req
411. Well, good,
'cause that dinner wasn't cheap.Copy !req
412. Listen, um,
we didn't talk about logistics.Copy !req
413. With my new hours,
how that might affect the kidsCopy !req
414. or how you feel about it.Copy !req
415. Whatever we got to do,
we're going to do. Okay?Copy !req
416. - I know, but...
- No, there's no buts.Copy !req
417. Yeah, maybe I'm a little disappointed.
But it's fine.Copy !req
418. You saw Morgan Edge
as an opportunity before anybody.Copy !req
419. Of course you should
be rewarded for that.Copy !req
420. - He's an idiot if he can't see...
- He is not an idiot, okay?Copy !req
421. He promoted you after all, right?Copy !req
422. Listen, babe,
you got to know I'm real proud of you.Copy !req
423. I mean, you are the brains
of this family, after all.Copy !req
424. We all know that.
You deserve to be happy.Copy !req
425. I'm happy.Copy !req
426. Well, good. And whatever comes next...Copy !req
427. - I think we will handle... together.
- Mmm-hmm.Copy !req
428. Did you get me dessert?Copy !req
429. Oh, sweets. It's way past your bedtime.Copy !req
430. - Where is your sister?
- I think she's in her room.Copy !req
431. Yeah, go check.Copy !req
432. Come here.Copy !req
433. No.Copy !req
434. It's not like Sarah to just leave.Copy !req
435. I'm gonna check the security
cam footage.Copy !req
436. For the hundredth time,
I'm fine.Copy !req
437. No, you're not.Copy !req
438. You just detonated like a bombCopy !req
439. in the middle of
a high school football gameCopy !req
440. in front of a crowd full of people.Copy !req
441. I could have controlled it, all right?
I let it go 'cause you were there.Copy !req
442. Yeah, but what if I wasn't?Copy !req
443. Jordan, sit up and look at me.Copy !req
444. Do you understand
how dangerous this could be?Copy !req
445. Tell me exactly what happened.
Were there any symptoms?Copy !req
446. Any signs? Something that would have
made you think that this was coming?Copy !req
447. Dad, you're thinking about this too
much. I just had a moment. All right?Copy !req
448. - Jordan, that's not 100% true.
- Jon.Copy !req
449. - What?
- Jordan, he needs to know.Copy !req
450. Look, the first time that he had
one of these episodes or whatever,Copy !req
451. - it stopped. It seemed fine.
- The first time?Copy !req
452. I had a migraine at school.
It wasn't a big deal.Copy !req
453. And you didn't tell me.Copy !req
454. I didn't tell you
'cause I knew you'd overreact.Copy !req
455. I knew you'd stop me
from playing the game.Copy !req
456. Yeah, and I would have been right.Copy !req
457. So I'm just supposed to be punished
for something that isn't my fault?Copy !req
458. This was my shot, Dad.Copy !req
459. This was my chance to show the d-bags
at Metropolis who I am.Copy !req
460. You remember how they treated me, right?Copy !req
461. Jordan, I know. I know.
And I get it. Okay?Copy !req
462. I know what it's like to be picked on.Copy !req
463. Yeah, but you get to grow up
and you get to be Superman.Copy !req
464. Who am I?Copy !req
465. I'm a weird kid with headaches.Copy !req
466. I just wanted to be good at something.
That was all.Copy !req
467. That's not what your powers
are for, Jordan.Copy !req
468. I'm not you, okay?Copy !req
469. Hey, Lana. Sorry, can I call you back?Copy !req
470. Clark, real quick.
Did Sarah come to the game?Copy !req
471. Uh...Copy !req
472. No, I didn't see her.
Why? Is everything okay?Copy !req
473. She was supposed to be here with Sophie,
and she's not.Copy !req
474. I knew she'd cancel plans about coming
to the game. I just thought...Copy !req
475. - Is that that Harris kid?
- Oh, my God. Yeah, it is.Copy !req
476. Clark, we gotta go.Copy !req
477. What was that?Copy !req
478. - Stay here.
- Everything okay?Copy !req
479. Stay here.Copy !req
480. - You sure about this?
- No point playing it cautious now.Copy !req
481. - And you know what to look for?
- Got my hands on some schematics.Copy !req
482. What we want is just up ahead.Copy !req
483. And how, may I ask,
did you manage to just take a peekCopy !req
484. at Edge EnerCorp's top-secret
schematics?Copy !req
485. A friend of mine helped out
with some surgically precise hacking.Copy !req
486. Well, points to you and your friend.Copy !req
487. - And the grand prize is...
