1 EXT. STREET - DAY #1 1
We're on the street outside the Daily Planet. The street's
been closed off to vehicular traffic because there's a
street fair going on. It's a Daily Planet-sponsored charity
fund raiser. We find LOIS and CLARK at a cotton candy
stand. Clark pays for two cotton candies, hands one to
Lois, who looks at it askance.
LOIS
My parents wouldn't let me have
these.
CLARK
Ever? You've never had cotton
candy?
They're moving now, walking slowly along the line of booths
and attractions. Beyond them is a bandstand. No musicians
yet; workmen are setting up the amps and the large
instruments.
LOIS
(quoting her father)
'The girl's hyperactive enough,
Ellen. Don't feed her dyed (X)
sugar.'
(grins engagingly) (X)
I eat cotton candy every chance I (X)
get. (X)
They come into range of JIMMY.
JIMMY
Step right up, folks. One dollar,
one measly dollar to learn your
future. Madame Blavatsky knows
all, sees all, tells all.
LOIS
(ragging him)
How much of my dollar goes to
charity?

From inside the tent:
PERRY (O.S.)
Olsen!
JIMMY
-- her voice.
PERRY (O.S.)
Is that Lois I hear?
PERRY, aka Madame Blavatsky, sticks his head out of the tent
opening. Makeup, diaphanous scarves. He holds up one
hand, from which garishly colored fake fingernails dangle.
PERRY (CONT'D)
(to Lois)
How do you keep these things from
falling off? Why in thunder do you
women do this to yourselves?
He disappears back into the tent. Lois hands her cotton
candy to Clark.
LOIS
You'll be here when I come back
out, right? You're not having a
sudden urge to return a video or
put money in the meter or buy new
shoelaces, are you?
PERRY (O.S.)
Lois! Get in here!
Lois disappears into the tent to deal with the peevish
Madame Blavatsky's fingernails. Clark and Jimmy gaze
silently at the closed tent flap, then Jimmy grabs Clark's
arm and gets intense:
JIMMY
(softly)
This is your idea of a date? You
think Scardino takes her to silly
street fairs and buys her cotton
candy?
CLARK
I don't care what Scardino does.
DAN SCARDINO has come up behind them.
DAN
Hi, guys.
They turn.

DAN (CONT'D)
Lois around?
He and Clark square off.
CLARK
(to Dan)
She's with me.
Clark looks kind of silly standing there holding two cotton
candies. Dan smiles. He _likes_ competition.
DAN
Yeah?
CLARK
Yeah.
They're sort of nose to nose. At this moment Lois emerges
from the tent, stops on seeing them. She looks from one to
the other of them.
DAN
Like a date?
CLARK
Yeah. Like a date. Where she and
I are together for a certain amount
of time doing stuff with each other
as a couple. Where she's with me
and I'm with her.
At this unfortunate moment, we HEAR:
VOICE
(panicky)
Look out! Oh, my God! Look out!
They all look in the direction of:
2 THE BANDSTAND 2
where a huge amp, elevated above the platform, is teetering,
about to fall to the stage below. Directly beneath it is
CALVIN DREGG, guitarist, a legend in his own mind. He has
on earphones, which are connected to his electric guitar,
which he's tuning. He's oblivious.
3 WITH LOIS, CLARK AND DAN 3
Lois and Dan are looking toward-the shouting. Clark slips
away.

4 AT THE BANDSTAND 4
SUPERMAN whisks Calvin Dregg out of harm's way just as the
amp crashes to the stage, right where Calvin was standing.
5 BEHIND THE BANDSTAND 5
Superman floats down to the ground, sets Calvin down.
Calvin seems dazed. Superman looks him over.
SUPERMAN
I'm glad I was nearby.
He's eager to leave, but now a woman, ELISE CARR, comes
running up to them. She's clearly distraught, near tears.
Superman can't leave just yet.
ELISE
Oh, thank you, Superman. Oh,
Calvin, Calvin! Thank God! Are
you okay?
SUPERMAN
He's a little dazed, miss, but
he'll be fine.
Superman starts to leave again, but:
CALVIN
(to Superman)
Fine? Fine?!
(to Elise)
He broke my hand, Elise! Just when
I get my big break in show
business, this baboon busts my
hand!
(to Superman)
Take me to the hospital right now,
I mean it!
Superman blinks. Try to be nice, what does it get you?
6 WITH LOIS AND DAN 6
Lois and Dan are standing where we left them. Presumably
they've been watching the drama at the bandstand. Now they
turn back toward the booth. Lois registers that Clark's not
there.
LOIS
Clark?
Lois may not be pleased, but Dan is.

