1
00:00:01,509 --> 00:00:03,383
I think that's him.
2
00:00:03,553 --> 00:00:05,296
Okay, let's go.
3
00:00:13,479 --> 00:00:16,101
Move it back, please!
4
00:00:43,885 --> 00:00:47,503
Clark, pick up the pace, somewhere
between brisk walk and super-speed.
5
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,803
The star witness
testifies in 15 minutes.
6
00:00:50,016 --> 00:00:52,092
Not that I mind being
your boy Friday...
7
00:00:52,268 --> 00:00:54,724
... but I don't understand
why you need an escort.
8
00:00:54,896 --> 00:00:58,265
I don't. I just thought
a nice little courthouse field trip...
9
00:00:58,483 --> 00:01:02,563
... might reignite the journalism spark.
- Well, I hate to break it to you...
10
00:01:02,737 --> 00:01:05,738
... but my ace reporter days ended
when I left the Torch.
11
00:01:05,907 --> 00:01:09,192
All right, then consider it a much needed
get off the farm pass.
12
00:01:09,369 --> 00:01:13,201
Clark, this has been the year from hell.
That was before you broke up with Lana.
13
00:01:13,373 --> 00:01:16,077
There are only so many days
you can hole yourself up...
14
00:01:16,250 --> 00:01:19,833
... before I pull an intervention.
- Wait, I am not holed up.
15
00:01:20,129 --> 00:01:22,205
It's just, ever since I found out...
16
00:01:22,382 --> 00:01:25,916
... that Lionel knows my secret,
I've been waiting for a bomb to go off.
17
00:01:28,346 --> 00:01:31,015
Don't duck and cover yet.
I mean, for all we know...
18
00:01:31,182 --> 00:01:32,890
... he may never even light the fuse.
19
00:01:33,059 --> 00:01:35,052
This is Lionel Luthor
we're talking about.
20
00:01:52,704 --> 00:01:54,577
You okay?
21
00:01:54,956 --> 00:01:56,284
You...
22
00:01:56,499 --> 00:01:57,827
You saved my life.
23
00:01:59,627 --> 00:02:03,079
- I don't know how to thank you.
- I did what anybody else would have.
24
00:02:04,382 --> 00:02:07,418
I'm sorry, I have to go.
Thank you again, really.
25
00:02:08,261 --> 00:02:09,720
Hey.
26
00:02:09,887 --> 00:02:12,046
Now, you couldn't
do that on the farm.
27
00:02:12,223 --> 00:02:14,429
Thanks to you,
that guy's got a lease on life.
28
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,059
Nice work.
29
00:02:22,442 --> 00:02:23,984
Careful.
30
00:02:27,363 --> 00:02:29,190
Holding room checks out.
31
00:02:29,407 --> 00:02:32,028
- Witness has arrived safe and secure.
- Copy that.
32
00:02:32,201 --> 00:02:35,784
There's only one way into this room.
We're guarding it. Get your stuff on.
33
00:02:49,927 --> 00:02:52,050
Can I help you with that?
34
00:03:00,688 --> 00:03:02,930
All right, we're calling security.
35
00:03:05,109 --> 00:03:07,185
Man down.
36
00:03:08,529 --> 00:03:11,281
Man down, secure the area.
37
00:03:13,368 --> 00:03:16,452
- Man down, secure the area.
- He's not breathing.
38
00:03:16,996 --> 00:03:19,036
Call an ambulance.
39
00:04:15,388 --> 00:04:17,179
Give it up.
40
00:04:17,348 --> 00:04:19,471
Die samurai, die.
41
00:04:19,642 --> 00:04:21,267
Anyone want a piece of this?
42
00:04:22,186 --> 00:04:23,846
Take that.
43
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:27,148
Lois.
44
00:04:28,568 --> 00:04:30,810
Too late, sucka!
Yojimbo, you are mine.
45
00:04:31,029 --> 00:04:32,606
Lois.
46
00:04:35,283 --> 00:04:37,110
Aw, come on, Smallville,
you killed me.
47
00:04:37,285 --> 00:04:39,527
- Where did all this come from?
- Good question.
48
00:04:39,954 --> 00:04:42,161
I think there's a card somewhere.
49
00:04:42,749 --> 00:04:46,449
Looks like Christmas came early this
year, in Hi-Def surround sound, no less.
50
00:04:46,919 --> 00:04:48,746
The delivery guys were unloading it.
51
00:04:49,339 --> 00:04:52,375
- You win a raffle or something?
- Not that I know of.
52
00:04:54,677 --> 00:04:56,919
There you go. "clark. "
53
00:04:59,307 --> 00:05:01,383
- And I'll just get to work.
- Who's it from?
54
00:05:04,020 --> 00:05:06,641
I don't need a signature.
This is from Lionel Luthor.
55
00:05:06,814 --> 00:05:08,854
Clark, I wouldn't jump
to conclusions.
56
00:05:09,025 --> 00:05:10,816
I warned him to
stay out of our lives.
57
00:05:10,985 --> 00:05:15,149
- This is his way to buy himself back in.
- I really don't think Lionel would do this...
58
00:05:15,323 --> 00:05:17,362
... but I'll go call and find out.
59
00:05:34,092 --> 00:05:36,001
Clark, do you remember that trial...
60
00:05:36,177 --> 00:05:38,335
... that was cancelled due
to circumstances?
61
00:05:38,513 --> 00:05:41,929
The star witness was murdered
in the basement of the courthouse.
62
00:05:42,100 --> 00:05:43,973
The basement? Are there any leads?
63
00:05:44,143 --> 00:05:46,717
Nothing. And now
the prosecution has no case.
64
00:05:46,896 --> 00:05:49,517
Looks like this story has gone
from legal to lethal.
