   1   EXT. AMERICANA CAFE - METROPOLIS SOUTHSIDE - DAY #1                         1

 

       A charming bistro, empty but for LOIS and CLARK sitting at

       an outdoor table, amid the remains of an enormous meal.

       Lois' UNCLE MIKE LANE, a hearty ex-Marine, comes out of the

       restaurant brandishing two massive slabs of cake.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       Chocolate torte in raspberry sauce.

 

                                          LOIS

                       Oh, Uncle Mike, no --

 

       Lois and Clark look at the lucious desserts.

 

                                          LOIS (CONT'D)

                       Well, I guess I _could_ just move

                       into my gym for a month...

 

                                          CLARK

                       Mmm, this is great.

 

                                          LOIS

                       He does all the baking himself.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       Lately more of a hobby than a job.

 

                                          CLARK

                       I just don't understand what

                       happened to this neighborhood.

 

 

   2   WIDEN TO REVEAL - THE STREET                                                2

 

       around the the cafe.  Boarded up storefronts, burned-out

       apartments, trash piled high, abandoned cars.  UNCLE MIKE's

       cafe is the last open business on this block.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       Well, the neighborhood's in

                       transition.  Gettin' more...

                       eclectic.  Kinda like Saigon

                       without the jets.

 

       As he eats, Clark dribbles raspberry sauce on his tie.

                                          LOIS

                       Better get some water on that.

                       Remember -- dab, don't wipe.

 

       Clark goes into the restaurant. Mike sits with Lois.

 

                                          LOIS (CONT'D)

                       Clark's right, this is crazy.  Six

                       months ago this was the hottest

                       street in town.

 

       At that moment a big convertible ROARS into sight, stuffed

       with GANG KIDS, HOOTING and HOLLERING.

 

                                          LOIS (CONT'D)

                       Just a wild stab, but... could they

                       have something to do with it?

   4   EXT. ALLEY BEHIND THE CAFE - DAY                                            4

 

       Through a small back window, WE SEE Clark dabbing his tie at

       an UNSEEN sink just below the sill. He turns away to dry

       it, just as --

 

       A psychotic, five-foot-two-inch Skin named BABY RAGE skulks

       past.  He moves to the kitchen's back door, takes out a

       small black box, punches a code into the keypad atop the box

       and --

 

       In the window, Clark turns and sees Baby Rage set the box in

       the door frame, where it EXPLODES in FLAME.  FIRE consumes

       the doorway.  Baby Rage watches his handiwork, delighted.

 

       Clark whips off his glasses.

 

       Baby Rage turns, starts to run and plows right SUPERMAN, who

       grabs the kid by the scruff and with a single SUPER-BREATH,

       Superman puts out the fire.

 

                                          BABY RAGE

                       Man, you just stepped over a _line_

                       and you're going down!

 

       Superman sticks Baby Rage's hand through a dumpster handle,

       then MOLDS it around his wrist so he can't get away.

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       You're the only one going anywhere.

                       Hope you don't mind showering in

                       groups.

       Just as Lois and Mike run around the corner, Superman waves

       and TAKES OFF.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       Little punk tried to burn me out...

 

                                          BABY RAGE

                       Can't prove that, man, can't prove

                       nothin'.  Nobody saw a thing!

 

                                          CLARK

                             (stepping through the

                              smoldering kitchen door)

                       I did.

 

                                          LOIS

                             (whips out cell phone)

                       I'm calling the police.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       Take your shoes off and get

                       comfortable.  Last time I called,

                       they took two hours.

 

                                          LOIS

                             (into phone)

                       Yes, I'm reporting an attempted

                       arson, my name is Lois Lane, I --

                             (stares at phone, pissed)

                       He put me on hold.

 

                                          BABY RAGE

                       Lois Lane?

                             (laughs)

                       _You're_ Lois Lane?

 

                                          LOIS

                       I'm sorry, have we met?

 

                                          BABY RAGE

                       No, we ain't met. It's just funny

                       to me 'cause... you're dead.  I

                       mean, I know you're walkin' around

                       but trust me, lady, go pick out a

                       nice grave.  And from what I hear,

                       pick it out fast.

