"GUY:" "Hey, bro." "What's up?" "CLARK:" "Chloe, what the heck is this?" "I thought we were coming in to get a coffee." "How could you do this to me?" "I didn't know, I swear." "I'm sorry, Clark." "No, hey, you're not gonna spend the rest of your life hiding in the barn either." "Let's go." "What is it you say about Valentine's Day?" "Oh, yeah." ""Our annual sneak peek at hell."" "That must have been before Cupid struck." "After being trapped in a front seat to The Clark-Lana Operetta I deserve a good V-day?" "You're the only person who can make me feel guilty, relieved and a little sad all in one sentence." "It's a gift." "Don't worry, Clark." "Your achy breaky heart will go away too one of these days." "Can you put that in writing?" "Give the Lana thing a little more time." "You never know when the next love of your life is right around the corner." "Oh." "Is it wrong that I want these chubby cherubs to burst into flames?" "Valentine's Day is like finding out how babies are born." "LOIS:" "What?" "Just stay with me." "It's like, it seems so weird and confusing but when that bomb finally hits, everything clicks into place." "It all seems to make sense." "Jimmy." "And Lois." "Welcome to the love fest." "Yeah, and me without my Uzi." "Excuse us for just one second." "What are you doing?" "We were supposed to take Clark out tonight, remember?" "Yeah, but Lois was all alone and then it hit me." "Lois and Clark." "Lois and Clark?" "You gotta admit they got chemistry." "Yeah, so do nitroglycerin and peroxide and I don't suggest putting them together." "Come on." "[SLOW MUSIC PLAYING ON SPEAKERS]" "Please tell me we weren't just set up." "Looks like it." "Us?" "That's like hot fudge and halibut." "I take it I'm the halibut." "Naturally." "Well, I've had my fill of fat babies with arrows." "Knock yourself out, Lois." "STAR:" "Little down on love?" "After my breakup?" "Cupid could use me for target practice and I still wouldn't feel anything." "Then maybe you need a little Euphoria Elixir or Romance Remedy." "Just a nudge in order to move on." "Move on?" "You're talking to somebody who's waiting for acid-washed to come back in style." "Try this." "It's made with jasmine and a mixture of aphrodisiac oils." "I get the brilliant hue from red meteor rocks." "This is gonna make me fall in love with someone new?" "The first man you set eyes on." "Who knows?" "Maybe this color will look good on me, huh?" "Clark." "MARTHA:" "Yes, I'm calling to RSVP for the party." "Martha Kent." "Thank you." "Hi, how was the Valentine's party?" "I lived to see another day." "Clark." "Mom, really, if it's more love advice, I got my quota last night." "Trust me." "But thank you." "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "Lois?" "Is Clark here?" "Yeah." "Come in." "Hey, Lois, listen, I'm sorry Jimmy pulled you into that last night." "I mean, after Oliver and" "Oliver's history." "Actually, Mrs. K, can you give us a couple minutes?" "Yeah." "I'll be upstairs." "Here we find ourselves all alone." "Wow." "How did I never notice what big, strong hands you have?" "[CLARK CHUCKLES]" "What's going on, Lois?" "Well, you know me." "I'm not very good with words." "So" "People don't think Whitesnake sings power ballads but they do." "You made me a mix CD." "Yeah." "Well, I will kill you if you tell anyone this but there's nothing that I love more than slow dancing with some big, strong arms around me." "Just like yours, Smallville." "Lois, why don't you go put this on?" "Okay." "I know how you dance, so...." "Just in case" "Clark?" "Lana." "I'm kind of surprised to see you here." "Yeah, I know that we left things in a weird place." "Come in." "I'll take credit for the weirdness, but to be honest you're the one who did the leaving." "I was really frustrated." "Chloe, I can't afford to lose you too." "Ever since I've been with Lex I feel like I've lost everyone else in my life." "Well, are you sure it's that you lost them or were you being forced to leave them behind?" "Seems like you've been walled up in the mansion." "It's not like I'm in captivity." "Right, not in