Previously on "Superman & Lois"

I said don't make everything

about you; it's selfish.

I'm selfish? You know what? Go to your room.

It's probably why Dad cheated on you.

[GASPS]

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Oh, hey.

I just found out I have cancer.

Please, Dr. Irons, I just need to know

if your brother might have

had some connection

to Bruno Mannheim.

By selling tech and weapons.

What were you thinking?

You know that Mannheim

or anyone from Intergang

wouldn't think twice about k*lling you.

Ah, I've been wanting to try these out.

We need to talk about the blood you found.

- Whose blood was it?

- Yours.

[SIRENS WAILING]

Let's go! Let's go!

Go! Go! Go!



Rescue 1, how's it look up there?

Did we get everyone out?

Hotshot, that's a negative.

Our spotters see headlights

way up on Sawmill Road.

Looks like it could be an RV.

[ENGINE REVVING]

Look out!

The smoke's too thick.

I can barely see.

[TRIUMPHANT MUSIC]



Everyone's gone. We're safe.

[HIGH-PITCHED WARBLING]

What?

It's your mom.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Dad, I can handle this.

I'll yell if anything happens.

Start with the perimeter,

then you work your way in.

Be careful.

Lois?

Lois, are you

OK.

Just clumsy.

And for the record, you don't get

to use your super-hearing to keep tabs on me

just because I'm sick.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]



Eggs?

Not hungry.

[DULL THUDDING]

- Dude, just give it back.

- Get out of my room!

[INDISTINCT ARGUING]

[SIGHS] Be right be back.

Oh, my God! This is mine!

Dude, just let me wear it one day.

You have a thousand just like it.

Not in this color, all right? I told you!

- What is wrong with you two?

- He stole my hoodie.

- It's not his!

- Both of you stop right now.

Your mother just had her first

round of chemo yesterday.

Today she needs to recover

in peace and quiet,

so what she's not gonna listen to all day

is the two of you up here

fighting over a sweater.

Understood?

- Right.

- Yeah.

You know, maybe you guys

just go do something

outside the house today, huh?

In case she needs to nap

or she's not feeling well?

Yeah, I can head over

to Candice's or something.

I guess Grandpa wanted to go fishing.

Great. Great.

Off you go. Godspeed.

If you need something,

text me, not your mom.

Do not bother your mother with anything.

- Idiot.

- Dumbass.

- I know what you're thinking.

- That we had a deal?

I am just reading this amazing article

about how Bruno Mannheim

invested $200 million

in Hob's Bay Medical Center five years ago,

the very same hospital

where Dr. Aleister Hook

allegedly treated Intergang members.

It seems like Mannheim

had the run of the place.

Hmm.

We're not doing that today.

No researching.

No emailing. No phone calls.

Today is officially rest day.

Mannheim has your blood, Clark.

Yeah, and he'll still have it tomorrow.

So what are we gonna binge?

I was thinking "Alien Ancestors."

I have enough aliens in my life.

I was thinking "Forensic Confessions."

Oh. Mm-hmm.

Let's go.

[BLENDER WHIRRING]

- Dad!

- Hey!

Did you have to buy

the loudest blender they had?

Hey, listen.

You sleep here, you're gonna wake up

at a reasonable hour, all right?

Your definition of reasonable

is unreasonable.

[PHONE DINGS AND BUZZES]

You, um you ready to talk

about what happened last night?

[PHONE RINGING AND BUZZING]

- Well, you gonna answer that?

- [SIGHS]

Dad.

Hey.

Can you please hand Sarah the phone?

Yeah. One sec.

- Sarah.

- I don't wanna talk to her.

You don't hang up on your mother.

She shouldn't have slapped me.

Whoa.

She she slapped you?

That's why I was so upset last night.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Wow, um

What happened?

She came home all pissy

that you had asked her

about Mr. Irons, and then

Oh, hell.

She's just been so pushy lately,

and then I called her out on it, and

Listen, I'm

I'm sorry that you're stuck

in the middle of this, mijita.

I am.

That should've never happened, though.

[PHONE RINGING AND BUZZING]

And I'm gonna make sure it never does again.

Hey, I'm coming over.



[SIGHS] [DOOR CLICKS SHUT]

[COMPUTER BLIPPING]

Render complete.

And the energy source for the gauntlets?

It appears the main source of power

was plasma propulsion.

It used ion thrusters?

That is correct.



