1
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:03,230
Previously on Smallville:
2
00:00:03,452 --> 00:00:04,852
A darkness has come to Earth.
3
00:00:05,118 --> 00:00:06,791
This isn't your fight.
4
00:00:07,077 --> 00:00:08,909
I'm not gonna stand
here and do nothing.
5
00:00:09,244 --> 00:00:12,123
You've been on Earth all
this time and you can't even fly.
6
00:00:13,327 --> 00:00:18,038
The woman that I, uh... That I love,
she sacrificed everything to protect me.
7
00:00:18,412 --> 00:00:22,088
First I'll eat, and then
I'll molt and then I'll mate.
8
00:00:23,620 --> 00:00:27,899
I am the Brain interactive
Construct. Do not underestimate me.
9
00:00:32,329 --> 00:00:35,128
It is safer if you stay in the
shadows. It's safer for all heroes.
10
00:00:35,413 --> 00:00:38,531
Maybe people deserve to
know the truth. I am Green Arrow.
11
00:00:40,372 --> 00:00:43,490
There is darkness in
you and great power.
12
00:00:43,831 --> 00:00:46,585
You're afraid you'll never
be the hero you wanna be.
13
00:00:46,872 --> 00:00:49,990
You will never
be Earth's savoir.
14
00:01:01,915 --> 00:01:03,747
Good question.
15
00:01:14,791 --> 00:01:16,987
Maybe you were right, Jor-El.
16
00:01:19,375 --> 00:01:21,446
Maybe I'm not the one.
17
00:01:22,333 --> 00:01:23,369
Maybe none of us are.
18
00:01:31,751 --> 00:01:35,631
Lois. Hey, I'm sorry, I've
kind of been out of it lately.
19
00:01:35,960 --> 00:01:37,235
I left you a message.
20
00:01:37,460 --> 00:01:39,656
Yeah, three days
ago. You feeling better?
21
00:01:42,002 --> 00:01:43,436
Well, no worries.
22
00:01:43,669 --> 00:01:45,661
You didn't miss anything
in the news department.
23
00:01:45,919 --> 00:01:46,989
Okay.
24
00:01:47,252 --> 00:01:49,721
Seems the Blur took a
little vacation this week too.
25
00:01:51,461 --> 00:01:53,737
- There must be something going around.
- Hmm.
26
00:01:58,629 --> 00:02:00,666
Hero haters.
27
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,038
Just when you think the world
couldn't get more upside-down, right?
28
00:02:06,254 --> 00:02:09,531
People don't wanna put their hope in
someone who's gonna let them down.
29
00:02:16,421 --> 00:02:19,573
He never would let us down.
30
00:02:19,881 --> 00:02:22,077
The Blur, I mean.
31
00:02:23,047 --> 00:02:25,207
And this person, for one,
is gonna stand by her hero...
32
00:02:25,339 --> 00:02:28,935
no matter how much mud they sling.
- Why?
33
00:02:30,548 --> 00:02:33,746
Because that's what you do
when you believe in someone.
34
00:02:38,506 --> 00:02:41,499
You know what you
need? A pick-me-up.
35
00:02:45,674 --> 00:02:49,190
Thanks, Lois, but I don't think playing
quarterback is gonna make my day.
36
00:02:49,508 --> 00:02:50,862
Depends on the cheerleader.
37
00:02:53,050 --> 00:02:56,043
Come on, did you forget?
Tomorrow's our Smallville High reunion.
38
00:02:58,258 --> 00:03:00,136
- Did you say our reunion?
- Yes.
39
00:03:00,383 --> 00:03:03,342
- You were enrolled there for, like...
- Twenty-three days.
40
00:03:04,384 --> 00:03:07,218
- You showed up for five.
- That's a record in my book.
41
00:03:07,510 --> 00:03:10,030
Smallville's the closest thing
to a past this military brat has.
42
00:03:10,260 --> 00:03:12,650
And I am not gonna miss it.
43
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,639
We don't have to be dating to
show up at a reunion together.
44
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,150
There's a lot of
memories there for me, I...
45
00:03:21,427 --> 00:03:23,419
Come on, Clark, it
would mean a lot to me.
46
00:03:24,052 --> 00:03:29,525
Seeing all those familiar faces.
It's like I had a place, like I fit in.
47
00:03:30,386 --> 00:03:31,536
And you...
48
00:03:31,762 --> 00:03:36,154
I mean, you put the "Smallville"
in Smallville, Smallville.
49
00:03:36,804 --> 00:03:39,080
Besides, what's the worst
thing that could happen?
50
00:03:49,346 --> 00:03:54,137
I've wasted a decade picking up the
pieces from meteor-mutant students.
51
00:03:55,971 --> 00:03:59,647
"How do I get into college
with a criminal record?"
52
00:04:00,431 --> 00:04:02,866
You can't, freak.
53
00:04:03,848 --> 00:04:08,923
You see, I have spent
years hearing their stories.
54
00:04:09,306 --> 00:04:10,306
And... And no...
55
00:04:10,515 --> 00:04:15,749
No matter how crazy they are,
they always mention one person.
56
00:04:17,307 --> 00:04:18,307
You.
57
00:04:22,683 --> 00:04:25,243
Clark Kent.
58
00:04:25,516 --> 00:04:29,795
So nice of you to come back
to the reunion, save me a trip.
59
00:04:30,141 --> 00:04:35,819
Looks like your bill is up
and it is time for you to pay.
60
00:04:47,893 --> 00:04:50,852
It's time to move
on from the past.
61
00:04:51,393 --> 00:04:53,225
Leave Clark Kent to me.
62
00:05:57,940 --> 00:06:00,614
Guess I just haven't
been back in a while.
63
00:06:05,650 --> 00:06:10,088
Oh. There's Eddie
from chem class. Hey.
64
00:06:10,442 --> 00:06:13,355
Oh, and Jake and the
cupcake girl are together now.