so many words but I know how protective Lex is over the things he values the most." "I know that you're just looking out for me." "You've done your maid-of-honor duty and asked the tough questions but I was hoping that we could just get past this?" "Okay." "Case closed." "Did I miss something?" ""Maid of honor"?" "Yeah." "I hope that you're not allergic to taffeta." "That's actually why I came by." "Will you stand up with me?" "Of course." "Wow." "Do we just ignore the huge elephant named Clark in the corner?" "Yeah, whatever he's hiding he chose to confide in the people that he trusts the most and as much as I wish that I was one of those people, I can't hold it against you." "I'm not gonna ask you to betray Clark's secret if you'll stop denying that he has one." "Will this holiday ever end?" "Sorry to be the culprit of such a felony-sized PDA." "We were supposed to meet 20 minutes ago." "Where have you been?" "I just" " I got stuck in traffic." "I did some digging into our favorite Martian Manhunter but it's coming up empty." "Well, we have another manhunter to worry about:" "Lois." "Why does that make me picture her wielding an ax at men in Metropolis?" "She's only after one man." "Lois is into me." "She's into you?" "What, like--?" "Wow." "She really pulled out all the stops." "She's not herself, all right?" "Like she overdosed on Love Potion number 9." "And this isn't funny." "Pretty funny." "Chloe." "We have to find out what happened before she strikes again." "Too late." "LOIS:" "There you are." "I've been searching all over for you." "Look what I got." "Maybe you could get one to match." "I think you're right about that story." "I'm gonna look into it." "Chloe" "Hi, you." "Hi." "Lois." "Now, Lois, I've got" "You can pour on the modesty all you want, Smallville." "It only makes you that much more adorable." "Lois, what happened to you when I left last night?" "I went home." "Alone." "But you know where I wanted to be." "Wow." "Well, nothing screams romance like a dusty newspaper office." "Come on, you can do better than this." "I was planning on it." "Not that I'm complaining, but isn't this a little sudden?" "I mean, all this time one kiss and all of a sudden you like me?" "No, I mean it." "This is for real, isn't it?" "Oh, yeah, this couldn't be more real." "Wait a minute." "Wait." "I knew I kissed you before." "In the alley." "You're Green Arrow." "Hardly." "I was just pretending to be so you wouldn't know it was Oliver." "Oliver?" "Oh, my God." "Those times he disappeared...." "What is my deal with emotionally unavailable weekend warriors?" "Thank God, I finally found a normal guy." "What do you mean "normal"?" "Oliver's not even the same league as me." "You don't have to be macho just for me." "I like the dorky farm boy thing." "Dorkier than a hood and a quiver?" "I don't wear a costume and splash my face..." "...all over the papers" "Clark." "So what if your signature move is driving a tractor." "I think it's adorable." "You know, Lois, I think that it's time for you to meet the real Clark Kent." "I have a surprise for you." "I thought we said no gifts for the engagement dinner." "It's not exactly for the dinner." "So I have this dilemma." "I can't decide between stegosaurus or Mr. Duck." "That's really sweet, Lex." "But don't you think it's kind of--?" "I know." "I know it's kind of early but the doctor said you're perfectly healthy." "I just don't know if it's a good idea to have all this stuff out here." "There's a lot of people around." "Nobody knows about this pregnancy, apart from Clark and Chloe." "Well, what if they did?" "I was thinking what if we announced it tonight at the party?" "I don't know if that's a great idea." "I think that tonight should be about our engagement." "It sort of feels like you're in denial." "Like if no one finds out about the baby, it doesn't exist." "Do you know how many people are looking over my shoulder second-guessing why I'm marrying you?" "Am I that hard a sell ?" "I don't want people assuming we're getting married because of this baby." "I want them to know that I'm with you because