1
00:00:01,001 --> 00:00:02,692
Previously on "Superman & Lois"...

2
00:00:02,697 --> 00:00:04,562
Your mom wanted us
to move to Smallville.

3
00:00:04,567 --> 00:00:07,659
- This family needs Smallville.
- About a year ago,

4
00:00:07,664 --> 00:00:09,484
I took a bunch of my mom's pills.

5
00:00:09,489 --> 00:00:11,300
She made a really big drama out of it.

6
00:00:11,305 --> 00:00:12,935
Lots of therapy.

7
00:00:14,375 --> 00:00:15,871
Hey! That's my girlfriend!

8
00:00:15,876 --> 00:00:17,539
- Girlfriend?
- It is an article

9
00:00:17,544 --> 00:00:19,695
- I am working on about Morgan Edge.
- _

10
00:00:19,700 --> 00:00:22,083
He's not here to save Smallville.

11
00:00:22,088 --> 00:00:23,418
- Edge changed my story.
- _

12
00:00:23,423 --> 00:00:24,922
I can't let him do this.

13
00:00:24,927 --> 00:00:27,227
That is the best writing I have done

14
00:00:27,232 --> 00:00:29,365
- since you took over.
- _

15
00:00:29,370 --> 00:00:31,102
- I already quit.
- _

16
00:00:31,107 --> 00:00:33,307
- When can you start?
- So I can go to school?

17
00:00:33,312 --> 00:00:35,646
We have to keep an eye on your powers.

18
00:00:35,651 --> 00:00:39,609
His photonucleic effect
appears to be insignificant.

19
00:00:39,614 --> 00:00:42,844
He will never be like you, Kal-El.

20
00:00:51,150 --> 00:00:53,216
Does this have too much blue in it?

21
00:00:54,654 --> 00:00:56,150
I still like the Huntsman's Tribute.

22
00:00:57,390 --> 00:00:59,820
Dad, I'm pretty sure
that's just slang for "poop".

23
00:00:59,825 --> 00:01:01,325
- Hey.
- Jonathan.

24
00:01:01,330 --> 00:01:02,692
Don't be gross.

25
00:01:02,697 --> 00:01:05,028
Also, he's not wrong.

26
00:01:05,033 --> 00:01:06,830
Mom, can we just pick something?

27
00:01:06,835 --> 00:01:08,695
Sweetie, this is an important decision.

28
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:10,800
We're finally putting our own
stamp on this house.

29
00:01:10,805 --> 00:01:12,736
If you'd make up your mind.

30
00:01:19,714 --> 00:01:21,210
What about this color?

31
00:01:21,215 --> 00:01:22,779
You like this color?

32
00:01:22,784 --> 00:01:23,880
Yeah, it's fine.

33
00:01:23,885 --> 00:01:25,314
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

34
00:01:27,221 --> 00:01:29,616
- Ah!
- Someone is just asking

35
00:01:29,621 --> 00:01:32,017
- for the Huntsman's Tribute.
- Anything but Dad's color!

36
00:01:32,022 --> 00:01:33,322
Oh, come on!

37
00:01:33,327 --> 00:01:35,125
Oh. You really want to do this?

38
00:01:35,130 --> 00:01:37,493
No super tricks. All right?

39
00:01:37,498 --> 00:01:38,695
Come on. Come on.

40
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:40,296
You have to do better than that!

41
00:01:43,908 --> 00:01:46,536
Okay, you're done. That's it, that's it!

42
00:01:56,150 --> 00:01:58,714
Clark? Clark?

43
00:02:02,455 --> 00:02:03,983
Guess there's no reason to hide it

44
00:02:03,988 --> 00:02:05,988
now that you both know he's Superman.

45
00:02:43,262 --> 00:02:45,059
Oh!

46
00:03:09,525 --> 00:03:15,025
- Synced and corrected by Firefly -
- www.addic7ed.com -

47
00:03:16,826 --> 00:03:18,556
- Wait, so you can hear
- _

48
00:03:18,561 --> 00:03:21,125
every sound in the world at once?

49
00:03:21,130 --> 00:03:23,660
It's more like I hear all
the fluctuations taking place

50
00:03:23,665 --> 00:03:25,665
in the collective sonic frequency.

51
00:03:25,670 --> 00:03:27,633
That makes zero sense to me.

52
00:03:27,638 --> 00:03:29,669
So how do you tell between, like,

53
00:03:29,674 --> 00:03:31,961
someone in trouble and someone
shouting for a taxi?

54
00:03:31,966 --> 00:03:34,566
Well, it took lots of years
of training at the Fortress,

55
00:03:34,571 --> 00:03:36,902
but that's where I learned
to hone in on certain sounds,

56
00:03:36,906 --> 00:03:38,043
like people in distress.

57
00:03:38,048 --> 00:03:39,478
Wait, be for real, though.

58
00:03:39,483 --> 00:03:41,415
What's the most embarrassing
thing you've ever heard?

59
00:03:41,419 --> 00:03:43,283
Nope. Not appropriate.

60
00:03:43,287 --> 00:03:45,517
Be honest. Was there nudity involved?

61
00:03:45,522 --> 00:03:46,952
Maybe when you guys are older.

62
00:03:46,957 --> 00:03:48,788
- Oh, come on, come on!
- What?

63
00:03:48,793 --> 00:03:50,489
Another time, another time.

64
00:03:50,494 --> 00:03:52,294
I would've much rather had super hearing

65
00:03:52,299 --> 00:03:53,502
than crazy-ass laser eyes.

66
00:03:53,506 --> 00:03:55,006
Hey, let's just stick with calling it

67
00:03:55,010 --> 00:03:56,395
"heat vision" for now, okay?

68
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,530
- Mm-hmm.
- And don't be so sure.

69
00:03:58,535 --> 00:04:00,565
Every power comes with its own burden.

70
00:04:00,570 --> 00:04:01,967
And responsibilities.

71
00:04:01,972 --> 00:04:03,169
You mean rules.

72
00:04:03,174 --> 00:04:04,970
Which are meant to protect you.

73
00:04:04,975 --> 00:04:07,039
Yeah. "Don't use my powers,

74
00:04:07,044 --> 00:04:09,341
don't draw attention to myself".

75
00:04:09,346 --> 00:04:11,109
Oh, "Don't feed him after midnight".

76
00:04:11,114 --> 00:04:13,358
Hey, it's important that we don't draw

77
00:04:13,363 --> 00:04:15,213
unnecessary attention to our family.

78
00:04:15,218 --> 00:04:17,279
If anyone ever found out
the truth about me,

79
00:04:17,284 --> 00:04:19,284
it would change everything.

80
00:04:19,289 --> 00:04:20,582
It's not like we're worried you two

81
00:04:20,586 --> 00:04:22,084
are gonna post it on Facebook.

82
00:04:22,089 --> 00:04:24,389
I mean, yeah, we're not soccer moms.

83
00:04:24,394 --> 00:04:27,489
My point is, you need to be
mindful of your actions.

84
00:04:27,494 --> 00:04:29,494
It's the small things
that'll raise suspicion.

85
00:04:29,499 --> 00:04:31,830
Look, when I was your age,
my dad was really strict,

86
00:04:31,835 --> 00:04:33,699
and at the time, it seemed unfair.

87
00:04:33,704 --> 00:04:37,068
But now, I realize it
gave me a normal life.

88
00:04:37,073 --> 00:04:38,903
And that's what I want
for the two of you.

89
00:04:38,908 --> 00:04:41,940
Yeah, if by "normal" you mean
we're cast out like lepers,

90
00:04:41,945 --> 00:04:44,174
Smallville High has it covered.

91
00:04:44,179 --> 00:04:46,877
All I'm asking is that
you're careful, okay?

92
00:04:46,882 --> 00:04:48,278
I can't always be there.

93
00:04:50,285 --> 00:04:53,050
- Okay.
- Yeah, all right.

94
00:04:57,025 --> 00:04:59,056
Couldn't we just sat
in the waiting room?

95
00:04:59,061 --> 00:05:01,291
What if somebody we know came in?

96
00:05:01,296 --> 00:05:02,606
They might ask questions.