   7   INT. POLICE STATION - DAY                                                   7

 

       Cuffed from behind, Baby Rage is hauled across the squad

       room to be booked, fighting every step of the way.  Lois,

       Clark and Uncle Mike linger in his wake, studying the

       station house.  It seems woefully understaffed and what COPS

       are here shoot the breeze, get coffee and read, taking it

       easy.

 

                                          LOIS

                       All that crime out there and look

                       what we've got in here -- a donut

                             commercial.

 

                                          MAYSON

                             (O.S.)

                       Excuse me...

 

       Clark turns and sees MAYSON DRAKE -- twenty-nine, sharply

       dressed and gorgeous.

 

                                          MAYSON (CONT'D)

                       Is one of you Clark Kent?

 

                                          CLARK

                       I am.

 

       Mayson holds out her hand.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Mayson Drake, Deputy DA.  I'd like

                       to see if you're willing to testify

                       against Baby Rage.

 

       Across the room, Baby Rage is screaming a pint-sized blue

       streak, kicking and biting as he's hauled out of sight by

       COPS.

 

                                          CLARK

                       Baby Rage.

                             (drily)

                       Wonder why they call him that?

 

                                          MAYSON

                             (glances at report in

                              hand, then:)

                       You must be Mike Lane.  I'm sorry about

                       what happened to your

                       restaurant.

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       Thanks, but they're gonna have to

                       do a lot better than that to get me

                       to pull out.

 

       Mayson's eyes meet Lois'.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       I'm sorry, you're...?

 

                                          LOIS

                       Lois Lane.

 

       Mayson gives her a blank stare.

 

                                          LOIS (CONT'D)

                       The one who called the police?  And

                       I just wanted to say, about their

                       response time -- I've seen maple

                       drip faster.

 

                                          CLARK

                       Also, this kid threatened Lois.

 

                                          LOIS

                       Oh, Clark, he was just trying to

                       scare me.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Well, now it's my turn to scare

                       _him_.

                             (to Clark)

                       With your help.

 

                                          CLARK

                       Sure, of course.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       I should warn you, it's not going

                       to be easy.  This whole thing

                       happening on the Southside isn't

                       just about gang turf.  There's big

                       money and big players in the

                       shadows.  I think Baby Rage knows a

                       lot and I might just find out how

                       much... if I can make a strong

                       enough case to strap his butt to a

                       broiler and turn up the heat.

 

                                          CLARK

                       Whatever I saw, I'll tell it in

                       court, Ms. Drake.

                       Mayson.  Call my office in the

                       morning so we can arrange a

                       deposition.  And if you need to

                       reach me during off hours, my home

                                          LOIS

                             (amused; sotto to Mike)

                       Subtle.

 

       Clark nods to Mayson as he studies the card.

 

                                          CLARK

                       Thanks.  And I'll have Superman get

                       in touch with you.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Oh, Superman, right.

                             (frowns)

                       I guess I have to talk to him,

                       don't I?

 

                                          LOIS

                       Most people consider that an honor.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Well, I guess I'm not most people.

                       Clark, we'll talk soon?

 

       She brushes her hand on his arm, throws him a dazzler of a

       smile and moves deeper into the station.  As he pockets the

       card --

 

                                          LOIS

                             (takes Clark's arm, leads

                              him to exit)

                       C'mon, we're going to find out why

                       these cops are so slow all of a

                       sudden.

                             (kissing his cheek)

                       Bye, Uncle Mike.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       Go get 'em, honey.

 

       As Lois and Clark walk out, they hear the WHINE of a

                       He got it.

                       Maybe he ignored it.

                       Thanks for coming.

 

                                          SILHOUETTE COP

                       This must be Kent.  We've never

                       met.  Hopefully, we never will. 

                       So, Lois, you want to know about

                       We're sure.

 

                                          SILHOUETTE COP

                       Right now, it's all focussed on the

                       Southside.  Precincts having their

                       funding cut; men transferred;

                       look the other way.