I love you." "Wow." "This is a beautiful detour, but what are we doing up here?" "That's Oliver's balcony over there, isn't it?" "What?" "That tiny speck under the clock tower?" "Clark, this isn't funny." "You can come back down now." "Or you could come up here with me." "LOIS:" "Oh!" "I'd like to see Oliver do this." "LOIS:" "Whoa!" "[LOIS LAUGHS]" "What'd you say about a dorky farm boy?" "Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound." "I can't wait to see what else you can do." "Well, I'm fast but not too fast." "You're being very bad." "The last time I was here I was with a good friend of yours." "Obviously, he wasn't that good." "I better make sure you didn't spell my name wrong." "LOIS:" "Whoo." "[GASPS]" "LOIS:" "Sounds like a real rager, doesn't it?" "Can't say I'm surprised I wasn't invited." "I RSVP'd back before Oliver headed for the hills but now I've found a better way to occupy my night." "What?" "And disappoint the future Mrs. Luthor?" "I don't think so." "Besides it's not a party until someone crashes it." "Hey, thanks for the roses." "Thanks for this." "Yeah, I don't know, I just-- It kind of seemed very you." "I love it." "But it might sit on the bench till my next style renaissance." "Or until I'm off the blacklist at the Luthor mansion." "Aren't you supposed to be leaving for Smallville in negative two minutes?" "Yeah." "But I'm gonna have to push the boundaries of fashionably late because I just got a huge lead on whatever love-nip Lois rolled in." "You just can't admit that I'm a natural born Cupid, can you?" "I know that you would love to think your nudge caused this whole thing but Lois would have to be shot out of a cannon to romantically land anywhere in the direction of Clark." "Hm." "Sounds kind of like you're jealous." "Of Lois?" "No, of anyone getting in between you and Clark." "Come on, you spend all your time with him and then you make up all these excuses." "Why?" "You know what, Jimmy?" "Of the personality quirks I've learned to fall in love with paranoia is definitely at the bottom." "Translated to "back off"?" "Yep." "Got it." "Chloe." "Pushing it." "Look, if you're really not jealous then why are you bailing on your best friend's engagement party?" "Clark's a big boy." "How much damage can Lois really do?" "You know, you're right." "I can just delegate." "I've done that." "Once." "Since I doubt the rose peddler dowsed Lois I'm putting all my money on the oil essence lady." "So you can just meet her in an hour." "Here's the address." "Oh." "Thanks." "You're my guy." "Looking for a little inspiration?" "No, thanks, I've already got my muse." "So is this supposed to make you feel blissful or whatever?" "Not supposed to, it does." "Oh." "Now that sounds kind of easy." "You're on the rebound." "Rub sexy goo on and you're singing Barry White songs again." "Indigenous cultures have used herbal oils for centuries." "We've strayed so far from nature we think we're above it." "Yeah, yeah, nature, good." "Greenhouse gases, bad." "I get it." "Look, my girlfriend thinks that you dosed her cousin with a love potion last night." "Tall, loud, down on love?" "That would be Lois." "So do you have any, like, anti-love exfoliant or whatever?" "Something to take the Vaseline off the lens, so to speak?" "This will counteract the aphrodisiac but I usually have a sixth sense about people." "Something tells me Lois and Clark's destinies are a little more entwined than they realize." "[CHATTERING]" "[TAPPING ON GLASS]" "Could I have everyone's attention, please?" "I just wanted to thank you all for joining us to celebrate." "Over the years, I'm sure some of you have placed a few bets on whether I'd settle down." "But this couldn't be further from settling." "I'd like to toast my beautiful fiancée for making me happier than I thought I could ever be." "Looks like we missed dinner." "Clark, what are you doing here?" "Come on, Lex, you didn't think I was gonna miss this, did you?" "And look." "My mother would rather raise a glass with the enemy than stand by her son." "Clark, you're not yourself." "It's