65
00:05:49,691 --> 00:05:51,932
I guess this is a bad time
to ask for a favor.
66
00:05:52,110 --> 00:05:54,435
You kidding? The times
you've saved my butt...
67
00:05:54,612 --> 00:05:57,613
... you can pull a coin from
the favor bank any time. What's up?
68
00:05:57,782 --> 00:06:00,320
Someone sent me a 50-inch plasma
with all the bells...
69
00:06:00,493 --> 00:06:02,201
... forgot to sign the gift card.
70
00:06:02,370 --> 00:06:05,537
Clark, that's not a problem.
That's winning the trifecta.
71
00:06:05,748 --> 00:06:07,290
- When's movie night?
- Never.
72
00:06:07,458 --> 00:06:10,128
- I sent it all back.
- No, you didn't.
73
00:06:10,336 --> 00:06:12,958
Yes, I did. I'm not gonna
accept a gift like that...
74
00:06:13,172 --> 00:06:14,916
... when I don't know who it's from.
75
00:06:15,133 --> 00:06:18,134
I called Metro Plasma.
They won't give me any information.
76
00:06:18,302 --> 00:06:20,794
- Can you call them, get in their records?
- Sure.
77
00:06:21,180 --> 00:06:23,754
It sounds like a move
straight from Lionel Luthor.
78
00:06:23,975 --> 00:06:28,637
That's the thing that I thought. My mom
called. He had nothing to do with it.
79
00:06:28,855 --> 00:06:31,428
It looks like your secret
Santa remains anonymous.
80
00:06:33,526 --> 00:06:36,147
He paid in cash. If not Lionel,
what about Luthor Jr?
81
00:06:36,404 --> 00:06:39,358
Lex? Why would he
send me a home theater system?
82
00:06:39,782 --> 00:06:41,241
Maybe he's feeling guilty.
83
00:06:41,743 --> 00:06:43,237
Guilty about what?
84
00:06:44,454 --> 00:06:47,823
I don't know. I mean he hasn't exactly
been the best friend lately.
85
00:06:47,999 --> 00:06:51,866
So he also has been known to try
and win you over with expensive toys.
86
00:06:53,338 --> 00:06:56,255
He did say he wanted
to try to find some common ground.
87
00:07:00,386 --> 00:07:02,426
I'm gonna go talk to him.
88
00:07:08,019 --> 00:07:10,936
What's the deal, senator?
Do you not like kids?
89
00:07:11,105 --> 00:07:13,727
Because a no-vote
on Senator Kent's bill is like...
90
00:07:13,900 --> 00:07:16,473
... ripping the textbooks
out of their sticky fingers.
91
00:07:16,944 --> 00:07:18,688
Thank you, senator.
92
00:07:19,697 --> 00:07:21,357
Bye, now.
93
00:07:21,699 --> 00:07:23,324
Yes.
94
00:07:28,206 --> 00:07:31,622
Official warning:
I'm a third-degree black belt.
95
00:07:31,793 --> 00:07:34,331
That means I can't be liable
for any funeral costs.
96
00:07:34,629 --> 00:07:37,499
Go easy on me.
I'm a friend of clark's.
97
00:07:37,715 --> 00:07:39,209
Are you his girlfriend?
98
00:07:39,467 --> 00:07:41,210
Not in this lifetime.
99
00:07:42,470 --> 00:07:44,593
I'm Lois. Lois Lane.
100
00:07:45,139 --> 00:07:47,298
Pleasure to meet you, Lois.
101
00:07:48,476 --> 00:07:51,049
- I'm Graham.
- Hey.
102
00:07:52,021 --> 00:07:54,228
So where's the plasma?
103
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:57,441
So you're the one who sent over
all the high-tech booty.
104
00:07:57,610 --> 00:08:01,109
You know, I was gonna keep it.
Mr. L-can't-take-candy-from-strangers...
105
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,606
... took every thing back this morning.
106
00:08:05,243 --> 00:08:08,197
- That's odd.
- That's clark Kent.
107
00:08:08,997 --> 00:08:11,701
Can I ask why you're playing
Daddy Warbucks with the guy?
108
00:08:11,874 --> 00:08:14,875
Because in my world, friends
don't give friends $20,000 toys.
109
00:08:16,170 --> 00:08:17,962
In my world they do.
110
00:08:18,131 --> 00:08:21,665
- Is Clark around?
- No, not at the moment.
111
00:08:21,843 --> 00:08:25,591
Of course, he never stays
gone for too long, so...
112
00:08:25,763 --> 00:08:28,337
If you wanna hang out,
you're more than welcome.
113
00:08:30,476 --> 00:08:32,184
I think I will.
114
00:08:51,039 --> 00:08:53,577
I see you stepped up your security.
115
00:08:57,170 --> 00:09:00,289
I had to make a pretty good case
before they'd let me in.
116
00:09:00,506 --> 00:09:03,424
You're not an easy person
to say no to.
117
00:09:04,135 --> 00:09:05,926
I couldn't wait any longer.
118
00:09:06,095 --> 00:09:07,637
I've been sitting by the phone.
119
00:09:11,184 --> 00:09:13,223
What'd you find out in D. C?
120
00:09:15,563 --> 00:09:18,350
A lot of plausible deniability.
121
00:09:18,524 --> 00:09:20,398
From the Pentagon
to the White House...
122
00:09:20,568 --> 00:09:24,067
... no one can verify
the existence of Milton Fine.
123
00:09:24,614 --> 00:09:26,571
He works in a branch
of the government.
124
00:09:26,741 --> 00:09:28,698
Maybe it's more covert than we think.
125
00:09:28,910 --> 00:09:30,784
If he even works there at all.
126
00:09:30,995 --> 00:09:34,660
Those classified documents
he gave you, you think they're a forgery?