- It should be right here.Copy !req
488. You came prepared.Copy !req
489. Tag, what the hell? Where are we?Copy !req
490. It's okay.Copy !req
491. - We're in Metropolis.
- How are we in Metropolis?Copy !req
492. That's the thing.Copy !req
493. Sarah, I can move pretty fast now.Copy !req
494. So a high-tech gadget guyCopy !req
495. works for Luther Corp,
the top tech company in the world,Copy !req
496. only to quit
and pursue a career in journalism.Copy !req
497. Did I get that right?Copy !req
498. Feels like I should be
focusing my story on you.Copy !req
499. No, the, uh, story...Copy !req
500. is on what's in these walls.Copy !req
501. - What is that?
- X-K.Copy !req
502. - Otherwise known as X-Kryptonite.
- "X-Kryptonite"?Copy !req
503. Rarest form of Kryptonite.Copy !req
504. And if my hunch is right,Copy !req
505. these mines have
the largest supply of it anywhere.Copy !req
506. There's your story, Miss Lane.Copy !req
507. Too bad no one's gonna read it.Copy !req
508. Still scanning Metropolis, General.Copy !req
509. Find this kid now.Copy !req
510. Nothing about Dad on the news.Copy !req
511. Can't find anything
on the Internet, either.Copy !req
512. Jordan, you're not, like,
mad at me or something, are you?Copy !req
513. No.Copy !req
514. I'm just a little tired
of being told what to do, that's all.Copy !req
515. Yeah.Copy !req
516. It's the boys.Copy !req
517. What's good, boys?Copy !req
518. - What's good?
- How you doing?Copy !req
519. - How you feeling, rock star? Better?
- I'm all right. Yeah.Copy !req
520. - All right. Good. Let's go.
- Yeah.Copy !req
521. - Going where?
- To pay some millennialCopy !req
522. to get us a few sixers
so we can celebrate properly.Copy !req
523. That'd be tight, guys,Copy !req
524. but honestly, my pop said
we gotta stay here, so...Copy !req
525. He did.Copy !req
526. - All right.
- It's not like we're going clubbing.Copy !req
527. Liquor store's just up the street.Copy !req
528. You know what? We won a big game.
Come on, let's go.Copy !req
529. Come on.Copy !req
530. Yeah!Copy !req
531. - You coming?
- Yeah.Copy !req
532. All right.Copy !req
533. What are you doing?Copy !req
534. Get ready to run.Copy !req
535. Come on.Copy !req
536. Come on, let's go.Copy !req
537. Narrowing in on his power signature.Copy !req
538. Are you ready to move?Copy !req
539. Sorry, I bumped your head.
It's cause of my powers...Copy !req
540. Tag, slow down.Copy !req
541. I think it was caught on camera.Copy !req
542. All I want is just to show you.Copy !req
543. You see that flare?Copy !req
544. It's coming from Jordan.
I think he did... something.Copy !req
545. That's what made me this way.Copy !req
546. It's crazy, Sarah, but it's true.Copy !req
547. I had to tell someone I trust, you know?Copy !req
548. Plus, you know him. And I wondered...Copy !req
549. if he told you something.
Maybe you could help me.Copy !req
550. I don't know anything.Copy !req
551. Don't run.Copy !req
552. I'm here to help you.Copy !req
553. You got it.Copy !req
554. - Hands like feet.
- There they are.Copy !req
555. The Crows.Copy !req
556. You look pretty good, Jojo,Copy !req
557. for a guy who was dragged off the field.Copy !req
558. Yo, Cutter.Copy !req
559. Seriously, man? Come on. Step off.Copy !req
560. Are you sore about Eliza, Kent?Copy !req
561. Look, I know we used to be friends,
but I guess that's over now.Copy !req
562. So, what, you came here
to talk about how it feels to lose?Copy !req
563. Wow.Copy !req
564. Look who found his voice.Copy !req
565. Dorky kid since forever,
cried if he was breathed on.Copy !req
566. What, now you're like the best guy
on the football team?Copy !req
567. You juicing or something there, Jojo?Copy !req
568. Is that what's going on?
You juicing, Jojo, huh?Copy !req
569. Suspect is dangerous.Copy !req
570. Use whatever means necessary.Copy !req
571. - I need you both to come with me.
- No. No way.Copy !req
572. - You took me to that place.
- I was only trying to help.Copy !req
573. - They didn't help me.