7 EXT. STREET FAIR - DAY 7
Lois and Dan are sitting at a sidewalk table with the
remains of a fast-food meal. They are not having fun.
LOIS
He probably had a good reason.
DAN
Sure he did. He's a wuss. (X)
(off her look)
I'm sorry, Lois, the guy just
brings it out in me. I don't
understand what you see in him.
LOIS
He's... nice. He's kind. He's
patient...
DAN
I thought you were mad at him.
LOIS
I'm mad at both of you.
DAN
Me? Why me?
LOIS
Because you deliberately horned in
on my date with Clark. Because you
tried to make him look bad.
DAN
I didn't have to try very hard.
She's on a roll.
LOIS
Because you think sending gifts
solves everything. Because you
won't talk to me about your work.
DAN
Whoa, Lois, you know that's not
personal.
He turns it back on Clark:

can. Can you say that about Clark
Kent? I mean, he's the one you had
a date with. Where is he?
8 EXT. HOSPITAL - DUSK 8
Superman, Calvin and Elise exit the hospital. Calvin's
wearing a cast on his hand. He's upset, and he's hogging
the conversation:
CALVIN
(at Superman)
I'm a musician, I'm an artist, I
need both my hands, what would Jimi
Hendrix have been with one hand?
I'll tell you what: He'd have been
nobody, held have been nothing,
he'd have been --
ELISE
Alive. You're alive, Calvin, and
you're going to be fine.
Calvin turns his whining invective on Elise.
CALVIN
You don't understand anything!
You're a waitress, for God's sake!
You serve slabs of dead cows to fat
businessmen. You wouldn't know (X)
art if it jumped up and bit your (X)
kneecap! (X)
Though Elise probably hears this crap seventeen times a day,
it still has the power to wound. She looks like she might
cry. Superman intervenes:
SUPERMAN
People who love each other should
be kind to each other.
CALVIN
What are you, a greeting card on (X)
steroids? You fly around putting (X)
your nose into other people's (X)
business. Who asked you? (X)

I've never been sorry I saved
anyone's life, Mr. Dregg. I'd hate
to start now.

ELISE
Please go. He won't calm down till
you go.
Superman is conflicted about leaving her alone with this troll.
ELISE (CONT'D)
I'll be okay. Really. And thank
you.
Superman nods and flies off. After him:
CALVIN
You ruined my life!
9 EXT. STREET FAIR - NIGHT #1 9
Clark appears at the street fair. It's over. There's
nobody around except some workers pushing brooms and
breaking down booths.
10 EXT. ANOTHER STREET - NIGHT 10
Lois and Dan, walk and talk.
DAN
It's not some dumb guy thing,
Lois. I'm a federal agent, you're
a reporter. Our professional
loyalties conflict. Not to mention
the fact that if you know too much
about what I'm doing, you could be
in danger.
LOIS
Oh, excuse me, and you have to
protect the little woman?
Dan gazes at her for a moment, then:

Sometimes...

I don't need protection.

11 INT. DR. FRISKIN'S OFFICE - DAY #2 11(X)
The hyperactive Lois Lane is pacing back and forth in DR.
FRISKIN's office.
LOIS
I want one man. One whole man. Is
that so much to ask? And what do I
have to choose from? There's one
guy who could be really wonderful
only he disappears every time I try
to talk to him, and one guy who's
exciting to be with only he won't
talk to me about his work and what
do people talk about if they can't
talk about what they did all day,
and one guy who's out of this
world... literally.
DR. FRISKIN
I thought you'd given up the
Superman fantasy.
LOIS
My head wants to. My heart is, um,
conflicted.
DR. FRISKIN
So it would seem.
Lois sits.
LOIS
Can we go over my options?
DR. FRISKIN
Well, your current options are one
wonderful guy who's apparently
afraid of commitment, one exciting
guy who apparently wants to control
the conversation, and one superhero
who's apparently unattainable. Or
it could be that none of them is
right for you.
There's silence, then:

