1. I ask you now
to pronounce judgment...Copy !req
2. on those accused.Copy !req
3. On this...Copy !req
4. This mindless aberration,
whose only means of expression...Copy !req
5. are wanton violence and destruction.Copy !req
6. On the woman, Ursa...Copy !req
7. whose perversions
and unreasoning hatred of all mankind...Copy !req
8. have threatened even the children
of the planet Krypton.Copy !req
9. Finally, General Zod.Copy !req
10. Chief architect
of this intended revolution...Copy !req
11. and author of this insidious plot
to establish a new order amongst us...Copy !req
12. with himself as absolute ruler.Copy !req
13. The decision of the council
will now be heard.Copy !req
14. Guilty.Copy !req
15. - Guilty.
- Guilty.Copy !req
16. Guilty.Copy !req
17. The vote must be unanimous, Jor-El.Copy !req
18. It has therefore
now become your decision.Copy !req
19. You alone will condemn us
if you wish...Copy !req
20. and you alone
will be held responsible by me.Copy !req
21. You will bow down before me, Jor-El.Copy !req
22. I swear it.Copy !req
23. No matter that it takes an eternity,
you will bow down before me!Copy !req
24. Both you...Copy !req
25. and then one day...Copy !req
26. your heirs!Copy !req
27. You will bow down before me!Copy !req
28. Forgive me!
I'll be back!Copy !req
29. Forgive me!Copy !req
30. Your mother Lara has sent you
three blankets, of red, yellow and blue.Copy !req
31. Their protection will ensure your strength.Copy !req
32. It's kryptonite, Superman.
A little souvenir from the old hometown.Copy !req
33. You were great in your day, Superman.
But it just stands to reason...Copy !req
34. when it came time
to cash in your chips...Copy !req
35. this old, diseased maniac...Copy !req
36. would be your banker.Copy !req
37. Mind over muscle.Copy !req
38. Aah!Copy !req
39. Why did you kiss me first?Copy !req
40. It— I didn't think you'd let me later.Copy !req
41. Stand aside, now.Copy !req
42. Aah!Copy !req
43. Free!Copy !req
44. Nice fresh melons.
Nice fresh melons. Get them fresh here.Copy !req

46. "Lex Luthor's scheme bombs.
Superman saves nation.Copy !req
47. Master criminal draws harsh sentence.
Exclusive story by Lois Lane.Copy !req
48. Photographs by James Olsen."Copy !req
49. Ahh, Luthor, you never looked lovelier.Copy !req
50. Lois, terrific job.Copy !req
51. - Thanks, chief.
- Great story, really great.Copy !req
52. Hey, good morning, chief. You're late.Copy !req
53. Yeah, Miss Lane, that's a great story.
One of the best.Copy !req
54. Jimmy, usually a picture isn't worth a
thousand words when I write the story...Copy !req
55. but in this case, congratulations.Copy !req
56. - Yeah, thanks a lot.
- Yeah.Copy !req
57. There's Mr. Kent. Bet he wishes
he'd been around when it all happened.Copy !req
58. Clark, he's never around
when Superman appears.Copy !req
59. Poor guy.Copy !req
60. - You got a page in the front?
- Yeah.Copy !req
61. Miss Lane got the best story.Copy !req
62. Good morning, Lois.Copy !req
63. Hm. Hi.Copy !req
64. Lane, Kent, get in here!Copy !req
65. Now, see, Jimmy,
you got me in trouble.Copy !req
66. - We were talking.
- So long. A big mistake.Copy !req
67. Next time, don't do that to me.Copy !req
68. - Good morning, Lois. How are you?
- Oh, I'm just super. Thanks.Copy !req
69. - Good morning, Mr. White.
- I'm super.Copy !req
70. - Yeah, morning. You're late, Kent.
- I know. I'm sorry, Mr. White.Copy !req
71. - I got stuck in traffic.
- Oh, that's a new one.Copy !req
72. - Excuse me?
- I mean, as opposed to:Copy !req
73. "I was stuck in a phone booth" or
"I got locked into the men's bathroom."Copy !req
74. What are you talking about?
I'm sorry I was late.Copy !req
75. If you two wanna bicker,
I have just the assignment for you.Copy !req
76. You'll pose as a honeymoon couple to
get an exposé on the newlywed racket.Copy !req
77. Some of those hotels are bilking those
poor kids for every cent they can get.Copy !req
78. Real human-interest stuff.
Make your Aunt Hattie cry her eyes out.Copy !req
79. - Um, newlyweds?
- That is a great idea, Mr. White.Copy !req
80. - I'm sorry, but I'm in the middle of—
- I mean, it wouldn't take long.Copy !req
81. We could just fly right up there
and zoom back down again.Copy !req
82. No, Superman?Copy !req
83. If he'd give you two a ride,
maybe we could save a couple bucks.Copy !req
84. I gotta see young Olsen.
Six lousy photographs...Copy !req
85. - ... and he's hitting me up for a raise.
- Excuse me. Mr. White? Could we talk?Copy !req
86. Darn.Copy !req
87. You look like the cat who swallowed
the canary this morning.Copy !req
88. A canary? No, actually I was
thinking of something bigger...Copy !req
89. something that flies,
something more in blue.Copy !req
90. Lois, as usual, I'm totally in the dark—Copy !req
91. Let me just turn on the lights
for you then.Copy !req
92. - Get the picture?
- Mm.Copy !req
93. I didn't put this together until
this morning. Which is really strange...Copy !req
94. because a good reporter isn't
supposed to let anything slip by her.Copy !req
95. Mm. Well, that's very amusing. Yes.Copy !req
96. - Excuse me.
- Amusing?Copy !req
97. - Yes, sirree, that's— That's very amusing.
- Amusing, huh?Copy !req
98. Tall, broad shoulders...Copy !req
99. dark hair.Copy !req
100. Gotta give you credit,
you really had me fooled.Copy !req
101. And I'm nobody's fool...Copy !req
102. Superman.Copy !req
103. Superman?Copy !req
104. You mean you think I'm Superman?Copy !req
105. - Willing to bet my life on it.
- Lois, you know, you are priceless.Copy !req
106. Really. That is the single most
ridiculous thing I've ever—Copy !req
107. - Lois, what are you doing?
- You wouldn't let me die, Superman.Copy !req
108. - Oh, God.
- Help her out. Help her out.Copy !req
109. - Clark!
- Lois, what have you done?Copy !req
110. Clark, the— You're not—Copy !req
111. Hey, Clark, you seen Lois?Copy !req
112. Uh, um, oh.Copy !req
113. She just stepped out for a minute.Copy !req
114. This is how it ends for
the greatest criminal mind of our time.Copy !req
115. Not with a whimper, not with a bang.Copy !req
116. How do they choose
to reward Lex Luthor...Copy !req
117. the greatest genius in this world?Copy !req
118. Do they give him glory or treasure?
What, matter of fact, do they give him?Copy !req
119. Life plus 25, Luthor. Get to work.Copy !req
120. Don't feel bad, Mr. Luthor.
It almost worked.Copy !req
121. I mean, California almost
fell down, right in the ocean.Copy !req
122. Millions of people was almost killed.Copy !req
123. If it hadn't been for that guy
Superman, that overgrown Boy Scout.Copy !req
124. - I want my Liberace record back tonight.
- Tonight?Copy !req
125. What do you do with a guy like that?
He flies around so fast and everything.Copy !req
126. I mean, they can't even trace
that guy on that radar they got.Copy !req
127. Every time they try, he just flies off.Copy !req
128. - Where?