97
00:05:02,611 --> 00:05:04,662
You know, if this is something
you're so embarrassed about,

98
00:05:04,666 --> 00:05:06,396
then maybe we shouldn't
be doing it anymore.

99
00:05:06,401 --> 00:05:10,067
We agreed, Kyle. This is important.

100
00:05:10,072 --> 00:05:11,535
It's been a year, Lana.

101
00:05:11,540 --> 00:05:13,103
Why does it feel like

102
00:05:13,108 --> 00:05:15,095
I'm the only one that's still
worried about this?

103
00:05:15,100 --> 00:05:16,400
Will you stop with this again?

104
00:05:16,405 --> 00:05:17,836
You're not the only one
worried about this.

105
00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:20,271
You sure have a funny way of showing it.

106
00:05:20,276 --> 00:05:22,138
Hey, honey.

107
00:05:22,143 --> 00:05:24,240
Hey, mija.

108
00:05:24,245 --> 00:05:26,610
How did it go with Dr. Lawrence?

109
00:05:26,615 --> 00:05:28,512
That's... between me and her.

110
00:05:28,517 --> 00:05:31,451
I just want to make sure
you're doing okay, that's all.

111
00:05:32,621 --> 00:05:35,819
Then stop asking me about it
every 10 seconds.

112
00:05:35,824 --> 00:05:37,524
I'm seeing Dr. Lawrence

113
00:05:37,529 --> 00:05:39,329
like you asked, okay?

114
00:05:40,398 --> 00:05:42,933
Can we just go now? Dad?

115
00:05:44,613 --> 00:05:46,243
Roger that.

116
00:05:51,820 --> 00:05:53,450
Hey, you weren't in first period class

117
00:05:53,455 --> 00:05:55,318
this morning. Everything all right?

118
00:05:55,323 --> 00:05:57,854
Not according to my mom.

119
00:05:57,859 --> 00:06:01,658
It's fine, it's just some dumb
family drama stuff.

120
00:06:01,663 --> 00:06:03,392
Hey, uh...

121
00:06:03,397 --> 00:06:04,861
I've been meaning to ask you this.

122
00:06:04,866 --> 00:06:07,864
After school, could
we possibly hang out...

123
00:06:07,869 --> 00:06:09,466
Oh, I... I'm gonna be late,

124
00:06:09,471 --> 00:06:11,504
so I'll talk to you later?

125
00:06:13,641 --> 00:06:16,339
Close, but no cigar, pal.

126
00:06:16,344 --> 00:06:17,910
Nice try.

127
00:07:12,666 --> 00:07:14,129
Hey, short stack...

128
00:07:16,236 --> 00:07:17,300
Why is it every time I see you,

129
00:07:17,304 --> 00:07:18,768
you're flirting with my girlfriend?

130
00:07:18,773 --> 00:07:20,802
Look, I don't know what
you're talking...

131
00:07:24,745 --> 00:07:26,374
Hey! What are you doing?

132
00:07:26,379 --> 00:07:27,874
First, you kiss Sarah,
and now I catch you

133
00:07:27,878 --> 00:07:29,878
- slobbering all over like a...
- Hey!

134
00:07:29,883 --> 00:07:31,443
Get away from him!

135
00:07:32,218 --> 00:07:34,115
- What are you doing? Come on.
- Thank you.

136
00:07:35,422 --> 00:07:37,218
- Jordan. Come on.
- Thank you.

137
00:07:37,223 --> 00:07:39,320
- Hey!
- Don't you walk away from me.

138
00:07:39,325 --> 00:07:42,357
Jordan, Jordan, Jordan...

139
00:07:42,362 --> 00:07:44,859
Jordan, Jordan!

140
00:07:44,864 --> 00:07:47,564
Look at him, he's shaking.

141
00:07:47,569 --> 00:07:49,032
Jordan!

142
00:07:51,337 --> 00:07:52,467
Oh, this is pathetic.

143
00:07:52,472 --> 00:07:54,004
Hey, guys!

144
00:07:55,509 --> 00:07:57,439
Wow, this place has...

145
00:07:57,444 --> 00:08:01,341
- Whatever.
- Really not changed since I went here.

146
00:08:05,084 --> 00:08:07,448
I didn't need your help.

147
00:08:07,453 --> 00:08:09,617
Apparently needed Dad's.

148
00:08:09,622 --> 00:08:10,952
What are you doing here?

149
00:08:10,957 --> 00:08:12,419
Oh, just wanted to, you know,

150
00:08:12,424 --> 00:08:14,354
see how things were going
at your new school.

151
00:08:14,359 --> 00:08:16,220
So you decide to randomly drop by

152
00:08:16,225 --> 00:08:17,725
during fifth period?

153
00:08:17,730 --> 00:08:19,527
This wasn't random.

154
00:08:19,532 --> 00:08:21,729
He was spying on us.

155
00:08:21,734 --> 00:08:23,798
What?

156
00:08:31,206 --> 00:08:33,736
I was just making sure
that you were okay.

157
00:08:33,741 --> 00:08:35,437
Yeah, you could've said
something this morning,

158
00:08:35,441 --> 00:08:37,141
but instead, you lied to our faces.

159
00:08:37,146 --> 00:08:39,646
It wasn't a lie. You just didn't ask.

160
00:08:39,651 --> 00:08:41,015
How long have you been doing this?

161
00:08:41,019 --> 00:08:42,949
Since we moved here? Our whole lives?

162
00:08:42,954 --> 00:08:44,554
It's not like I'm listening
all the time.

163
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,994
That is... that is the wrong answer.

164
00:08:49,460 --> 00:08:50,858
You know, I thought you said it was okay

165
00:08:50,862 --> 00:08:52,192
- for me to go to school.
- It is.

166
00:08:52,197 --> 00:08:54,445
- Yes.
- Jordan, having a new power is a lot.

167
00:08:54,449 --> 00:08:56,695
Yeah. So that was a lie too.

168
00:09:00,437 --> 00:09:02,403
Oy.

169
00:09:07,072 --> 00:09:11,404
So how was your first day?

170
00:09:12,552 --> 00:09:14,816
I tried following up on
those reverse mortgages,

171
00:09:14,821 --> 00:09:16,551
but it turns out,
people aren't interested

172
00:09:16,556 --> 00:09:19,221
in talking to someone
not from Smallville.

173
00:09:19,226 --> 00:09:21,088
Well, trust takes time.

174
00:09:21,093 --> 00:09:24,025
People around here,
they'll warm up soon enough.

175
00:09:24,030 --> 00:09:26,694
You spoken to the boys since earlier?

176
00:09:26,699 --> 00:09:29,731
Nope. Radio silence.

177
00:09:29,736 --> 00:09:31,466
Do you remember
the first time I caught you

178
00:09:31,471 --> 00:09:33,840
listening in on me?

179
00:09:33,845 --> 00:09:35,975
How could I forget?

180
00:09:35,980 --> 00:09:38,711
Thought I was gonna lose you forever.

181
00:09:38,716 --> 00:09:40,516
You almost did.

182
00:09:42,020 --> 00:09:44,547
Pretty sure I spent about
a weeks' salary on flowers

183
00:09:44,552 --> 00:09:46,352
just to get you to talk to me again.

184
00:09:46,357 --> 00:09:48,817
It was two, and you got off easy

185
00:09:48,822 --> 00:09:51,022
because I was still
madly in love with you.

186
00:09:52,462 --> 00:09:54,426
Mm-hmm.

187
00:09:54,431 --> 00:09:55,894
Well...

188
00:09:55,899 --> 00:09:58,899
any suggestions on how to
make things right with the boys?

189
00:10:00,038 --> 00:10:03,269
Make them the same promise you made me.

190
00:10:14,651 --> 00:10:16,648
You both were right.

191
00:10:16,653 --> 00:10:18,284
I'm sorry.

192
00:10:18,289 --> 00:10:20,453
No more listening in
on your conversations.

193
00:10:20,458 --> 00:10:21,957
I give you my word.

194
00:10:23,126 --> 00:10:25,691
Mom mentioned something about flowers.

195
00:10:25,696 --> 00:10:28,427
What are the chances of you
raising my allowance?