65
00:06:14,984 --> 00:06:18,102
Hi. Sally "Pep Rally"
Dickinson has put on a few.
66
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,234
Lois, I don't really have a
good feeling about all this.
67
00:06:27,402 --> 00:06:30,713
Nietzsche? I didn't realize
you had a dark side, Clark.
68
00:06:33,152 --> 00:06:36,224
- Well, doesn't everybody?
- Yeah, I guess so.
69
00:06:39,777 --> 00:06:43,168
So, what are you,
man or superman?
70
00:06:54,779 --> 00:06:57,169
Well, look who
it is. Clark Kent.
71
00:06:58,238 --> 00:07:00,673
Have I got something for you.
72
00:07:01,404 --> 00:07:03,316
A hug.
73
00:07:04,738 --> 00:07:06,138
Um, thanks.
74
00:07:06,363 --> 00:07:09,595
Oh, now, don't leave early.
We've got a special treat for you.
75
00:07:13,781 --> 00:07:14,781
A couple more hugs...
76
00:07:14,989 --> 00:07:18,187
and maybe you'll have the
bah-humbugs squeezed out of you.
77
00:07:37,699 --> 00:07:39,258
Welcome back. Isn't this great?
78
00:07:39,491 --> 00:07:41,847
I have the whole day
mapped out for you.
79
00:07:42,617 --> 00:07:44,495
Adelia. Laney.
80
00:07:44,742 --> 00:07:47,052
- Lois Lane. Chess Club?
- Uh...
81
00:07:47,325 --> 00:07:49,362
I sat through an
entire game once?
82
00:07:49,617 --> 00:07:51,927
- Whatever.
- Come on, let's go.
83
00:07:52,617 --> 00:07:54,131
Mark.
84
00:07:54,659 --> 00:07:56,696
Hey, Mark. Smoking times, huh?
85
00:07:58,742 --> 00:07:59,742
Should I know you?
86
00:07:59,992 --> 00:08:02,192
Like you don't remember
behind the gym on a smoke break?
87
00:08:02,452 --> 00:08:04,967
I mean, I was chewing
gum at the time, but...
88
00:08:05,244 --> 00:08:07,315
Really? Nothing.
89
00:08:07,577 --> 00:08:09,967
Hey, Lois. Let's, um, go inside.
90
00:08:12,744 --> 00:08:14,098
Clark.
91
00:08:14,702 --> 00:08:16,694
Ha, ha. I can't
believe you're here.
92
00:08:16,952 --> 00:08:18,989
What happened to
the bumbling nerd?
93
00:08:24,244 --> 00:08:25,314
Susan Capra.
94
00:08:26,203 --> 00:08:30,880
Suzanne, actually.
You always mixed us up.
95
00:08:31,246 --> 00:08:33,124
Well, you haven't changed a bit.
96
00:08:34,413 --> 00:08:35,449
Bak, bak, Crow.
97
00:08:36,496 --> 00:08:37,532
Oh.
98
00:08:38,746 --> 00:08:41,386
- Oh. Here you go.
- Thank you.
99
00:08:43,455 --> 00:08:44,809
Are you his plus one?
100
00:08:50,580 --> 00:08:52,139
I went to school here, people.
101
00:08:57,956 --> 00:09:01,154
Lane. Lane, Lane, Lane.
102
00:09:06,623 --> 00:09:08,057
Lang.
103
00:09:10,665 --> 00:09:13,544
Wow, old flames.
104
00:09:16,500 --> 00:09:20,096
I should've known this would
happen. I haven't seen her since...
105
00:09:20,417 --> 00:09:23,330
your barn when
we were about to...
106
00:09:25,375 --> 00:09:27,287
She's not coming.
107
00:09:29,625 --> 00:09:32,345
I forgot how many
memories you have here.
108
00:09:49,794 --> 00:09:52,832
It started out as a scrapbook
and just kind of mutated.
109
00:09:53,127 --> 00:09:54,447
What is it?
110
00:09:54,669 --> 00:09:57,582
I call it the Wall of Weird.
111
00:10:00,544 --> 00:10:01,544
So, what do you think?
112
00:10:02,711 --> 00:10:04,111
Clark.
113
00:10:07,462 --> 00:10:08,462
I'm sorry.
114
00:10:11,338 --> 00:10:13,694
Maybe I shouldn't have
brought you back here.
115
00:10:15,171 --> 00:10:17,766
Oh, my God.
116
00:10:18,088 --> 00:10:21,559
- You were friends with Chloe Sullivan.
- Yeah, what happened to her?
117
00:10:21,921 --> 00:10:25,073
She was the rising star of the
Daily Planet like she always dreamed.
118
00:10:25,422 --> 00:10:27,334
- And now...
- It's like she just vanished.
119
00:10:27,588 --> 00:10:30,023
Like someone found out
that she knew too much.
120
00:10:31,173 --> 00:10:34,564
Looks like somebody took a bite
out of Chloe's conspiracy cookie.
121
00:10:34,881 --> 00:10:37,840
I'm sorry to disappoint you,
but Chloe couldn't make it.
122
00:10:39,882 --> 00:10:43,000
Wait a minute, I know
you. You're Lois Lane.
123
00:10:43,340 --> 00:10:45,172
Yes, thank you.
124
00:10:45,465 --> 00:10:47,536
You dated the Green
Arrow, a.k.a. Oliver...
125
00:10:48,090 --> 00:10:49,649
- Oliver Queen.
- Oliver Queen.
126
00:10:51,799 --> 00:10:54,109
What's it like to date
a real superhero?
127
00:10:54,674 --> 00:10:57,667
It... It was really
quick, just a flash.
128
00:10:57,967 --> 00:11:01,483
But I would date one
again in a heartbeat.
129
00:11:02,550 --> 00:11:05,987
- So this is all that's left of the Torch?
- Are you kidding?
130
00:11:06,634 --> 00:11:08,705
We carry the Torch
with us every day.
