All language subtitles for 094 - Aos

Superman.

Faster than a speeding bullet.

More powerful than a locomotive.

Able to leap tall buildings at a single
bound.

Look, up in the sky. It's a bird. It's a
plane.

It's Superman.

Yes, it's Superman.

Strange visitor from another planet who
came to Earth with powers and abilities

far beyond those of mortal men.

Superman. who can change the course of
mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare

hands, and who, disguised as Clark Kent,
mild-mannered reporter for a great

metropolitan newspaper, fights a
never-ending battle for truth, justice,

and the American way.

I have just come from the presidential
palace.

His Excellency is in conference with the
newspaper people from the United States.

Unfortunately, I left my briefcase in
His Excellency's office.

There was nothing of value in it, I
trust?

Only a clock set to go off at 12 o'clock
sharp and a small quantity of high

explosives.

Senor White?

You do us honor with your plan to
publish a Latin American edition of the

Daily Planet here. I can assure you of
my complete cooperation.

Well, I'm counting on that, Mr.
President.

As I was just saying to Miss Lane and
Mr. Kent, your government is a model of

progress and integrity.

You are kind to say so.

Actually, our prosperity comes from the
mines my country owns. The land is rich

in metals.

And you use the money for the good of
the people.

Gracias.

Unfortunately, there are certain
unscrupulous politicians who would like

to put me out of office.

Then they would take over the mines and
steal the profits for themselves.

In a very few moments, Your Excellency.

Yes.

We must leave at once for the
presidential palace.

Now, from this district, we get gold.

And down here, we mine.

Silver, lead, and copper.

You see, we have every type of metal.
Excuse me, Your Excellency. Chief, I

hate to break in like this, but we have
an appointment to see the building.

The one you're going to buy for the new
plant.

We have all day to see that building,
Kent. What's the hurry? What's the

matter with you? We have to leave at
once, sir. I'm sorry. Would you care to

come along, Mr. President?

No, thank you. I must remain and sign a
few documents.

We'll see you later. Come on, Chief.
Please.

Clark, of all the outrageous high-handed
ways... Clark, I demand an explanation

of your conduct. I'm sorry, but we've
got to see that Billy.

I've got my hat. You go ahead. I'll join
you later.

Brace yourself.

You should blow up in a second now.

Superman. Look, President Patillo's
office. He must be dead.

Gracias. Por nada.

Señor Presidente, you're still alive.

Yes. Thanks to Superman.

He is more concerned over my welfare
than certain of my own countrymen. We

are thankful that your life has been
spared.

But as for Superman...

Arrest him.

Arrest Superman?

He's the one who saved me. Perhaps it
only looked that way.

Maybe it was he who brought the bomb
into your office.

Well, but that's for the courts to
decide. Arrest him.

Stop this nonsense!

I forbid it!

Permit me to remind you, when an attempt
is made on the life of our president,

anyone with him must be arrested on
suspicion. It is the law. And according

to our constitution, if you break the
law...

You can be removed from office.

And just who would take his place?

As vice president, I would.

I submit to arrest.

If his enemies try again to assassinate
him, they may succeed.

You must break out of here.

No, no, no, no.

If I did that, he'd be impeached
tomorrow. That would be a disaster for

the entire country.

However, there is one thing you can do
for me.

There's an old friend of mine back home.
His name is Professor Lucerne.

He's been of tremendous importance to me
and that is a very grave, grave

consequence. However, I want you to call
him or other cable him and tell him to

fly down here at once.

We'll do it right away. Come along,
Lois.

Ah, Professor Lucerne, do come in.

Nice that you could come.

Seemed urgent.

If it was, won't you sit down, please?

As soon as I got Mr. White's cable,
Graham.

I caught the first plane south.

I just arrived.

Imagine you in prison.

Did Mr. White explain the circumstances?

He and Miss Lane met me at the airport
and told me everything.

I see. Then you know my problem.

As I see it, you were obligated to stay
in prison to save the president's job,

and yet you must break out to protect
his life.

And to catch and punish his enemies.

But how can I be at two places at once?
Unfortunately, I wasn't born twins.

Unfortunately not.

But do you remember a discussion we once
had about molecular density?

Oh, yes.

All matter is composed of molecules, and
all molecules are composed of atoms.

Correct. That applies to solids,
liquids, gases, everything.

The atomic and molecular structure of
any substance determines its strength

and weight.

Yes, including your own.

I understand.

You are made up.

Both molecules and atoms.

Everybody is.

Yours happen to have greater density.
They're packed more closely together,

giving you your super strength and
making it impossible for you to be

injured or hurt.

I see.

Now, let me understand this.

If I can expand my atomic structure by

driving the molecules farther apart,
then...

