The moderators have been terrible. And they are terrible every time. This is by no means a new thing, and it happens year after year after year. Candy Crowley set the bar in the sub-basement last election, and it has only marginally improved since.
So why on earth does the RNC agree to this? Why does a candidate go along with it? I just don't get it. Why on earth would Donald Trump of all people go bleatingly along? I really don't get it. Why would one do that?
How about this: "We would be happy to do a Presidential debate. But WE get to choose half the moderators. WE will tell you what venues we agree to. If we don't agree, we walk. And we publicize your unfair demands far and wide. We will no longer do "debates" with hostile Leftist after hostile Leftist. WE choose half the moderators."
But there HAS to be a reason. Is it just being hide-bound? Is there another explanation?

Here are the playoff statistics for two quarterbacks. Look at them and let us know which of the two you'd want quarterbacking your favorite team:
It's not a particularly hard question. Player B completes passes at a ridiculous rate and throws for better than 2 yards per attempt more than Player A. About the only thing Player A has going for him is a slightly better interception rate. Over the course of a full season with 550 attempts each, Player B would throw about three more interceptions than Player A, but he'd complete 25 more passes and throw for just under 1,200 more passing yards than Player A.
If we polled 100 fans as to whether they'd rather have Player A or Player B, the only ones choosing Player A would be the ones who thought it was a trick question. In a way, it is; if we told those same 100 fans to pick a playoff quarterback without giving them any statistics and let them choose between Tom Brady (Player A) and Kurt Warner (Player B), Warner would have only the trick question people on his side.

Wendell Berry Tells It Like It Is
Wendell Berry has been a visionary about food and agriculture (among other things) for as long as I can remember. My 1971 edition of the Whole Earth Catalog featured an excerpt from Mr. Berry's The Long-Legged House. In it was this:
Man cannot be independent of nature.
In one way or another he must live in relation to it, and there are only two alternatives: the way of the frontiersman, whose response to nature was to dominate it, to assert his presence in it by destroying it; or the way of Thoreau, who went to the natural places to become quiet in them, to learn from them, to be restored by them.
So it was with a mixture of surprise and relish that I watched Bill Moyers interview Wendell Berry. This is indeed a rare television appearance by Mr. Berry and I could not have asked for a better, more insightful interviewer than Mr. Moyers. This is Mr. Moyers writing on the Huffington Post to promote the segment:
Wendell Berry, one of America's most influential writers who has written more than 40 novels, books of poetry, short stories and essays, has become an outspoken advocate for revolution. He's calling for immediate action to end industrial farming and return to the sustainable farming methods of years past. In his interview with Bill, Berry says: "People who own the world outright for profit will have to be stopped; by influence, by power, by us."
This is a conversation that we all should watch, pay attention to, and, ultimately, act upon. Wendall Berry has been telling it like it is for a long, long, time.
Man cannot be independent of nature."
Berry is not an ivory tower writer. Far from it. He lives and works on his family's farm in Kentucky where generations of Berrys have worked the land for over 200 years.
He also practices what he preaches. He is not afraid to engage in civil disobedience to show his adamant opposition to big ag. At the same time, he is one of the biggest and most eloquent supporters of sustainable farming and the local food movement.
Mr. Berry has this to say about the current state of affairs:
It's mighty hard right now to think of anything that's precious that isn't endangered. There are no sacred and unsacred places; there are only sacred and desecrated places. My belief is that the world and our life in it are conditional gifts. We have the world to live in on the condition that we will take good care of it. And to take good care of it we have to know it. And to know it and to be willing to take care of it, we have to love it.
And with that I will quit writing because, as usual, Mr. Berry says it all very well.
Have you ever read anything written by Wendell Berry? Do you agree with his stances?

Last week we saw the Euro make a correction and then push forward making new recent highs. So this could be another exciting week with more gains coming for the Euro.
However due to profit taking there could be a correction in the Euro before we see any more gains. The first target level I have on the Euro is 1.4237 then after that is a key resistance level at 1.4363
Support levels for this pair are 1.4050 and 1.3800.
Yohay wrote on Forex Crunch in his weekly update that the Dollar will be weak unless we get some major surprises, so that is what I will be looking for the dollar weakness to continue.
Kathy Lien in her blog published a chart that is useful for seeing what levels some of the major pairs have been at. Which also helps me to make trading decisions. The more information I can get on the currencies helps me to make better trades. So with that being said this is my plan.
How I am going to trade this pair this week ?
I am going to watch for a correction to the 1.04050 level and watch the support there and see if it holds up. If that support level holds up I am going to get in long. If that support level gets taken out I am going to watch the trend line on the bottom I have drawn on my charts and watch for the bounce off of that lower trend line around the 1.3900 level. I plan to buy off of a bounce on that trend line.
If the pair does not correct I will be watching for nearest resistance level and I will be checking to see if the price can break through it and then buy after a break. Or if the price bounces off the resistance level I will sell the pair and watch until the correction ends.