- Tag, I give you my word.Copy !req
574. I will make sure that you are safeCopy !req
575. and that you get
the answers that you want,Copy !req
576. but right now we need to leave.Copy !req
577. The DOD is coming for you.Copy !req
578. I need you to trust me.Copy !req
579. Bishop Six, stand down.Copy !req
580. Oh, look at those eyes, man.
Tell me the truth, Jojo.Copy !req
581. - Cutter! Cutter!
- Let him shut me up. Right here, baby.Copy !req
582. Jordan, Jordan, breathe. Relax. Relax.Copy !req
583. - Down on the ground, now.
- No, don't!Copy !req
584. - Tag, stop.
- Engage!Copy !req
585. You can't do this. You can't do this.Copy !req
586. - Stop!
- Take him out!Copy !req
587. Stand down.Copy !req
588. No. No, he didn't try to hurt me.Copy !req
589. Those won't be necessary.Copy !req
590. You're not gonna be alone anymore. Okay?Copy !req
591. I promise.Copy !req
592. I don't know
what you're upset about.Copy !req
593. The girl's safe and on her way home,
subject's back in custody.Copy !req
594. Let's take this as a win.Copy !req
595. His name is Tag.Copy !req
596. I wish I had your trust in people.
I really do.Copy !req
597. - So do I.
- You put me in a bad position tonight.Copy !req
598. You know, I thought about all the ways
you might try to stop that boy.Copy !req
599. It never occurred to me
you would actually use live rounds,Copy !req
600. let alone ones fitted with Kryptonite.Copy !req
601. My job is to protect the American people
by any means necessary.Copy !req
602. And now I know.Copy !req
603. - Dad, Jon's hurt.
- Superman.Copy !req
604. Hey.Copy !req
605. Hey! Are we going to talk about
what happened back there?Copy !req
606. What's to talk about?
You saw what I saw. That's your story.Copy !req
607. You are armed to the teeth
with the kind of weaponsCopy !req
608. that would put you high on the FBI's
most wanted list.Copy !req
609. And the security badge?Copy !req
610. I sent a photo to a friend of mineCopy !req
611. and she said it's one of the best
forgeries she has ever seen.Copy !req
612. So why don't you tell me
who you really areCopy !req
613. and why you are in Smallville.Copy !req
614. 'Cause I don't buy
that you came to write a story.Copy !req
615. I can't tell you why I'm really here.Copy !req
616. But I can promise you, like you,Copy !req
617. I am trying to prevent
something bad from happening.Copy !req
618. Hey, babe, can I call...Copy !req
619. How bad?Copy !req
620. I'm on my way.Copy !req
621. - You okay?
- To be continued.Copy !req
622. Doctor said the cast comes off
in six to eight weeks.Copy !req
623. It could have been worse.Copy !req
624. Yeah, and he also said that
"maybe" I get full range of motion back.Copy !req
625. So...Copy !req
626. - Jon, I'm so sorry...
- Just shut up, please.Copy !req
627. - You know I never meant...
- Okay, but you did.Copy !req
628. You did, Jordan.Copy !req
629. You got emotional and then I try to
step in the middle of it like an idiotCopy !req
630. and now I have a broke-ass armCopy !req
631. and I'm probably never gonna
play quarterback again.Copy !req
632. So, thanks.Copy !req
633. Thanks a lot.Copy !req
634. I'm going to bed.Copy !req
635. You guys know that I would never mean
to actually hurt him.Copy !req
636. Jordan, that has nothing to do with it.Copy !req
637. He's upset, and he has a right to be.Copy !req
638. I told you, your powers
come with responsibility,Copy !req
639. and I need you to get that.Copy !req
640. Honey, we know it was an accident.
We know you're sorry.Copy !req
641. Jon knows, too. He just needs a second.Copy !req
642. But your dad is right.
Things are different now.Copy !req
643. Yeah, I know. I know they're different.Copy !req
644. Do you?Copy !req
645. Because you made a big point
at the hotelCopy !req
646. of saying you're different from me.Copy !req
647. But you're not.Copy !req
648. That anger you felt that
made you want toCopy !req
649. use your powers the way you did tonight,Copy !req
650. I have those feelings, too.Copy !req
651. - You do?