196
00:10:29,666 --> 00:10:30,963
Nice try.

197
00:10:30,968 --> 00:10:32,564
We good?

198
00:10:34,738 --> 00:10:36,201
Sure, whatever.

199
00:10:41,941 --> 00:10:44,172
How would you like to
interview the keynote speaker

200
00:10:44,177 --> 00:10:46,377
at this year's Harvest Festival?

201
00:10:46,382 --> 00:10:49,280
Not sure puff pieces
are really my brand.

202
00:10:49,285 --> 00:10:51,549
Well, around here, they sell papers.

203
00:10:51,554 --> 00:10:53,218
I'm afraid not everything
you write for me

204
00:10:53,223 --> 00:10:55,690
is gonna change the world.

205
00:10:57,254 --> 00:10:59,153
This the paper that just
published that article

206
00:10:59,158 --> 00:11:00,658
about Edge Intercorp?

207
00:11:00,663 --> 00:11:03,225
Yes, along with a great piece
on birdwatching

208
00:11:03,230 --> 00:11:05,430
and a pretty tricky crossword puzzle.

209
00:11:05,435 --> 00:11:07,032
Eh, it wasn't that tricky.

210
00:11:07,037 --> 00:11:09,067
Now, which one of you is
calling around New Carthage

211
00:11:09,071 --> 00:11:12,136
looking for a new story?

212
00:11:12,141 --> 00:11:14,605
That would be me. Miss...

213
00:11:14,610 --> 00:11:16,741
Powell. Sharon Powell.

214
00:11:16,746 --> 00:11:18,508
Miss Powell, I'm Lois Lane.

215
00:11:18,513 --> 00:11:20,878
Does this have anything to do
with Morgan Edge?

216
00:11:20,883 --> 00:11:22,546
Yeah, you're damn right it does.

217
00:11:22,551 --> 00:11:24,915
I'm hoping you can help me
nail that bastard's ass

218
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:26,383
to the wall.

219
00:11:29,391 --> 00:11:31,288
_

220
00:11:31,293 --> 00:11:34,798
My son was a miner at the
Edge Facility in New Carthage.

221
00:11:35,831 --> 00:11:37,464
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.

222
00:11:38,234 --> 00:11:41,132
He worked there six months.

223
00:11:41,137 --> 00:11:42,532
Made good money, too.

224
00:11:42,537 --> 00:11:44,270
He even sent some of it back home.

225
00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:47,468
But that all changed the day Morgan Edge

226
00:11:47,473 --> 00:11:50,273
offered him "the opportunity
of a lifetime".

227
00:11:50,278 --> 00:11:52,341
What kind of opportunity?

228
00:11:52,346 --> 00:11:53,877
I was never too clear on that.

229
00:11:53,882 --> 00:11:56,712
Derek had to sign a bunch of paperwork.

230
00:11:56,717 --> 00:11:58,581
Keeping him quiet.

231
00:11:58,586 --> 00:12:01,384
And why do you think there
was foul play involved?

232
00:12:08,196 --> 00:12:10,726
Hey, Mom, wish I caught you.

233
00:12:10,731 --> 00:12:13,696
This opportunity isn't
what I thought it was.

234
00:12:13,701 --> 00:12:16,199
Not sure what's gonna happen, so...

235
00:12:16,204 --> 00:12:18,600
just wanted you to know
that I loved you.

236
00:12:18,605 --> 00:12:19,735
Bye.

237
00:12:19,740 --> 00:12:21,737
That was the last time I...

238
00:12:21,742 --> 00:12:24,206
ever heard his voice.

239
00:12:24,211 --> 00:12:26,041
I'm sorry.

240
00:12:31,652 --> 00:12:33,419
Thank you.

241
00:12:48,902 --> 00:12:50,998
You can't just break up with me.

242
00:12:51,003 --> 00:12:54,002
Have you not been paying attention?

243
00:12:54,007 --> 00:12:56,107
- Come on.
- Don't.

244
00:12:59,812 --> 00:13:02,713
Better learn to stay in your lane.

245
00:13:07,086 --> 00:13:10,551
One, two, three, four, five.

246
00:13:10,556 --> 00:13:11,719
Seven, eight.

247
00:13:11,724 --> 00:13:14,924
One, two, three, four, five.

248
00:13:14,929 --> 00:13:16,098
Seven, eight.

249
00:13:16,103 --> 00:13:19,426
One, two, three, four, five.

250
00:13:19,431 --> 00:13:21,662
Seven, eight.

251
00:13:21,667 --> 00:13:23,167
What is with the timing?

252
00:13:23,172 --> 00:13:24,962
- Sarah!
- What?

253
00:13:24,967 --> 00:13:27,164
14 other girls are
working their butts off,

254
00:13:27,169 --> 00:13:28,869
and you're barely paying attention.

255
00:13:28,874 --> 00:13:30,237
What's going on?

256
00:13:30,242 --> 00:13:31,572
Relax, Mom.

257
00:13:31,577 --> 00:13:33,477
Don't tell me to relax.

258
00:13:33,482 --> 00:13:34,482
This is important.

259
00:13:34,487 --> 00:13:36,554
What has gotten into you lately?

260
00:13:38,181 --> 00:13:39,811
You know what, Mom?

261
00:13:39,816 --> 00:13:41,212
I quit.

262
00:13:41,217 --> 00:13:43,882
How about that?

263
00:13:43,887 --> 00:13:46,618
Sarah, get back here.

264
00:13:46,623 --> 00:13:48,356
Sarah!

265
00:13:49,820 --> 00:13:51,684
Get 'em, boys.

266
00:13:51,689 --> 00:13:53,786
Come on, boys.

267
00:13:53,791 --> 00:13:56,021
Get your heads into it, let's go!

268
00:13:56,026 --> 00:13:58,464
Pick up that knee! Let's go!

269
00:13:58,469 --> 00:14:00,767
Uh, Kent. Is that your brother?

270
00:14:00,772 --> 00:14:02,769
Come on, let's go, people!

271
00:14:02,774 --> 00:14:04,904
- Two hands on that ball!
- Hey, Pee-Wee!

272
00:14:04,909 --> 00:14:06,773
Practice is on Saturday!

273
00:14:06,778 --> 00:14:08,708
He's a walking Disney movie in cleats.

274
00:14:08,713 --> 00:14:10,610
Hey, hey, hey. Hey, dude.

275
00:14:10,615 --> 00:14:12,344
What are you doing?

276
00:14:12,349 --> 00:14:14,514
- Trying out for the team.
- That is a...

277
00:14:14,519 --> 00:14:17,613
a terrible idea on so
many levels, I can't...

278
00:14:17,618 --> 00:14:19,119
Since when did you become
such a pessimist?

279
00:14:19,123 --> 00:14:21,754
I don't know, probably since
I saw you in pads.

280
00:14:21,759 --> 00:14:24,023
Jordan, what about your powers?

281
00:14:24,028 --> 00:14:26,691
I'll go easy. All right?

282
00:14:26,696 --> 00:14:28,827
Do you even know how to do that?

283
00:14:28,832 --> 00:14:30,329
Don't worry.

284
00:14:30,334 --> 00:14:32,597
Now, who wants to play some football?

285
00:14:32,602 --> 00:14:34,497
In the middle.
In the middle, 13, let's go!

286
00:14:34,502 --> 00:14:37,102
Jordan, that literally
goes against everything

287
00:14:37,107 --> 00:14:38,670
that we talked about with Dad.

288
00:14:38,675 --> 00:14:40,075
You play for the team all the time.

289
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:41,431
What's the difference
if I give it a try?

290
00:14:41,435 --> 00:14:43,800
Are you being serious?

291
00:14:43,805 --> 00:14:45,168
What is this even about, Jordan?

292
00:14:45,173 --> 00:14:46,578
You hate sports.

293
00:14:46,583 --> 00:14:48,214
These guys think
they can push us around.

294
00:14:48,218 --> 00:14:49,915
Well, guess what?

295
00:14:49,920 --> 00:14:51,650
I'm pushing back.

296
00:14:51,655 --> 00:14:53,027
Let's go, drive that through.

