03x19 - Werewolf

[bunniefuu]

Rocketed

from a distant planet,

to a bold new destiny

on Earth,

found by a Kansas family

and raised as Clark Kent,

he learned he possessed

the strength of steel,

the speed of light

and the desire

to help all mankind.

He is Superboy!

[music playing]

[animal howls]

[rustling]

[creature growling]

[creature snarling]

[static crackling]

Both of you,

twice the supplies as

others, look at Clark.

His name almost never

appears on the supply list.

He's very careful.

He almost never

- Excuse me, Mr. Jackson.

- Clark!

I was just using you

as an example of an organized

and conscientious employee.

In fact,

these are supposed

to go to the Bureau's

most improved employee,

and that is you, Clark.

Passes to

Universal Studio Tour?

All right, so it's not a bonus.

The guy's in public information

had a couple left over.

- Do you want 'em or not?

- Sure, thanks.

I almost forgot,

there's a woman waiting

in reception.

- She seems a little upset.

- I'm not upset.

I'm intense.

- What is it that's

making you intense, Miss

- Riley.

- Miss Riley.

- A werewolf.

Miss Riley, as you can see,

we are in a meeting.

These are cases.

Poltergeists, singing bushes,

apparitions of various kinds,

and these are workers

who think that little things

staples and paper clips

are little things.

What I don't need today

is an imaginary werewolf.

It's not imaginary.

I've got proof on this tape.

- [Lana] Were you hurt?

- [Miss Riley] No.

[Mr. Jackson] Maybe because

there wasn't anything there.

[Miss Riley] Yes, there was.

It's a werewolf.

I know. I've been tracking

this thing for months,

trying to get evidence

for my book.

Maybe you should have waited

a couple of more months

before you came in here.

Excuse me, Mr. Jackson.

I think I saw something.

You've got better eyes

than I do.

Maybe.

All right, you think there's

something there? You got it.

- Well, I didn't mean

- No, no, no. You got it.

You fill out the reports.

You follow through on it.

But don't come to me

when it turns out to be

a poodle with distemper.

Here are the clips

you wanted.

Whoa! You seen Clark?

He's up there.

Same place he was yesterday

and the day before

and the day before that.

Think he's gonna ask her out?

The other way around

is more like it.

Why's that?

Because Clark's heart belongs

to someone else.

[laughs]

I'm beginning to think

this Canaris guy isn't

your werewolf.

Clark, it's a process

of elimination.

Everywhere Canaris has been

in the last six months, there's

been a k*lling or a sighting,

and only on nights

with a full moon.

Could be coincidence.

Canaris is an expert

on the occult.

Ghosts, vampires

and werewolves.

He's totally obsessed.

I know it's him.

If it is,

our trail's run cold.

Maybe he's using

a different name.

Why don't we check

the police records

for reports of anything

suspicious on the nights

of the att*ck?

There must be hundreds

of police reports.

Clark, there's

a full moon tonight.

He could k*ll again.

Or pass on the curse.

What curse?

By scratching someone.

That's what

the legend says anyway.

What else does it say?

Supposedly if the werewolf

is k*lled,

the curse is lifted

from everyone it scratched.

You're thinking

of k*lling it.

Solid silver.

You shouldn't.

Clark, it has to be done.

Who knows how many people

have been affected.

Maybe this is just something

that Superboy should handle.

Except even he may be

vulnerable to the curse.

Six hotels and four apartments

in two hours.

This detective stuff

is k*lling me.

I feel like I'm on Dragnet.

Thanks for helping me, Clark.

I know I've been pushy.

- Intense.

- Intense.

You've been wonderful.

Can I help you folks?

Yes, we're looking

for a Mr. Miller.

He was arrested near here

for drunk and disorderly

conduct last month.

Miller's got an office here

and he takes a drink every

now and then.

So what?

So a few weeks ago,

he showed up here at dawn,

with his clothes torn

and mud all over his feet.

So he takes a couple

of drinks every now and then.

I don't think you should

be taking alcoholism

so lightly,

if that's what it is.

Hey look, I don't know

what his problem is.

But if you wanna find out,

why don't you ask him yourself?

That's not Miller.

That's Canaris.

This is the one he went in.

What now?

Christina?

[growling]

[growling]

[exhales]

[werewolf howls]

[growls]

Christina, where've you

been? I was worried.

Is it dead, the werewolf?

- Yeah.

- Oh, God.

