1. "In the decade of the 1930s,
even the great city of Metropolis...
Copy !req
2. was not spared the ravages
of the worldwide depression.
Copy !req
3. In the times of fear and confusion,
the job of informing the public...
Copy !req
4. was the responsibility
of the Daily Planet...
Copy !req
5. a great metropolitan newspaper,
whose reputation for clarity and truth...
Copy !req
6. had become a symbol of hope
for the city of Metropolis."
Copy !req
7. This is no fantasy...
Copy !req
8. no careless product
of wild imagination.
Copy !req
9. No, my good friends.
Copy !req
10. These indictments
I have brought you today...
Copy !req
11. the specific charges listed herein
against the individuals...
Copy !req
12. their acts of treason,
their ultimate aim of sedition...
Copy !req
13. these are matters of undeniable fact.
Copy !req
14. I ask you now to pronounce judgment...
Copy !req
15. on those accused.
Copy !req
16. On this...
Copy !req
17. This mindless aberration,
whose only means of expression...
Copy !req
18. are wanton violence and destruction.
Copy !req
19. On the woman, Ursa...
Copy !req
20. whose perversions
and unreasoning hatred of all mankind...
Copy !req
21. have threatened even the children
of the planet Krypton.
Copy !req
22. Finally, General Zod.
Copy !req
23. Once trusted by this council...
Copy !req
24. charged with maintaining the defense
of the planet Krypton itself.
Copy !req
25. Chief architect
of this intended revolution...
Copy !req
26. and author of this insidious plot
to establish a new order amongst us...
Copy !req
27. with himself as absolute ruler.
Copy !req
28. You have heard the evidence.
Copy !req
29. The decision of the council
will now be heard.
Copy !req
30. Guilty.
Copy !req
31. Guilty.
Copy !req
32. Guilty.
Copy !req
33. The vote must be unanimous, Jor-El.
Copy !req
34. It has therefore
now become your decision.
Copy !req
35. You alone will condemn us if you wish...
Copy !req
36. and you alone
will be held responsible by me.
Copy !req
37. Join us.
Copy !req
38. You have been known to disagree
with the council before.
Copy !req
39. Yours could become an important voice
in the new order...
Copy !req
40. second only to my own.
Copy !req
41. I offer you a chance
for greatness, Jor-El!
Copy !req
42. Take it! Join us!
Copy !req
43. You will bow down before me, Jor-El.
Copy !req
44. I swear it.
Copy !req
45. No matter that it takes an eternity,
you will bow down before me!
Copy !req
46. Both you...
Copy !req
47. and then one day...
Copy !req
48. your heirs!
Copy !req
49. No!
Copy !req
50. - Let us out of here!
- Help me!
Copy !req
51. Forgive me!
I shall return!
Copy !req
52. Forgive me!
Copy !req
53. I shall return!
Copy !req
54. An unpleasant duty
has been masterly performed, Jor-El.
Copy !req
55. They have received the fate
they deserved.
Copy !req
56. Isolation in the Phantom Zone...
Copy !req
57. an eternal living death.
Copy !req
58. A chance for life, nonetheless.
Copy !req
59. As opposed to us.
Copy !req
60. It's suicide. No, it's worse.
Copy !req
61. It's genocide.
Copy !req
62. Be warned, Jor-El.
Copy !req
63. The council has already evaluated
this outlandish theory of yours.
Copy !req
64. My friends, you know me to be
neither rash nor impulsive.
Copy !req
65. I am not given to wild,
unsupported statements.
Copy !req
66. And I tell you that we must
evacuate this planet immediately.
Copy !req
67. Jor-El, you are one
of Krypton's greatest scientists.
Copy !req
68. Yes, but so is Vond-Ah.
Copy !req
69. It isn't that they question your data.
The facts are undeniable.
Copy !req
70. It's your conclusions
we find unsupportable.
Copy !req
71. This planet will explode
within 30 days, if not sooner.
Copy !req
72. I tell you,
Krypton is simply shifting its orbit.
Copy !req
73. Jor-El, be reasonable.
Copy !req
74. My friend...
Copy !req
75. I have never been otherwise.
Copy !req
76. This madness is yours.
Copy !req
77. This discussion is terminated.
Copy !req
78. The decision of the council is final.
Copy !req
79. Any attempt by you to create a climate
of fear and panic among the populace...
Copy !req
80. must be deemed by us
an act of insurrection.
Copy !req
81. You would accuse me of insurrection?
Copy !req
82. Has it now become a crime
to cherish life?
Copy !req
83. You would be banished
to endless imprisonment...
Copy !req
84. in the Phantom Zone...
Copy !req
85. the eternal void...
Copy !req
86. which you yourself discovered.
Copy !req
87. Will you abide by the council's decision?
Copy !req
88. I will remain silent.
Copy !req
89. Neither l, nor my wife
will leave Krypton.
Copy !req
90. Have you finished?
Copy !req
91. Nearly.
Copy !req
92. It's the only answer, Lara.
Copy !req
93. If he remains here with us
he will die as surely as we will.
Copy !req
94. But why Earth, Jor-El?
Copy !req
95. They're primitives
thousands of years behind us.
Copy !req
96. He will need that advantage to survive.
Copy !req
97. Their atmosphere will sustain him.
Copy !req
98. He will defy their gravity.
Copy !req
99. He will look like one of them.
Copy !req
100. He won't be one of them.
Copy !req
101. No.
Copy !req
102. His dense molecular structure
will make him strong.
Copy !req
103. He'll be odd. Different.
Copy !req
104. He'll be fast. Virtually invulnerable.
Copy !req
105. Isolated, alone.
Copy !req
106. He will not be alone.
Copy !req
107. He will never be alone.
Copy !req
108. The energy input to Jor-El's quarters...
Copy !req
109. is now in excess.
Copy !req
110. Our data indicates the loss is due
to a misuse of energy.
Copy !req
111. Investigate.
Copy !req
112. And if the investigation
proves correct?
Copy !req
113. He knew the penalty he faced.
Copy !req
114. Even as a member of this council.
Copy !req
115. The law will be upheld.
Copy !req
116. You will travel far, my little Kal-El.
Copy !req
117. But we will never leave you...
Copy !req
118. even in the face of our deaths.
Copy !req
119. The richness of our lives,
it will be yours.
Copy !req
120. All that I have, all that I've learned,
everything I feel...
Copy !req
121. all this and more...
Copy !req
122. I bequeath you, my son.
Copy !req
123. You will carry me inside you
all the days of your life.
Copy !req
124. You will make my strength your own,
see my life through your eyes...
Copy !req
125. as your life will be seen through mine.
Copy !req
126. The son becomes the father,
and the father the son.
Copy !req
127. This is all l...
Copy !req
128. All I can send you...
Copy !req
129. Kal-El.
Copy !req
130. Stop. Stop, stop!
Copy !req
131. —which Einstein called...
Copy !req
132. his theory of relativity.
Copy !req
133. Embedded in the crystals before you is
the total accumulation of all literature...
Copy !req
134. and scientific fact
from dozens of other worlds...
Copy !req
135. spanning the 28 known galaxies.
Copy !req
136. Early Chinese writings point out
the complex relationships...
Copy !req
137. By carrying this complex equation
to its ultimate power, my son...
Copy !req
138. Chief among these powers
will be your sight...
Copy !req
139. your strength, your hearing...
Copy !req
140. your ability to propel yourself
at almost limitless speed.
Copy !req
141. The early history of our universe was
a bloody mosaic of interplanetary war.
Copy !req
142. Each of the six galaxies
which you will pass through...
Copy !req
143. contain their own individual law,
space and time.
Copy !req
144. It is forbidden for you to interfere
with human history.
Copy !req
145. What was that?
Copy !req
146. Now, wouldn't that beat all get-out?
Copy !req
147. Will you— You...
Copy !req
148. Huh?
Copy !req
149. Pa...
Copy !req
150. Oh, my.
Copy !req
151. All these years, as happy as we've been...
Copy !req
152. how I've prayed the good Lord...
Copy !req
153. see fit to give us a child.
Copy !req
154. Honey, will you hand me
that rag up there.
Copy !req
155. You take things easy, Jonathan.
Copy !req
156. Remember what Doc Frye said
about that heart of yours.
Copy !req
157. Now the first thing we've got to do
when we get home is find out...
Copy !req
158. who that boy's proper family is.
Copy !req
159. He hasn't got any.
Not around here, anyway.
Copy !req
160. Martha, are you thinking
what I think you're thinking?
Copy !req
161. We could say he's the child
of my cousin in North Dakota.
Copy !req
162. And just now orphaned.
Copy !req
163. - Oh, Martha.
- Jonathan, he's only a baby.
Copy !req
164. Martha, now, you saw how we found him.
Copy !req
165. Martha Clark Kent, are you listening
to what I'm saying?
Copy !req
166. Jonathan!
Copy !req
167. Come on, gang.
Copy !req
168. Come on.
Copy !req
169. That was a great game.
Yeah, but next week we're...
Copy !req
170. All right.
Copy !req
171. Come on, gang, hustle. Let's go.
Copy !req
172. Stack your helmets neatly.
Copy !req
173. Remember about those uniforms.
Cleaned and washed by tomorrow...
Copy !req
174. and looking like a football team.
Copy !req
175. Clark, have the clothes
washed and ready...
Copy !req
176. - ... for tomorrow's game.
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
177. Got to beat Mount Vernon High!
Copy !req
178. Can you give me a lift?
Home early!
Copy !req
179. Lana? Don't bother with these, huh?
Copy !req
180. I'll take them in
with the other equipment.
Copy !req
181. - Thank you, Clark.
- Sure.
Copy !req
182. Listen, a whole bunch of us
are going up to Mary Ellen's...
Copy !req
183. play some records.
