[DOOR OPENS]

Let me go.

What do you want from me?

JUDE: The truth.

[ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]

-Can I see some ID?
-You must be new here.

Hey, it's okay, let him through.

-Thanks, Kasich.
-No problem.

-She's cute.
-She's engaged.

What do you think?

It's loud.

-How's the VIP room tonight?
-We can make room for you.

AMANDA: I hope you didn't
feel obligated to entertain me.

Jude's only gone for a few days.

I don't believe in obligations.
Besides, your fiancé did me a favor.

I wasn't looking forward
to a night out on my own.

Something tells me you wouldn't
have been alone for very long.

-Two apple martinis.
-MAN: Coming up.

AMANDA: "Zero consequences."

That's quite a promise.

Only if it's kept.

To my good friend
Amanda on her engagement.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

[WOMEN LAUGHING]

What is it?

What are you doing?

-Amanda.
-You said you had to go away on business.

I can explain, okay? Just wait.

Amanda, wait a sec...

I can explain, Amanda. Just wait. Amanda!

You son of a bitch.
You did this on purpose.

You did it to yourself.
Amanda deserves better.

[ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]

[AMANDA SOBBING]

[YELLS]

Liar! That's what it said in the papers,
but that's not what really happened.

-It's the truth. Read the police reports!
-I know you covered it up.

I don't know how you did
it, but you're gonna pay.

Who are you?

Don't you remember?

You killed me.

-Daddy can't save you this time, Lex.

[BELL RINGS]

There is nothing like 50
minutes of Mr. Austin's

English class that works up an appetite.

Nothing like a student
biography to help me lose mine.

The biography part or the fact that our
student subjects were randomly assigned?

Pete's convinced that
the drawing was fixed.

There are a dozen ladies in our class,
each worthy of lengthy interrogation.

-I get stuck with Stan Gibson?
-The manager of the student store?

-I hear he's very...
-Efficient?

Funny. I'm about to learn more about
the art of selling "Go Crow" pennants

than any human should have to endure.

You haven't stopped smiling
since we left. Who's your victim?

-The illustrious Mr. Kent himself.
-Oh!

-Me?
-I take it back.

Chloe's the one with the challenge.

-Excuse me?
-No offense, Clark,

but digging up six pages
of interesting on you

-is gonna require serious excavation.
-I do stuff.

Yes, and I'm sure that once I
deploy my journalistic skills on you,

I'll unearth a skeleton or two.

You know, Chloe, this is a class
project, not a corruption scandal.

Relax. It's not like you
have anything to hide, right?

Come on, Clark, cough up. Who'd you get?

Don't tell me. Lana Lang.

Just look at his face, you
don't even have to see it.

Like I said, definitely rigged.

-I assume you'll start your paper ASAP?
-It's all gonna work out.

I'm helping Lana at the Talon
getting ready for the opening.

Surrogate boyfriend does the lifting
while Whitney works at his dad's store.

-On that note.
-Wait.

When are you gonna sit
down to do my interview?

Right. Uh, I'll be around.

Did he just blow me off?

One step forward, two
steps back. Come on.

[PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]

You promised me everything
would be ready on time.

MAN: That was before the
plumbing started leaking.

-Hasn't been replaced in years.
-How long will that take?

I can't really give you a straight
answer, not until I crawl up there.

You resurrect the past, you get
the problems that come with it.

Lex Luthor's going to be by
later. He's going to need numbers

and a timetable and a
better explanation than that.

Sorry, we're not open yet.

It's about the assistant
manager position.

I know I'm late, but if I
can get an application...

Yeah, yeah, just give me a second.

Great. Really appreciate
this, Miss, uh...?

-Lang.
-Lang.

Just to warn you, my aunt's not taking
any more interviews until next week.

Well, that's all right. I happen
to have all the time in the world.

-I'm Jude Royce.
-Hi.

So I understand that Lex
Luthor has a stake in this project.

Yeah, he's one of the owners.
Why? Do you know him?

-A lifetime ago in Metropolis.
-Must have been interesting.

Well, let's just say there's
a reason he's in Smallville.

You know my advice? Stay away from him.

When Lex gets involved,
things usually turn out badly.

[ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC
BLARING OVER SPEAKERS]

What are you doing here?
We had an understanding.

