349
00:18:13,802 --> 00:18:16,845
for a lot of people,
including everyone in Hob's Bay.
350
00:18:16,846 --> 00:18:20,182
He will destroy everything good
you have built there.
351
00:18:20,183 --> 00:18:22,434
You can't want that.
I know Peia wouldn't.
352
00:18:22,435 --> 00:18:23,560
- Don't you bring her
into this.
353
00:18:23,561 --> 00:18:25,020
- Then what about Matteo?
354
00:18:25,021 --> 00:18:26,897
He is coming after my boys.
355
00:18:26,898 --> 00:18:30,985
You think he won't
come after yours?
356
00:18:35,156 --> 00:18:37,866
- What is it you want me
to do exactly?
357
00:18:37,867 --> 00:18:44,373
- You helped send Luthor to
prison for 17 years with a lie.
358
00:18:44,374 --> 00:18:49,295
Help me put him away for good
with the truth.
359
00:18:57,595 --> 00:18:58,887
- It looks the same.
360
00:18:58,888 --> 00:19:00,681
- On the outside, sure.
361
00:19:00,682 --> 00:19:03,475
Inside is a different matter.
362
00:19:03,476 --> 00:19:05,686
I overhauled the interface,
gave it a complete
363
00:19:05,687 --> 00:19:07,813
system upgrade,
added a wireless connection
364
00:19:07,814 --> 00:19:09,898
to the LuthorCorp
satellite array,
365
00:19:09,899 --> 00:19:12,818
and the armor has been
infused with kryptonite.
366
00:19:12,819 --> 00:19:16,405
The closer Superman gets,
the weaker he'll become.
367
00:19:16,406 --> 00:19:18,282
- That it?
368
00:19:18,283 --> 00:19:21,952
- Except the
kryptonite-laced screws.
369
00:19:21,953 --> 00:19:23,912
- Screws?
370
00:19:23,913 --> 00:19:27,416
- To dig into Superman's
chest and explode
371
00:19:27,417 --> 00:19:31,587
that old man's heart of his.
372
00:19:31,588 --> 00:19:33,630
You want to kill
the Man of Steel,
373
00:19:33,631 --> 00:19:36,925
this is how you do it.
374
00:19:36,926 --> 00:19:38,844
You're welcome.
375
00:19:38,845 --> 00:19:42,014
By the way, you never served
in the military, correct?
376
00:19:42,015 --> 00:19:44,266
- No. Why?
377
00:19:44,267 --> 00:19:47,436
- I recovered a
deleted Captain Luthor file
378
00:19:47,437 --> 00:19:49,104
in the suit's registry.
379
00:19:49,105 --> 00:19:51,273
John Irons is such a hack.
380
00:19:51,274 --> 00:19:52,691
- Anything else?
381
00:19:52,692 --> 00:19:55,319
- There is one last thing
you should see.
382
00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,447
The DOD file on
a Project Doomsday?
383
00:19:58,448 --> 00:20:01,033
- Is that some kind of weapon?
384
00:20:01,034 --> 00:20:03,410
- It's definitely a weapon.
385
00:20:03,411 --> 00:20:07,122
But not one of theirs.
[beeping]
386
00:20:07,123 --> 00:20:10,292
One of yours.
387
00:20:10,293 --> 00:20:17,634
♪ ♪
388
00:20:23,222 --> 00:20:26,726
- I wondered where you've been.
389
00:20:28,519 --> 00:20:30,938
- Where is he now?
- Darius Chapel?
390
00:20:30,939 --> 00:20:34,483
What's left of him is in
the bottom of Hob's Bay.
391
00:20:34,484 --> 00:20:36,360
- Is there anyone
with an ax to grind
392
00:20:36,361 --> 00:20:38,445
against Luthor who isn't dead?
393
00:20:38,446 --> 00:20:40,697
- Luthor doesn't
leave loose ends.
394
00:20:40,698 --> 00:20:42,658
- There's got to be someone.
395
00:20:42,659 --> 00:20:44,534
- This is who Luthor is.
396
00:20:44,535 --> 00:20:46,370
I care about my people.
397
00:20:46,371 --> 00:20:48,246
Lex only cares about himself.
398
00:20:48,247 --> 00:20:49,915
It doesn't matter
who you are,
399
00:20:49,916 --> 00:20:53,961
he will use you up and throw you
away, never to be seen again.
400
00:20:53,962 --> 00:20:58,924
- Kind of like what happened
with Cheryl Kimble.
401
00:20:58,925 --> 00:21:01,176
- Hold on.
402
00:21:01,177 --> 00:21:03,512
Luthor killed Cheryl?
403
00:21:03,513 --> 00:21:05,222
- I have reason to
believe so, yeah.
404
00:21:05,223 --> 00:21:06,431
Why?
Did you know her?
405
00:21:06,432 --> 00:21:09,017
- A long time ago.