Copy !req
184. Would you like to come?
Copy !req
185. Sure. Sounds like it'd be a lot of fun.
Copy !req
186. Kent can't make it.
Still got a lot of work to do.
Copy !req
187. What are you talking about?
I just finished stacking all the—
Copy !req
188. - All that?
- Oh.
Copy !req
189. Oh, Brad.
Copy !req
190. Hey, come on, Lana.
Come on, Lana.
Copy !req
191. Come on, let's go.
Copy !req
192. - He's got to clean up.
- Bye, Clark.
Copy !req
193. - Yeah. Bye, Lana.
- Clean this up, Clark.
Copy !req
194. Let's go.
Bye, Clark.
Copy !req
195. We're off to Mary Ellen's.
See you, Clark.
Copy !req
196. All right.
Copy !req
197. Bye, Clark.
Bye, Clark.
Copy !req
198. Bye, Clark. See you tomorrow.
Bye-bye.
Copy !req
199. Woo-hoo!
Copy !req
200. Golly, I saw a boy out there
run as fast as the train!
Copy !req
201. Faster even!
Copy !req
202. Lois Lane, you have a writer's gift
for invention.
Copy !req
203. - I'll say that for you.
- But— But—
Copy !req
204. Lois, please read your book.
Copy !req
205. No one ever believes me.
Copy !req
206. Hey, look. There's Clark.
Copy !req
207. How come he's here?
Copy !req
208. Clark.
Copy !req
209. How'd you get here so fast?
Copy !req
210. - I ran.
Ran, huh?
Copy !req
211. Told you he's an oddball.
Let's get out of here.
Copy !req
212. Been showing off a bit,
haven't you, son?
Copy !req
213. Uh...
Copy !req
214. I didn't mean to show off, Pa.
Copy !req
215. It's just that, guys like that Brad,
I just want to tear them apart.
Copy !req
216. Yeah. I know.
Copy !req
217. - Yeah, I know I shouldn't.
- Yeah, I know...
Copy !req
218. you can do all these amazing things...
Copy !req
219. and sometimes you think
that you will just go bust...
Copy !req
220. unless you can tell people about it.
Copy !req
221. Yeah. I mean, every time
I get the football...
Copy !req
222. - ... I can make a touchdown. Every time.
- That's for sure.
Copy !req
223. I mean, is it showing off
if somebody's doing...
Copy !req
224. the things he's capable of doing?
Is a bird showing off when it flies?
Copy !req
225. No. No, now you listen to me.
Copy !req
226. When you first came to us,
we thought people...
Copy !req
227. would come take you away
because when they found out...
Copy !req
228. you know, the things you could do,
and that worried us a lot.
Copy !req
229. Then a man gets older,
and he thinks very differently...
Copy !req
230. and things get very clear.
Copy !req
231. And there's one thing I do know, son...
Copy !req
232. and that is you are here for a reason.
Copy !req
233. I don't know whose reason,
but whatever the reason...
Copy !req
234. maybe it's because...
Copy !req
235. I don't know, it's...
Copy !req
236. But I do know one thing:
Copy !req
237. It's not to score touchdowns.
Copy !req
238. Huh?
Copy !req
239. Thanks, Dad.
Copy !req
240. I'll race you to it. Dad.
Copy !req
241. - You will, huh?
- Come on. Come on, Pop, run.
Copy !req
242. Come on. Move. Move.
Yeah, go, go, go. Come on, run.
Copy !req
243. Hey, Baron! Hey, Baron. Hey, boy.
Copy !req
244. Oh, no.
Copy !req
245. Jonathan.
Copy !req
246. Jonathan!
Copy !req
247. Dad.
Copy !req
248. Jonathan!
Copy !req
249. No! Jonathan!
Copy !req
250. All those things I can do...
Copy !req
251. all those powers...
Copy !req
252. and I couldn't even save him.
Copy !req
253. Clark, get up.
Copy !req
254. Good morning, Smiley.
Copy !req
255. Clark, breakfast.
Copy !req
256. Are you gonna sleep all day?
Copy !req
257. Clark, come on. Get up.
Copy !req
258. I have to leave.
Copy !req
259. I knew this time would come.
Copy !req
260. We both knew it...
Copy !req
261. from the day we found you.
Copy !req
262. I talked to Ben Hubbard yesterday...
Copy !req
263. and he said that he'd be happy
to help out from now on.
Copy !req
264. Mother...
Copy !req
265. I know, son.
Copy !req
266. I know.
Copy !req
267. Do you know where you're headed?
Copy !req
268. North.
Copy !req
269. Remember us, son.
Copy !req
270. Always remember us.
Copy !req
271. My son...
Copy !req
272. you do not remember me.
Copy !req
273. I am Jor-El.
Copy !req
274. I'm your father.
Copy !req
275. By now, you will have reached
your 18th year...
Copy !req
276. as it is measured on Earth.
Copy !req
277. By that reckoning,
I will have been dead...
Copy !req
278. for many thousands of your years.
Copy !req
279. The knowledge that I have...
Copy !req
280. matters physical and historic...
Copy !req
281. I've given you fully on your voyage
to your new home.
Copy !req
282. These are important matters, to be sure,
but still matters of mere fact.
Copy !req
283. There are questions to be asked.
Copy !req
284. And it is time for you to do so.
Copy !req
285. Here in this...
Copy !req
286. This Fortress of Solitude...
Copy !req
287. we shall try to find
the answers together.
Copy !req
288. so, my son...
Copy !req
289. speak.
Copy !req
290. Who am l?
Copy !req
291. Your name is Kal-El.
Copy !req
292. You are the only survivor
of the planet Krypton.
Copy !req
293. Even though you've been raised
as a human being...
Copy !req
294. you are not one of them.
Copy !req
295. You have great powers...
Copy !req
296. only some of which
you have as yet discovered.
Copy !req
297. Come with me now, my son...
Copy !req
298. as we break through the bonds
of your earthly confinement.
Copy !req
299. Traveling through time and space
in the six known dimensions.
Copy !req
300. Your powers will far exceed
those of mortal men.
Copy !req
301. It is forbidden for you to interfere
with human history.
Copy !req
302. Rather, let your leadership
stir others to.
Copy !req
303. In this next year, we shall examine
the human heart.
Copy !req
304. It is more fragile than your own.
Copy !req
305. For the past two years—
Copy !req
306. As we pass through the flaming turmoil
which is the edge of your own galaxy...
Copy !req
307. we'll enter the realm
of the red Krypton sun...
Copy !req
308. source of your strength
and nourishment...
Copy !req
309. cause of our eventual destruction.
Copy !req
310. The planet Krypton, my son.
Copy !req
311. Your home, as it was.
Copy !req
312. This year, we shall examine
the various concepts of immortality...
Copy !req
313. and their basis in actual fact.
Copy !req
314. The total accumulation of all knowledge,
spanning the 28 known galaxies...
Copy !req
315. is embedded in the crystals
which I have sent along with you.
Copy !req
316. study them well, my son...
Copy !req
317. and learn from them.
We've reasoned out logical judgments.
Copy !req
318. By the time you return
to the confines of your galaxy...
Copy !req
319. 12 of your years will have passed.
Copy !req
320. For this reason, among others,
I have chosen Earth for you.
Copy !req
321. It is now time for you to rejoin
your new world...
Copy !req
322. and to serve its collective humanity.
Copy !req
323. Live as one of them, Kal-El...
Copy !req
324. to discover where your strength
and your power are needed.
Copy !req
325. Always hold in your heart
the pride of your special heritage.
Copy !req
326. They can be a great people, Kal-El.
They wish to be.
Copy !req
327. They only lack the light to show the way.
Copy !req
328. For this reason above all,
their capacity for good...
Copy !req
329. I have sent them you...
Copy !req
330. my only son.
Copy !req
331. Okay, this is it, mac, the Daily Planet.
Copy !req
332. Fresh fruit. Hey, lady,
how about a tomato?
Copy !req
333. Fresh fruit.
Hey, baby, how's it going?
Copy !req
334. Hey, fresh fruit and vegetables.
They're so fresh...
Copy !req
335. Fresh fruit and vegetables.
Get them while they're hot.
Copy !req
336. Look at these tomatoes.
Aren't they beautiful?
Copy !req
337. He did a great job.
You see his article this morning?
Copy !req
338. Smile.
Copy !req
339. - How many T's in "bloodletting"?
- Two.
Copy !req
340. - What are you writing, Miss Lane?
- An ode to spring.
Copy !req
341. - How do you spell "massacre"?
- Uh...
Copy !req
342. - M-A-S-S-A-C-R-E.
- A... C...
Copy !req
343. R-E. Thank you.
Copy !req
344. Golly, how come you get
all the great stories?
Copy !req
345. A good reporter doesn't
get great stories, Jimmy.
Copy !req
346. A good reporter makes them great.
Copy !req
347. Here's that story
on the East Side murder.
Copy !req
348. Way I see, it's a banner headline,
front page with maybe my picture—
Copy !req
349. There's only one P in "rapist."
Lois Lane, say hello to Clark Kent.
Copy !req
350. - Told you one P.
- Hello, Miss Lane. How are—?
Copy !req
351. Remember my expose
on the sex and drug orgies...
Copy !req
352. in the senior citizens home?
Copy !req
353. How you doing?
Jimmy Olsen, photographer.
Copy !req
354. - Oh, hi. Clark Kent. Nice to meet you.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
355. It's got everything. It's got sex,
violence, the ethnic angle—
Copy !req
356. So does a lady wrestler
with a foreign accent.
Copy !req
357. - Kent, can you open this?
- Oh, sure, Mr. White.
Copy !req
358. This could be a series of articles:
Copy !req
359. "Making Sense of Senseless Killings,"
by Lois Lane.
Copy !req
360. We get psychologists, sociologists—
Copy !req
361. Lois, you're pushing a bunch
of rinky-dink tabloid garbage.
