All language subtitles for 11. Supermans Dilemma

Clark and Lois trace a mysterious electrical signal,

which has been sent out by Dr. Graham and Jimmy Olsen,

prisoners of the Spider Lady in a secret laboratory.

Following radio directions from Clark,

Lois finds the building,

unaware that the prisoners have been taken away

and a deadly trap has been set.

Lois. Come in.

Come in, Lois.

I'm afraid something's happened.

Keep trying to contact Miss Lane.

Miss Lane.

Miss Lane.

Why have I been brought back here?

You'll soon find out, doctor.

Dr. Graham, your attempt to escape

was a complete failure.

Obviously then, I must try again.

I doubt whether you'll get another chance.

From now on, you'll be confined in this cave.

Do you realize that the authorities

aided by Superman are searching for me?

Not even Superman can find you here.

His x-ray vision can't penetrate

the lead walls of this mountain.

So you have no other choice but to obey me.

And develop the Reducer Ray to suit my purposes.

Who built this duplicate of my invention?

I did, doctor.

But it needs the finishing touch.

Mechanical secrets that only you know.

You'll never learn them from me.

You might change your mind.

Driller, take him below

and see if you can persuade him.

All right.

Come along.

Fine staff I have.

You get yourselves in all kinds of trouble,

but I can't print that.

You mean the public isn't interested

in what happens to reporters?

Nobody is, except me.

I wanna keep you all alive

so I can find out where Dr. Graham is.

That's easy. He's a prisoner of the Spider Lady.

Now if you'll just tell me where,

I'll know everything.

Wherever it is, you can be sure

Graham won't get another chance to communicate with us.

Oh, sooner or later, the Spider Lady

will make a move that will give her away,

and we've just got to be alert for it.

Clark, you've solved the whole thing for us.

Driller tells me you've decided

to cooperate with us, doctor.

Anything I do is under protest.

Never mind the speeches. Are you ready to start work?

Very well.

Before I do, I need a supply of a certain chemical

called mono chromite.

Mono chromite?

So that's one of the secret materials.

I've heard of it. It's quite rare.

Where can it be obtained?

Any chemical engineer can process it for you.

I'll write it down and give you the formula if you wish.

Driller, send some of the men to get it for us.

Hackett, copy this so it won't be in his handwriting.

All right, Mr. Cameron.

I'll have that shipment over at 9 in the morning.

Come in.

Mr. Larkin? Yes.

Can you supply us with this material?

Mono chromite?

That's a new metallurgical compound.

I'll have to check my supply index.

It will take at least two hours

to produce the minimum amount.

Where do you want it delivered?

We'll come back and get it.

Perry White, please.

It's important.

Hello.

Who?

Fred Larkin.

How are you, Fred?

What?

That's the special material that Graham is using.

Just which of the authorities should I notify?

I'll send a man down who will tell you what to do.

Hold everything till he gets there.

Send Kent in.

Kent speaking.

Be right in.

Copy boy.

Kent, I've got a hot assignment for you.

Good. Go to 220 Lexington Road.

There's a man there, has a tip that may lead to Graham.

Get the story, pull it in, follow any leads.

Then we'll contact the authorities.

All right.

Hello. Oh, hello, sergeant.

Uh, say, can I call you back?

Don't I work here anymore?

Sure, su... What's the trouble?

Why should Clark have that Graham story exclusively?

Maybe I could uncover a different angle.

Stop selling me.

You can go along if you want.

Thanks, chief.

Yes, yes, but I have...

No, I've...

No. I...

No, I believe you have that wrong, sergeant.

No, that isn't...

But listen.

I know.

I know, yes.

No no.

But I tell you, sergeant, I didn't write that story.

Jimmy, will you wait for me downstairs?

Gloria, will you report that my car's been stolen?

You know the license number.

But I...

Well, I tell you, I didn't write the article.

No, that's right.

That's right. Thank you.

Hey, where's your car?

Oh, we're taking the Planet coupe.

Meet you at the corner.

Okay.

Has.

Hey, I need that car.

Sorry. Use mine. It's in the alley.

Hey, that cop is stopping Clark.

I had an idea that would happen.

You pulled some trick on him, didn't you?

Who, me? Why, Jimmy.

This is a stolen car. That's all I know.

But I tell you, I'm a reporter on the Daily Planet.

You'll have to tell it to the justice of the peace.

Let's go.

Come in.

We're from the Daily Planet.

Miss Lois Lane?

Yes, and this is Jimmy Olsen.

Mr. Olsen.

Would you be seated, Miss Lane?

Thank you.

Mr. White sent us to get the story from you.

It's just as I told him over the phone.

Two suspicious characters came here

asking for mono chromite.

That is a restricted material

Dr. Graham is using in his Reducer Ray machine.

Where are these men now?

They should be back here at 3:00.

Three o'clock?

I'm supposed to notify the proper authorities.

White said he was sending you here to advise me.

That's right.

The first thing we wanna do is get a line on these men

and find out where they're from.

Why?

Because whoever employs these men

is holding Graham a prisoner.

If we handle this right,

we can learn where they're holding him.

Oh. What do you want me to do?

We've got an idea.

If you'll check with Perry White at the Daily Planet,

he'll verify my story.

The judge will take care of that.

He's out to lunch right now.

When will he be back?

Oh, pretty soon.

He doesn't take more than a couple hours to eat.

This is it, mister.

This is swell.

When they come, I'll be in this case.

Get them to sign a receipt if you can.

Right.

Jimmy, you're taking an awful chance.

Why can't you and I follow them in the car?

Because we'd have to keep too far back

to prevent them from noticing us.

And they might give us a slip.

But once I'm in this case on their truck,

I can watch just what route they take.

Here they come now.

Where can I hide?

In that closet.

Come in.

Is this the stuff for us?

That's it. Good.

Now, if you'll just sign this, please.

I'm not signing anything.

Oh, but it's necessary. I can't let this go...

Ah!

Wait a minute.

Well.

It's that newspaper gal.

What are you doing here, sister?

Well, nothing.

As a matter of fact, I just got here.

Yeah? Well, as a matter of fact,

you can just stay here. Get in here.

All right, take it away.

Oh, say.

I've got to get out of here.

Your date with the judge comes up first.

Now, just relax.

Again, Superman makes use of his x-ray vision.

And Jimmy's in the packing case on the truck.

Take care of her.

You better take a look and see if there's any damage.

Hey, we've been crossed up.

What do you mean?

There's a guy back there in that packing case.

Hm.

That crate is gonna be his coffin.

Take it easy. Maybe he's got a gun.

What dire peril does Lois face now?

Will the Spider Lady stop at nothing

to accomplish her purpose?

You can't afford to miss "Blast in the Depths,"

chapter 12 of Superman, at this theater next week.