Deploy posterior drives.



[KNOCK AT DOOR]

- Hey, John.

- Uh, sorry,

your your phones went

straight to voice mail.

Oh, yeah, I'm, uh,

forcing Lois to relax today.

I assumed, but this couldn't wait.

What's going on?

[SIGHS] OK, look, um,

the kryptonite gauntlets used against you

at the warehouse, something about

how they were made looked familiar,

so I analyzed the construction.

Clark, I think that tech was

made by the me of this Earth.

If there's more out there, if

If Intergang is really using tech

that John Irons made, maybe

Maybe Diggle was right.

Maybe there is a connection

between Bruno Mannheim

and my doppelganger's death.

Yeah, um

We know.

What what what do you mean you know?

Look, the whole reason Lois and Chrissy

were at that medical facility

in the first place

is because we we've kind of

been investigating Mannheim.

I asked you to leave it alone.

Lois and Mannheim have a history.

She thought if she could prove

he k*lled your doppelganger,

we could finally put him behind bars,

so, uh, she went to talk to Dr. Irons.

Lois talked to my sister?

Why would she do that?

Darlene already lost her brother.

She doesn't need to get dragged into this.

Hey, John.

Is everything OK?

Nothing that can't wait.

I need to get back to the shop.

Feel better.



[INDISTINCT CHATTER, DOG BARKING]

[KNOCKING]

[SIGHS]

Uh

Mr. Pergande.

Is, uh, Candice here?

I sent her on a run.

Before she gets back,

maybe you and me should chat.

About what?

Well, I don't know.

Is there anything you and I need to discuss?

This is about my truck.

I don't know anything about that.

But I sure as hell don't need you spreading

any more lies about me.

- I'm not spreading any lies.

- Really?

'Cause I heard you thought

I was dealing X-K,

which just isn't true.

See, I'm not that kind of person.

You hear me?

Hey!

I said do you hear me?

You stole my truck.

- What'd you say?

- You stole it.

And you took it to a chop shop.

Look, I know it was you.

The hell I did!

You had my mom's watch.

- Better shut your mouth.

- Oh, what, you don't want

everyone hearing that you're a crap dad?

I don't like liars.

Keep it up, you'll get more than my fist.



I cannot imagine marrying

into this family; they are awful.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING OVER TV]



What is it?

Mm, nothing.

- Clark.

- I think we need popcorn.

Mm, the kernels always

get stuck in my teeth.

Oh, come on, it'll be like

our movie nights back in Metropolis.

- I'm fine, really.

- Look, I'm just gonna go

- to Brit and Dunn's real quick.

- For popcorn?

Yeah, I'll be back

before they solve the case.

[DOOR CLICKS OPEN AND SHUT]

It's clearly the father-in-law.

It was wrong not to say anything.

You had no business keeping that from me.

We were just trying not to upset you.

I don't need you to protect my feelings.

What I need is for you and Lois to listen

when I ask you not to do something.

I know.

I'm sorry.

OK, what exactly did Darlene

say about the other me?

That her family believes

he was selling weapons

to people like Bruno Mannheim.

Yeah, which we now to be true.

[SIGHS]

You're not him.

Was there anything else?

Your sister is the one who encouraged Lois

to get those tests.

If it wasn't for her,

we wouldn't know about the cancer.

She was always a great doctor.

- Where you going?

- To talk with my sister.

Whoa, she doesn't know you exist.

But Bruno Mannheim might.

That assassin of his

saw me at Lana's office.

What if they come looking for me?

If I'm gonna keep Nat safe,

I need to know everything I can

about the me of this Earth.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]



- Why are we stopping here?

- You and I need to talk.

Here. Take a look.

These from last night?

See anything there

you should be alarmed about?

I mean, my hood fell down

for, like, a second,

but you can't even see my face.

I can see your hair,

which is why you're getting it cut.

You're not serious.

That curly mop is just a big billboard

telling the world who you really are.

Then then I'll be more careful.

Nope. Can't take that risk.

Look, first thing we do at the DOD

is give recruits the old high and tight.

Yeah, but I'm not a recruit.

And besides, my dad never had

to do anything like that.

That's because he didn't look like he was

auditioning for Thin Lizzy.

Your father understood the best disguise

was to just blend in

That and the glasses.

- I'm not doing it.

- Don't be stubborn.

- This is important.

- No. No.

