Previously in Smallville...

if you run, every reporter in kansas
will be digging into our lives.

what if somebody finds
out about clark's secret ?

don't worry. nothing's
gonna change between us.

i miss your sage advice, martha.

there's always a job waiting for you if
you ever want to come back to luthorcorp.

so you want to back me for senate

running against your son.
why would you want to do that ?

do whatever it takes to knock
jonathan kent out of the race.

i want to be senator.

he is just like the rest of us.

a normal person doesn't
rise from the dead.

rectification does not
come without a price.

the life of someone close to
you will be exchanged for yours.

and now future senator
of the state of kansas

mr. jonathan kent !

thank you.

thank you. really, thank you.

thank you all very much for
coming out here this evening.

i'm quite sure that many of you had
more important things to do tonight than

come out and listen to some farmer talk
about the importance of corn subsidies.

um...

when i told my family that i had

indeed decided to run against lex luthor,
they were surprised, to say the least.

i don't think they really understood...

why i wanted to run

or why this is so very important to me.

but the truth is actually
... it's actually very simple.

the courage to help all
kansans, whether they're rich...

or whether they're poor,

and do my very best to put the heart

back in the heartland.

thank you.

"Fanatic"

mr. luthor, this is your
itinerary for tomorrow.

push the mayor lunch and get
me a photo op at the hospital.

Yes, sir.

the nurses union is key in the 49th.

one more thing,

i need the new poll
numbers from last night.

Yes, sir.

central kansas students for
lex luthor, sir. you have...

five minutes tops.

thucydides said,

"we are either kings among men...

or the pawns of kings."

the fact that you're here demonstrates
that you strive for the former.

the youth vote is stronger
than we ever expected,

and i have you to thank for that.

but we cannot afford to be complacent.

great leaders are forged from those
who see beyond the boundaries...

who go beyond the extra mile.

they go the extra 10.

defeat is not an option.

samantha drake... president
of students for lex luthor.

well, then, i should thank you
personally for my spike in the mtv vote.

such an honor to finally meet you.

i know this is kind of geeky, but i'd be so
psyched if i could get my picture taken with you.

well, anything i can do to
keep up morale with the troops.

Oh...

excuse me. Thank you.

could you get the
picture in the background ?

that's the one your father gave you after
you closed the metrotech deal, isn't it ?

well, it looks like you've
done your homework, miss drake.

thank you very much.

i used to wear a cross.

sir ?

the limo is waiting.

thank you very much.

this is lex.

you wanted a grenade to throw in
the kent camp ? i got an atomic bomb.

this isn't a secure line.

just meet me at rampart and broadway.

atomic warfare ?

a little overdramatic for
local politics, isn't it ?

i got no problems ending
this conversation right now.

i believe, in the
political weapons trade,

the deal usually goes
to the highest bidder.

thank you.

is this for real ?

oh,

sosnick had it all
trucked up from metropolis.

i keep expecting some mobster with a carnation
to step out of the shadows and plug me.

wow.

you have to admit, it's not exactly us.

dad, are you sure this
guy knows what he's doing ?

clark, sosnick helped jack
win five elections. i'm sure he

knows more about this stuff than we do.

if you ask me, i think he's
trying to turn you into a luthor.

is there a problem ?

yeah, i was just wondering if
you've ever actually met the kents.

the reason somebody is gonna vote for
mr. kent is because they relate to him,

and who is gonna believe
that he supports local farmers

when he looks like some big business
blowhard... no offense, mr. kent...

who wants to buy them out ?

well, that's called
bridging the demo gap, dear.

oh, and does bridging that gap also
include misquoting your candidate ?

wait a minute.

it says, "jonathan kent is quoted as saying,
'it is possible to serve corporate interest

and maintain the public
welfare.'" i never said that.

i did.

you did ?

look, this whole john boy thing... don't
get me wrong. you're very good at it.

it may win over the cowpokes, but there's a pool
of voters that are more familiar with vente lattes

than they are with digging postholes.

what i really need here is somebody who

cares about what i believe in more
than they care about winning a race.

i'm sorry, but you got to
go, sosnick. you're fired.

pack it up, guys.

not that that didn't
totally rock, mr. kent,

but i have no idea how you're
gonna find a replacement so quickly.

i do.

oh, me ?

um,

what do i know about
being a campaign manager ?

what do i know about
being a state senator ?

right.

i'll get it.

jonathan kent.

this is your last warning
to drop out of the campaign.

i told you not to call here again.

hey ! what are you doing ?

sorry, but cku regulations
dictate that all campaign

materials can be no larger than 20x24.

okay, miss overachiever, i think you're taking
this campus-gestapo thing way too seriously.

the state's future
depends on it, miss lane.

how do you know my name ?

lex says "always know your enemy."

leave it to lex to treat this
election like a hostile takeover,

which is what he's gonna do to
the entire state, by the way.

progress requires sacrifices.

mr. kent is neck and neck with your
fascist environmental annihilator.

you heard what lex said. true
leaders see beyond boundaries.

he set the bar. now we
need to raise it higher.

defeat is not an option.

coming.

