If you don't mind, we are trying to hold a meeting here!
Why don't you hold your breath, instead? Maybe you'll turn blue. On you that'd be an improvement.
Why stop at coffee! A cup of coffee gets the world off to work in the morning, but what keeps the world working?
Diet soda?
Energy! And when they say "Energy" what do they mean? Nuclear? too dangerous. Solar?? Too underdeveloped.
How would you know?
Hey, I know a lot of things!
So I understand from the graffiti I've seen.
"At a special session of the General Assembly, 178 countries voted to censure Superman. With only Columbia abstaining." ROSS That fella's becoming a public menace.
And he use to be such a sweetie pie! What's wrong with him the last two weeks?
I can't see anything.
Turn on the light.
Where's the light switch?
Where do you usually find a light switch?
Come on, will you? We've got to get ready before he gets here.
Gus?
Superman. The boy you left behind.
You! Activate circuits 29 through W7 and start Full Power Coordinates on Exterior Defensive Systems:
In other words, push this red button.
Oh, Superman!
Cut the mush, Lorelei. He's after our skin!
He can have mine. Anytime.
I can't! It's out of control!
But how? Where's it getting the power from ???!
I thought you'd never get here.
Hey, don't expect me to save you. Because I don't do that anymore.
Don't worry. I'm long past saving.
Well, don't let me keep you from anything.
I'm in no rush. So what do you have in mind?
Lots of things...
Tell me.
I'll do more than tell you. I'll show you, back at my place. If you'll just do me one little favor first.
Okay, what is it? You want a ride?
Never. I get airsick. You wouldn't like that.
No, I don't think I would. So... then what can I do for you?
It isn't much, really, you see, there's this little boat. Well, not so little, really. And it's not going where it's supposed to go and...
I don't know you, lady.
But the other night...
That wasn't me. That guy's gone. And you're next Webster.
The picture looks blurry.
The picture's fine. That's the way she looks in real life.
What terrific story?
Kent's been invited to his highschool class reunion.
Whoopee.
Hey, I'd definitely shoot color on that one, Jimmy. It'd be a crime to just use black and white.
Okay, Kent, call your people and tell them the Prodigal Son is coming home. FAVORING CLARK Happy now, he turns to leave the office. SHOT LOSES PERRY but we continue to hear his voice, o.s.
Lois, I've got to hand it to you. You're amazing. Who else could manage to turn a threeweek tropical vacation into a front page story that's going to blow the lid off government corruption in the Caribbean?
I just knew I was onto something when that taxi driver kidnapped me.
Ricky? Where...what...
I'd wash that out with some iodine... Okay, Mercurochrome.
Thank ...you.
Anytime.
Oh. I'm Lana Lang. This is Ricky.
We've already met.
And this is... ...Clark. My friend is around here somewhere, I'll just look for...
I'm sorry, I'm in a real hurry. See you around, pal.
You know, I really wasn't expecting all this.
Well...I guess they did get a little carried away.
He was asleep before his head hit the pillow. Well, this was only the biggest day of his life. I really don't know how to thank you.
You just did, with that great dinner.
There's no rush.
But the bridge...
Hey, Don't I always get there in time? Come on, relax.
It's hard to believe... a great looking girl like you all alone like this. As she glances up at him, she is first flustered, then flattered, then...finally...just realistic:
Listen, are you sure you shouldn't do something about the bridge?
The bridge...? I'd better get going!
Who is she?
Her name's Lorelei Ambrosia. She's Webster's Girl Friday.
Who's the other woman?
That's his sister. Vera Webster.
You're amazing, Olsen. A boring banquet and you bring back 3,000 boring pictures. Then Superman puts out a fire on Third Avenue this morning and you stand there and watch the whole thing and you don't take one picture!!
I didn't have my camera with me.
A photographer eats with his camera, A Photographer sleeps with his camera
All right, Kent. I just hope you know what you're doing. If you really think Smallville is your big chance, go for it.
What about me?
What about you?
A story like this cries out for great human interest pictures. The big dance! The Homecoming Game! Mr. Kent posing next to his old locker!
Why do I have to do this?
You! You're lucky I didn't fire you. I get a chance at exclusive onthespot pictures of the biggest forest fire in history and what does he come back with??? A broken leg and twelve melted rolls of film.
It was hot!
Hey listen, I didn't know your mama was comin' by...
Sister! I'm his sister!
Through the telephone line terminal, that ain't nothin'.
Oh Bubba, think of the possibilities.
What she call you?
You will command the tankers to sail toward a 50mile area in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.
And do what?
I know, by computers.
Will you stop interrupting ?! You will command the pumps to stop pumping.
How you doing down there?
Don't make me talk, please. I got enough problems just hangin' on.
Hey, you're perfectly safe.
I ain't about to argue with you. What's gonna happen to them three? Ross the boss and those ladies?
That's up to the judge, Gus. It's not your problem anymore.
Watch out for them air pockets!
No, we're just going down.
We gonna crash?
I never crash, Gus. That'd be embarrassing.
We back in Metropolis?
No...I just have a little stop to make.
