Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:22,269 --> 00:00:24,260
How about a game of one on one?
2
00:00:24,805 --> 00:00:26,170
You're Bo?
3
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,737
- I know.
- Yeah, right. I mean, you would know.
4
00:00:32,179 --> 00:00:33,476
Sure, yeah.
5
00:00:33,547 --> 00:00:35,447
First free throw gets the ball.
6
00:00:35,515 --> 00:00:36,777
Okay.
7
00:00:41,288 --> 00:00:42,812
Bo knows free throws.
8
00:00:52,099 --> 00:00:54,693
What can I say? Bo knows jump shots.
9
00:01:10,951 --> 00:01:14,443
Oh, no, don't tell me.
Bo knows hook shots.
10
00:01:14,821 --> 00:01:16,186
You got it.
11
00:01:54,494 --> 00:01:55,961
Bo don't know that.
12
00:03:00,093 --> 00:03:04,996
The sales department has just
sent down this little reminder.
13
00:03:05,599 --> 00:03:07,794
But I'm gonna make it easy for everybody.
14
00:03:07,868 --> 00:03:12,703
What it says is that ever since Preston
Carpenter bought the Metropolis Star...
15
00:03:12,772 --> 00:03:15,297
and started throwing his money
around this town...
16
00:03:15,375 --> 00:03:19,937
the Star has been selling
twice as many newspapers as the Planet...
17
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,674
both newsstand and subscription.
18
00:03:23,717 --> 00:03:26,015
Can anybody explain this to me?
19
00:03:26,152 --> 00:03:28,780
- Bigger type, smaller words?
- No, Lois.
20
00:03:29,256 --> 00:03:32,783
Carpenter's got reporters out
hustling us on the street.
21
00:03:33,527 --> 00:03:37,554
In the last month
the Star has out-scooped us...
22
00:03:37,631 --> 00:03:41,465
on every single major news story
in this town.
23
00:03:42,502 --> 00:03:46,063
Now what am I gonna lead off
this afternoon's edition with...
24
00:03:46,139 --> 00:03:48,039
that's gonna change all that?
25
00:03:48,108 --> 00:03:51,544
Secretary Wallace is in town to
sign that nuclear arms treaty with Omer.
26
00:03:51,611 --> 00:03:53,169
We're waiting to hear on one on one.
27
00:03:53,246 --> 00:03:55,840
That'll really have them lining up
at the newsstands.
28
00:03:55,916 --> 00:03:59,147
Lois, if you got a better idea...
29
00:04:02,022 --> 00:04:03,853
Police charity scams?
30
00:04:05,592 --> 00:04:07,321
At least it's local.
31
00:04:07,394 --> 00:04:11,296
People, for 50 years the Daily Planet
has been the top dog in this town...
32
00:04:11,364 --> 00:04:15,130
and the Metropolis Star has been
this dirty little puppy nipping at our heels.
33
00:04:15,201 --> 00:04:17,169
Now, I don't mean to be an alarmist...
34
00:04:17,237 --> 00:04:19,933
but unless we get
some major news stories on our own...
35
00:04:20,006 --> 00:04:23,032
the faces around here
are gonna start changing.
36
00:04:23,376 --> 00:04:25,901
Now, what we need is a good scandal.
37
00:04:26,613 --> 00:04:28,547
- A crime wave...
- Hotel fire!
38
00:04:28,615 --> 00:04:30,845
- That'll do.
- There's a woman trapped on a ledge.
39
00:04:30,917 --> 00:04:32,680
The fire department can't reach her.
40
00:04:32,752 --> 00:04:35,721
Yes! Lois, Clark, shake some tail.
41
00:04:36,856 --> 00:04:37,948
All right!
44
00:05:00,113 --> 00:05:03,844
If not for the incredible
last-second rescue by Superman...
45
00:05:04,250 --> 00:05:06,445
Excuse me, Superman.
Linda King, Metropolis Star.
46
00:05:06,519 --> 00:05:08,646
Can you tell me what it was like up there?
47
00:05:08,722 --> 00:05:12,852
The smoke was very intense.
Visibility to the human eye, probably zero.
48
00:05:12,926 --> 00:05:15,121
I'm just lucky that
she held on till I got here.
49
00:05:15,195 --> 00:05:17,720
A mother with three children,
it would have been awful.
50
00:05:17,797 --> 00:05:20,288
- Now, if you'll excuse me.
- Thank you.
51
00:05:20,367 --> 00:05:23,063
Just another day in the life of a superhero.
52
00:05:23,303 --> 00:05:25,669
That's it. Thanks. Great. Bye.
53
00:05:25,805 --> 00:05:28,968
Excuse me, Daily Planet.
What are you doing here?
54
00:05:29,275 --> 00:05:31,209
Lois, it's nice to see you, too.
55
00:05:31,277 --> 00:05:34,144
What's it been?
Six years since graduation?
56
00:05:34,347 --> 00:05:36,178
Unfortunately, you haven't changed a bit.
57
00:05:36,249 --> 00:05:39,707
We're not starting this again.
I'm here on business for the Daily Planet.
58
00:05:39,786 --> 00:05:41,083
I need to talk to Superman.
59
00:05:41,154 --> 00:05:43,486
You just missed him. He was very helpful.
60
00:05:43,556 --> 00:05:45,888
Not only did he save the woman
at the last second...
61
00:05:45,959 --> 00:05:49,258
but he was nice enough
to give me a quote for my story.
62
00:05:49,329 --> 00:05:50,489
Your story?
63
00:05:50,563 --> 00:05:53,691
Haven't you heard?
I'm working for the Metropolis Star.
64
00:05:53,767 --> 00:05:56,463
And I believe you've just been scooped.
65
00:06:04,844 --> 00:06:07,005
So you got scooped. It happens.
66
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,570
Just focus on the next story.
67
00:06:08,648 --> 00:06:11,811
Spare me the Smallville pep talk.
I wasn't just scooped.
68
00:06:11,885 --> 00:06:15,150
A hideous part of my past
just reared its ugly head.
69
00:06:15,221 --> 00:06:18,782
Never let it be said that Lois Lane
doesn't have a flair for exaggeration.
70
00:06:18,858 --> 00:06:21,452
You don't know this woman, Clark.
She has no conscience.
71
00:06:21,528 --> 00:06:23,155
She can't even spell it.
72
00:06:23,229 --> 00:06:26,995
It was a dark day for the Daily Planet
when Linda King rode into town.
73
00:06:27,067 --> 00:06:29,900
Go ahead, mock me.
You don't know the depths...
74
00:06:29,969 --> 00:06:33,837
to which this woman will stoop to get
a story. Or anything else, for that matter.
75
00:06:33,907 --> 00:06:36,774
- Do I detect the scent of jealousy?
- No.
76
00:06:39,012 --> 00:06:42,778
You detect the smell of a rat
and she just scurried in.
77
00:06:42,949 --> 00:06:45,941
Hi, Lois,
I thought we could get reacquainted.
78
00:06:46,753 --> 00:06:48,084
Or not.
79
00:06:48,755 --> 00:06:49,847
Hi, I'm Linda King.
80
00:06:49,923 --> 00:06:52,619
Hi, Clark Kent. I've heard a lot about you.
81
00:06:52,692 --> 00:06:54,887
From Lois? Let me guess.
82
00:06:54,961 --> 00:06:57,327
"Has no conscience.
Will stoop to anything."
83
00:06:57,397 --> 00:06:58,796
- See?
- She's kidding.
84
00:06:58,865 --> 00:07:02,426
No, I'm not. And one more thing.
Stay away from Superman.