How do I use UTAU? How do you make an UTAU? How do you make USTs? How do you make an UTAU sing? Help, I'm having problems with…
I love helping people learn how to make an UTAU voicebank and use it properly, but I can't answer that all in a FAQ! Though I have tutorials planned, in the meantime, just message me on Soundcloud, deviantART or Twitter, and I'll do my best to help! Please note that I am not currently taking OTO.ini requests or trades. – Myst
May I sell products or music made using your UTAUs?
Please see our terms of use for details on this! We allow anyone to use our voicebanks for free for noncommercial hobbyist use and doujin use, but for commercial works we are actually selling a license for the entire Kikyuune Family for $12 on Storenvy. As for all other VOXYZ UTAU, permission is required from the voicer to sell works commercially that are made using their voicebank/character. – Myst
When will *voicebank* be finished or released?
If I ever say I'll have a voicebank by a certain date, add anywhere from a week or a few months onto the end of that deadline… I sadly do not tend to release voicebanks in a timely manner due to limited time and space for recording. I am also rather nitpicky with sound quality, which doesn't help at all. Many apologies. – Myst
What did you use to record?
Aiko's CVVC and VCCV banks were recorded using OREMO and my Blue Yeti mic in a closet home-made "studio". Her old CV-VV voicebanks were recorded in Audacity with the Yeti, and her Version 4 (V.4, and V.4.1) was also recorded in Audacity, but on an Audio Technica mic at my college library. Acts 1 through 3 were recorded in Garageband on the built-in mic on my Macbook.
Akiko, Akihiko, Chiyoko, Bunko, K3RB3RUS and CYE were all also recorded with the Yeti. As for Ariella, MoonCrafter recorded her in a makeshift studio on a AKG p120 mic with a Steinburg UR-12 USB audio interface. – Myst
Myst, you UTAU on Mac? Do you use UTAU-Synth?
I have plenty of experience in PC UTAU as I used to use Boot Camp on my older Macbook, but since my new computer has limited harddrive space, I've resorted to using UTAU-Synth almost exclusively for 2 years. However, I recently obtained a PC laptop and I've started using for Vocaloid, CeVIO and PC UTAU things, and I installed PC UTAU on my Macbook via Crossover. – Myst
How do Aiko's boots work?
Aiko isn't human! She was originally designed as a "biodroid" or an android with organic parts. It's the inverse of a cyborg, which is where a human was given robotic parts. The reason her boots are so clunky looking and somehow don't fall off is that they're actually part of her leg's outer casing, and it's also a kind of joke with friends that they can turn into rockets or roller skates and other things like a Transformer. However you can have her wear whatever shoes for whatever artwork you want! – Myst
Can my UTAU be paired with Aiko/be Aiko's friend?
Unofficially, sure! If you want your UTAU to sing with Aiko or you particularly like to ship her with whomever, go ahead. I think headcanon crushes and idol things are cute and it's really kind of an honor that people like her enough to do that sort of thing.
However, please don't claim it as "official" or go messing with Aiko's Wiki pages! And I'd rather you not ask me out of the blue to make your UTAU her "friend" because it just seems a bit awkward if we haven't ever talked before. Sorry! – Myst
Aiko looks like Rin with blue hair.
Okay, I do get this one a lot, and after some recent wiki vandalism, I feel I should address the issue in detail.
I know there are plenty of similarities, but believe it or not, I never actually intended for Aiko to be similar to Rin, nor did I base her initial design off of Rin. She WAS, however, intended to be Crypton-styled, and her original design was heavily based on both Hatsune Miku and a fanmade named Fuyu Hiiragi.
It's primarily the hair and hairclips. The hairstyle developed over time (as shown below), and I just happen to like hairpins, so I added those into her first design. They were just kinda slapped directly onto her hair and meant to resemble buttons. When I went to try to make her hair a bit more "realistic" and less chunky, it became more and more Rin-like as time went on.
I've recently done a redesign of her hairstyle in back to hopefully move past this, but this is the last iteration I have planned for her design. – Myst
How long have you all been in UTAU?
I learned about UTAU through Zuii Takoe/SRS in late May/early June of 2009, but only started working on Aiko around June. She was first posted sometime around July 10th 2009 on my old personal Youtube channel. A week later, on the 17th, I moved UTAU operations to a new channel, UTAUxyz, and I've been at it ever since! – Myst
Aiko sounds like a boy. / Is Aiko a guy? / Is Myst a guy?
Aiko and I are both girls! I'm an alto, which is the lowest feminine voice range, and I tend to record her at what I consider a comfortable pitch.
While I don't mind nowadays if people headcanon Aiko as any gender (I've seen someone consider Aiko to be nonbinary at least once and that was neat) I'll still be keeping the "canonical" gender female. – Myst
PLEASE NOTE: Even if you feel Aiko sounds or looks excessively masculine, do NOT refer to Aiko as a "tr*p".

