We wanna thank everyone for coming out
and supporting the band tonight.

for spreading the word

All right,
the band will be up real soon,

00:00:19,019 --> 00:00:21,980
so sit tight
and get ready for a great show.

9
00:00:28,445 --> 00:00:31,281

like this together.

to your favorite bevvy?

14

Okay.

and I'm fresh out. You got any?

We're in a gum factory.

00:01:14,700 --> 00:01:15,784

oh, stop and stare

42
00:02:53,632 --> 00:02:58,762
you start to wonder
why you're here not there

43
00:02:58,845 --> 00:03:03,892
and you'd give anything
to get what's fair

44

Well, at least Kara didn't forget
how to use up all the hot water.

65
00:05:24,157 --> 00:05:25,700
Yeah, but I understand

66
00:05:25,784 --> 00:05:29,412
that she still hasn't managed
to recover her memory.

67
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:35,085
She still thinks she's from Minnesota.

68
00:05:37,045 --> 00:05:39,047
But I think the more she looks
into her past,

69
00:05:39,923 --> 00:05:41,550
she'll realize it's all a lie.

70
00:05:45,136 --> 00:05:48,473
Do you think if she was, uh,
taken to the fortress,

71
00:05:49,057 --> 00:05:50,809
it might speed up the process?

00:05:50,892 --> 00:05:54,104
Last time I went to Jor-El for advice,
he kept me prisoner in the fortress.

- I agree.

00:06:13,415 --> 00:06:16,084

it makes sense.

80

81
00:06:25,093 --> 00:06:26,428
That connects her to Krypton.

It has, but there's gotta be
some way to find it.

Mm. Oh.

86
00:06:35,604 --> 00:06:38,815

106
00:08:05,443 --> 00:08:07,320
I don't feel connected to it at all.

But thanks for finding what you did.

00:08:11,658 --> 00:08:14,285
I know it matches with the girl
formerly known as Kara Kent,

109
00:08:14,369 --> 00:08:17,872
but the girl in that folder isn't me.

00:08:25,380 --> 00:08:26,548
Do you trust him?

112
00:08:29,634 --> 00:08:31,219
I wish I could say yes.

113
00:08:35,974 --> 00:08:38,268
I'm starting to wonder
if he's hiding something from me.

114
00:08:39,310 --> 00:08:42,397
Doesn't it seem weird that I don't have
any medical or dental records?

Who doesn't get sick?

116
00:08:45,859 --> 00:08:47,402
Clark can be evasive.

117
00:08:48,778 --> 00:08:50,113

119
00:08:52,782 --> 00:08:54,702

- Kara...

120
00:08:55,452 --> 00:08:56,536
I promise you...

121
00:08:57,328 --> 00:09:00,331
I will do everything in my power
to help you get your memory back.

122
00:09:04,127 --> 00:09:07,380
Now, I don't suppose Clark has mentioned
anything about your missing bracelet.

123
00:09:11,676 --> 00:09:13,011
Then I guess I should tell you.

124
00:09:18,641 --> 00:09:20,977
The design on your bracelet is a symbol.

125
00:09:22,062 --> 00:09:24,939
A symbol that matches others
that have appeared around Smallville.

126
00:09:27,525 --> 00:09:30,779
These were first seen as paintings
in the kiwatche caves,

127
00:09:31,738 --> 00:09:33,573
but they've appeared much more recently,

128
00:09:34,949 --> 00:09:36,659
burned into the Kent barn.

129
00:09:39,079 --> 00:09:40,914
Whatever Clark's hiding from you,

130
00:09:41,956 --> 00:09:44,292
I think it has something to do
with these symbols.

131
00:09:48,213 --> 00:09:51,466
That bracelet could be the clue
to uncovering your true identity.

132
00:10:03,269 --> 00:10:04,829
All right, I'll see you this afternoon.

133
00:10:05,939 --> 00:10:07,440
You don't want me to go with you?

134
00:10:07,524 --> 00:10:09,526
No, it's okay.
Ben will help me unload the posts.

135
00:10:30,338 --> 00:10:33,049
So the secret of the century
is not so secret anymore.

136
00:10:34,050 --> 00:10:36,344

all know the truth

aboutyour
extraterrestrial crash landing?

138
00:10:38,346 --> 00:10:39,506
It all just kind of happened.

139
00:10:42,142 --> 00:10:46,187
Well, the truth is, with all the danger
I put you in knowing my secret,

140
00:10:46,271 --> 00:10:48,439
I actually didn't wanna
tell anybody else, but...

141
00:10:48,523 --> 00:10:49,899
But, let me guess,

142
00:10:50,275 --> 00:10:51,836
you couldn't stop trying
to save the world

143
00:10:51,860 --> 00:10:54,028
and you got caught. Let's go.

144

00:11:04,497 --> 00:11:06,374
about a Luthor
hanging out in his kitchen.

146
00:11:08,084 --> 00:11:09,127
Well...

147
00:11:10,461 --> 00:11:11,588
Two-one.

148
00:11:15,175 --> 00:11:18,595
Since my dad's been gone,
Lionel's done a lot for me and my mom.

149
00:11:19,929 --> 00:11:21,764
Oh, sure he has.

150
00:11:21,848 --> 00:11:24,225
I mean,
he's done a lot for my family too.