Copy !req
362. - The Daily Planet has a tradition—
- Oh, I'm sorry.
Copy !req
363. Gosh, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to shake it up like that.
Copy !req
364. Oh, of course not, Lois.
Copy !req
365. Why would anyone want to make
a total stranger look like a fool?
Copy !req
366. - I'll take that.
- Oh, thank— I'm sorry, Mr. White.
Copy !req
367. Olsen, why am I paying you when
I should have you arrested for loitering?
Copy !req
368. - Go get Mr... A towel.
- Kent.
Copy !req
369. - Move, kid, move.
- Right, chief.
Copy !req
370. - Make mine black, no sugar.
- Right, chief.
Copy !req
371. - And don't call me sugar.
- "Blood is in Metropolis...
Copy !req
372. - Right, sugar.
- ... while the crocuses bloom."
Copy !req
373. Chief wants coffee, no sugar.
I'll take tea with lemon.
Copy !req
374. Lois, why don't you take Kent
out to meet everybody, huh?
Copy !req
375. Just introduce him around.
He's starting with the paper today.
Copy !req
376. I'm giving him the city beat.
Copy !req
377. Chief, that's my beat.
Copy !req
378. Lois, Clark Kent may seem like just
a mild-mannered reporter, but listen...
Copy !req
379. not only does he know how to treat
his editor in chief with respect...
Copy !req
380. not only does he have a snappy,
punchy prose style...
Copy !req
381. but he is, in my 40 years in this
business, the fastest typist I've seen.
Copy !req
382. - That's great.
- Excuse me. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
383. Here, you forgot my article.
Copy !req
384. Oh, excuse me, Mr. White?
Copy !req
385. I was wondering if perhaps
you could arrange for half my salary...
Copy !req
386. to be sent to this address
on a weekly basis.
Copy !req
387. - Your bookie, right?
- My what?
Copy !req
388. Don't tell me, he sends a check every week
to his sweet, gray-haired mother.
Copy !req
389. Actually, she's silver-haired.
Copy !req
390. Uh, I'll see what I can do.
Copy !req
391. Uh, thank you very much, Mr. White.
Copy !req
392. Excuse me.
Copy !req
393. Well...
Copy !req
394. Any more at home like you?
Copy !req
395. Not really, no.
Copy !req
396. I didn't think so.
Copy !req
397. - Well, get yourself a desk over here.
- Over here?
Copy !req
398. Yeah, right here.
There are some papers in a pile right there.
Copy !req
399. Sorry. Excuse me.
Copy !req
400. - Hi, Bill Breesen.
- Hi, Clark Kent.
Copy !req
401. - Very nice to meet you.
- Welcome aboard.
Copy !req
402. Thank you.
Copy !req
403. - Here's your towel, Mr. Clark.
- Um, Kent.
Copy !req
404. - What?
- Kent.
Copy !req
405. - Oh.
- Clark Kent.
Copy !req
406. Jimmy Olsen.
Copy !req
407. Yeah. It's fantastic.
So you—?
Copy !req
408. - I met this really great guy.
- Hey, fabulous.
Copy !req
409. Yeah, fabulous.
I met him at this dude ranch.
Copy !req
410. - Did you know I used to ride?
- Yeah, I've been since I was 7.
Copy !req
411. - Oh, I gotta mail these letters.
- Okay, bye. Good luck tonight.
Copy !req
412. - Oh, hi, Clark.
- Hi, Lois.
Copy !req
413. How'd you like your first day on the job?
Copy !req
414. Well, frankly, the hours
were sort of longer than I expected...
Copy !req
415. but on the whole, I mean, meeting you
and Jimmy Olsen and Mr. White...
Copy !req
416. gosh, I'd say it's been swell.
Copy !req
417. - Swell?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
418. You know, Clark, there are very few people
left in the world...
Copy !req
419. who feel comfortable saying that word.
Copy !req
420. - What word?
- "Swell."
Copy !req
421. Really? I always thought
it was kind of natural.
Copy !req
422. Ooh.
Copy !req
423. - I'm sorry.
- Clark.
Copy !req
424. It's all right.
Copy !req
425. - Sorry, Lois.
- Oh, hi, Rex.
Copy !req
426. - Oh, Lois.
- See anything good today?
Copy !req
427. - Not until you came along.
- Lois?
Copy !req
428. - Oh, Rex, this is—
- Clark Kent.
Copy !req
429. - Yeah, hi, see you around.
- Bye.
Copy !req
430. - Lois?
- Hey, where you going?
Copy !req
431. - Can I help you with your coat?
- Oh, yeah. Thanks.
Copy !req
432. - So you like Mr. White.
- I thought he was a nice guy.
Copy !req
433. - Jimmy Olsen was fantastic.
Hey, come here.
Copy !req
434. Come on, come on. Get in here.
Hurry up. Come on.
Copy !req
435. - We'd better get out of here.
- I think we'd better do what he says.
Copy !req
436. - Come on, come on. Get in here, quick.
- Don't do anything.
Copy !req
437. - That's it.
- We're coming.
Copy !req
438. - Come on.
- We're coming. Excuse me.
Copy !req
439. - Go on, back there.
- Here?
Copy !req
440. Please don't point that at me, sir.
Copy !req
441. - You could hurt somebody with that.
- Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
442. - Okay, okay, hold it there.
- Just a minute, mister.
Copy !req
443. I realize of course that times are tough
for some these days...
Copy !req
444. but this isn't the answer.
Copy !req
445. You can't solve society's problems
with a gun.
Copy !req
446. You know something, buddy? You're
right. I'm gonna turn over a new leaf.
Copy !req
447. Good for you, sir. That's the spirit.
He doesn't really want to hurt anybody.
Copy !req
448. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
449. - Right after I rip off this lady's purse.
- Of course.
Copy !req
450. Now come on, lady, hand it over.
Copy !req
451. Lois, I think maybe you better...
Copy !req
452. Lois, what are you doing?
Copy !req
453. Clark! Clark.
Copy !req
454. Clark, are you all right? Clark!
Copy !req
455. What happened?
Copy !req
456. Golly. I guess I must have fainted.
Copy !req
457. Fainted?
Copy !req
458. - You fainted?
- Sorry.
Copy !req
459. Swell.
Copy !req
460. Oh, really, Lois, supposing that man
had shot you?
Copy !req
461. Is it worth risking your life over $10, two
credit cards, a hairbrush, and lipstick?
Copy !req
462. - How'd you know that?
- Know what?
Copy !req
463. You just described the exact contents
of my purse.
Copy !req
464. Hm.
Copy !req
465. Um, wild guess.
Copy !req
466. Taxi!
Copy !req
467. - Hey.
- Hi, Otis.
Copy !req
468. - So, what's happening, partner?
- Look what we got.
Copy !req
469. - Let's take him.
- Wait a minute.
Copy !req
470. Maybe he'll lead us
to the big man himself.
Copy !req
471. - Lex Luthor?
- You got it, Armus.
Copy !req
472. We'll make captain by midnight.
Copy !req
473. Hey, what do you read?
Copy !req
474. XK 101 rocket to be used.
Copy !req
475. Hey, what do you read?
Copy !req
476. - Hey, Matt.
- Hey, hey, Otis.
Copy !req
477. Just getting the Daily Planet here.
Copy !req
478. Hey, what do you read?
Down, down.
Copy !req
479. Okay, okay.
Copy !req
480. Okay. All right. See, I'm paying him.
I got a pretzel too.
Copy !req
481. Thanks, Otis. Okay.
How many did he take, Shutzy?
Copy !req
482. This is Metropolis 46. We're on foot.
Over and out.
Copy !req
483. Let's go.
Copy !req
484. Your attention, please.
Copy !req
485. Your attention, please.
Copy !req
486. The Metropolis Flyer is now ready
for departure...
Copy !req
487. on the upper level, Track 6,
stopping at New Rochelle.
Copy !req
488. All right, he's going down to
the train platform. I'm going after him.
Copy !req
489. Okay, Harry. I'll call for backup.
Be careful, now.
Copy !req
490. - All right, Armus, all right.
All aboard, please.
Copy !req
491. Now boarding on the lower level—
Copy !req
492. Ten minutes, folks.
Come on, air-conditioned cars.
Copy !req
493. Mount Vernon, Poughkeepsie,
Glen Corners.
Copy !req
494. Aboard now. All aboard.
Metropolis Transportation.
Copy !req
495. Metropolis Transportation.
Buffalo, Syracuse.
Copy !req
496. Smoking cars are forward.
Move along now.
Copy !req
497. Put your luggage up the top.
Copy !req
498. Smoking cars forward.
All aboard. Boarding.
Copy !req
499. Armus, Armus, make it Track 22.
Copy !req
500. I seen him, and I'm right on him.
Lower level, Track 22.
Copy !req
501. So that's it.
Copy !req
502. It's amazing that brain can generate
enough power to keep those legs moving.
Copy !req
503. Harry.
Copy !req
504. Harry, where are you? Harry.
Copy !req
505. Oh, no.
Copy !req
506. Harry...
Copy !req
507. Sick.
Copy !req
508. - Sick. You're really sick.
- Sick, Miss Teschmacher?
Copy !req
509. Sick, when I'm mere days from executing
the crime of the century?
Copy !req
510. No, no, no.
Step away from that, please.
Copy !req
511. How do you choose to congratulate
the greatest criminal mind of our time?
Copy !req
512. Do you tell me that I'm brilliant?
Oh, no, no.
Copy !req
513. That would be too obvious, I grant you.
Copy !req
514. Charismatic. Fiendishly gifted.
Copy !req
515. Try "twisted."
Copy !req
516. Get away from there.
Get away, get away, get away!
Copy !req
517. Tell me something, Lex.
Copy !req
518. Why do so many people have to die
for the crime of the century?
Copy !req
519. Why? You ask why?
Copy !req
520. Why does the phone always ring
when you're in the bathtub?