127
00:09:34,916 --> 00:09:38,616
No, I had them authenticated,
but that doesn't mean anything.
128
00:09:38,878 --> 00:09:41,451
We have no idea
who this guy really is.
129
00:09:41,631 --> 00:09:43,505
No. No.
130
00:09:44,801 --> 00:09:47,718
Don't worry. I'll find out.
131
00:09:52,725 --> 00:09:55,430
You know, I was only gone
for a week...
132
00:09:56,020 --> 00:09:58,096
... but I actually got a little homesick.
133
00:09:59,565 --> 00:10:02,685
What's so special about Smallville?
134
00:10:03,486 --> 00:10:05,395
Oh, I don't know.
135
00:10:06,155 --> 00:10:07,733
Cows.
136
00:10:07,907 --> 00:10:11,608
Cornfields. Wide open spaces.
137
00:10:14,038 --> 00:10:16,114
I missed you too.
138
00:10:18,835 --> 00:10:21,123
You have no idea.
139
00:11:12,013 --> 00:11:13,175
Hey.
140
00:11:13,765 --> 00:11:15,674
Riddle me this:
How does an assassin...
141
00:11:15,850 --> 00:11:18,258
... get in a completely
sealed room unseen.
142
00:11:18,478 --> 00:11:19,936
You knew, didn't you?
143
00:11:20,438 --> 00:11:22,098
No, that's why it's a riddle.
144
00:11:22,315 --> 00:11:24,189
I asked you how Lana was doing...
145
00:11:24,359 --> 00:11:27,063
... and you avoided
the subject like the plague.
146
00:11:28,655 --> 00:11:31,062
You knew about her and Lex.
147
00:11:32,617 --> 00:11:34,942
I'm sorry, clark.
148
00:11:35,119 --> 00:11:37,741
But I didn't think
it was my place to get involved.
149
00:11:37,955 --> 00:11:39,782
You're supposed to be my friend.
150
00:11:40,416 --> 00:11:42,409
- I am your friend.
- You are?
151
00:11:42,585 --> 00:11:45,420
- Then why didn't you say anything?
- I'm Lana's friend too.
152
00:11:45,588 --> 00:11:47,462
And she asked me
to keep it a secret.
153
00:11:47,632 --> 00:11:49,589
I thought you of all people
would respect that.
154
00:11:49,759 --> 00:11:52,630
You know how dangerous Lex is.
Any friend of Lana's...
155
00:11:52,804 --> 00:11:56,007
... would never let her get involved.
- I wasn't jumping for joy.
156
00:11:56,557 --> 00:11:58,965
But Lana's a big girl.
Where are you going?
157
00:12:00,186 --> 00:12:02,060
Clark, where are you going?
158
00:12:02,230 --> 00:12:04,768
Lana has no idea
what she's getting herself into.
159
00:12:04,982 --> 00:12:06,940
Let me remind you that you broke up.
160
00:12:07,110 --> 00:12:10,313
That means Lana can date whoever
she wants without your permission.
161
00:12:10,530 --> 00:12:12,606
I know. But I still care about her.
162
00:12:12,782 --> 00:12:15,617
And I don't wanna just stand by
and watch her get hurt.
163
00:12:16,119 --> 00:12:20,068
Look, I hate to be the one to say this,
but you don't have a choice.
164
00:12:41,269 --> 00:12:43,308
Let me guess...
165
00:12:48,317 --> 00:12:52,101
... bad breakup?
I've had a few of those.
166
00:12:52,322 --> 00:12:54,231
You're the guy from the courthouse.
167
00:12:54,449 --> 00:12:55,859
You're a tough man to please.
168
00:12:56,034 --> 00:12:58,192
What's the problem,
you don't watch Tv?
169
00:12:59,829 --> 00:13:03,032
- Wait, you sent that?
- You saved my life.
170
00:13:03,207 --> 00:13:07,585
If it wasn't for you, I'd be in a morgue
with tire tracks across my forehead.
171
00:13:07,754 --> 00:13:09,793
It's the least I can do.
172
00:13:12,842 --> 00:13:15,000
How did you find me?
I never told you my name.
173
00:13:15,178 --> 00:13:17,384
That press pass around your neck did.
174
00:13:17,555 --> 00:13:20,473
The fact that I'm familiar
with the area led me straight here.
175
00:13:21,100 --> 00:13:24,303
- Oh, you're from Smallville.
- Drove through last year on business.
176
00:13:24,479 --> 00:13:27,433
Clark, if the big screen's
not your thing, what is?
177
00:13:27,732 --> 00:13:30,567
Help me out here. There must
be something I can do for you.
178
00:13:31,986 --> 00:13:35,320
Your thank you is fine.
I appreciate the gesture.
179
00:13:35,490 --> 00:13:37,482
You don't need to repay me.
180
00:13:38,034 --> 00:13:39,861
This isn't about you, clark.
181
00:13:40,036 --> 00:13:41,495
It's about me.
182
00:13:41,663 --> 00:13:44,284
I don't ever like to be in debt.
And the fact is...
183
00:13:44,457 --> 00:13:46,366
... I owe you my life.
184
00:13:46,834 --> 00:13:48,163
Let me buy you dinner.
185
00:13:48,378 --> 00:13:52,541
- I'm staying in Metropolis. I'll take you.
- Thanks, but really, I'm okay.
186
00:13:52,924 --> 00:13:55,960
You're hanging out in a barn alone...
187
00:13:56,135 --> 00:13:58,175
... in the middle of nowhere.
188
00:13:58,471 --> 00:14:00,760
That doesn't seem too okay to me.
189
00:14:14,821 --> 00:14:17,525
Hey, come on, over here.
190
00:14:18,950 --> 00:14:21,405
Looks like the chicken
finally flew the coop.
191
00:14:21,577 --> 00:14:23,321
Getting worried about you, man.