151
00:11:25,393 --> 00:11:28,271
Took our factory,
caused my parents' divorce...

152
00:11:28,855 --> 00:11:30,064
The guy's a real Saint.

153
00:11:34,235 --> 00:11:35,570
That's the way it used to be.

154
00:11:36,529 --> 00:11:38,406
Can't really expect you to understand,
I mean,

155
00:11:38,489 --> 00:11:42,744
you have been gone for over three years.
What have you been doing?

156
00:11:44,829 --> 00:11:47,457
We don't all land our dream career
like Chloe.

157
00:11:47,999 --> 00:11:50,543
Kind of been doing the roadie gig.
Pays the bills.

158
00:11:52,212 --> 00:11:54,005
Could at least have returned
one of my calls.

159
00:11:56,633 --> 00:11:58,676
Think it's easy saying goodbye
to your best friend?

160
00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:03,264
I couldn't risk anyone using me
to get to the truth about your secret.

161
00:12:04,724 --> 00:12:07,060
I figured it was better
just leaving it all in the past.

162
00:12:10,271 --> 00:12:12,523
- I didn't ask you to do that, Pete.
- I know.

163
00:12:13,358 --> 00:12:14,376
But it doesn't change the fact

164
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,402
that I've been
looking over my shoulder ever since.

165
00:12:18,529 --> 00:12:22,116
I mean, I had to leave my life behind
because of you, Clark.

166
00:12:24,077 --> 00:12:25,245
And to be honest...

167
00:12:26,371 --> 00:12:27,997
It was better than living
in your shadow.

168
00:12:31,459 --> 00:12:32,459
I didn't know.

169
00:12:33,878 --> 00:12:35,338
Luckily, everything's changed.

170
00:12:41,219 --> 00:12:43,096
Whoo! Ha-ha.

171
00:12:43,513 --> 00:12:45,640
I finally brought my game
up to your level, Clark.

172
00:12:46,766 --> 00:12:47,934
What happened to you?

173
00:12:48,101 --> 00:12:49,227
It doesn't matter.

174
00:12:49,310 --> 00:12:50,770
The other night, I saved this girl,

175
00:12:50,853 --> 00:12:53,856
and I finally got a taste
of what it felt like to be you.

176
00:12:54,607 --> 00:12:55,650
To be a hero.

177
00:13:00,571 --> 00:13:02,657
Whatever it is,
we need to find a way to reverse it.

178
00:13:04,742 --> 00:13:06,744
I should've known
you couldn't be happy for me.

179
00:13:10,164 --> 00:13:11,541
I want you to be careful.

180
00:13:11,624 --> 00:13:13,584
And what? Hide like you?

181
00:13:14,335 --> 00:13:16,963
This isn't you, it's the kryptonite.

182
00:13:17,255 --> 00:13:19,299
You know what it does? It warps reality.

183
00:13:19,382 --> 00:13:21,759
The only thing warped
is how many people's lives

184
00:13:21,843 --> 00:13:23,845
you're gonna ruin
by keeping your powers a secret.

185
00:13:24,554 --> 00:13:26,954
I'm not gonna make anyone
live with that burden like you did.

186
00:13:28,224 --> 00:13:29,684
Things change, Clark.

187
00:13:30,143 --> 00:13:32,937
Time to share the glory,
and if you try to stop me...

188
00:13:33,396 --> 00:13:36,149
My secret isn't gonna be the only one
in danger of being exposed.

189
00:13:54,751 --> 00:13:57,170
Well, who should I blame
for my server problems?

190
00:13:58,671 --> 00:14:00,423
I've been locked out of my files.

191
00:14:01,174 --> 00:14:02,174
Yes.

192
00:14:03,051 --> 00:14:04,051
Thank you.

193
00:14:04,802 --> 00:14:06,137
Open my e-mail yet?

194
00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,557
Sorry, Jimmy, I've been in it hell
all morning.

195
00:14:09,891 --> 00:14:12,727
Some network issue
has got me surfing the slow Lane.

196
00:14:13,061 --> 00:14:14,103
Okay, here.

197
00:14:17,607 --> 00:14:18,691
It's pretty cool, huh?

198
00:14:24,322 --> 00:14:25,448
Oh, my god.

199
00:14:26,282 --> 00:14:29,494
I know, right? This guy's elastic limbs
are gonna slingshot his story

200
00:14:29,577 --> 00:14:32,163
- straight to the front page.
- Jimmy, this guy is Pete Ross.

201
00:14:32,246 --> 00:14:33,966
He was, like,
my best friend in high school.

202
00:14:33,998 --> 00:14:36,167
Like, back before Clark.

203
00:14:38,044 --> 00:14:40,755
You, um, ditched him for Clark?

204
00:14:44,425 --> 00:14:47,136
I mean, we were all friends.
We were all best friends.

205
00:14:47,637 --> 00:14:50,473
Well, he is gonna be
an overnight superstar.

206
00:14:50,556 --> 00:14:52,934
I just got off the phone.
He's the first meteor fr...

207
00:14:55,395 --> 00:14:57,772
Biologically enhanced individual...

208
00:15:00,900 --> 00:15:02,860
Who's willing to be interviewed
about his powers.

209
00:15:03,820 --> 00:15:06,572
I just need to flesh this out
a little bit.