Copy !req
521. Why is the most brilliantly
diabolical leader of our time...
Copy !req
522. surrounding himself
with total nincompoops?
Copy !req
523. I'm back, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
524. Yes, I was just talking about you.
Copy !req
525. You were followed again.
Copy !req
526. In spite of those catlike reflexes.
Copy !req
527. Mr. Luthor. Mr. Luthor, I'm sorry.
Copy !req
528. Otis.
Copy !req
529. Is that the newspaper
I asked you to get me?
Copy !req
530. Yeah.
Copy !req
531. Why am I not reading it?
Copy !req
532. Because I haven't given it to you yet?
Copy !req
533. - Right.
- Oh.
Copy !req
534. At last, it's official.
Copy !req
535. Thanks to the government,
we will pull off...
Copy !req
536. the greatest real-estate swindle
of all time.
Copy !req
537. Lex, what is this obsession
with real estate?
Copy !req
538. All the time, "land, land, land."
Copy !req
539. Miss Teschmacher, when I was
6 years old, my father said to me—
Copy !req
540. "Get out."
Copy !req
541. Before that. He said,
"Son, stocks may rise and fall.
Copy !req
542. Utilities and transportation systems
may collapse.
Copy !req
543. People are no damn good.
But they will always need land...
Copy !req
544. and they'll pay through the nose
to get it."
Copy !req
545. "Remember," my father said...
Copy !req
546. - Land.
- Right.
Copy !req
547. It's a pity that he didn't see
from such humble beginnings...
Copy !req
548. how I've created this empire.
Copy !req
549. An empire? This?
Copy !req
550. Miss Teschmacher,
how many girls do you know...
Copy !req
551. who have a Park Avenue address
like this one?
Copy !req
552. Park Avenue address?
Copy !req
553. Two hundred feet below.
Copy !req
554. Do you realize what people
are shelling out up there...
Copy !req
555. for a few miserable rooms
off a common elevator?
Copy !req
556. What more could anyone ask?
Copy !req
557. - Olsen!
Yeah?
Copy !req
558. Get this Loch Ness update
right into Composing.
Copy !req
559. Yeah? No, that's it, Roth.
Put it to bed. Right.
Copy !req
560. - What are you standing around here for?
- I'm not—
Copy !req
561. - I wasn't gonna say it.
- Go.
Copy !req
562. - Ah, the sex maniac profile.
- Right.
Copy !req
563. Look, 9-to-5 it's a Pulitzer Prize winner.
What do you bet?
Copy !req
564. There's no Z in "brassiere."
Copy !req
565. Hey, nice job
on that union scandal, Kent.
Copy !req
566. Well, gosh, thanks, Mr. White.
Copy !req
567. Uh...
Copy !req
568. Oh, hi, Clark. Good night.
Copy !req
569. - Here, let me carry that for you.
- Oh, thanks a lot.
Copy !req
570. Lois, have you got a minute?
Copy !req
571. Excuse me, please. Lois?
Copy !req
572. And these two go to the addresses
on the envelope, okay?
Copy !req
573. Lois, I was wondering if you
would like to have dinner with me?
Copy !req
574. - Gosh, Clark, I'm sorry. I'm booked.
- Oh.
Copy !req
575. Air Force One's landing at the airport
and this kid's there...
Copy !req
576. to make sure you-know-who answers
a few questions he'd rather duck.
Copy !req
577. - My goodness, don't you ever let up?
- What for?
Copy !req
578. I've seen how the other half lives.
My sister, for instance.
Copy !req
579. Three kids, two cats,
and one mortgage. Yech.
Copy !req
580. I would go bananas in a week.
Copy !req
581. Oh, can I take you to the airport?
Copy !req
582. Not unless you can fly.
Copy !req
583. - Clark? Ladies.
- Sorry.
Copy !req
584. - Change my clothes. Thank you. Bye.
- Hey, Lois, maybe we could—?
Copy !req
585. Um...
Copy !req
586. Lois?
Copy !req
587. - Would you be a pet and mail that?
- Oh, sure— Good night.
Copy !req
588. Oh. Going down, please. Going down.
Copy !req
589. - Going down?
- Going up, up, up.
Copy !req
590. Good night.
Copy !req
591. Daily Planet Copter 1, this is ground.
Copy !req
592. PlLOT
Planet 1, go ahead.
Copy !req
593. We have Miss Lane for a ride to
Metropolis Airport to meet Air Force One.
Copy !req
594. Roger, we're on our way
and have you in sight.
Copy !req
595. Have one aboard for transfer, over.
Copy !req
596. Roger, Planet 1. You're cleared.
Wind, 020 at 15, gusting.
Copy !req
597. - Altimeter two-niner-eight-niner.
- Roger, over and out.
Copy !req
598. A malfunction. Can't get liftoff.
Copy !req
599. You hooked the cable.
- What's happening?
Copy !req
600. - Ah!
- Set it down.
Copy !req
601. Oh, my God! We've lost stabilizer
rotor control, I can't hold it!
Copy !req
602. I can't hold it! I can't hold it!
Copy !req
603. Wake up!
Copy !req
604. Help!
Copy !req
605. Help! Help!
Copy !req
606. Come on, step back. Step back, folks.
Copy !req
607. - All right, let's get back a little.
- Move over across the street.
Copy !req
608. Bring the cameras over here. Okay.
Copy !req
609. Okay, you see the helicopter up there?
Copy !req
610. Help me!
Copy !req
611. All right, move back.
Let the ambulance through.
Copy !req
612. Help me!
Copy !req
613. Ah!
Copy !req
614. Okay. Come on, hold it. Get back.
Copy !req
615. Come on. Come on, get off the streets.
Come on, get back.
Copy !req
616. Move, let the firemen through.
Copy !req
617. Boys, come on, now. Make a line.
Copy !req
618. Move to the other side of the street.
Copy !req
619. Come on. Get along.
Copy !req
620. Get away from the building.
Copy !req
621. Hold these crowds back. Move. Move.
Copy !req
622. Help me!
Copy !req
623. - Say, Jim, whoa!
- Excuse me.
Copy !req
624. That's a bad outfit.
Copy !req
625. - Woo!
- Okay, Bresslaw, move these people out.
Copy !req
626. Oh, God, look up there.
Copy !req
627. What the hell's that?
Copy !req
628. - Oh!
- Easy, miss. I've got you.
Copy !req
629. You— You've got me?
Copy !req
630. Who's got you?
Copy !req
631. I can't believe it. I just cannot believe it.
He got her.
Copy !req
632. Gentlemen, this man needs help.
Copy !req
633. Well, I certainly hope this little incident
hasn't put you off flying, miss.
Copy !req
634. Statistically speaking, of course,
it's still the safest way to travel.
Copy !req
635. Right. Wait.
Copy !req
636. Who are you?
Copy !req
637. A friend.
Copy !req
638. Bye.
Copy !req
639. Hi there. Something wrong
with the elevator?
Copy !req
640. Ah!
Copy !req
641. Going down.
Copy !req
642. No.
Copy !req
643. Officer.
Copy !req
644. Good evening, Officer Mooney.
Copy !req
645. Well, they say confession
is good for the soul.
Copy !req
646. I'd listen to this man.
Copy !req
647. Take him away.
Copy !req
648. Come on. Let's get out of here.
Copy !req
649. Move your ass. Come on. Come on.
Copy !req
650. Okay, let's go. Let's go.
Copy !req
651. Drop your weapons.
Drop your weapons.
Copy !req
652. Come on, let's get out of here.
Copy !req
653. Okay, hold it. Hold it right there.
Copy !req
654. - Freeze, you turkeys.
Don't shoot.
Copy !req
655. Be cool. You got us.
Copy !req
656. Bad vibrations?
Copy !req
657. Sergeant, you don't believe me.
I swear, flying.
Copy !req
658. With a big red cape
and bright red boots, as well.
Copy !req
659. - Watch the desk.
- Quick as a wink, he was gone.
Copy !req
660. Flew up in the air again, he did,
like a big blue bird.
Copy !req
661. - A blue bird...
- You don't believe me.
Copy !req
662. - ... with bright red boots.
- Flying.
Copy !req
663. Take off, go back to Murphy's bar.
Copy !req
664. - Continue what you started.
- Don't believe me.
Copy !req
665. I'll be off in a few minutes
and I'll meet you there myself.
Copy !req
666. Mooney, the first bottle's on me.
Copy !req
667. Let me get my hat.
Copy !req
668. Hey, Frisky,
will you come down from there.
Copy !req
669. Hi. I'll get him.
Copy !req
670. Come on. It's all right.
Copy !req
671. Here you go, miss.
Copy !req
672. - Gee, thanks, mister.
- Well...
Copy !req
673. goodbye, Frisky. So long, now.
Copy !req
674. - Bye.
- Bye.
Copy !req
675. Mommy, Mommy,
Frisky was stuck in the tree.
Copy !req
676. This man swooped out of the sky
and gave him to me.
Copy !req
677. Haven't I told you to stop telling lies?
Copy !req
678. Metropolis Airport,
this is Air Force One.
Copy !req
679. - Could we have the weather report?
Roger, Air Force One.
Copy !req
680. Metropolis, currently
ceiling 500 overcast.
Copy !req
681. 700 broken,
visibility one half and showers.
Copy !req
682. Wind 240 at 25,
altimeter niner-niner-eight.
Copy !req
683. Roger.
Copy !req
684. Well, it doesn't look too good.
What do you think?
Copy !req
685. - What the hell was that?
- What happened?
Copy !req
686. We lost power in number one.
Copy !req
687. Lost power? We lost the whole engine.
Copy !req
688. - Shut down one.
- Pull one throttle closed.
Copy !req
689. - Bring up two and three.
- There's not enough pressure...
Copy !req
690. Mayday, mayday, Metropolis tower.
Air Force One.