 

                                          LOIS

                                          CLARK

                       People want to move.

 

                                          LOIS

                       Prices go down.  Whole blocks go on

                       the market for pennies on the

                       dollar.

 

                                          SILHOUETTE COP

                       Very good.

 

                                          LOIS

                       We need names.

 

       A car moves past slowly.  The Cop tenses.

 

                                          SILHOUETTE COP

                       Put it this way, it'd be faster to

                       give you the names of cops who

                       _weren't_ into this.

 

       The car stops.  Lois, Clark and the Silhouette Cop freeze

       for a moment, then the car moves on, out of sight.  Everyone

       breathes a little easier.

 

                                          SILHOUETTE COP (CONT'D)

                       I want to help, bad cops make a bad

                       city, but my neck's a little too

                       far out as it is.

       A big banner draped across the front of this no-frills

       warehouse announces: GRAND OPENING!

 

       A gathering-of REPORTERS, city BRAHMANS and CUSTOMERS

       waiting to get great deals.  A dais has been constructed and

       on it, we find PERRY at the microphone.

 

                                          PERRY

                       Good people of Metropolis, I'm

                       Perry White, editor of the Daily

                       Planet --

                             (APPLAUSE)

                       --  thank you, and this is the

                       chairman of the Price House

                       Discount Chain, Mr. Bill Church!

 

       APPLAUSE as BILL CHURCH mounts the dais.  Fifty-five, with

       the fit, weatherbeaten demeanor of a contractor, he is

       dressed in his well-known uniform of chinos and cardigan

       sweater -- the world's most understated billionaire.

 

       In the crowd of Reporters, Jimmy clicks off photos as Church

       and Perry shake hands.

 

                                          PERRY (CONT'D)

                       Now as some of you may know, Mr.

                       Church is as notoriously shy as I

                       am notoriously not.

                             (LAUGHTER from the crowd)

                       So he's asked me to make the

                       announcement that his company and

                       the Daily Planet are co-sponsoring

                       a charity ball, to take place in

                       Centennial Park and raise money

                       for the Urban Redevelopment Fund.

                       Thank you, Perry. I just want to

                       say how glad I am to be a part of

       studies a Price House catalogue, while nearby, Jimmy is

                       stay on the road or make a U-turn?

 

                                          JIMMY

                       Man, you're batting a thousand

                       today.

 

                                          PERRY

                       Son, I'm a happily married man.

                       But before that... well, let's just

                       say in the area of the opposite

                       sex, I gained my share of wisdom

                       through experience.

                             (a fatherly hand on the

                              boy's shoulder as they

                              walk)

                       Think of love as a jungle river --

                       exotic but treacherous, beautiful

                       but uncharted.  Reach up to pick a

                       mango off a tree, you're just as

                       likely to get your arm ripped off

                       by a jaguar.

                             (as they exit)

                       Now think of me as the guide who's

                       been down that river many a time,

                       who knows every rock, rapid and

                       twist...

 

                                          JIMMY

                       I'm a little lost... are you saying

                       call her or what?

       far end, all facing a high-backed chair at the head.  Church

       seats himself there and the monitors FLICKER to life

       automatically.  On four of them, the faces of CHURCH'S

       computer data -- financial, political, criminal.  Church

       controls the room from a small keypad in front of him.

  32   INT. CHURCH'S LAIR - DAY                                                   32

 

       Church sits at his conference table.  The conversation

       between Superman and Snell comes in over speakers.  He dips

       his spoon into a bowl of pea soup, then crumbles crackers,

       sipping from a tall glass of milk.  Listening with interest.

 

 

  33   BACK TO THE ARBORETUM                                                      33

 

       as Snell and Superman talk.

 

                                          SNELL

                       Face it. You got your little red

                       shorts caught in a bad combo of

                       high-tech and close friends.

                       Even _you_ can't be in two places

                       at once but our bullets can.  So

                       where does that leave us?

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                             (grabs his arm)

                       Let's ask the DA.