210
00:15:06,656 --> 00:15:08,616
- Interviewed? Are you serious?
- Yeah.

211
00:15:08,991 --> 00:15:11,494
Imagine what a guy like Pete could do
for the public perception

212
00:15:11,577 --> 00:15:13,955
of the meteor-enhanced.
He's smart, he's funny...

213
00:15:14,747 --> 00:15:17,667
The guy's story is beyond amazing,
it's great.

214
00:15:19,627 --> 00:15:23,548
Okay, so he's a walking personal ad,
but, Jimmy, as much as I appreciate

215
00:15:23,631 --> 00:15:26,384
your socially conscious
attitude adjustment,

216
00:15:26,467 --> 00:15:28,803
the press would turn Pete
into a circus freak.

217
00:15:28,886 --> 00:15:30,012
It's just an interview.

218
00:15:36,811 --> 00:15:38,271
You know what? Maybe you're right.

219
00:15:39,856 --> 00:15:43,109
Do you mind if I, um,
add a little purple prose

220
00:15:43,192 --> 00:15:44,545
just to smooth out the rough edges?

221
00:15:44,569 --> 00:15:46,289
Please sprinkle
some of your Hemingway dust.

222
00:15:46,696 --> 00:15:48,090
Look, I'm off to the stride factory.

223
00:15:48,114 --> 00:15:51,274
I'm interviewing a few of elastic man's
comrades before they start the next gig.

224
00:15:52,368 --> 00:15:53,453
Thank you.

225
00:15:56,247 --> 00:15:57,623
Thank you. Thank you so much.

226
00:16:03,337 --> 00:16:08,134
Hey, Clark. Uh, we've got a problem,
and it appears to be growing.

227
00:16:40,208 --> 00:16:44,504
Chloe. Glad to see someone's taking
advantage of my open-door policy.

228
00:16:44,587 --> 00:16:47,274
The it department told me you've been
monitoring everything that happens

229
00:16:47,298 --> 00:16:48,841
on the daily planet computers?

230
00:16:51,052 --> 00:16:53,679
Unauthorized surveillance
is totally unethical.

231
00:16:53,763 --> 00:16:55,598
Pretty big words from a cub reporter.

232
00:16:56,057 --> 00:16:57,934
Shouldn't you be using them
to write stories?

233
00:16:59,143 --> 00:17:02,688
Good idea. I think office espionage
has a nice ring to it.

234
00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:04,398
Look_.

235
00:17:04,941 --> 00:17:09,111
I'm new here, but I thought Lois
had first stab at conspiracy theories.

236
00:17:09,737 --> 00:17:12,740
You hacked into my computer
and copied my files, Lex.

237
00:17:12,823 --> 00:17:14,534
- I have rights.
- No.

238
00:17:14,909 --> 00:17:15,993
You don't have rights.

239
00:17:17,078 --> 00:17:18,746
You have responsibilities.

240
00:17:19,121 --> 00:17:22,166
Owning the daily planet
means everything within these walls,

241
00:17:22,250 --> 00:17:25,086
and if you have a problem with the way
I run this paper, Ms. Sullivan,

242
00:17:25,169 --> 00:17:26,921
you're free to find out
if the inquisitor

243
00:17:27,004 --> 00:17:28,798
offers a more considerate environment.

244
00:17:30,550 --> 00:17:31,676
You're excused.

245
00:17:43,062 --> 00:17:44,062
[Man 1] Clear.

246
00:17:44,230 --> 00:17:47,024
Test the lights. No, no, no.
Not that one. That one there.

247
00:17:47,441 --> 00:17:48,877
[Man 2] Okay, cool,
I'll just pull this one.

248
00:17:48,901 --> 00:17:50,945
[Jimmy] So,
what time's the concert tonight?

249
00:17:51,028 --> 00:17:51,904
[Roadie] Eight o'clock.

250
00:17:51,988 --> 00:17:53,948
Thanks, bro. Keep living.

251
00:17:54,031 --> 00:17:55,074
Take it easy.

252
00:17:55,658 --> 00:17:56,909
Hey, ck.

253
00:17:57,159 --> 00:17:59,287
Kara tell you
about Pete's stretch-save last night?

254
00:17:59,370 --> 00:18:01,390
Snapped his arms out like silly putty
right in front of me.

255
00:18:01,414 --> 00:18:03,494
Maybe you didn't see
what you thought you saw, Jimmy.

256
00:18:04,375 --> 00:18:06,228
What, you don't wanna think
that one of your best friends

257
00:18:06,252 --> 00:18:07,295
could be a meteor freak?

258
00:18:07,378 --> 00:18:10,840
Look, I just hate to think that you have
something against the meteor-enhanced.

259
00:18:10,923 --> 00:18:13,843
That's not it. I just don't wanna see
anything happen to Pete, that's all.

260
00:18:13,968 --> 00:18:15,720
Like what? Get the credit he deserves?

261
00:18:16,387 --> 00:18:18,306
Pete Ross is a hero,
he saved Kara's life,

262
00:18:18,389 --> 00:18:20,869
and having the courage to reveal that
to the rest of the world,

263
00:18:21,017 --> 00:18:22,101
that's a big deal.

264
00:18:23,644 --> 00:18:26,314
I'm not sure the rest of the world
is gonna see it that way.