Dr. Friskin smiles.
DR. FRISKIN
Sometimes we can't really hear what
we're saying unless someone
reflects it back.
Lois still can't hear it. She's stuck on:
LOIS
They just all make me so mad!
DR. FRISKIN
And what do you think you might
want to do about that?
Off Lois' reaction...
12 INT. DAILY PLANET - DAY 12
Lois is at her desk. She's copying some names and numbers
from her Rolodex when Clark comes up with two cups of
coffee. He holds one out to her. She ignores it and
ignores him.
CLARK
Lois...
Jimmy's walking by.
LOIS
(to Jimmy)
Did you hear something, Jimmy?
JIMMY
(stops)
Like what?
LOIS
It sounded a little like my name.
You didn't say 'Lois,' did you?
Uh-oh.

I didn't. Clark did.

She wheels on him, overrides him:
LOIS
What? No, don't say a word, allow
me: 'Lois, I can explain, I
suddenly remembered that my
mother's sister's poodle needed a
haircut and so you can see why I
had to leave you in the middle of a
date with your thumb in your ear
but I'm sure you understand.' How
am I doing so far, Clark?
Without waiting for an answer, she turns her back on him and
dials a phone number. From a distance, Perry watches as
Clark goes to his desk and sits.

15 EXT. CALVIN DREGG'S HOUSE - DAY 15
Actually, it's not Calvin's house, since Calvin has no way
to pay rent, since Calvin is too artistically pure to take a
job for mere money. It's Elise's house. Calvin is sitting
in a chair by the window, watching TV. He's suffering, and
not in silence, as he scratches the itch underneath his cast
with a long skinny stick.
CALVIN
My hand itches, Elise. And it
hurts.
Elise comes out the front door, dressed in a waitress
uniform.
16 INSERT - TV 16
Calvin is watching the Nature Station. The host, MARLIN (X)
PFINCH-LUPUS, is intoning...

CALVIN
You're not going to work?! What if

She scurries out. Calvin is alone with his sour expression
and his shriveled soul. From the TV he HEARS:
BARRY BARKER (V.O.)
Have you been injured?
He whips his head toward the TV.

Calvin doesn't like the way this is going.
CALVIN
Excuse me. This is about me.
BARRY BARKER
Of course it is, my boy. I know
that. I never lose sight of the
true objective.
He's risen from his desk and has nudged Calvin out of his
chair and is now escorting him to the door as he talks.
BARRY BARKER (CONT'D)
I'll take your case, and it won't
cost you a cent, I'll be working
absolutely on contingency, forty
percent of the settlement when we
win.
CALVIN
Forty percent?
BARRY BARKER
Could you ask the receptionist to
step in here, please?
He shuts the door on Calvin, stands there with his mind
racing.
BARRY BARKER (CONT'D)

He's a happy man. There's a timid KNOCK on the door, then
it opens to reveal the RECEPTIONIST, a little old lady.

It comes out weak. Barker grimaces.
BARRY BARKER
Louder, Mother.
MA BARKER

It's still weak. Barker loosens his grip on the waistband,
and the old lady teeters, her eyes widening in terror.

Barker wasn't really going to let her fall. He now has a
good grip on her again.

Superman appears, quickly maneuvers the old lady off the
ledge and back into the office. He turns a stern eye on
Barry Barker.

DAN
Hello. I'm doing a survey of women

them. Please answer 'true' or
'false': Wrapping paper offends
me... I am psychologically unable

I just don't like the guy who sent
then...
He's being very charming, but Lois has her own agenda:

It's not about gifts, Dan. It's

Dan was really hoping the charm would work, but he can see
it's a forlorn hope. He sighs.

Lois is entering the room with a tray: coffee and cookies.
As she sets it down on the coffee table:
LOIS
That's what I'm saying, Dan. You
don't trust me.

conversation:
DAN
I think you're looking for
something that doesn't exist, Lois.
The perfect man, the perfect
relationship, the perfect life...
Will you excuse me for a minute?
He takes a cel phone out of his pocket and walks away to get
a little privacy.

Nirvana?
Dan's antennae go up. He turns.

