S1 E15Unfinished Business

BBaern

So this is Jor-El's famed Fortress of knowledge. I thought it'd be bigger.

It doesn't matter. You won't be staying long.

BBaern

Big talk, big man. I'm surprised you're still standing. I guess Jor-El was right about how the yellow sun affects you Kryptonian cockroaches. But I'm back. And now, I'm supersized. This is the perfect place for the fall of the House of El. Paying for the sins of your father can be a bitch.

Mom, I know how much you love me and how much dad... but I've always felt different. Because I am. And Raya was the first person I ever met who could really understand that. And I don't think I ever really thought about what I'd lost... a family, a whole race of people who were just like me. For the first time, I'm ready to stop running from who I really am... from my destiny.

You're looking awfully healthy.

It's called exercise, Clark. It's something we mere mortals have to do from time to time.

According to the Daily Planet, the Green Arrow was shot last night.

If I was shot, don't you think I'd be laying in a hospital or a morgue? I'm not bulletproof like you are, Clark.

Apparently, you were too busy using your powers to bale hay than to realize there's a crime wave in Metropolis. Let me ask you a question. Are you ever gonna get off your ass and finally do something for a change?

I didn't come here to be insulted.

Well you know what? There's the door. I don't remember you being invited.

Oliver, what's going on with you?

Clark, I don't need to take advice from someone whose only worry in life is to protect his own identity.

Oliver, you're not a killer!

No, but he is, Clark. You and I both know the world's a better place without Lex Luthor.

That's not for us to decide.

What made you come to your senses?

Actually, you did. This whole time, I just wanted to be like Clark Kent, you know? I wanted to... I wanted to have the ability to bring justice to the world without having to worry about getting killed in the process. And then something occurred to me, and I realized that Clark Kent would never take another man's life. I came within an inch of doing just that. I'm not even in your league.

Oliver, you do a lot of good in this world. You don't need to be indestructible to be a hero.

[to Clark] Look, I understand that you feel like all these psychopathic space invaders are your fault, but you can't keep it all inside. You feel the need to carry the world on your shoulders, and that's noble. But there are other people out there who want to help you fight the good fight, and you need to let them in. Because sometimes even heroes need to be saved.

I thought I told you you're no longer a welcome guest at the mansion.

Trust me, Lex, I don't want to be here either. But after what you've done...

And exactly what did I do? Did I swat a fly with too much force?

Come on, Clark, you put a psycho killer away and you reunited a mother with her son. I mean, there are only so many hours in the day.

Well, see, that's the thing. No matter how many people I save, I can't solve the world's problems.

I don't know anyone else who does more for this world than you.

You realize the only reason Lex is doing this is to wash his hands of it.

Lex had no idea what was going on on that farm.

Lana, you don't believe that.

Unlike some people I know, Lex doesn't lie to me.

Or he just wants his name clear of murder and slavery, so he sends a messenger to do his cleanup work.

I don't get it. Of all the photographers in Metropolis, how is it that you end up with the first shots of our merry archer?

My connections.

No. Really.

Uh, well, the guy doesn't get out of the Suicide Slums much, so I just hung out there for a few weeks... in my car with my pepper spray and the doors locked.

This is it? A bunch of arms and legs? Nice work, hotshot. I mean, you didn't even manage to catch one shot of his face. All these tell me about Green Arrow is that he needs a band-aid.

Preliminary investigation is calling it suicide, but how's a guy who's larger than life drown in two feet of water?

Well, his career was over. And Lake was right; the coroner's report says that Dawson was juiced up on muscle mixers.

Chloe, come on, you're going to tell me that someone on a 'roid rage is going to lie down in a koi pond and call it a day?

(sees the picture of Lois' kiss with Green Arrow) Oh, I feel dirty...

Think about how Oliver feels. Lois and Clark put this whole scheme together because they thought Oliver was Green Arrow, but then-- pow!-- the poor sucker catches her sucking lip with leather daddy.
