Superman (1996) s02e06 Episode Script
Identity Crisis
-Hang on, Tommy.
-Just climb down.
I'm scared.
I can't move.
-What if he dies? -I'm not telling his mom.
-Look.
It's Superman.
-Tommy, Superman's coming.
-He's gonna help.
-It's okay now.
I've got you.
All right.
Who wants to explain what you were doing up there? -They dared me.
-We didn't think you'd do it.
I know it's tough to turn down a dare but sometimes being brave means using your head not doing something dangerous because others pressure you.
You're right, Superman.
I'll be smarter next time.
Yeah.
Thanks, Superman.
Okay, then.
Bye-bye.
-What a dork.
-ls not.
-Of course he is, with that corny speech.
-Be quiet.
He's not.
-Little whiner.
-Shut up.
-Hey, Superman.
-We love you, big guy.
Get your hands up! -Take a wrong step, Mr.
Kent? -What? Clark! Thanks.
Superman.
Maybe you two should leave the dirty work to the authorities.
-l.
-Yeah, right.
Have you ever known me to play it safe? I suppose not.
We should have a word about that.
Maybe over dinner? Fine with me.
Eight o'clock? -Meet you on the roof of the Planet.
-It's a date.
A date? Must be this new perfume.
-Hey, Smallville.
You all right? -Yeah.
A little shaken up, I guess.
You go on ahead, Lois, I feel like walking it off.
Are you nuts? We're miles from nowhere.
What about the story? You know us country bumpkins.
Ten miles to school and all that.
Your loss.
My byline.
Thanks, Superman.
We're okay from here.
Excuse me.
I know you're a busy guy, but I am dying to get your autograph.
Okay, who are you? What's the game? There's no point keeping up the act with me.
-The question is, who are you? -Let me guess.
This is all a distraction to keep me busy.
If you say so.
But I should warn you, your makeup's rubbing off.
This-- This is a trick.
How are you doing this? Answer me! Whoever you are, you don't look so good.
Leave me alone.
I have a problem.
My friend, I would call that an understatement.
But he looked like me.
I no understand.
It's all right.
Calm down.
How? How could he? I'm Superman.
Me.
-Me.
-What's happening to him? -Why isn't he following my orders? -I warned you.
The alien DNA was unlike anything we'd cloned before.
It must be breaking down.
I say we abort.
Activate the auto-destruct.
Get rid of them all while we can.
We're not scrapping the project for one glitch.
Take this opportunity to learn, doctor.
Study him for the sake of the others.
Come.
Let's look you over.
What going on? Me am Superman.
Yes.
Yes, of course you are.
At least his programmed memories are holding.
Although the damage has clearly affected some parts of his brain.
No kidding.
What am me? Bizarro, that's what you am.
Mercy.
-Bizarro? That not my name.
-lf the shoe fits, handsome.
No, me am Superman.
Me am hero.
Me show you.
That's coming out of your pay.
There.
Me save building.
Don't ask me.
I just catch them.
Me fix bridge.
That prove me Superman.
-What the heck is he doing? -I can't slow it in time, sir.
It not break again.
No! You am no Superman.
Me am Superman.
You leave me alone.
So now I'm ruining his day.
I wasn't sure you'd really come.
Me remember.
Me need Lois help.
Don't be afraid.
Me never hurt you.
I heard about our date, Lois.
Problem is, you made it with the wrong guy.
Imposter.
Stay back, Lois.
Me protect you.
Lois.
Don't worry.
Me save Lois.
Me always save Lois.
Me hero.
Me have memories.
Me know am Superman but other Superman make me confused.
Me come to Lois because Lois friend.
I had a late lunch.
Which I'm about to lose.
So, Superman, tell me about these memories.
What is it you remember? Girl at lab call me Bizarro, but that not right.
Me am Superman.
-Did you say lab? -ln mountain, where me born.
Me show Lois.
Me like take Lois for ride.
Sure.
But use the door this time.
Okay.
This am home.
Cozy.
Oh, my God.
This is some kind of cloning operation.
Someone's making duplicates of Superman.
Not someone.
Me.
It was a freak dressed as Superman.
He burst in here with a woman and scared everyone away.
They just sat there for a few minutes and then they took off.
But that not right.
Me am Superman.
Did you say lab? In mountain, where me born.
What direction were they headed? I trust you remember Superman's run-in with a mechanical dinosaur? How could I forget? He was so weak from the Kryptonite, our "Man of Steel" actually bled.
My technicians collected a few drops from the floor and from that humble beginning, we have this.
Your own army of Supermen.
All programmed to answer to me.
A charming image, except for this technical difficulty.
No.
Them no Superman.
Me am Superman.
Me am hero.
Sorry, my friend, but you am toast.
No! Since it's too late to save the others, we should clean house.
Engage the auto-destruct.
Mercy, start the chopper.
There.
We've got two minutes.
You can't just leave him like this.
You're welcome to stay.
Though I wouldn't advise it.
Decide quickly, Lois.
The ride leaves now.
Where think you going? You not get away from Superman.
Now, no one leave.
He's destroyed the terminal.
I can't cancel the auto-destruct.
Superman, we've gotta get out.
You.
Me kill you.
She meant now, Superman.
We're sitting on top of a half kiloton of explosives.
Enough, I presume, to destroy even you.
Now.
Run! Superman.
Superman save Lois? My leg.
Me hold.
You go.
Me no am Superman.
You am Superman.
Superman, save Lois.
You are a hero.
Do you think he survived? I don't know.
I've never been in a half-kiloton blast.
I hope he did.
He turned out to have a good heart.
Well, naturally.
He came from good stock.
