7.04 Embedded by AM & ED (Part V)

ED: Maybe.
AM: Maybe? It is the gayest!
ED: It's just the gayest so far. At the last second Clark punches the freak coming towards him and Oliver hits the other with an arrow.
AM: Chloe says her line about how things are going.
ED: Clark answers they have things under control.
AM: Chloe disagrees.
ED: And so does the remaining freak. He cleans Clark's clock.
TW: Ouch.

ED: Cut to Lois parachuting and then her POV from above Clark and Green Arrow. Into her comm, "Blackhawk, this is Scoopgirl. Things aren't looking good from where I'm standing. Er, falling."
AM: Zinda is landing. "I can't believe you're going by Scoopgirl."
ED: "I wanted to be Iceman but I knew you'd never stop making lame '80s jokes."
AM: "You were right. I'm touching down now. Give me a couple minutes to hack the security system.
ED: "I don't think we have a couple minutes!"
AM: Mocking Star Trek's Scotty, "I'll give 'er all I can, captain!"
ED: "Shut up! Scoopgirl out." Lois lands.

AM: Cut to Zinda. She finds Cyborg laying outside the compound and checks the security console. "Thanks for all the hard work, soldier." She taps a few keys and the light goes from red to green. "Bingo."

ED: Cut to Lois pulling off her helmet from the teaser. Once again she says she's there to take down Lex.
AM: "Lois? I thought you were dead."
ED: "I didn't think you cared."
AM: "Lois, you know that's not true."
ED: "Do I?" She pulls a few piece of debris off Oliver and offers him her hand, "Can you stand?"
AM: Oliver struggles to stand up, "Thanks, Lois."
ED: Looking around, "Now, wasn't there another one of you?"
AM: "I'll get him. We need someone still quick on their feet to make sure the security parameter is taken care of."
ED: "Right." Lois heads off.
AM: Oliver hobbles over towards Clark, "Bet you never thought you'd be glad to see her again, huh?" He bends down to roll the freak off of Clark.
TW: Wait. Lois saves the Justice League?
ED: Refreshing, isn't it?
TW: It's idiotic!
MR: It is kind of ridiculous.
ED: You want Lex to defeat the League or not?
MR: If I have to choose between being defeated by the League or Lois Lane...
ED: You know what? Forget it. You don't have a choice.
TW: I just have a problem that on a show that's supposed to be about Superman you've turned Clark into a minor member of a League that has to have it's ass saved by...
ED: Don't you dare say it!
JG: Two girls?
ED: I said don't say it!
JG: That's why I said it.
TW: That's not what I meant. I meant a guest star and another minor character.
ED: Oh, so Lois is a minor character now?
AM: She was dead up until just now.
KK: I wonder what that was like. I bet it was nice.
ED: What about all those times Chloe saved Clark's ass? Huh?
AM: What about them?
JG: Superman always having to be saved by a girl, one without powers to boot.
AM: Chloe has powers!
JG: Sure, now she does. But before? It's pathetic isn't it?
TW: I didn't care for those all that much either.
AM: Tom!?!?
TW: Clark saves people in danger, not the other way around!
ED: It's a brave new world, Tom. Get used to it.
TW: [To AM] I can't believe you let her do this!
AM: It's out of my hands, Tom. Talk to Al & Miles.
ED: Save your breath, Tom. I have them wrapped around my finger.
KK: You do, do you?
ED: Yeah, I do.
KK: Can you get Lana killed?
ED: I'd have to cash in all my chips... and even then...
KK: [Angry] So you're not even going to try?
ED: Kristen, I...
KK: Don't worry, Tom. She'll get hers.
ED: Kristen, all of a sudden you got really scary, didn't you?
KK: [Smirks] You don't know the half of it.

ED: As Lois crosses the island she sees the second plane approaching for a landing, "Blackhawk, looks like our company intends to stay."
AM: Zinda is inspecting racks of computer lab equipment. Several guards lay unconscious around her. "Swell."
ED: "Should I blowup the runway?"
AM: "You could. But then we would have no way out of here."
ED: "What are the chances they're friendly?"
AM: "About as good as you keeping a boyfriend for more than a month?"
ED: "OK, I'm officially ignoring you now."
AM: "As long as you're ignoring me can you make sure they don't get into the facility for a couple minutes?"
ED: "You counting on me?"
AM: "Do I have another choice?" Zinda starts humming "Danger Zone".
ED: "Stop it."
AM: "Whatever you say, Iceman."

ED: Back to Clark and Oliver.
AM: Ollie picks his communicator back up.
ED: "Watchtower, this is Green Arrow. What's the status?"
AM: "You tell me. I'm completely freaking out over here! Have you been captured? Who took your communicator?"
ED: "Don't worry, Watchtower. We're going to be OK."
AM: "Is she a friendly?"
ED: Oliver hesitates, "More or less. Mostly less. But the important part is she saved our ass."
AM: Cut back to Chloe looking confused, "What...?"
ED: Clark notices a couple of the freaks regaining consciousness. "Now's not the best time. We're not out of the woods yet."

AM: Hope deplanes. She eyes the other LuthorCorp jet with disdain.
ED: Her pilot appears in the hatch, "Do you require assistance, mam?"
AM: Hope spots Lois running for the facility entrance in the distance the two are approximately equidistant from it. Hope's eyes narrow, "No. I'll take care of this myself." She takes off.

ED: Hope and Lois meet just outside the facility.
AM: Hope is livid, "You! You're supposed to be dead!"
ED: At first Lois doesn't recognize her. But when she does she makes a crack about the big house.
AM: Hope pulls a gun.
ED: Lois tells Hope she looked better without hair and calls her Lex's yap dog.
AM: This pisses Hope off. She tries to pistol whip Lois but Lois grabs Hope's arm and shakes the gun loose.
ED: There's a nice little cat fight. Lois laments the fact that if she's going to be wearing Zinda's outfit Lex could have at least sent a male minion.
MR: Do we get any LezYay like in Combat?
ED: Sure. If you want LezYay you can have a little LezYay.
MR: Really?
ED: I figure it's the least I can do if I'm going to withhold Sex.
TW: In other words you're just going to tease?
ED: Shut up.
AM: Hope counters all of Lois' moves fairly easily.
ED: "You've learned a few moves since the last time we met."
AM: "Prison will do that for a girl."
ED: "Oh, yeah? Let's see if they taught you this one." Lois attempts a flying kick.
AM: Hope catches Lois' leg with Lois in mid air and twists it around knocking Lois on her ass.
ED: "I guess so." Lois gets up and moves to block the entrance.
AM: "You're not trying to defeat me. You're just trying to keep me contained. Why?"
ED: "I don't know what you're talking about."
AM: Hope moves to punch Lois. When Lois moves to block Hope grabs her arm and flips her. Hope runs into the facility.
ED: Lois warns Zinda with her comm, "I hope you're almost done, company is coming."
AM: Cut to Zinda disabling the freak control system.
TW: The "freak control system"?
AM: We'll have the appropriate technobabble ready in time for the episode. She tells Lois she just needs a minute or two more.
ED: "Great." Lois runs after Hope.
AM: But Hope gets to the control room first and takes one of the downed guard's guns. She aims at Zinda and tells Zinda back away from the control.
ED: Just as Lois careens into her...
AM: Hope fires.