265
00:18:26,522 --> 00:18:29,609
Why? The world needs a hero now
more than ever, Clark.

266
00:18:34,113 --> 00:18:36,824
Maybe meteor freaks can walk among us
without being afraid.

267
00:18:38,659 --> 00:18:40,499
Wouldn't you want that,
if one was your friend?

268
00:18:57,762 --> 00:18:59,388
[Groaning]

269
00:19:22,787 --> 00:19:25,267
I always knew the torch
would light the way to the big leagues.

270
00:19:25,331 --> 00:19:28,793
Pete, hey. It's so good to see you.

271
00:19:30,461 --> 00:19:31,504
Don't be too impressed.

272
00:19:31,587 --> 00:19:33,673
I just went from being
a big fish in a small pond

273
00:19:33,756 --> 00:19:35,257
to a minnow in the Atlantic.

274
00:19:36,217 --> 00:19:38,010
Well, I, for one,
have read all your stories,

275
00:19:38,094 --> 00:19:41,847
and as much as some things change,
some things always remain the same.

276
00:19:42,431 --> 00:19:44,183
I couldn't agree more.

277
00:19:44,266 --> 00:19:46,268
I'm actually in the process
of mopping up

278
00:19:46,352 --> 00:19:49,105
Lex Luthor's daily carnage as we speak.

279
00:19:50,064 --> 00:19:51,384
Now, there's a name I don't miss.

280
00:19:51,732 --> 00:19:55,277
He's playing big brother on all
of the computers at the daily planet.

281
00:19:55,361 --> 00:19:57,321
All my work
is under his cyber lock and key.

282
00:19:58,322 --> 00:20:01,122
Well, can't you just work some of your
virtual voodoo and get him back?

283
00:20:01,867 --> 00:20:05,246
Short of a direct hit
from a massive virus...

284
00:20:05,788 --> 00:20:09,500
All of these files will forever be
in the clutches of citizen Lex.

285
00:20:12,461 --> 00:20:14,630
Maybe I can give him something else
to focus on.

286
00:20:22,430 --> 00:20:23,430
Cool, huh?

287
00:20:24,140 --> 00:20:26,100
Actually, yeah.

288
00:20:28,436 --> 00:20:29,436
Come here.

289
00:20:29,687 --> 00:20:33,315
You don't want Lex or anyone else
seeing that you can do that.

290
00:20:33,607 --> 00:20:34,775
Come on, Chloe.

291
00:20:34,859 --> 00:20:36,128
Don't tell me that Clark's got you

292
00:20:36,152 --> 00:20:37,778
running scared
because of his secret too.

293
00:20:37,862 --> 00:20:40,006
Okay, I know you don't mean that
'cause this isn't about Clark.

294
00:20:40,030 --> 00:20:41,030
Isn't it?

295
00:20:41,907 --> 00:20:45,119
I mean, I remember what it was like
covering for him.

296
00:20:45,703 --> 00:20:47,747
Always having to watch
what you had to say...

297
00:20:48,247 --> 00:20:49,415
Lying.

298
00:20:50,249 --> 00:20:51,333
To you.

299
00:20:52,793 --> 00:20:55,129
Well, sometimes you don't have
another choice.

300
00:20:55,212 --> 00:20:56,547
Yes, you do.

301
00:20:56,922 --> 00:21:00,426
And for once, I'm glad not to be
following in Clark's footsteps.

302
00:21:01,385 --> 00:21:02,928
No secrets, Chloe.

303
00:21:03,095 --> 00:21:04,346
Put it on the front page.

304
00:21:05,431 --> 00:21:08,184
Okay, Pete, I get the whole
reach-for-the-stars mentality,

305
00:21:08,267 --> 00:21:11,771
and right now, you actually could reach
a few of those stars,

306
00:21:11,854 --> 00:21:14,440
but what about
all the meteor-infected people

307
00:21:14,523 --> 00:21:16,776
who still appreciate their privacy?

308
00:21:16,901 --> 00:21:19,653
They wanna keep living a lie,
that's their problem.

309
00:21:27,620 --> 00:21:29,538
Maybe it's time for everyone to realize

310
00:21:29,622 --> 00:21:31,707
that a real hero
doesn't hide in the shadows.

311
00:21:32,625 --> 00:21:33,709
Excuse me.

312
00:21:58,275 --> 00:21:59,902
Are you looking for something?

313
00:22:01,403 --> 00:22:03,072
Lana. Um...

314
00:22:03,614 --> 00:22:04,907
Yeah, I was just...

315
00:22:04,990 --> 00:22:09,203
Kara, I don't think that Clark would
appreciate you going through his things.

316
00:22:18,420 --> 00:22:19,964
What do you know about these symbols?

317
00:22:24,093 --> 00:22:26,262
As much as anyone
in Smallville, I guess.

318
00:22:26,345 --> 00:22:28,180
They're from a local Indian tribe.

319
00:22:28,264 --> 00:22:30,683
Then why were they on the bracelet
I used to wear?

320
00:22:32,309 --> 00:22:35,271
Maybe you bought it
while you were here visiting the kents,

321
00:22:35,354 --> 00:22:37,314
or maybe they sent it to you
as a present.

322
00:22:42,444 --> 00:22:43,779
You know, it's amazing...

323
00:22:44,655 --> 00:22:47,157
How you and Clark
can lie on autopilot like that.