131
00:11:08,967 --> 00:11:11,607
Everything you need to know about
the mysterious and unexplained.
132
00:11:11,926 --> 00:11:13,997
The Wall of Weird
has gone viral.
133
00:11:18,426 --> 00:11:21,100
- The Blur.
- What?
134
00:11:22,386 --> 00:11:24,662
Okay, promise
not to tell anyone.
135
00:11:24,927 --> 00:11:27,487
Okay, we have a theory
that the Blur was born...
136
00:11:27,761 --> 00:11:30,481
- And raised in Smallville.
- In Smallville.
137
00:11:30,761 --> 00:11:35,199
Okay, I think your virtual weird
wall has left you a pushpin short.
138
00:11:35,594 --> 00:11:37,267
You're the one who
writes about him.
139
00:11:37,511 --> 00:11:40,191
You seriously never considered
that all of these miraculous saves...
140
00:11:40,386 --> 00:11:42,026
that Chloe wrote
about in the Torch...
141
00:11:42,220 --> 00:11:44,815
started right before the Blur
showed up in Metropolis?
142
00:11:45,096 --> 00:11:47,531
I wouldn't waste any
more time on the Blur.
143
00:11:48,138 --> 00:11:51,609
Seems like he's gone away
and I'm not so sure he'll be back.
144
00:11:52,388 --> 00:11:56,905
I think what Clark is trying to
say, is that it's great that the Blur...
145
00:11:57,305 --> 00:12:00,662
has been there to be a role
model for kids like you to look up to.
146
00:12:01,013 --> 00:12:03,209
I mean, how many people
in the world has he inspired?
147
00:12:03,513 --> 00:12:07,063
Exactly. Maybe it's a good thing
he didn't show up for the reunion.
148
00:12:07,389 --> 00:12:11,269
- He would've stolen your thunder, Clark.
- What thunder?
149
00:12:13,932 --> 00:12:18,165
Okay, Crows, give it up for your
alumni homecoming king, Clark Kent.
150
00:12:19,890 --> 00:12:22,280
Now, this is the
homecoming I'm talking about.
151
00:12:22,557 --> 00:12:26,437
Thank God you squeaked out that
state championship in your senior year.
152
00:12:45,309 --> 00:12:47,983
One! Two! Three!
153
00:12:48,267 --> 00:12:50,020
Come on, Crows!
154
00:13:17,228 --> 00:13:22,826
My sincere apologies for interrupting
this festive trip down memory lane.
155
00:13:23,521 --> 00:13:27,037
- Brainiac. I thought we destroyed you.
- Hmm.
156
00:13:27,355 --> 00:13:29,312
Whatever you want,
leave these people out of it.
157
00:13:29,605 --> 00:13:32,484
Oh, don't worry,
I'm only here for you.
158
00:13:34,980 --> 00:13:37,415
I wanted to slow things down.
159
00:13:37,688 --> 00:13:40,248
Make sure you can soak
in this special moment.
160
00:13:42,439 --> 00:13:45,113
And what's so special
about this moment?
161
00:13:45,439 --> 00:13:48,637
This is the moment that
your life changes forever.
162
00:14:09,191 --> 00:14:12,031
I don't know if you're a ghost or the
darkness Jor-El warned me about...
163
00:14:12,275 --> 00:14:14,835
but this will come to an end
just like it did the last time.
164
00:14:15,109 --> 00:14:18,022
- I hope so, for your sake.
- For my sake?
165
00:14:18,317 --> 00:14:20,309
You sent the person
that I love away.
166
00:14:20,567 --> 00:14:23,446
You tried to destroy Chloe,
you tried to destroy the world.
167
00:14:23,776 --> 00:14:28,328
And you saved me from all that, Kal-El.
I've come back to do the same for you.
168
00:14:29,443 --> 00:14:32,641
The Legion? You're
from the future.
169
00:14:36,361 --> 00:14:38,273
- What did you do to them?
- I joined them.
170
00:14:38,986 --> 00:14:41,421
In the 31st century,
I'm known as Brainiac 5.
171
00:14:41,694 --> 00:14:43,572
The ring, time travel,
all my creations.
172
00:14:43,819 --> 00:14:46,778
I brought the Legion into
a new realm of heroism.
173
00:14:47,069 --> 00:14:51,780
- They helped me destroy you.
- No, they helped you cure me.
174
00:14:53,528 --> 00:14:56,805
The problem is, Kal-El,
you and I aren't very different.
175
00:14:57,112 --> 00:14:59,627
We were both created in
one way or another by Jor-El.
176
00:14:59,903 --> 00:15:05,103
Both intended to save civilizations,
to bring peace to a brutal world.
177
00:15:05,488 --> 00:15:10,040
But neither of us was immune
to corruption, to darkness.
178
00:15:10,405 --> 00:15:12,283
And what does that mean?
179
00:15:12,738 --> 00:15:14,934
Everyone's telling me
I've a darkness within me.
180
00:15:15,197 --> 00:15:18,508
But I don't understand what it is
or how I'm supposed to change it.
181
00:15:20,405 --> 00:15:22,636
You destroyed cities.
182
00:15:23,739 --> 00:15:27,210
I may not make the right decisions,
but at least I'm trying to save people.
183
00:15:27,532 --> 00:15:31,845
Then let me show you, Kal-El.
We can't always see it in ourselves.
184
00:15:33,490 --> 00:15:35,561
My corruption started
with a nanobyte.
185
00:15:37,365 --> 00:15:41,120
Smaller than the eye can
see. But that's all it took.
186
00:15:46,783 --> 00:15:48,934
My father's funeral.
187
00:16:01,034 --> 00:16:04,505
If you're trying to save me
somehow, why show me this?
188
00:16:05,368 --> 00:16:07,405
Because this was a
defining moment for you.
189
00:16:07,659 --> 00:16:09,218
Perhaps the defining moment.