Separate them. There might be two of you
instead of one.

Of course, if it is possible, it would
require an extraordinary concentration

of willpower.

Naturally.

But with a person of your great ability,
I think it might work.

Theoretically, at least.

Thank you, Professor. I think you've
solved our problem. At least I'm going

to try it. I must warn you, the
experiment may be dangerous.

If you do separate into two...

then each of you will be only half as
strong and only half as powerful.

You could be wounded by bullets.

You could be hurt by your enemies.

Even flying through the air might be
difficult or impossible.

Well, that's just a risk I'll have to
take, sir.

And there's one other danger.

Sometimes a theory may work one way, but
not in reverse.

If you do separate into two...

It may be impossible for you to fuse
yourself together again into one single

Superman.

If this happens, both of you might
perish.

Well, Professor, I'll worry about that
when the time comes.

From the bottom of my heart, I wish you
luck.

Thank you, Professor, and bless you.

Guard! Guard!

Ready to leave now.

Don't you have any idea at all who's
behind all this?

I have a strong suspicion it is Vice
Presidente Obreon who would like to take

over.

He and Felipe Gonzalez, one of my
cabinet members, are like that.

And they are both ambitious men.

Ambitious and greedy for money.

But there must be some way to stop them.
There is.

In a day or two, I shall dissolve my
government and ask for a new election.

That will put Senor O'Brien out of
office.

But it will put you out too.

Yes.

But it will also let me campaign for the
truth.

The voters can decide whether to
re-elect me for honest government or

replace me with a scoundrel like
O'Brien.

I'm sure he will be defeated.

And I'm sure you're right.

And you can count on the Daily Planet
for support up to the hilt.

Gracias, Senor White.

Los, I think we better be getting back
to the hotel.

And, Senor, don't forget you're going to
take us on a tour of the mines tomorrow.

It will be a pleasure.

Thank you, and good night.

Buenas noches.

Hasta mañana, entonces.

Good night. Good night.

I've been thinking, Chief.

Hasn't it struck you as odd that we
haven't seen Heidner hair Clark Kent

since Superman was put in jail?

What are you getting at?

Well, I was just wondering.

Wouldn't it be funny if Clark turned out
to be Superman?

Come

in.

Hi, Chief.

Hello.

I suppose you've been wandering the
streets all day, dazed by the bomb.

Well, I was a little close to it when it
exploded.

Well, you better take it easy for a day
or two, Kent. Oh, by all means, rest

your little shattered nerves.

Meanwhile, I have newspaper work to do.

Uh, just what sort of newspaper work do
you mean?

Oh, I have an interview tomorrow morning
with Vice President Obreon.

I would like to maybe trap him into
admitting something that might

incriminate him.

I see.

Well, thank you for the interview,
Senior O'Brien.

You're welcome. Oh, just one more
question.

Of course.

If President Patio dissolves his
government and calls for a new election,

would you run against him? My dear young
woman, I would not dream of opposing our

beloved president.

What in the world gave you that idea?

Well, I was just wondering.

Thank you again.

Hasta la vista.

Adios, Miss Lane.

Felipe, this young girl knows more than
she's telling.

President Patillo must have hinted to
her that he plans to hold a general

election as a vote of confidence.

If there is a new election, he will win
by a landslide.

He will be voted out of office, and we
will never get our hands on the mine.

Yes, we must act quickly before he has
time to call for this election.

We must remove him.

Permanently.

But how?

How? I happen to know that he is
planning to take Mr.

White and Miss Lane on an inspection
tour of the abandoned mines at San

Gabriel.

As you know, those mines go almost a
mile deep.

Are you sure it's safe?

Oh, quite safe.

Unless the mountain falls down on us.

Shall we go in?

Are you sure the dynamite is properly
planted and that there is a sufficient

quantity?

Worthy enough excellency to peel off
that tunnel for a hundred years.

And nothing can save them.

Nothing but supermans.

Make your call.

X-2-0 calling X-2-1.

Come in, X-2-1.

Come in, X-2-1.

This is X-2-1.

The prisoner is still here, Your
Excellency.

Bueno.

Un momento.

We will give them a few minutes to reach
the bottom of the shaft.

Then, adios el presidente Patillo.

Well, here we are.

Just think, we're a mile under the
surface of the earth.

I'd hate to be trapped down here by a
cave-in.

There is no chance of that happening,
senorita Lane.

I hope not. We'd be in a bad way if our
air supply were cut off.

Oh, come. This is what I wanted to show
you.

All right, my friend.

Now.

I think, Senior Vice President, that
perhaps you should have the honor of

electing yourself to the presidency.

Thank you, Felipe.

Your sentiment does you credit.

It sounded like dynamite.