okay, Mom." "You're more a Luthor than Kent these days anyway." "I mean, Dad's been what?" "Dead a year?" "Who can blame you joining the race with Lana to see who's gonna add the Luthor monogram first?" "Lex, he's obviously on something and he wants us to react." "Please don't." "Chloe, I can't say that I'm surprised that you're celebrating here." "After all, once Lana's off the market, all those years of unrequited pining may actually pay off." "I can't say I haven't thought about it." "And you." "You know, I gotta hand it to you." "If you were gonna rebound why not choose the one person that I hated the most?" "But, come on, Lana, the joke's over by now, isn't it?" "LEX:" "Clark, I think you've done enough damage." "Why don't you leave?" "I'm not done yet!" "Besides, Lex I haven't given you my gift yet." "Congratulations on sealing the deal." "[RATTLES]" "To Baby Luthor." "[CROWD MURMURING]" "The real reason that Lana's marrying you." "LANA:" "Lex." "How dare you?" "CLARK:" "Come on, Lana if no one else in this room is gonna save you from Lex, then I will." "LOIS:" "I don't think so." "Lana is your past." "I'm your future." "This is the present." "He was acting like he was exposed to Red Kryptonite." "I guess it wasn't a coincidence Lois went hopelessly devoted at the same time." "According to Jimmy I think we may have found our culprit." "Lipstick?" "Infused with a Cupid's cocktail." "Lois was hit with an aphrodisiac." "But that shouldn't affect Clark." "Well, it didn't." "I guess that the lipstick's ruby red sheen didn't come from crushed cranberries." "If he was infected by a kiss, the second he was away from Lois he should be fine." "I think Lois' kisses were a little more than skin deep." "I think it's in his system." "He wasn't good enough for me anyway." "I'll let you handle Lois." "Hopefully, I can find Clark before Lex does." "Hey, you got it?" "Mugwort, a.k.a. a delegating success story." "Now, once this hits her skin, Lois' pumpkin ride is over." "What does she have that I don't?" "It's so weird to see her acting like a girl." "What's that?" "A little something to help break the infatuation spell." "I think it's time we get those glass slippers back." "You know what?" "Stop making fun of my feelings." "Just because you never got Clark doesn't mean you need to take it out on me." "Uh...." "LOIS:" "Wow." "This is awkward." "Please tell me I was going to costume party." "You humiliated me in front of my friends." "Come on, Lana." "You hardly knew anyone at that party." "What do you want from me?" "What I've always wanted." "For you to be happy." "I would love to know how that feels." "But it seems like every time I get close, you rip it all away from me." "Lana, stop kidding yourself." "You're never gonna be satisfied with Lex." "You can't marry him." "I've already made up my mind." "Even though you're still in love with me?" "What makes you so sure?" "Because I'm still in love with you." "Don't marry Lex." "Marry me." "I have given you every chance." "I have stood in this spot so many times just waiting for you to say something and you decide to do it now?" "You don't love me, Clark." "You just can't stand the idea that I love someone else." "LEX:" "Lana." "Lana?" "Lex." "Go ahead, Lana, tell him." "That you'd rather be with me." "LANA:" "Don't listen to him." "He's on something." "Oh, well, it didn't seem to bother you two minutes ago when you were kissing me." "What do you really expect is gonna happen now, Clark?" "Exactly what you're afraid of." "I'm not a competition." "You are to Lex." "He didn't tell you?" "He's always wanted everything I've ever had and you were at the top of that list." "You're just a trophy to him." "And he's nothing but your consolation prize." "Now tell me you don't love me." "Lana." "Tell me you don't" "Stay away from her." "You don't wanna do that." "You can't win." "You don't even know the rules of the game." "Clark, stop it!" "[GRUNTING  GAGGING]" "If I'd have known who you were gonna turn out to be I never would have saved you on that bridge." "Clark, you're killing him." "CLARK:" "Oh!" "[CLARK