85
00:07:08,274 --> 00:07:12,472
I guess Lois thinks Superman's
her own personal source, doesn't she?
86
00:07:13,713 --> 00:07:15,874
You know, I'd really like
to talk to him again.
87
00:07:15,949 --> 00:07:17,348
Is that the reason you're here?
88
00:07:17,417 --> 00:07:20,284
Well, wouldn't an introduction fall
into the category...
89
00:07:20,353 --> 00:07:22,082
of professional courtesy?
90
00:07:22,689 --> 00:07:23,883
Sorry.
91
00:07:24,357 --> 00:07:26,655
Then what should we talk about?
92
00:07:29,863 --> 00:07:33,060
I read your article on the hotel fire.
Very good work.
93
00:07:33,133 --> 00:07:35,567
Thank you.
Surprising to hear you say that, though.
94
00:07:35,635 --> 00:07:37,762
Just because we're competitors
doesn't mean...
95
00:07:37,837 --> 00:07:39,737
that we can't appreciate the competition.
96
00:07:39,806 --> 00:07:42,707
I also liked the editorial
that your publisher wrote...
97
00:07:42,776 --> 00:07:44,869
demanding changes
in the fire department.
98
00:07:44,944 --> 00:07:46,275
He's a very powerful writer.
99
00:07:46,346 --> 00:07:49,509
Preston Carpenter is
a very powerful man, period.
100
00:07:50,116 --> 00:07:53,608
By the way, he's having a party tonight
at the Metropolis Press Club.
101
00:07:53,686 --> 00:07:55,085
Do you wanna go?
102
00:07:55,155 --> 00:07:58,147
It's so last minute
and I hate to go to those things alone.
103
00:07:58,224 --> 00:07:59,521
So bring a date.
104
00:07:59,592 --> 00:08:02,493
I'd ask you to be mine,
but I already have one.
105
00:08:04,430 --> 00:08:05,795
Okay, sure.
106
00:08:06,266 --> 00:08:08,393
Great. I'll see you tonight.
107
00:08:12,572 --> 00:08:13,937
Bye, Lois.
108
00:08:18,778 --> 00:08:20,609
All right, what did she want?
109
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:25,208
She invited me, us,
you and me to a dinner...
110
00:08:25,285 --> 00:08:27,947
that Carpenter is throwing tonight.
Do you wanna go?
111
00:08:28,021 --> 00:08:31,889
How could you accept an invitation
from her after everything I told you?
112
00:08:31,958 --> 00:08:33,949
Lois, we might learn something.
113
00:08:34,027 --> 00:08:38,896
Oh, I'm sure that's the only reason
Clark Kent, all-American boy, wants to go.
114
00:08:38,965 --> 00:08:40,432
What time should I pick you up?
115
00:08:40,500 --> 00:08:42,730
You will not be picking me up.
116
00:08:47,774 --> 00:08:49,605
I'll meet you there at 7:00.
117
00:08:59,586 --> 00:09:02,714
Lois, you look incredible.
118
00:09:03,389 --> 00:09:05,152
Have you seen Linda?
119
00:09:05,291 --> 00:09:07,589
Well, no one fields a compliment
quite like you do.
120
00:09:07,660 --> 00:09:09,355
I wonder what she's wearing.
121
00:09:09,429 --> 00:09:11,989
Wild guess.
I'm thinking there's more to this rivalry...
122
00:09:12,065 --> 00:09:14,465
than just who's the better reporter.
Am I right?
123
00:09:14,534 --> 00:09:16,024
Don't insult me.
124
00:09:16,102 --> 00:09:17,296
I insulted you?
125
00:09:17,370 --> 00:09:19,861
There's no question
who's the better reporter.
126
00:09:19,939 --> 00:09:22,100
Hello, Charles, how are you?
127
00:09:23,276 --> 00:09:27,303
- Don't look at her.
- Lois, what a surprise. You're Clark's date.
128
00:09:27,580 --> 00:09:29,548
What else do you two do together?
129
00:09:29,616 --> 00:09:31,516
I thought you two might enjoy
catching up.
130
00:09:31,584 --> 00:09:33,575
What happened, Linda,
your date stand you up?
131
00:09:33,653 --> 00:09:36,622
Of course not.
Follow me, I'll introduce you.
132
00:09:37,957 --> 00:09:40,118
Lois, I love your dress. You're so lucky.
133
00:09:40,193 --> 00:09:42,787
I'd never wear anything off the rack.
134
00:09:43,129 --> 00:09:44,721
- Preston.
- Linda.
135
00:09:45,064 --> 00:09:48,500
You look so beautiful.
I'm at a lost for words to describe her.
136
00:09:48,568 --> 00:09:50,297
I could help you there.
137
00:09:50,370 --> 00:09:54,170
Preston, this is Clark Kent.
He's a reporter for the Daily Planet.
138
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,403
And his date, Lois Lane.
Preston Carpenter.
139
00:09:57,510 --> 00:09:59,774
Actually, we're a reporting team.
140
00:09:59,846 --> 00:10:02,838
The Daily Planet was a fine paper
in its day.
141
00:10:02,916 --> 00:10:05,146
Fine paper, but things change.
142
00:10:05,218 --> 00:10:07,812
That's a lesson in life, I guess.
143
00:10:07,887 --> 00:10:10,981
Either you make it happen
or it happens to you.
144
00:10:11,758 --> 00:10:15,319
Excuse me. The Mayor would like
to have a moment with you.
145
00:10:15,895 --> 00:10:17,886
Yes. Excuse me, will you?
146
00:10:20,466 --> 00:10:23,333
Well, now we know how you got your job.
147
00:10:23,703 --> 00:10:26,900
Lois, you don't mind if Clark and I dance,
do you?
148
00:10:44,958 --> 00:10:46,550
Where have you been?
149
00:10:46,626 --> 00:10:49,561
Fire department.
They think the hotel's a probable arson.
150
00:10:49,629 --> 00:10:53,565
Get me some aftermath photos
of investigators sifting through the rubble.
151
00:10:53,633 --> 00:10:55,498
Why are you reading that tabloid rag?
152
00:10:55,568 --> 00:10:57,832
CK got his picture on the society section.
153
00:10:57,904 --> 00:11:00,099
He's dancing with Linda King.
154
00:11:01,975 --> 00:11:03,840
I need some good news.
155
00:11:04,077 --> 00:11:06,637
Well, I wouldn't read the bulletin board.
156
00:11:06,713 --> 00:11:09,238
- Why?
- The paper's cut out expense accounts.
157
00:11:09,315 --> 00:11:11,545
- They can't do that.
- Just did.
158
00:11:11,617 --> 00:11:14,279
Memo says it's cutting costs
due to lower circulation.
159
00:11:14,354 --> 00:11:18,017
CK thinks that paid sick days
are the next thing to go.
160
00:11:19,625 --> 00:11:21,058
Where is Clark?
161
00:11:21,127 --> 00:11:24,028
I think he had a lunch date
with Linda King.
162
00:11:27,300 --> 00:11:30,497
If anybody wants me,
I'll be at the Fudge Castle.
163
00:11:30,903 --> 00:11:32,530
On my own money.
164
00:11:35,041 --> 00:11:39,102
Since you were kind enough to read my
work, I've been reading some of yours.
165
00:11:39,178 --> 00:11:41,476
I'm impressed with you, Clark.
166
00:11:41,547 --> 00:11:43,344
I'm not easily impressed.
167
00:11:43,416 --> 00:11:45,509
Most of it was written with Lois.
168
00:11:45,585 --> 00:11:47,985
That says even more about your talent.
