[crowd cheering]

Strike!

That pitcher got a delivery as pretty as anything I've seen.

And an iron arm too.

[crowd cheering]

Hey, alright! Now, that's baseball, huh?

[crowd cheering]

Time!

[crowd applauding]

What's that thing on the field, the mascot?

(male $100 each game. But he's worth it.

Yeah, well, all he ever does is hold up the action.

What's he doing?

(male announcer) Now, batting for Shuster, number 16.

[crowd cheering]

(male Attention, everybody!

You are in danger. A bomb will explode in 30 seconds.

This is your only warning.

Leave this complex immediately.

How about us getting out of here?

I'm not letting any weirdo chase me off my job.

Besides, they're bluffing.

[ominous music]

Come on. Let's play ball.

Maybe it'll calm down the crowd. Come on!

(male announcer) Stay calm, please! Keep to your seats, everybody.

The game will continue.

[engine revving]

[intense music]

[crowd cheering]

[shrill squeal]

[crowd cheering]

Come on, let's play ball.

Where'd he go?

Coach says I'm to pinch-hit for you.

Go get 'em.

(male announcer) Substituting for number 16, number 7.

Come on!

Clark?

[crowd cheering]

He he!

[explosion]

I've loved before

- Beautiful, Clark. Beautiful. - That was splendid.

Oh, what are you guys doing here?

Oh, man!

Okay, Clark, I said a level, not an audition.

- Everybody's a critic-- - Hey, let an expert try it.

Uh, the Boardwalk and Baseball amusement park..

(Lana) T.J.!

...when homerun hitter, Clark Kent slammed a bomb

out of the stadium, thereby preventing

injury and possible death.

(Clark) Okay, T.J., that's enough.

- Hey, there's Judd! - 'Hey.'

Mr. Faust, Clark Kent, Shuster Herald.

- Judd. - T.J. White.

Alright. Can I get one more shot there?

Uh, one's my quota for the day.

The sound crew.

(Clark) And of course, uh, Marilyn.

Hi.

- Betsy. - Hi.

- Susan. - Mm-hmm.

And Lana.

- I really love your music. - Thank you.

(Clark) Judd's in town to get his

honorary masters degree in music.

And he's graciously agreed to do a concert for us, student body.

Well, it's the least I could do for my Alma mater.

- Judd, ready when you are. - Oh, great. Let's go.

- Excuse me. - Yeah.

Testing one, one.

that may never show

can just be physical

It's okay?

Wow, isn't he great?

Anyway, after I retired from baseball

I signed on here as manager of this park.

Anything else I can tell you?

Yeah. Why the bombing yesterday?

Oh, there are bunch of incidences.

The bomb was the first Major League scare.

Couple of weeks ago

all the refrigeration units in the cafeteria blew out.

Spoiled about $10,000, $12,000 worth of hotdogs and ice cream.

And the inspector said that was no accident.

Come here, let me show you something else.

Not exactly the Mississippi, is it?

You know you can't have flume rides without water.

And you can't have water if somebody sabotages

your water pumps.

Andy, you must have some idea who, who's hassling you.

About a month ago, I got a visit from this guy

who says he's a representative of a conglomerate that, uh..

...in-interested in buying the park.

(Andy) And not only that, but he's offering a pretty good penny.

I said to him, "Forget it, fella.

People who own it aren't interested in selling."

He says to me

like he didn't even hear what I said, "They'll sell."

And two days later, that's when the mischief began.

[shrieks]

He didn't make it. He's still hanging down there.

[indistinct chattering]

This looks like fun. How about it, huh?

We're here as reporters, T.J.

Hey, I didn't suggest we dive off the Golden Gate Bridge.

I'm sorry.

- It bothers you, doesn't it? - It doesn't bother me!

- Yeah. - Maybe it bothers me.

It's not like I've a right to be upset.

Say that again.

Wanna etch that in my brain for future generations.

[whimsical music]

Hey, guys!

- Hey. - Hey, guys.

Didn't know you guys were coming here today.

Ah, neither did we.

You guys wanna hit the Ferris wheel?

Thanks, Judd. I think we're gonna go--

I accept for the two of us.

Great.

- Beautiful, isn't it? - Mm-hmm.