 

                                          SNELL

                       Sure, you could take me in, you're

                       Superman and I'm just a guy from

                       Paramus.  But do that and two

                       things happen -- A, someone you

                       care about dies --

                             (pulls arm free)

                       -- and B, a replacement for me

                       steps right in.  Now you don't want

                       'A' and I don't want 'B' so I think

                       what you need is a little attitude

                       adjustment.  By that I mean, be the

                       best Superman you can be.  Street

                       crime?  Wipe it out.  Terrorists?

                       Hey, I drive a Ferrari, put those

                       guys in _orbit_.

                             (low, menacing)

                                          SUPERMAN

                       On one thing.  This is not over.

 

       Superman FLIES off.

                       gotta love it, Mr. Church.

                       Thanks for the statement, we'll be

                       office --

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Like I said, we'll be in touch.

                       I'd be more than willing to testify

                       against Baby Rage.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       I don't think so.

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       Ms. Drake, have I done something to

                       offend you?

 

                                          MAYSON

                       No, but I have to admit, I've never

                       much liked the idea of you.

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       I don't follow...

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Do you have a license to chase

                       criminals?

                             (before he can answer)

                       Do you ever read them their rights?

                       Are you insured if you hurt

       She stops to confer with a COLLEAGUE, leaving Superman a

       little bemused:

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       This is just not my day.

 

 

       Lois appears.  She beams at the sight of him.

                                          SUPERMAN

                             (a little distracted)

                       Hi, Lois.

                                          MAYSON

                       Funny.  He's a lot shorter in

                             (suddenly beaming)

                       Clark!  Hi.

 

                                          CLARK

                       Sorry I'm late.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       You're not late.  But I'm afraid I

                       just got called in on a double

                       homicide downtown, so we're going

                       to have to postpone our deposition.

                       Can I call you and reschedule?

                       about something we've found out.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Let's walk.

 

       They do and Mayson insinuates herself between Lois and

       Clark.  Lois tries to hide her annoyance as --

 

                                          LOIS

                       We know about Intergang.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Tell me what you've learned.

 

                                          LOIS

                       It's worldwide; it's been in

                       existence for almost twenty

                       years... All they seem to do is

                       acquire.  Companies, other criminal

                       operations, even governments --

                       they just swallow them whole and

                       start running them, always from a

                       distance, hidden.

 

                                          CLARK

                       You think they're funding the

                       Skins, don't you?

 

                                          MAYSON

                       I do.

 

                                          LOIS

                       A source we have thinks they've

                       infiltrated the police but he won't

                       give us names.

 

                                          CLARK

                       We were hoping you would.

                       I wish I could.

 

                                          LOIS

                       Look, this isn't just a story to

                       me.  My uncle is alone on that

                       block and he's a stubborn, proud

                       man.  That could get him killed.

                       I don't know.

 

       At that moment, a handcuffed Baby Rage is led out of a

       prison van by a GUARD and meets up with his lawyer --

       something to Baby Rage, who laughs, then --

 

                                          BABY RAGE

                       Hey, reporter man -- got a match?

 

       He laughs again as they walk by.  Snell glances back, this

       time at Lois.  He gives her a wink.

                       Who's the greasy creep in the silk

                                          CLARK

       Church is alone, golf club in hand, lining up a putt.  Snell

       comes in through the elevator.

 

                                          CHURCH

                       New item we're thinking of carrying

                       in the stores.  The Swing King,

                       guaranteed to improve your putt,

                       for just forty-nine bucks.

                       Well... _thirty_-nine.  So Martin,

                       what's the latest on the Southside?

 

       Snell manipulates a keyboard on the conference table.  The

       room lights DIM.  A DETAILED MAP of Metropolis' riverfront

       Southside is projected onto the conference tabletop.  Snell

       hits a button.  Most of the city blocks become HIGHLIGHTED

       in GREEN, several in YELLOW and one small building in RED.

 

                                          SNELL

                       Our silent partners have acquired

                       everything highlighted in green.

                       The yellow areas are in

                       negotiation.

 

                                          CHURCH

                       And the red dot there?

 

                                          SNELL

                       That restaurant owner, Bill Lane.