The perfect life. Nirvana. Eden.
Utopia. Camelot.
Dan relaxes. Must've been a fluke.
DAN

Yeah... Those places don't exist,
Lois. The real world is what we
have to deal with.
And here comes the real world, Metropolis style. Superman
appears at the window, behind Dan. He's holding the summons
that Barry Barker served. Dan sees Lois' eyes shift to the
window, and he feels the breeze. He turns. Neither he nor
Superman is pleased to see the other.

I've never been sued before. I'm

33 INT. CONSTANCE HUNTER'S OFFICE - DAY #3 33
Superman sits across from CONSTANCE HUNTER. She's fortyish.
Her office is dark -- blinds closed, sunlight struggling to
get in but losing the battle, a single desk lamp lit. Lots
of law books, both current and old, line the walls.
Constance is calm and focused and kind. She's listened
empathetically to Superman's story, which is winding up now.
SUPERMAN
... His hand will heal, and since
he has no job, there's no loss of
income.
CONSTANCE
So except for his medical bills, he
has no case...
SUPERMAN
Yes, and I offered to pay the
medical expenses.
CONSTANCE
What was his response?
Superman smiles.
SUPERMAN
He seems to have only one response
to everything: He complained.
Constance smiles back.
CONSTANCE
I know the type. _They_ want,
_they_ need, _they_ deserve.
Nothing is ever right, and nothing
is ever enough. They stand alone
at the center of the universe
whining for more. Their hunger is
insatiable, their thirst
unquenchable, their demands
unappeasable... I really hate them.

34 INT. DAILY PLANET - DAY 34
Lois is at her desk. In front of her is a pad with a phone
number written on it, a number we've seen before: 555-0373.
Lois dials the number. After a couple of RINGS:
PHONE VOICE
(recorded)
You have reached the office of
Charles Knox, president of
Omnicorp. Please leave your name,
number and the purpose of your
call. Thank you for calling
Omnicorp.
There's a BEEP. Lois hangs up, looks over to another part
of the room, where Perry and Jimmy are watching one of
several TV sets.
35 CLOSE ON A TV 35
we're watching Congress in session, but what we're HEARING
is...
PFINCH-LUPUS (V.O.)
... and so we see that spineless
dung beetles tend toward thinly
veiled power struggles, apparently
having little regard for the colony
as a whole...
As we're HEARING this, we're PANNING over to Perry and Jimmy
to find that the voice over is coming, not from C-SPAN, but
from The Nature Station, which they're watching. (X)
PFINCH-LUPUS (T.V.)
Next we go to the fascinating
Andean Nettlebug, a species with
three genders; male, female and the
sexless drone. The drones seem to
serve a matchmaking function unique
in the insect kingdom, and a
thankless job it is for them...

Knox. He's the president.
JIMMY
Okay.

Now I'm going out to investigate
this guy who's suing Superman.
PERRY
Okay.
Lois leaves. Jimmy and Perry remain riveted to the TV.
PFINCH-LUPUS (T.V.)

mates only once, with tragic
consequences for all concerned.
But the species survives and
thrives, and the little newly

them...

Lois sits down at the table next to him. Elise arrives and
sits across from Calvin.
CALVIN

ELISE
Yes.
She's reaching into her capacious bag, pulls out a Watchman

Aha, so that's what it's about. Elise still doesn't see it.
ELISE
Yes, Calvin.
Lois can hardly keep from horning in. Unfortunately for

Hi, Lois.
Lois turns a look on him that would shrivel a lesser man.

JERRY (T.V.) (X)

We tried to contact Superman to
hear his side of the story...

answerable to the law.

him.
CALVIN
Shhh! Shhh!
CALVIN (T.V.)
According to the doctor my attorney
found for me, I have permanent
nerve damage, I'll never play the
guitar again.
GROANS of sympathy from the audience. Lois is watching the
TV, her head turned away from Clark, who has had just about
all of Calvin Dregg that he can take.
CALVIN (T.V.)
And Superman didn't even apologize.
That's it. Clark lowers his glasses and aims his HEAT

LOIS
The truth. I'm at the point now

Trapped. Trapped like a fly in a sticky web. At this
moment, we hear, from somewhere O.S., a faintish SQUEAL OF

Late. Lois walks back to her front door. Dan is sitting on

DAN
Hey.
LOIS
Hey.
DAN
I thought about what a jerk I
was...
LOIS
Dan...
DAN
Thought given the _size_ of my
jerkiness... maybe roses... maybe
jewelry... maybe a Lear jet...
LOIS
We both overreacted.
DAN
I didn't bring you anything, Lois,
because I don't want to dazzle
you... I just want to be with you.
So. Can we... talk?
He gestures to the door.