Copy !req
691. We have lost port outboard engine
and part of wing.
Copy !req
692. Request emergency landing.
What's the position?
Copy !req
693. Ten miles southwest
of Metropolis Airport.
Copy !req
694. - Notify them the president's on board.
- Position, 10 miles...
Copy !req
695. that's 10 miles southwest
Metropolis Airport.
Copy !req
696. Heading 305. Height, 6000 feet.
Copy !req
697. What the hell happened?
We got our engine back?
Copy !req
698. What the hell's going on out there?
Copy !req
699. Fly. Don't look. Just fly.
Copy !req
700. We got something.
Copy !req
701. I ain't saying what it is. Just trust me.
Copy !req
702. You enjoyed it.
Copy !req
703. I don't know what to say, Father.
Copy !req
704. I'm afraid I just got carried away.
Copy !req
705. - I anticipated this, my son.
- You couldn't have.
Copy !req
706. You couldn't have imagined...
Copy !req
707. How good it felt?
Copy !req
708. You are revealed to the world.
Copy !req
709. Very well. So be it.
Copy !req
710. But you still must keep
your secret identity.
Copy !req
711. Why?
Copy !req
712. The reasons are two.
Copy !req
713. First, you cannot serve humanity
28 hours a day.
Copy !req
714. - 24.
- Or 24...
Copy !req
715. as it is in Earth time.
Copy !req
716. Your help would be called for endlessly.
Copy !req
717. Even for those tasks which human beings
could solve themselves.
Copy !req
718. It is their habit to abuse their resources
in such a way.
Copy !req
719. And secondly?
Copy !req
720. second, your enemies will discover...
Copy !req
721. their only way to hurt you:
Copy !req
722. By hurting the people you care for.
Copy !req
723. Thank you, Father.
Copy !req
724. Lastly...
Copy !req
725. do not punish yourself
for your feelings of vanity.
Copy !req
726. simply learn to control them.
Copy !req
727. It is an affliction common to all,
even on Krypton.
Copy !req
728. Our destruction could have been avoided
but for the vanity of some...
Copy !req
729. who consider us indestructible.
Copy !req
730. Were it not for vanity, why...
Copy !req
731. at this very moment...
Copy !req
732. I could embrace you in my arms...
Copy !req
733. my son.
Copy !req
734. Reports are coming in
of a miraculous saving...
Copy !req
735. - ... of Air Force One...
A burglar was apprehended...
Copy !req
736. - ... by a man in a blue suit and red cape.
- ... rescuing Miss Lois Lane...
Copy !req
737. writer on the Daily Planet,
with one hand, and a...
Copy !req
738. Yeah, that'll be the day, huh?
Copy !req
739. I said, that'll be the day
when a guy could fly, huh?
Copy !req
740. Oh, I don't know. You'd be surprised.
Copy !req
741. - Yeah.
- Some sort of fantastic hoax.
Copy !req
742. Your guess is as good as anybody's.
Copy !req
743. True or false, miracle or fraud?
Copy !req
744. - The answer is up to you. Man or myth?
Miss Teschmacher!
Copy !req
745. Turn it off.
Copy !req
746. Lex, what's the story on this guy?
Copy !req
747. Do you think he's the genuine article?
Copy !req
748. - if he is, he's not from this world.
- Why?
Copy !req
749. If any human being were gonna perpetrate
such a fantastic hoax...
Copy !req
750. it would have been me.
Copy !req
751. Otis! My robe!
Copy !req
752. Right away, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
753. It all fits somehow,
his coming here to Metropolis...
Copy !req
754. and at this particular time.
Copy !req
755. There's kind of a cruel justice about it.
Copy !req
756. To commit the crime of the century...
Copy !req
757. a man would just naturally want to face
the challenge of the century.
Copy !req
758. Listen, Mr. Luthor, maybe this guy that
flies is just sort of passing through.
Copy !req
759. - You know?
- Passing through?
Copy !req
760. Not on your life, Otis...
Copy !req
761. which I would gladly sacrifice,
by the way...
Copy !req
762. for the opportunity of destroying
everything that he represents.
Copy !req
763. And, Otis, by the way...
Copy !req
764. the next time, put my robe on
after I'm out of the pool.
Copy !req
765. Now look. The Post: "It flies."
Copy !req
766. The News: "Look, Ma, no wires."
Copy !req
767. The Times: "Blue bomb buzzes
Metropolis."
Copy !req
768. The Planet:
Copy !req
769. We have the story of the century here.
Copy !req
770. I want the name of
this whatchamacallit...
Copy !req
771. to go with the P/anet
like bacon and eggs...
Copy !req
772. franks and beans, death and taxes,
politics and corruption.
Copy !req
773. I don't think that
he would lend himself...
Copy !req
774. to any cheap promotion schemes,
Mr. White.
Copy !req
775. Exactly how would you know that, Kent?
Copy !req
776. Um...
Copy !req
777. Just a first impression.
Copy !req
778. Who's talking cheap?
I'll make him partner if I have to.
Copy !req
779. - Right?
- Right, chief.
Copy !req
780. I want the real story.
Copy !req
781. I want the inside dope on this guy.
Copy !req
782. Has he got a family? Where does he live?
What does the S stand for?
Copy !req
783. "Tonight at 8, your place.
Hopefully, a friend."
Copy !req
784. How does he fly?
Copy !req
785. A friend?
Copy !req
786. Tony, who is he? Mike, what's his name?
Copy !req
787. What's he got hidden under
that cape? Batteries?
Copy !req
788. Why did he show up last night?
Copy !req
789. Dick, where does he come from?
Copy !req
790. Does he have a girlfriend?
Copy !req
791. What's his favorite ball team, Kent?
Copy !req
792. Now, listen to me.
I tell you, boys and girls...
Copy !req
793. whichever one of you
gets it out of him...
Copy !req
794. is gonna wind up with
the single most important interview...
Copy !req
795. since God talked to Moses.
Copy !req
796. What are you standing around about for?
Copy !req
797. Move. Get on that story.
Copy !req
798. "Eight o'clock," he says, 8:00, 8:00.
Copy !req
799. Some friend.
Copy !req
800. The story of my life.
Cinderella bites the dust.
Copy !req
801. Good evening, Miss Lane.
Copy !req
802. Uh, hi.
Copy !req
803. Oh, I'm sorry,
did you have plans this evening?
Copy !req
804. Oh. Oh, this old thing— No.
Copy !req
805. - It's no trouble at all to come later.
- No. Don't move!
Copy !req
806. Um... Or...
Copy !req
807. Sure, you can move.
Copy !req
808. Just don't fly away, all right?
Copy !req
809. Sorry to drop in on you like this,
Miss Lane...
Copy !req
810. but there must be a lot
of questions about me...
Copy !req
811. - ... that people would like the answers to.
- Of course, yes.
Copy !req
812. You really shouldn't smoke,
you know, Miss Lane.
Copy !req
813. Don't tell me. Lung cancer, right?
Copy !req
814. Well, not yet, thank goodness.
Copy !req
815. Um, would you like a glass of wine?
Copy !req
816. No, thanks. I never drink when I fly.
Copy !req
817. Nice place.
Copy !req
818. Oh, thank you. Thank you.
Copy !req
819. Should we get started
with the interview?
Copy !req
820. Oh. Thank you.
Copy !req
821. Well, let's start with your vital statistics.
Copy !req
822. Are you married?
Copy !req
823. No. No, I'm not.
Copy !req
824. Do you have a girlfriend?
Copy !req
825. No, I don't, but if I did, Miss Lane,
you'd be the first to know about it.
Copy !req
826. Um, how old are you?
Copy !req
827. - Over 21.
- Oh, I get it.
Copy !req
828. You don't want anyone to
know how old— Okay.
Copy !req
829. How big are you? How tall are you?
Copy !req
830. - About 6'4".
- Six-foot-four.
Copy !req
831. - And how much do you weigh?
- Around 2, 225.
Copy !req
832. Two— 225?
Copy !req
833. Hm.
Copy !req
834. Well, I assume, then, that...
Copy !req
835. the rest of your bodily functions
are normal?
Copy !req
836. Sorry. I beg your pardon?
Copy !req
837. Well, putting it delicately...
Copy !req
838. do you...
Copy !req
839. eat?
Copy !req
840. Yes. Yes, I do. When I'm hungry.
Copy !req
841. You do. Of course you do.
Copy !req
842. Well. Well, then, is it true...
Copy !req
843. that you can see through anything?
Copy !req
844. Yes, I can. Well, pretty much.
Copy !req
845. And that you're totally
impervious to pain?
Copy !req
846. Well, so far.
Copy !req
847. What color underwear am I wearing?
Copy !req
848. Hm.
Copy !req
849. - I'm sorry. I embarrassed you, didn't l?
- No.
Copy !req
850. - I did.
- No, no. Not at all.
Copy !req
851. It's just that this planter must be
made of lead.
Copy !req
852. - Yes, it is. So?
- Oh, you see, I...
Copy !req
853. I sort of have a problem
seeing through lead.
Copy !req
854. Oh, that's interesting.
Copy !req
855. "Problems seeing through lead."
Copy !req
856. - Do you have a first name?
- What, like Ralph or something?
Copy !req
857. - No. I mean like—
- Pink.
Copy !req
858. - Huh?
- Pink.
Copy !req
859. I'm sorry, Miss Lane.
I didn't mean to embarrass you.
Copy !req
860. You didn't embarrass me.
Copy !req
861. Um... Uh...
Copy !req
862. What's your background?
Where do you hail from?
Copy !req
863. Well, that's kind of
hard to explain, actually.
Copy !req
864. You see, I'm from...
Well, pretty far away.
Copy !req
865. Another galaxy, as a matter of fact.
Copy !req
866. - I come from a planet called Krypton.
- Huh?