192
00:14:23,496 --> 00:14:26,201
We were going to dinner.
What's going on with the party?
193
00:14:26,374 --> 00:14:27,952
Made a killing the other day...
194
00:14:28,126 --> 00:14:30,118
... and it's all thanks to clark Kent.
195
00:14:30,294 --> 00:14:33,794
- You thirsty? How about a Mojito?
- No, thanks, I'm good.
196
00:14:33,965 --> 00:14:36,171
- What exactly do you do?
- I'm a headhunter.
197
00:14:36,342 --> 00:14:39,628
I travel the world tracking
people down, you know, for jobs.
198
00:14:39,804 --> 00:14:41,713
I'd like you to meet my date.
199
00:14:42,598 --> 00:14:44,887
Hey, good for you.
200
00:14:45,059 --> 00:14:46,719
Lois.
201
00:14:47,353 --> 00:14:49,512
- Smallville.
- We met out at your house.
202
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,978
I couldn't disappear
without seeing her again.
203
00:14:53,901 --> 00:14:55,894
Lois, can I talk to you for a second?
204
00:14:56,112 --> 00:14:58,568
- How about later?
- It's fine.
205
00:14:58,781 --> 00:15:00,525
I'll be right back.
206
00:15:02,035 --> 00:15:04,360
- What are you doing?
- What are you doing? Lois.
207
00:15:04,579 --> 00:15:06,951
Look, Clark, I happen
to actually like this guy.
208
00:15:07,123 --> 00:15:09,365
So do me one favor and
pretend not to know me.
209
00:15:09,542 --> 00:15:10,870
- Lois...
- No.
210
00:15:14,464 --> 00:15:17,749
Hey, pal, you gotta check out
the view from the balcony.
211
00:15:18,718 --> 00:15:20,924
You know, I'm not crazy
about heights.
212
00:15:21,095 --> 00:15:23,669
Trust me. It's worth it.
213
00:15:23,931 --> 00:15:25,889
Oh, good, I can make it.
214
00:15:26,059 --> 00:15:28,550
It's gotten pretty big right now.
215
00:15:38,654 --> 00:15:40,731
Beautiful night, huh?
216
00:15:43,576 --> 00:15:44,951
Yeah, it is.
217
00:15:46,287 --> 00:15:48,031
I'm Gia.
218
00:15:48,539 --> 00:15:50,662
Hi, Gia.
219
00:15:51,793 --> 00:15:55,126
- I'm clark.
- I know.
220
00:15:55,630 --> 00:15:57,706
Guy like you...
221
00:15:57,882 --> 00:16:00,040
You must have a girlfriend, huh?
222
00:16:00,885 --> 00:16:03,423
Me? I...
223
00:16:04,430 --> 00:16:05,462
... don't.
224
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,549
Do you wanna take a tour?
225
00:16:08,017 --> 00:16:12,181
I hear the view from the bedroom
is even better than the balcony.
226
00:16:23,616 --> 00:16:25,360
What's wrong?
227
00:16:25,868 --> 00:16:27,826
I don't even know you.
228
00:16:28,997 --> 00:16:31,073
That's okay.
229
00:16:32,583 --> 00:16:35,584
Graham warned me you might be shy.
230
00:16:36,921 --> 00:16:38,581
Graham?
231
00:16:39,799 --> 00:16:42,883
He wants you to have a good time.
232
00:16:50,518 --> 00:16:53,305
I'm sorry, I think
there's a misunderstanding.
233
00:16:55,106 --> 00:16:56,814
I should go.
234
00:17:01,696 --> 00:17:04,068
Whoa, whoa, what happened?
Where are you going?
235
00:17:04,574 --> 00:17:07,859
Look, if you wanna do me a favor,
consider us even. I gotta go.
236
00:17:08,036 --> 00:17:09,578
Look, Clark, I apologize.
237
00:17:09,746 --> 00:17:12,865
I thought Gia was just what
the doctor ordered. But I was wrong.
238
00:17:13,041 --> 00:17:15,614
You're a lot deeper
than I gave you credit for.
239
00:17:15,793 --> 00:17:18,119
You must have really loved your ex.
240
00:17:19,005 --> 00:17:21,543
What's the problem?
Let's get you two back together.
241
00:17:21,758 --> 00:17:25,043
- It's a little late for that.
- It's never too late.
242
00:17:25,261 --> 00:17:27,669
It is when she's already
with someone else.
243
00:17:27,972 --> 00:17:30,380
That might make it difficult
but not impossible.
244
00:17:30,558 --> 00:17:33,678
- Who's the lucky bastard?
- Someone I used to call my friend.
245
00:17:36,356 --> 00:17:38,811
That's not crossing the line.
246
00:17:39,650 --> 00:17:41,109
That's just plain wrong.
247
00:17:41,319 --> 00:17:44,688
Yeah, well, if you knew Lex Luthor
you wouldn't be surprised.
248
00:17:45,490 --> 00:17:48,823
That billionaire might be with her now.
But don't lose faith, clark.
249
00:17:49,118 --> 00:17:52,238
If it's meant to be, things have
a way of working themselves out.
250
00:17:53,623 --> 00:17:56,244
- Well, I hope you're right.
- I know I am.
251
00:17:56,668 --> 00:17:58,577
I'm always right.
252
00:18:06,552 --> 00:18:09,008
Rest assured, Fine, we're close.
253
00:18:09,180 --> 00:18:12,763
Viruses are being genetically
spliced as we speak.
254
00:18:53,433 --> 00:18:55,342
Lex!
255
00:19:03,609 --> 00:19:05,602
Help! Help, please!
256
00:19:07,071 --> 00:19:09,278
Call an ambulance. Hurry.
257
00:19:11,492 --> 00:19:12,655
Lex...