169
00:11:48,688 --> 00:11:50,986
Actually, I've learned a lot from her.
170
00:11:51,057 --> 00:11:54,584
Clark, just what exactly
is your relationship with Lois?
171
00:11:55,595 --> 00:11:57,688
It's not defined.
172
00:11:58,364 --> 00:12:00,161
Define "not defined."
173
00:12:02,568 --> 00:12:03,899
Excuse me.
174
00:12:05,671 --> 00:12:09,971
King. I'm here at the Tri Crown. Okay.
175
00:12:11,444 --> 00:12:15,881
Carpenter. He likes to know
where his reporters are at all times.
176
00:12:15,948 --> 00:12:17,074
Don't you log out?
177
00:12:17,150 --> 00:12:21,109
Sure, but nothing goes on at the Star
without Carpenter's say-so.
178
00:12:21,187 --> 00:12:23,883
He's the most hands-on publisher
I've ever worked for.
179
00:12:23,956 --> 00:12:27,221
Judging by the way the Star has been
getting its stories lately...
180
00:12:27,293 --> 00:12:28,817
I'd say it works for him.
181
00:12:28,895 --> 00:12:31,386
We've just had a run of great luck.
182
00:12:32,331 --> 00:12:36,665
It takes more than great luck
to be in the right place at the right time.
183
00:12:36,736 --> 00:12:39,705
I'd like to take credit, but truth be told...
184
00:12:39,772 --> 00:12:41,239
I only nailed that fire story...
185
00:12:41,307 --> 00:12:45,835
because I happened to be at the hotel
covering a fashion show at the time.
186
00:12:46,879 --> 00:12:48,540
Sort of like this?
187
00:12:49,449 --> 00:12:50,711
Sort of.
188
00:12:56,689 --> 00:12:57,951
Can you tell me what happened?
189
00:12:58,024 --> 00:13:02,222
Yeah, a cable broke in the elevator.
The car is dangling on the 75th floor.
190
00:13:02,295 --> 00:13:03,523
Clark?
191
00:13:05,932 --> 00:13:07,263
The cable snapped. Let's move!
192
00:13:07,333 --> 00:13:09,733
Here, let me borrow your camera.
193
00:13:19,278 --> 00:13:20,540
Superman!
194
00:13:34,026 --> 00:13:35,891
The afternoon edition.
195
00:13:39,432 --> 00:13:43,994
Well done, Stark.
Don't you just love the news business?
196
00:13:44,837 --> 00:13:45,997
This wasn't easy.
197
00:13:46,072 --> 00:13:50,133
It's not supposed to be easy. I wouldn't
need your services if it was easy, would I?
198
00:13:50,209 --> 00:13:54,509
Yeah, well. How many more?
199
00:13:55,081 --> 00:13:58,107
As many as it takes to kill the Daily Planet.
200
00:13:59,352 --> 00:14:01,081
Because then, Stark...
201
00:14:01,154 --> 00:14:05,147
I will control over 80%
of what the American people read.
202
00:14:11,898 --> 00:14:14,526
And when you control what they read...
203
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:16,727
you control what they think.
204
00:14:17,103 --> 00:14:19,697
And when you control what they think...
205
00:14:19,772 --> 00:14:22,707
then you can really begin
to make it happen.
206
00:14:27,647 --> 00:14:29,808
Now, who knows what's wrong
with this picture?
207
00:14:31,551 --> 00:14:33,849
I'm gonna tell you
what's wrong with this picture.
208
00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,617
What's wrong with this picture is
that we have no picture.
209
00:14:38,524 --> 00:14:42,927
Superman is the biggest story of the day.
210
00:14:44,530 --> 00:14:48,057
And the only picture we got
is a picture of a weather graph.
211
00:14:48,134 --> 00:14:52,298
Now, could someone
please explain this to me?
212
00:14:52,538 --> 00:14:57,271
Chief, the first diagram illustrates the
amount of rainfall we're getting this year.
213
00:14:57,376 --> 00:14:59,173
And the pie chart...
214
00:14:59,712 --> 00:15:03,079
How could you let
that bottom feeder scoop you like this?
215
00:15:03,149 --> 00:15:05,515
- Bottom feeder?
- Why were you having lunch with her?
216
00:15:05,585 --> 00:15:07,519
What are you asking him for?
217
00:15:07,587 --> 00:15:11,114
If you want to know something,
go out and buy the Star.
218
00:15:11,824 --> 00:15:13,223
They know everything.
219
00:15:13,292 --> 00:15:15,726
I bet they don't know
how much rain we got this year.
220
00:15:15,795 --> 00:15:17,888
People, I can assure you...
221
00:15:18,264 --> 00:15:22,291
if we don't come up
with some solid page-one stories PDQ...
222
00:15:22,568 --> 00:15:26,698
the only writing you're going to be doing
is writing your r�sum�s.
223
00:15:27,974 --> 00:15:29,999
Now, what have we got?
224
00:15:31,010 --> 00:15:32,534
Conference room.
225
00:15:32,612 --> 00:15:34,170
Anybody?
226
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:39,010
What in the sam hill am I supposed
to tell my publisher if he calls?
227
00:15:39,118 --> 00:15:42,747
Well, whatever it is,
he's waiting to hear it on line one.
228
00:15:43,256 --> 00:15:45,121
Just a warning, folks.
229
00:15:45,491 --> 00:15:49,393
I've seen papers shut down before,
and it's not a pretty sight.
230
00:15:50,997 --> 00:15:52,897
It ain't pretty at all.
231
00:16:14,387 --> 00:16:19,290
I know Linda's writing style is absolutely
mesmerizing, but please try not to drool.
232
00:16:20,626 --> 00:16:22,856
How long
are you gonna keep acting like this?
233
00:16:22,928 --> 00:16:27,490
Me? You're the one who's more concerned
with being on the Star's society page...
234
00:16:27,566 --> 00:16:29,397
than making the Planet's front page.
235
00:16:29,468 --> 00:16:30,867
Is that what this is about?
236
00:16:30,936 --> 00:16:34,838
You're jealous because you think
I'm infatuated with Linda King?
237
00:16:34,907 --> 00:16:37,467
I wouldn't care
if you were infatuated with Don King.
238
00:16:37,543 --> 00:16:40,876
What I care about
is the quality of reporting at the Planet.
239
00:16:40,946 --> 00:16:43,380
Then you should be happy to see this.
240
00:16:46,485 --> 00:16:49,079
Okay, I see it. When do I get happy?
241
00:16:50,089 --> 00:16:54,253
This is elevator cable.
I found it in the shaft after the accident.
242
00:16:54,827 --> 00:16:56,488
Check out the end.
243
00:16:58,731 --> 00:17:01,097
I don't feel happy
but I am closing in on bored.
244
00:17:01,167 --> 00:17:04,694
It's not frayed, Lois.
It's smooth, like it's been cut.
245
00:17:05,971 --> 00:17:08,565
Cut? Then the accident...
246
00:17:08,908 --> 00:17:10,307
Wasn't an accident.
247
00:17:10,376 --> 00:17:14,005
- Somebody wanted the elevator to fall.
- Clark, do you know what this means?
248
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,379
- I can scoop Linda.
- You?
249
00:17:17,483 --> 00:17:21,613
Yes, me. I mean "us."
I meant to say "us." Didn't I say "us"?
250
00:17:21,721 --> 00:17:25,350
Yeah. Look, before we write anything,
I want the lab to verify my...
251
00:17:25,424 --> 00:17:26,721
- Our theory.
- Right.
252
00:17:26,792 --> 00:17:29,989
Absolutely. Of course. Messenger!