Sure.

88 INT. DR. FRISKIN'S OFFICE - DAY 88
Lois and Dr. Friskin, in mid-session.
LOIS
So what you're saying is, all my
life I've basically been attracting
men who are controlling or
incomplete or downright liars
because... because...
DR. FRISKIN
Keep going.
LOIS
... because I like being treated
like that? But wait, then how come
if I like this kind of man and I
always seem to set this kind of
man, I'm not happy?
DR. FRISKIN
You like chocolate, right? But you

90 INT. COURT ROOM - DAY 90
Moments before Superman's trial. On one side of the bar,
Calvin and Barker; behind them, in the gallery, Elise. On
the other side, Superman and Constance; behind them in the
gallery, Perry, Jimmy, Dan and Lois. The room is packed,
dotted with PEOPLE in neck braces, slings and bandages.
LOIS
(studying the faux
infirm)
Look at this... the next wave of
injured plaintiffs.
(shakes head)
Amazing. Superman's spent his
whole career fighting
mega-criminals and he's getting
brought down by a mealy-mouthed
talk show whiner and his
sycophantic mouthpiece.
PERRY
Says just a little too much about
the society we live in right now.
LOIS
(looks around)
Where's Clark?
PERRY
He told me he was going to
Smallville for a few days.
LOIS
Why?
PERRY
Got a few personal things to take
care of. I'm a little worried
about him. Hasn't been himself
lately.
Lois tries to hide the effect of another disappointment.
Perry leans over and whispers to Jimmy:
PERRY (CONT'D)
See The Nature Station last night? (X)
JIMMY
(nods)
The Male Blue-Headed Whipperwill
always returns to its birth nest...
PERRY
... after an unsuccessful attempt
at mating.

Both men nod sagely and glance at Lois. Dan, sitting beside
her, takes her hand.
JIMMY
Then you've got your Rain Forest
Koka Monkey...
PERRY
... movin' in on the female the
_second_ the male's in another
tree.
JIMMY
We're just this far --
(holds fingers an inch
apart)
-- from the jungle, huh, Chief?
PERRY
If that, son, if that.
Sitting at the bar, Superman glances back and sees Dan
holding Lois's hand. He tries not to let it hurt. Lois
sees the look on his face. Their eyes meet for a second,
she's curious, then... The JUDGE enters, everyone rises.
91 INT. COURT ROOM - WITNESS STAND - LATER 91
Elise on the stand, nervous, under direct exam by Barker:
ELISE
... and Calvin hasn't been able to use
his hand since.
BARKER
Completely paralyzed?
ELISE
Yes. Completely.
BARKER
And what about his moods?
ELISE
Oh, they're... mmmm, they're bad...
um, he's not himself. (X)
The Judge glances at Calvin. Calvin slumps low in his chair
and shields his eyes with his hand, a mournful and forlorn
figure of suffering and sorrow. Lois looks at Calvin,
disgusted.
LOIS
I smell ham...
(then glares at Elise)
and cheese.

92 EXT. PARK ACROSS FROM COURT HOUSE - DAY 92
Knox with a well-dressed ASSASSIN, both kneeling in front of
an open attache case.
ASSASSIN
It's silent, no moving parts, just
two globs of liquid C-12, (X)
separated by this little piece of
plastic. Start your acid eating
through and in five minutes, (X)
whammo. Always wanted to try this (X)
little sucker... right under
Superman's nose.
We see what's in the attache case now: a high-tech bomb.
The Assassin closes the case and locks it.
KNOX
Just remember, it can't look like
Scardino and Lane were the only
targets...
ASSASSIN
It won't. (X)
They move out of the park, toward the court house.
93 INT. COURT HALL - DAY 93
A break in the proceedings. People mill. Elise gets some
water. Lois walks up.
LOIS
Can I ask you a question? How can
you lie on the stand like that for
a man who won't even admit he's
married to you?
Elise looks at her, like a deer caught in headlights.
ELISE
How... how did you... ?
LOIS
The kind of degradation you'll
tolerate in your personal life is
your business -- but you're ruining
an innocent man and I'm not going
to sit by and
ELISE
(moving off)
Leave me alone

LOIS
He doesn't love you, Elise.