                             (hands a file to Church)

                       Here's everything we have on him.

       policeman's uniform, no glasses, hat pulled low over the

       eyes like a cowl.  Unrecognizable as either Man of Steel or

       Mild-Mannered Reporter.  He snatches the knife away and

                       You have the right to an attorney.

                                          PERRY

                       How about, make yourself a rarity?

                             (she nods)

                       Huh.  Well, those are my best ones.

                       I guess I'm fresh outta front porch

                       wisdom, so we're just gonna have to

                       talk.  You seemed pretty upset after

                       that blowout with Clark.

 

                                          LOIS

                       Perry, he's letting his feelings

                       for a woman get in the way of our

                       story.

 

                                          PERRY

                       And...?

 

                                          LOIS

                       And... it's unprofessional and I

                       think it's getting in the way of

                       our story...

 

                                          PERRY

                       And...?

 

                                          LOIS

                       And... I don't like it, okay?  I

                       don't even know why but I don't

                       like it.

 

                                          PERRY

                       Lois, let me tell you what I know

                       about Clark Kent:  if you asked for

                       the moon, held start building a

                       rocket.  Now, Clark's a nice man

                       but when you get right down to it,

                       a nice man is still just a man.

       Mayson comes out the front door just as Clark walks up.

 

                                          CLARK

                       Hi.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Clark, do you know Bill church?

 

       Before Clark can answer, Church comes out of the restaurant

       with Mike Lane.

 

                                          CLARK

                             (a little startled)

                       No, we've... never met.

 

       They shake hands.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       I was talking to Bill about what

                       was happening here on the Southside

                       and since he's chairing the Urban

                       Redevelopment Fund, I thought he

                       ought to get down here himself and

                       spread a little of that wealth

                       around.

 

                                          CHURCH

                       Terrible when you see this happen

                       to a nice neighborhood.  Such a

                       waste.

 

                                          CLARK

                             (looking at Mayson, then

                              Church)

                       But somebody's going to make money

                       on this... somehow.  Right?

 

       Church locks eyes with Clark for just a second, then smiles

       benignly.

                       No, I owe the apology.

                       New evidence seems to indicate that

                       the officers who arrested the

                       defendant did not properly apprise

                       him of his Miranda rights.  And the

                       warrant issued to search his house

       eyes snap to Mayson.

 

                                          JUDGE (CONT'D)

                       Ms. Drake, your office personally

                       issued the warrant.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       There must be some mistake...

 

                                          JUDGE

                       If so, I'll grant you twenty-four

                       hours to investigate this matter

                       Otherwise, I'll have no choice but

                       to declare the arrest invalid and

                       Sorry, Mayson.  Better luck next

                             (they get in the

                       She'll be half-listening,

       The smart bullet cuts around a building and out of sight.

 

       Superman FLIES into view.  Looks left, then right -- where

       did it go?

 

 

  82   EXT. METROPOLIS STREET - NEWSTAND - NIGHT                                  82

 

       A selection of overseas newspapers under his arm, Perry

       steps off the curb.  Suddenly, Superman throws himself in

       front of the editor as the smart bullet SQUIB HITS his cape.

 

                                          PERRY

                       Superman, did you just save me from

                       something?

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       Uh-huh.

 

                                          PERRY

                       Do I wanna know what it was?

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       Nah.

 

       He FLIES off.

 

 

  83   INT. CHURCH'S LAIR - NIGHT                                                 83

 

       Snell sits, humiliated.  Church opens his pill bottle.

 

                                          CHURCH

                       Martin, this isn't a disaster yet

                       but it will be if Baby Rage turns

                       state's evidence on us.  Make sure

                       he walks.  You're a lawyer, you

                       should be able to handle _that_.

 

 

  84   INT. COURT CORRIDOR - DAY #5                                               84

 

       Snell walks down the hall. Mayson falls into step alongside

       him.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       I'm looking for a deal.

 

                                          SNELL

                                          MAYSON

                       Shut up and listen for once,

                       Martin, you might actually learn

                       something.