- hi.
- hi.

looks like someone's had
a long day of campaigning.

more like a long day of lois.

well, as much as i'd like to make
a fool of myself at the ice rink,

we could always stay in tonight.

okay.

ow !

what happened ? did i hurt you ?

unless you're the one who assigned
six diagrams on planetary rotations.

you know, on second
thought, maybe we should go.

okay, this couldn't be more awkward...

but we haven't been together
since i came to met u.

you mean, we haven't...

had...

sex.

clark, you can't tell me
that you haven't noticed.

things between us haven't been the same since
you miraculously came back from the dead.

i know. lana, i can't
explain that anymore.

it changed me.

maybe i'll never understand
what you went through.

but you're still the
same person, aren't you ?

clark,

i don't know. It's just...

it feels like you're
afraid to touch me anymore.

did something happen ?

clark ?

okay, is this where i have to remind you

that you're the one who said that we
wouldn't keep things from each other anymore ?

why is this about me ?

you're the one who pulled away first. you moved
to metropolis two weeks after we got together.

and now you spend every
moment with these books.

why astronomy ?

it's homework.

it's an obsession.

and that thing about honesty
... it works both ways.

nice deflection.

but i don't fall for that anymore.

i got to go get some air.

now, just who in the hell are you ?

Are you the one
who's been calling me ?

hey !

Are you the one who's been calling me ?
You stay away of me and my family.

it's obviously true what they say.

behind every great man is a great woman.

the campaign must be taking
up a lot of your time.

yes, it is, but fortunately
jonathan and i have a lot of help.

unfortunately, not enough to win.

you know, lex is entering the last stretch
of the campaign with infinite resources,

and i believe you are
down financially to...

nothing.

i'm glad to see you're
finally behind your son,

but i thought you knew me
better than that, lionel.

i would never give up on my husband.

you misunderstand me.

lex has deep pockets,

and jonathan needs at least

the money to match that.

this is more than money to match.

we've run this campaign
on his beliefs, and

that's what's gonna win him the election.
jonathan would never accept this.

i know. i fully expected jonathan to
barrel his way through the campaign

fueled by blind idealism, but

i was hoping you'd be more savvy.

perhaps you have your own personal
reasons for wanting jonathan

not to win.

i know you didn't come by this late at
night to drop off this press release.

what happened ?

how far do you want to cross
this friendship boundary ?

since when did we have boundaries ?

all right,

why don't you just
leave out the details ?

well...

everything was fine between
lana and i when i was human.

i mean, it was great.

okay, clark.

but now that i have my
abilities back, it's like our...

sex...life...

has been on hiatus.

oh.

uhh...

i know i'm gonna regret asking
this question, but, um...

why ?

'cause it just takes some time for
me to adjust my abilities to new...

situations.

wow, uh...

awkward factor eight. [

um...

so, basically, what
you're saying is that

you're afraid that, in the
heat of the moment, you might...

please don't make me
finish this sentence, clark.

well, see,

that's the thing. i'm not
sure what would happen.

i mean, if i couldn't
control myself...

you know what ? that's something
that can never be unseen.

it's not funny.

no, you're right. it's
not. it's just that

this conversation definitely
cements me as your krypto-hag.

look, clark...

you can shake my hand
without crushing it, right ?

and you don't exactly incinerate everyone
you look at with your heat-vision thing.

so it's pretty much
the same thing, right ?

i mean...

metaphorically.

but you didn't need me to tell
you all this, so what gives ?

i think i got used to lying
to lana when we were friends.

now it's different.

yeah,

you know, clark, i'm
playing my best zone defense,

but i think you're in denial
territory about what lana knows.

i mean, she's studying astronomy.

the meteors, the fact that the
undead topic comes up daily.

well, i can't just tell
her. it's too risky.

okay, fine, clark. then don't tell her about it,
but your game needs to switch from defense to offense

because, sooner or later, lana's gonna start
asking all the wrong people all the right questions.

mom, you didn't say much on the ride home.
are you sure everything's okay ?

yeah, i'm fine. i'll just be
glad when the election is over.

shelby, hi !

what's the matter ?

what's wrong ?