Get me a messenger!
253
00:17:30,062 --> 00:17:33,054
Let's sit down, grab a bite to eat.
Calm down. You seem tense.
254
00:17:33,132 --> 00:17:35,828
Tense? No, I am not tense.
I'm perfectly fine.
255
00:17:35,901 --> 00:17:37,869
I'm just perfectly fine.
256
00:17:38,404 --> 00:17:40,167
Are you the messenger?
257
00:17:40,239 --> 00:17:41,968
- No.
- Get me the messenger!
258
00:17:45,111 --> 00:17:49,309
All right, let's think this thing through.
Assume the elevator cable was cut.
259
00:17:49,382 --> 00:17:51,850
Who would benefit from it?
You'd kill a random person.
260
00:17:51,917 --> 00:17:54,613
The building owner. Insurance scam.
I don't know.
261
00:17:54,687 --> 00:17:56,086
Welcome to the Press Club.
262
00:17:56,155 --> 00:17:57,588
What's this?
263
00:17:57,656 --> 00:18:00,022
Looks like a promotion for the Star.
Yeah, look.
264
00:18:00,092 --> 00:18:01,719
Every customer receives a free copy.
265
00:18:01,794 --> 00:18:05,127
It's not bad enough Carpenter has
to lower his newsstand price.
266
00:18:05,197 --> 00:18:06,892
Now he's giving it away.
267
00:18:09,168 --> 00:18:10,760
What are you looking at?
268
00:18:10,836 --> 00:18:13,737
Carpenter has an editorial
demanding stronger building codes...
269
00:18:13,806 --> 00:18:15,273
in light of the elevator accident.
270
00:18:15,341 --> 00:18:18,833
He's calling for a criminal investigation
into the manufacturers.
271
00:18:18,911 --> 00:18:19,900
So?
272
00:18:19,979 --> 00:18:23,039
He's a fast writer.
It's in the same edition as Linda's article.
273
00:18:23,115 --> 00:18:26,175
The man's a walking opinion.
He doesn't need to think much.
274
00:18:26,252 --> 00:18:27,776
But still...
275
00:18:28,154 --> 00:18:29,485
I'll be right back.
276
00:18:29,555 --> 00:18:34,356
Order me angel hair with tomato and
basil. No olive oil, extra parmesan cheese.
277
00:18:35,461 --> 00:18:40,091
Two page-one stories in as many days.
You should be very proud of yourself.
278
00:18:40,766 --> 00:18:43,496
It's an unexpected start, I'll say that.
279
00:18:43,636 --> 00:18:46,036
To me it's not unexpected at all.
280
00:18:46,172 --> 00:18:48,936
You're a man of vision.
Isn't that what they say?
281
00:18:49,008 --> 00:18:52,705
I am a man of action.
Do you remember Charles Foster Kane?
282
00:18:53,612 --> 00:18:55,045
- Of course.
- My idol...
283
00:18:55,114 --> 00:18:57,981
even though he was
only a movie character.
284
00:18:58,083 --> 00:19:01,450
I've devoted my time
to becoming the genuine article.
285
00:19:02,488 --> 00:19:04,786
- Aren't you already?
- Not quite.
286
00:19:05,925 --> 00:19:09,622
You see, Kane not only reported
the news, he made it.
287
00:19:10,696 --> 00:19:13,722
He set out an agenda
for the entire country...
288
00:19:14,567 --> 00:19:17,661
and then he had his papers
promote that agenda...
289
00:19:18,137 --> 00:19:20,503
and the country went along.
290
00:19:20,873 --> 00:19:25,708
And soon, I will have that kind of power.
291
00:19:28,547 --> 00:19:31,812
Does that excite you
as much as it excites me?
292
00:19:34,220 --> 00:19:37,417
I don't think
we should confuse our relationship.
293
00:19:37,490 --> 00:19:42,257
My dear, if there's one thing I am not,
it's confused.
294
00:19:43,496 --> 00:19:46,988
I've got a deadline.
I've got to get back to the office.
295
00:19:51,237 --> 00:19:54,331
- Good night.
- Good night.
296
00:20:03,649 --> 00:20:05,617
Looking for your career?
297
00:20:06,418 --> 00:20:08,147
I lost my bracelet.
298
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:12,313
I've seen how you accessorize, Lois.
Believe me, it's not worth the effort.
299
00:20:12,391 --> 00:20:14,291
Is there no getting away from you?
300
00:20:14,360 --> 00:20:16,294
I was wondering
what you were doing here.
301
00:20:16,362 --> 00:20:17,488
- I am a member.
- Oh, really?
302
00:20:17,563 --> 00:20:20,191
I thought members had to be working
for an organization...
303
00:20:20,266 --> 00:20:21,392
that was still in business.
304
00:20:21,467 --> 00:20:23,367
Don't start swaggering yet.
305
00:20:23,502 --> 00:20:27,268
Although on second thought,
your hips could use a little exercise.
306
00:20:28,941 --> 00:20:33,640
Speaking of bodies, that partner of yours?
Great one. Buns of steel.
307
00:20:33,946 --> 00:20:35,072
How would you know?
308
00:20:35,147 --> 00:20:37,877
You don't need Superman's x-ray vision
to figure that out.
309
00:20:37,950 --> 00:20:40,248
Listen, Linda, I'm warning you,
stay away from him.
310
00:20:40,319 --> 00:20:42,787
You said that about Superman.
What is it with you?
311
00:20:42,855 --> 00:20:45,949
Clark's good-hearted and naive.
I wouldn't wanna see him get hurt.
312
00:20:46,025 --> 00:20:48,391
I know you'd just be using him
to get back at me.
313
00:20:48,460 --> 00:20:50,360
For me to want to get
back at you means...
314
00:20:50,429 --> 00:20:53,296
you'd have to have done something
that mattered to me.
315
00:20:55,501 --> 00:20:57,162
Which you haven't.
316
00:20:58,871 --> 00:21:01,203
Clark. Can I ask a favor of you?
317
00:21:01,273 --> 00:21:03,173
He's working. We're working.
318
00:21:03,242 --> 00:21:04,607
Looks like you're having dinner.
319
00:21:04,677 --> 00:21:07,771
You had lunch with the man.
Aren't you full yet?
320
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:11,306
Would you please walk me
to the train station?
321
00:21:11,383 --> 00:21:14,011
Clark, help her out,
then lock the door behind her.
322
00:21:14,086 --> 00:21:17,954
Such wit, Lois. Maybe that'll help you pass
the hours at the unemployment office.
323
00:21:18,023 --> 00:21:19,752
Do you mind if I say something here?
324
00:21:19,825 --> 00:21:21,622
No. Tell her no and let's eat.
325
00:21:21,694 --> 00:21:23,559
She probably doesn't know
her way around.
326
00:21:23,629 --> 00:21:26,894
She knows her way around well enough
to beat us out of two stories...
327
00:21:26,966 --> 00:21:27,990
since she's been here.
328
00:21:28,067 --> 00:21:29,398
Trust me.
329
00:21:29,668 --> 00:21:32,535
There's a train station
about two blocks from here.
330
00:21:32,605 --> 00:21:34,334
I'll be right back.
331
00:21:36,742 --> 00:21:38,073
Bye, Lois.
332
00:21:39,011 --> 00:21:42,845
Come over to my place.
I'll build a fire and make some coffee.
333
00:21:42,915 --> 00:21:45,110
Lois is waiting for me at the Press Club.
334
00:21:45,184 --> 00:21:47,846
Lois should be used to disappointment.
335
00:21:48,587 --> 00:21:52,819
Look, I don't know what it is between
you two, but she is my partner.
