04x15 - Threesome: Part 2

[groaning]

I knew he'd run.

Figuratively speaking,

of course.

He won't

be coming back either.

This thing blankets the city

with ultra high-frequency sound.

[laughing]

He won't be able to.

Looks like Capitol City is our

own personal candy jar, eh, pal?

Yeahpal.

No, it isn't.

Not yet.

Superboy has to

die first.

That's why

I brought you together.

And, it has

to be slow..

and painful.

Are you sure,

you want her?

- Hm, with all of my heart.

- You don't have a heart.

I got everything else.

Ugh!

[pleasant music]

[heavy metal music

on radio]

[music continues]

[buzzing]

[knocking on door]

[lowering volume]

(Lana)

Hello?

Clark?

What are you doing here?

I got to thinking about

what you were saying and..

it made a lot of sense.

Sit.

I had figured

you'd come around.

Did you hear

what Superboy did?

Yeah, I heard.

He did the right thing.

Leaving Capitol City?

I'm not so sure.

After all he has done

I think it's about time he let

the police do their job.

Yeah.

I assume that unless

your parents have acquired

a taste for loud heavy metal

music, they're not at home?

They were gone

when I got here.

They were going to

the State capital for few days.

Because of what's been

happening in town, right?

- What's been happening?

- You don't know?

Huh, well,

allow me to show you.

It has been unbelievable.

It is fantastic.

I got tourists coming in

from the Midwest.

The locals are lining up.

The place is going crazy.

It's gonna be another Vegas.

- You watch me.

- No, it's not.

Not if I can help that.

Excuse me.

Do I know you?

Lana Lang.

I used to live here.

Bill Trenton. I think you have

me confused with somebody else.

No, no. You're

responsible for this.

If by this you mean revitalizing

Smallville's economy

then, yes,

I'm responsible.

No, I mean,

turning it into a cesspool.

Look.

Ha-ha-ha, Lana.

I know the concerns

of the locals

and I'm gonna respect them.

Everything is totally up and up.

Everything is totally

above void here, okay?

There is even

a $100 a day limit.

Nobody's gonna

get b*rned here.

What about the bars,

topless clubs

and X-rated theaters

you wanna build?

We've been

to the city planners--

Alright. Hold it.

Wait a second, okay?

This place would be

a ghost town.

Nothing but foreclosed farms

and families on welfare.

The town needed money fast,

this is how you get it.

There are other ways.

Hey, Miss Lana?

What's it to you?

You don't even live here

anymore, do you?

[sh*t g*n f*ring]

[people screaming]

[sh*t g*n f*ring]

They stole my money.

Every cent of it.

[sh*t g*n f*ring]

Listen, pal.

We've had this discussion

and you take care

of this thing quick.

Don't make me do something

you're gonna regret, clear?

Roy, put the g*n down.

You're all crooks.

They ain't crooks.

You just don't know beans

about poker, that's all.

Now put the g*n down

before somebody gets hurt.

I'll tell you who's gonna

get hurt. My family!

[dramatic music]

(Roy)

I gotta mortgage due.

Why don't you tell me where

my family is gonna go, huh?

[Superboy theme music]

You stay away from me.

You don't wanna do that.

- I've lost everything.

- It isn't worth it.

It's only a few hundred dollars.

Few hundred?

Try a few thousands.

They have limits.

Every place has got limit.

When you hit it in one place,

the next place will be happy

to take it to the limit again.

Around $6000 in two weeks.

Roy, they were wrong.

But this isn't the way--

This is the only way.

[sh*t g*n f*ring]

[sighs]

[people applauding]

- Bye.

- Wait!

How long are you

gonna be staying here?

I don't know.

You're not going back

to Capitol City, are you?

- I have to.

- No. you don't.

Well, you know me

better than that.

What if I had told you

I'd be staying here.

Are you?

Would it change anything?

I gotta go.

He's gonna ruin everything.

I gotta do something.

Listen, after what

just happened

maybe, you should think

about closing up for a while.

Maybe you should think

about finding another job.