You know when a man loves you by (X)
the way he treats you, by the way
he looks at you... the way he -- (X)
ELISE
Look, Miss Lane, if you've got the
perfect man, I'm happy for you but
I --
LOIS
He's about as far from perfect as
you can be but I'll tell you the
difference between him and
Calvin -- he wants my happiness
more than his own. I feel it every
second I'm with him, and sometimes
there aren't enough of those
seconds and the ones we _do_ have
end a little abruptly but Elise,
Calvin doesn't feel that way about
you and someday he'll prove it in
the ugliest way he can.
Elise, stunned, moves back to court. A man bumps her from
behind and mutters an excuse. As he slips into the
courtroom, we see it's the Assassin, with his attache case.
94 INT. COURTROOM - DAY 94
The Assassin sets his attache in the aisle near Lois and
Dan, twists the snap-lock and --
95 INSERT - INSIDE THE CASE 95
as the acid burns through the plastic separating the two
forms of liquid explosive. Smoke rises and curls.
96 INT. COURT ROOM - DAY 96
The Assassin gets up and exits the court room, just as
Superman under direct exam by Constance:
CONSTANCE
Sitting here, listening to all this
damning testimony, I'd like to
know... why do you want to _be_
Superman? It seems to me it's
never offered you much but exposure
to danger and ridicule...
(CONTINUED)
--page break--
WHINE, WHINE, WHINE (#21) FULL Blue Rev. 3/24/95 50.
96 CONTINUED: 96
SUPERMAN
No, that's not true.
CONSTANCE
Explain.
SUPERMAN
All the things I can do... the
powers I have... I've asked myself
a thousand times, why? And the
only answer I could come up with
is: to help. As quickly and
decisively as possible. And maybe
because of that, I've been a
target
(he looks at Lois)
... and maybe there are some things
I'll never have... but when I can
save a life, well... in that
instant, I know two things most (X)
people never figure out: why I'm
here and how I can make a
difference.
A hush in the courtroom. Superman cocks his head and sniffs
the air, as if smelling something for the first time.
CONSTANCE
Your witness.
CALVIN
(whispers to Barker)
Fry him.
BARKER
In oil, kid, in oil.
(rising)
Well, that was a heart-rending
speech. Can I get anybody a
tissue?
SUPERMAN
Do you smell something?
BARKER
What?
97 INSERT - INSIDE THE ATTACHE CASE 97
As the plastic burns and the two liquids begins to mix and
bubble.

WHINE, WHINE, WHINE (#21) FULL Blue Rev. 3/24/95 51.
98 INT. COURTROOM - DAY 98
Superman gets up, sniffing the air.
SUPERMAN
I've smelled it before...
BARKER
Your Honor...
SUPERMAN
I'm sorry, your Honor, but I think
what I'm smelling is C-12, it's an
explosive...
(sniffs)
... and it's burning, somewhere in
here...
BARKER
Oh, please, this is the most
disgraceful form of courtroom
theatrics I've _ever_ witnessed.
LOIS
Listen to him...
99 INSERT IN THE CASE 99
and the liquid bubbling furiously, rattling and shaking.
100 INT. COURT - DAY 100
Superman moves into the gallery, sniffing and searching.
BARKER
(getting in Superman's
face)
I suppose next you'll tell us we're
all going to die.
PERRY
Mister, you don't back off and let
him do his job, you're gonna be
suing _me_ for assault.
BARKER
I hope everyone heard that!
CALVIN
I did!
JIMMY
Naturally.