- North.Copy !req
129. Why?Copy !req
130. To ski?Copy !req
131. Otis, every man
has his vulnerable point.Copy !req
132. Some, like you, Otis,
have more than one.Copy !req
133. I didn't see Superman's in time.Copy !req
134. But now, through patience,
invention, and skill...Copy !req
135. my little black box
is just about ready.Copy !req
136. Oh, that little black box in our cell?Copy !req
137. That little black box, Mr. Luthor...Copy !req
138. what's it for?Copy !req
139. That little black box goes beyond
any normal, conventional radar.Copy !req
140. It tracks alpha waves.Copy !req
141. Alpha waves. Yeah.Copy !req
142. I could've said it tracked pasta e fagioli,
couldn't I?Copy !req
143. Oh, with garlic, Mr. Luthor.
And butter.Copy !req
144. Boy.Copy !req
145. Those alpha waves will
take me north to his secret.Copy !req
146. And when I have his secret,
I'll have Superman.Copy !req
147. Slasher Fogelstein's a bed wetter.Copy !req
148. Slasher Fogelstein's a bed wetter.
Pass it.Copy !req
149. Hi, Mr. Fogelstein.Copy !req
150. —too fast.
Can you get the speed right?Copy !req
151. I told you, they installed those
three weeks ago.Copy !req
152. Hey.Copy !req
153. You follow the bouncing ball for a while.
Thing's giving me a headache.Copy !req
154. Anyway, somebody's
gotta check up on those guys.Copy !req
155. Yeah, I keep on forgetting about them.Copy !req
156. How long they been up there, 45 days?Copy !req
157. The whole world's forgotten about it.Copy !req
158. Houston calling Artemis II.Copy !req
159. Houston calling Artemis II. Come in.Copy !req
160. Morning, Houston.
Hold on, Nate.Copy !req
161. Yo.
How are things?Copy !req
162. All systems normal, Houston.Copy !req
163. Andy is out doing
the geological survey.Copy !req
164. More rocks. Nice.Copy !req
165. And cosmonaut Boris
is getting some soil samples.Copy !req
166. By the way, Boris and I are engaged.Copy !req
167. I had a feeling about you guys
when I saw your Rorschach tests.Copy !req
168. Just a little détente
humor there, Houston.Copy !req
169. Surface conditions unchanged?Copy !req
170. Well, it's mighty
pretty out there. Mighty...Copy !req
171. - ... pretty.
- Mighty pretty.Copy !req
172. Right.Copy !req
173. Uh, look, Nate?Copy !req
174. Nate, wake up, will you?Copy !req
175. That's it. I'm dreaming.Copy !req
176. Artemis, come in.Copy !req
177. Well, Houston, we seem to have
an unidentified flying object.Copy !req
178. Unidentified?Copy !req
179. What does it look like?Copy !req
180. Well, a lot like a girl.Copy !req
181. You.Copy !req
182. - What kind of a creature are you?
- Just a man.Copy !req
183. A man?Copy !req
184. Aah!Copy !req
185. Aah!Copy !req
186. What a fragile sort of life form this is.Copy !req
187. Houston, come in. Come in, Houston.Copy !req
188. Come in, Houston. Come in.Copy !req
189. Attempting manual liftoff.Copy !req
190. Can somebody hear me?Copy !req
191. Houston!Copy !req
192. Aah! Oh, come on.Copy !req
193. Come on, Houston!Copy !req
194. Oh, no. No!Copy !req
195. Somebody help me!Copy !req
196. - Artemis, Houston calling. Come in.
- What's going on?Copy !req
197. - I don't know. We've lost contact.
- So?Copy !req
198. Well, we really—Copy !req
199. Artemis, come in, please.Copy !req
200. All right, which one of you guys
is using the hair dryer?Copy !req
201. Strange. I tore those
metal fibers like paper.Copy !req
202. And what he did was amazing.Copy !req
203. - Something is happening.
- Yes, to all of us.Copy !req
204. The closer we come to an
atmosphere with only one sun...Copy !req
205. a yellow sun...Copy !req
206. the more our molecular
density gives us unlimited powers.Copy !req
207. They come from there.Copy !req
208. A place called Houston.Copy !req
209. Then we will go there too...Copy !req
210. to rule.Copy !req
211. Finally, to rule.Copy !req
212. Three-eighty-two, out.Copy !req
213. Three-eighty-three, out.Copy !req
214. Three-eighty-four, out.Copy !req
215. Three-eighty-five, out.Copy !req
216. Lights out, Luthor.Copy !req
217. I said, lights out.Copy !req
218. You guys are about 10 seconds
away from solitary, you know that?Copy !req
219. I told you to—Copy !req
220. Freeze, freeze.Copy !req
221. Mr. Luthor.Copy !req
222. - How we gonna get over that wall?
- How'd we get in?Copy !req
223. - We flew in here, remember?
- That's how we'll get out.Copy !req
224. Oh, no, not that guy.Copy !req
225. Psst.Copy !req
226. Did you just go "psst"?Copy !req
227. I wish I had, Mr. Luthor,
before we left.Copy !req
228. Psst.Copy !req
229. - Not that "psst," that "psst."
- Oh.Copy !req
230. - Psst.
- Psst.Copy !req
231. Psst.Copy !req
232. - Don't go "psst" when I go "psst."
- You do it.Copy !req
233. - Psst.
- Psst.Copy !req
234. - Psst. Psst.
- Go out there and find it.Copy !req
235. - What am I looking for?
- You'll know when you see it.Copy !req
236. I think I found it.Copy !req
237. What is it?Copy !req
238. It's a ladder, you dummy.Copy !req
239. - Hi, Miss Teschmacher.
- Shh.Copy !req
240. Psst. Psst.Copy !req
241. Come on.Copy !req
242. Hurry up. Hurry up.Copy !req
243. Come on, hurry.Copy !req
244. Otis, hold that ladder. Hurry up.Copy !req
245. —yard line, touchdown!
Oh, what a beautiful play.Copy !req
246. But there's a marker downfield.
It could be against—Copy !req
247. - Come up.
- Come on.Copy !req
248. Here I come, Mr. Luthor.Copy !req
249. - Get off. Get off.
- Otis!Copy !req
250. - We're sinking!
- Get off, get off!Copy !req
251. Very good,
Miss Teschmacher. Very good.Copy !req
252. - What am I doing here? Why am I here?
- Miss Teschmacher...Copy !req
253. is this a philosophy seminar?Copy !req
254. - No. This is a getaway.
- No.Copy !req
255. - Getaway.
- Right.Copy !req
256. It's ingenious. I don't know
where you got the inspiration from.Copy !req
257. - I got it from you, Lex.
- Ah.Copy !req
258. Hot air rises.Copy !req
259. Would you like to take a trip?Copy !req
260. A trip? A vacation.Copy !req
261. Lex, I can go shopping.
I can buy a bikini.Copy !req
262. You thought about me in a bikini
while in prison?Copy !req
263. No, I didn't, actually.Copy !req
264. I thought about you in a parka.Copy !req
265. You thought about me in a parka?Copy !req
266. You are sick, Lex. You are really sick.Copy !req
267. That's possible.Copy !req
268. North, Miss Teschmacher.Copy !req
269. Due north.Copy !req
270. Lex, north.Copy !req
271. That's what I said, due north.Copy !req
272. That's what you said.
I know I said I said that.Copy !req
273. - I just heard it.