Keep out while you can.

i moved the rally to next
week so mr. kent can recover.

or not.

dad, what are you doing ?

i can't let them stop me.

i will tell them the rally's a go again.

i thought the doctor said he
was going to keep you overnight.

oh, then they'd have
exactly what they want.

something tells me this is not
the first time they've called.

jonathan,

how could you keep this from us ?

we're in this as a family.

are we ?

you've never been happy about me running,
and now i'm guessing you want me to quit.

maybe you're willing to
risk your life over this,

but i don't think i'm
willing to stand by and watch.

i have got to see this
thing through, martha.

"do as i say, not as i do." huh, dad ?

look, i never taught you to buckle under
pressure, especially not from lex luthor.

lex ?

you think he'd go this far ?

there's no limit to what
lex luthor would do, son.

clark.

i heard what happened. i just wanted
to make sure your father's okay.

this is as close to my father
as you want to get right now.

he thinks i was behind it, doesn't he ?

what do you expect him to believe ?

maybe the truth. i issued a press
release denouncing the attack

and offered a reward for any information leading to
the assailants' capture. i need you to believe me.

lex, why is some state senate
seat so important to you ?

it's a stepping stone.

to what ?

that's like apollo asking
icarus why he's building wings.

look, clark, you have everything you've ever
wanted. i'm sorry if i'm still searching.

what if you don't win ?

what if you realize you haven't
found what you're looking for ?

well, there's always the white house.

look, i promise you, we're gonna
find out who did this to your dad.

didn't work.

we failed him.

well, now we know what we need to do,

and i already have everything in place.

samantha, chill out.

we already went too far,
and it totally backfired.

we need to turn ourselves in

before somebody points a finger at lex.

lex asked us to go the extra 10 miles.

i'm the only one willing to do that.

what are you talking about ?

there is one thing that
kent can't bounce back from.

i'm going to the cops before
this gets more out of control.

lex

would have never...

given up that easily.

i waited at the drop-off,
but griff never showed.

find out what happened to him.

i didn't recognize you for a moment.

i wanted to show you
how devoted i am to you.

well, you certainly have.

i have all the enabling
devices i need, thank you.

though apparently i
could use better security.

don't they always say never use
your birthday as your security code ?

or, more specifically...

your brother's ?

interesting choice of perfume.

hermes.

it's your favorite.

i know everything
about you, mr. senator.

enator, huh ?

now, aren't you a
little ahead of yourself ?

not now. not with jonathan
kent out of the picture.

i would never condone
what happened to mr. kent.

of course not.

you've got to distance yourself.

it's like you said in
the herald article...

"strike when you can but never
leave yourself vulnerable."

please tell me you weren't
responsible for that attack.

it's okay, lex.

i know what you want me to do,

and i would never want you
to take the fall for it.

you may have read everything about
me, but don't assume you know me.

i would never hurt the kents.

you're losing your edge, lex.

and you've clearly gone over it.

my security will escort
you to the police station.

you were just having
a moment of weakness.

that's why you need me.

lex luthor going godfather on your dad ?
i don't know, clark.

lex seems like the kind of guy who lives
for the fight as much as the victory.

here's a list of all the calls
logged on our phone today.

my dad pawned that one off as a
wrong number. it's blocked, but...

i'll let my fingers do the
walking. just give me a second.

you know, it's not like your dad to
keep something like this a secret.

he's kind of turned into a different person lately,
like he's got something to prove to everyone.

maybe just his son.

what does running for
senator have to do with me ?

think about it, clark.

it must be kind of hard being a role model for
a guy who pulls people out of a burning building

and stops nuclear missiles
all between chores and dinner.

no one's expecting him to do that.

true, but it's not gonna
stop him from trying.

oh, here we go. let's see what we got.

great.

the call was made from...

the "students for lex
luthor" office at cku.

"to do my part to put the
heart back in the heartland."

great closing line, mr. kent.

they're martha's words, not mine. i just

hope she shows up in
time to hear me say them.

are you sure you want to do this ?

i know that we have extra security and
everything, but it's not too late to postpone.

lois, what kind of a leader would i be if i
let some pranksters make me back down, hmm ?

and now future senator...

- jacket ?
- oh, yeah.