258
00:19:12,827 --> 00:19:14,985
... it's gonna be okay.
259
00:20:04,837 --> 00:20:07,672
Chloe called me.
She told me what happened.
260
00:20:09,509 --> 00:20:11,336
How's he doing?
261
00:20:12,387 --> 00:20:14,426
Luckily, his trachea didn't collapse.
262
00:20:14,597 --> 00:20:17,005
And the doctor sedated him
for the pain.
263
00:20:17,850 --> 00:20:21,634
- Where's Lionel?
- Lionel's on his way from Singapore.
264
00:20:22,438 --> 00:20:25,724
You're a good friend
for staying here with him like this.
265
00:20:31,239 --> 00:20:34,193
Someone should be with him
when he wakes up.
266
00:20:35,535 --> 00:20:37,029
Yeah...
267
00:20:37,203 --> 00:20:38,911
... of course.
268
00:20:42,291 --> 00:20:43,869
Do they know who did this?
269
00:20:44,502 --> 00:20:46,791
I gave them a full description.
270
00:20:47,005 --> 00:20:48,629
You were there when it happened?
271
00:20:48,798 --> 00:20:52,712
I was returning some books
and I walked in on the attack.
272
00:20:58,725 --> 00:21:00,135
What does the guy look like?
273
00:21:01,185 --> 00:21:02,977
Dark hair, dark eyes.
274
00:21:03,146 --> 00:21:06,645
About six feet tall.
Was wearing a black trench coat.
275
00:21:09,193 --> 00:21:11,566
Clark, he seemed
to vanish into thin air.
276
00:21:26,794 --> 00:21:28,419
Quite a sweet tooth
you got there.
277
00:21:29,047 --> 00:21:31,253
My dentist would agree.
278
00:21:32,133 --> 00:21:34,754
- I thought you were heading out.
- I was.
279
00:21:34,927 --> 00:21:38,343
But I couldn't get a certain
someone out of my mind...
280
00:21:38,514 --> 00:21:42,464
... someone with a beautiful smile
and apparently a lot of cavities.
281
00:21:43,353 --> 00:21:46,307
Look, if you think I'm blushing,
I'm just a little sunburned.
282
00:21:46,481 --> 00:21:49,351
Well, if you're not too busy
applying the aloe vera...
283
00:21:49,525 --> 00:21:51,399
... you wanna go
see Coldplay with me?
284
00:21:51,903 --> 00:21:55,069
Tonight? Wow, they're
playing in Metropolis?
285
00:21:55,448 --> 00:21:58,235
Actually, Chicago. I chartered a jet.
286
00:21:58,409 --> 00:22:00,532
We'll have dinner on it.
You like Italian?
287
00:22:00,953 --> 00:22:04,737
Graham, if you wanna go out, you
don't have to play the jet-setter card.
288
00:22:06,542 --> 00:22:08,001
It's not a card.
289
00:22:08,169 --> 00:22:09,497
It's a reality.
290
00:22:09,671 --> 00:22:12,244
I work for large corporations
that take care of me.
291
00:22:13,383 --> 00:22:15,174
I should think about getting a job...
292
00:22:15,343 --> 00:22:17,668
... in the whole corporate
headhunting business.
293
00:22:17,845 --> 00:22:20,004
- Sounds like a load of fun.
- It is.
294
00:22:20,306 --> 00:22:22,844
But it can get a little cutthroat.
295
00:22:23,017 --> 00:22:24,809
So, what do you say?
296
00:22:25,978 --> 00:22:30,854
Look, I love jetting off to Coldplay
concerts like the next girl, but really...
297
00:22:31,025 --> 00:22:34,857
... I'm just as happy going down to Jo's
for some Foggybottom burgers.
298
00:22:35,029 --> 00:22:36,737
Then I'll tell you what.
299
00:22:37,115 --> 00:22:39,570
We'll have Foggybottom burgers
on the plane.
300
00:22:40,785 --> 00:22:42,363
Pick you up at 6?
301
00:22:43,996 --> 00:22:45,574
I'll be wearing
my glass slippers.
302
00:23:08,938 --> 00:23:11,097
Afraid the party's over.
303
00:23:11,733 --> 00:23:14,899
Clark, you know Lois well.
Is she a candy or flowers kind of girl?
304
00:23:15,069 --> 00:23:17,026
You tried to kill Lex.
305
00:23:18,197 --> 00:23:19,905
Me? Why would I do that?
306
00:23:20,116 --> 00:23:23,033
You have some sick idea
you'd be doing me a favor.
307
00:23:23,411 --> 00:23:24,822
Well...
308
00:23:25,246 --> 00:23:26,954
... you do have to admit...
309
00:23:27,165 --> 00:23:30,284
... if Lex was out of the picture
and Lana was as free as a bird...
310
00:23:30,793 --> 00:23:32,453
I'm taking you to the police.
311
00:23:41,846 --> 00:23:44,633
I guess I'm not the only one
who's got a little secret.
312
00:23:52,523 --> 00:23:55,857
If your meteor-challenged friend
tried to kill Lex to repay a favor...
313
00:23:56,027 --> 00:23:58,482
... it's not the first time
he's murdered someone.
314
00:23:58,654 --> 00:24:00,528
In fact, he might even be
the Chameleon.
315
00:24:01,032 --> 00:24:02,360
Who's the chameleon?
316
00:24:02,992 --> 00:24:05,697
Hitman for hire.
Number eight on the FBI's Top 40...
317
00:24:05,870 --> 00:24:07,993
... and climbing the charts.
318
00:24:08,373 --> 00:24:11,327
He's also the prime suspect
for the courthouse murder.
319
00:24:11,501 --> 00:24:13,043
Which was after I saved Graham.
320
00:24:14,879 --> 00:24:16,955
His trademark
is getting to his victims...