190
00:16:09,785 --> 00:16:12,425
The day that you
started to blame yourself.
191
00:16:13,076 --> 00:16:15,147
Why wouldn't I?
192
00:16:15,702 --> 00:16:19,059
I chose to change fate. It
was my fault that he died.
193
00:16:19,369 --> 00:16:20,849
Was it?
194
00:16:29,953 --> 00:16:30,953
Dad.
195
00:16:31,162 --> 00:16:33,996
I won't let you
destroy my family.
196
00:16:38,537 --> 00:16:40,972
We can withstand anything
you bring down on us.
197
00:16:41,830 --> 00:16:43,105
Because we have each other.
198
00:16:43,788 --> 00:16:47,225
That's what will always separate
the Kents from the Luthors.
199
00:16:48,872 --> 00:16:50,750
Now, why don't you get...?
200
00:16:51,747 --> 00:16:54,262
- You can't change his fate.
- He was just protecting me.
201
00:16:54,539 --> 00:16:57,134
And that was his choice.
202
00:16:57,539 --> 00:16:59,219
Whether it happens
this day or any other...
203
00:16:59,372 --> 00:17:01,252
Jonathan set his own
destiny into the motion.
204
00:17:01,414 --> 00:17:02,814
You know that.
205
00:17:03,247 --> 00:17:05,557
You just won't let
yourself believe it.
206
00:17:12,707 --> 00:17:16,621
- Why won't you forgive yourself?
- He didn't have a choice.
207
00:17:17,041 --> 00:17:19,561
He's my father, of course he'd
sacrifice anything to protect me.
208
00:17:19,832 --> 00:17:22,392
We always have a choice, Kal-El.
209
00:17:23,166 --> 00:17:26,398
Your father didn't have to
care for you the way he did.
210
00:17:26,708 --> 00:17:29,621
Yet still he made that choice
every day he was with you.
211
00:17:29,917 --> 00:17:32,273
He chose to be your protector.
212
00:17:33,542 --> 00:17:36,341
Just as you've chosen
to be the Earth's protector.
213
00:17:37,293 --> 00:17:39,888
Nobody forced that on
you, yet you embraced it.
214
00:17:40,168 --> 00:17:42,160
Nobody made that choice for you.
215
00:17:42,709 --> 00:17:46,225
We all choose our own fate.
216
00:17:48,876 --> 00:17:51,266
Fans and protestors
alike are in an outcry...
217
00:17:51,543 --> 00:17:54,138
for the playboy-turned-Green
Arrow Oliver Queen...
218
00:17:54,419 --> 00:17:56,376
who dropped his
shocking announcement...
219
00:17:56,628 --> 00:17:58,426
and has since
vanished from society.
220
00:17:58,669 --> 00:18:02,219
I got kids. What happens when they
grow up and wanna be vigilantes like him?
221
00:18:03,086 --> 00:18:04,884
It's great he's helping
people, but we...
222
00:18:05,170 --> 00:18:08,208
- This isn't a memory.
- No, it isn't, it's the present.
223
00:18:08,503 --> 00:18:10,859
He lied to us all along.
224
00:18:11,128 --> 00:18:12,323
We can't trust him.
225
00:18:12,587 --> 00:18:14,499
If you're trying to
make me feel guilty...
226
00:18:14,754 --> 00:18:17,588
you just said that we
control our own fate.
227
00:18:17,879 --> 00:18:20,678
Oliver made his own decision
to come out to the public.
228
00:18:20,963 --> 00:18:23,283
He didn't think about what it
would mean to the rest of us.
229
00:18:23,505 --> 00:18:25,815
If you really are the
hero you say you are...
230
00:18:26,088 --> 00:18:28,284
don't you think it's
time to face the public?
231
00:18:28,547 --> 00:18:30,982
We're waiting for some answers.
232
00:18:35,964 --> 00:18:38,524
- Any calls?
- Where do you wanna start?
233
00:18:38,797 --> 00:18:41,153
CNN, BBC, Dr. Phil?
234
00:18:41,422 --> 00:18:43,539
No, I mean, any calls?
235
00:18:43,799 --> 00:18:48,828
- Oh, um, I'm sorry, sir.
- Mr. Kent hasn't left a word.
236
00:19:01,008 --> 00:19:03,921
He's always so Oliver. I
didn't know that he needed me.
237
00:19:04,216 --> 00:19:05,935
But he does.
238
00:19:09,426 --> 00:19:14,057
I don't know how not returning his calls
amounts to some darkness within me.
239
00:19:14,801 --> 00:19:16,554
You don't see it?
240
00:19:17,343 --> 00:19:19,539
The darkness is the past.
241
00:19:19,801 --> 00:19:21,599
And you hold on
to it and you dwell.
242
00:19:22,218 --> 00:19:25,768
You punish yourself and everyone
around you for past mistakes.
243
00:19:26,343 --> 00:19:29,097
We don't have the
privilege of mistakes.
244
00:19:29,385 --> 00:19:32,457
Even if we don't expect perfection
from ourselves, the world does.
245
00:19:32,761 --> 00:19:36,880
- You heard what they said.
- Then help Oliver be who he can be.
246
00:19:37,220 --> 00:19:40,657
Today, tomorrow.
Be there for him now.
247
00:19:41,011 --> 00:19:45,085
And stop punishing him for his past
with your silence and your distance.
248
00:19:46,137 --> 00:19:47,856
Let it go.
249
00:20:05,722 --> 00:20:08,237
Find me here.
250
00:20:10,597 --> 00:20:13,157
And speak to me.
251
00:20:13,806 --> 00:20:16,765
Which one of these has the
punch in it, if you know what I mean?
252
00:20:17,056 --> 00:20:20,936
- Sorry?
- We have lemonade and strawberryade.
253
00:20:21,307 --> 00:20:22,582
Yeah, but...
254
00:20:23,599 --> 00:20:24,599
Strawberryade.
255
00:20:26,057 --> 00:20:27,935
Lois, huh?