GRUNTING]" "Lana." "Let me handle this." "Please just leave." "[GRUNTING]" "Clark are you okay?" "Oh, sweetie." "[PANTING]" "If you hadn't shown up in time I'm not sure what I would have done to Lex." "How'd you know what to do?" "Last time you had some Kryptonite in your system, you had to sweat it out." "Weakening you seemed to be our only chance." "I just can't believe all those things I did." "I can." "Guess I can't blame you for being mad at me too." "Clark, you've walked around here for years bottling everything up basing every decision on what's best for other people." "You never stop to think what's best for you." "Mom, you don't think I meant those things I said about you and Chloe?" "I think there was a grain of truth in all of it." "Every time you've been affected by Red Kryptonite, it hasn't changed who you are, it's just stripped away your inhibitions." "You need to start being more honest about how you feel." "You're saying that I wanna kiss Lois and keep Chloe in my back pocket while the whole time I'm still in love with Lana?" "You're the only one who can sort that out." "When I kissed Lana, I could tell that she still felt something." "And, Mom" "Mom, I can't let her marry Lex." "This is probably hard to hear but I think the best thing you can do is leave her alone." "LOIS:" "Clark, girl alert." "I never know what I'll find in a grown man's clubhouse." "Oh, sorry, Mrs. Kent." "Hey, Lois." "Yeah, hi." "Well, I talked to Chloe and she filled me in on Lois Gone Wild but I'm just missing a few details about us." "[SIGHS]" "Like this." "Wow, Lois, I had no idea." "Save it, Smallville." "I was obviously on something." "Thank God, the ink wears off in a week." "[SIGHS]" "Well, I guess it's best that neither of us remembers." "I mean, I can't even really picture the two of us" "You don't think that we--?" "Think that we what?" "[SIGHS]" "You know that we" "No, Lois." "[SIGHS]" "I think I'd remember." "Yeah." "Of course, you would." "Highlight of your life." "Though I did find something." "I think you made it for me." "Whitesnake." "Wow." "I must have really liked you." "Hey, put another one down for the J-Chlo team." "Thanks to you, Lois is back to her old, heartbroken abrasive self." "I'm glad I could help with that, I guess." "And Clark is, well, back to being Clark." "Well, you're kind of brushing the landfill under the rug, aren't you?" "What, with Clark?" "So he took the whole breakup jealousy way past the drunk-dialing stage." "Can't arrest him for it." "He crashed Lana's party and told the world that she's eating for two." "Did I mention he kidnapped her?" "I guarantee you Clark is beating himself up more than anyone now." "We can just give the Clark bashing a reprieve, okay?" "No." "No, not until you admit that he royally screwed up." "You don't know him like I do." "And you remind me of that every day." "If I did the things he did, you'd never talk to me again." "Don't deny that." "What are you saying?" "I'm lying to you?" "Can you really tell me if you had the choice, you wouldn't rather be with him?" "Of course not." "You're my guy." "Now you don't believe me." "Well, I don't know what else to say." "Well, I think that's the point." "Neither of us do." "You know, maybe we should take a break." "Jimmy, I have" "You're fine, Miss Lang." "Nothing to worry about." "LEX:" "Thank you, doctor." "I just wanted to be sure with everything Lana went through yesterday." "LANA:" "Lex, I'm really sorry about what happened last night." "About Clark." "As far as I'm concerned, what we have doesn't have anything to do with Clark." "But I wasn't the one kissing him." "And I wasn't the one holding a gun to his head." "Funny how he calls this a game." "What were you gonna do, Lex?" "Shoot him?" "If I had to." "To save me or to hurt him?" "Considering what he did to you, Lana I had every right to come after Clark." "But the thing is I can't blame him." "If I ever let you slip through my fingers I've no idea what I'd be capable of." "How is she really?" "Well, you know this isn't the most typical pregnancy but everything's on schedule."