Copy !req
867. Krypton.
Copy !req
868. Oh, Cripton. With a C-R-l...? No.
Copy !req
869. No, actually, it's Krypton,
with a K-R-Y-P-T-O-N.
Copy !req
870. K-R-Y... Do you like pink?
Copy !req
871. I like pink very much, Lois.
Copy !req
872. - Why are you—?
- I'm sorry?
Copy !req
873. I mean, why are you here? There
must be a reason for you to be here.
Copy !req
874. Yes. I'm here to fight for truth
and justice and the American way.
Copy !req
875. You're gonna end up fighting
every elected official in this country.
Copy !req
876. I'm sure you don't really mean that, Lois.
Copy !req
877. - I don't believe this.
- Lois?
Copy !req
878. - Hm?
- I never lie.
Copy !req
879. Oh.
Copy !req
880. Um...
Copy !req
881. Uh— Oh.
Copy !req
882. - Just how fast do you fly, by the way?
- I don't know, really.
Copy !req
883. You know, I never actually bothered
to time myself.
Copy !req
884. - No?
- Say...
Copy !req
885. why don't we find out?
Copy !req
886. And how do you propose we do that?
Copy !req
887. Take a ride with me?
Copy !req
888. You mean I can fly?
Copy !req
889. Actually, I'd be handling the flying,
if that's okay.
Copy !req
890. - This is utterly fantastic.
- Wait a minute. Where are you going?
Copy !req
891. - Are you serious?
- Sure.
Copy !req
892. What's the matter, don't you want to go?
Copy !req
893. Okay. You don't need these.
Copy !req
894. I need a sweater.
It must be kind of cold.
Copy !req
895. No, you'll be warm enough.
Copy !req
896. - Ready?
- Clark...
Copy !req
897. said that you're just a figment
of somebody's imagination...
Copy !req
898. like Peter Pan.
Copy !req
899. Clark. Who's that, your boyfriend?
Copy !req
900. Clark? Oh, Clark. No, he's nothing.
Copy !req
901. - He's just a—
- Peter Pan, huh?
Copy !req
902. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
903. Peter Pan flew with children, Lois.
In a fairy tale.
Copy !req
904. Ah!
Copy !req
905. Oh!
Copy !req
906. Oh! Ah!
Copy !req
907. Can you read my mind?
Copy !req
908. Do you know what it is
that you do to me?
Copy !req
909. I don't know who you are.
Copy !req
910. Just a friend from another star.
Copy !req
911. Here I am, like a kid out of school...
Copy !req
912. holding hands with a god.
Copy !req
913. I'm a fool.
Copy !req
914. Will you look at me, quivering.
Copy !req
915. Like a little girl, shivering.
Copy !req
916. You can see right through me.
Copy !req
917. Can you read my mind?
Copy !req
918. Can you picture the things
I'm thinking of?
Copy !req
919. Wondering why you are...
Copy !req
920. all the wonderful things you are.
Copy !req
921. You can fly.
Copy !req
922. You belong in the sky.
Copy !req
923. You and I...
Copy !req
924. could belong to each other.
Copy !req
925. If you need a friend...
Copy !req
926. I'm the one to fly to.
Copy !req
927. If you need to be loved...
Copy !req
928. here I am.
Copy !req
929. Read my mind.
Copy !req
930. Oh, we forgot to time ourselves.
Copy !req
931. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
932. Oh, well, maybe next time.
Copy !req
933. Oh.
Copy !req
934. - You okay?
- Uh-huh.
Copy !req
935. Well, good night.
Copy !req
936. Oh, good night.
Copy !req
937. What a super man.
Copy !req
938. Superman.
Copy !req
939. Lois? Lois?
Copy !req
940. Anybody home? Hello? Lois?
Copy !req
941. - Hi. Can I come in?
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
942. Lois, for goodness' sake,
did you even hear me knocking?
Copy !req
943. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
944. Lois, we did have a date tonight,
remember?
Copy !req
945. Oh.
Copy !req
946. - Lois? You haven't been:
- Oh, no, no.
Copy !req
947. Well, I should certainly hope not.
Well, let's push off, shall we?
Copy !req
948. - I'd better get a coat.
- Okay.
Copy !req
949. It might be kind of cold out.
No, I mean...
Copy !req
950. I need a purse, and I have to
fix my hair, and...
Copy !req
951. put some blush on...
Copy !req
952. Lois...
Copy !req
953. there's something I have to tell you.
I'm really—
Copy !req
954. I mean, I was, at first,
really nervous about tonight.
Copy !req
955. But then I decided, well, darn it, I was
gonna show you the time of your life.
Copy !req
956. That's Clark, nice.
Copy !req
957. I was thinking maybe we could go
for a hamburger.
Copy !req
958. Now, then...
Copy !req
959. given the exact location of the galaxy
that he mentions...
Copy !req
960. and the proximity
to our own solar system...
Copy !req
961. it's amazing.
Copy !req
962. Amazing. Too good to be true.
Copy !req
963. It's too good to be true.
He's 6'4", has black hair...
Copy !req
964. blue eyes, doesn't drink, doesn't smoke,
and tells the truth.
Copy !req
965. Miss Teschmacher, some people read
War and Peace...
Copy !req
966. and come away thinking
it's a simple adventure story.
Copy !req
967. Others can read the ingredients
on a chewing gum wrapper...
Copy !req
968. and unlock the secrets of the universe.
Copy !req
969. Lex, what has chewing gum got to do
with the secrets of the universe?
Copy !req
970. Right. Right, Miss Teschmacher.
Copy !req
971. N, N, N...
Copy !req
972. M. You want M, Mr. Luthor?
Coming right up.
Copy !req
973. So there you go. M.
Copy !req
974. M, as in "moron," Otis?
No, no, no. It's N!
Copy !req
975. N, as in "Neanderthal,"
"nincompoop,"nitwit."
Copy !req
976. - And L, as in "ladder"!
- Ladder, Mr. Luthor. Coming right up.
Copy !req
977. I didn't see, because I...
Copy !req
978. I'm sorry, Mr. Luthor. L— Ooh!
Copy !req
979. In the interview,
he says that the planet Krypton...
Copy !req
980. exploded in 1948.
Copy !req
981. Ridiculous little freak took three years
in a rocket ship to get to Earth.
Copy !req
982. - Ergo...
- Ergo. Ergo, 1948, three years...
Copy !req
983. He's 6'4", you know that?
Copy !req
984. Do you know why the number 200
is so vitally descriptive...
Copy !req
985. to both you and me?
It's your weight and my lQ.
Copy !req
986. Now, think, people, think.
Copy !req
987. Deductive reasoning,
that's the name of the game.
Copy !req
988. Fragments from the planet Krypton
exploded and went into outer space.
Copy !req
989. It is reasonable to assume
that some of those particles of debris...
Copy !req
990. drifted to Earth.
Copy !req
991. Meteorites.
Copy !req
992. Voilà!
Copy !req
993. Voilà.
Copy !req
994. A meteorite found in Addis Ababa?
Copy !req
995. Uh, I know I'm gonna get rapped
in the mouth for this, but so what?
Copy !req
996. So what? You mean, to us
they are just meteorites.
Copy !req
997. Fair enough. But the level
of specific radioactivity is so high...
Copy !req
998. to anyone from the planet Krypton,
this substance is lethal.
Copy !req
999. Wait a minute, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
1000. You mean fire and bullets
can't hurt this guy, but this stuff here...
Copy !req
1001. Will kill him.
Copy !req
1002. - Oh.
- Oh.
Copy !req
1003. Yeah, wow...
Copy !req
1004. Doesn't it give you kind of...
Copy !req
1005. a shudder of electricity through you
to be in the same room with me?
Copy !req
1006. Not like the one you'll get
when you try to lay that rock on him.
Copy !req
1007. He can see you coming from miles
with those super peepers of his.
Copy !req
1008. Oh, Lord, you gave them eyes,
but they cannot see.
Copy !req
1009. Nor can Superman, through lead.
Copy !req
1010. He can't see through lead.
Copy !req
1011. And kryptonite will destroy him.
Copy !req
1012. Any questions, class?
Copy !req
1013. Wonder what they're wearing
in Addis Ababa.
Copy !req
1014. Looks like a burnoose.
Copy !req
1015. There's gold. It's 24 karat...
Copy !req
1016. - Are we going to Addis Ababa?
- ... not 18 karat gold.
Copy !req
1017. Mother Bird to missile convoy. Over.
Copy !req
1018. Missile convoy to Mother Bird, go ahead.
Copy !req
1019. Everything looks good.
see you at base. Over and out.
Copy !req
1020. Roger, Mother Bird. Over and out.
Copy !req
1021. - Man, look at this.
- Looks pretty bad.
Copy !req
1022. Think she's dead?
Better check her pulse.
Copy !req
1023. All right, get an ambulance down here.
Copy !req
1024. I don't wanna hold this convoy up
more than I have to.
Copy !req
1025. She's having trouble breathing, sir.
What do you think?
Copy !req
1026. Well, I suggest vigorous chest massage.
Copy !req
1027. If that doesn't work, mouth-to-mouth.
Copy !req
1028. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1029. Sergeant, I won't have one of my men
doing anything I wouldn't do myself.
Copy !req
1030. - Yeah, but, sir—
- Get an ambulance.
Copy !req
1031. All right, men. Gather around.
Copy !req
1032. About face!
Copy !req
1033. Hi.
Copy !req
1034. Somebody hurt?
Copy !req
1035. I did it. I did it, Mr. Luthor,
Miss Teschmacher.
Copy !req
1036. - I did it, just like you told me.
- All right, Otis. All right.
Copy !req
1037. All right, Otis. Listen,
it isn't that I don't trust you, but...
Copy !req
1038. I don't trust you, Otis. What'd you do?
Copy !req
1039. Well, l— I set the first directional vector
to 38...
Copy !req
1040. the second one to 67,
and the third one to 1 1 7.