Where'd you go?

I was afraid. I ran away.

And I couldn't find you today.

Don't ask

any more questions, OK?

He's dead.

That's all that matters now.

This is exactly what

I've been talking about.

You used a paper clip

when a staple would have

been just as effective.

A paper clip costs

a tenth of a cent,

but a staple only costs

four ten-thousandths

of a cent.

Surely you can see that.

Of course, what was I thinking?

The police found a derelict

in an alley last night.

His throat was torn out.

By this alleged werewolf?

Same kind of wound,

but it wasn't the werewolf.

At least not

the one Superboy fought.

- But why didn't you call?

- Can't we just forget about it?

- But I wanna know.

- You know what I think?

I think you spend

too much time in this place.

You need to get out.

Come on.

You're telling me

that there were two

werewolves out there?

Coroner says the derelict

was k*lled two hours

after Canaris d*ed.

Well, where did this other

werewolf come from?

- And who is it?

- [telephone rings]

Jackson here.

Oh, thanks for getting back

to me so quickly.

Mm-hmm.

I didn't know that.

Are you absolutely certain?

OK, thank you.

Well?

That was my friend

from the university.

He knew Canaris and he

asked me about Canaris'

research assistant.

- He had an assistant?

- For the past two years.

And her name

is Christina Riley.

Why didn't she tell us that?

She's with Clark.

Let's ask her.

Where's Kent?

He just left with that girl

he's been working with.

Clark, you've been so great.

And you trusted me right

from the start.

Just part of my job.

You really trusted me.

Well, you trusted me,

too, didn't you?

I do now.

There's something

I should tell you.

Never mind.

No, what?

What is it?

Doesn't matter anymore.

Of course we checked

his apartment.

He's driving a b*at-up

'68 Chevy truck.

Green. Can't you put out

an APB or something?

It's very important

that he call his office

immediately.

Why else would she lie?

She's hiding something.

Like what?

Like she's the other werewolf.

- Come on.

- No, no, it all fits.

Remember when Clark

said she disappeared

at the office building?

That's when she k*lled

the homeless man.

And the tape we saw.

What about it?

The werewolf could

have scratched her then.

See, she used us

to help her find

Canaris for her.

She was afraid if we knew

the truth, we wouldn't help her.

She wanted to k*ll him

to lift the curse

from herself.

It doesn't matter anymore,

right?

Isn't the curse supposed

to be over now that

Canaris is dead?

Yeah, according to this book.

But this one says nothing

can end it,

except death.

So does this one

and this one.

Oh, and there's

something else.

According to this one,

"the werewolf tries

to k*ll the one it loves."

Clark.

And after that,

I took my internship

at the Bureau in Capital City.

And here I am.

I didn't realize

this was such a long drive.

I must be boring you to death.

I'm sorry.

No, not at all.

OK, they put out an APB

on his truck.

If he's in this city,

they'll find him.

He could be anywhere by now.

I know where they went.

What are you doing

with that?

I'm not taking any chances.

Go to the security office

at the studio.

I'll meet you there

as soon as I can.

And hurry,

Orlando's a long way.

[knock on door]

We're closed.

No, you gotta let me in.

It's urgent.

Government business.

What does the government

want with me?

I need something in silver.

Are you OK?

You don't look so good.

Yeah, I'm OK.

It's just that earthquake ride

really shook me up.

That's the idea, Clark.

Another full moon tonight.

Really?

Sometimes there's two

in a row.

Anything wrong?

No.

Not anymore.

Oh.

Is everything OK?

I don't feel so well.

I'll be right back.

It doesn't

have to be pretty.

Yeah, yeah, but it does

have to work.

[werewolf growling]

[women screaming]

Her name is Christina.

I'd appreciate it you

could check on her.

It is still warm.

Thanks.

Wait.

Maybe you need one

of these, too?

Some other time.

But you don't understand.

Sure I do.

There's a werewolf

running loose.

It's his job.

He works here.

Him and I go bowling

on weekends.

No, this is a real one.

- [growling]

- [screaming]

Bowling, huh?

[growling]

The werewolf.

It's Christina Riley.

She came here

with Clark

Christina? Stay here.

Christina.

Christina.

[growling]

Christina,

it's me Clark, remember?

Remember how

I trusted you?

Now you have to trust me.

You have to fight it.

[snarling]

[g*nsh*t]

[crowd gasps]

There was no other way.