If my dad wanted me to cut

my hair, he would have told me.

He's got enough on his plate right now.

Both your parents do.

This isn't about them.

No, this is about you

being responsible enough

to be a hero.

Like you even know what that means.

Don't you disrespect me like that.

I'm a four-star general

in the U.S. Armed Forces!



- That was fast.

- Just me, Mom.

You're not even gonna say hello?

[SIGHS] Hi.

Now can I go to my room?

- Get down here.

- Mom.

Now.

[SIGHS]

What happened?

It's fine. I just

I took an elbow playing basketball.

That looks like more than an elbow.

- Did you get into a fight?

- No, OK?

Just stop. It's fine.

Jonathan, what aren't you telling me?



Dad said not to bother you today.

- He said that?

- OK, no.

It's this isn't helping, OK?

Just please, just watch your show.

I'm fine.



I am so sorry.

Lana, what were you thinking?

- I wasn't.

- You know, we

We both promised

each other that we would never

lay a hand on our kids,

especially after everything

that your mom put you through.

Look, I know.

I lost control.

There's no excuse.

OK. Then I'm glad to hear that.

You know, Sarah

Sarah should've never called you pushy.

That's not why I slapped her.

Well, then what was it?

Uh, let's not even go there.

No, Lana, I think I deserve

to know what happened.

Sarah said it was my fault

you cheated on me.



She said what?

She called me selfish and

said that's why you cheated.

You know that's not true, right, Lana?

Look, it doesn't matter.

It does matter to me.

She was just trying to hurt me.

She should've never thrown

my mistakes in your face.

OK? You don't deserve that.

I just wish that I could

tell her how sorry I am.

OK. Good.

I'm gonna hold you to that.

OK, got some popcorn,

and I got some of those

gummy worms you like.

Clark, it doesn't take

that long to get gummy worms.

Where were you?

[SIGHS]

Went to John Henry's.

I knew something was up earlier.

You have the worst poker face.

I know. I know.

Look, he just discovered Bruno's tech

was made by the other John Henry, so I

told him about your visit with his sister.

You told him that without me?

It's fine. I smoothed it over.

Clark, I don't need you

cleaning up my messes.

We are a team; you don't get to have

- those discussions without me.

- OK, Lois

And also, you don't get to tell our boys

not to bother me with their problems.

I am their mother.

Their problems are my problems.

OK, babe, babe, I just thought

you could use a break

from all the headaches.

From having two teenagers

who are constantly messing up?

That's not gonna change because I'm sick.

Jonathan just came home with a black eye

the size of Australia.

- Was he in a fight?

- Probably.

I don't know; he wouldn't tell me

because you have him acting

like I'm too fragile to handle it,

which is exactly what

I didn't wanna have happen.

I am a mother and a wife and a reporter.

Cancer doesn't change me.

Telling people to treat me

differently is not OK.

I I'm I'm sorry.

It's all right.

Now let's go make sure our son hasn't joined

some stupid fight club.

You are gonna tell us

who did this to you right now.

- But, Mom

- Don't "But, Mom" me.

This is a big deal. You were att*cked.

I know; I just don't wanna stress you out.

You're

Sick?

Yes, I am, but that's not

an excuse to exclude me

from knowing what is going on

in my own family.

Your mom's right, and I was

wrong to tell you otherwise.

So what happened?

I I guess it started a few days ago

when my truck was stolen.

- Who stole your truck?

- Your truck got stolen?

Do you guys know that Grandpa

wants me to cut my hair?

Did you know that Jonathan's

truck got stolen?

What happened to your face?

Jordan, you heard your father.

Did you know about the truck?

I mean, I

- Sit down.

- [SIGHS]

[HIGH-PITCHED WARBLING]

It's your dad.

Something's come up at the DOD.

Go. I've got this.

Now, start with the truck.

You're not gonna like this.

Clear the room.

You heard the general.

Everybody up.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]



I've been looking into how Mannheim

got his hands on your blood.

And?

It came from the DOD.

How is that even possible?

When you were hospitalized

after Ally Allston att*cked you.

Whoa, the DOD took my blood

while I was unconscious?

They were trying to save your life.

- It was medically necessary.

- At that time.

What have they been

doing with it since then?

I don't know.

How could you lie to me like that?

I didn't lie.

OK, so you just told me

part of the story, then.

She hit me. What does the rest even matter?

Because of what you said, Sarah.