256
00:20:28,182 --> 00:20:31,334
- So who you here with?
- I'm an alum.
257
00:20:31,641 --> 00:20:35,356
That's leading me Lois Lane.
258
00:20:36,766 --> 00:20:39,520
To the place
259
00:20:39,849 --> 00:20:43,525
- I'm with Clark Kent.
- Really?
260
00:20:43,891 --> 00:20:48,522
Oh, I just always thought
Clark was so dreamy, you know.
261
00:20:48,934 --> 00:20:52,086
That farm boy next door
turned local football hero.
262
00:20:52,393 --> 00:20:53,952
Doesn't get any
bigger than that.
263
00:20:54,393 --> 00:20:57,750
Ha, ha. Funny, I always thought he
and Chloe were meant for each other.
264
00:20:58,060 --> 00:21:01,337
They had that whole "best
friend with hope of more" thing.
265
00:21:01,643 --> 00:21:06,274
- Chloe's my cousin.
- Yeah, but then there was Lana.
266
00:21:06,643 --> 00:21:11,160
I mean, how gorgeous can
you get, right? And hardworking.
267
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,116
I mean, how many cheerleaders
run a coffee shop in high school?
268
00:21:15,436 --> 00:21:17,155
Lana and Clark were perfect.
269
00:21:17,395 --> 00:21:20,593
You know that first love,
you never get over it.
270
00:21:20,895 --> 00:21:23,404
I think I hear the
veggie platter calling.
271
00:21:23,416 --> 00:21:25,651
Wait, so you're not
hitched to Clark?
272
00:21:28,479 --> 00:21:29,549
Not exactly.
273
00:21:29,812 --> 00:21:32,281
- Are you engaged?
- Nope.
274
00:21:32,771 --> 00:21:35,730
Oh. How long have you
been seeing each other?
275
00:21:37,147 --> 00:21:41,221
Well, we're not,
really. Right now.
276
00:21:42,522 --> 00:21:46,118
So you're the
moth, not the flame.
277
00:21:46,439 --> 00:21:49,034
And not be moved by you?
278
00:21:49,314 --> 00:21:51,192
Are you sure he likes you?
279
00:21:51,439 --> 00:21:55,911
Would you tell
me, how could it be.
280
00:21:56,273 --> 00:21:59,744
Any better than this?
281
00:22:00,065 --> 00:22:04,298
Correct me if I'm mistaken, but
you care about Lois, don't you?
282
00:22:04,691 --> 00:22:07,251
All I've ever done was protect
her after what happened with Lana.
283
00:22:07,524 --> 00:22:08,878
Interesting outcome.
284
00:22:09,899 --> 00:22:13,859
Lois doesn't seem
especially protected.
285
00:22:15,066 --> 00:22:18,298
You spend so much time dwelling
on the darkness of the past...
286
00:22:18,608 --> 00:22:21,760
you're missing the present
that's right in front of your eyes.
287
00:22:29,443 --> 00:22:31,674
It's one of the people I
put away in high school.
288
00:22:31,985 --> 00:22:34,659
You don't know what he's
capable of. I need to get back.
289
00:22:34,943 --> 00:22:37,299
To do what? Weren't you
about to hang up your shield?
290
00:22:37,568 --> 00:22:39,082
I have a message for Clark Kent.
291
00:22:39,360 --> 00:22:41,158
- Give me the ring.
- Wait for the moment.
292
00:22:41,402 --> 00:22:44,042
No, Kal-El, you haven't
learned the full lesson!
293
00:22:51,570 --> 00:22:53,163
Whoa, buddy.
294
00:23:14,322 --> 00:23:16,154
- Hey, watch it.
- Lois.
295
00:23:16,405 --> 00:23:17,964
- How...?
- Not again.
296
00:23:18,197 --> 00:23:19,790
Come on.
297
00:23:23,197 --> 00:23:24,517
- Wait, did...?
- Seriously...
298
00:23:24,781 --> 00:23:27,853
I know we agreed we would keep
our professional lives to ourselves...
299
00:23:28,156 --> 00:23:31,832
but what kind of secret
story got you to dress-up day?
300
00:23:32,156 --> 00:23:33,306
Here, hold this.
301
00:23:33,531 --> 00:23:37,411
And I know that you don't like them,
but you decided you wanted to wear them.
302
00:23:37,781 --> 00:23:40,376
- And lucky for you, I have a spare. There.
- What...?
303
00:23:40,657 --> 00:23:43,456
Hey, I know they are
not fashion-forward.
304
00:23:43,782 --> 00:23:45,739
But if it ain't broke,
honey, don't fix it.
305
00:23:49,199 --> 00:23:54,149
Seriously, Clark, I thought we
agreed on a Daily Planet dress code.
306
00:23:55,825 --> 00:23:58,056
Lois, wait. How
did you get here?
307
00:23:58,366 --> 00:24:02,679
- I need to know about the reunion.
- We need to table this all until later.
308
00:24:03,493 --> 00:24:05,212
We cannot have
people thinking things.
309
00:24:06,826 --> 00:24:10,217
Perry, how many times have I told
you that Troop can find his own sources?
310
00:24:10,535 --> 00:24:14,131
I told you it's not him. It's just
the guy from the eighth floor.
311
00:24:28,536 --> 00:24:31,051
Kent, what are you doing?
312
00:24:32,995 --> 00:24:34,349
This is my desk.
313
00:24:34,662 --> 00:24:38,736
Not for years, unless somebody's
been seriously demoted.
314
00:24:39,079 --> 00:24:40,115
Years?
315
00:24:48,829 --> 00:24:51,060
Clark? What are you doing?
316
00:24:51,329 --> 00:24:52,649
Lois, we need to talk.
317
00:24:57,622 --> 00:24:59,420
Ugh. Gloat all you want.
318
00:24:59,664 --> 00:25:03,499
But those names are getting flipped
the second the boys from ops do a fly-by.