- Yes, Lex.Copy !req
274. Don't repeat what I say
when I say something.Copy !req
275. I won't repeat what you say.
Okay, don't.Copy !req
276. Well, stop repeating me.Copy !req
277. Excuse me.Copy !req
278. If you'd like to carry Mrs. Smith
over the threshold...Copy !req
279. It's sort of traditional.Copy !req
280. I can give you a hand
if you have trouble lifting.Copy !req
281. - Oh. No, of course not.
- Honey. Thanks, I'll walk.Copy !req
282. Certainly, dear.Copy !req
283. Mush! Mush!Copy !req
284. I am mushing.Copy !req
285. North, Miss Teschmacher.Copy !req
286. - North, north!
- Yes, Lex. North.Copy !req
287. Oh, you must be wrong, Lex.
This couldn't be his home way up here.Copy !req
288. "Wrong, Lex."Copy !req
289. Miss Teschmacher, those are two words
we do not use in the same sentence.Copy !req
290. Well, it's funny there's no front door.Copy !req
291. Miss Teschmacher, "funny" is a person
trying to smile without any teeth.Copy !req
292. Right.Copy !req
293. All right, come on, Lex. Come on.Copy !req
294. Move out of the way.
Oh.Copy !req
295. - This way.
- It's this way.Copy !req
296. Lex, it's this way.Copy !req
297. It's this way, Lex.Copy !req
298. - Come on. Come on.
- Get off!Copy !req
299. Come on.Copy !req
300. - Fantastic.
- Fantastic.Copy !req
301. It's fantastic!Copy !req
302. The construction goes far beyond
any known architectural theory.Copy !req
303. - It's beautiful.
- It's beautiful.Copy !req
304. - Lex.
- I'll be all right.Copy !req
305. No, me.Copy !req
306. Why can't you be more careful?Copy !req
307. - It's beautiful.
- Beautiful.Copy !req
308. - It has everything.
- Wrong.Copy !req
309. - Why didn't you go before we left?
- That was two days ago.Copy !req
310. Be careful, Lex.Copy !req
311. Get—!Copy !req
312. Frankly, I think this place
is a little boring. It's all white.Copy !req
313. Why doesn't the guy
put up some pictures?Copy !req
314. Maybe some bullfighting posters.Copy !req
315. Don't touch anything.
Don't touch anything.Copy !req
316. - lce.
- I said, don't touch it.Copy !req
317. It's not ice.
It looks like a crystal.Copy !req
318. The virtuous spirit has no need
for thankful approval.Copy !req
319. - What the—?
- Only the certain conviction...Copy !req
320. that what has been done is right.Copy !req
321. That's the old man.
He looks just like the kid.Copy !req
322. - Are you the old man?
- Ask him where the bathroom is.Copy !req
323. - Shh.
- Develop such conviction in yourself.Copy !req
324. Are you here?Copy !req
325. - The human heart on your planet...
- He's not here.Copy !req
326. It's a voice from the past.
That's cute. That's really cute. Nice.Copy !req
327. Lies, monstrous deceptions.Copy !req
328. So much for moral rearmament.Copy !req
329. Give me another crystal.Copy !req
330. Education crystal 108. Earth culture.Copy !req
331. A typical ode much loved by the people
you will live among, Kal-El.Copy !req
332. Trees by Joyce Kilmer.Copy !req
333. I think that I shall never seeCopy !req
334. A poem as lovely as a tree.Copy !req
335. Come on, I like trees.Copy !req
336. So does your average cocker spaniel.
Give me another.Copy !req
337. Cute.Copy !req
338. My son...Copy !req
339. - The man never ages.
- Never ages.Copy !req
340. the time has come to tell you of
the darkest episode in Krypton history.Copy !req
341. - Now, this I wanna hear.
- Unfortunately...Copy !req
342. even on our peaceful planet...Copy !req
343. there have appeared
once in a great while...Copy !req
344. certain antisocial elements.Copy !req
345. Deviants...Copy !req
346. what you call on Earth "criminals."Copy !req
347. Criminals.Copy !req
348. Deviants.
He was right in the first place.Copy !req
349. Though of course, we are not
a penalty planet like Earth...Copy !req
350. and these unhappy souls were almost
always successfully transformed...Copy !req
351. - ... into productive citizens.
- You never heard of Lex Luthor?Copy !req
352. There were, however, three exceptions—
Only three.Copy !req
353. —who proved
impossible to rehabilitate.Copy !req
354. Aha. There's hope.Copy !req
355. Non, the destroyer.Copy !req
356. Unreasoning violence
in the shape of a being.Copy !req
357. Ursa. Vicious, cruel, obsessed
by a single-minded hatred...Copy !req
358. which could never be deterred.Copy !req
359. And the one force
that could unite them...Copy !req
360. the only one whose warped genius
could harness these forces of evil:Copy !req
361. General Zod.Copy !req
362. - He looks kind of cute.
- His intended insurrection...Copy !req
363. was the most painful episode
our people ever had to endure.Copy !req
364. But after a long and terrible battle...Copy !req
365. peace and harmony
were once again restored.Copy !req
366. Kind of an anticlimax.Copy !req
367. We had, of course, no death penalty.Copy !req
368. Sensible enough.Copy !req
369. And so they were placed
in the Phantom Zone...Copy !req
370. to be imprisoned for all eternity.Copy !req
371. I do not know what could be done
if they were to escape.Copy !req
372. On Krypton, these
villains were uncontrollable.Copy !req
373. On Earth, each of them
would have the identical powers...Copy !req
374. that you have.Copy !req
375. Think of it. Three super villains.Copy !req
376. All three with the same power he has.Copy !req
377. All three totally dedicated
to corruption, violence, evil.Copy !req
378. They need a contact on Earth.Copy !req
379. Someone who felt the same as they did,
someone who...Copy !req
380. had the same wonderful contempt for
life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.Copy !req
381. Too true to be good.Copy !req
382. Right?Copy !req
383. - Miss Teschmacher?
- I found it.Copy !req
384. I think.Copy !req
385. - Where's Jimmy Olsen when I need him?
- Golly, isn't it beautiful?Copy !req
386. Yeah, it's gorgeous. Gorgeous.Copy !req
387. - Lois?
- Yeah?Copy !req
388. Look. Everybody's holding hands.
Maybe we should hold hands too, huh?Copy !req
389. - Here's my hand, Clark. Hold it.
- Thanks.Copy !req
390. You know what?
They're afraid to let go.Copy !req
391. - Why?
- They let go, straight to the lawyer.Copy !req
392. Oh, I don't know about that.
They look kind of happy to me.Copy !req
393. That's because you're blind, Clark.Copy !req
394. - Oh, yeah.
- Here.Copy !req
395. - No, I've got it. No, I—
- Yeah. Clark.Copy !req
396. You've gotta look after yourself.
You've only got one pair of eyes.Copy !req
397. - God.
- Lois?Copy !req
398. - Now, here.
- Right.Copy !req
399. - Don't say I never did anything for you.
- Thank you.Copy !req
400. Son! Excuse me, please.Copy !req
401. - Be careful.
- What are you doing?Copy !req
402. Get down! Get down!Copy !req
403. You embarrass me
here in front of everybody.Copy !req
404. Lois, did you see what almost
happened there? That little boy—Copy !req
405. Hey, I'm hungry. You hungry?Copy !req
406. - Lois, you're amazing.
- Why, because I'm hungry?Copy !req
407. No. Here you are standing in front of one
of nature's most awesome spectacles...Copy !req
408. and you're thinking about
food. Aren't you impressed?Copy !req
409. Clark, once a girl's seen
Superman in action...Copy !req
410. Niagara Falls kind of
leaves you cold, you know?Copy !req
411. Him again, huh?Copy !req
412. Oh, I'm sorry.Copy !req
413. I have a one-track mind, don't I?Copy !req
414. Well, my one-track mind is
telling me that I'm hungry.Copy !req
415. - Hot dog?