Copy !req
1041. - What about the fourth one?
- What fourth one?
Copy !req
1042. Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute.
The third one to 1 1 7?
Copy !req
1043. Yes. See? I wrote it down, Mr. Luthor.
I wrote it—
Copy !req
1044. Otis. Otis!
Copy !req
1045. The third one was supposed to be 11,
and the fourth one, seven.
Copy !req
1046. Oh. Well, gee, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
1047. Oh, I see. I guess my arm
wasn't long enough, see?
Copy !req
1048. Otis, would you like to see a long arm?
Copy !req
1049. Otis, would you like to see
a very, very long arm?
Copy !req
1050. - Oh, no, Mr. Luthor.
- Otis. Otis!
Copy !req
1051. Ah!
Copy !req
1052. - All right, get it right, will you?
- Yes, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
1053. McDonald, I thought you told me
this road was blocked off.
Copy !req
1054. - Jablonski, you said it was blocked.
- I didn't ask him, I asked you.
Copy !req
1055. All right, follow me. Follow me, men.
Copy !req
1056. - Back that thing off the road.
- Back that thing up out of here.
Copy !req
1057. You fellas get back into that thing
and back it off the road.
Copy !req
1058. We got a convoy coming through here.
Copy !req
1059. Listen, you're gonna have to circle back.
I don't have time to argue.
Copy !req
1060. Heck of a day, isn't it?
Copy !req
1061. We took the wrong turn.
We were looking for Route 12.
Copy !req
1062. - Route 12? That's back there, isn't it?
- No, sir. It's up there.
Copy !req
1063. - Sergeant, we took the wrong route.
- I'm a lieutenant, a naval officer.
Copy !req
1064. Shut up!
Copy !req
1065. Route 12 is back that way.
Copy !req
1066. This man is a diabetic, you see.
Copy !req
1067. As you know, my newspaper,
the Daily Planet...
Copy !req
1068. is very interested in that dam,
but what I don't understand...
Copy !req
1069. is why you'd sell out
to a person you've never met.
Copy !req
1070. I mean, you don't even
know his name. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
1071. At the stupid-high price he offered...
Copy !req
1072. for this worthless piece of desert,
I hope it's Custer.
Copy !req
1073. Perfect. That's just what I need,
thank you.
Copy !req
1074. Reporting live
from the launch site, ground zero.
Copy !req
1075. Well, today marks an historic occasion.
Copy !req
1076. Two XK 101 rockets
will be launched simultaneously...
Copy !req
1077. one by the Army and by the Navy.
Copy !req
1078. Hi, everybody. Has anybody
seen Lois around today?
Copy !req
1079. No, I haven't, but the chief
wants to see you.
Copy !req
1080. You're blocking the set, Clark.
Copy !req
1081. Sorry, Gil. How's Judy today, okay?
Good? Great.
Copy !req
1082. - Excuse me, Mr. White?
- Come in, Kent.
Copy !req
1083. You wanted to see me?
Sir, have you seen Lois anywhere today?
Copy !req
1084. She's out west looking into
a land fraud deal.
Copy !req
1085. Sent young Olsen with her
on his first assignment.
Copy !req
1086. Some unidentified clown out there
is buying up thousands of acres...
Copy !req
1087. of worthless desert
at incredible prices.
Copy !req
1088. That doesn't seem to make sense.
Copy !req
1089. The world doesn't make sense.
You ought to know that by now.
Copy !req
1090. Look at this dispatch
from Addis Ababa.
Copy !req
1091. People break into a museum at night,
kill two people...
Copy !req
1092. and what do they take?
A worthless piece of meteorite.
Copy !req
1093. - How do you figure that?
- Well...
Copy !req
1094. frankly, I've never been able
to understand violence in any form.
Copy !req
1095. I know that about you, Kent. That's one
of the reasons I wanted to talk to you.
Copy !req
1096. I've been in this news game 40 years,
man and boy.
Copy !req
1097. And I got where I am
with guts, compassion, elbow grease...
Copy !req
1098. and something
you're sadly lacking in, son.
Copy !req
1099. - Um, humility?
- No, not humility.
Copy !req
1100. You got bags of humility.
Copy !req
1101. Aggression, confidence, that's the ticket.
Copy !req
1102. Take charge. Let people know
who you are.
Copy !req
1103. This is Lex Luthor.
Copy !req
1104. Only one thing alive with less than four legs
can hear this frequency, Superman: You.
Copy !req
1105. In approximately five minutes,
a poison gas pellet...
Copy !req
1106. containing propane-lithium
compound...
Copy !req
1107. will be released through
air ducts in the city...
Copy !req
1108. effectively annihilating
half the population of Metropolis.
Copy !req
1109. I was a reporter before
most of my friends were copy boys.
Copy !req
1110. I want you to do that.
Get Lois to introduce you to Superman.
Copy !req
1111. Find out who he is. What's he like?
Where'd he get that blue suit?
Copy !req
1112. Did he have it made?
Is it silk? Is it plastic?
Copy !req
1113. I know it all seems a bit much,
but how else was I going to meet you?
Copy !req
1114. I knew you'd never accept
an invitation to tea.
Copy !req
1115. But a disaster, with people in danger,
people who need help...
Copy !req
1116. well, I just knew you couldn't resist
the chance to sort of pitch in.
Copy !req
1117. Know what I mean?
Copy !req
1118. It's Superman.
Copy !req
1119. - Look.
- Oh, my God!
Copy !req
1120. There's a strong streak of good
in you, Superman...
Copy !req
1121. but then, nobody's perfect.
Copy !req
1122. Almost nobody.
Copy !req
1123. - What the—?
- Oh, Superman.
Copy !req
1124. - Gee.
- Stand back, please. Stand back.
Copy !req
1125. Nothing to get worried about.
Copy !req
1126. Well, don't just sit there. Get out.
Copy !req
1127. Look at that overgrown boy scout,
Miss Teschmacher.
Copy !req
1128. Tell me what you see.
Copy !req
1129. Cuteness, dimples.
Copy !req
1130. You like cuteness, huh?
Copy !req
1131. Dimples.
Copy !req
1132. I'll give you dimples.
Copy !req
1133. The pressure is still on you, Superman.
You know what they say:
Copy !req
1134. "If you can't stand the heat,
get out of the tunnel."
Copy !req
1135. This is your last chance, Superman.
Copy !req
1136. Why don't you do yourself
a flavor and freeze.
Copy !req
1137. Yeah.
Copy !req
1138. Hah.
Copy !req
1139. I think he's coming, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
1140. He's definitely coming, Mr. Luthor.
Copy !req
1141. It's open. Come in.
Copy !req
1142. My attorney will be in touch with you
about the damage to the door.
Copy !req
1143. Otis, take the gentleman's cape.
Copy !req
1144. - I don't think he wants me to.
- Luthor, where's the gas pellet?
Copy !req
1145. Somewhere...
Copy !req
1146. in the back of my mind, actually.
It's a little idea I was toying with.
Copy !req
1147. Is that how your warped brain gets its
kicks? Planning the death of innocents?
Copy !req
1148. No, by causing the death
of innocent people.
Copy !req
1149. Fire.
Copy !req
1150. Navy Bird, we have a launch.
Copy !req
1151. Navy missile, XK 101.
Copy !req
1152. Angle of attack is perfect.
Copy !req
1153. Climbing fast.
- Hydraulics, general function.
Copy !req
1154. Now, as you may or may not know,
I am, as they say...
Copy !req
1155. very heavy into real estate.
Copy !req
1156. To make money in that game, you have
to buy for a little and sell for a lot, right?
Copy !req
1157. - Right.
- Right.
Copy !req
1158. So the problem:
Copy !req
1159. How to make land more valuable
between the time you buy it...
Copy !req
1160. and the time you sell it.
Copy !req
1161. Now, this is California, the richest,
most populous state in the union.
Copy !req
1162. I don't need a geography lesson
from you, Luthor.
Copy !req
1163. Oh, yes, of course, you've been there.
I do forget, you get around, don't you?
Copy !req
1164. - Where was I?
- California.
Copy !req
1165. California, right. The San Andreas Fault.
Maybe you've heard of it?
Copy !req
1166. Yes. It's the joining of two land masses.
The fault line is unstable...
Copy !req
1167. which is why you get earthquakes
in California.
Copy !req
1168. Wonderful.
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Copy !req
1169. Everything west of this line
is the richest real estate in the world.
Copy !req
1170. San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco.
Copy !req
1171. Everything on this side is just hundreds
of miles of worthless desert land...
Copy !req
1172. which happens to be owned by...
Copy !req
1173. Lex Luthor, lncorporated.
Copy !req
1174. Now, call me foolish,
call me irresponsible...
Copy !req
1175. It occurs to me
that a 500-megaton bomb...
Copy !req
1176. planted at just the proper point,
would...
Copy !req
1177. Would destroy most of California.
Copy !req
1178. Millions of innocent people would die.
The West Coast as we know it would—
Copy !req
1179. Fall into the sea. Bye-bye, California.
Copy !req
1180. Hello, new West Coast. My West Coast.
Copy !req
1181. Costa del Lex, Luthorville,
Marina del Lex, Otisburg—
Copy !req
1182. - Otisburg?
- Miss Teschmacher...
Copy !req
1183. - ... she's got her own place, Mr.--
- Otisburg?
Copy !req
1184. - It's a little bitty place.
- Otisburg?
Copy !req
1185. Okay. I'll just wipe it off, that's all.
It's a little town.
Copy !req
1186. You're a dreamer, Lex Luthor.
A sick, twisted dreamer.
Copy !req
1187. Your plan couldn't possibly work.
Copy !req
1188. I'll admit there were a few problems.
Copy !req
1189. Adjusting the precise trajectory
of the missile...
Copy !req
1190. finding the optimum stress point
for the fault line itself.