297
00:14:53,031 --> 00:14:54,931
Drive, drive, drive, drive, drive!

298
00:14:54,936 --> 00:14:57,032
Come on, let's go, people!

299
00:14:57,037 --> 00:14:58,200
All right.

300
00:14:58,205 --> 00:14:59,369
When you came by earlier,

301
00:14:59,373 --> 00:15:02,004
I thought the other coaches
was pranking me.

302
00:15:02,009 --> 00:15:04,039
But here you are.

303
00:15:04,044 --> 00:15:05,408
All right.

304
00:15:06,447 --> 00:15:08,365
Simon!

305
00:15:08,370 --> 00:15:11,068
Go on, take some reps at corner.

306
00:15:11,073 --> 00:15:12,670
- Go on.
- Yes, Coach!

307
00:15:12,675 --> 00:15:14,104
Thank you, Coach!

308
00:15:14,109 --> 00:15:15,773
It's not a military drill, Jordan.

309
00:15:15,778 --> 00:15:18,308
You're gonna need to put that helmet on.

310
00:15:18,313 --> 00:15:19,944
Let's go, people! Let's go!

311
00:15:19,949 --> 00:15:21,278
Come on, now! Let's go!

312
00:15:21,283 --> 00:15:22,947
Pick up the pace!

313
00:15:22,952 --> 00:15:26,717
Red Eighty, Red Eighty.

314
00:15:26,722 --> 00:15:28,486
Set, hut!

315
00:15:36,598 --> 00:15:38,028
This is my lane now, bro.

316
00:16:00,854 --> 00:16:03,685
Set, hut.

317
00:16:08,295 --> 00:16:09,658
Whoo!

318
00:16:14,801 --> 00:16:16,532
Ohh!

319
00:16:19,276 --> 00:16:21,273
That's what I'm talking about!

320
00:16:21,278 --> 00:16:22,841
- Thanks, Coach.
- Whoo!

321
00:16:22,846 --> 00:16:24,043
Thank you.

322
00:16:24,048 --> 00:16:26,946
Thank you! Uh!

323
00:16:26,951 --> 00:16:28,414
Ah, ah!

324
00:16:28,419 --> 00:16:30,715
Hey, where are you going, QB number two?

325
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,517
Not so fast.

326
00:16:32,522 --> 00:16:34,115
Excuse me, Coach?

327
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:35,750
You got the big cheese, Ronnie Lott,

328
00:16:35,755 --> 00:16:38,586
for a little brother and you
didn't say nothing to me?

329
00:16:38,591 --> 00:16:40,621
Someone's running today, smartass.

330
00:16:40,626 --> 00:16:43,091
You give me five
for keeping that from me.

331
00:16:43,096 --> 00:16:45,026
Yeah, go on!

332
00:16:46,499 --> 00:16:49,300
Pick up the pace,
or I'll put five on it!

333
00:16:53,996 --> 00:16:57,061
- ? Do you know your needs? ?
- _

334
00:17:05,383 --> 00:17:06,613
So when did you turn into

335
00:17:06,618 --> 00:17:08,970
Mr. All-American football player?

336
00:17:09,922 --> 00:17:11,918
I've been practicing
in the backyard with Jon.

337
00:17:11,923 --> 00:17:15,124
Oh, yeah, yeah. For sure, every day.

338
00:17:16,428 --> 00:17:18,528
You two are very unusual people.

339
00:17:20,432 --> 00:17:22,662
So I kinda heard you and Sean earlier.

340
00:17:24,803 --> 00:17:28,000
It was long overdue. He's just...

341
00:17:28,005 --> 00:17:31,037
everything I'm not looking for.

342
00:17:31,042 --> 00:17:32,305
I'm sorry.

343
00:17:32,310 --> 00:17:34,974
So you... you broke up with Sean then?

344
00:17:34,979 --> 00:17:37,074
Well, aren't you super perceptive.

345
00:17:37,079 --> 00:17:39,679
So that's why you walked off
the cheer squad earlier?

346
00:17:39,684 --> 00:17:41,348
Uh, maybe.

347
00:17:41,353 --> 00:17:43,817
We've been in school for, what?
Exactly, like, a week?

348
00:17:43,822 --> 00:17:46,085
And it feels the exact same.

349
00:17:46,090 --> 00:17:48,320
Have you guys ever just wanted

350
00:17:48,325 --> 00:17:51,324
to change your... everything?

351
00:17:51,329 --> 00:17:52,959
- Yeah.
- Not until I moved here.

352
00:17:59,423 --> 00:18:02,925
Uh, Sarah, your mom's coming
in at, like, an EF4 right now.

353
00:18:03,875 --> 00:18:06,839
- Hi, boys.
- Hi, Mrs. Cushing.

354
00:18:06,844 --> 00:18:09,876
Sarah, can I talk to you for a minute?

355
00:18:09,905 --> 00:18:12,705
Whatever you wanna say,
you can say it right here.

356
00:18:13,851 --> 00:18:17,483
Do you wanna explain to me
what happened back there?

357
00:18:17,488 --> 00:18:19,752
Isn't it obvious? I quit the team.

358
00:18:19,757 --> 00:18:21,982
Mm-hmm, you don't need
to give me attitude.

359
00:18:21,987 --> 00:18:24,587
Well, you don't have to hover
every single day.

360
00:18:24,592 --> 00:18:26,755
Look, I'm just trying to keep you safe.

361
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,560
Because you think I'm gonna kill myself?

362
00:18:28,565 --> 00:18:31,057
Okay, this is not the appropriate place

363
00:18:31,062 --> 00:18:32,362
to be having this conversation.

364
00:18:32,367 --> 00:18:35,306
How many times do I have
to tell you I'm fine?

365
00:18:35,972 --> 00:18:38,569
Can't you just trust that and back off?

366
00:18:38,574 --> 00:18:40,873
I know you're not telling me
everything that happened.

367
00:18:40,878 --> 00:18:43,174
That's hilarious,

368
00:18:43,179 --> 00:18:45,476
coming from the most full-of-crap lady

369
00:18:45,481 --> 00:18:47,212
- in all of Smallville.
- Okay, Sarah...

370
00:18:47,217 --> 00:18:49,681
No, you act like our family's so awesome

371
00:18:49,686 --> 00:18:51,948
when it's literally a dumpster fire.

372
00:18:52,422 --> 00:18:54,758
- Enough.
- Dad sleeps on the couch every night.

373
00:18:54,759 --> 00:18:56,700
Sophie bullies all of
the kids in her class,

374
00:18:56,705 --> 00:18:59,369
and you can't go to bed
without taking a pill.

375
00:18:59,374 --> 00:19:01,174
I said that's enough!

376
00:19:02,709 --> 00:19:04,976
Look, grab your stuff. Let's go.

377
00:19:05,848 --> 00:19:08,012
Now!

378
00:19:13,723 --> 00:19:16,791
- Lana?
- Not now, Clark.

379
00:19:17,804 --> 00:19:19,804
Everything okay with Lana?

380
00:19:21,026 --> 00:19:22,423
Not really.

381
00:19:22,428 --> 00:19:24,859
Yeah, she just went all
scorched earth on Sarah.

382
00:19:24,864 --> 00:19:26,293
Oh.

383
00:19:26,298 --> 00:19:29,096
Well, your mom's working
late, so it's just us.

384
00:19:29,101 --> 00:19:31,131
Anything exciting happen
in school today?

385
00:19:31,136 --> 00:19:33,300
Actually, football practice
was pretty interesting.

386
00:19:33,305 --> 00:19:34,969
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

387
00:19:34,974 --> 00:19:36,970
Jonathan got a couple good reps in.

388
00:19:36,975 --> 00:19:38,906
I really think Coach is
starting to take notice.

389
00:19:38,911 --> 00:19:40,743
Yeah, there's just a little
more to it than that, but...

390
00:19:40,747 --> 00:19:42,543
That's great! Let's, uh...

391
00:19:42,548 --> 00:19:46,280
oh, let's celebrate with
some chili cheese fries.

392
00:19:50,456 --> 00:19:53,888
I think Sharon Powell might
have given us our big break.

