AM: So, how's the rest of the cast?
JG: Uh, fine. Say, you mind taking a look at the trailer for next episode?
AM: I'm really kind of done with the whole Small...
JG: [Shoving a paper into her hand] Gee, thanks.
AM: Then again, I'll take a look. [reading] "Lionel Luthor: Magnificent Bastard"?
JG: Oh, sorry, wrong one. [Swaps papers with AM]
AM: What is that?
JG: Oh, just a spin off series I'm negotiating with Al and Miles.
AM: I thought they are off Smallville?
JG: Yeah, well you try working with Singer.
AM: I have.
JG: Then you know why I'm talking with Al and Miles. Just read the teaser, OK?
PompousCWVoice: As tempers flare
[Clark and Lois in the barn going toe to toe]
Lois: So that's it? You're just going to walk away when things get tough?
[Cut to Clark walking away from Lois]
PompousCWVoice: A new enemy gathers,
[Cut to a computer screen showing a picture of a ginormous machine bearing alien markings. Pull back to show Lionel looking at the screen with Lucius in the background. There's muffled shouting and banging in the background. Lucius is agitated.]
Lucius: If we don't get out of here now we're going to have a big problem, Mr. Luthor.
Lionel: Getting out of here is the least of our problems, Mr. Best.
PompousCWVoice: one he cannot handle alone.
[Cut to the fortress. Clark speaks with J'onn]
Clark: After the things he's done I'll ever ask for his help!
J'onn: If you do not the planet you call home is doomed.
PompousCWVoice: Clark must decide...
[Lois and Lex inside a LuthorCorp lab]
Lois: A brownout? LuthorCorp has enough power to run it's own city. What the hell are you up to, Lex?
Lex: Despite what you think I really am trying to help.
PompousCWVoice: ..who he can trust...
[Martha talks to a young man in a generic office.]
Martha: We need someone we can trust. Someone Lucius trusts.
PompousCWVoice: ..and who he cannot.
[Kent farm. J'onn whispers to Clark. Lucius, Martha, and the young man Martha was talking to stand in the background]
J'onn: If you don't trust me then it doesn't matter whether or not I trust Lucius, does it?
PompousCWVoice: On the next Smallville!
[Cut to a beat up looking Lionel speaking with Lex.]
Lionel: The fate of us all may lay in your hands, Lex. It's up to you to shut it down before it's too late.
[Cut to Bittleman and Lois in a warehouse, eyes wide]
Bittleman: Oh, my God!
AM: No mention of Chloe?
JG: She's dead. What do you want us to say?
AM: They miss her?
JG: Eh, it'd just bring things down. I want to ramp up the excitement!
AM: So you're just going to forget she ever existed?
JG: I don't know. Maybe Lois could cry while she watches some old home video?
AM: Seriously, that's the best you can do?
JG: What do you want, besides back on the show?
AM: Actually, now that I've settled in with Caprica I'm not so sure I want to come back...
JG: Allison!
AM: Especially while Bryan is in charge.
JG: Well, you've got me there. That guy is whack.
AM: Do you blame me though? You've always wanted out.
JG: Yeah. Why is it the people who don't want to leave get all the lucky breaks?
AM: Couldn't tell you. I know! In light of Chloe's death Lois could devote her life to taking down Lex!
JG: And take the Sullivan name in Chloe's honor?
AM: Oh yeah, the Loe theory. Bryan is still pushing that?
JG: Not just the Loe theory, Loe pregnant with Clark's baby while dating an editor at the Planet! AM: You really do need to get rid of him.
JG: Thanks for your expert opinion, captain obvious, even Durance has figured that one out.