321
00:24:17,131 --> 00:24:18,625
... in highly secure locations.
322
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,128
He leaves no prints...
323
00:24:20,343 --> 00:24:24,175
... no images on surveillance cameras,
and no clues.
324
00:24:24,347 --> 00:24:27,467
Meteor power would explain it.
He said he'd been in Smallville.
325
00:24:29,310 --> 00:24:33,390
Well, unfortunately, there's no record of
camouflage power on the Wall of Weird.
326
00:24:33,564 --> 00:24:35,853
And the name Graham Garrett
didn't get any hits.
327
00:24:36,025 --> 00:24:37,769
This guy's totally off the grid.
328
00:24:38,152 --> 00:24:40,643
If I hadn't saved him,
that witness would be alive...
329
00:24:40,822 --> 00:24:42,980
... and Lex wouldn't be
in the hospital.
330
00:24:43,157 --> 00:24:45,648
- I gotta stop him.
- Well, it's easier said than done.
331
00:24:45,827 --> 00:24:48,744
When you're a wanted man,
invisibility really comes in handy.
332
00:24:48,913 --> 00:24:53,207
Every law enforcement agency
has been after him for the last year.
333
00:24:53,418 --> 00:24:55,244
I'm no typical
law enforcement agency.
334
00:24:55,420 --> 00:24:57,293
Clark, don't get too cocky.
335
00:24:57,588 --> 00:25:01,752
Not only does this guy know your power,
he could very well know your weakness.
336
00:25:01,926 --> 00:25:04,002
How would he know
about the meteor rocks?
337
00:25:04,178 --> 00:25:06,385
Clark, he's the ultimate
fly on the wall.
338
00:25:06,597 --> 00:25:09,219
And he's buzzing over to the Talon
later on tonight...
339
00:25:09,392 --> 00:25:10,851
... for his date with Lois.
340
00:25:11,060 --> 00:25:12,554
I gotta call and warn her.
341
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,503
Hello?
342
00:27:04,298 --> 00:27:06,421
What are you doing here?
343
00:27:06,592 --> 00:27:08,881
Lois, I've been calling,
knocking on the door.
344
00:27:09,053 --> 00:27:11,888
- How long have you been in there?
- About an hour and a half.
345
00:27:12,056 --> 00:27:14,096
- What?
- Hey.
346
00:27:14,308 --> 00:27:16,016
You weren't in my bathroom,
were you?
347
00:27:16,185 --> 00:27:17,845
I just walked in the apartment.
348
00:27:18,479 --> 00:27:21,017
That's weird. I could've sworn
someone was in there.
349
00:27:22,150 --> 00:27:26,017
- Graham.
- You're blaming Graham? It's pathetic.
350
00:27:26,195 --> 00:27:28,900
- Lf you see him, stay away.
- Why do you feel the need...
351
00:27:29,073 --> 00:27:30,982
... to lob a grenade at every guy I date?
352
00:27:31,242 --> 00:27:32,736
Quiet.
353
00:27:36,581 --> 00:27:38,075
He's here.
354
00:28:13,326 --> 00:28:15,615
Amazing what you can learn
as a fly on the wall.
355
00:28:15,995 --> 00:28:19,364
These meteors that fell from the sky
the day I drove through town...
356
00:28:19,582 --> 00:28:20,827
... they might hurt you...
357
00:28:21,334 --> 00:28:24,169
... but they gave me the greatest life
I could ever ask for.
358
00:28:24,379 --> 00:28:26,585
You were in Smallville
the day of the shower?
359
00:28:26,798 --> 00:28:28,790
Luckiest day of my life.
360
00:28:29,092 --> 00:28:31,250
Think using your power
to be a hero's a rush?
361
00:28:31,803 --> 00:28:33,380
Nothing beats using them to kill.
362
00:28:33,596 --> 00:28:35,304
I saved your life.
363
00:28:35,973 --> 00:28:37,681
You should have taken the plasma.
364
00:28:38,309 --> 00:28:40,883
Now that my identity's in jeopardy,
I have no choice.
365
00:28:41,229 --> 00:28:44,764
I have to get rid of you, Lex
and Lana.
366
00:28:44,982 --> 00:28:47,983
- No.
- They saw who I was, Clark.
367
00:28:48,528 --> 00:28:50,485
In my work,
you don't leave loose ends.
368
00:28:50,655 --> 00:28:52,482
You'll never get away with it.
369
00:28:52,699 --> 00:28:54,193
I always do.
370
00:29:15,346 --> 00:29:16,805
Hey.
371
00:29:18,182 --> 00:29:20,092
You're not supposed to talk.
372
00:29:20,476 --> 00:29:22,932
I'm not supposed to
do a lot of things.
373
00:29:25,773 --> 00:29:27,517
Did they catch the guy?
374
00:29:27,692 --> 00:29:29,269
No, not yet.
375
00:29:29,569 --> 00:29:31,478
But they're going to.
376
00:29:32,321 --> 00:29:34,813
Lex, I don't understand
who would want to do this.
377
00:29:35,033 --> 00:29:36,824
Pick a number.
378
00:29:37,535 --> 00:29:40,986
There are a lot of people who want
to see me breathe my last breath.
379
00:29:41,664 --> 00:29:44,369
But I'm not going to
make it easy for them.
380
00:29:46,794 --> 00:29:49,285
I have too much to live for.
381
00:29:54,427 --> 00:29:55,886
Thanks for being here.
382
00:29:57,096 --> 00:30:01,557
As you can see, there's not exactly
a... crowd of well wishers...
383
00:30:01,726 --> 00:30:04,133
... knocking down the door
to be at my bedside.
384
00:30:04,312 --> 00:30:07,847
Actually, I wasn't your only visitor.
385
00:30:08,399 --> 00:30:10,392
Clark stopped by earlier.