After that night, we were
never to have any contact.

-I saw him, Lex.
-Who?

Jude.

-We both know that's impossible.
-Listen to me! He's alive.

Everywhere I go, I see him.

-He's stalking me.
-Kasich. Calm down.

I'm not crazy.

-This man say what he wanted?
-Yeah. The truth.

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

Listen. I keep an apartment in the city.

It's very secure. You stay
there and wait for my call.

-Hey, Lex.
-Hey.

-Who was that?
-Nobody.

I hear we sprung a leak.

Is everything all right?

-Just a little weirded out.
-Relax, it's just a leak.

No, a friend of yours came by, applied
for the assistant manager position.

He told me to stay away from you.

What was his name?

Jude Royce.

[HAUNTING MUSIC PLAYING]

-What is it, Lex?
-When did he leave?

Just before you came in.

Lex, who's Jude Royce?

Trust me, Clark, I have
no idea who Lana met today

but it couldn't have been him.

Don't worry about it, Clark. I'm not.

[INTENSE MUSIC BLARING
AND PEOPLE SCREAMING]

What's going on?

I don't know!

Feel under the dash.

[MUSIC STOPS]

Looks like someone decided
to get creative while I was inside.

What were the screams?

I assume it's someone's
twisted idea of a joke.

And a successful one. We've
managed to draw a crowd.

-Lex.
-Clark, this really doesn't concern you.

Hello, anybody home?

Hey, pull up a microphone, son.

-Chloe, what's going on?
-Since I couldn't find you,

I decided to start my biographical
inquiry at the beginning.

Unlike a certain
so-called friend of mine,

your parents gracefully
agreed to be interviewed.

Chloe's been asking us some
very interesting questions, Clark.

Thank you. Um, now, we
just have a few more to go, so.

We were talking about the early days.

Now, what was involved in adopting Clark?

Well, it was... It was just like
any normal adoption, I guess.

Can you take me through the
process? Did it takes weeks or months?

Did you guys use a lawyer, or
did you go through an agen...?

Shoot. I'm out of tape. That's okay,
I've got some extra C-90s in my car.

I'll be right back.

Chloe's researching your
life for a school project?

-When did that happen?
-We just got the assignment today.

I didn't know she'd go Mike Wallace.

We don't mind talking about you

but if she starts asking
questions about the adoption...

What about the adoption?

Is there something I should know?

Well, of course, we
had to make up a story

but it's more complicated than that.

Let's just say it's a subject we
would rather not have anyone explore.

Sorry. Am I interrupting?

Clark, now that you're
finally spinning in my orbit,

I have a couple of
pertinents for you too.

Actually, this is just a pit stop for me.

I'm on my way to meet
Lana to work on my paper.

You know, Clark, not to strike a
paranoid note, but are you avoiding me?

Tomorrow, I promise.

Okay, this isn't an official question,

and I don't want you guys
to take it the wrong way,

but has your son
always been this strange?

-How does it feel?
-Feel?

To single-handedly bring the Talon back

from the brink of
becoming a parking garage?

It's nice, you know, being
counted on, having responsibility.

-People treat you differently.
-Like you won't break.

Finally feel like I'm shedding
that fairy-princess costume.

[CAR APPROACHES]

-Lex, what are you doing here?
-Contractor called.

Said he had an estimate,
wanted me to meet him here.

LEX: What the hell?

LANA: Are you okay?

Yeah. I came in the back
door and some guy jumped me

and forced me to let him in
and bashed me over the head.

Did you see his face?

No.

CLARK: Look.

That wasn't there when I
locked up. I'll go call the police.

Lex, your name's on it.

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

Zero consequences.

How you holding up?

I was fine until it showed up.

Yeah, stupid question.

What kind of a sick person
would do a thing like that?

I don't know.

But I've never seen Lex
so freaked out before.

LANA: Join the club.

That guy warned me. He said
everything Lex touches ends badly.

How much do we really
know about him and his past?

I want you both to know
how truly sorry I am about this.

I promise this won't
affect the grand opening.

We're going to be infamous
before we even open the doors.

Do you know who he is?
The guy in the...? You know.

Max Kasich. And yes, I knew
him a long time ago in Metropolis.