319
00:25:07,331 --> 00:25:08,845
Clark.
320
00:25:09,539 --> 00:25:12,737
Clark, what is going
on with you today?
321
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:16,556
- It's like you've never been here before.
- I haven't, Lois.
322
00:25:20,041 --> 00:25:21,236
I'm from another time.
323
00:25:23,333 --> 00:25:28,124
No kidding? Clark, you're from a different
planet. That's not exactly a news flash.
324
00:25:30,583 --> 00:25:33,382
- What did you say?
- I didn't mean to come off so Lois.
325
00:25:33,666 --> 00:25:35,737
It's just that sometimes
when you get pensive...
326
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,516
I know that you have the whole "last
son of Krypton" thing on your shoulders.
327
00:25:39,833 --> 00:25:41,426
But that's why
you've got me, okay...
328
00:25:41,668 --> 00:25:45,025
to remind you that if you were going
to land your spaceship anywhere...
329
00:25:45,335 --> 00:25:48,533
you couldn't have chosen better
people to find you than the Kents.
330
00:25:48,835 --> 00:25:50,952
So you need to snap out of it.
331
00:25:56,502 --> 00:26:00,894
Wait, I know what this is
about. I forgot again, didn't I?
332
00:26:02,335 --> 00:26:03,451
Our anniversary.
333
00:26:06,170 --> 00:26:08,082
Our anniversary?
334
00:26:08,587 --> 00:26:10,897
Oh, don't play dumb,
you always hold it over me.
335
00:26:11,212 --> 00:26:15,172
The day you told me. The day
you finally trusted me, it was...
336
00:26:15,504 --> 00:26:19,180
It was romantic, and it
was the perfect day and...
337
00:26:19,504 --> 00:26:21,894
Okay, I always forget
about it until the last minute.
338
00:26:22,171 --> 00:26:23,924
But I swear it is not until...
339
00:26:25,171 --> 00:26:27,891
See? I told you.
340
00:26:28,171 --> 00:26:29,969
So, what is it?
341
00:26:32,214 --> 00:26:33,807
Wait a minute.
342
00:26:34,089 --> 00:26:37,161
Oh, no. Kryptonite again.
343
00:26:37,506 --> 00:26:40,606
Look, I... Blue? Red?
344
00:26:40,839 --> 00:26:42,114
Not green.
345
00:26:43,048 --> 00:26:45,119
Please tell me it's not
black, that was a disaster.
346
00:26:45,381 --> 00:26:46,974
Look, I just...
347
00:26:48,923 --> 00:26:50,437
I need the Legion ring.
348
00:26:50,673 --> 00:26:54,747
- Lois, do you know where it is?
- Is that a joke, Clark?
349
00:26:55,091 --> 00:26:57,925
Touch it once, shame on you.
Touch it twice, shame on me.
350
00:26:58,799 --> 00:27:01,598
And actually, I could
really use it right now...
351
00:27:01,883 --> 00:27:05,081
because we have to be on
opposite sides of town in 10 minutes.
352
00:27:05,383 --> 00:27:07,454
And unlike you, I have to drive.
353
00:27:07,716 --> 00:27:09,833
I can't keep the mayor waiting.
354
00:27:13,175 --> 00:27:16,452
- Lois, I'm not supposed to be here.
- I know, we're late.
355
00:27:16,842 --> 00:27:19,232
Late? Lois, I need to get back.
356
00:27:19,509 --> 00:27:21,421
Look, the Legion ring
is the only way to do it.
357
00:27:23,093 --> 00:27:24,812
Back?
358
00:27:25,093 --> 00:27:27,573
Okay, why don't you check your
trunk of tchotchkes at the farm?
359
00:27:27,802 --> 00:27:31,398
Isn't that where you keep your phantom
catchers and fortress disks and stuff?
360
00:27:31,718 --> 00:27:33,630
And if you need me, I'm there.
361
00:27:33,885 --> 00:27:36,002
No deadline is more
important than you, okay?
362
00:27:43,011 --> 00:27:44,730
Going up, you're going down.
363
00:27:48,220 --> 00:27:50,212
She's a handful, isn't she?
364
00:28:11,014 --> 00:28:12,448
You're right on time.
365
00:28:12,681 --> 00:28:16,675
- You knew I'd be here?
- Time travel, think it through.
366
00:28:17,056 --> 00:28:19,296
Because you were me when
you went through this and I'm...
367
00:28:19,639 --> 00:28:21,312
Well done, my man.
368
00:28:21,639 --> 00:28:24,711
How did I become
so uptight and nerdy?
369
00:28:25,015 --> 00:28:28,372
No time to chat about how, where,
why. We've been through weirder things.
370
00:28:28,681 --> 00:28:31,241
- I need you on the roof.
- When did I start taking orders?
371
00:28:31,557 --> 00:28:34,391
There's a nuclear reactor
about to blow outside of town.
372
00:28:34,683 --> 00:28:38,040
- I can't be in two places at once.
- If you knew, why didn't you stop it?
373
00:28:38,349 --> 00:28:41,706
You never would've experienced all
this, and you never would have become me.
374
00:28:42,683 --> 00:28:44,800
Well, that's too bad.
375
00:28:46,350 --> 00:28:48,581
Roof, now.
376
00:28:51,392 --> 00:28:53,031
That's what I become.
377
00:29:09,685 --> 00:29:13,520
Mayday, mayday, we've
lost control. We're going down.
378
00:29:14,352 --> 00:29:16,469
Mayday, mayday.
379
00:29:18,644 --> 00:29:22,035
Tower, this is November,
zero, one, niner, niner, whiskey.
380
00:29:22,352 --> 00:29:23,991
We've lost hydraulics.
381
00:30:05,231 --> 00:30:06,984
What are you doing?
382
00:30:14,566 --> 00:30:16,006
I don't know what's
gotten into you.