- Yes, but I keep them in check.Copy !req
652. Otherwise, I risk losing the trust of
the very people I've sworn to protect.Copy !req
653. When I first showed up in Metropolis
as Superman, there was a lot of talkCopy !req
654. about what the world should do
with someone who had powers like mine.Copy !req
655. And it took me a minute to realize
that other peopleCopy !req
656. were more afraid of what I could do
than I was.Copy !req
657. So what I had to do more than anything
was earn their trust,Copy !req
658. prove to them that no matter what,Copy !req
659. I would never use my powers
to hurt them.Copy !req
660. Twenty years later,
and every time I use my powers,Copy !req
661. that trust is tested.Copy !req
662. Every time.Copy !req
663. Just today, in fact.Copy !req
664. Look, the thing about trust, Jordan,
once you break it,Copy !req
665. it takes a lot longer to heal
than a wrist.Copy !req
666. It's late.Copy !req
667. Go get some sleep.
We can talk about this more tomorrow.Copy !req
668. He's just confused. He's so young.
He's not ready for this.Copy !req
669. I know. Neither was I, but...Copy !req
670. Probably not the best time to tell you
I almost got killed tonight.Copy !req
671. What?Copy !req
672. I got into the mine with the help
of this supposed journalist,Copy !req
673. Marcus Bridgewater, and he led me
to something called X-Kryptonite.Copy !req
674. - Have you ever heard of that?
- No, no, wait. Back up.Copy !req
675. - What do you mean you almost got killed?
- Leslie Larr came after us.Copy !req
676. Turns out she has powers, too.Copy !req
677. She tried to heat-vision us,Copy !req
678. and then Marcus zapped her
with this, like, high-tech ray gun.Copy !req
679. Why?
Why does a journalist have a ray gun?Copy !req
680. - That makes no sense.
- He's no journalist.Copy !req
681. We need to figure out who he is
and what he has on Morgan Edge.Copy !req
682. Sarah, are you okay?Copy !req
683. It's just crazy.Copy !req
684. I've known Tag my entire life
and now he has powers or whatever.Copy !req
685. I was really scared,
but I knew that he would never hurt me.Copy !req
686. He was just really confused,
and he was really focused on you.Copy !req
687. He showed me this video
from the night of the bonfire.Copy !req
688. He had this whole theory
that whatever happened,Copy !req
689. whatever gave him his powers
had something to do with you.Copy !req
690. I don't know why he said that.Copy !req
691. You know, even if there was something,Copy !req
692. you could tell me, right?Copy !req
693. Yeah, of course.Copy !req
694. Okay.Copy !req
695. How are you doing?Copy !req
696. I just keep thinking about
what could have happened.Copy !req
697. Sarah told me
that Tag has these special abilities.Copy !req
698. He's not sure how he got them,
but clearlyCopy !req
699. this has something to do
with those mines.Copy !req
700. Lois, what aren't you telling me?Copy !req
701. I haven't put it all together yet.Copy !req
702. But, yes, it does involve Tag
and two other people,Copy !req
703. both of whom have been linked to Edge.Copy !req
704. He's up to something.Copy !req
705. I just don't know exactly what.Copy !req
706. I could help you figure out if, in fact,Copy !req
707. he was up to something
dangerous or illegal.Copy !req
708. Are you sure you want to do that?
He is very dangerous.Copy !req
709. Look, if it's going to keep him
from hurting other people,Copy !req
710. - yes, I'm in.
- And Kyle's okay with this?Copy !req
711. No. No, it's just best
to keep this between us for now.Copy !req
712. Okay.Copy !req
713. I happen to know that we have a ton
of Rocky Road in the freezerCopy !req
714. and I can't handle it all by myself.Copy !req
715. You think I'm six?Copy !req
716. No.Copy !req
717. But I will say that I have
as recently as this morningCopy !req
718. kind of wished that you were.Copy !req
719. I don't know how to fix this.
I don't know what to do.Copy !req
720. I hurt Jon... bad.Copy !req
721. I can still hear his bone snapping.Copy !req
722. He's my brother, and I did that to him.Copy !req
723. - It was an accident.
- And Tag?Copy !req
724. That was an accident, too, right?Copy !req
725. It's not your fault.Copy !req
726. Mom, I just had to look Sarah in the eyeCopy !req
727. and all she wanted was the truth
and I just had to lie to her.Copy !req
728. To the one friend I even have.Copy !req
729. You know, I think...Copy !req
730. I think some stupid part of me
actually thought thatCopy !req
731. the powers would bring me
closer to people,Copy !req
732. but all they really do
is bring me farther away.Copy !req
733. Come here, kid.Copy !req
734. - I just want it to end.
- I know.Copy !req
735. Jordan.Copy !req
736. Clark! Clark!Copy !req
737. Jordan. Jordan.Copy !req
738. I have to get him to the Fortress.Copy !req