393
00:19:53,893 --> 00:19:57,391
Or... and here's another theory,

394
00:19:57,396 --> 00:19:59,260
that lady was half in the bag,

395
00:19:59,265 --> 00:20:01,596
selling a conspiracy theory
about her son.

396
00:20:01,601 --> 00:20:02,864
Did you smell her breath?

397
00:20:02,869 --> 00:20:05,100
I am aware she'd been drinking.

398
00:20:05,105 --> 00:20:07,435
I looked into Derek Powell
while you were with his mom.

399
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,870
It turns out, the guy has
a pretty checkered past.

400
00:20:09,875 --> 00:20:12,775
Even if that's true, that voicemail
was really compelling.

401
00:20:12,780 --> 00:20:15,077
Out of context, sure, but he never once

402
00:20:15,082 --> 00:20:16,478
mentioned Morgan Edge.

403
00:20:16,483 --> 00:20:18,113
Maybe it was just
a drug deal gone wrong.

404
00:20:18,118 --> 00:20:19,915
- That is a stretch.
- But a bazillionaire

405
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:22,017
making the guy disappear isn't?

406
00:20:22,022 --> 00:20:24,486
At least give me the chance
to prove I'm right.

407
00:20:24,491 --> 00:20:26,788
Look, this isn't the "Daily Planet".

408
00:20:26,793 --> 00:20:29,458
We don't have the resources
to run an investigation

409
00:20:29,463 --> 00:20:31,126
- for weeks on end.
- But you hired me

410
00:20:31,131 --> 00:20:32,994
to write this kind of story.

411
00:20:49,631 --> 00:20:51,192
I hate to ask,

412
00:20:52,050 --> 00:20:54,180
but you don't happen
to drive a station wagon

413
00:20:54,185 --> 00:20:56,489
that's on fire right now...

414
00:20:57,121 --> 00:20:58,741
do you?

415
00:21:04,046 --> 00:21:06,749
We got the scene cleaned up.
Button up, all right?

416
00:21:07,804 --> 00:21:10,086
I'm sorry about your car, Lois.

417
00:21:10,563 --> 00:21:12,594
Morgan Edge was behind this, Kyle.

418
00:21:12,599 --> 00:21:14,063
Now, hold on, you shouldn't go around

419
00:21:14,067 --> 00:21:15,798
making baseless accusations like that.

420
00:21:15,803 --> 00:21:17,934
It's not baseless.
We just finished talking

421
00:21:17,939 --> 00:21:19,068
to a source about him.

422
00:21:19,073 --> 00:21:21,471
We still haven't verified those claims.

423
00:21:24,078 --> 00:21:25,775
Y'all have a good night.

424
00:21:36,155 --> 00:21:37,418
- Yo, give it back!
- Hey, hey.

425
00:21:37,423 --> 00:21:39,019
Why'd you lie to Dad?

426
00:21:39,024 --> 00:21:41,689
- Why are you whispering?
- I'm... I'm not whispering.

427
00:21:41,694 --> 00:21:44,191
And I didn't lie to him.
I'm following his example.

428
00:21:44,196 --> 00:21:46,261
Okay, well, now that you've
made your stupid point,

429
00:21:46,265 --> 00:21:48,666
you're done playing football, right?

430
00:21:49,769 --> 00:21:51,366
No, the team needs me. And besides,

431
00:21:51,370 --> 00:21:52,835
Coach Gaines may even
send me a valentine.

432
00:21:52,839 --> 00:21:54,802
Jordan, football is my thing, not yours.

433
00:21:54,807 --> 00:21:57,004
You don't own football, you egomaniac.

434
00:21:57,009 --> 00:21:58,465
The only reason that you're even playing

435
00:21:58,469 --> 00:22:00,370
is 'cause you have your little
super strength or whatever.

436
00:22:00,374 --> 00:22:01,939
The only reason I'm playing

437
00:22:01,944 --> 00:22:04,944
is 'cause your little football
buddies need to back off.

438
00:22:04,949 --> 00:22:06,380
You're welcome.

439
00:22:06,385 --> 00:22:07,946
And besides, I don't
have super strength.

440
00:22:07,950 --> 00:22:09,449
I'm just a little stronger than before.

441
00:22:09,453 --> 00:22:11,985
Stop. What if someone gets hurt?

442
00:22:13,088 --> 00:22:15,088
You know, I'm getting
a little tired of everyone

443
00:22:15,093 --> 00:22:17,124
treating me like I'm some sort
of ticking time bomb.

444
00:22:18,229 --> 00:22:19,829
You know Dad's gonna find out.

445
00:22:19,834 --> 00:22:21,163
So what?

446
00:22:21,168 --> 00:22:23,900
I'm not doing anything wrong.

447
00:22:23,905 --> 00:22:27,002
Guess you got nothing
to worry about then.

448
00:22:37,548 --> 00:22:39,715
Thought you could use this.

449
00:22:44,421 --> 00:22:46,151
I made a total fool of myself

450
00:22:46,156 --> 00:22:47,756
accusing Edge like that.

451
00:22:48,759 --> 00:22:51,123
- It's an honest mistake.
- We have been here for a week,

452
00:22:51,128 --> 00:22:53,225
and somebody's already tried
to blow up my car.

453
00:22:53,230 --> 00:22:55,728
Look, folks in Smallville,

454
00:22:55,733 --> 00:22:57,396
they're good people.

455
00:22:57,401 --> 00:22:59,632
Don't let what happened
today change that.

456
00:22:59,637 --> 00:23:02,671
Besides, it's not like it's
your first Molotov cocktail.

457
00:23:03,774 --> 00:23:07,872
I just feel like everyone
here has their walls up.

458
00:23:07,877 --> 00:23:09,674
Maybe I should just hand the story off

459
00:23:09,679 --> 00:23:11,209
and mend some fences.

460
00:23:11,214 --> 00:23:12,578
Well, what's your gut telling you?

461
00:23:12,582 --> 00:23:13,978
That there's more to this.

462
00:23:13,983 --> 00:23:16,248
Then you have to dig deeper.

463
00:23:16,253 --> 00:23:19,117
Listen.

464
00:23:19,122 --> 00:23:21,690
I will support whatever
decision you make.

465
00:23:22,848 --> 00:23:25,679
I just want you to be
able to live with it.

466
00:23:25,684 --> 00:23:27,308
I love you.

467
00:23:27,313 --> 00:23:28,813
Still?

468
00:23:30,233 --> 00:23:32,764
Thanks for the flowers.

469
00:23:46,115 --> 00:23:49,615
- Hey.
- Paperwork is all signed.

470
00:23:49,620 --> 00:23:51,648
Ah, great.

471
00:23:51,653 --> 00:23:54,251
Listen, Clark. About yesterday...

472
00:23:54,256 --> 00:23:56,487
Oh, no. No need to apologize.

473
00:23:56,492 --> 00:23:59,021
It's just, Sarah quit cheer
out of nowhere

474
00:23:59,026 --> 00:24:02,526
and I suddenly feel like my
whole family is falling apart.

475
00:24:04,700 --> 00:24:06,000
- Can you walk?
- Uh, yeah...

476
00:24:06,005 --> 00:24:08,062
oh, I left my keys in the...
it's Smallville.

477
00:24:08,067 --> 00:24:09,567
"It's Smallville".

478
00:24:09,572 --> 00:24:11,402
Uh, and I doubt that, by the way.

479
00:24:11,407 --> 00:24:12,803
Well, of course you do.

480
00:24:12,808 --> 00:24:14,871
I mean, that's the image
I've worked so hard

481
00:24:14,876 --> 00:24:16,439
to put out there.

482
00:24:16,444 --> 00:24:17,875
And the truth is,

483
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,609
Kyle and I barely talk.

484
00:24:19,614 --> 00:24:21,678
When we do, we're yelling at each other.

485
00:24:21,683 --> 00:24:23,981
And Sophie... oh, God, well,

486
00:24:23,986 --> 00:24:26,617
Sophie's just become mean, and Sarah,

487
00:24:26,622 --> 00:24:29,586
I just feel like I'm losing Sarah.

488
00:24:29,591 --> 00:24:32,288
Oh, don't be so sure.