383
00:30:16,191 --> 00:30:18,501
There is a pilot with a
migraine when he wakes up...
384
00:30:18,775 --> 00:30:21,574
who wishes you could have
at least thrown on the cape.
385
00:30:23,025 --> 00:30:26,302
Lois, you protected my secret.
386
00:30:37,068 --> 00:30:38,787
What else was I gonna do?
387
00:30:39,027 --> 00:30:42,703
I would do anything for
you. Hardly a news flash.
388
00:30:46,152 --> 00:30:47,825
Thank you.
389
00:30:52,361 --> 00:30:54,956
Oh, you drive me crazy.
390
00:30:57,027 --> 00:30:58,780
I guess I should get going.
391
00:30:59,028 --> 00:31:02,624
Oh. Right, obviously.
392
00:31:02,945 --> 00:31:05,460
Busy day for a superhero.
393
00:31:07,446 --> 00:31:10,564
Don't be late, dinner
reservation's at 7.
394
00:31:17,363 --> 00:31:20,401
Not every man is destined
to find a woman like Lois.
395
00:31:20,696 --> 00:31:22,972
She's definitely one of a kind.
396
00:31:23,863 --> 00:31:26,901
- I know why you sent me here now.
- I intended to be here with you.
397
00:31:27,197 --> 00:31:29,348
But you interfered
with the ring.
398
00:31:29,948 --> 00:31:33,862
You wanted me to see how
things would be with Lois and flying.
399
00:31:34,198 --> 00:31:37,714
I wanted you to see that your darkness
lies not only in dwelling upon the past...
400
00:31:38,031 --> 00:31:40,102
but in fearing the future.
401
00:31:41,031 --> 00:31:43,421
I've always hoped my
life would be like this.
402
00:31:43,698 --> 00:31:47,374
With Lois. Well, with all of it.
403
00:31:48,865 --> 00:31:51,265
Lately, I've stopped believing
that it could actually happen.
404
00:31:51,575 --> 00:31:53,373
Well, that's up
to you, isn't it?
405
00:31:53,908 --> 00:31:55,828
You don't need to worry
about the future, Kal-El.
406
00:31:56,033 --> 00:32:00,266
You can see that it's just fine as
long as you shed the weight of the past.
407
00:32:01,867 --> 00:32:05,577
It's just, the next time
you decide to defy me...
408
00:32:05,909 --> 00:32:08,822
don't strand me
back in the dark ages.
409
00:32:18,035 --> 00:32:19,788
I have a message for Clark Kent.
410
00:32:20,035 --> 00:32:23,312
Yeah? How about, "Don't leave
your date with Punch Bowl Maddie"?
411
00:32:24,785 --> 00:32:26,777
Something tells me
it's for a good reason.
412
00:32:28,036 --> 00:32:30,392
You know, Clark is the
reason a lot of us are still here.
413
00:32:30,661 --> 00:32:31,661
Oh?
414
00:32:31,869 --> 00:32:36,341
I kind of got caught up in my web
of obsession, and he set me straight.
415
00:32:36,953 --> 00:32:40,230
It's not every place that has a
hometown hero like Clark Kent.
416
00:32:43,371 --> 00:32:45,442
That's the kind of guy he is.
417
00:32:45,704 --> 00:32:49,698
Just tell him. Tell
him thank you.
418
00:32:54,371 --> 00:32:55,805
I guess you're right.
419
00:32:56,788 --> 00:32:59,906
I've been so buried by
the mistakes of my past...
420
00:33:00,205 --> 00:33:02,800
and so worried about the
responsibilities of the future...
421
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:04,799
I lost sight of the present.
422
00:33:05,289 --> 00:33:07,929
A hero is made in the moment.
423
00:33:08,206 --> 00:33:12,120
Not from questioning the
past or fearing what's to come.
424
00:33:12,790 --> 00:33:15,100
Just remember that, Kal-El.
425
00:33:19,915 --> 00:33:24,671
And how can I
stand here with you.
426
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:29,671
And not be moved by you?
427
00:33:30,750 --> 00:33:35,188
Would you tell
me how could it be.
428
00:33:35,542 --> 00:33:38,614
Any better than this?
429
00:33:38,917 --> 00:33:44,549
How could it be
any better than this?
430
00:33:45,459 --> 00:33:46,688
Thank you all for coming.
431
00:33:46,917 --> 00:33:49,989
We'll see you all back here in
another five years. Bak, bak, Crows.
432
00:33:50,292 --> 00:33:51,885
I'm sorry.
433
00:33:52,167 --> 00:33:55,239
That's okay. Who wants
a dance anyway, right?
434
00:33:55,544 --> 00:33:57,775
You saved me the
blisters, Smallville.
435
00:33:58,085 --> 00:34:00,042
Besides, I have an
early deadline tomorrow.
436
00:34:00,294 --> 00:34:02,490
Why put off till tomorrow
what you can do today?
437
00:34:02,752 --> 00:34:06,587
- You're quite a handful, Lois Lane.
- Look who's talking.
438
00:34:16,253 --> 00:34:18,051
You were right, Dad.
439
00:34:18,296 --> 00:34:21,687
I never stopped blaming
myself for what happened to you.
440
00:34:26,379 --> 00:34:28,974
It was a way to
not have to let go.
441
00:34:32,255 --> 00:34:35,089
That's exactly what I
have to do to move on.
442
00:34:37,421 --> 00:34:41,461
To get rid of the darkness of
my past I've been carrying around.
443
00:34:43,131 --> 00:34:45,885
To be there for the
people who need me now.
444
00:34:52,340 --> 00:34:54,536
You said to hold
on to Smallville.
445
00:34:57,048 --> 00:34:59,438
I will, I won't ever forget.
446
00:35:02,715 --> 00:35:05,389
Because you'll be with
me no matter where I go.
447
00:35:08,592 --> 00:35:11,426
But I have to say the
one thing I never could.
448
00:35:27,509 --> 00:35:29,501
Goodbye, Dad.
