03x11 - Superboy... Lost

Post by bunniefuu »

[Announcer] 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

He is Superboy.

And the NASA scientists

estimate the meteor's weight

to be three-and-a-half tons.

By colliding

with it in space,

Superboy will fragment

it into smaller pieces

that will burn up in the

Earth's outer atmosphere.

- How long?

- Any second?

[Anchorman] There is

some concern about

some kind of

titanium alloy which is

OK, we, uh

There seems to be a problem.

NASA's lost radar contact

with Superboy and the meteor.

Hopefully it will

only be momentary.

While we wait, let me

take a moment to recap

At about 9:00 a.m.,

Superboy went up to

which scientists had

feared was on a collision

We've reestablished radar

contact, and the meteor

But there is no sign

of Superboy.

Jeremy, wait.

[grunts]

Are you OK?

Who are you?

I don't know.

[Anchorman] So, while Superboy

destroyed the meteor,

NASA officials are still unable

to pinpoint his whereabouts.

Well, glad that's over.

It's not over.

What about Superboy?

Oh, he'll show up.

He always does.

[exhales]

You remember anything yet?

Your name or what

happened to you?

Why you're wearing that outfit?

[Clark] No.

Hey, easy.

Give it some time.

I'm Marissa.

This is my son, Jeremy.

Hi.

We're both a little

rusty on conversation.

We've been out here

for about five years.

This book has helped

me get Jeremy through

and a broken wrist.

And under amnesia it says

that your memory usually

Let's get you something to eat.

Come on, sit down.

Did you make that

all by yourself?

Jeremy, I said not

in the house.

Why don't you go out

and get us some firewood.

He hates it out here.

He's mad at me for taking

him away from the city.

So why don't you go back?

I want him to learn

how to survive.

Take charge of himself.

That's something he

can use for his future.

Did you build this place?

It's part of an

abandoned hunting lodge.

I fixed it up.

I like it here.

Eat your dinner.

Don't you miss civilization?

What's there to miss?

Bills? Traffic jams? Smog?

Forks?

[chuckles]

[footsteps]

Did you hear that?

Hear what?

Shh! Don't say a word.

[footsteps]

Jeremy? Jeremy?

Jeremy! Jeremy!

[chuckles]

Let the boy go.

Let's see what

it's worth to you.

[grunts]

Let go, man!

Come on, you're gonna k*ll me!

Let go! Let go!

Are you all right?

- Who was that?

- I don't know.

Why did you let him get away?

[sighs] I don't know,

something inside me

just made me hold back.

Thank you.

Thinking about Superboy?

Yeah.

He'll turn up.

Well, the news reports

haven't been very encouraging.

Come on, remember who

we're talking about here?

I'm sure you're right.

[chuckles]

The secret to catching

frogs is timing.

You gotta sneak up

on them slowly and

But not too hard,

or you'll squish them.

Right, we don't wanna do that.

OK, concentrate.

Keep your eyes peeled.

Had did you do that?

I had a good teacher, I guess.

Jeremy, get in the boat.

We're leaving.

Leaving? Are we

going back to the city?

- [sighs] No. Just come on.

- I don't want to.

Jeremy, I said get in the boat.

I don't want to.

This is because of what

happened yesterday, isn't it?

- No.

- You knew who that guy was.

No, this is none

of your business.

- Ow!

- I'm sorry.

All right.

[sighs]

My husband sent him.

Your husband?

I was only 16.

I ran away.

Damon had like this

little family.

They took me in

and gave me food.

But after a while,

and little by little,

I began to see him

for what he really was.

He lived off these people,

ran them with fear

and intimidation,

and there was no way I was

gonna have that for my son.

So I ran.

I had to.

I had to run all the way out

here just to get away from him.

He is a very dangerous man.

- I don't wanna go back.

- You won't have to.

[sighs] Are you crazy?

Now that they know where we

live, they'll send others.

They'll k*ll you.

All I know is you

need me right now.

You can't keep running forever.

Well, then we'll need these.

I took them when I left,

hoped I'd never need them.

I hope so, too.

What about your other life?

Don't you wanna go back?

I'm in no hurry.

Thirteen years I've

taken care of you.

Fed you, clothed you

taught you.

I have been very fond

of you, John.

I'll go back there.

Too late.

I'm very disappointed in you.

Very disappointed.

Look, I'm sorry

I disappointed you.

But I'll go back there.

I'll take care of it.

You know I'm good for it.

[yelling]

You're no longer one of us.

Now bring me my son.

You remember anything yet?

Well, take your time

it's good for Jeremy

to have a man around.

I don't mind either.

You don't even know me.

I don't even know myself.

Well, I know you're not like

anyone I've ever met before.

You're sweet and

gentle to my son.

Thanks.

There's other things here

like these clothes

and my hearing's so

sensitive I can hear a pin drop.

And my eyes

I just can't help

feeling there's some

Maybe your purpose

is to be with us?

Ma! Mom!

Jeremy!

Hey, it's been a long time,

hasn't it, Marissa?

- Blow her brains out!

- I'm thinking I'll do that.

Hold it!

Let them go.

Jeremy, it's OK, honey.

He won't sh**t.

I can see it in his eyes.

No.

Don't let them take him!

Lana, I'm really sorry.

Don't you think I know.

He's still out there.

I can feel it.

[laughing]

Well, it looks like they've

written off Superboy. [chuckles]

Superboy?

Well, you have been out in

the jungle a long time,

[imitates gorilla]

[laughs]

Hello, Jeremy.

Don't be afraid.

Don't touch me,

you're just a con man.

It sounds like your

mother's been filling

You're the liar.

You've been lying to all

these people. I hate you!

No! Please!

k*ll him!

[grunts]

[grunts]

Stand back.

[chuckles] It's OK.

It's OK, son.

Put the g*n down.

[whimpering]

[woman] There's something

weird going on here, man.

Something's weird with him.

This guy's weird!

[yelling]

No! Please!

Don't you hurt me!

[air rushing]

[laughing]

You OK?

I can't explain it,

but I can fly.

b*ll*ts bounce off me,

I can burn things

No one will ever

bother us again.

I wanna stay with you.

No, you can't stay.

You can't.

Look.

He's right,

you can't stay.

What about you?

It's OK.

We'll be all right now.