489
00:24:32,293 --> 00:24:34,725
Really hard to know what
they're thinking at this age.

490
00:24:34,730 --> 00:24:36,430
Oh, God.

491
00:24:36,435 --> 00:24:38,428
Part of me wants to know,

492
00:24:38,433 --> 00:24:40,931
and the other part of me is terrified

493
00:24:40,936 --> 00:24:43,165
at what I might find out.

494
00:24:43,170 --> 00:24:44,299
Yeah.

495
00:24:44,304 --> 00:24:45,601
I miss having Mom around to help

496
00:24:45,606 --> 00:24:46,836
with this sort of thing.

497
00:24:46,841 --> 00:24:48,303
She would be so happy

498
00:24:48,308 --> 00:24:50,539
to know you're finally home.

499
00:24:50,544 --> 00:24:53,475
And at least the boys
are finally settling in.

500
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,946
I hear Jordan's quite the football star.

501
00:24:56,951 --> 00:24:58,648
Oh, I think you mean Jonathan.

502
00:25:00,154 --> 00:25:01,154
N-no.

503
00:25:01,159 --> 00:25:02,791
It's time to get locked and loaded!

504
00:25:02,796 --> 00:25:04,225
Let's go! You ready?

505
00:25:04,230 --> 00:25:06,127
It's where the rubber meets the road.

506
00:25:06,132 --> 00:25:08,532
You ready? Sean, you're up!

507
00:25:09,235 --> 00:25:10,702
Who do you want?

508
00:25:11,485 --> 00:25:13,582
I want short-stack, Coach.

509
00:25:13,667 --> 00:25:15,164
Short-stack!

510
00:25:15,622 --> 00:25:17,580
- All right.
- Ooh!

511
00:25:20,426 --> 00:25:23,130
Time to lock horns, gentlemen.

512
00:25:23,944 --> 00:25:25,409
You ready?

513
00:25:26,245 --> 00:25:27,308
You ready?

514
00:25:34,976 --> 00:25:36,538
Ohh!

515
00:25:36,543 --> 00:25:38,507
That's what I'm talking about!

516
00:25:38,512 --> 00:25:40,743
Whoo!

517
00:25:42,983 --> 00:25:45,313
I shouldn't have kissed Sarah.

518
00:25:45,318 --> 00:25:46,711
It wasn't cool.

519
00:25:46,712 --> 00:25:48,275
I apologize.

520
00:25:54,396 --> 00:25:56,059
All right.

521
00:25:58,433 --> 00:26:00,032
Yeah. Thanks.

522
00:26:00,037 --> 00:26:02,634
Team that plays together stays together.

523
00:26:04,276 --> 00:26:06,307
All right, who's next up?

524
00:26:16,825 --> 00:26:18,136
How could you possibly think

525
00:26:18,140 --> 00:26:19,641
it was okay to join the football team?

526
00:26:19,645 --> 00:26:20,664
You didn't say it wasn't.

527
00:26:20,669 --> 00:26:22,898
No, no, don't... don't do that.
I see what you're doing.

528
00:26:22,903 --> 00:26:25,024
As long as you don't mention
it, it's not a lie, right?

529
00:26:25,028 --> 00:26:26,924
Your father apologized for that.

530
00:26:26,929 --> 00:26:29,929
Your powers are not something
to be taken lightly, Jordan.

531
00:26:29,934 --> 00:26:31,915
Yeah, well, I barely have any, remember?

532
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,284
That's what Grand Pabbie told
us at Elsa's Ice Castle.

533
00:26:34,289 --> 00:26:35,289
That's not funny.

534
00:26:35,294 --> 00:26:36,850
He was only comparing
your powers to mine.

535
00:26:36,854 --> 00:26:38,720
No, he said my powers suck.

536
00:26:38,725 --> 00:26:40,256
- Don't act like he didn't.
- I admit,

537
00:26:40,261 --> 00:26:42,558
taking you to see him
this early was a mistake.

538
00:26:42,563 --> 00:26:44,527
Mistake?

539
00:26:44,532 --> 00:26:48,337
You know what? Everything
you do is a mistake.

540
00:26:49,270 --> 00:26:52,468
You get fired, you bring us here.

541
00:26:52,473 --> 00:26:54,003
You know, I just wish you would go back

542
00:26:54,007 --> 00:26:56,138
to not being around anymore.

543
00:27:00,214 --> 00:27:01,910
- Go upstairs.
- Yeah.

544
00:27:01,915 --> 00:27:04,846
- Right now.
- Yeah.

545
00:27:11,158 --> 00:27:13,189
I-I'm with you guys.

546
00:27:13,194 --> 00:27:14,823
I don't know what he was thinking.

547
00:27:14,828 --> 00:27:17,192
You too.

548
00:27:25,554 --> 00:27:27,154
Mm. Come on, boys.

549
00:27:28,360 --> 00:27:29,860
Sarah?

550
00:27:36,583 --> 00:27:39,083
Would you please sit down and
have dinner with the rest of us?

551
00:27:39,088 --> 00:27:40,285
Nope.

552
00:27:57,662 --> 00:28:00,060
He didn't mean all that.

553
00:28:00,065 --> 00:28:02,595
- You sure?
- He's 14, he was lashing out.

554
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,148
I'm not saying that
that makes it acceptable,

555
00:28:05,153 --> 00:28:07,202
but we can't take everything
he says at face value.

556
00:28:07,207 --> 00:28:09,771
Then how am I supposed
to know what he needs?

557
00:28:09,776 --> 00:28:12,407
All I'm saying is, maybe
figure out the reason

558
00:28:12,412 --> 00:28:15,243
behind Jordan's anger and address that.

559
00:28:17,250 --> 00:28:19,110
- You going somewhere?
- Yeah.

560
00:28:19,115 --> 00:28:20,629
Turns out, Miss Powell's son

561
00:28:20,634 --> 00:28:22,397
isn't the only worker
who's gone missing.

562
00:28:22,402 --> 00:28:25,033
There's three other employees
I can't account for.

563
00:28:25,038 --> 00:28:26,935
- So you were right?
- Looks like it.

564
00:28:26,940 --> 00:28:29,538
We're meeting in New Carthage
to go over it all.

565
00:28:29,543 --> 00:28:30,706
So, um,

566
00:28:30,711 --> 00:28:32,374
I'm gonna need to borrow your truck.

567
00:28:35,515 --> 00:28:36,845
You gonna bring it back?

568
00:28:36,850 --> 00:28:38,580
50/50.

569
00:28:47,426 --> 00:28:49,293
You glad Dad found out?

570
00:28:50,293 --> 00:28:52,293
Now you can just go back
to hanging out with Sarah

571
00:28:52,298 --> 00:28:55,263
and listening to El-P remix
Morrissey, or whatever.

572
00:28:55,268 --> 00:28:57,899
Morrissey's a xenophobic has-been.

573
00:29:00,106 --> 00:29:02,337
Well, you hate football, right?

574
00:29:02,342 --> 00:29:03,972
So who cares?

575
00:29:03,977 --> 00:29:05,573
You don't have to pretend anymore.

576
00:29:05,578 --> 00:29:07,942
Yeah.

577
00:29:10,416 --> 00:29:13,148
_

578
00:29:27,028 --> 00:29:28,091
You were right.

579
00:29:28,096 --> 00:29:30,029
I-I should've said something.

580
00:29:31,364 --> 00:29:33,929
That's my bad, I know
I'm not a perfect person.

581
00:29:35,435 --> 00:29:39,000
Trust me. We all make mistakes.

582
00:29:39,005 --> 00:29:41,236
Yeah, but what if Jordan
joining the team

583
00:29:41,241 --> 00:29:42,741
wasn't a mistake?

584
00:29:44,147 --> 00:29:46,777
Not sure I see your point.

585
00:29:46,782 --> 00:29:49,180
Trust me, this... this feels
really weird to say,

586
00:29:49,185 --> 00:29:52,216
but maybe Jordan needs football.

587
00:29:52,221 --> 00:29:53,819
I mean, he's been a really messed up kid

588
00:29:53,823 --> 00:29:55,385
for a really long time.

