What's the deal with you and Superman, huh?
What are you talking about?
Come on, you're always getting exclusives with him. Just how exclusive are you two?
[Clark Kent clears his throat nervously]
It's not like that.
Oh it's not, huh? Ah, I guess we'll never know if his pj's have that big red S on them too.
Look, babe, to make it in this town, I had to be better, sharper and louder than any man to get half as much notice. And nothing was handed to me on a silver platter either, unlike your friend Superman!
Some attitude you have there.
Eh, it pays the bills.
[A thunderstorm starts outside]
Hmm. Looks like Mother Nature isn't one of your faithful fans.
She'll come around. Everybody else does.
That's enough, Miss Willis.
Not "Miss Willis" anymore! Meet her replacement: [transforms her hospital gown into an electricity-themed suit] Livewire! Neat, huh? I ionized the air around me. Pretty form-fitting, don't you think?
Boy, this sure brings back the old days. When I was your age we didn't have computers or fax machines or--
Yeah, yeah, and you walked ten miles in your bare feet to work every day.
[Livewire appears on screens]
Hello, Metropolis! The tower of power is back, coming at you at about, oh, a gazillion megahertz. Now, you may have noticed I restored some power to the city. I've done this so that you, my adoring and helpless public, can gaze upon moi, your lovely queen of all media. Actually, I pretty much am the media now, seeing as I've taken complete control, so don't touch that dial, Metropolis. Because if you ever want your phone back, your lights, your talk shows, your home shopping channels and your stupid little lives, then you're gonna have to deal with me!
Typical. Today the airwaves....
Tomorrow the world.
[after being tackled by Superman] At least now we know you hit girls!