449
00:35:43,886 --> 00:35:46,606
I promise to be the
man you knew I could be.
450
00:36:02,429 --> 00:36:04,022
You're all set.
451
00:36:04,263 --> 00:36:07,142
- All right, settle down, people.
- We're close.
452
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:13,392
- Okay, get ready, we're going.
- And three, two, action.
453
00:36:13,805 --> 00:36:15,364
Good morning, Metropolis.
454
00:36:15,597 --> 00:36:17,873
We have a very special
show for you this morning.
455
00:36:18,138 --> 00:36:19,697
We have an
exclusive interview...
456
00:36:19,930 --> 00:36:22,604
with a very special guest
who needs no introduction.
457
00:36:22,931 --> 00:36:24,650
Metropolis' infamous bad boy...
458
00:36:24,890 --> 00:36:28,122
and self-admitted practicing
vigilante, Oliver Queen.
459
00:36:28,473 --> 00:36:30,385
Or should I say the Green Arrow?
460
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:34,156
- What's on your answering machine?
- Yeah, that's...
461
00:36:34,473 --> 00:36:37,386
It's not every day a billionaire
admits to parading around in leather...
462
00:36:37,682 --> 00:36:39,992
playing cops and
robbers. Why do it?
463
00:36:40,765 --> 00:36:43,564
Were you just getting bored sitting
around, counting your money...
464
00:36:43,849 --> 00:36:45,966
decided to play dress
up and it just stuck?
465
00:36:46,225 --> 00:36:47,739
How does that work, exactly?
466
00:36:50,100 --> 00:36:51,500
Huh.
467
00:36:52,475 --> 00:36:54,751
I think our audience
would like some answers.
468
00:37:04,934 --> 00:37:06,766
I lost someone.
469
00:37:08,934 --> 00:37:10,288
She meant everything to me.
470
00:37:13,602 --> 00:37:15,275
So for that you want, what...
471
00:37:15,519 --> 00:37:18,273
a merit badge and special rights?
- No.
472
00:37:18,561 --> 00:37:20,200
No, you're right,
I'm not special.
473
00:37:20,436 --> 00:37:22,792
This isn't about who I
am, it's about what I do.
474
00:37:23,061 --> 00:37:26,054
And I don't think I'm the
first rich boy who felt that way.
475
00:37:26,353 --> 00:37:27,753
John F. Kennedy once said:
476
00:37:27,978 --> 00:37:30,129
"Ask not what your
country can do for you...
477
00:37:30,395 --> 00:37:32,432
but what you can
do for your country."
478
00:37:35,061 --> 00:37:38,975
So now you're... You're comparing
yourself to a fallen hero of this country?
479
00:37:39,313 --> 00:37:42,351
Why not? He saw
the hero in all of us.
480
00:37:43,396 --> 00:37:45,786
I'm not dwelling on
revenge for past atrocities...
481
00:37:46,063 --> 00:37:49,500
or looking ahead to what I can
personally gain from a few tax breaks.
482
00:37:49,813 --> 00:37:53,204
Drilling oil wells in the ocean, putting
up razor fences to keep out immigrants...
483
00:37:53,563 --> 00:37:55,953
who only want what
our grandparents wanted.
484
00:37:56,230 --> 00:37:58,028
In this world of
armchair bloggers...
485
00:37:58,272 --> 00:38:00,632
who created a generation
of critics instead of leaders...
486
00:38:00,898 --> 00:38:02,651
I'm actually doing something.
487
00:38:02,898 --> 00:38:08,098
Right here, right now, for
the city and for my country.
488
00:38:14,274 --> 00:38:16,311
And I'm not doing it alone.
489
00:38:18,524 --> 00:38:20,243
You're damn right I'm a hero.
490
00:38:48,610 --> 00:38:50,124
Clark?
491
00:39:05,903 --> 00:39:07,781
Not that I'm an
interior designer...
492
00:39:08,028 --> 00:39:11,305
but one of these things
doesn't exactly go with the other.
493
00:39:15,654 --> 00:39:17,885
I'm sorry we missed our dance.
494
00:39:19,988 --> 00:39:22,708
You don't need to
worry about me, Clark.
495
00:39:23,363 --> 00:39:27,960
If anybody understands
deadlines and urgent things, it's me.
496
00:39:29,447 --> 00:39:31,439
I'm not worried about you.
497
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:34,878
I missed you.
498
00:39:35,697 --> 00:39:37,097
Oh.
499
00:39:38,364 --> 00:39:43,439
Well, I don't know, neither of us
are primed for Dancing with the Stars.
500
00:39:43,823 --> 00:39:47,499
And, speaking strictly as friends, I
don't know if this is such a good idea.
501
00:39:47,824 --> 00:39:50,737
Lois, get over here.
502
00:39:53,032 --> 00:39:55,501
I'm not sure how we're
gonna make this work...
503
00:39:55,782 --> 00:39:59,014
without the jukebox nostalgia
and the balloons and...
504
00:39:59,366 --> 00:40:01,642
- Lois.
- Shut up?
505
00:40:04,492 --> 00:40:06,245
Right, shut up. Ha.
506
00:40:09,159 --> 00:40:10,434
Ow!
507
00:40:11,409 --> 00:40:13,162
- Ah.
- Sorry.
508
00:40:13,409 --> 00:40:16,959
- I'm the one who put my feet under yours.
- Um, but I...
509
00:40:17,659 --> 00:40:20,493
- It's fine.
- Let's just try this.
510
00:40:39,620 --> 00:40:41,418
I love you.
511
00:40:43,661 --> 00:40:45,414
I love you too.
512
00:40:55,871 --> 00:40:57,711
Clark, there's something
we need to talk about.
513
00:40:57,913 --> 00:41:04,149
Just for now, can we leave tomorrow
till tomorrow and just have this?
514
00:41:04,580 --> 00:41:06,219
Mm-hm.