You tried to weaponize my affair

just to, what, hurt her?

So that makes her slapping me OK?

No. No.

No, it it does not.

OK?

Look, your mama feels terrible

about what happened,

and and she

She wants to apologize.

Yeah, probably to make herself feel better.

Sarah, she wants to fix this.

[SIGHS]

Your mama loves you very much.

Then how could she do that to me?



You know it was her that found you

the night that you tried to

Tried to hurt yourself?

Dad, what does that have

to do with anything?

[SIGHS]

You were on the floor, unconscious,

and she called 911, but then

Then you stopped breathing.

And when the help arrived,

they found her on her knees,

giving you CPR

Dad.

Trying to save her child's life.

And even when the doctors told

her that you were gonna be OK,

she did not leave your side.

It's just everything's changed.

I know.

You don't live with us anymore, and

I just see Mom differently.

Look, mija, your mama made a big mistake.

All right? She she did.

But you wouldn't wanna be judged

on your worst day, now, would you?

So maybe let's not judge

your mom on hers, OK?



Dr. Irons?

- Oh!

- I'm not your brother.

I'm I'm not your brother.

I look like him, but I'm

I'm a different person

from a different world.

Like the place with the square sun?

Yeah.

Something like that.

I'm friends with Lois Lane.

I know what you said about your brother.

I just need to know more about him.

I have nothing else to say about that.

Please, please, please.

I may not be your brother, but

I have a daughter.

And if I'm gonna raise her on this world

where a guy who looks like me

was m*rder*d by Bruno Mannheim

I need more information.

All I know is, when my

brother got out of the service,

things were good for a while.

And then they weren't.

John became distant, paranoid.

Then my dad heard from an old army friend

that he was selling

m*llitary weapons on the side.

He heard?

It wasn't a rumor.

When my dad confronted John,

he didn't deny it.

I loved my brother.

More than anything,

I wanted my dad to be wrong.

But then John shut me out of his life.

He told me that I would

be better off without him.

Six months later, he was m*rder*d.

I'm sorry.

I, um

I knew this would be difficult.

[SOMBER MUSIC]

Except for the scar,

you look just like him.

You're a dead ringer for my Darlene.

Back in my world, we were really close.

Same here.

We were pretty much inseparable.

Mm-hmm. It drove my father crazy.

He used to call us the Wonder Twins.

The Wonder Twins, yeah.



I I can't do this.

It's not your fault, but please,

don't come back.



Mr. Irons,

my boss would like a word.

Who's your boss?

I think you know.

[TENSE MUSIC]



So after your truck was stolen,

you decided to risk your lives

and Natalie's to get it back?

You had just gotten your diagnosis.

We didn't wanna bother you.

And I I mean, we did get the truck back.

At what cost?

Those guys could have really hurt you.

Jonathan, who did this to you?

I was with Grandpa.

Jonathan?

It was Candice's dad.

Emmitt Pergande did this?



Mom. Mom, please.

Stay in the car.

[SIGHS]

This is not a good idea.



Did you hit my son?

Don't look at him. Look at me.

Listen, whatever story

he may have told you

Don't you dare call my son a liar,

you miserable coward.

[CHUCKLES]

Watch your tone.

The only reason I am not calling the sheriff

is because of your daughter.

Don't think I won't lay hands on a woman.

Men like you don't scare me.

Maybe I need to teach

all three of you a lesson.

Mom, we should go.

- Boys!

- Mom, I got this.

No, you don't.

Get back in the car, both of you.

That's right.

Best be getting back.



You stay away from my family.



Get in the car.

You two head upstairs.

We'll talk about this more

when your dad gets home.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING]

- Mom?

- You OK?

Mom?

[GRUNTS] I'm



I'm fine.

We truly thought we had this under control

because all the vials are accounted for.

And yet somehow his blood

ended up in the hands

of one of the most dangerous

criminals in Metropolis.

No one could have predicted

someone was capable

of synthesizing it from a single drop.

You never should have kept

my blood in the first place,

especially without telling me.

After you recovered from your incident

with Ms. Allston, we wanted to be prepared

in case we ever found ourselves

in a similar situation.

Have you used it

for anything else since then?

Nothing.

Hand to God.

Well, clearly all these bells and whistles

aren't doing a damn thing.

We need to make sure

this never happens again.

I agree.

Thank you for your time, General.



[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]

John Henry Irons.