336
00:21:54,927 --> 00:21:58,124
Here you go.
Trains come by every couple minutes.
337
00:21:59,832 --> 00:22:01,197
Good night.
338
00:22:01,700 --> 00:22:06,603
Clark, you said your relationship
with Lois was "not defined."
339
00:22:07,373 --> 00:22:09,500
Well, professionally, it is.
340
00:22:10,042 --> 00:22:13,978
Well, if you ever want to redefine
yourself professionally...
341
00:22:14,780 --> 00:22:16,407
or personally...
342
00:22:17,516 --> 00:22:21,247
This is the final boarding call
for Train 120 departing...
343
00:22:27,326 --> 00:22:28,657
Who is it?
344
00:22:28,827 --> 00:22:32,319
Lois, it's me. I'm sorry.
345
00:22:46,612 --> 00:22:48,341
You didn't have to leave.
346
00:22:49,048 --> 00:22:50,310
I was only gone a few minutes.
347
00:22:50,382 --> 00:22:52,714
I'm a busy person, I have things to do.
I have to...
348
00:22:52,785 --> 00:22:54,377
What? Scrub your grout?
349
00:22:54,453 --> 00:22:57,945
- You are really letting this woman get to...
- Get to me?
350
00:23:02,327 --> 00:23:03,692
All right.
351
00:23:05,798 --> 00:23:09,029
This doesn't go beyond this room,
you understand?
352
00:23:09,101 --> 00:23:10,193
Okay.
353
00:23:11,603 --> 00:23:13,833
Linda and I were best friends.
354
00:23:15,641 --> 00:23:17,632
We were very competitive.
355
00:23:17,743 --> 00:23:19,040
You may not believe this...
356
00:23:19,111 --> 00:23:23,013
but, there was a time
when I had to be the best at everything.
357
00:23:23,682 --> 00:23:27,846
Anyway, I was dating this guy, Paul.
358
00:23:28,387 --> 00:23:32,824
He was an editor and he was a senior
and I had a really big crush on him.
359
00:23:33,859 --> 00:23:36,885
Things were happening
and I got this story...
360
00:23:37,362 --> 00:23:41,696
about these football players at our school
that weren't taking their own exams.
361
00:23:41,767 --> 00:23:43,234
I thought, "This is it."
362
00:23:43,302 --> 00:23:48,069
This is the story that's gonna make him
feel about me the way I feel about him.
363
00:23:48,674 --> 00:23:49,868
Did it?
364
00:23:50,676 --> 00:23:52,803
No, it didn't.
365
00:23:54,113 --> 00:23:58,379
Because somehow Linda stole my story
and wrote it under her name.
366
00:23:59,151 --> 00:24:02,143
Of course,
Paul fell for her and dumped me...
367
00:24:02,488 --> 00:24:05,980
and she continued to please him
in ways I won't go into.
368
00:24:07,392 --> 00:24:12,295
So she stole a story and she stole a guy,
and now she's trying to do it again?
369
00:24:12,998 --> 00:24:14,898
Don't flatter yourself.
370
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,025
Don't take this out on me, Lois.
371
00:24:17,102 --> 00:24:21,095
Why not? You say yes to her party
and yes to her lunch...
372
00:24:21,173 --> 00:24:24,939
and yes to walking her home.
You're turning into her indentured servant.
373
00:24:25,010 --> 00:24:28,343
So it's okay for me to be your servant
but nobody else's?
374
00:24:28,413 --> 00:24:31,382
Clark, you are my partner
and what you do reflects on me.
375
00:24:31,450 --> 00:24:34,749
I don't want the world to know
that my partner is a doormat for women.
376
00:24:34,820 --> 00:24:36,344
That is not true, and you know it.
377
00:24:36,421 --> 00:24:39,754
You want the truth? The truth is
that you're a doormat with no taste.
378
00:24:39,825 --> 00:24:41,918
That's it. I'm out of here. Forget it.
379
00:24:41,994 --> 00:24:44,963
Fine! Perfect! Go!
She's probably waiting for you.
380
00:24:45,030 --> 00:24:47,624
You know, I'd love to hear her side
of this whole story.
381
00:24:47,699 --> 00:24:51,032
And I could tell her about
how impossible you are to work with.
382
00:24:51,103 --> 00:24:53,901
Really?
Then why don't work with her, too?
383
00:24:54,506 --> 00:24:56,030
Maybe I just will.
384
00:24:56,108 --> 00:24:58,201
You two deserve each other.
385
00:25:03,315 --> 00:25:06,284
It's become very difficult
working with Lois.
386
00:25:06,485 --> 00:25:10,216
Her obsession with Linda King
is affecting her performance.
387
00:25:11,156 --> 00:25:13,784
Now I also have to think of my own future.
388
00:25:13,859 --> 00:25:16,384
The Planet is a dying paper...
389
00:25:16,461 --> 00:25:19,760
and I don't wanna be the one
to have to turn out the lights.
390
00:25:21,567 --> 00:25:24,263
We don't pull any punches here, Kent.
391
00:25:24,570 --> 00:25:26,504
We make things happen.
392
00:25:27,072 --> 00:25:28,505
I want you to go all out.
393
00:25:28,574 --> 00:25:31,168
Yes, sir. That's what I intend to do.
394
00:25:32,444 --> 00:25:34,969
Then welcome to the Metropolis Star.
395
00:25:37,149 --> 00:25:38,480
Thank you.
396
00:25:46,258 --> 00:25:47,919
Perry, I just got off the phone.
397
00:25:47,993 --> 00:25:51,793
I hate to be the one to tell you,
but we have got a turncoat...
398
00:25:51,864 --> 00:25:54,594
a Benedict Arnold,
and you'll never believe who.
399
00:25:54,666 --> 00:25:56,429
- Kent.
- CK?
400
00:25:57,903 --> 00:26:01,304
He came in here and offered
to give two weeks' notice.
401
00:26:01,373 --> 00:26:06,174
I told him he was free to go anytime.
So, well, he's gone.
402
00:26:07,312 --> 00:26:10,509
Boy, just when you think
you get to know someone...
403
00:26:11,250 --> 00:26:14,947
It's her. It's Linda King.
Don't you see what she's done?
404
00:26:15,020 --> 00:26:18,751
No, he's worried about his future, and
the way things are going around here...
405
00:26:18,824 --> 00:26:22,055
I really couldn't give him
much of an argument.
406
00:26:23,128 --> 00:26:26,495
Did he mention what kind
of medical plan they got over there?
407
00:26:34,873 --> 00:26:36,363
You know what?
408
00:26:37,075 --> 00:26:38,440
Don't you see what she's done?
409
00:26:38,510 --> 00:26:42,378
She waves her skirt in front of him and
he turns into some pathetic little puppy.
410
00:26:42,447 --> 00:26:44,915
- Don't go jumping to conclusions.
- What about loyalty?
411
00:26:44,983 --> 00:26:48,282
- What about going down with the ship?
- That's for captains.
412
00:26:48,353 --> 00:26:49,786
That's why I'm still here.
413
00:26:49,855 --> 00:26:51,482
How can you be so calm?
414
00:26:51,590 --> 00:26:53,114
What's my choice?
415
00:26:53,225 --> 00:26:56,558
Since I've been here I've seen you scream,
I've seen you throw things.
416
00:26:56,628 --> 00:26:58,960
I even saw you put your fist
through the wall once.
417
00:26:59,031 --> 00:27:03,593
The only thing we can do is just continue
what we're supposed to be doing.
418
00:27:05,203 --> 00:27:08,468
By the by,
what you're supposed to be doing...
