A night on the town instead of under it? |
Baby I'm going to take you higher. |
I don't understand. |
Yours not to reason why, Miss Teschmacher. Relax! Enjoy it! Just look at that smog! |
This all has something to do with Superman, doesn't it? |
Your volcano chum? Your junior lifesaving buddy? Let's get high. |
I didn't bring any |
Oh. Why? does he live up here? |
Not exactly. But it's his kind of neighborhood. |
What are you going to do to him? |
Nothing, nothing. I just want to invite him to tea. |
Tea? |
You got wax in your ears? |
What if he doesn't show up? What if he's taking a nap? |
He always shows up when somebody's in danger. |
Danger?? Somebody??? Lex where are you going? |
Lex is going byebye. |
Where's mine?! Where's my parachute? |
Miss Teschmacher, Superman is a fairly bright individual. My understanding of the way he works is that he won't be fooled by a simple trick. |
Good. Fine. Now where's my parachute? |
I'm wearing it. |
I mean the other one! |
What other one? |
You can't do this to me! |
Of course I can. I love you. |
Listen...thank you. |
You too. I just...I can't get it on for good guys. Y'know? |
You! The girl from the volcano! Kryptonite... |
Help! I mean I can't stop saying it. Silly, isn't it There's nothing to worry about. Help! See. |
What are you doing here? |
Screaming |
Besides that. |
He wants to see you. Lex Luthor. |
The bald man! The one who tried to kill me? |
The way you describe him doesn't really do him justice. |
I'd better get you down. |
Couldn't we forget the plane? You could lift me in your big strong arms? |
Sure, and let the plane crash in the middle of the city. |
Oh. |
Look, lady, you saved my life once. I owe you a favor. But I can't understand why you follow a man like that. |
What can I tell you? He's my leader. |
Okay. Take me to your leader. |
I'd like to. |
Well! |
I'll bet you have some good ideas. |
Hey, you're getting a better class of people in your office these days, Boss. |
Your bookie? |
No. |
I know. He sends a check every week to his dear grayhaired old mother. |
Actually, she's silverhaired. |
Not...gray. |
Not really, no. |
Are there any more at home like you? |
Not really, no. |
Well, how are you enjoying your first day on the job? |
I think I lost a week's salary at the dart board. |
Some people aren't the athletic type. |
But otherwise it's swell. |
'Swell.' When was the last time I heard anybody say where are you from , anyway? |
See? Didn't I tell you this was a tough town? |
Unbelievable. |
Not in Metropolis it isn't. This is the home of the sneak attack, the stab in the back, the |
Hey! |
What the ! |
Stop him, Clark! |
He may have a gun! |
Oh, for God's sake! |
It isn't worth getting a heart attack over, Lois. |
You're great with the advice, Clark. Maybe you'd better take over the lovelorn column. |
Supposing that man had hurt you? Is it worth risking your life over ten dollars, two credit cards, and a lipstick? I mean, it's not as if |
Know what? |
You described the exact contents of my purse. |
I just took a shot at it. |
What now, my love? |
Huh? |
Big night coming up? |
Oh, not really. I guess I'll just watch a little TV and unless...would you be interested in dinner? |
Thanks, Clark, but I'm booked for the night. |
Oh. |
It's not what you think. Darn it. I'm going out on a story. The Secretary of Defense is landing at the airport tonight and this kid's going to be there to make sure he answers a few questions he'd rather duck. |
Don't you ever give up? |
For what? Oh, I've see the way the other half lives. My sister, for instance. it looks terrific, but is that what I really want? Three kids, two cats, and fifteen needlepoint pillows? I'd go bananas after one week. Hell, I need this crazy existence of mine. Like I need the plague, right? That's what your thinking. |
No. I'm just thinking that you smoke too much, if you don't mind my saying so. |
There's no real proof that tobacco |
Lois, you should see what the inside of your lungs look like. |
Can I take you to the airport? |
Not unless you can fly. |
Come again? |
I'm telling you, I was there. |
You were probably so scared you didn't look to see what the trick was. |
It wasn't a trick! |
Oh sure. A man flies in the sky like a pigeon and it wasn't a trick. |
Clark Kent, if you had only seen it the way I did, you |
It was done with wires. They must have rigged him like they do with Peter Pan. |
There weren't any wires. I looked. |
Mirrors, then. It's done with mirrors. |
He grabbed me! He held me! He set me down gently! How could that be done with mirrors? |
Look, there was probably a trampoline on the roof somewhere and this joker just took a big bounce. |
Why would he do that? How would he know I was going to suddenly slip. |
I don't know, Lois, but I do know a fraud when I hear one. This thing goes against all natural laws. |