If you can't handle

things around here

I'm gonna have to

find someone who can.

[people chattering]

[dramatic music]

What a dump!

[dramatic music]

[Rock music

playing on radio]

[knocking on door]

[knocking on door]

Clark?

Clark!

[music continues]

I don't remember you listening

to that kind of music.

I don't remember you ever

coming into someone's house

without knocking first,

but here you are.

Luthor and Odessa are here.

We have to warn Superboy,

make him leave Smallville.

He ran from them once.

He won't do it again.

How do you know?

How do you know

what he's thinking?

It's logical.

Where's he gonna go?

Where ever he goes,

they're gonna follow him.

This has got to end here!

[utensils clanking]

Clark. All we have

to do is give them time.

What?

Luthor, Metallo, Odessa.

They're egomaniacs, psychotics.

They'll turn on

each other sooner or later.

What if it's later?

Clark, you should

know them by now.

[sighs]

(Lana)

What? What is it?

The ripples in the water.

They're like sound waves.

So?

(Clark)

The ripple from

is interfering with

the ripple from the first.

It's like sound.

One set of sound waves

could cancel out

the other.

You know you are

absolutely right.

You've gotta go

and warn Superboy.

Okay. Wh-wh-where

will I find them?

I don't know.

He's gotta be around somewhere.

Okay. What are you

gonna be doing?

Oh, never mind.

I'm gonna take a stand.

[dramatic music]

Can't do it, Lana.

Why can't you just go

down there and arrest him?

It's better if you

just stay out of it.

For who?

Not for Superboy.

For Smallville. Don't get

yourself in the middle of this.

I'm not in the middle.

You just need to pick a side.

[car horn honking]

Yoo-hoo!

Yippee!

Howdy, partner?

[buzzing]

[high-pitched buzzing]

[dramatic music]

[music continues]

You go first.

- I thought that all of us--

- You soften him up.

We'll be right behind you.

Better be.

You should have kept running.

[laughing]

[laughing]

I knew it.

What do I need you for, huh?

[laughing]

Oh! Oh-oh.

Oh, no!

[screaming]

[buzzing]

[high-pitched buzzing]

[buzzing recedes]

What happened?

I bet he's got

another tone generator.

So?

You play back a tone slightly

out of phase with itself

and the two pitches

cancel each other out.

So that means..

[laser beam sputtering]

[blasts]

John?

John, let me in!

John?

[glass shatters]

I knew you could do it.

Don't go back.

Lana, I can't

hide anymore.

Neither of us can.

Nowhere is safe.

Not even here.

We have to fight them

wherever they are.

[melodramatic music]

[grunts]

[dramatic music]

[music continues]

Lousy two-timer.

[gasps]

- Did you get it?

- Of course.

[suspires]

[buzzing]

[groaning]

[switches clicking]

What are you waiting for?

Nothing.

There he is.

Finish him off!

[chuckling]

If you think that

I'm gonna turn my back on you

you're outta your mind.

- What's the matter?

- What's the matter!

Ask her what's the matter?

She's the one who made

a deal with Superboy.

What are you

talking about?

I saw you and him.

You couldn't have.

She probably figured

that we couldn't take him out

so, she cut herself a deal.

- You're crazy!

- Ha-ha-ha. I'm crazy, am I?

Ha-ha-ha, crazy!

I'm going to show you crazy.

[maniacal laughter]

That's crazy.

[choking]

Oh no! Not again.

Armor-plated cheese head.

And nowfor the main course.

Lex!

[laughing]

Does it hurt? Do we have

a little ear-ache, hm?

I wonder if you

even hear me?

Gee, I hope you can

because these are gonna be

the last words

you'll ever hear.

or see, is the case, maybe.

[laughing]

Looks like you can do with

little help from your friends.

[screaming]

[dramatic music]

You are the one

Metallo saw with Superboy.

Sooner or later you would

have fought amongst yourselves.

You just needed

a little help, that's all.

[buzzing]

[grunting and groaning]

[grunting]

[blasts]

[dramatic music]

[theme music]

[music continues]