- Hot dog.Copy !req
416. Hot dog.Copy !req
417. Could I have some orange juice?Copy !req
418. - Freshly squeezed.
- Freshly squeezed, I know.Copy !req
419. Hey, Mom. Look!Copy !req
420. Uh-huh. Yeah, honey. That's nice.Copy !req
421. Okay, it's two mustard
and relish, and...Copy !req
422. Oh, my God!Copy !req
423. Help!Copy !req
424. Help!Copy !req
425. Somebody help!Copy !req
426. Do something!Copy !req
427. Good.Copy !req
428. Hey, Superman!Copy !req
429. Way to go, Superman!Copy !req
430. We got a great shot.Copy !req
431. What a nice man.
Of course he's Jewish.Copy !req
432. Incredible.Copy !req
433. - There you go.
- Again, again!Copy !req
434. No, I'm sorry.
Only one ride to a customer.Copy !req
435. - Superman. Superman, it's me, it's Lois!
- Bye.Copy !req
436. Come here. You're gonna get it!Copy !req
437. - Give me a heart attack here.
- It's me. It's Lois.Copy !req
438. It's Lois Lane.Copy !req
439. Well, hello and goodbye.Copy !req
440. So this is planet Houston.Copy !req
441. A very strange surface.Copy !req
442. - Oops.
- Oh, my gosh.Copy !req
443. Oh, that's all right.
I just didn't hear you knock, that's all.Copy !req
444. - Lois.
- Mm-hm.Copy !req
445. The door wasn't even locked.
Just anybody can walk in here.Copy !req
446. There you go
putting yourself down again.Copy !req
447. - Oh, very funny.
- No, really, I'm serious.Copy !req
448. Well, anyway...Copy !req
449. here, a little something for
the newlyweds' dinner tonight.Copy !req
450. Pansies. Clark, how—
How different.Copy !req
451. Would you believe
they grow wild all around here?Copy !req
452. You should see what they
charge for roses at the gift shop.Copy !req
453. - I'll bet, huh?
- Hm.Copy !req
454. - Um, you know something, Lois?
- What?Copy !req
455. Well, you know, in spite of
the unreality of all this—Copy !req
456. You know, posing as newlyweds
for the sake of a newspaper story.Copy !req
457. Well, in spite of myself even...Copy !req
458. I'm kind of starting to
feel like one in a way.Copy !req
459. - A newlywed, you?
- Don't see why that should be so strange.Copy !req
460. I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.Copy !req
461. I mean, I'm sure there's
thousands of girls who'd—Copy !req
462. Well, a few girls anyway.Copy !req
463. - Go ahead and say it.
- Say what?Copy !req
464. That somehow you're not satisfied...Copy !req
465. being here with me. Hm?Copy !req
466. That in some way I don't seem to
shape up very well in your eyes.Copy !req
467. I don't have anything to apologize for.
I'm a good reporter.Copy !req
468. No, I'm a very good reporter.
And an even better friend to you.Copy !req
469. - Stand up.
- Stand up?Copy !req
470. Yeah, stand up, just for fun.Copy !req
471. Now, come here. Look at yourself.
Just look at yourself.Copy !req
472. What we have here is
a potentially aggressive, dynamite guy...Copy !req
473. who can do anything he wants.Copy !req
474. I mean, it's not my fault
you keep putting yourself down.Copy !req
475. - Oh, yeah? How?
- Well, for starters...Copy !req
476. you slouch all the time.
Here, stand up straight.Copy !req
477. There, that's better.Copy !req
478. And get yourself a jacket with a vent
and shoes that don't lace up...Copy !req
479. and a shirt with a little color
or a pattern or something.Copy !req
480. And a bow tie that doesn't look
like a letter opener.Copy !req
481. All right, Lois. All right.Copy !req
482. - We've been through this, haven't we?
- Yes.Copy !req
483. I know where this is all leading to. Um...Copy !req
484. And I'm sorry. I mean, I'm sorry...Copy !req
485. but no matter how hard I try, I just—Copy !req
486. Just— Just never will be him.Copy !req
487. Him who?Copy !req
488. "Him who"? Him Superman.Copy !req
489. Now, I can't help the fact that
you seem to think that you love him.Copy !req
490. That's something I'll have to live with.
But darn it, Lois, that's enough.Copy !req
491. Maybe I just can't stand
the competition anymore.Copy !req
492. And just maybe you've been
the competition all along.Copy !req
493. Lois, I've never been
particularly good at riddles.Copy !req
494. Let me make this one
really easy for you.Copy !req
495. Why, with thousands of children
potentially falling off something lethal...Copy !req
496. all around the world, would Superman
be in Niagara Falls today?Copy !req
497. Why not the Grand Canyon?Copy !req
498. - Ask the child's family. They would know.
- Why is it always when I'm with you...Copy !req
499. until Superman appears?
And then you seem to disappear.Copy !req
500. - Very conveniently, it seems to me.
- I was out for hot dogs. For Pete's sake—Copy !req
501. Uh-huh. When Superman appeared,
I looked at that hot dog stand...Copy !req
502. and you were gone.Copy !req
503. - I was—
- Nowhere.Copy !req
504. I can't help it if I had to go to the—Copy !req
505. You are Superman, aren't you?Copy !req
506. Lois, look, we've been through
these hallucinations of yours before.Copy !req
507. Can't you see what you almost did?Copy !req
508. Throwing yourself off a building
30 stories high?Copy !req
509. Can't you see the tragic mistake
you almost made?Copy !req
510. Yeah, I made a mistake.
I made a mistake because...Copy !req
511. I risked my life instead of yours.Copy !req
512. Lois, don't be insane.Copy !req
513. And don't fall down because
you're just gonna have to get up again.Copy !req
514. Lois, now, don't be crazy now. Lois!Copy !req
515. It is you.Copy !req
516. I guess I've known this
for the longest time.Copy !req
517. You realize, of course...Copy !req
518. if you'd been wrong,
Clark Kent would have been killed.Copy !req
519. With a blank?Copy !req
520. Gotcha.Copy !req
521. A primitive sort of life form.Copy !req
522. Did you see that?Copy !req
523. Did you see what I did?Copy !req
524. I have powers beyond reason here.Copy !req
525. We all have them, my dear.Copy !req
526. - Wow, this is your home?
- No.Copy !req
527. Actually, I live in the city,
about three blocks from you.Copy !req
528. No, this is a very special place for me.Copy !req
529. I wanted you to see it.Copy !req
530. Listen, you warm enough?Copy !req
531. I guess I should be freezing,
but I'm not.Copy !req
532. Good.Copy !req
533. Come on, let me show you.Copy !req
534. I don't know.Copy !req
535. From the look of them,
I'll bet $10 they're from Los Angeles.Copy !req
536. Hey, you hippies,
get your butts off the road!Copy !req
537. I like the globe. It flashes
red like our Krypton sun.Copy !req
538. But not this irritating noise.Copy !req
539. Make way.Copy !req
540. Did I hear right?Copy !req
541. That son of a bitch give me an order?Copy !req
542. Duane, you take care of it.Copy !req
543. Just what in the hell
do you think you're doing here?Copy !req
544. What is this symbol?Copy !req
545. Do you follow another leader?Copy !req
546. Follow the leader?Copy !req
547. Holy skunk sweat.Copy !req
548. - All right.