386
00:30:11,402 --> 00:30:12,731
Really?
387
00:30:13,946 --> 00:30:15,489
Yeah.
388
00:30:19,369 --> 00:30:21,942
It's too bad it takes
a near-death experience...
389
00:30:22,121 --> 00:30:23,829
... to bring old friends together.
390
00:30:26,793 --> 00:30:28,785
Did you tell him about us?
391
00:30:32,632 --> 00:30:34,755
I don't owe clark anything, Lex.
392
00:30:34,926 --> 00:30:36,586
Especially the truth.
393
00:30:36,886 --> 00:30:39,258
I know you're angry at him.
394
00:30:39,555 --> 00:30:43,885
- But he deserves a modicum of respect.
- This isn't about anger.
395
00:30:44,977 --> 00:30:47,931
I'll tell him when I'm ready,
on my own terms.
396
00:30:48,106 --> 00:30:50,063
Lana, don't let him find out...
397
00:30:50,233 --> 00:30:52,272
... from someone else first.
398
00:31:03,579 --> 00:31:05,738
Lois! Hey. Where's clark?
399
00:31:05,957 --> 00:31:08,708
No clue. He just busted in here,
warned me about Graham...
400
00:31:08,876 --> 00:31:10,501
... and took off.
- Any idea where?
401
00:31:10,712 --> 00:31:12,372
I wasn't exactly paying attention.
402
00:31:12,547 --> 00:31:15,216
To be honest,
I am starting to get a little tired...
403
00:31:15,383 --> 00:31:19,712
... of him thinking I need his approval
just to go on a simple date.
404
00:31:19,887 --> 00:31:22,557
Can you tell me why he's obsessed
with my love life?
405
00:31:22,765 --> 00:31:24,224
Lois...
406
00:31:24,392 --> 00:31:26,100
... Graham's a killer.
407
00:31:26,310 --> 00:31:28,683
A professional hitman.
408
00:31:29,605 --> 00:31:33,057
- Of course he is.
- We need to find Clark.
409
00:31:36,070 --> 00:31:38,608
Clark! Clark!
410
00:31:38,781 --> 00:31:41,070
Waitress said he ran out back.
He can't be far.
411
00:31:41,284 --> 00:31:43,075
You'd be surprised.
412
00:31:45,997 --> 00:31:48,203
Hey, Smallville!
413
00:31:53,796 --> 00:31:55,456
Clark?
414
00:31:58,176 --> 00:32:00,252
- Clark?
- Clark?
415
00:32:03,431 --> 00:32:06,218
- Smallville!
- Oh, my God.
416
00:32:06,434 --> 00:32:07,976
Oh, my God.
417
00:32:08,144 --> 00:32:09,769
Oh, God. Jesus.
418
00:32:09,937 --> 00:32:12,345
Oh, my... Clark! Clark!
419
00:32:13,858 --> 00:32:15,436
Damn it.
420
00:32:17,445 --> 00:32:19,023
Come on, Clark.
421
00:32:19,739 --> 00:32:21,150
- Hey, are you okay?
- Wake up.
422
00:32:21,366 --> 00:32:22,943
Clark, wake up.
423
00:32:26,454 --> 00:32:28,245
He's going after Lex and Lana.
424
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:58,819
Is everything okay?
425
00:33:01,489 --> 00:33:02,948
Yeah.
426
00:33:04,075 --> 00:33:06,945
I just thought
you were somebody else.
427
00:33:07,161 --> 00:33:08,905
It's just me...
428
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,369
... bringing you a little comfort.
429
00:33:16,713 --> 00:33:19,879
I thought you'd prefer these
to the uncomfortable hospital garb.
430
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,424
They're perfect.
431
00:33:34,313 --> 00:33:36,057
- Lex?
- Lana...
432
00:33:36,232 --> 00:33:38,272
- What's happening?
... get behind me.
433
00:34:23,780 --> 00:34:25,523
Lana, run. Run! Go!
434
00:34:52,016 --> 00:34:54,009
You saved my life.
435
00:35:20,002 --> 00:35:22,291
- Good morning, senator.
- Hi.
436
00:35:23,548 --> 00:35:25,339
Good news.
437
00:35:25,508 --> 00:35:28,758
- You have Senator Wickman's vote.
- That's great, Lois.
438
00:35:29,095 --> 00:35:31,764
So how are you?
Clark told me what happened.
439
00:35:32,557 --> 00:35:33,885
Me? I'm fine.
440
00:35:34,851 --> 00:35:37,424
Getting swept off my feet
by a notorious hitman...
441
00:35:37,603 --> 00:35:40,273
... is just my way of living
la vida loca.
442
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,191
There's no way you could have
known the truth about him.
443
00:35:43,359 --> 00:35:47,108
Maybe. But it does confirm
a very disturbing trend in my life.
444
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,771
And as much as I'd like to deny it...
445
00:35:50,033 --> 00:35:53,199
... I seem to be a magnet for guys
on America 's Most Wanted.
446
00:35:53,411 --> 00:35:55,700
Oh, I don't believe that.
447
00:35:55,872 --> 00:35:58,707
Trust me, you don't wanna
see the rap sheets.
448
00:36:01,127 --> 00:36:03,700
Why can't I meet a decent guy
from a decent family...
449
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,501
... who happens not to be
a psychopath?
450
00:36:07,133 --> 00:36:09,090
Oh, Lois.
451
00:36:14,223 --> 00:36:15,552
You know...
452
00:36:15,767 --> 00:36:17,142
... when I was your age...
453
00:36:17,310 --> 00:36:20,264
... I wasn't dating
Prince Charmings either.
454
00:36:21,064 --> 00:36:23,733
- Really?
- Yeah.
455
00:36:23,983 --> 00:36:26,901
I used to attract the dark,
mysterious type too.