Copy !req
1191. Which, by the way, is target zero, right...
Copy !req
1192. here.
Copy !req
1193. Ooh.
Copy !req
1194. - What's happening, lieutenant?
- Trajectory malfunction, sir.
Copy !req
1195. - Then abort.
Yes, sir.
Copy !req
1196. Function negative, sir.
Copy !req
1197. - Can't you knock them down?
- Absolutely impossible, sir.
Copy !req
1198. They have the new B-20 low-level
avoidance systems.
Copy !req
1199. Get me the Pentagon.
Copy !req
1200. Well, what do you think, Supe baby?
Interesting?
Copy !req
1201. - Your theory's quite impressive, Luthor.
- Would you go to the viewing room?
Copy !req
1202. But as for the rest,
it's nothing but a sick fantasy.
Copy !req
1203. Fantasy? No. No.
Copy !req
1204. It's history. It's happening, Superman.
Copy !req
1205. Miss Teschmacher!
Copy !req
1206. - Yes, Lex?
- Where's the rocket now?
Copy !req
1207. It's going like a bat over the Grand Canyon.
So is the other one.
Copy !req
1208. The other one? There's two of them?
Copy !req
1209. Yeah, Superman. Double jeopardy.
Copy !req
1210. Even you, with your great speed,
couldn't stop both of them.
Copy !req
1211. While I, on the other hand,
could stop them with my detonator.
Copy !req
1212. All right, Luthor. Where is it?
Where's the detonator?
Copy !req
1213. You diseased maniac.
Copy !req
1214. Did you really think you could hide it
from me by encasing it in lead?
Copy !req
1215. - I'll mold this box into your prison bars.
- Don't touch that.
Copy !req
1216. I told you. It's kryptonite, Superman.
A little souvenir from the old hometown.
Copy !req
1217. I've spared no expense
to make you feel right at home.
Copy !req
1218. You were great in your day, Superman.
But it just stands to reason...
Copy !req
1219. when it came time
to cash in your chips...
Copy !req
1220. this old, diseased maniac...
Copy !req
1221. would be your banker.
Copy !req
1222. Mind over muscle.
Copy !req
1223. You don't even care where
the other missile's headed, do you?
Copy !req
1224. Certainly, I do.
I know exactly where it's headed.
Copy !req
1225. Hackensack, New Jersey.
Copy !req
1226. I have to leave you now.
No hard feelings.
Copy !req
1227. We all have our little faults.
Mine's in California.
Copy !req
1228. Lex, my mother lives in Hackensack.
Copy !req
1229. Miss Teschmacher!
Copy !req
1230. Both birds uncontrolled.
Copy !req
1231. Impossible to reset.
Copy !req
1232. Otis.
Copy !req
1233. Miss Teschmacher.
Copy !req
1234. Please, you can't...
Copy !req
1235. You can't just stand there.
Copy !req
1236. Shh.
Copy !req
1237. You can't just stand there...
Copy !req
1238. and let innocent people,
millions of innocent people, die.
Copy !req
1239. Maybe.
Copy !req
1240. Please. Please help me to save them.
Copy !req
1241. If I help you, do you promise
to save my mother first?
Copy !req
1242. But Lois and Jimmy...
Copy !req
1243. Oh, but my mother comes first.
Copy !req
1244. If you promise me, I'll believe you,
because you always tell the truth.
Copy !req
1245. I promise. I promise.
Copy !req
1246. Why did you kiss me first?
Copy !req
1247. It— I didn't think you'd let me later.
Copy !req
1248. Thank you, Miss Teschmacher.
Copy !req
1249. Why is it I can't get it on
with the good guys?
Copy !req
1250. Stand aside now.
Copy !req
1251. I wouldn't stay here, either.
Copy !req
1252. Army bird still heading due east.
Copy !req
1253. Navy bird still heading due west.
- Losing radar contact.
Copy !req
1254. Next radar contact in three seconds.
Copy !req
1255. —intercept both birds.
Copy !req
1256. Army bird still headed east, sir.
Copy !req
1257. Army bird gaining altitude.
- Miss Teschmacher.
Copy !req
1258. Radar contact strong.
- We have straight climb.
Copy !req
1259. Miss Teschmacher!
Copy !req
1260. Radar report,
Navy bird, San Andreas area.
Copy !req
1261. Heading down.
Fifteen seconds to impact.
Copy !req
1262. Navy bird heading down,
15 seconds to impact.
Copy !req
1263. Fifteen seconds and counting.
Copy !req
1264. San Andreas.
- God!
Copy !req
1265. Mm.
Copy !req
1266. We interrupt the program
for a news flash.
Copy !req
1267. A military missile has exploded
in the Southern California desert.
Copy !req
1268. The force of the explosion has activated
the San Andreas Fault.
Copy !req
1269. California is suffering
a major earthquake.
Copy !req
1270. What's going on?
Copy !req
1271. It's a quake. Look!
Copy !req
1272. Look out!
Copy !req
1273. Get to the back of the bus!
Copy !req
1274. Okay, kids. It's all right now.
Copy !req
1275. Thank God, we're back on the bridge.
Copy !req
1276. - Hey, it's Superman.
It's Superman!
Copy !req
1277. Holy mackerel!
Copy !req
1278. Going off the tracks!
Copy !req
1279. Hang on!
Copy !req
1280. I can't hold her!
Copy !req
1281. All personnel, evacuate the dam.
Copy !req
1282. All personnel, evacuate the dam.
Copy !req
1283. Ah!
Copy !req
1284. Watch that cable!
Copy !req
1285. My eyes! I can't see!
Copy !req
1286. Someone try and pull the main!
Copy !req
1287. It's impossible, it's red-hot!
Copy !req
1288. - Gentlemen, is that man all right?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
1289. - Ah—!
- Hang on, Jim.
Copy !req
1290. The dam burst!
Copy !req
1291. Forget the car! Come on, come on!
Copy !req
1292. You're safe here, son.
Copy !req
1293. That's okay!
Miss Lane will be driving by soon.
Copy !req
1294. - Come on, George.
Make for the hill.
Copy !req
1295. There has been major quake damage...
Copy !req
1296. to Southern California.
Copy !req
1297. The San Andreas Fault
has miraculously sealed itself...
Copy !req
1298. yet Southern California is suffering
major aftershocks of a major earthquake.
Copy !req
1299. The population is warned
to be aware of...
Copy !req
1300. Please, come on, turn over.
Copy !req
1301. - Which in some areas has—
- Come on!
Copy !req
1302. Help me. Help me.
Copy !req
1303. No.
Copy !req
1304. Lois.
Copy !req
1305. No, no, no.
Copy !req
1306. No. No.
Copy !req
1307. My son.
Copy !req
1308. It is forbidden for you to interfere
in human history.
Copy !req
1309. One thing I do know, son,
and that is you are here for a reason.
Copy !req
1310. - It is forbidden for you to interfere...
Those things I can do...
Copy !req
1311. all those powers,
and I couldn't even save him.
Copy !req
1312. It is forbidden.
Copy !req
1313. It is forbidden.
Copy !req
1314. Hi.
Copy !req
1315. Don't bother, I think it's dead.
Copy !req
1316. Sure it's dead.
Copy !req
1317. The problem with men of steel, there's
never one around when you want one.
Copy !req
1318. Know what happened to me
while you were off flying?
Copy !req
1319. I was almost in an earthquake...
Copy !req
1320. I had this gas station blow up...
Copy !req
1321. there's telephone poles
falling all over...
Copy !req
1322. I'm almost killed,
and to top the whole thing off...
Copy !req
1323. this stupid car runs out of gas!
Copy !req
1324. I'm sorry about that, Lois...
Copy !req
1325. but I've been kind of busy
for a while.
Copy !req
1326. I'm sorry. That's all right.
Copy !req
1327. Hey!
Copy !req
1328. Thanks a lot, Superman.
Copy !req
1329. You put me in the middle of nowhere
during an earthquake.
Copy !req
1330. No food, no water, snakes everywhere.
Copy !req
1331. - I had no idea if you were coming back—
Jimmy.
Copy !req
1332. Listen, there's something I have to do.
I'll see you later.
Copy !req
1333. He can't stay still for a second.
Copy !req
1334. Oh. Golly, Miss Lane, it's too bad
Mr. Kent didn't see all this.
Copy !req
1335. Yeah, poor Clark.
Copy !req
1336. He's never around when S—
Copy !req
1337. Clark— Wait a minute.
Copy !req
1338. - Wait a minute.
- What?
Copy !req
1339. Lois Lane, that is the silliest idea ever.
Copy !req
1340. Let me tell you something, Miss Lane,
I think he really cares about you.
Copy !req
1341. - Clark? Of course he does.
- No, not Clark.
Copy !req
1342. Oh, well, Superman cares
about everybody, Jimmy.
Copy !req
1343. But, who knows, someday,
you know, if he's lucky...
Copy !req
1344. You're messing up my suit.
Copy !req
1345. You big lummox, you.
Copy !req
1346. Come on, stop it, will you.
Copy !req
1347. Otis, it's your fault.
Watch the ground!
Copy !req
1348. Good evening, warden.
Copy !req
1349. These two men should be safe here...
Copy !req
1350. - ... until they can get a fair trial.
- Who is it?
Copy !req
1351. Lex Luthor!
Copy !req
1352. - The greatest criminal mind of our time!
Of our time!
Copy !req
1353. - I hereby serve notice...
- Notice.
Copy !req
1354. - ... that these walls—
- These walls here...
Copy !req
1355. Will you shut up, please.
Copy !req
1356. All right, take them away, boys.
Copy !req
1357. - You nitwit. Nincompoop!
Guard, guard...
Copy !req
1358. This country is safe again, Superman,
thanks to you.
Copy !req
1359. No, sir. Don't thank me, warden.
Copy !req
1360. We're all part of the same team.
Copy !req
1361. Night.
Copy !req