419
00:27:08,540 --> 00:27:12,067
according to this,
is covering the Irani jewels...
420
00:27:12,144 --> 00:27:15,341
that the Ambassador of Omer is giving
to Secretary Wallace...
421
00:27:15,414 --> 00:27:17,974
as a lovely parting gift.
422
00:27:19,551 --> 00:27:21,883
- Is that the best we've got?
- No.
423
00:27:21,954 --> 00:27:24,582
The best we've got is your editor-in-chief...
424
00:27:25,157 --> 00:27:29,491
hanging from the top of the
World Trade Center in a gorilla outfit.
425
00:27:30,262 --> 00:27:34,665
But my costume hasn't arrived yet.
Now, I'm gonna page you when it does.
426
00:27:34,833 --> 00:27:36,630
So get out of here.
427
00:27:39,638 --> 00:27:41,196
And Lois...
428
00:27:41,740 --> 00:27:44,766
it's gonna be all right. Trust me.
429
00:27:44,977 --> 00:27:47,036
That's what Clark told me.
430
00:27:51,817 --> 00:27:55,184
Are you sure you don't mind me
suggesting to Carpenter that we team up?
431
00:27:55,253 --> 00:27:57,619
I'm just mad I didn't suggest it first.
432
00:28:01,026 --> 00:28:03,756
King. Yeah, we're here in the main room.
433
00:28:05,797 --> 00:28:06,957
Carpenter.
434
00:28:07,032 --> 00:28:10,297
The man really keeps close tabs on you,
doesn't he?
435
00:28:10,369 --> 00:28:13,668
If I tell you something,
can you keep it between us?
436
00:28:15,140 --> 00:28:16,801
Sure. Absolutely.
437
00:28:17,309 --> 00:28:19,277
He's been hitting on me.
438
00:28:22,481 --> 00:28:25,109
Don't worry, I only have eyes for you.
439
00:28:34,393 --> 00:28:37,453
Ladies and gentlemen.
The Ambassador and myself...
440
00:28:37,529 --> 00:28:40,623
will be happy to answer a few questions
before the unveiling.
441
00:28:40,699 --> 00:28:43,099
Mr. Secretary, Clark Kent, Metropolis Star.
442
00:28:43,168 --> 00:28:44,726
- What do you think...
- Mr. Secretary.
443
00:28:44,803 --> 00:28:46,600
Lois Lane, Daily Planet. Is it true...
444
00:28:46,671 --> 00:28:50,004
Excuse me, but I believe
that Mr. Kent was asking the question.
445
00:28:50,075 --> 00:28:51,940
Mr. Kent can speak for himself.
446
00:28:52,010 --> 00:28:54,945
Maybe, except he's so used
to you doing it for him.
447
00:28:55,013 --> 00:28:57,038
You are such a hypocrite.
448
00:28:57,482 --> 00:28:59,780
Me? You can sure dish it out
but you can't take it.
449
00:28:59,851 --> 00:29:02,115
Why don't you
just get off your high horse?
450
00:29:02,187 --> 00:29:03,950
And get down in the gutter with you?
451
00:29:04,022 --> 00:29:05,956
Ladies, please!
452
00:29:07,526 --> 00:29:09,494
No questions, that's it.
453
00:29:09,761 --> 00:29:12,457
Let's get to the real reason we're here...
454
00:29:12,764 --> 00:29:17,098
the ceremonial exchange from the
Kingdom of Omer to the United States.
455
00:29:17,836 --> 00:29:21,203
Ladies and gentlemen,
the gift from the Ambassador of Omer...
456
00:29:24,176 --> 00:29:25,803
the Irani jewels.
457
00:29:33,218 --> 00:29:37,279
There are three armed men behind that
door. You might wanna call the police.
458
00:29:54,005 --> 00:29:57,600
Clark, you can run but you can't hide.
What's going on?
459
00:29:58,310 --> 00:30:01,074
- What do you mean?
- Don't give me that innocent act.
460
00:30:01,146 --> 00:30:02,374
Me?
461
00:30:02,447 --> 00:30:05,075
So that's the way you're gonna play this?
462
00:30:07,752 --> 00:30:10,550
- I get it. She's here, isn't she?
- No.
463
00:30:10,622 --> 00:30:13,113
That's why you can't talk. She's here.
464
00:30:14,126 --> 00:30:17,118
Is she under the bed?
Are you under the bed?
465
00:30:22,234 --> 00:30:23,531
Come out!
466
00:30:24,636 --> 00:30:27,161
- Come out, wherever you are.
- Lois.
467
00:30:28,073 --> 00:30:29,438
Is she in there?
468
00:30:38,383 --> 00:30:40,977
This is either not what I thought
I thought or...
469
00:30:41,052 --> 00:30:42,713
Oh, no.
470
00:30:44,256 --> 00:30:48,215
See, Clark's working undercover
at the Star.
471
00:30:49,528 --> 00:30:51,894
Oh, of course.
472
00:30:55,267 --> 00:30:59,465
Of course. Yes, you wouldn't throw
everything that you have away...
473
00:30:59,538 --> 00:31:01,267
on Linda King.
474
00:31:01,339 --> 00:31:03,864
Well, you are right about that, Lois.
475
00:31:04,075 --> 00:31:05,872
So talk. Talk to me.
476
00:31:09,347 --> 00:31:12,544
Okay, these accidents aren't accidents.
477
00:31:12,784 --> 00:31:15,252
The arson fire
that Linda just happened to be at...
478
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,288
the elevator cable
that snapped during lunch.
479
00:31:17,355 --> 00:31:20,153
There was even supposed to be a heist
of the Irani jewels.
480
00:31:20,225 --> 00:31:23,820
See, we thought that they might be
staging these things to scoop us...
481
00:31:23,895 --> 00:31:26,728
so we staged Clark's defection.
482
00:31:27,232 --> 00:31:29,257
You could have told me that!
483
00:31:29,401 --> 00:31:31,596
No, that was my idea.
484
00:31:33,972 --> 00:31:37,874
You seemed to be personally involved here
and I didn't want to risk it.
485
00:31:37,943 --> 00:31:41,777
So you mean I have been having
all these feelings for nothing?
486
00:31:41,947 --> 00:31:43,437
What feelings?
487
00:31:44,616 --> 00:31:47,346
Forget it. I'm not feeling them anymore.
488
00:31:47,452 --> 00:31:51,786
This means that Linda is in this
up to her surgically-sculptured chin.
489
00:31:52,090 --> 00:31:53,887
No, I don't think so.
490
00:31:53,992 --> 00:31:57,359
I thought that was it and that's why
I asked to be partners with her...
491
00:31:57,429 --> 00:31:59,727
but I think she's out of the loop.
492
00:32:01,066 --> 00:32:02,795
So what do we do now?
493
00:32:03,802 --> 00:32:06,464
Well, now that you know...
494
00:32:06,871 --> 00:32:09,704
you two might as well
work on this together.
495
00:32:09,774 --> 00:32:13,471
That is, if you still think that you can.
496
00:32:14,546 --> 00:32:16,411
Oh, Chief, I'm fine.
497
00:32:17,682 --> 00:32:21,049
It's Clark here that turns to mush
every time Linda's around.
498
00:32:21,152 --> 00:32:24,781
Me? You're the one who jumped in the
black hole the minute she came to town.
499
00:32:24,856 --> 00:32:26,483
Don't exaggerate.
500
00:32:26,925 --> 00:32:29,393
"Clark, will you take me to the station?"
501
00:32:29,761 --> 00:32:32,594
I think I'll let you two work this out.