456
00:36:27,070 --> 00:36:28,612
Until I met Jonathan.
457
00:36:30,198 --> 00:36:32,190
See, what worries me is that...
458
00:36:32,367 --> 00:36:35,451
... when my Jonathan finally does
come around...
459
00:36:35,620 --> 00:36:38,574
... I'll be looking the other way
and I'll miss him completely.
460
00:36:40,500 --> 00:36:43,251
Well, you have to keep
a closer watch.
461
00:36:44,003 --> 00:36:47,835
You know, I think we go through
these bad relationships for a reason.
462
00:36:48,007 --> 00:36:52,005
Well, if there's a good reason for all the
pain and aggravation, I'm dying to know.
463
00:36:53,221 --> 00:36:56,340
Maybe you have to get through
all the wrong men...
464
00:36:56,516 --> 00:36:59,185
... so you can recognize the right one.
465
00:37:21,249 --> 00:37:23,954
Congratulations on your
first front-page byline.
466
00:37:24,168 --> 00:37:26,125
Yeah, and you deserve all the credit.
467
00:37:26,295 --> 00:37:27,873
Or the blame.
468
00:37:28,047 --> 00:37:31,712
If saving strangers gets people killed,
it's not the business I wanna be in.
469
00:37:31,884 --> 00:37:34,126
Do you have a choice?
I'm nowhere near super...
470
00:37:34,303 --> 00:37:36,794
... but if I see someone drowning,
I'll throw a rope.
471
00:37:36,973 --> 00:37:39,464
And what if that person's
a killer, Chloe?
472
00:37:39,642 --> 00:37:41,848
What if the world would actually
be better off?
473
00:37:42,228 --> 00:37:44,849
That's still...
That's not your choice to make.
474
00:37:45,023 --> 00:37:47,727
I mean, ask a doctor,
or a firefighter...
475
00:37:47,900 --> 00:37:49,560
... or anyone in the hero business.
476
00:37:49,736 --> 00:37:52,191
You save first
and you ask questions later.
477
00:37:52,405 --> 00:37:55,074
Yeah. I guess you're right.
478
00:37:55,491 --> 00:37:57,484
It's just not always that easy.
479
00:37:58,036 --> 00:38:01,369
Especially when the person you're saving
is Lex Luthor.
480
00:38:04,417 --> 00:38:06,623
I should never have questioned
your friendship.
481
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,542
You were angry. And I understand.
482
00:38:10,715 --> 00:38:15,128
It's not a walk in the park to see the one
you love in the arms of someone else.
483
00:38:19,307 --> 00:38:21,845
Of all the people in the world,
why Lex?
484
00:38:22,351 --> 00:38:25,269
Just like you can't pick and choose
the people you save...
485
00:38:25,438 --> 00:38:28,937
... you can't control who your
ex-girlfriend dates. That's the way it is.
486
00:38:32,153 --> 00:38:34,774
You have no idea how hard it was
to see them like that.
487
00:38:38,076 --> 00:38:40,152
It's like I couldn't breathe.
488
00:38:44,248 --> 00:38:46,870
I'm sorry you had to
find out that way.
489
00:38:47,043 --> 00:38:49,581
I know how much it must have hurt.
490
00:38:50,088 --> 00:38:52,413
But you know, Lana's moved on.
491
00:38:53,091 --> 00:38:56,294
Maybe it's time you started
doing the same thing.
492
00:39:21,494 --> 00:39:23,451
I thought you loved that telescope.
493
00:39:26,082 --> 00:39:27,706
I did.
494
00:39:28,918 --> 00:39:30,958
Doesn't work anymore.
495
00:39:35,216 --> 00:39:37,921
Lex got out of the hospital today.
496
00:39:38,094 --> 00:39:39,754
Well, that's great.
497
00:39:40,596 --> 00:39:42,423
He's a lucky guy.
498
00:39:42,598 --> 00:39:45,054
Clark, when
you and I were together...
499
00:39:45,226 --> 00:39:48,725
... nothing bothered me more than when
you were less than honest with me.
500
00:39:48,896 --> 00:39:50,936
And I don't wanna be like that.
501
00:39:57,572 --> 00:39:59,149
That's a good choice.
502
00:40:00,241 --> 00:40:02,032
At the hospital...
503
00:40:02,201 --> 00:40:05,072
... when I told you I was at the mansion
to return books...
504
00:40:05,246 --> 00:40:06,989
... I was lying.
505
00:40:08,833 --> 00:40:11,787
Lex and I have actually been
spending a lot of time together.
506
00:40:14,505 --> 00:40:16,747
You know, I kind of noticed.
507
00:40:18,926 --> 00:40:21,002
Clark, it's more than that.
508
00:40:21,262 --> 00:40:22,590
We're seeing each other.
509
00:40:25,808 --> 00:40:29,260
And I thought that it would be best
if you heard it from me first.
510
00:40:38,821 --> 00:40:41,312
Lana, I know
you don't wanna hear this...
511
00:40:41,908 --> 00:40:43,236
... especially from me.
512
00:40:45,328 --> 00:40:48,282
- You can't trust Lex.
- And I could trust you?
513
00:40:48,915 --> 00:40:51,370
I just don't wanna see you get hurt.
514
00:40:53,086 --> 00:40:56,870
I know you think you're being
some kind of a hero, Clark...
515
00:40:57,340 --> 00:40:59,332
... but the truth is...
516
00:41:00,093 --> 00:41:02,880
... I don't need you to protect me.
517
00:41:09,352 --> 00:41:10,846
Lana.
518
00:41:12,688 --> 00:41:14,147
Clark...
519
00:41:14,732 --> 00:41:16,274
... it's over.
520
00:41:17,860 --> 00:41:19,983
You made that decision.