Oh, no!

The elevator shaft is totally blocked.

You mean we can't get back to the top?

No. And fresh air cannot come down to
us.

Isn't there any other way to get out of
here?

There is no other way.

Senor, I fear that we are doomed.

President Patillo and his friends are
finished.

What a pity.

A terrible disaster.

For everybody but us.

It might still be disastrous for us if
by any chance we were to be connected

with this.

Don't worry, my friend.

I have already had rumors spread that
Superman must have escaped his prison

cell to perpetrate this outrage.

His guard will swear that he escaped.

And since Superman was present at the
earlier attempt on the president's life,

the people will be all the more likely
to believe it. Right.

Now we must go to the prison to make
sure he stays there.

If he were actually to escape, he might
yet rescue the president.

I shudder to think what might happen to
us if such a thing came to pass.

But of course, such a thing is
impossible.

Of course.

Vamonos.

If they could only dig down here with
some excavating machinery.

It would take days, maybe weeks.

By then it would be too late.

There is nothing powerful on Earth to
get us out in time.

Nothing.

an explosion at the San Gabriel mine.

President Patillo is trapped at the
bottom of a shaft, one mile deep.

With him are two newspaper people from
the United States, Senor Perry White and

Senorita Lois Lane, as well as two
bodyguards.

It is estimated their air supply will
not last very much longer.

And I am sorry to...

Isn't it still here?

Yes, senor. And I have a strange feeling
about this Superman.

What do you mean?

He does not act as a powerful man.

The mob outside worries him.

An angry mob would worry most men.

But Superman, a real Superman.

And when I pointed my rifle at him half
in jest, he was frightened.

Frightened as any other man who could
die.

Is it possible Superman is only...

An empty legend?

If it is true,

he would make a convenient escape code
for us.

Come.

What would you say if I were to tell you
that I am considering ordering your

release?

I would say that you have no authority
to do so.

But I do have the authority.

As President of the Republic.

As President?

Yes, yes, my friend, President.

Unfortunately, President Patillo and his
North American newspaper friends

perished at a cave-in at the San Gabriel
mine.

So as I was saying, I may consider
ordering your release.

My decision will depend upon whether or
not you are able to break through these

steel bars.

Thank you for the demonstration, my
friend.

You have my permission to leave whenever
you wish.

Open the door.

You see?

You can walk out the front door a free
man.

Yes, I can walk out the front door a
free man, as you said. Right in the arms

of your mob.

Or I can leave by that window.

I'm afraid you can't.

The bars on the window are at least as
strong as these.

Uh-huh. But I had some help with those.

As Lois Lane would say, boy, am I glad
to see you.

It has been a little rugged, hasn't it?
Professor Lucerne was right all the way.

How did you get out? The vice president
gave his official okay for my release.

Or if what he said was true, he may now
be president. It may very well be true.

Unless we do something about it. That
means we have to become one person

again. If we can.

It's a sense we're no good the way we
are.

We must try.

That we must.

I'm afraid it can't last much longer.

I don't think any of us will.

I feel so weak.

Come, come now.

You mustn't give up. Help me come even
yet.

No, senor.

I fear it can never come in time.

It sounds like machinery digging.

It's Superman.

Just take it easy, folks.

I've just dug a new tunnel.

The fresh air will revive you in no
time. It will all go out.

Well, this document places the mines
under our personal control.

From now on, the money will go into our
pockets instead of the National

Treasury. That's why you're around,
senores.

President Patillo.

And Superman.

Yes, Superman.

Not only did he rescue us, but you may
be interested to know that in digging a

new tunnel to reach us... He uncovered a
new vein of ore worth millions of

dollars, which my government will use
for the benefit of the people.

And now you are both under arrest for
trying to destroy me. You cannot prove

we had anything to do with this. We have
all the proof we need right here. Both

your fingerprints are on this detonator
box.

Arrest these criminals!

Must be asleep.

Cash, where on the blazes are you?

Well, come in, Chief. Come in.

Don't have to kick the door down, Chief.

I don't suppose you would be interested
in hearing about what's been happening

to us.

Oh, has something happened, sir?

Oh, not much, really.

We've just been in a cave-in. There's
been an attempt on the President's life.

Superman rescued us.

And we've cabled the story of the year
to the Daily Planet while you have been

resting your shattered nerves.

You want to hear something funny?

Yes, sir. At one time, Miss Lane had the
ridiculous idea that you were Superman.

Who, me?

Well, I realize it's pretty silly.
You've been sitting here while Superman

was in that awful jail.

I do see what you mean, though.

It's difficult even for Superman to be
two places at once, isn't it?

in the amazing adventures of Superman.

Superman is based on the original
character appearing in Superman

magazine.