324
00:22:47,241 --> 00:22:48,241
Kara.

325
00:22:48,826 --> 00:22:52,788
I know about the symbols
burned into the barn and the fields.

326
00:22:55,291 --> 00:22:56,333
And I know about this.

327
00:23:01,130 --> 00:23:03,674
A tattoo you somehow don't have anymore.

328
00:23:05,342 --> 00:23:06,886
Where did you get these?

329
00:23:08,304 --> 00:23:09,513
Lex.

330
00:23:19,231 --> 00:23:20,316
Kara...

331
00:23:21,150 --> 00:23:23,777
Lex has a way of being the hero
at the exact moment

332
00:23:23,861 --> 00:23:25,487
that you need to be saved.

333
00:23:27,197 --> 00:23:29,450
I know how enticing that can be.

334
00:23:31,368 --> 00:23:32,745
One day, he'll turn the tables,

335
00:23:32,828 --> 00:23:35,289
and you'll realize
that everything was a lie.

336
00:23:40,002 --> 00:23:42,963
If you really wanna prove
that Lex is the one lying...

337
00:23:44,298 --> 00:23:45,841
Then just tell me the truth.

338
00:23:46,967 --> 00:23:49,136
It's obvious you're covering something.

339
00:23:51,263 --> 00:23:52,723
Please, Lana.

340
00:24:07,488 --> 00:24:08,530
You know...

341
00:24:09,198 --> 00:24:11,325
You can keep shoveling dirt
over my past...

342
00:24:12,576 --> 00:24:13,744
But eventually...

343
00:24:15,245 --> 00:24:16,705
I'll uncover the truth.

344
00:25:14,972 --> 00:25:16,974
Please, don't let me disturb you.

345
00:25:19,143 --> 00:25:21,228
Quite the hero these days,
aren't you, Pete?

346
00:25:21,895 --> 00:25:23,230
Saving Kara...

347
00:25:24,106 --> 00:25:25,983
Now I gather
you're trying to impress Chloe...

348
00:25:26,066 --> 00:25:29,236
By erasing any record
of her extracurricular projects.

349
00:25:30,070 --> 00:25:32,031
I guess things never change.

350
00:25:33,365 --> 00:25:34,825
You're living proof of that.

351
00:25:35,617 --> 00:25:37,953
You know, we may have more in common
than you think.

352
00:25:38,662 --> 00:25:41,832
We both had a friend who let us down,
and something tells me

353
00:25:41,915 --> 00:25:46,211
you know what it's like to love a woman
who's still infatuated with Clark Kent.

354
00:25:47,921 --> 00:25:48,921
Maybe I was wrong.

355
00:25:50,507 --> 00:25:51,800
Things do change.

356
00:25:53,802 --> 00:25:55,637
Even more messed up than before.

357
00:25:58,182 --> 00:26:01,018
I thought an olive branch
was a pretty civilized response

358
00:26:01,101 --> 00:26:02,186
to breaking and entering,

359
00:26:02,269 --> 00:26:06,106
but however you wanna see it,
one truth remains.

360
00:26:06,940 --> 00:26:09,068
I control Chloe's fate,

361
00:26:09,151 --> 00:26:11,153
and if you really wanna be her hero,

362
00:26:11,695 --> 00:26:14,364
you're gonna put that amazing ability
to work for me.

363
00:26:15,949 --> 00:26:18,869
Now, there's a certain bracelet

364
00:26:18,952 --> 00:26:21,163
that I believe is locked
in my father's vault.

365
00:26:22,831 --> 00:26:23,831
I want it.

366
00:26:24,249 --> 00:26:25,459
I'm sure you do.

367
00:26:27,336 --> 00:26:30,714
But Chloe wouldn't want you
using herjob to make me do anything.

368
00:26:31,632 --> 00:26:34,009
I'm not talking about herjob, Pete.

369
00:26:35,594 --> 00:26:38,222
I'm talking about the secret
she's been keeping.

370
00:26:41,725 --> 00:26:44,436
Do you really wanna be the reason
the world finds out

371
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:46,396
that Chloe's a meteor freak?

372
00:26:55,489 --> 00:26:57,074
The stride gum factory?

373
00:26:57,157 --> 00:26:58,951
It was used
as an underground venue for bands

374
00:26:59,034 --> 00:27:00,553
until it was shut down a few months ago.

375
00:27:00,577 --> 00:27:01,620
It's already been closed?

376
00:27:01,912 --> 00:27:04,581
Maybe next time they won't let
the flavor last quite so long.

377
00:27:04,665 --> 00:27:06,500
I found the source of Pete's powers.

378
00:27:06,917 --> 00:27:09,878
Kryptonite-enhanced gum.
I found a whole stockpile of it.

379
00:27:09,962 --> 00:27:13,006
Chewing gum?
Is nothing sacred anymore?

380
00:27:13,090 --> 00:27:14,690
I destroyed it,
but we have to find Pete.

381
00:27:14,758 --> 00:27:15,843
His attitude is changing.

382
00:27:15,926 --> 00:27:18,595
Ah, so you got a whiff of
Pete "the boss" Ross too, huh?

383
00:27:18,679 --> 00:27:22,099
If he ingests any more kryptonite,
we both know what happens to people.