406
00:21:09,018 --> 00:21:12,646
Cheryl was sharp as a tack,
funny as hell.
407
00:21:12,647 --> 00:21:14,356
Knew how to hold
her whiskey, too.
408
00:21:14,357 --> 00:21:15,941
- What did she do for Luthor?
409
00:21:15,942 --> 00:21:19,361
- Well, she left the service
with all kinds of contacts,
410
00:21:19,362 --> 00:21:21,530
some real heavy hitters.
411
00:21:21,531 --> 00:21:23,782
She introduced them to Luthor
412
00:21:23,783 --> 00:21:26,451
so he could start
building his empire.
413
00:21:26,452 --> 00:21:28,412
- But her contacts
became his contacts--
414
00:21:28,413 --> 00:21:30,038
- And he didn't
need her anymore.
415
00:21:30,039 --> 00:21:31,999
- Until he did.
416
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:34,543
He had her assume an alias,
Gretchen Kelley,
417
00:21:34,544 --> 00:21:38,797
and go on a date
and seduce my dad.
418
00:21:38,798 --> 00:21:43,218
- To do something like that
to someone who loves you,
419
00:21:43,219 --> 00:21:45,887
that's low, even for Luthor.
420
00:21:45,888 --> 00:21:47,639
- Wait a minute.
421
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,641
Cheryl was in love with Luthor?
422
00:21:49,642 --> 00:21:52,269
- They were an item
back in the day.
423
00:21:52,270 --> 00:21:55,230
I think Cheryl got it in her
head she could change him.
424
00:21:55,231 --> 00:21:58,608
I have a feeling that Luthor
might have given her that idea.
425
00:21:58,609 --> 00:22:03,739
- I'm pretty sure that pattern
is repeating itself.
426
00:22:03,740 --> 00:22:09,162
- The thing about a pattern,
it always ends the same.
427
00:22:15,043 --> 00:22:18,754
- Thank you for
your help, Bruno.
428
00:22:18,755 --> 00:22:22,842
I really appreciate it.
429
00:22:24,177 --> 00:22:26,678
- Lois?
430
00:22:26,679 --> 00:22:30,265
I'm glad Superman's back.
431
00:22:30,266 --> 00:22:33,144
Tell him he's still
got work to do.
432
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:50,744
- How long will it take
for the boys' abilities
433
00:22:50,745 --> 00:22:52,746
to become what mine used to be?
434
00:22:52,747 --> 00:22:54,581
- Kal, your sons are not you.
435
00:22:54,582 --> 00:22:55,957
- How long?
436
00:22:55,958 --> 00:22:59,628
- I'm afraid it
will never happen.
437
00:22:59,629 --> 00:23:01,505
- What if we changed
the training?
438
00:23:01,506 --> 00:23:03,799
- It would make no difference.
439
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,801
Their limitations are genetic.
440
00:23:05,802 --> 00:23:10,138
No half-Kryptonian
could be what you were.
441
00:23:10,139 --> 00:23:13,266
- They shouldn't have to be.
442
00:23:13,267 --> 00:23:17,813
I'm their father.
I'm supposed to protect them.
443
00:23:17,814 --> 00:23:21,441
- And you have,
their entire lives.
444
00:23:21,442 --> 00:23:24,402
- But I'm losing my ability to
do it when I need it the most.
445
00:23:24,403 --> 00:23:26,696
- I understand your
frustration, Kal.
446
00:23:26,697 --> 00:23:30,158
It reminds me of your father.
447
00:23:30,159 --> 00:23:32,536
- But he did protect me.
You both did.
448
00:23:32,537 --> 00:23:34,079
You sent me here.
449
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,414
- And it was the hardest
decision we ever made.
450
00:23:36,415 --> 00:23:38,166
When Krypton was dying,
451
00:23:38,167 --> 00:23:40,669
Jor-El and I spent
many restless nights
452
00:23:40,670 --> 00:23:42,754
trying to find a way
to save our planet.
453
00:23:42,755 --> 00:23:45,632
We refused to give up.
454
00:23:45,633 --> 00:23:48,135
But eventually,
we had to accept our fate.
455
00:23:48,136 --> 00:23:50,929
Fighting wasn't going
to keep you safe
456
00:23:50,930 --> 00:23:53,849
from the danger
we were about to face.
457
00:23:53,850 --> 00:23:58,186
The only thing
that could do that
458
00:23:58,187 --> 00:24:02,024
was to send you away.
459
00:24:04,527 --> 00:24:07,028
- I don't like it either.
460
00:24:07,029 --> 00:24:08,947
- No.
Dad gave up on us too quickly.
461
00:24:08,948 --> 00:24:10,699
I would have stayed
there all day.
462
00:24:10,700 --> 00:24:12,033
- What's the point?