It's one thing to hear that

you're alive on this planet,

but to see another version

of you here, in the flesh

What do you want?

To know if you're the type

of man I think you are.



For years, Lois Lane

has been coming after me,

convinced that I took over Intergang

after its leader, Boss Moxie,

was k*lled by Lex Luthor.

No matter how much good I've done,

no matter how much

I've transformed my community,

she continues to dig like a dog with a bone.

So she's at it again,

even sending Superman to my home.

What's that got to do with me?

[SIGHS]

You tell me.



All right, look.

We all knew this was gonna be awkward, OK?

But the longer we wait to talk about it,

the harder it's gonna be

to move past it, all right?

Sarah

I am so sorry about what happened.

I wish I could take it back.

I know that I can't.

All I can ask for is a chance

to make things right.

- How?

- By promising you right now

that what happened

will never, ever happen again.

I never wanna hurt you, honey, never.

I'm so disappointed in myself.



[SIGHS]

Mom, about what I said

I didn't mean it.

I know.

I don't know why I said it,

and it was really hurtful.

- And

- [SIGHS]

I know it wasn't true.



I just want things to be better.



Look, mijita.

This is a first step.

So maybe just

Just be willing to give it a try.



What's wrong?

- Mom's not feeling good.

- I'm fine.

I just overexerted myself a little.

Babe, told you to take it easy.

Wrong day for that.

What happened?

We went to talk to Candice's dad.

He's the one who hit you?

[TENSE MUSIC]

And stole my truck.



He threatened Mom with a g*n.

It's fine, Clark. I handled it.

No.

This is not a job for Superman.

He's not going.

I'd heard rumblings last year

about a man in a steel suit

flying around Metropolis,

helping Superman.

I didn't think much of it at the time,

but now it makes sense.

The John Henry Irons I knew

always wanted to be a hero,

make a difference in the world.



He was one of the smartest men I ever met.

But he just wouldn't listen.



How smart are you?

You need to walk away, John.

Where is Darlene?

Walk away, and so does she.

[TENSE MUSIC]

Don't make the same mistake he did.



Go to hell.



I need you to scan Metropolis.

Look for the same plasma expl*sive

I had in my ship when I arrived.



Clark.

Are you OK?

Nope.

Emmitt Pergande?

I'm Jon Kent's dad.

Lois Lane's husband.

We need to have a talk.

Get the hell out of my face.



You hit my son,

pulled a g*n on my wife.

And now you and I are gonna

step outside so we can talk.

I'm not going anywhere with you.



I'd really rather not do this

in front of your daughter.

[ITEMS CLATTERING]

You think she hasn't seen this before?



[GRUNTING]

Now, if you ever

thr*aten my family again,

take something that isn't yours,

or sell another dangerous drug

I will come for you.

OK.

And my wife will expose who you really are,

and you will go away for a very long time.

Now leave.



[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Damn, Kent.

[CLEARS THROAT] I'm sorry

to interrupt everyone's dinner.



And, um, I'm really, really

sorry you had to see that.

Did my dad really hurt Jon?

Can I see him?

Yeah, of course.



- I've located the expl*sive.

- Where?

It's in the Baker line parking garage.

And, John, you only have 30 seconds

before it detonates.



Help me! Please help!

[DEVICE BEEPING]

- John, please help me.

- I got you. I got you.

- Please help me.

- Hold on. Hold on.

- Hold on, OK?

- 20 seconds.

I've seen this before.

I designed this.

Hold on. Wait. Wait.

Wait. Wait.

You've sped up the detonation, John.

OK, I used biometrics as a k*ll switch.

Is it fingerprints? Fingerprints.

5, 4, 3

- Biometrics. Please.

- 2, 1.

[POWER WHIRS DOWN]



[GASPING]

[SOBBING]

I'm sorry, Darlene.

I'm so sorry.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]



I should k*ll you right now.

But you won't.

You don't know me.

I know your family, though,

and not just that sister of yours

here in Metropolis

but the whole family down in New Orleans.

Anything happens to me, they all die.

My people are just waiting for the order.



I guess I know you better than you think,

which is why you're gonna fly out of here

and never come back.

Because if I see you or your w*r suit again,

you're gonna find out

exactly the kind of man I am.

I know what you are.

Then it shouldn't be a problem.

Consider it a favor for an old friend.



I knew he wasn't a great guy,

but I never thought that he

would do anything like this.