I collect matchbook covers from all around the world.

Take a look at it. It's unique.

[pleasant music]

(male everybody! Attention.

You are in danger. Another warning. Lights out.

Andy, we're cutting in the backup generator.

You again?

Do you even know what trouble you've caused me?

[intense music]

Our last and final offer.

Get away from me.

[music continues]

You senile old fool! You should've taken the offer.

I'm going to call the police.

(T.J.) What a mansion! But do we need a tour of it?

Please try not to touch anything.

Follow me and I'll show you my comic book collection.

Oh, Judd, you're terrific. I mean for having us all here.

But a little weird..

I've been collecting comics five, six years now.

They're great. Totally cool.

Yeah, I can sit in here for hours.

After a most unusual lunch, Judd Faust took us for a tour--

I mean, you could do ten columns on his collections, huh?

Obsessions of the rich and famous.

[laughing]

Yeah, it is kind of weird.

What did he have in that last room? A 150 neon signs?

I stopped counting after I went color-blind.

(Lana) Would you guys come on?

(Judd) This is my favorite collection.

makes the flame of each other

in the same way

the fast way to my heart

for love to be heard

Do you speak French

the feeling in your heart

[car revving]

[intense music]

[shrill squeal]

(man on recorder) Attention!

Attention, everybody. You are in danger.

Serious danger, pal.

Now, turn it off.

Are you crazy? This man is my guest.

Clark, please forgive him. He's my manager.

He probably thought you're a burglar. Didn't you?

Yeah.

(man on recorder) A bomb will explode in 30 seconds.

An offer was made to buy Boardwalk and Baseball.

When it was refused, a bomb was detonated evidently by your man.

It appears he was acting on your orders.

It would certainly seem so. Is this your equipment?

Did I have anything to do with your outrageous acts?

No, Judd. No, no.

I'm gonna have to call the police, Charles.

No.

(Judd) Operator, will you get me the police?

Will you please go in the house?

Clark, will you please join the others?

Hello, police, this is Judd Faust.

Wasn't Clark supposed to be here?

He went to tell Andy that Charles

the guy who's been bothering him, he's in jail now.

that will never show

[intense music]

What's goin' on?

Getting drunk on the job? Ha ha ha.

Violating your trust as manager of this glorious park.

Causing the death of innocent people.

[chuckling]

How happy your employers are gonna be

to get rid of this hard-luck property.

[laughing]

that will never show

it gets me physical

love or is it sex

[crowd applauding]

- Did you like it? - Wonderful.

Almost a perfect day.

I'm gonna make it perfect.

Andy?

[theme music]

[screaming]

Are you okay?

Oh. I've been banged up worse before.

Are you sure you're okay?

As long as I never see that guy again.

I thought he was in jail.

What the..

(Charles) Hey, put me down!

[screaming]

There's one last collection I'm gonna show you.

Only special girls get to see this, Lana.

[sighs]

You collect, um...torture instruments?

(Judd) No.

I collect the screams of torture victims.

[screaming]

[mumbling]

Cut it out. This isn't funny.

I don't like this game, Judd.

- You'll get to like it. - Judd!

- Where is Judd? Isn't he here? - No.

Bet Andy was happy when you told him that Charles is in jail.

He is now. Charles tried to kill Andy on Judd's orders.

Let's call the police and let them take it from, from here.

- What's the matter? - It's Lana. She went with Judd.

Hey! Hey, wait for me.

Stop the instruments. It's killing me.

I can't imagine the exquisite pleasure you are gonna feel.

That we'll both feel.

When I put this to my digital sampler

my next album will be perfect.

[Lana screaming]

And that's..

Excellent. Excellent.

[Lana screaming]

Not quite as good as the other three.

Put force. Excellent. Excellent.

[screaming]

Two more twists.

(Lana) Superboy, no!

(Lana) Judd said something like not as good as the other three.

What happened to them?

You don't wanna know.

Yeah, I do.

The police found them.

They were buried in the basement.

He's a collector alright.

Weirdo collector.

You know, I don't understand the amusement park thing.

Why did he want that so badly?

The police psychiatrist, he said that he wanted it so badly

because he couldn't have it.

I guess an extreme recession like that

can make a weirdo out of anybody.