463
00:24:12,034 --> 00:24:13,493
He already saw
what he needed to see.
464
00:24:13,494 --> 00:24:15,912
- OK, well,
I actually believe in us.
465
00:24:15,913 --> 00:24:19,291
- Jon, I'm a literal
cautionary tale.
466
00:24:19,292 --> 00:24:22,627
Mom and Dad told me so many
times that I wasn't ready.
467
00:24:22,628 --> 00:24:23,920
And you know what?
They were right.
468
00:24:23,921 --> 00:24:25,463
- Please, don't make
this another one
469
00:24:25,464 --> 00:24:27,048
of your pity parties.
470
00:24:27,049 --> 00:24:29,092
- I'm not.
471
00:24:29,093 --> 00:24:31,428
All I'm saying is that
sometimes Dad is right,
472
00:24:31,429 --> 00:24:35,307
and we have to accept
what we can and can't do.
473
00:24:35,308 --> 00:24:37,684
- OK, fine.
474
00:24:37,685 --> 00:24:40,937
Maybe we can't beat
Luthor's suit yet.
475
00:24:40,938 --> 00:24:44,107
But do you think Dad can?
476
00:24:44,108 --> 00:24:45,942
- I don't know.
477
00:24:45,943 --> 00:24:48,069
Maybe.
- You heard him.
478
00:24:48,070 --> 00:24:52,199
Dad said the suit almost killed
him when he was at his best.
479
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,412
Now that he's not,
how can he beat it?
480
00:24:58,706 --> 00:25:01,458
How can anyone?
481
00:25:01,459 --> 00:25:03,919
- That was a real risk
you took, Ms. Lane.
482
00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,963
- It was the only way to save
the people that I love.
483
00:25:06,964 --> 00:25:09,090
- That monster
killed your father.
484
00:25:09,091 --> 00:25:12,010
What made you even think
to approach it?
485
00:25:12,011 --> 00:25:13,929
- That night when
it killed my dad,
486
00:25:13,930 --> 00:25:17,140
it looked right at me,
almost like it knew me.
487
00:25:17,141 --> 00:25:20,769
And it wasn't until later that
I realized, in a way, it does.
488
00:25:20,770 --> 00:25:23,104
- What do you mean?
489
00:25:23,105 --> 00:25:26,816
- The person that monster
once was cared for me,
490
00:25:26,817 --> 00:25:30,445
or another version of me
in the other world.
491
00:25:30,446 --> 00:25:33,531
- You mean the world from
the Ally Allston incident?
492
00:25:33,532 --> 00:25:37,118
- That's where he came from,
through a breach in the mines.
493
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:38,787
[button clacks]
494
00:25:38,788 --> 00:25:40,789
- I know where it is.
- Great.
495
00:25:40,790 --> 00:25:44,459
We can make sure
never to go there.
496
00:25:44,460 --> 00:25:45,961
- Is the suit ready?
497
00:25:45,962 --> 00:25:48,630
- I just need a few hours
to finish arming it.
498
00:25:48,631 --> 00:25:50,799
- Send it to me
when you're done.
499
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:53,218
I'm headed to Smallville.
500
00:25:53,219 --> 00:25:55,220
- Smallville?
501
00:25:55,221 --> 00:25:56,846
Why would you want
to go back there?
502
00:25:56,847 --> 00:25:59,892
- To visit an old friend.
503
00:26:04,855 --> 00:26:06,439
- Never thought you'd be able
to get Luthor back on track.
504
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:07,732
- Prison took its toll,
505
00:26:07,733 --> 00:26:11,278
but we're finally
putting that behind us.
506
00:26:11,279 --> 00:26:12,821
- Luthor doesn't put
anything behind him.
507
00:26:12,822 --> 00:26:14,739
But you should
know that by now.
508
00:26:14,740 --> 00:26:18,785
- Tell the board
I'll be right up.
509
00:26:18,786 --> 00:26:21,037
If you're here
about the lawsuit--
510
00:26:21,038 --> 00:26:24,165
- I'm here to warn you
that you're in danger.
511
00:26:24,166 --> 00:26:26,209
- Wow, you really
are desperate.
512
00:26:26,210 --> 00:26:30,672
- How much do you know
about Cheryl Kimble?
513
00:26:30,673 --> 00:26:33,133
Did you know that
she was the old you?
514
00:26:33,134 --> 00:26:35,719
- I think you're giving
Cheryl way too much credit.
515
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,429
- Maybe.
516
00:26:37,430 --> 00:26:40,807
But did you know that
Lex was in love with her?
517
00:26:40,808 --> 00:26:43,810
Or at least Cheryl thought so
before she realized Lex was
518
00:26:43,811 --> 00:26:46,688
incapable of loving anyone.
519
00:26:46,689 --> 00:26:47,981
- That was a long time ago.
520
00:26:47,982 --> 00:26:49,899
