You were right about Clark. He wasn't who I thought he was. I'm surprised I hadn't noticed earlier. So much for my crack journalistic instinct.
No, no, love has a way of blinding even the sharpest minds. We don't look because we don't want to see. But once love has been stripped away, then we see the real person clearly. They're revealed to us with all their flaws, their foibles, and their secrets.
Come with me.
Smallville's my home. It's your home too.
Not anymore.
You've made quite a reputation for yourself. I set up this test so I could see with my own eyes if you were man or myth. And clearly, you're both.
Well, I'm glad I could clear it up for you... Mr. Edge.
I'd like to talk about a job opportunity.
Thanks. But I'm really not looking for work right now. I like to fly solo.
No matter how many bullets bounce off you, Kal, you're still a kid, and I'm the biggest crime boss in Metropolis.
Well, I would think you could afford better help.
That's why we're talking. I got this one job. It'll make you Midas rich. So when you are tired of playing the little league, you know where to find me.
You killed your father.
Yeah, it was inevitable. I had to do it. Only one of us could survive. See, back there, he was a rich and powerful guy. He was always criticizing me, never thinking I was good enough. And it just kept chipping away, chipping away till there was nothing left... I thought you and I were kindred spirits.
No, Louis. You're a psychopath.
Well, there's one in all of us. I just let mine out.
Clark, it's me.
Jonathan. How's the farm?
Clark, your mother and I love you very much and we want you to come home.
Is that right? Hey, what about not dwelling on the past and making a fresh new start? Come on, you can admit it. You're happier I'm gone.
Son, that's not true.
I'm not your son! And you're not my parents, you never have been! You never will be!
Clark, what is the matter with you? Your parents love you! I love you.
Do you always betray the people you love?
I need you to break into a secure building. The office on the 60th floor has a very valuable package. It's in a titanium-reinforced steel safe. Not a job for mere mortals.
Sounds like easy money.
I haven't told you where you're going yet.
[reads a card] LuthorCorp Plaza. You want me to break into Lionel Luthor's office?
Will that be a problem?
No. It'll be my pleasure.
Hello, Clark.
Jonathan Kent. Isn't it a little past your bedtime? How'd you find me?
Your biological father.
You two are working together now, huh? That's cute. But I didn't listen to him and I'm certainly not gonna listen to you.
You don't realize how dangerous you are when you're wearing that ring!
It's not the ring. I was born that way. You just can't accept it.
[Jonathan sees the Kryptonian symbol burned on Clarks chest]
What in the hell did Jor-El do to you, Clark?
He made sure I'd never forget who my real father is.
You warned me there were things about you that I wouldn't understand. I guess I just didn't want to believe it.
I was protecting you.
From what? That's the part I can't figure out because, Clark, the only thing that keeps hurting me is you.
It's ironic. In the most remote solitude I still managed to find an enemy. I suppose I was just hallucinating from malaria, but the enemy I found was real. I got a good look at myself, or at least the part I've always tried to ignore.
Lex, I guess we all got to take a look at our dark side sooner or later.
The problem is if you stare at it long enough, it can get hard to tell the two sides apart.
How could you let everyone worry like that?
Because the more pressure I put on him, the more he pulled away. I mean, you saw him, Lana. He wasn't exactly the charming flannel king we all know and love. It was like he was a...
A different person.
Yeah. Let's face it, Lana. Clark has more issues than "Rolling Stone".
We can't accept this.
There's nothing to accept but my gratitude. After the plane went down, I made my way into one of the broken wings. This compass, your wedding present, guided me to safe harbor. The least I can do is help you keep your farm.
We will find a way to pay you back.
I'm not worried about that, Mr. Kent. If it's not too presumptuous, I hope you'll just consider me part of the family.
Look, I know this is gonna sound bizarre, but this kid Van, he's convinced that the meteor rocks in Smallville have altered certain people.
What do you mean by altered?
He thinks they've developed different abilities than the rest of us, and he's hunting them. Lex, he had a hit list. They found it in his cabin, and you're on it.
Clark, the only abilities I have are playing the market and falling for the wrong women.
I wouldn't worry about it, Dad. I'm insured now.
Not yet. There's some difficulty getting you underwritten by Lloyd's of London.
On what grounds?
Your tendency to attract near-death experiences has made you too great a liability.
I would think surviving would count for something.
Clark, I really thought I was going to die.
You've been through worse.
Because you've been there to protect me, but I knew you weren't coming this time, so when Van showed up I guess I was just relieved that there were others like you out there.
He's not like me. You have to see him for what he is. He's a killer. Lana, it's okay to be mad at people who try to hurt you, but it's not fair to take it out on everyone who's been affected by the meteors. It's not their fault. No one asks to be different.
Life would just be so much better for everybody if the meteor shower never happened.