- A weapon of some sort.Copy !req
549. How the hell did you do that?Copy !req
550. Jesus H. Christ.Copy !req
551. - Mm. That was good.
- I thought we might...Copy !req
552. abandon the orange juice for once.Copy !req
553. - Here, cheers.
- Cheers.Copy !req
554. Must be tough being Clark Kent,
isn't it?Copy !req
555. No. No, I really—Copy !req
556. I really like it sometimes.Copy !req
557. Even though I do
make a fool of myself.Copy !req
558. But, you know, if it weren't for him,
I never would have met you.Copy !req
559. But he is you.Copy !req
560. - It's kind of confusing.
- Not to me, it isn't.Copy !req
561. Everything's clear.Copy !req
562. Until yesterday,
another middle-American town...Copy !req
563. Middle America had forgotten.Copy !req
564. But today, the population—
Exaggerated reports put it at 123.Copy !req
565. —has increased by three.Copy !req
566. And these three new arrivals
bring destruction in their wake.Copy !req
567. As I look west into
East Houston this morning...Copy !req
568. I see a town gripped with fear.Copy !req
569. Who's
the guy? Get that guy. Follow the guy.Copy !req
570. Who's the
big guy? Okay, yeah, we've got a—Copy !req
571. - You got that?
- No.Copy !req
572. That's fine.
Wiggle it.Copy !req
573. Who else is seeing this?Copy !req
574. Well, with this satellite linkup,
just about everybody. The whole planet.Copy !req
575. The whole planet Houston?Copy !req
576. Earth. The whole planet Earth.Copy !req
577. You may continue.Copy !req
578. As the extraordinary story continues—Copy !req
579. - Enough of this man.
- As this extraordinary—Copy !req
580. If the whole planet is watching,
let's show them something interesting.Copy !req
581. Throw down your arms and surrender!Copy !req
582. This is an order.Copy !req
583. General Zod does not
take orders. He gives them.Copy !req
584. He was in the line of that fire
and nothing happened to him.Copy !req
585. I haven't seen the likes
of this since Superman.Copy !req
586. Yes? Yes.Copy !req
587. The Newsbeat control room has informed
me that a fleet of helicopter gunships is—Copy !req
588. - Mr. President, sir, can't we—?
- There's nothing anybody can do.Copy !req
589. They have such powers,
nothing can stop them.Copy !req
590. Where's Superman?Copy !req
591. Where is he?
Why doesn't he do something?Copy !req
592. Fire again.Copy !req
593. Fire again.Copy !req
594. Look. They need machines to fly.Copy !req
595. Banking now.
What bravery.Copy !req
596. Be nice to them, my dear.
Blow them a kiss.Copy !req
597. Rockets ready.
Coming in on target. Wait, wait.Copy !req
598. We're out of control.Copy !req
599. We're coming in, coming down.
Can't control it!Copy !req
600. We're coming down.Copy !req
601. I win.Copy !req
602. I always win.Copy !req
603. Is there no one on
this planet to even challenge me?Copy !req
604. Come forward.Copy !req
605. Your general wishes to speak.Copy !req
606. I am General Zod, your ruler.Copy !req
607. Yes, today begins a new order!Copy !req
608. Your lands, your possessions...Copy !req
609. your very lives will gladly be
given in tribute to me.Copy !req
610. In return for your obedience...Copy !req
611. you will enjoy
my generous protection.Copy !req
612. In other words,
you will be allowed to live.Copy !req
613. So you are a general?Copy !req
614. And who is your superior?Copy !req
615. - I answer only to the president.
- And he will answer to me.Copy !req
616. Or all of his cities
will end up like this one.Copy !req
617. Thousands of hours to create,
and they defaced it in seconds.Copy !req
618. Imagine what they'll do
to the world if we resist.Copy !req
619. The people of your planet
are well-pleased with you, Kal-El.Copy !req
620. You have served them faithfully,
and they are grateful for it.Copy !req
621. And yet you have returned
to reason with me once again.Copy !req
622. My son, I have tried to anticipate
your every question.Copy !req
623. This was one I'd—Copy !req
624. I'd hoped you would not ask.Copy !req
625. My attachment, um...Copy !req
626. the feelings which I have developed
for a certain human being...Copy !req
627. have deeply affected me, Father.Copy !req
628. You cannot serve humanity...Copy !req
629. by investing your time and emotion
in one human being...Copy !req
630. at the expense of the rest.Copy !req
631. - The concepts are mutally exclusive.
- And...Copy !req
632. if I no longer wish
to serve humanity...Copy !req
633. Is this how you repay their gratitude?Copy !req
634. By abandoning the weak,
the defenseless, the needy...Copy !req
635. for the sake of your selfish pursuits?Copy !req
636. Selfish? After all I've done for them?Copy !req
637. Will there ever come a time
when I've served enough?Copy !req
638. At least they get a chance
for happiness.Copy !req
639. I only ask as much, no more.Copy !req
640. Yours is a higher happiness.Copy !req
641. The fulfillment of your mission,
an inspiration you must have felt.Copy !req
642. You must have felt
that happiness within you.Copy !req
643. My son, surely you cannot
deny that feeling.Copy !req
644. No, I cannot...Copy !req
645. any more than I can deny the other,
which is stronger in me, Father.Copy !req
646. So much stronger.Copy !req
647. Is there no way then, Father?Copy !req
648. Must I finally be denied
the one thing in life which I truly desire?Copy !req
649. if you will not be Kal-El...Copy !req
650. if you will live as one of them...Copy !req
651. love their kind as one of them...Copy !req
652. then it follows that you must...Copy !req
653. become one of them.Copy !req
654. This crystal chamber...Copy !req
655. has in it the harnessed rays
of the red sun of Krypton.Copy !req
656. Once exposed to them...Copy !req
657. all your great powers
on Earth will disappear.Copy !req
658. Forever.Copy !req
659. Once this is done,
there's no going back.Copy !req
660. You will feel like an ordinary man.Copy !req
661. And you can be harmed
like an ordinary man.Copy !req
662. Think, Kal-El.Copy !req
663. I beg you.Copy !req
664. Father...Copy !req
665. I love her.Copy !req
666. Think, Kal-El.Copy !req
667. Come on. Come on.Copy !req
668. Look out! Aah!Copy !req
669. Aah!Copy !req
670. You are the one they call president?Copy !req
671. I am.Copy !req
672. I see you are practiced
in worshipping things that fly.Copy !req
673. Good.Copy !req
674. Rise before Zod.Copy !req
675. Now, kneel before Zod.Copy !req
676. You are not the president.Copy !req
677. No one who leads so many
could possibly kneel so quickly.Copy !req
678. I am the man they are protecting.Copy !req
679. I am the president.Copy !req
680. I'll kneel before you
if it will save lives.Copy !req
681. It will.Copy !req
682. Starting with your own.Copy !req
683. What a backward planet this must be...Copy !req
684. where the men wear the ribbons...Copy !req
685. and the jewelry.Copy !req
686. What I do now...Copy !req
687. I do for the sake of
the people of the world.Copy !req
688. But there is one man here on Earth
who will never kneel before you.Copy !req
689. Who is this imbecile? Where is he?Copy !req
690. I wish I knew.Copy !req
691. Oh, God.Copy !req
692. Zod.Copy !req
693. Hey.Copy !req
694. You're awfully quiet over there.Copy !req
695. Hm? Oh. Yeah, I was just thinking...Copy !req
696. I can't believe what
you've given up for me.Copy !req
697. Are you kidding? I didn't do
it for you, Lois, I did it for us.Copy !req
698. See, I told you there'd be
a hot dog place somewhere.Copy !req
699. Okay. It sure takes longer
when you can't fly.Copy !req
700. Hurry up.Copy !req
701. - Come on.