 

                                          SNELL

                       Well, aren't you Frosty the Snow

                       Queen.  You got one minute.  If you

                       bore me, I'll bill you.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Those reporters, Kent and Lane? 

                       They have a Deep Throat in the

                       police department.

 

                                          SNELL

                       And this is interesting to me,

                       why...?

 

                                          MAYSON

                       At six this morning, the three of

                       us put the heat on this guy to give

                       us the names of the cops _you_

                       bribed to bungle Baby's arrest.

 

                                          SNELL

                       I'm awfully sorry, counselor, I

                       have absolutely no knowledge of

                       this.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       You've got a leak, Martin.  This

                       Deep Throat of Lois Lane's is one

                       of _your_ guys.  On Intergang's

                       payroll.

                             (off his undisguised

                              look of anger)

                       I know, you just can't trust

                       anybody, can you?  I'd say right

                       about now, you really want to get

                       rid of this guy, don't you?  Well,

                       I can make it happen.

 

                                          SNELL

                       Mayson... is the good little girl

                       crossing over to the bad side of

                       the street?

 

                                          MAYSON

                       I'm about to get seriously damaged

                       in there, Martin, we both know it.

                       I'd like a little something for my

                       trouble.

                             (he stares at the

                       Tick-tock, Martin.

 

                                          SNELL

                       How much?

 

                                          MAYSON

                       What do you pay your cops?

                       Five thousand a month, a little

                                          SNELL (V.O.)

                       ... for special favors.

 

       Snell's VOICE is coming out of a hand-held tape

       recorder/receiver.  REVEAL it's being held by Lois, wearing

       an earpiece, who grins at Clark and gives him thumbs up.

 

                                          CLARK

                       Your plan worked?

 

                                          LOIS

                       My plan worked.  Oooh, I just love

                       saying those words.

 

 

  86   INT. COURT - DAY                                                           86

 

       Lois' recorder sits on the Judge's bench, now being played

       for the entire court to hear.

 

                                          SNELL (V.O.)

                       We can probably do a little better

                       for you, I mean you _are_ a college

                       graduate, so how about seven thou a

                       month?

 

       The Judge shuts the machine off and glares up at Snell, who

       stands next to a slyly smiling Mayson.

                                          SNELL (CONT'D)

                       Your Honor, it's clear to me that

                       the voice on that recording is that

                       of an actor, hired to impersonate

                       me.

 

                                          JUDGE

                       Really.  I'd like to hear his

                       Brando.  But for the moment, we're

                       going to assume that was you...

                       which does not bode well for your

                       future as an  attorney, or a free

                       man.  As for the defendant, Daniel

                       Anthony Bell AKA, Baby Rage --

                       You're going to trial.

 

       Lois and Clark smile at one another.  The judge POUNDS his

       gavel and exits as everyone gets to their feet.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Sorry, Martin. Better luck next

                       time.

 

       Uncle Mike breaks through the crowd and embraces Lois.

       Clark looks on and smiles.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       So sweetie, you hungry?

       They're in elegant evening wear, at a magnificent buffet,

       under a sign saying:  URBAN REDEVELOPMENT FUND CHARITY BALL.

       Clark is beside Lois, already digging into his plate.

 

                                          LOIS

                       Uncle Mike, everybody's raving

                       about the food.

 

                                          CLARK

                       They're all asking about your

                       restaurant.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       things are turning around.

                                          UNCLE MIKE (CONT'D)

                       No more gangs, no more slow cops,

                       thanks to those articles you two

                       wrote...

 

                                          CLARK

                       ... and the DA's new Strike

                                          LOIS

                       ... which was prompted by...

 

                                          CLARK

                       ... those articles we wrote.

 

                                          LOIS

                       I guess whoever's behind Intergang

                       doesn't like the spotlight much.

 

       Bill Church, in an old rumpled tux, glides by and gives Mike

       a thumbs up.

 

                                          UNCLE MIKE

                       Now there's a great guy.

 

                                          LOIS

                       Sorry, Uncle Mike, but you're

                       wrong.