502
00:32:33,565 --> 00:32:35,692
- I was just being polite.
- Oh, really?
503
00:32:35,767 --> 00:32:38,327
You would fly her to the moon
if you could.
504
00:32:39,704 --> 00:32:42,172
This can't be true. It can't be.
505
00:32:42,574 --> 00:32:43,734
Think about it.
506
00:32:43,808 --> 00:32:46,641
Carpenter always calls
to verify your location.
507
00:32:46,711 --> 00:32:49,373
He doesn't have to do that.
He's your publisher.
508
00:32:49,447 --> 00:32:52,541
Unless he needs to make sure
that his man or woman is in place...
509
00:32:52,617 --> 00:32:55,211
before he pulls the trigger
on whatever he has planned.
510
00:32:55,287 --> 00:32:57,255
Like the elevator cable.
511
00:32:57,322 --> 00:32:58,755
The lab results are back.
512
00:32:58,823 --> 00:33:01,815
Definitely cut, and it was no accident.
513
00:33:02,460 --> 00:33:05,486
You just happened to be there,
just like you were at the fire.
514
00:33:05,563 --> 00:33:08,760
Just like Carpenter happened to have
a front-page editorial ready...
515
00:33:08,833 --> 00:33:10,357
for the same edition.
516
00:33:11,703 --> 00:33:13,068
I just feel so...
517
00:33:13,138 --> 00:33:16,335
Abused? Duped? Used?
518
00:33:16,875 --> 00:33:20,311
- What are you, a thesaurus?
- Why don't you guys just put this on hold?
519
00:33:20,378 --> 00:33:22,243
Bottom line, it's a Planet story.
520
00:33:22,314 --> 00:33:23,303
Absolutely.
521
00:33:23,381 --> 00:33:26,111
Which we can't possibly prove or print
without Linda's help.
522
00:33:26,184 --> 00:33:27,208
Exactly.
523
00:33:28,987 --> 00:33:30,682
But what am I supposed to do?
524
00:33:30,755 --> 00:33:33,952
Just say, "Hey, boss, where are you
staging your next disaster?"
525
00:33:34,025 --> 00:33:36,220
Just get him out of the office
long enough...
526
00:33:36,294 --> 00:33:38,558
for us to break into his computer.
527
00:33:38,630 --> 00:33:39,688
How?
528
00:33:39,864 --> 00:33:43,823
You could use your other talents.
It wouldn't be the first time.
529
00:33:48,740 --> 00:33:50,002
Come in.
530
00:33:56,448 --> 00:33:59,679
I only have a moment.
What can I do for you?
531
00:33:59,751 --> 00:34:02,845
I think the question is
what can I do for you?
532
00:34:03,421 --> 00:34:05,719
I've been reading
the latest sales projections.
533
00:34:05,790 --> 00:34:09,453
Soon the Metropolis Star will be
the most widely-read paper in the country.
534
00:34:09,527 --> 00:34:12,462
And it's all because of you.
Congratulations.
535
00:34:12,597 --> 00:34:15,623
Yes, may she be a beacon for the country.
536
00:34:15,700 --> 00:34:20,034
I was hoping you'd like to join me
for lunch as my guest, to celebrate.
537
00:34:20,305 --> 00:34:24,036
That's very tempting,
but like I say, I'm pressed for time.
538
00:34:25,744 --> 00:34:29,077
Preston, even a busy publisher has to eat.
539
00:34:36,821 --> 00:34:39,255
You know, after the other night...
540
00:34:39,524 --> 00:34:43,290
I wasn't sure that you were interested
in moving our relationship...
541
00:34:43,361 --> 00:34:45,454
beyond just business.
542
00:34:46,131 --> 00:34:50,591
Who would've guessed that a charming
man like you would have any insecurities?
543
00:34:52,470 --> 00:34:54,335
Can we make it happen?
544
00:34:55,774 --> 00:34:57,867
Maybe we should just eat here.
545
00:34:57,942 --> 00:35:00,536
No, let's go out. Someplace nice.
546
00:35:01,446 --> 00:35:04,609
Drinks, champagne, and whatever.
547
00:35:10,989 --> 00:35:13,219
You're a very interesting woman.
548
00:35:13,291 --> 00:35:15,384
And the day is still young.
549
00:35:32,811 --> 00:35:34,972
We're in luck. I know this program.
550
00:35:39,284 --> 00:35:40,979
Quick, under here.
551
00:35:41,052 --> 00:35:43,520
- What about you?
- Just stay there.
552
00:36:19,491 --> 00:36:22,221
Oh, that was close. Where did you hide?
553
00:36:23,261 --> 00:36:26,697
Here. Look, let's not waste any time
in case he comes back.
554
00:36:26,764 --> 00:36:29,927
So tell me.
What's next for Preston Carpenter?
555
00:36:30,235 --> 00:36:32,100
Running for President?
556
00:36:34,138 --> 00:36:37,869
Perhaps. But only as an interim step.
557
00:36:38,409 --> 00:36:40,001
Interim to what?
558
00:36:40,445 --> 00:36:44,211
My next goal is to convince
the governments of the world...
559
00:36:44,282 --> 00:36:46,750
that we need an international federation.
560
00:36:46,818 --> 00:36:49,343
A United Nations with real teeth.
561
00:36:50,054 --> 00:36:53,285
A government to govern all governments.
562
00:36:53,725 --> 00:36:56,421
And who could possibly head such a body?
563
00:36:56,995 --> 00:36:59,623
I'm betting this is his subdirectory.
564
00:37:01,266 --> 00:37:03,632
It might be it,
but we need a password to get in.
565
00:37:03,701 --> 00:37:08,001
Try Kane. K-A-N-E.
Linda says he has a Citizen Kane fixation.
566
00:37:11,442 --> 00:37:14,036
That's not it. What else could it be?
567
00:37:14,546 --> 00:37:15,774
Rosebud.
568
00:37:16,314 --> 00:37:18,305
Great minds think alike.
569
00:37:20,852 --> 00:37:22,149
We're in.
570
00:37:22,620 --> 00:37:26,147
Look, here's the editorial
that ran with the hotel fire.
571
00:37:26,291 --> 00:37:30,557
And of the building inspections that
happened the day of the elevator accident.
572
00:37:31,529 --> 00:37:33,053
Wait a minute.
573
00:37:33,631 --> 00:37:36,498
"An eye for an eye is the only course
this country can take...
574
00:37:36,568 --> 00:37:39,503
"after today's brutal assassination
of Secretary Wallace...
575
00:37:39,571 --> 00:37:41,937
"at his hotel by Omer extremists."
576
00:37:42,006 --> 00:37:44,702
- Secretary Wallace isn't dead.
- Not yet.
577
00:37:45,843 --> 00:37:50,041
Carpenter is willing to kill a member
of the Cabinet to sell a few papers?
578
00:37:50,114 --> 00:37:51,979
To drag us into a war.
579
00:37:52,116 --> 00:37:56,610
And he's also willing to kill Linda if
he finds out that she's on to him. Let's go.
580
00:37:57,255 --> 00:37:59,086
- Lois.
- I'm coming already.
581
00:38:04,262 --> 00:38:06,196
Hey, you two. Take off.
582
00:38:06,698 --> 00:38:08,598
They're on their way.
583
00:38:15,306 --> 00:38:17,365
- He wants us inside.
- Go.
584
00:38:21,045 --> 00:38:24,572
Everything's set. The chef would like
to see you in the kitchen.
585
00:38:24,949 --> 00:38:26,849
All right.
Will you excuse me for a moment?
586
00:38:26,918 --> 00:38:28,180
- I'll come with you.