LOIS
Superman, should we evacuate the
building?
SUPERMAN
Everyone stay calm, I think... yes,
it's right...
(picks up Assassin's attache)
... here.
He opens it, revealing the bubbling, smoking bomb. PEOPLE
jump and SCREAM, startled and terrified.
ELISE
Oh, my God...
Superman hugs the bomb to him and takes off, going straight
up in a whooshing BLUE AND RED BLUR.
The sound of Superman CRASHING through the ceiling. Plaster
chunks and bits of dust cascade down. Some of it lands on
Calvin. He starts to dust it off, annoyed, then a thought
strikes Barry Barker, who nudges Calvin, and suddenly "in
agony" --
CALVIN
My eyes!
He makes a blind-man grope and tumbles over a chair. Elise
and Barker kneel to him.
BARKER
Calvin, Calvin... are you all
right? Someone get a doctor!
Then the SOUND of an ENORMOUS BLAST echoes from above.
Everyone looks up, frozen.
The doors open and Superman strides in, smoke sizzling off
his suit, holding the charred remains of the bomb in his
hands.
DAN
If I had to guess, I'd say that was
meant for me...
SUPERMAN
Agent Scardino you should have
your lab get on this.
He hands it over.
DAN
Thanks.

He bolts from the room.
LOIS
Superman, are you all right?
Before he can answer --
CALVIN
I... I can't see... the dust in my
eyes... oh, dear Lord -- I'M BLIND!
BLIND!
BARKER
Is there no end to the suffering
Superman causes?
ELISE
(suddenly rising)
Oh, shut _up_!
Barker turns to her, stunned. So does Calvin.
CALVIN
Elise...?
ELISE
I have had it with you, Calvin!
We'd be _dead_ if it wasn't for
Superman! And there's nothing
wrong with your eyes, except you
can't see anything but yourself!
BARKER
Your Honor --
ELISE
(ripping sling off)
And your arm will be fine!
(to Judge)
And he'll play guitar just as bad
as he ever did! He just wanted the
money and he got me to lie for him!
CALVIN
(trying to shush her)
Elise... honey... (X)
ELISE

determination)
You don't speak for me anymore,

JUDGE
Save it, counselor.
The Judge BANGS his gavel.
JUDGE (CONT'D)
Case dismissed.
BARKER

Do you need a lawyer?
CUT TO:
101 INT. COURT HALL - DAY 101
As the court empties out, Superman takes a moment with
Constance.
SUPERMAN
Well... I guess your losing streak
is over, Ms. Hunter.
CONSTANCE
It didn't hurt that you saved the
judge's life... tends to make him
lenient.
SUPERMAN
(holds out his hand)
Thank you for believing in me.
CONSTANCE
No, Superman... thank _you_.
They share a warm look, then she moves off. Lois walks out
of court with Elise.
ELISE
I'm sort of looking forward to
being single again... I have a
feeling there are so many
wonderful, caring, exciting men out
there, just waiting.
Lois gives Elise her best encouraging smile.

LOIS (CONT'D)
Congratulations.
She kisses his cheek and looks at him, in wonder.
SUPERMAN
What?
LOIS
I think I understand something I
didn't before. Why I don't really
know you. Why no one does. You
live..
(indicates the sky)
... above us, and when we try to
bring you down here, we just show
the worst sides of ourselves. I've
tried to love you but I realized
today how selfish that is. You're
not _just_ here for me you're
here for all of us.
(pause)
I'll always need you... and I'll
always be your friend but
there's someone down here who needs
_me_... if I can just figure out
how to get him to see it.
Another kiss on the cheek and she turns.
SUPERMAN
Lois, I need --
She stops. So does she.
SUPERMAN (CONT'D)
-- to say... thank you. For being
such a good friend.
He gives her a smile, then turns and walks down the hall.
She watches till he's gone with an O.S. WHOOSH that blows

door and opens it.
LOIS
Hi.
CLARK
Hi.
LOIS

You planning a yard sale?
(suddenly shifts gears)
Wait, wait. That's a form of
distancing. My therapist -- I
know, I have a therapist, can you
believe it? -- she says I say
things like that to distance, so we
don't really have to deal with
anything and it's very complicated

CLARK
Lois, we haven't been very happy
with each other lately. And it's
my fault and I think I should --
LOIS
Yes, it _is_ your fault. And my
fault. We let ourselves get
distracted and we let ourselves get
hurt too easily and we work too
much and we argue over stupid
things... all so we can hide from
each other and I'm sick of it,
Clark. Because the only reason we
hide is, we're scared.
CLARK
Of what?
LOIS
The fact that we're partners...
best friends... and _this_.