                             (to Clark)

                       And we're going to prove it,

       Perry comes up to a sulking Jimmy.

 

                                          PERRY

                       Well, son, can I meet her?

 

                                          JIMMY

                       Sure.  Just hop a plane to

                       Switzerland.  That's where her new

                       boyfriend lives.  The one who

                       cheered her up when I was ignoring

                       her.

                       needs at a time like this?

                       A baseball bat and an alibi.

                                          PERRY

                       A philosophy.  Love is like a big

                       casino.  Flashing lights, free

                       drinks and Wayne Newton.  A lot to

                       distract a player from what it's

                       really all about:  games of chance.

                       Fate.  Layin' your money down and

                       hopin' luck's your lady that night.

                       But sometimes when you roll them

                       big dice at Casino love... you crap

                       out.

 

 

  90   A DARK CORNER                                                              90

 

       of the party, Bill Church stands alone.  Mayson approaches.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       There's something I need to know,

                       Bill.

 

                                          CHURCH

                       This sounds like it's going to be a

                       professional question.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       We're bringing charges against

                       Martin Snell.  I thought I'd ask

                       you first, off the record, if you

                       have any business dealings with

                       him.

 

                                          CHURCH

                       I'll tell you on the record.  No.

                       I'm not doing any business with

                       Martin.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Sorry.  I had to ask.

 

                                          CHURCH

                       Of course you did, dear.

                             (a fatherly kiss)

                       Now you go enjoy the party.

 

       She moves off.  Church reaches into his jacket pocket and

       pulls out what looks like a cigarette case.  He opens it and

       it reveals itself to be a miniature TV screen and computer

       keypad.  He punches buttons and

 

 

  91   ON MINI-SCREEN - A ROOM                                                    91

 

       in a government building somewhere.  At the conference

       table, TWO FEDERAL PROSECUTORS and SEVERAL FBI AGENTS.

                                          SNELL

                             (ON SCREEN)

                       All right, you want to know who the

                       head of Intergang is?  I'll tell

                       you.  It's --

 

 

  92   BACK ON CHURCH - CLOSE UP                                                  92

 

       He hits a button as a tinny BOOM comes out of the screen in

       his hand, along with a WHITE FLASH that lights his face

       until he closes the case and heads away from the party,

       swallowed up by the inky shadows of the city.

 

 

  93   OUT ON THE DANCE FLOOR                                                     93

 

       Lois and Clark move to a slow song.  Mayson walks up.

 

                                          MAYSON

                       Lois?  Mind if I cut in?

 

       Clark looks at Lois, dreading her comeback but Lois just

       smiles graciously and steps aside.

 

                                          LOIS

                             (stepping away)

                       Of course not.

 

                                          MAYSON

                             (stepping in)

                       Thanks.

 

       Clark and Mayson dance as Lois moves off and is suddenly

       swept up into Perry's arms.

 

                                          PERRY

                       I warn you -- I dip suddenly and

                       deeply.

 

                                          LOIS

                       blame her?  And I think what you

                       said is right...

       She's still in her evening gown, eating ice cream out of the

       container and listening to something slow and romantic on

       the stereo.  She does a little dance alone, then as she

       turns, is startled to see Superman at her window.

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       I just dropped in to say, thanks

                       for your advice the other night.

 

                                          LOIS

                       You're welcome...

                             (smiles)

                       ... Officer.  My uncle keeps wanting

                       me to find out who that cop was so

                       he can bake him a cake.

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       Well, tell him I retired from the

                       force but I'll still be looking out

                       for him...  and you, too.

 

                                          LOIS

                       I know.

 

       He starts to go.

 

                                          LOIS (CONT'D)

                       Would you... like to dance?

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       That sounds nice.

 

       She moves close.  He takes her in his arms.  They dance,

       faces close, eyes lost in each other.

 

                                          SUPERMAN (CONT'D)

                       I like this song.

 

                                          LOIS

                                          SUPERMAN

                       This isn't dancing.

                       It's not?

 

                                          SUPERMAN

                       This is.

 

       And as the MUSIC CRESECNDOS, he lifts her into the air.