589
00:29:55,390 --> 00:29:56,687
And, I don't know,

590
00:29:56,692 --> 00:29:58,492
what if joining the team's a good thing?

591
00:29:58,497 --> 00:30:00,158
I appreciate you sticking up
for your brother...

592
00:30:00,162 --> 00:30:01,859
No, look, it's not even like that.

593
00:30:01,864 --> 00:30:04,995
You should've seen him
out there, he's making friends.

594
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,799
He's been happy for the
first time in... forever.

595
00:30:12,775 --> 00:30:14,638
Jonathan,

596
00:30:14,643 --> 00:30:18,576
there's nothing I want more
than for you guys to be happy,

597
00:30:18,581 --> 00:30:20,310
but we have to be careful.

598
00:30:20,315 --> 00:30:22,379
And him using his
strength like this, it...

599
00:30:22,384 --> 00:30:23,814
it could raise suspicion.

600
00:30:23,819 --> 00:30:26,049
Yeah, but he doesn't have
super strength like you.

601
00:30:26,054 --> 00:30:28,118
That's what Jor-El Debarge said, right?

602
00:30:28,123 --> 00:30:29,753
Just because his strength
isn't like mine

603
00:30:29,758 --> 00:30:31,022
doesn't mean it's not elevated.

604
00:30:31,027 --> 00:30:32,957
Okay, so maybe that
puts him on the level

605
00:30:32,961 --> 00:30:35,492
of the other kids.

606
00:30:35,497 --> 00:30:37,727
Okay, maybe he's a little stronger,

607
00:30:37,732 --> 00:30:39,529
but maybe that does
even the playing field

608
00:30:39,534 --> 00:30:40,764
for a kid his size.

609
00:30:40,769 --> 00:30:43,967
- You don't know that.
- Neither do you.

610
00:30:43,972 --> 00:30:46,936
I know that having powers
is a total game changer,

611
00:30:46,941 --> 00:30:49,706
but what's the point of having
something special

612
00:30:49,711 --> 00:30:52,242
if you're not actually
allowed to be special?

613
00:30:56,251 --> 00:31:00,456
_

614
00:31:40,981 --> 00:31:42,577
Sharon?

615
00:31:50,122 --> 00:31:52,622
And we'll find out what joke
made her laugh hardest,

616
00:31:52,627 --> 00:31:55,227
next on "The Whitty Banter Show".

617
00:32:31,526 --> 00:32:33,457
Ah, that won't help you.

618
00:32:33,482 --> 00:32:34,678
No, but he will.

619
00:33:07,691 --> 00:33:08,920
Sharon?

620
00:33:08,925 --> 00:33:10,221
Sharon.

621
00:33:22,405 --> 00:33:24,035
Sharon, wake up.

622
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:25,070
Sharon?

623
00:33:25,074 --> 00:33:26,837
Sharon? Superman!

624
00:33:56,204 --> 00:33:57,534
Superman!

625
00:33:59,607 --> 00:34:00,671
He's gone. Are you okay?

626
00:34:00,675 --> 00:34:01,939
She's barely breathing.

627
00:34:01,944 --> 00:34:04,044
You need to take her
to the hospital. I'll be fine.

628
00:34:16,291 --> 00:34:18,021
Come in.

629
00:34:21,396 --> 00:34:23,461
I heard about Sean.

630
00:34:24,165 --> 00:34:26,965
Nothing travels faster
than Smallville gossip.

631
00:34:27,701 --> 00:34:30,065
Honey, I'm here if you
want to talk about it.

632
00:34:30,070 --> 00:34:31,386
I'm fine.

633
00:34:32,992 --> 00:34:34,793
I just can't tell anymore.

634
00:34:36,077 --> 00:34:37,976
Ever since last summer,

635
00:34:38,412 --> 00:34:42,247
I have no idea if I might
lose you forever.

636
00:34:47,621 --> 00:34:49,518
I'm okay, Mom.

637
00:34:49,523 --> 00:34:51,223
I promise.

638
00:34:52,226 --> 00:34:55,824
Just, we used to be so close.

639
00:34:57,897 --> 00:35:00,395
And now, there's this distance.

640
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:04,165
And when am I gonna know
that you're really okay?

641
00:35:04,170 --> 00:35:06,901
'Cause I'll tell you.

642
00:35:06,906 --> 00:35:09,504
I've been telling you the truth
this whole time.

643
00:35:09,509 --> 00:35:12,273
Not about why it happened.

644
00:35:12,278 --> 00:35:14,642
Honey, you can quit cheer,

645
00:35:14,647 --> 00:35:17,879
and you can keep me at arm's
distance if you want,

646
00:35:17,884 --> 00:35:22,089
but please, I need to
know why it happened.

647
00:35:23,656 --> 00:35:25,724
I just felt trapped.

648
00:35:27,494 --> 00:35:30,124
By this town,

649
00:35:30,129 --> 00:35:32,662
by this family.

650
00:35:34,309 --> 00:35:35,939
Everything was getting so bad,

651
00:35:35,944 --> 00:35:38,146
and I just never saw myself escaping.

652
00:35:39,271 --> 00:35:43,237
It's like the only future
that I saw for myself was...

653
00:35:43,242 --> 00:35:46,006
a life that I didn't want.

654
00:35:49,714 --> 00:35:52,546
You saw yourself turning into me.

655
00:35:52,551 --> 00:35:55,115
- That's not what I meant.
- No, it's okay.

656
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:56,983
It's true.

657
00:35:59,458 --> 00:36:02,422
I'm the most full-of-crap
lady in Smallville.

658
00:36:04,462 --> 00:36:07,391
And most days, when I'm smiling,

659
00:36:07,396 --> 00:36:09,996
that's not how I feel inside.

660
00:36:11,970 --> 00:36:14,634
I feel lost.

661
00:36:14,639 --> 00:36:16,491
Why do you pretend?

662
00:36:19,477 --> 00:36:22,414
It's how I was raised.

663
00:36:23,181 --> 00:36:25,511
"Always smile at your neighbor".

664
00:36:25,516 --> 00:36:27,747
"Never let them see

665
00:36:27,752 --> 00:36:30,383
the hurt inside".

666
00:36:30,388 --> 00:36:33,019
I don't really think that's healthy.

667
00:36:34,726 --> 00:36:37,423
I think you're right.

668
00:36:43,448 --> 00:36:46,479
Do you know what kind of life
would make you happy?

669
00:36:49,807 --> 00:36:51,673
I don't know.

670
00:36:53,043 --> 00:36:56,278
I guess I'm... figuring it out.

671
00:36:57,748 --> 00:36:59,551
Yeah, me too.

672
00:37:00,518 --> 00:37:02,787
Come here.

673
00:37:06,224 --> 00:37:08,543
I love you so much.

674
00:37:19,802 --> 00:37:24,007
So is creepy lurking one
of your superpowers now?

675
00:37:27,810 --> 00:37:28,973
Come on.

676
00:37:28,978 --> 00:37:30,978
I wanna show you something.

677
00:37:43,260 --> 00:37:45,089
When I was in ninth grade,

678
00:37:45,094 --> 00:37:46,957
I wanted to try out
for the baseball team,

679
00:37:46,962 --> 00:37:49,960
but my dad didn't let me.

680
00:37:49,965 --> 00:37:52,963
I begged him over and over, but...

681
00:37:52,968 --> 00:37:55,533
he always said no.

682
00:37:55,538 --> 00:37:58,035
So you never even tried out?

683
00:37:58,040 --> 00:37:59,537
I came close.

684
00:37:59,542 --> 00:38:02,473
You know, showed up
at the field and everything.

685
00:38:02,478 --> 00:38:04,275
But...

686
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:06,943
at the last minute, I realized

687
00:38:06,948 --> 00:38:09,580
one of the main reasons
I wanted to try out

688
00:38:09,585 --> 00:38:11,982
didn't have anything
to do with baseball.

689
00:38:11,987 --> 00:38:14,151
Was it a girl?

690
00:38:14,156 --> 00:38:15,819
It's always a girl.

691
00:38:18,227 --> 00:38:21,457
So did you regret not playing?