- Okay.Copy !req
702. Come on, it's my treat. Come on.Copy !req
703. Oh, boy, it's Mr. Wonderful.Copy !req
704. Thank you.Copy !req
705. - Do you have a men's room?
- Yeah. Right in the corner.Copy !req
706. - Want to sit down?
- Yeah.Copy !req
707. Hi, what would you folks like?Copy !req
708. I'd like a cheeseburger with
everything on it, and a Coke...Copy !req
709. an order of fries
and a side salad, please.Copy !req
710. - And for you, sir?
- I'll think about it when I get back.Copy !req
711. Right. That's one cheeseburger—Copy !req
712. - Steak and eggs, over easy, coffee.
- Can I have my Coke?Copy !req
713. Coming right up.Copy !req
714. - I'm sorry, that seat's taken.
- It is now, sweetheart.Copy !req
715. Can I buy you something to eat?Copy !req
716. No, thank you.Copy !req
717. Excuse me. I think
you're sitting in my seat.Copy !req
718. Your seat's in there, four-eyes.Copy !req
719. Oh.Copy !req
720. Gee, I think perhaps somebody
ought to teach you some manners, sir.Copy !req
721. Yeah? Well, let me
know when he comes in.Copy !req
722. - Look, Clark, we can just—
- Honey.Copy !req
723. Excuse me, sir, would
you care to step outside?Copy !req
724. I said, excuse me, sir,
would you care to step outside?Copy !req
725. Now, listen, Rocky,
your steak's coming right up.Copy !req
726. Keep it on the flame, Ron.
This is just a minute steak.Copy !req
727. After you.Copy !req
728. Clark.
It's all right, honey.Copy !req
729. Clark!Copy !req
730. You all right, fella?Copy !req
731. He's gonna be fine,
just give me that.Copy !req
732. - Clark?
- Blood. It's my blood.Copy !req
733. I think maybe we ought to
hire a bodyguard from now on.Copy !req
734. I don't want a bodyguard.
I want the man I fell in love with.Copy !req
735. I know that, Lois.Copy !req
736. I wish he were here.Copy !req
737. Clark.Copy !req
738. Boy, you just don't have
enough sense to stay down, do you?Copy !req
739. You— You— You are no good.Copy !req
740. Settle down!Copy !req
741. I don't like your meat anyway.Copy !req
742. Oh, God.Copy !req
743. Clark? Clark?Copy !req
744. Clark, can you get up?Copy !req
745. - All right. Come on. I got you.
- Go slow. Go slow.Copy !req
746. Try and get up in that chair.Copy !req
747. - Sit down.
- I'm all right. I'm all right.Copy !req
748. Okay, everybody, he's all right.
Just relax. We'll have some fresh coffee.Copy !req
749. I'll turn the box on.Copy !req
750. We interrupt this program
for an urgent message...Copy !req
751. from the president
of the United States.Copy !req
752. This is your president.Copy !req
753. On behalf of my country, and in the
name of the other leaders of the world...Copy !req
754. with whom I have today consulted...Copy !req
755. I hereby abdicate...Copy !req
756. all authority and
control over this planet...Copy !req
757. to General Zod.Copy !req
758. Zod.Copy !req
759. Only by strict compliance
with all his directions...Copy !req
760. will the lives of
innocent millions be spared.Copy !req
761. Superman, can you hear me?Copy !req
762. - Superman, where—?
- Who is this Superman?Copy !req
763. - You'll find out. And when you do—
- Come to me, Superman, if you dare.Copy !req
764. I defy you.Copy !req
765. Come! Come and kneel before Zod.Copy !req
766. Zod!Copy !req
767. - Here? When?
- When?Copy !req
768. Where the hell have you been, Mac?
On a desert island?Copy !req
769. I have to go back.Copy !req
770. You can't go back.Copy !req
771. - There's no way now.
- I have to.Copy !req
772. I've gotta try, damn it. I've
gotta try something, anything.Copy !req
773. It's not your fault.Copy !req
774. You didn't know
this was gonna happen.Copy !req
775. He knew.Copy !req
776. I heard him.Copy !req
777. I just didn't listen.Copy !req
778. You're master of all you survey.Copy !req
779. And so I was yesterday.Copy !req
780. And the day before.Copy !req
781. Hello, there.Copy !req
782. Lex Luthor.Copy !req
783. You've heard the name?
The greatest criminal mind on Earth.Copy !req
784. I told you this was a puny planet.Copy !req
785. Wait just a moment.Copy !req
786. Wait until you get to know
me better. Will you, please?Copy !req
787. Wait. Look, I can give
you anything you want.Copy !req
788. I can give you the brass ring...Copy !req
789. the unlimited freedom
to maim, kill, destroy.Copy !req
790. Plus, Lex Luthor's keen mind.
Lex Luthor's savvy.Copy !req
791. Lex Luthor's career guidance.
Lex Luthor's School of Better—Copy !req
792. We have all of this without you.Copy !req
793. You cannot bargain
with what you don't have.Copy !req
794. Magnificent One...Copy !req
795. what I am bargaining with
is what you do not have.Copy !req
796. The son of Jor-El.Copy !req
797. The son of Jor-El?Copy !req
798. I said that, didn't I?Copy !req
799. Jor-El, our jailer?Copy !req
800. No, Jor-El, the baseball player.Copy !req
801. Yes, Jor-El, your jailer.Copy !req
802. - The son of Jor-El? On this planet?
- Aye.Copy !req
803. Possibly you know him better
by his nom de voyage...Copy !req
804. or his name he travels under:Copy !req
805. - Superman.
- Ah.Copy !req
806. So this is Superman.Copy !req
807. How do you know of Jor-El?Copy !req
808. My Fullness, as I
explained to you before...Copy !req
809. I'm about the best there is.Copy !req
810. Revenge.Copy !req
811. We will kill the son of our jailer.Copy !req
812. - Revenge.
- Revenge! Now we're cooking.Copy !req
813. - He flies, then?
- Constantly.Copy !req
814. - He has powers as we do?
- Certainly.Copy !req
815. But, Magnificent One...Copy !req
816. he's just one...Copy !req
817. where you are three.Copy !req
818. - Or four, if you count him twice.
