7.08 Apparition by KK & AoT (Part II)

As retold by Maniac64 & PhantomChic

KK: We watch the credits and then go to Clark waking up and seeing Lana standing at the foot of his bed. She is wearing a flowing sundress in a pink so pale it’s practically white and a pink scarf around her neck.
MR: Talk about a scary thing to wake up to.
AoT: Clark looks shocked. “Lana? It can’t be. I saw your body. I went to your funeral.”
KK: “It’s me, Clark. I’m a spirit. I’m here because I need to talk to you. I need to understand.”
AoT: “Understand what?”
KK: “You Clark. I need to understand why you let this happen to me.” Lana removes the scarf and we see a scar going around her entire neck.
TW: There is no way she can blame Clark for what happened.
KK: She’s Lana; she will blame everyone for what happened to her. Everyone but herself, of course.
MR: She has a point.
AM: I can’t believe you’re writing Lana like this. Isn’t this exactly what you hated about her?
KK: Oh just wait, I’m just getting started. By the time this is over everyone will hate Lana and realize just how annoying she really is.
JG: So basically you’re going to do everything we hate about Lana only magnified.
KK: Exactly.
AoT: “I would never let someone do this to you! [to himself] Dang it, if only I could remember what happened.”
KK: “But you did Clark. You hardly even tried to stop it. With all of your power and speed you hardly even tried. You could have saved me. [starting to cry] I thought you cared about me!”
TW: Oh this is too much. What the heck did I do to deserve this?
KK: Don’t get me wrong Tom. This isn’t about revenge or anything; this is just me having fun.
AoT: Clark looks heart-broken. “I do care about you.”
KK: “Then why did you let me die?”
AoT: “I’m sorry Lana. It’s all my fault, I know I should have been able to stop it. Whatever happened I know I could have done more. I could have saved you.”
KK: “But you didn’t. You have the power, Clark. That means you have the responsibility to use it.”
AoT: “I’m sorry, Lana. From now on I will use my powers to do what ever I can to make sure nothing like this ever happens again.”
KK: “That’s right Clark. You can do anything. You can be the hero to innocent people like me.”
AoT: “Don’t worry, Lana I won’t fail you again.”
TW: I think I’m going to be sick.
KK: “I know Clark. You will always be my protector. My hero, my Superman.”
TW: Now I know I’m going to be sick.
MR: Did Lana just create Superman. I mean the name, the motivation. Is she now the direct cause?
KK: Pretty much. I’d say it’s a fitting ending for Lana.
AoT: As Lana fades away Clark shouts, “No! Don’t go Lana. Not yet. There’s so much more I need to say!”
KK: But Lana is gone and Clark is all alone.
AoT: Clark looks determined. He gets out of bed and grabs his lead suit. He looks down at it and resolutely says, “I’ll make you proud.”
AoT: We cut to outside the doors of the Senate chamber as Martha is leaving.
KK: She hears her name called by Joshua Skinner, an attractive man in his late 30s. A real Rob Lowe type. “Senator Kent, may I have a minute?”
AoT: “Certainly, Mr…?”
KK: “Skinner. But please call me Josh.”
AoT: Martha mentally prepares herself to defend the Meta Human Bill again. “And whose office are you with?
KK: “Oh I’m not a staffer. I’m a lobbyist representing Ethanol producers.”
TW: I don’t think that’s what they call it.
KK: Like I know American politics?
AoT: So Martha pleasantly surprised to be approached about a different issue. “How can I help you?”
KK: “I was hoping you would allow me to take you to lunch. I’d like the opportunity to talk to you…about Ethanol.”
AoT: Martha agrees and they leave together.
KK: Cut to Nick and Nate, who is now dressed, standing in the main room of the morgue. They are opening the drawers and checking toe tags.
AoT: Nate reads a tag and then pulls the drawer out all the way. “I got Bobby.”
KK: Nick hurries over. “Okay, let’s see if this works again.” He reaches out and touches Bobby’s arm. Bobby immediately opens his eyes and sits up.
AoT: “Dude, what’s going on? Why am I naked?”
KK: Nick and Nate bump fists. Nick goes back to checking bodies as Nate explains, “Car accident. We died. Nick brought us back.”
AoT: “Sweet. Where’s Brad?”
KK: “That’s who we’re looking for. Find some clothes and help.”
AoT: Nick finds and raises the fourth frat brother. While Brad is dressing, Nate starts looking around. “We should see who else is here.” They go back to the toe tags. “Old, old, ugly, seriously old. Hey here’s one! Larry Blaisdell, Age 21. Isn’t he a football player?”
KK: Nick walks over to look at Larry’s face. “Yeah, halfback, I think.”
AoT: “Cool, raise him.
KK: Nick revives him and Larry sits up and looks around, very confused.
AoT: “What happened to you, dude?”
KK: “I don’t know. I was skydiving with Alex. The last thing I remember is trying to get my parachute working. I don’t remember my chute opening.”
AoT: “That’s harsh, Larry.”
KK: “Yeah. Hey, wait, aren’t you guys from Kappa Theta Psi. Didn’t you all die in a car accident?” Larry jumps down and pulls on clothes.
AoT: Nate slaps him on the back. “You were dead too until a minute ago. Nick brought us all back.”
KK: “No way! We’re like zombies? Cool!” Larry hops down from the table. “Let’s go find a party.”
AoT: Brad looks Larry up and down. “Uh Larry. Maybe you should put some clothes on first.”
MR: Are all of these guys gay?
KK: It’s a distinct possibility. But we’re leaving it open.
AoT: “Right.” Larry grins and starts pulling on clothes and heads for the door. “I’m gonna go put the fear of god into the idiot who packed my chute.”
KK: Nick yells, “Stop!” Larry stops frozen in place.
AoT: Nick tells Larry to turn around and Larry does, mechanically. Nick starts to get it. “Jump on one foot.” Larry obeys.
KK: Nate loves it. “Dude, you can make him do anything? That rocks.”
AoT: “C’mon, Larry, let’s go party.”
KK: They all head out.
AoT: Cut to Lex’s office. The drapes are pulled so it’s pretty dark. Lex is sitting on the couch having a drink as he flips through a stack of reports.
KK: Lana’s voice interrupts him “Hello, Lex. Miss me?” Lex looks up to see Lana, still in white and surrounded by bright light.
AoT: “Well, this is new.” He drinks.
MR: Oh no. [MR bangs his head on the table]
KK: Oh yes. But first we fade to commercials.