[WHIMPERS] I'm so sorry.

No, this isn't your fault.

Maybe it is, though.

I mean, everything my dad's done, right

The X-K, stealing your truck

He was just

[SNIFFLES] He was just trying

to take care of me.

Those were his decisions, not yours.

It's just, he's

He's all I've got.

You have us.

And until you figure everything

out, you can stay here.

Seriously? For real?

I I can't. I mean, you have cancer.

Yeah, but it doesn't get to decide this.

I do.

And Clark.

You can stay in Jonathan's room,

and he'll stay with his brother.

Boys, why don't you guys go

with Candice to get her things?

Hmm?

Thank you, Ms. Lane.



Where's Candice's dad now?

[HIGH-PITCHED WARBLING]

Sounds like his car just

crossed into Shawnee County.

That was fast.

You must have really scared him.

You sure about this, her staying here?

It's just until she finds

something permanent.

[LAUGHING] This is gonna be

a horrible disaster,

- isn't it?

- Yeah, probably, yeah.

[LAUGHS]

I love you.

I love you too.

[ROOSTER CROWING]



More eggs, please.

Well, looks like your appetite's back.

Hey, there's, uh, breakfast if you want any.

- You can have my seat.

- Uh, I'm OK. Thanks.

No, uh, I'm gonna drop her off at work.

Oh, uh, I can bring you back

some of that tea if you want.

That would be lovely. Thank you.

All right. See ya.

Tea?

Yeah, seems like everyone's

on their best behavior today.

That was very nice of you

to offer your seat to Candice,

especially compared to how you treated

your grandfather the other day.

He told you about that?

Yeah, he did.

And it's not OK for you

to talk to an adult like that.

- You understand?

- Yes, sir.

So you are going to apologize to him,

and then the two of you are

going back to that barbershop.

Look, your granddad's right.

If you wanna keep being a hero,

you've got to be careful,

even if that means doing

something you don't wanna do.

[QUIRKY MUSIC]

OK.



I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have spoken to you like that.

Gonna be honest with you, son.

What you said really hurt my feelings.

There was a time when I would

not have admitted that, but

it's true.

Well, you didn't deserve it.

I feel bad; you were just trying to help me.

I appreciate you saying that.

We good?

[CHUCKLES] Yeah.

Yeah, we're good.

All right. [SIGHS]

Guess I got to get this over with.

Hold on a second.

After you ran off, I got to thinking

about what it's like to be your age.

How everything seemed so damn important,

especially how you look.

And even though I believe you'd benefit

from a nice trim

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Maybe there's another option.

Like what?

Had my team put together something

that should keep

that hair of yours in check.

This is awesome!

That's, uh, not even the best part.

[CHUCKLES]

Uh

these belonged to my dad.

He flew a P-38 Lightning

over Berlin in the Second World w*r.

Even earned a Flying Cross.

I want you to have them.

Grandpa.

Plus, I think they'll

tie together the whole outfit.

Can't have my grandson

not looking sharp out there.

Thank you.

I'll take care of them, I promise.

I know you will.



Well, now that we got that over with,

how about you and me go fishing

for real this time?

- Yeah.

- Yeah?

Yeah, let's do it.

I am so sorry.

Your sister would never have been a target

if I had just listened to you.

Bruno found me because

of what happened with Lana,

not because you talked to Darlene.

It's still not an excuse

for keeping it from you.

Maybe I should have another talk with Bruno.

Not before I set up security measures

that keeps Darlene

and the rest of my family safe.

- How much time do you need?

- Couple weeks.

Then we'll figure out

a way to go after Mannheim.

Actually, I already have one.

His hospital.

If I sign up as a chemo patient there,

I would be right in the middle of Hob's Bay.

Looking firsthand into

what he did to Henry Miller.

And getting treatments from

a place controlled by Mannheim.

That he has spent millions promoting

as the best facility in the country.

He's not gonna let anything bad

happen to me there.

It's too public.

[SIGHS]

Clark, I promise, getting

healthy is still the priority.

OK.

- But I'm going with you.

- All right.

I'll do the paperwork when we get home.

It'll be in their system

at the end of the day.



You think she's really just coming

to Hob's Bay for treatment?

No.

[TENSE MUSIC]

If you want her taken out

Then I'll make those arrangements.



For now, we need to know what she wants.

Got someone in mind to help out with that?

I do.



Me.