- We will bring him to his knees.Copy !req
819. Wait!Copy !req
820. First, you must find him.Copy !req
821. And Lex Baby is the only
one who knows where he is.Copy !req
822. What do you want?Copy !req
823. Well, general...Copy !req
824. the world is a big place.Copy !req
825. Thank goodness...Copy !req
826. my needs are small.Copy !req
827. As it turns out, I have this
affinity for beachfront property.Copy !req
828. What do you want?Copy !req
829. Australia.Copy !req
830. Hey.Copy !req
831. Listen— Hey, come on,
where are you—? Please!Copy !req
832. Aw— Oh!Copy !req
833. Father?Copy !req
834. If you can hear me...Copy !req
835. I failed.Copy !req
836. I failed you...Copy !req
837. I failed myself...Copy !req
838. and all humanity.Copy !req
839. I've traded my birthright...Copy !req
840. for a life of submission in a world
that's now ruled by your enemies.Copy !req
841. There's nobody left
to help them now...Copy !req
842. the people of the world.Copy !req
843. Not since I...Copy !req
844. Father!Copy !req
845. Listen carefully, my son,
for we shall never speak again.Copy !req
846. if you hear me now...Copy !req
847. then you have made use
of the only means left to you:Copy !req
848. The crystal source through which
our communications begun.Copy !req
849. The circle is now complete.Copy !req
850. You have made
a dreadful mistake, Kal-El.Copy !req
851. You did this of your own free will...Copy !req
852. in spite of all I could say
to dissuade you.Copy !req
853. I, uh...Copy !req
854. Now you have returned to me
for one last chance to redeem yourself.Copy !req
855. This too finally I have anticipated,
my son.Copy !req
856. Look at me, Kal-El.Copy !req
857. Once before when you were small,
I died...Copy !req
858. while giving you a chance for life.Copy !req
859. And now, even though it will exhaust
the final energy left within me...Copy !req
860. Father, no.Copy !req
861. Look at me, Kal-El.Copy !req
862. The Kryptonian prophecy
will be at last fulfilled.Copy !req
863. The son becomes the father,
the father becomes the son.Copy !req
864. Farewell forever, Kal-El.Copy !req
865. Remember me, my son.Copy !req
866. My son.Copy !req
867. Father!Copy !req
868. Harold. Coffee, black, no sugar.Copy !req
869. Black, no sug— Yeah. Yeah.Copy !req
870. Who's paying, huh?Copy !req
871. No, no! There's three of them.
That cockamamie general...Copy !req
872. and a big truck with hair and a broad
that looks like the queen of the runway.Copy !req
873. They can fly and see through things.
Anything Superman can do, they can do.Copy !req
874. Where is he, anyway?Copy !req
875. Maybe he hasn't heard
about it yet, chief.Copy !req
876. - Maybe—
- Maybe he's just run out of guts.Copy !req
877. - No sugar. And don't call me "chief."
- He'll be here.Copy !req
878. - if there's any way at all, he'll be here.
- Yeah, he'll be here.Copy !req
879. What's going on?
I don't know.Copy !req
880. - Hey, Charlie, you feel that?
- Yeah.Copy !req
881. Sounds like an earthquake.Copy !req
882. Oh, my!Copy !req
883. It's those three.
Stop!Copy !req
884. - Oh, my God, they're here now!
- Oh, no!Copy !req
885. This is scary!Copy !req
886. Oh! Aah!Copy !req
887. You all right, chief?Copy !req
888. Hi. L...Copy !req
889. You should see the White House.
They'll be cleaning for months.Copy !req
890. Lex Luthor.Copy !req
891. Wouldn't you know it?Copy !req
892. This is the son of Jor-El?Copy !req
893. - No, but I bet you're a son of a—
- Jimmy!Copy !req
894. You promised me the son of Jor-El.Copy !req
895. Yes, Your Grace.Copy !req
896. But what I've given
you is the next best thing.Copy !req
897. You just hold on to that
little lady, and he'll be along.Copy !req
898. See, they have this relationship.Copy !req
899. She does all his public relations,
and he gives her every exclusive.Copy !req
900. They're the best of friends.
You know what I mean?Copy !req
901. What an undemanding
male this Superman must be.Copy !req
902. You could use a tuck
here and there yourself, sister.Copy !req
903. Wait!Copy !req
904. - I'm sorry!
- She lives for now.Copy !req
905. Kill the rest, starting with him.Copy !req
906. Wait. Wait, wait, wait!Copy !req
907. Wait. Wait.Copy !req
908. Don't you remember the White House?
Oval Room? We had a few laughs there.Copy !req
909. You ought to have that fixed.Copy !req
910. General...Copy !req
911. haven't you heard
of freedom of the press?Copy !req
912. - Superman!
- Superman, thank God.Copy !req
913. I mean, get him!Copy !req
914. Come to me, son of Jor-El!Copy !req
915. Kneel before Zod!Copy !req
916. Watch out. You all right?Copy !req
917. Son of Jor-El.Copy !req
918. We were beginning to
think you were a coward.Copy !req
919. I'm not a coward, Zod.Copy !req
920. It is extremely likely
you are merely a fool.Copy !req
921. Like father, like son.Copy !req
922. Look out!Copy !req
923. Then die as you deserve to!Copy !req
924. Come on, come on, Superman!
Get him!Copy !req
925. Man, this is gonna be good.Copy !req
926. Superman.Copy !req
927. - Hey, that's the chief's.
- The chief's got it.Copy !req
928. What, you hit a woman?Copy !req
929. Oh, my God! My baby!Copy !req
930. Help my baby!Copy !req
931. Thank you.Copy !req
932. This Superman is nothing of the kind.Copy !req
933. I've discovered his weakness.
Yes.Copy !req
934. He cares.Copy !req
935. He actually cares
for these Earth people.Copy !req
936. - Like pets?
- I suppose so.Copy !req
937. I'll draw his fire...Copy !req
938. with some of my own.Copy !req
939. What's happening to those cars?Copy !req
940. Get out of the way!Copy !req
941. Superman.Copy !req
942. Oh, thank you!Copy !req
943. I never thought this thing
would go the distance.Copy !req
944. No! Don't do it!Copy !req
945. The people!Copy !req
946. Throw it!Copy !req
947. Get away from there. Get away.
Let's help them out!Copy !req
948. - I got her. I got her. Don't worry.
- He's dead.Copy !req
949. Superman is dead.Copy !req
950. They've killed Superman.Copy !req
951. - He's dead.
- Let's go get them!Copy !req
952. - Come on, we'll show them!
- I know some judo. Let's go!Copy !req
953. Come on!Copy !req
954. I'm holding it, I'm holding it!Copy !req
955. What can you do if
you can't see what's happening?Copy !req
956. Hold on!
Oh, my God!Copy !req
957. You can't leave us!Copy !req
958. So he is a coward after all.Copy !req
959. He's gone.Copy !req
960. Come back, Superman!Copy !req
961. Don't leave us!Copy !req
962. He chickened out.Copy !req
963. Phony!Copy !req
964. Superman didn't even do nothing.Copy !req
965. Come on, let's go.Copy !req
966. - There they are.
- Get away from here. Jimmy.Copy !req
967. Our victory is complete.Copy !req
968. The son of Jor-El has fled.Copy !req
969. - Superman fled?
- I don't believe you.Copy !req
970. You heard him. Three against one,
you should've taken two ears and a tail.Copy !req
971. - He fled in fear of us.
- He'll be back.Copy !req
972. As long as he's alive,
he's gonna try again.Copy !req
973. - The next time, we will kill him.
- The next time?Copy !req
974. The next time?Copy !req
975. What am I gonna do with you people?Copy !req
976. I held up my end.
I delivered you the blue boy.Copy !req
977. What do I get from my triple threat?Copy !req
978. "Bow, yield, kneel."
That kind of stuff closes out a town.Copy !req
979. Why do you say this to me
when you know I will kill you for it?Copy !req
980. Kill me? Lex Luthor?Copy !req
981. Extinguish the greatest
criminal flame of our age?Copy !req
982. Eradicate the only man on earth with—Copy !req
983. Let me kill him!Copy !req
984. —Superman's address?Copy !req
985. What more do you want?
I can see the greed written on your face.Copy !req
986. A small incentive, O Fullest One.Copy !req
987. A mere bauble to jog the memory.Copy !req
988. What more?Copy !req
989. Cuba.Copy !req
990. I trust you are not wasting my time,
Lex Luthor.Copy !req
991. Of course not, Your Turbulence.Copy !req
992. Show yourself, coward!Copy !req
993. Son of a coward!Copy !req
994. I'm here, Zod.Copy !req
995. - Let Miss Lane go, step inside. We'll talk.