Do you have any idea who
might have done this to him?

Not at all.

What about your old friend Jude Royce?

-I doubt it could have been him, Clark.
-Why?

Because he's been dead for three years.

[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]

[BELL RINGS]

The only information I got from the Kents

was the earth-shattering
admission that Clark hates peas.

A body part shows up at the Talon
and all you can talk about is Clark?

Where are your priorities? Lex
Luthor must be mixed up in this.

I know you've got
issues with the Luthors...

More than issues. You know
what they did to my family.

One piece of investigative
information at a time.

-About Clark.
-Chloe, what do you want from me?

In a world of designer
water, Clark's from the tap.

But you've known him the longest.
All I need is just a little anecdote,

just a small piece of information
from Clark's deep, dark past.

Well, there was something
back in the first grade.

Thank you! That's more than
I've uncovered the past two days.

Now, please, let's continue.

There was a bully three grades ahead.

This dude was determined
to pound dents into every kid.

One day it was my turn. He
was just about to take my head off

-when Clark jumped between us.
-So Clark ran interference?

CHLOE: Now, as kind as that sounds, Pete,

it doesn't fall into the
"something amazing" test.

-What test?
-I'm not finished.

Clark didn't just push him,
he put him through a door,

as in splinters and broken hinges.
How he did it, I still have no idea.

-Guy was at least twice our size.
-Clark, any comments?

Uh, well, we were, you know, 6 years
old. Twice our size was three feet tall.

If you need more ancient
history, ask the source.

I've got an appointment
at the student store.

CHLOE: Have fun.

And so the mystery that
isn't Clark Kent deepens.

-Mystery?
-Yeah.

Since you continue
to play obstructionist,

I've had to find information
through other means.

I found that your adoption was done
through Metropolis United Charities

but this is the strange part. They
were in business for six months.

From what I can tell, yours is
the only adoption they handled.

I can't believe you did this, Chloe.

You didn't know? I just assumed
that your parents would have told you.

-I mean, weren't you interested?
-Why would I be?

My biological parents are
either dead or didn't want me.

-You're prying into my private life.
-I was just trying to be thorough.

This is a class project. I spent an
hour yesterday with Lana, that's it.

That's all I needed. I'm not
some mystery for you to solve.

CHLOE: Clark, I...

LEX: Talk to me, Mr. Raines.

RAINES: According to the doorman,
Kasich never made it to the apartment.

-LEX: What about Royce?
-His parents died when he was young.

Car accident. He was an
only child, inherited everything.

And Amanda Rothman?
Have you tracked her down yet?

She moved, left no forwarding address.
When's the last time you spoke to her?

About three years ago.

I'll go wider, but it
could take some time.

It'd help if you tell me what's going on.

No, it wouldn't. You're
my head of security.

You find her and warn
her she could be in danger.

That's all you need to know.

PHELAN: Make a path. Police.
Excuse me, excuse me. Police.

-Who are you?
-Detective Sam Phelan, Metropolis PD.

Are you what passes
for security in this zoo?

-KASICH: Yeah.
-PHELAN: Don't go anywhere. We'll talk.

-Thank God you're here.
-Lex, Lex.

You really put your foot in it this time.

Tell me exactly what happened.

Hey, if you fall apart
on me, I can't help you.

Now what went down?

[FAITHLESS' "GOD IS A DJ" PLAYING]

[WOMAN SCREAMS]

That's exactly what happened?

Good. Here's how it's gonna go.

You were never here. Your name will not
appear in any papers or the police report.

-How?
-That's what your daddy's money's for.

This one's gonna cost him.

-What about Amanda?
-I'll take care of everybody's story,

but you are never to see her
or talk to her again. You got it?

Call this guy, he'll take
care of your shoulder.

No emergency rooms.

All right, get out of here.

-Did you see what happened?
-Most of it.

Well, smile. Because you're about
to come into some serious money.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

Nothing to say?

I thought Lex Luthor had all the answers.

Look, you twisted son of a bitch.

-I don't know what you want.
-What happened at Club Zero?

The cover-up.

You know the cop?

The one on the report? Phelan?

He's dead.

It seems you were somehow involved
in that too. I find that very interesting.

-Why don't you kill me now?
-Uh...