You look wonderfull

knock them dead, boss.

thank you.

thank you. really, thank you.

excuse me ?

hey.

when i told my family that i had

indeed decided to run against lex luthor,
they were surprised, to say the least.

but their support has
been inspirational to me.

see, i've been inspired. i've been inspired
by my son whose courage seems to know...

talk about an initiation gone wrong.

get up. those basic-training
skills are looking a little rusty.

like i said...

know your enemy.

look, magna-cum-laude
psycho...

you are not gonna shoot jonathan kent.

you're right.

you are.

in fact, it is

because of my family that i
have the courage to run at all.

i don't think they really understood...

why i wanted to run

or why this is so very important to me.

but the truth is actually...
it's actually very simple.

the courage to help all
kansans, whether they're rich...

nobody will ever believe i
would shoot jonathan kent.

really ?

beautiful girl comes
to live under his roof.

wife gets a little too
busy at that coffee shop.

suddenly, he fires a
seasoned political consultant

and takes the girl
on the campaign trail.

until it all goes wrong,

and the spurned lover gets her revenge.

now just aim at
jonathan's head and shoot.

didn't general lane teach you anything ?

actually,

he did.

get down, sir.

martha ?

lois.

don't sweat it, smallville.
better late than never.

"regard your soldiers as your children, "and
they will follow you into the deepest valleys.

"look on them as your
own beloved sons...

- ... and they will stand by you even unto death."
- ... and they will stand by you even unto death."

you really don't have to quote
"the art of war" to me, dad.

i read it cover to cover three
times before i finished high school.

although...

i still would have preferred
a bike for my 14th birthday.

yes, well, despite your intense studies,

it seems jonathan kent, after yesterday's
theatrics, has surged ahead of you in the polls.

i didn't have anything to do with that.

no, no, of course, you didn't.

but it looks as though your disciples
tried to follow in your footsteps.

they have succeeded in
creating quite a mess.

how does it feel, lex...

to have people worship you ?

being the idol for a cult of psychopaths
isn't exactly a power trip, dad ?

oh, but i suppose being
a state senator would be.

isn't that why you're
running for office ?

you want to know the truth ?

i'm running because it's something
i actually have to work for.

yes.

and your noble efforts
include employing hired guns

to dig up information about the
kents that could destroy them.

well, so much for your fatherly pride
and support in this campaign, huh, dad ?

griff's dead.

his body turned up in the back
alley of suicide slums this morning,

and somehow i don't
think the kents did it.

dangerous neighborhood, lex.

would it have killed you this one
time to actually be on my side ?

you're slipping, son.

first, professor milton fine vanishes
from your radar. now griff. it...

it might be time to dust this off.

- all the teachers will be there ?
- yes.

all right, great.

and here are the talking
points for the teachers union.

- okay.
- and don't forget...

i know. i've got the firefighters' breakfast in the
morning. don't worry, lois. i'm not gonna forget.

mmm, firefighters. i think i might tag along for
that one. there's got to be a few perks to this job.

good news. hmm ?

you're up 10 points in the
polls after the rally yesterday.

wow ! it looks like we could
win this thing after all, huh ?

i got to run. bye.

bye.

it's great to see him so optimistic.

yeah.

i hate to be the one
to burst his bubble.

what do you mean ?

lex is running 800 ads and dropping
three mailers in the next two weeks.

we may be ahead now, but that much coverage will
make mr. kent a distant memory by election day. and...

as far as i can tell...

we're out of money.

i've been trying to figure out how
to tell him for a couple of days.

well, if we don't find some major green, he can
kiss that fancy leather chair at the capitol goodbye.

there is one other option.

but you have to promise
me never to tell jonathan.

lana.

i wasn't expecting to see you here.

i wasn't about to leave
things the way they were.

- look, clark.
- lana, i...

you were right.

i was pulling away.

it's because i've been wanting
to be with you for so long...

but i feel like i'd just screw it up.

clark, i would never
let you go that easily.

maybe we just need to slow down and
try and get back to where we were.

i freak out.

i screw up, and i blame everything
on you, and you forgive me...

no questions asked.

maybe that's because
it's not all your fault.

what you said about me
running off to met u. and

getting all caught
up in my homework...

it's not entirely false.

clark, i've been studying
the meteor showers.

you said you were gonna
leave that in the past.

i know i did, and i tried to.

but those meteors changed my life,
and now with the second shower...

clark, there is no way
that they're random.

what are you saying ?

okay, well, you know that spacecraft
that i saw during this last shower ?

i was looking into the satellite
imagery from the first shower,

the one that happened when we were kids,

and there's something that doesn't
crash the way the other meteors do.

it, um...

well, it kind of lands.

clark, what if a ship came down
in the first meteor shower as well,

and whoever was in it

has been here with us this entire time ?

thank you for coming.

it's my pleasure.

I'm always here for you, Martha.