- No, don't, Superman!Copy !req
996. Please don't listen to him. He's just—Copy !req
997. Stop.Copy !req
998. Your powers are identical to mine.Copy !req
999. But we are three.
We could tear you limb from limb.Copy !req
1000. Do it, Your Grace.Copy !req
1001. Just grab a leg and just make a wish.Copy !req
1002. But you are victim
to another fatal weakness...Copy !req
1003. your compassion. The death of others
means more to you than your own.Copy !req
1004. Yes, with rare exceptions.Copy !req
1005. Your father condemned us to an eternal
living death. Your fate will be the same.Copy !req
1006. You will live, Kal-El, forever...Copy !req
1007. as my slave. If not, then others
will pay for your obstinate attitude.Copy !req
1008. Innocent people, millions if necessary,
beginning with this Lois person.Copy !req
1009. - Don't, Superman, don't!
- Stop it!Copy !req
1010. All right, Zod.Copy !req
1011. It's over.Copy !req
1012. Your Grace, don't believe him!
You don't know him the way that I do.Copy !req
1013. I sense the presence of Jor-El here.Copy !req
1014. We will destroy this place.Copy !req
1015. And then kill him.Copy !req
1016. Him.Copy !req
1017. Him? Me?Copy !req
1018. General, this is Lex Luthor.Copy !req
1019. Remember—?
I helped you through the tough times.Copy !req
1020. I filled your inside straight.Copy !req
1021. You came to me with nothing.
I gave you Superman.Copy !req
1022. Silence!Copy !req
1023. Well, look—Copy !req
1024. Guy's a clod.Copy !req
1025. You think you know people, right?Copy !req
1026. Promises were made,
gifts were exchanged.Copy !req
1027. I gotta hand it to you, you know.
You always told the truth.Copy !req
1028. A guy always knew
where he stood with you.Copy !req
1029. Try to get them all
into this molecule chamber here.Copy !req
1030. It takes away their powers, see...Copy !req
1031. and turns them into
ordinary human beings.Copy !req
1032. Now, if you could...Copy !req
1033. Shh. Shh.Copy !req
1034. - Don't go in there. It's a trap.
- Luthor, you poisonous snake!Copy !req
1035. That's a molecule chamber.Copy !req
1036. It makes people like
you into people like me.Copy !req
1037. - You've done well, Lex Luthor.
- I thought so.Copy !req
1038. Seize him.Copy !req
1039. - Kill her.
- No! Superman, no!Copy !req
1040. All right!
All right, leave her alone, Zod!Copy !req
1041. You win.Copy !req
1042. General, the crystal there
activates the mechanism.Copy !req
1043. Lex Luthor, ruler of Australia...Copy !req
1044. activate the machine.Copy !req
1045. With your permission.Copy !req
1046. And now, finally...Copy !req
1047. Kneel.Copy !req
1048. Take my hand...Copy !req
1049. and swear eternal loyalty to Zod.Copy !req
1050. Aah!Copy !req
1051. He switched it.Copy !req
1052. He did it to them.Copy !req
1053. The lights were on out here
while he was safe in there.Copy !req
1054. Hey, you know something?Copy !req
1055. You're a real pain in the neck!Copy !req
1056. - Are you all right?
- Uh-huh.Copy !req
1057. I knew you'd double-cross me, Luthor.
A lying weasel like you couldn't resist.Copy !req
1058. Who, me? Are you kidding?Copy !req
1059. Hey, I was with you all the
time. That was beautiful.Copy !req
1060. Did you see the way
they fell into our trap?Copy !req
1061. Too late, Luthor. Too late.Copy !req
1062. Look. Look, Superman.Copy !req
1063. I got a proposition for you.Copy !req
1064. Now, don't stop me
till you've heard this...Copy !req
1065. because I know I owe you one,
but we're in the North Pole, right?Copy !req
1066. Look, Lois—Copy !req
1067. No regrets, okay? I did it.Copy !req
1068. I got the man I loved to love me.Copy !req
1069. - Didn't I?
- Oh, yeah.Copy !req
1070. Well, okay then.
Those people need you.Copy !req
1071. Do you think I don't understand that?Copy !req
1072. We can still see each other, you know.
I mean, all the time.Copy !req
1073. But it just can't be—Copy !req
1074. Just don't forget, that's all.Copy !req
1075. Don't ever forget.Copy !req
1076. - Well, here we are.
- Home sweet home.Copy !req
1077. - See you at work in the morning.
- Mm-hm. Bright and early, huh?Copy !req
1078. - Same old Clark and the same old Lois.
- Yup.Copy !req
1079. Except... maybe I won't be
quite so mean to you from now on.Copy !req
1080. You don't have to worry.Copy !req
1081. Your secret's safe with me.Copy !req
1082. I know. I know that, Lois.Copy !req
1083. Well, there he goes, kid.Copy !req
1084. Up, up and away.Copy !req
1085. No!
No!Copy !req
1086. Hey, is Mr. White free?
On the telephone.Copy !req
1087. He's in conference at the moment.Copy !req
1088. Yeah, that's what he says.Copy !req
1089. - Give me three carbons of that.
- Hi.Copy !req
1090. It's gonna be an insert
in the paper. That's what they said.Copy !req
1091. Good morning. Hi.Copy !req
1092. Good morning, Lois. Whoops.Copy !req
1093. Uh...Copy !req
1094. - Good morning, Lois.
- Hi, Clark.Copy !req
1095. Jeepers, I have seen
some faraway looks in my time...Copy !req
1096. but with that look, you might as well
be on the North Pole.Copy !req
1097. The North Pole.Copy !req
1098. No, that's too silly.Copy !req
1099. Did you ever feel like you knew
something that was so important that...Copy !req
1100. - Whoops.
- No, you never did.Copy !req
1101. I feel like I'm sitting on the single
most important story of my career...Copy !req
1102. and I can't remember what it is.Copy !req
1103. Well, knowing you,
it must have been about Superman.Copy !req
1104. Maybe how he saved the city or
the world or saved the universe.Copy !req
1105. Clark, Clark. Listen.
Jealousy's really counterproductive.Copy !req
1106. Now, there's some things
that you can do too.Copy !req
1107. Oh, yeah?Copy !req
1108. Really? Um, like what?Copy !req
1109. Um, get us a pizza.Copy !req
1110. - A pizza. Now?
- Yeah, I'm hungry.Copy !req
1111. Actually, I don't think
Mr. White would like it if—Copy !req
1112. I'll pay for half of it, all right?Copy !req
1113. I'm going.Copy !req
1114. - Um, Lois?
- Mm?Copy !req
1115. You know, about the pizza? Um...Copy !req
1116. It's okay. I'll pay for the whole thing.Copy !req
1117. You know, you're really super.Copy !req
1118. Ah!Copy !req
1119. - Hey, Ron.
- Yeah?Copy !req
1120. Give me another
plate of this garbage.Copy !req
1121. Garbage? That's my
number-one special, Rocky.Copy !req
1122. All right. Get me some
more coffee too, will you?Copy !req
1123. Gee, that's funny. I've never
seen garbage eat garbage before.Copy !req
1124. Excuse me, sir. I think
you're sitting in my favorite seat.Copy !req
1125. Come and get it, four-eyes.Copy !req
1126. Now cool it, Rocky.Copy !req
1127. Take it easy, will you?Copy !req
1128. I just had this joint fixed.
It cost me a fortune.Copy !req
1129. Oh, God!Copy !req
1130. This order's to go.Copy !req
1131. Aah!Copy !req
1132. I'm terribly sorry
about all the damage, sir.Copy !req
1133. I've been working out.Copy !req