384
00:27:22,182 --> 00:27:25,811
Present company on standby.
And since the "go, go, gadget arms"

385
00:27:25,894 --> 00:27:28,175
has been going public
with his abilities, he's gotta be...

386
00:27:29,106 --> 00:27:30,106
[Beeping]

387
00:27:30,774 --> 00:27:31,876
- [Man] I don't know.
- [Woman] Yeah.

388
00:27:31,900 --> 00:27:34,611
- [Man] Check the connection?
- [Woman] Yeah, I did.

389
00:27:34,695 --> 00:27:35,695
What's going on?

390
00:27:40,367 --> 00:27:41,827
It looks like some kind of virus.

391
00:27:42,995 --> 00:27:44,705
My computer's totally fried,

392
00:27:44,788 --> 00:27:48,208
and judging from the collective sighs,
so is everybody else's.

393
00:27:52,129 --> 00:27:54,006
Clark, I think
our new hero went vigilante

394
00:27:54,089 --> 00:27:56,466
and wiped out the planet's server
to protect me.

395
00:27:57,259 --> 00:27:59,970
Hey, guys, major scoop.

396
00:28:01,430 --> 00:28:03,190
Pete's headed over
to Lionel Luthor's office.

397
00:28:03,599 --> 00:28:05,017
He's stealing something for Lex.

398
00:29:54,793 --> 00:29:56,712
Guess your world's only big enough
for one hero.

399
00:29:57,671 --> 00:29:59,339
This isn't the way to be a hero, Pete.

400
00:30:00,048 --> 00:30:02,217
The kryptonite is affecting
your judgment.

401
00:30:04,052 --> 00:30:06,305
Just tell me what Lex has on you,
I'll take care of it.

402
00:30:06,638 --> 00:30:07,639
By doing what?

403
00:30:08,598 --> 00:30:10,142
I've only been back in town one day,

404
00:30:10,225 --> 00:30:12,436
and already lexis squeezing me
to get to your secret.

405
00:30:12,978 --> 00:30:13,978
My secret?

406
00:30:17,399 --> 00:30:18,400
Look familiar?

407
00:30:20,319 --> 00:30:21,903
It always comes back to you.

408
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,400
I guess you didn't know
your new best friend had that.

409
00:30:31,788 --> 00:30:34,291
- There must be a reason.
- His last name, Clark.

410
00:30:34,750 --> 00:30:37,586
Lionel, Lex, they're the same person,

411
00:30:38,128 --> 00:30:41,298
and they're not gonna stop using people
until they get to the truth about you.

412
00:30:46,386 --> 00:30:48,388
- Sorry, Clark...
- Aah.

413
00:30:48,472 --> 00:30:49,632
But I don't have a choice.

414
00:30:51,099 --> 00:30:52,142
[Groaning]

415
00:30:52,225 --> 00:30:53,852
If I turn that bracelet over to Lex,

416
00:30:53,935 --> 00:30:55,735
he's gonna get one step closer
to your secret.

417
00:30:57,814 --> 00:31:00,650
The only way to stop all this
is to take Lex out of the equation.

418
00:31:03,987 --> 00:31:07,407
It's my turn to save you
and everybody else from Lex

419
00:31:07,491 --> 00:31:08,658
once and for all.

420
00:31:24,758 --> 00:31:26,259
[Music playing]

421
00:31:26,343 --> 00:31:27,969
[Crowd cheering]

422
00:31:33,683 --> 00:31:37,854
Angel of mercy
how did you find me?

423
00:31:37,938 --> 00:31:41,858
Where did you read my story?

424
00:31:41,983 --> 00:31:46,071
Pulled from the papers
desperate and hardened

425
00:31:46,154 --> 00:31:49,741
seeking a momentary fix

426
00:31:49,825 --> 00:31:53,745
all I wanted to say
all I wanted to do

427
00:31:53,829 --> 00:31:57,666
has fallen apart now

428
00:31:57,749 --> 00:32:02,087
all I wanted to feel
I wanted to love

429
00:32:02,170 --> 00:32:04,840
it's all my fault now...

430
00:32:04,923 --> 00:32:06,675
Pete, you're late.

431
00:32:09,261 --> 00:32:10,303
You're right.

432
00:32:10,887 --> 00:32:12,764
I should have done this three years ago.

433
00:32:17,352 --> 00:32:18,979
How many more people
are you gonna hurt?

434
00:32:19,688 --> 00:32:21,022
When is it gonna end?

435
00:32:22,190 --> 00:32:23,608
[Grunts]

436
00:32:31,324 --> 00:32:33,493
- Aah!
- Where's the bracelet, Pete?

437
00:32:38,331 --> 00:32:39,958
[Yelling]

438
00:32:40,167 --> 00:32:42,919
I never found it! I don't have it.

439
00:32:43,003 --> 00:32:44,379
- Where is it?
- I don't have it.

440
00:32:44,671 --> 00:32:45,922
I don't have it.

441
00:32:50,469 --> 00:32:52,554
You're starting
to try my Patience, Pete.

442
00:32:52,929 --> 00:32:55,807
Then bring it on,
because the truth isn't gonna change.

443
00:32:57,851 --> 00:32:59,060
Then maybe we can help.