692
00:38:21,462 --> 00:38:23,694
Yeah, I did.

693
00:38:23,699 --> 00:38:27,704
It's been over 20 years
and I still think about it.

694
00:38:28,603 --> 00:38:32,505
Which is why I need you
to be very honest with me.

695
00:38:33,608 --> 00:38:36,707
Is playing football something
that you really want?

696
00:38:39,614 --> 00:38:41,644
To be honest, at first,

697
00:38:41,649 --> 00:38:43,280
I wasn't sure or anything,

698
00:38:43,285 --> 00:38:45,145
but these last couple of days,

699
00:38:45,150 --> 00:38:47,450
they've... they've kind of
just been incredible.

700
00:38:49,057 --> 00:38:51,922
And you're sure you can keep
your powers under control?

701
00:38:51,927 --> 00:38:53,956
Yes. I'm...

702
00:38:55,763 --> 00:38:58,797
I don't know how to explain it,
it's just a feeling.

703
00:39:00,201 --> 00:39:01,834
I guess you would know.

704
00:39:03,037 --> 00:39:04,242
Yeah.

705
00:39:04,739 --> 00:39:06,068
Yeah, I think I do.

706
00:39:07,971 --> 00:39:10,636
Wait. Does this mean I can play?

707
00:39:10,641 --> 00:39:12,338
- It does.
- Really?

708
00:39:12,343 --> 00:39:13,843
Yes, but...

709
00:39:13,848 --> 00:39:16,947
there's one last thing
we have to talk about.

710
00:39:19,169 --> 00:39:20,879
You wanna be an assistant coach?

711
00:39:21,279 --> 00:39:23,499
I just want to help out.
I don't know if you know this,

712
00:39:23,504 --> 00:39:25,709
but I was actually the team
manager back in high school.

713
00:39:25,714 --> 00:39:27,774
LinkedIn resume notwithstanding,

714
00:39:27,779 --> 00:39:29,154
you're a little late.

715
00:39:29,159 --> 00:39:30,944
We've been staffed up since the summer.

716
00:39:33,469 --> 00:39:35,974
Well, you see, the thing is, with
both my boys on the team now,

717
00:39:35,979 --> 00:39:37,469
I'd really just like to find a way

718
00:39:37,474 --> 00:39:38,709
to spend more time with them.

719
00:39:38,714 --> 00:39:40,039
Take 'em camping.

720
00:39:40,044 --> 00:39:41,584
Rent a canoe.

721
00:39:41,589 --> 00:39:42,969
Make some s'mores.

722
00:39:43,734 --> 00:39:45,419
Look, I promise, I won't get in the way.

723
00:39:45,424 --> 00:39:46,634
I'll do whatever job you need.

724
00:39:46,639 --> 00:39:48,639
Not to mention, he'll work for free.

725
00:39:50,969 --> 00:39:52,879
You should've started with that, Kent.

726
00:39:56,174 --> 00:39:59,434
Oh.

727
00:39:59,439 --> 00:40:00,974
Welcome to the team.

728
00:40:01,479 --> 00:40:03,919
Bring that cooler, meet
me on the sidelines.

729
00:40:06,949 --> 00:40:08,519
Thanks for the assist.

730
00:40:08,524 --> 00:40:09,734
You sure about this?

731
00:40:10,668 --> 00:40:11,923
No.

732
00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,450
But I've gotta try.

733
00:40:13,654 --> 00:40:14,854
All right, I gotta run.

734
00:40:15,194 --> 00:40:17,433
See you later, Coach.

735
00:40:17,508 --> 00:40:20,539
So your dad did a 180
on the whole football thing?

736
00:40:20,648 --> 00:40:22,778
Got a little help from Jon.

737
00:40:22,783 --> 00:40:26,779
Well, I can neither confirm nor deny,

738
00:40:26,783 --> 00:40:27,983
but I will say that...

739
00:40:28,409 --> 00:40:30,486
let's just assume you owe me now.

740
00:40:30,491 --> 00:40:33,254
- Jonathan, you ready?
- Yeah, oh.

741
00:40:33,259 --> 00:40:35,327
- See you guys later.
- Bye!

742
00:40:36,863 --> 00:40:38,627
Um, so,

743
00:40:38,632 --> 00:40:41,263
Friday's gonna be your first game?

744
00:40:41,268 --> 00:40:42,697
Yeah, um...

745
00:40:42,702 --> 00:40:45,300
you quit the cheer team,
are you still gonna go?

746
00:40:45,305 --> 00:40:47,603
Do you want me to?

747
00:40:47,608 --> 00:40:50,272
- I mean...
- Yeah!

748
00:40:50,277 --> 00:40:51,840
Yeah, that... it...

749
00:40:51,845 --> 00:40:55,710
it might be fun to see as a bystander.

750
00:40:58,051 --> 00:41:00,400
Your dad seems like
he's really struggling.

751
00:41:00,405 --> 00:41:02,561
Oh, yeah, Dad's the new
assistant coach.

752
00:41:02,566 --> 00:41:04,162
Do you need any help, Mr. Kent?

753
00:41:04,167 --> 00:41:05,631
Oh, hey, Sarah.

754
00:41:05,636 --> 00:41:06,699
Oh, I'm great.

755
00:41:06,704 --> 00:41:09,171
Hey, Coach gave me a jacket
and I bought a hat!

756
00:41:10,423 --> 00:41:11,819
- Uh, um...
- I...

757
00:41:11,824 --> 00:41:15,157
- I'll s...
- Have fun at practice, guys.

758
00:41:15,162 --> 00:41:16,991
See you, Sarah.

759
00:41:18,831 --> 00:41:20,564
Hey, looks like you guys
are getting along, huh?

760
00:41:20,568 --> 00:41:21,897
All right, all right, all right.

761
00:41:21,902 --> 00:41:23,435
Just pretend like you need
my help with this, all right?

762
00:41:23,439 --> 00:41:25,102
All right, yeah. I'm really, really...

763
00:41:25,107 --> 00:41:27,337
Ow! Too much, little too big?

764
00:41:27,342 --> 00:41:28,774
- Little too much.
- All right.

765
00:41:31,743 --> 00:41:34,808
Lois? I need to apologize to you.

766
00:41:34,813 --> 00:41:36,844
I mean, after what happened
to Sharon Powell last night,

767
00:41:36,848 --> 00:41:38,111
I feel like such an idiot.

768
00:41:38,116 --> 00:41:40,214
- Chrissy...
- No, it's just...

769
00:41:40,219 --> 00:41:43,717
I've never had something like
this fall on my lap before.

770
00:41:43,722 --> 00:41:45,919
Stories this important
don't usually happen

771
00:41:45,924 --> 00:41:47,221
in Smallville.

772
00:41:47,226 --> 00:41:49,557
But, see, that's where I was wrong.

773
00:41:49,562 --> 00:41:52,959
Stories like this happen
in small towns everywhere,

774
00:41:52,964 --> 00:41:54,728
and stories that need to be told,

775
00:41:54,733 --> 00:41:56,865
but they get missed because
there aren't enough reporters

776
00:41:56,869 --> 00:41:58,869
looking for them.

777
00:42:00,405 --> 00:42:03,203
Come on, let me show you
what I've been working on.

778
00:42:07,478 --> 00:42:08,542
Where'd you get this?

779
00:42:08,547 --> 00:42:11,044
From the gas station near the motel.

780
00:42:11,049 --> 00:42:14,748
This feels big, doesn't it?

781
00:42:14,753 --> 00:42:16,550
Yeah.

782
00:42:16,555 --> 00:42:19,509
Now it's up to us
to put it all together.

783
00:42:19,514 --> 00:42:22,178
Who are you, and why
is a person with powers

784
00:42:22,183 --> 00:42:25,015
working for Morgan Edge?

785
00:42:25,020 --> 00:42:27,884
No, Superman saved Powell's mother.

786
00:42:27,889 --> 00:42:31,287
Well, how's Larr gonna take care of it?

787
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:50,716
It's done.

788
00:42:50,721 --> 00:42:52,919
I'll call the team.

789
00:43:19,709 --> 00:43:21,709
Greg, move your head!
