The Adventures of Superboy (1988) s02e23 Episode Script

Revenge from the Deep

So, did you say
you were from around here?
No, I'm from down under.
Australia?
No, um, just
down under.
Okay.
The name's Charlie.
Charlie?
As in
Charlie the Tuna?
Yeah.
Come, it is
time for us to go.
I've told you
before, Ariana,
I've decided
to stay.
You know better, Avar,
we don't belong.
We are not
meant to be here.
What did she
call you, Charlie?
I'm very happy
here, Ariana.
I have every
desire to stay here.
Desire is a weakness
we are not permitted.
Not with
their kind.
Listen, Charlie,
or whatever your name is,
I have to go.
Come with me.
Why are you
doing this to me?
To us?
I need to get away from
you, Ariana.
You and I
are soul mates.
We belong together.
No.
Not this time.
Not this time.
Are you sure you
put batteries
in this thing?
Yeah you go ahead
and laugh.
When I find gold
that smile is gonna be
wiped right
off your face.
Well, I have to admit
you did find a penny
back there
about an hour ago.
That, that was
pretty good.
It's a sensitive piece
of equipment.
It's state
of the art, okay?
You see I read
this book that
pirates buried gold all
along these beaches
and I'm gonna
be the one to find it.
Yes siree, me.
Ha!
This is it.
How can you tell?
Listen.
This is it.
I know this is it.
Here kid, trade.
Oh, I have a good
feeling about this.
Clark is gonna be
upset that he missed this.
He he he.
Andy, you're
a man possessed.
Yo ho ho.
Treasure, here I come.
Oh, baby, I know
you're here.
Don't let me down.
I'm really
sorry I'm late, but--
I found it!
I'm rich!
I'm rich!
Thanks, kid.
I found--I found captain
kidd's buried treasure.
Ha ha!
Clark, help me
with this.
Come on.
Come on, Clark,
help me out, man.
I found gold
in this thing.
Come on, man!
Now, all you need
is a boat.
Ha, very funny.
Well, you never know,
with a little oil
you might
get it working.
Oh great.
Son, you're gonna
have to get that junk
off the beach.
Littering carries
a $50 fine.
See you back
at the dorm, man.
Tonight you can
buy the pizza.
Never.
Bye.
Hi, Lana.
Why are you
dressed like that, Lana?
Are you okay, Lana?
I mean--
Lana!
Would you tell me
where I can find
a man named Charlie?
That good
for nothing?
You don't want
anything to do
with him, sweetheart.
Where does
he live?
He lives
in the Marina.
What are you
some kind of snob, or what?
Still no answer.
It's not like
Lana to stay out all night.
Well, Clark, maybe
she met some guy,
and they took a moonlit
stroll and then they ended up
just watching
the sunrise.
You're not jealous,
are you?
Shh, shh.
-Listen.
-With a bar full of men
unable to stop her.
Described as a beautiful
throwback to the '60s this--
I'm gonna go see
if I could find Lana.
And left the bar
in a shambles--
Well, I would go with you,
but I have this date
with Vanna.
Nobody talks to me that
way, no--
You love it, babe.
You know you do.
Excuse me, I'm Clark Kent,
Shuster Herald.
I'm here to do
a follow-up story
on the girl that
was here yesterday.
Hey, stud muffin,
I don't remember
seeing you
here before.
I usually don't
hang out in places like this.
Well, what brings
you here?
I'm here to get a lead
on the girl
that was
here yesterday.
Forget that witch.
You don't need her,
you got me now.
Like hell he does.
I'm gonna
stick you like a pig.
Tiny, no!
Enough!
Enough!
You're worse than that
psycho dame!
She went lookin'
for old Charlie
at the Marina.
Charlie?
He lives in a dump of a
houseboat.
Thanks.
I'd be glad to pay
for part of the damage.
Just get out of my bar
and don't come back.
That's payment enough.
Tiny.
Tiny.
Bar.
Table.
My lamp.
Help me, please.
Who are you?
I live here.
Will you
help me?
Well, whatever it is
it can't be as bad
as all that now,
can it?
If you wanna talk,
I'm willing to listen.
I'm sure you're willing
to do far more than that, Avar.
Ariana?
Ariana.
Can it be?
Is that
really you?
Your folly has
cost you dearly.
We're nothing more
than a withered shell.
Yes, but I've learned
so much from being
amongst these
surface dwellers.
When they love each other
they remain separate
and independent
and free.
You know better.
We are soul mates
meant to be one.
It is the only
form of love that sustains us.
But you cast a spell
that kept me
from becoming
a human again.
You deserted me forever!
No.
It was not forever.
For what it's worth
I always planned
to come back
for you someday.
Oh.
Well, I've been
making plans, too
For revenge.
Ahoy!
Clark Kent,
Shuster Herald.
Yeah, what can I--
what can I
do for you?
Would you be Charlie?
Some people call
me that, yeah.
I'm looking for a young
lady who wrecked
the anchor bar yesterday.
Somebody told me
I could find her here.
You know her?
It's Lana lang,
a friend of mine.
A good friend.
Lana?
I am Ariana.
Lana is under
my control now.
What's going
on here?
I channeled my essence
through the first person
that found me.
Lana, it's meClark.
Clark.
Don't let me
hurt you.
I don't wanna
hurt anyone.
No more talk!
Now there's
only revenge!
Ariana.
Lana!
Clark!
You've killed
a surface dweller.
He was fortunate.
But your fate
will be less kind.
I never
stopped loving you.
But you did.
You left me.
Superboy.
I've learned
all about you from Lana.
Whoever you are,
you've got no right
to take a life.
Do you really think
your powers will stop me?
Fight her, Superboy.
It's the only way
you'll save yourself,
and Charlie.
What have I done?
It's all my fault.
The surface dwellers
intrigued us.
Ariana and I became
humans for a moon cycle,
but I decided
to stay.
She protested,
so I had to abandon her.
Her heartbeat's
slowing down.
She's dying.
Her spirit depleted
itself fighting you.
She's given up.
She's ready
to die.
You can't take her!
I want her back!
Superboy,
it is hopeless!
Ariana can't
be alone!
She thinks we're never
gonna be together again.
I'm sorry, Superboy.
I can't
fight her anymore.
I'm withering.
No, you're not.
I won't
let you go, Lana!
I want you back.
I love you.
Avar.
The bond between
these two was so strong,
it brought the human
back from the brink of death.
Perhaps there's still
hope for us.
Lana, are you
still there?
Does that answer
your question?
Ariana's ready
to go back now.
After we get back can you
drop us off in the sea?
I'll be back.