444
00:32:59,478 --> 00:33:00,478
[Yells]

445
00:33:02,397 --> 00:33:04,399
It's better than somewhere

446
00:33:04,483 --> 00:33:08,195
that's where I've been
and nothing's changed

447
00:33:08,278 --> 00:33:10,155
all I wanted to say...

448
00:33:20,207 --> 00:33:21,249
What happened, Clark?

449
00:33:21,833 --> 00:33:23,585
You and I need to talk.

450
00:33:24,127 --> 00:33:26,713
But first I need to stop Pete
from making a huge mistake.

451
00:33:37,182 --> 00:33:41,728
Seemed to be, but what now?

452
00:33:41,811 --> 00:33:45,565
Angel of mercy
how did you find me?

453
00:33:45,649 --> 00:33:46,649
How did you...

454
00:33:50,904 --> 00:33:53,240
I don't like this
any more than you do, Pete...

455
00:33:54,407 --> 00:33:55,825
But I need that bracelet.

456
00:33:56,785 --> 00:33:59,246
Now, this is the last time
I'm gonna ask you.

457
00:34:00,705 --> 00:34:01,706
Where is it?

458
00:34:01,998 --> 00:34:03,041
I don't have it.

459
00:34:03,291 --> 00:34:05,835
I already told you,
I don't have it and I never did.

460
00:34:09,172 --> 00:34:10,172
Okay.

461
00:34:14,135 --> 00:34:15,845
[Grunting]

462
00:34:35,991 --> 00:34:36,992
You okay?

463
00:34:37,742 --> 00:34:39,202
[Panting]

464
00:34:39,661 --> 00:34:40,662
Yeah.

465
00:34:41,705 --> 00:34:45,208
[Singer] Thank you so much, Metropolis.
You're a wonderful audience.

466
00:34:45,292 --> 00:34:46,452
We'll see you guys next time.

467
00:34:47,836 --> 00:34:50,171
Guess the best part
about knowing your secret

468
00:34:50,255 --> 00:34:53,049
is being able to say...

469
00:34:54,843 --> 00:34:55,969
Thank you.

470
00:35:09,232 --> 00:35:10,233
[Pete sighs]

471
00:35:10,650 --> 00:35:11,818
I gotta admit,

472
00:35:12,777 --> 00:35:15,071
one-on-one was a lot more fun
when I had powers.

473
00:35:15,238 --> 00:35:17,073
Now I'm really at a disadvantage.

474
00:35:17,282 --> 00:35:21,411
Come on, Pete, even without powers
you were always at a disadvantage.

475
00:35:22,287 --> 00:35:24,039
Let's just hope for a quick recovery.

476
00:35:25,415 --> 00:35:26,750
Look, Clark, um...

477
00:35:27,250 --> 00:35:29,085
I didn't really mean
what I said yesterday.

478
00:35:31,087 --> 00:35:33,506
You're not the reason
my life's ended up the way it has.

479
00:35:35,008 --> 00:35:37,636
I know that kryptonite
can get you a little amped,

480
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:38,887
but you weren't wrong.

481
00:35:41,139 --> 00:35:42,908
Almost every day
I wonder what it would be like

482
00:35:42,932 --> 00:35:44,934
- not to have to live a lie, but...
- You can't.

483
00:35:45,310 --> 00:35:46,394
I know.

484
00:35:47,562 --> 00:35:49,814
I never really understood
how hard it was being you.

485
00:35:53,151 --> 00:35:55,153
I was always a little jealous
of your life...

486
00:35:56,780 --> 00:35:58,531
And it was easier to blame you.

487
00:35:59,282 --> 00:36:00,325
I'm sorry.

488
00:36:06,623 --> 00:36:08,208
It's time for me to make a change.

489
00:36:09,709 --> 00:36:11,878
I know there's a hero
inside me somewhere, I just...

490
00:36:14,381 --> 00:36:16,216
I gotta find another way
to save the world.

491
00:36:25,558 --> 00:36:26,643
Hey, Chloe.

492
00:36:27,268 --> 00:36:30,772
Hey. Is this the "Barry bonds" Pete
or the "Hank Aaron" Pete?

493
00:36:31,314 --> 00:36:34,401
This is the 100 percent
"Pete Ross" Pete.

494
00:36:35,777 --> 00:36:37,987
I just came by to apologize
before I left.

495
00:36:38,780 --> 00:36:40,365
Clark told me what you did.

496
00:36:40,949 --> 00:36:42,075
Thank you.

497
00:36:42,492 --> 00:36:44,327
You risked your life to protect me.

498
00:36:44,411 --> 00:36:47,330
Now, that's not only Webster's
definition of hero, it's mine too.

499
00:36:47,414 --> 00:36:48,832
There's no apology needed.

500
00:36:51,626 --> 00:36:54,546
Chloe, um, Lex told me you had a power.

501
00:36:57,215 --> 00:36:59,008
You don't have to tell me what it is.

502
00:37:02,887 --> 00:37:03,887
This...

503
00:37:04,514 --> 00:37:06,057
Is for ruining your computer.

504
00:37:06,808 --> 00:37:07,808
Pete.

505
00:37:08,893 --> 00:37:11,730
Just promise me you won't
let another light-year pass by

506
00:37:11,813 --> 00:37:13,440
before I see you again.

507
00:37:13,523 --> 00:37:15,608
- You can count on it.
- Come here.