Because it's more
fun to watch you suffer.

Knowing that at any moment, bang!

Tell me.

What really happened?

Lex!

Lex, you all right?

Clark, what are you doing here?

Your office told me you were here.

I thought I heard someone else.

No. I'm all by myself.

Hey, I looked up Max Kasich.

I know what happened at Club Zero.

That he was shot, and killed Jude Royce.
Everyone fits into this except for you.

-What's going on?
-Please, Clark.

For our friendship, I'm
asking you to stay out of this.

Some secrets are better left alone.

Clark.

Come on, son, the cows
aren't gonna feed themselves.

-You have a late night?
-I was helping Lana.

She's not gonna let the whole body-part
incident delay the opening of the Talon.

That's what happens when you get into
business with somebody like Lex Luthor.

If it wasn't for Lex, the Talon
would be a parking garage.

Son, he casts a very, very long shadow.

I just want to make sure none
of you kids get hurt, that's all.

The past is in the past. The best
we can do is look to the future.

All right, you got me.

Speaking of that, how's
Chloe's paper coming along?

I assume she's done with her interviews?

I'm not sure.

Look, Clark, if she mentions anything
to you about the peas, I'm sorry.

It's the first thing that came to mind.

And if she mentions anything to me
about the Metropolis United Charities?

I used to think perseverance
was an admirable quality.

Since I learned the real truth, I
hadn't thought about the adoption.

Dad, Chloe told me the agency
you used was only open six months

and I was the only kid adopted.

Look, son, uh

the process is a really tough one even
when you go through normal channels.

With you, it was just a little
more complicated, that's all.

-Is everything legal?
-Yeah, it's legal, it's just...

Well, it required a higher level of
access than your mother or I had.

What does that mean?

Let's just say it's a long road
between what's sitting in our storm cellar

and what's written on
your birth certificate.

-You hear that?
-Hear what?

The whole herd's just over that rise.
We ought to be hearing something.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING]

[SIREN WAILING]

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

CHLOE: What do you think happened?

Why would LuthorCorp
dump their stuff here?

Um, I'm gonna go take
from some different angles.

Mr. and Mrs. Kent, I have no
idea how this could have happened

but I'll do everything
in my power to find out.

And I'll pay for your
livestock, of course.

You think that's how you
solve everything, don't you, Lex?

You sprinkle a little money on it
and hope the problem goes away.

Well, obviously, some things
are a little more difficult than that.

I didn't think it was possible to
fall any further in your father's eyes.

Obviously, I was wrong.

I'd never intentionally allow
something like this to happen.

Does this have anything
to do with Club Zero?

-I think so.
-You need to tell the authorities

everything you know. This
isn't just about you anymore.

Mr. Luthor, the CEP guy needs
to talk to you. He's over there.

Looks like a black mark on your
company's environmental record.

-I'm gonna walk over and get the sheriff.
-And tell him what?

[YELLS, THEN GRUNTS]

Just tell him that Clark
Kent called. Thank you.

-Who was that?
-I'm trying to reach Lex.

He's not in the office.
He's not at the mansion

and his cell phone goes
straight to voice mail.

Where's Dad?

Still supervising the
removal of the cows.

-Lex said he'd pay for that.
-Clark, this isn't just about money.

We don't know what kind of health threat
this poses to us or to our neighbors.

I don't think this is Lex's fault.

Someone is trying to set him up
because of what happened at the nightclub.

Look.

-Until this is cleared up, I don't...
-Lex has always been a good friend.

I know. I'm usually the
one who defends him

but there are some things in
his past that are a little shady.

In this family we don't look at the past.

Clark, I grew up in Metropolis,
I know the Luthor world.

It looks glamorous and fun,
but the kids grow up too fast

and they can get into trouble.

Whatever's happening to
Lex is starting to affect you.

Body parts in boxes and
poisoned cows? This isn't normal.

What do you want me to
do? Cut him out of my life?

No, I want you to cool it off for a while
until we know what really happened.

Your father and I just don't want
to see you pulled into his problems.

Can I talk to you for a second?

How you doing?

-That depends if it's on the record.
-Okay, I deserve that.

Look, I didn't mean to ambush you
with the whole adoption agency thing.

Hey, you saw a story
and you went right for it.