- No.
587
00:38:28,252 --> 00:38:31,050
Please, just order dessert for us.
588
00:38:36,394 --> 00:38:38,954
Here you go. $5.50. Thanks.
589
00:38:44,068 --> 00:38:46,798
What are you doing here?
You're gonna blow everything.
590
00:38:46,871 --> 00:38:48,702
Carpenter's gonna kill Secretary Wallace.
591
00:38:48,773 --> 00:38:52,971
He's already written the editorial.
He's just waiting for your exclusive report.
592
00:38:53,044 --> 00:38:55,035
Stay here while I go warn the Secretary.
593
00:38:55,113 --> 00:38:57,377
I guess we know
who calls the shots on your team.
594
00:38:57,448 --> 00:39:00,383
You don't know anything.
Stay here, I'm going after Clark.
595
00:39:00,451 --> 00:39:01,679
Nice try.
596
00:39:09,193 --> 00:39:10,626
There they are.
597
00:39:11,095 --> 00:39:12,323
Come on.
598
00:39:17,001 --> 00:39:18,298
This way.
599
00:39:23,274 --> 00:39:25,174
Right through the door, sir.
600
00:39:33,451 --> 00:39:35,419
Okay, boys, gather around.
601
00:39:36,254 --> 00:39:38,848
One of us should call the police.
The other should stay.
602
00:39:38,923 --> 00:39:41,050
- Call the police.
- I was thinking you'd do that.
603
00:39:41,125 --> 00:39:42,592
Think again.
604
00:39:44,862 --> 00:39:46,989
- I'm here on the roof across the street.
- Right.
605
00:39:47,065 --> 00:39:49,625
- You two set up here and here.
- Okay.
606
00:39:49,701 --> 00:39:52,329
- You fire when you hear my shot.
- You got it.
607
00:39:52,537 --> 00:39:54,402
What about your friend?
608
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,169
I'll take care of her.
609
00:40:13,024 --> 00:40:14,719
Well, my dear...
610
00:40:15,059 --> 00:40:19,052
I guess I don't have to tell you
that I've been detained, do I?
611
00:40:30,374 --> 00:40:34,504
I have to tell you I'm truly sorry
that things turned out this way.
612
00:40:34,812 --> 00:40:39,545
But then, the two of you are going
to make a fantastic 48-point headline.
613
00:40:45,590 --> 00:40:49,549
Breathe deeply, girls.
The Freon's better than freezing to death.
614
00:40:53,164 --> 00:40:54,654
Life is cruel.
615
00:40:55,566 --> 00:40:58,330
Don't get philosophical.
It was never your strength.
616
00:40:58,402 --> 00:41:02,600
Well, don't you find it ironic
that you and I have to die together?
617
00:41:02,874 --> 00:41:04,705
- We were best friends.
- Were.
618
00:41:05,476 --> 00:41:08,172
Okay. Let's clear this up once and for all.
619
00:41:08,246 --> 00:41:12,182
Let's not. If there is someone on the
other side that asks, we'll just say we did.
620
00:41:12,250 --> 00:41:16,016
You think I stole Paul Bender from you.
I didn't. You weren't even dating him.
621
00:41:16,087 --> 00:41:18,214
I was dating him.
622
00:41:18,289 --> 00:41:19,313
He came on to me.
623
00:41:19,390 --> 00:41:21,824
Well, you had no will power, huh?
624
00:41:22,460 --> 00:41:25,088
None. I would've done anything for Paul.
625
00:41:25,163 --> 00:41:28,496
Just like you had no will power
when you stole my story.
626
00:41:28,566 --> 00:41:33,060
Okay, so I was weak.
That doesn't mean I wasn't a good friend.
627
00:41:33,704 --> 00:41:37,572
It just means
that I wasn't as strong as you.
628
00:41:38,776 --> 00:41:41,040
Wait a minute. Just wait a minute.
629
00:41:41,112 --> 00:41:44,513
You're backing into an apology
by arguing that you stole my guy...
630
00:41:44,582 --> 00:41:47,847
and my story because you were
under the influence of your hormones?
631
00:41:47,919 --> 00:41:51,787
And because I was your best girlfriend,
I was supposed to forgive you then?
632
00:41:51,856 --> 00:41:55,519
And I'm not suppose to make a big deal
of it now? Is that what you're saying?
633
00:41:55,593 --> 00:41:56,582
Right.
634
00:41:58,396 --> 00:42:01,160
Okay, I forgive you.
635
00:42:38,569 --> 00:42:40,833
You'll be all right in a few minutes.
636
00:42:41,038 --> 00:42:44,132
- You have to save him now.
- I know.
637
00:43:38,663 --> 00:43:41,325
- Where did he come from?
- I don't know.
638
00:43:43,367 --> 00:43:45,062
- Come on. Go.
- I'm going.
639
00:43:46,037 --> 00:43:48,870
- Drive the car! What are you waiting for?
- It's not moving.
640
00:43:53,244 --> 00:43:55,178
- She did it again.
- What?
641
00:43:55,246 --> 00:43:57,714
The byline. "By Clark Kent and Lois Lane.
642
00:43:57,782 --> 00:44:00,376
"Special contribution by Linda King."
643
00:44:00,584 --> 00:44:02,916
- All right.
- How did she do that?
644
00:44:06,490 --> 00:44:08,958
Mr. White is such a generous man.
645
00:44:09,026 --> 00:44:10,584
You have no shame.
646
00:44:10,661 --> 00:44:13,926
Yes, I do. Not a lot, but some.
647
00:44:14,231 --> 00:44:15,459
So, what's next for you?
648
00:44:15,533 --> 00:44:17,592
I've taken a job on the Coast.
649
00:44:17,668 --> 00:44:20,865
You wanna keep our team together
and come with me?
650
00:44:21,539 --> 00:44:23,063
I'm kidding.
651
00:44:24,075 --> 00:44:27,010
- Lois, I want to say something to you.
- Don't.
652
00:44:27,078 --> 00:44:30,070
When you accepted my apology,
it meant a lot to me.
653
00:44:30,147 --> 00:44:32,741
Not to me. I thought I was dying.
I wanted a clean slate.
654
00:44:32,817 --> 00:44:35,650
You don't mean that.
She doesn't mean that.
655
00:44:36,754 --> 00:44:38,244
Okay, she means it.
656
00:44:38,322 --> 00:44:39,448
Look at it this way.
657
00:44:39,523 --> 00:44:44,256
Maybe you're the reporter you are because
of the competition you felt with me.
658
00:44:44,395 --> 00:44:48,491
Not only am I supposed to accept your
apology, but I'm supposed to thank you?
659
00:44:48,566 --> 00:44:51,433
So, Linda, what paper are you going
to work with on the Coast?
660
00:44:51,502 --> 00:44:53,367
No paper. I'm out of the news.
661
00:44:53,437 --> 00:44:55,997
I just optioned the film rights
to my inside story...
662
00:44:56,073 --> 00:44:58,598
to Preston Carpenter's fall from grace.
663
00:44:58,676 --> 00:45:02,772
It's obscene how much money these
Hollywood producers can throw at you.
664
00:45:02,847 --> 00:45:04,337
So, who's gonna play you?
665
00:45:04,415 --> 00:45:06,246
I don't know. They'll get some big name.
666
00:45:06,317 --> 00:45:10,083
But I did have it put in my contract
that I get to play one of the small parts.
667
00:45:10,154 --> 00:45:11,815
What part is that?
668
00:45:12,823 --> 00:45:14,950
I'll try and do you justice.
669
00:45:17,928 --> 00:45:18,952
Bye.