508
00:37:22,115 --> 00:37:23,199
Hey.

509
00:37:24,951 --> 00:37:25,951
Jimmy.

510
00:37:27,662 --> 00:37:31,207
No hard feelings, man.
I decided to live my life in anonymity.

511
00:37:31,750 --> 00:37:32,834
I understand.

512
00:37:33,460 --> 00:37:35,170
Some secrets are better kept.

513
00:37:37,338 --> 00:37:38,757
- See you soon.
- Yeah.

514
00:37:39,424 --> 00:37:40,424
Pete.

515
00:37:41,509 --> 00:37:42,677
Relax.

516
00:37:43,845 --> 00:37:45,221
It's kryptonite-free.

517
00:37:46,973 --> 00:37:48,016
Bye.

518
00:37:52,687 --> 00:37:55,148
So you guys gonna be hanging out
any time soon?

519
00:37:56,524 --> 00:37:58,777
I just mean, it looks like gumby
found his pokey.

520
00:37:59,152 --> 00:38:00,921
- Unless you two...
- You were right the first time.

521
00:38:00,945 --> 00:38:02,363
Pete and I are just friends.

522
00:38:02,447 --> 00:38:03,447
Cool.

523
00:38:05,366 --> 00:38:06,493
Yeah, that's cool.

524
00:38:09,287 --> 00:38:12,373
What about you?
How was date night with Kara?

525
00:38:12,457 --> 00:38:13,541
Ah, you know.

526
00:38:15,335 --> 00:38:16,503
You know, Kara's great...

527
00:38:16,795 --> 00:38:22,383
But I think the spark
kind of fizzled for both of us.

528
00:38:25,428 --> 00:38:26,428
Sorry.

529
00:38:28,473 --> 00:38:29,599
No, you're not.

530
00:38:31,100 --> 00:38:35,313
No, no. Uh... what I meant was that
I hope that you're not.

531
00:38:37,690 --> 00:38:39,859
I should've just said
that I'm not, right?

532
00:38:48,201 --> 00:38:51,329
Is there any interest in seeing

533
00:38:51,412 --> 00:38:53,972
if we can breathe some fire
into this Ember over a cup of coffee?

534
00:38:57,877 --> 00:38:58,962
I'll bring the butane.

535
00:39:01,172 --> 00:39:07,428
I'm holding on your rope
got me ten feet off the ground

536
00:39:09,055 --> 00:39:15,395
and I'm hearing what you say
but I just can't make a sound

537
00:39:17,605 --> 00:39:23,403
you tell me that you need me
then you go and cut me down

538
00:39:23,486 --> 00:39:25,780
but wait

539
00:39:25,864 --> 00:39:31,286
you tell me that you're sorry
didn't think I'd turn around

540
00:39:31,369 --> 00:39:33,496
and say

541
00:39:33,580 --> 00:39:37,709
that it's too late to apologize

542
00:39:37,792 --> 00:39:41,546
it's too late

543
00:39:41,629 --> 00:39:45,884
I said it's too late to apologize

544
00:39:45,967 --> 00:39:49,512
it's too late

545
00:39:49,721 --> 00:39:55,935
too late, oh

546
00:39:58,062 --> 00:40:04,736
I'd take another chance, take a fall
take a shot for you

547
00:40:06,321 --> 00:40:12,327
and I need you like a heart needs a beat
but it's nothing new

548
00:40:12,410 --> 00:40:14,495
yeah, yeah

549
00:40:14,579 --> 00:40:20,168
I loved you with a fire red
now it's turning blue

550
00:40:20,251 --> 00:40:21,753
and you say...

551
00:40:21,836 --> 00:40:22,836
Mr. Luthor...

552
00:40:23,463 --> 00:40:25,465
I checked with
the Metropolis observatory

553
00:40:25,798 --> 00:40:27,800
about the constellation
in your family crest.

554
00:40:28,301 --> 00:40:30,345
The last time
these stars were configured

555
00:40:30,428 --> 00:40:31,930
in this exact arrangement

556
00:40:32,013 --> 00:40:34,182
was October 7th, 1989.

557
00:40:36,225 --> 00:40:37,936
The day of the first meteor shower.

558
00:40:39,479 --> 00:40:41,022
And there's something else.

559

[Knocking on door]

560
00:40:55,954 --> 00:40:58,122
Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you.

561
00:41:01,125 --> 00:41:02,835
I thought I made myself clear.

562
00:41:04,504 --> 00:41:06,422
You're always welcome here.

563
00:41:07,674 --> 00:41:09,050
I was hoping you'd say that.

564
00:41:11,302 --> 00:41:13,346
I don't trust Clark and Lana anymore...

565
00:41:14,806 --> 00:41:17,100
And the idea of living with them
on the farm...

566
00:41:20,103 --> 00:41:21,104
Hope you don't mind, Lex,

567
00:41:21,187 --> 00:41:23,022
but I was wondering
if I could stay here.

568
00:41:24,148 --> 00:41:25,149
With you.

569
00:41:29,404 --> 00:41:33,616
I said it's too late to apologize

570
00:41:33,700 --> 00:41:37,787
-yeah -too late

571
00:41:37,870 --> 00:41:39,914
I'm holding on your rope

572
00:41:39,998 --> 00:41:46,671
got me ten feet off the ground