-That's what journalists do.
-You're right.

I didn't think about
how it would hurt you.

And, you know, as much
as journalistic instinct rebels,

I'd rather have a friend than a subject

so I'm dropping the whole thing.

Thank you.

Can I ask you a question?

Totally off the record.

Do you ever wonder about
your biological parents?

Every day of my life.

Looks like I'm not the only
one doing some digging.

-What's Club Zero?
-Part of Lex's past

he asked me to stay out of.

Oh. By the way, I brought by
some pictures for your parents.

I figured they could use it for
insurance purposes and stuff.

I'll see you later. I gotta go.

Chloe…

It's the same guy.

[OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING]

-Wait, but he's...
-Dead.

Help!

Somebody!

Help! [GRUNTS]

Help!

[YELLING]

Somebody!

No word from Lex. No one's
spoken to him since this morning.

I pulled our alleged dead guy's license.
It's registered to a John Smith. Original.

He has an address in Metropolis
and doesn't work for the CEP.

-How'd you do that?
-I hacked into the DMV database.

-Sometimes persistence is a good thing.
-Call Metropolis PD.

-Have them go to that address.
-What's going on?

I think Lex is in serious trouble.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC PLAYING]

You ready to talk?

You're finally where you should
have been three years ago.

Exposed in the spotlight.

What do you want from me?

The truth about Club Zero.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Kasich.

Excuse me, did you
find anyone else in there?

-You know where I can find Club Zero?
-You're six months too late, kid.

-What do you mean?
-Well, it closed down.

It was an old warehouse on 78th and Main.

JUDE: Liar! That's what it said in the

papers, but that's not
what really happened.

-It's the truth. Read the police reports!
-I know you covered it up.

I don't know how you did
it, but you're gonna pay.

Who are you?

Don't you remember?

You killed me.

Daddy can't save you this time, Lex.

[GUNSHOT]

[BODY THUDS]

[HAUNTING MUSIC PLAYING]

[ELECTRONIC DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]

No more games, Lex.

It's time for the truth.

I know you. You're the
contractor from the Talon.

That's my day job.

[GROANING]

Who are you?

Amanda never talked about her family?

She said she had a
brother in Central City.

He was in prison. She was the
only person who kept in touch.

She was my lifeline when I was inside.

I never had a rich daddy
to keep me out of jail.

-I don't understand. What do you want?
-What do I want? What do I want?

I want vengeance for my sister.

What do you mean? Where's Amanda?

She's dead, Lex.

She committed suicide a year ago.

-I never knew.
-Because you cut her out of your life.

She was never the same after Club
Zero. Jude's death devastated her.

He was the love of her
life. You took all that away.

She had nothing to live for.

LEX: Who's that?

Lucky break.

Couple weeks after Amanda's funeral,

I walk into a greasy spoon
in Bludhaven and there he is.

I couldn't believe it.
Short-order cook flipping burgers.

You know how they say everyone in
life has a double? I had to look twice.

I figure if he can fool
me, he can fool you.

LEX: Why'd he do it?

He was on parole, needed the
money, and that's when I got the idea.

You ruined Mandy's life, I'd ruin yours.

Mandy's finally gonna get
the justice she deserves.

You were right.

You were right. The newspapers,
the police reports, what I told Phelan.

They were all lies. You want
the truth? I'll give it to you.

[FAITHLESS' "GOD IS A DJ" PLAYING]

♪ God is a DJ ♪

-No, no, no. You're twisting it again!
-That's what happened!

That's what happened.
Amanda pulled the trigger.

She shot Jude. I was
just trying to protect her.

I'm through with you, Lex!

Killing me won't bring Amanda back.

None of this can change what happened.

I don't care.

After tonight, you'll
never hurt anyone else.

You can't escape your past, Lex.

Lex!

LEX: Get down! There's
a man with a gun up there.

Where? You mean that guy?

-What happened?
-I have no idea.

How'd you find me here?

With a little help from my friends.

I got this for you.

Don't worry, it's not a body part.

It was in the attic. It
was my grandfather's.

It was taken just after the Talon opened.

-You could hang it above the counter.
-Clark, it's amazing. Thank you.

You're welcome.

raise a finger to help her

but I knew he'd do
anything to save his son.
