Kelly Schmidt: Lana Lang

The Last Son of Krypton: Part II

Lana Lang

[a family's RV has crashed into a gas station. Young Clark Kent races to the scene, only to be blown back by an explosion. Clark gets up, shrugs off his backpack and runs over to the RV. He rips the door off its hinges and extends his hand to the couple inside. They grab hold of him and he lifts them out of the RV and safely onto the ground]
Annie: Mommy!
Annie's Mother: Annie!
[Clark looks over to see the little girl still trapped inside the RV]
Annie: Mommy! Mommy, Daddy!
[Clark runs back over to the RV. He rips the windshield off, then bends down to pick up the girl. Suddenly, there's another explosion which the girl and Clark are caught in. The couple looks on in horror]
Lana Lang: [runs over] Oh, my god! Clark! Clark!
[Clark then emerges from the flames, clutching the little girl tightly, completely unharmed]
Annie: [runs over to her mother] Mommy!
[her parents bend down and hug her warmly]
Annie's Mother: Annie.
Lana Lang: [runs over to Clark] You're not even burned. How?
Teenage Clark Kent: I don't know.

Jonathan Kent: [finding the baby Kal-El] Cute little fella. Got a good grip, too. Ow.
[Kal squeezes a little too hard]
Jonathan Kent: Ow!
Martha Kent: What do you think of the name Christopher?
Jonathan Kent: Now, Martha, let's discuss this.
Martha Kent: Or Kevin?
Jonathan Kent: Martha!
Martha Kent: Or Kirk. I know we can use my maiden name. What do you think of...
Ms. Stevenson: [cut to Clark daydreaming in class] Clark! Clark Kent!
Teenage Clark Kent: Y-Yes, Ms. Stevenson?
Ms. Stevenson: Looks like you've daydreamed your way to another perfect score.
Lana Lang: Once again, the boy genius performs to his usual standards.
Ms. Stevenson: And so did you, Ms. Lang.
Lana Lang: [seeing she got a D-] Ooh.

Lana Lang: For a guy who just aced his midterms, you don't look too happy. What's wrong, Clark?
Teenage Clark Kent: Oh, I don't know. Lately, I'm feeling kind of weird.
Lana Lang: You've always been weird, if you ask me.
[seeing he's not amused]
Lana Lang: Hey, it's Lana. You know, the girl who's had a crush on you since we were 3? You can tell me.
Teenage Clark Kent: It's just... in the last few months, I've been hearing things, you know? Things I couldn't before, like... like over there, Jenny's telling Pete Ross her folks are going out tonight.
Lana Lang: That little tart! You heard that?
Teenage Clark Kent: And I can see things, too, like in the gym.
[using his x-ray vision]
Teenage Clark Kent: Ms. Stevenson's inside, putting up decorations for the dance. Somebody should really be holding that ladder.
Lana Lang: You're saying you can see through walls? So, how many times have you peeked into the girls' locker room, huh?
Teenage Clark Kent: Lana!
Lana Lang: I'm just kidding. Jeez!
Teenage Clark Kent: It's not a joke, Lana. I'm going through a bad time. I thought if anybody'd understand me... listen!
Lana Lang: What is it?
Teenage Clark Kent: [hearing a car's tire blow out] Call an ambulance! There's gonna be an accident.
Lana Lang: [he speeds away] What? How do you know? Clark!