"I am not much of a dessert fan, but the one I can never resist is creme brulee. I am a bit of a snob when it comes to this dessert, because although it really is simple in both design and execution, restaurants have a curious flair for messing it up, either by making it too sweet, too bland, or scorching the sugar crust. The worst offense is pre-caramelizing the crust, then refrigerating the brulee until later. Horrible. Follow this recipe exactly and you won't go wrong."
Perfect Creme Brulee
0 recipe photos
READY IN:4hrs 25mins
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream (40% milkfat, cold and fresh)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 extra-large egg yolks (large eggs are okay if XL unavailable)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla bean paste
- 1⁄3 cup sugar (for crust, approximate measure)
- Preheat oven to 300°F.
- In a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat cream and 2 tbls sugar until just hot (small bubbles will form around the edge and a bit of steam will be released when cream is stirred).
- While cream is heating, separate two eggs, reserving the whites for another use (or discarding). Put the yolks in a bowl.
- Whisk in vanilla bean paste. This paste, made by Nielsen-Massey Vanillas and available in many upscale culinary shops and some spice shops, is a godsend and no cook who uses vanilla should be without it. If you don't have this paste, split one plump, long vanilla bean and scrape out the bean seeds inside. If you're particularly fond of vanilla, you may also add a scant amount of pure vanilla extract, but no more than 1/2 teaspoon.
- Add hot cream to egg yolk mixture and whisk thoroughly.
- Pour evenly into four creme brulee dishes.
- Place the creme brulee dishes in a suitably sized pan and add enough hot water (the hotter, the better) to reach about halfway up the sides of the dishes.
- Cover loosely with a piece of aluminum foil (do not seal, just place on the dishes).
- Bake for 25-27 minutes or until custard is just set.
- Let cool on countertop for about 10 minutes or so, then chill creme brulees in the refrigerator for a minimum of 3-4 hours. Wrapping tightly with plastic is not recommended because water will condense on underside of wrap and drip on the custard when removed.
- Immediately prior to serving, sprinkle a thin layer of sugar (about 1/16th inch deep) evenly over the custard. If any water puddles are present on the surface of the custard, absorb them carefully with a paper towel before sprinkling with sugar.
- Using (preferably) a creme brulee kitchen torch, caramelize the sugar using continuous movements with the flame. The sugar must not be scorched, which is easy to do if you let the flame linger in one location. Use as hot and large a flame as practicable so you can caramelize the sugar in short order and not "melt" the custard underneath.
- If you don't have a torch, a broiler can melt and caramelize the sugar, but this is not at all the preferred method. Careful attention should be paid while broiling and the dishes should be very close to the heat source.
- Once the sugar is caramelized, let cool briefly and serve. The crust should be glasslike and hard. Do not garnish with berries or chocolate kisses or mint leaves or whipped cream or any such nonsense. In my opinion, doing so detracts from the elegant simplicity of this classic dessert.

Tom opened his eyes to the cold, gray, daylight that seeped in through his bedroom window. His head was pounding although he hadn't had a drop of drink the night before. He closed his eyes again and attempted to recall his life, and he let a few blurry images flash by until he was caught up to his present state. He blinked and looked around and his ears started ringing. He moved his head from side to side to rid himself of the sound.
It was usually very easy for Tom to wake up early. He often didn't even need an alarm clock to wake him up at 6:00am. He looked at the clock next to his bed and it read 11am. He groaned and pulled himself up to a sitting position.
A few flashes of a nightmare from that night lit up in his head and he frowned at his feet. Amy was in his dreams like always. He saw her face. She was his girlfriend until she left him three months earlier and he still couldn't shake the heartbreak. They met in college and had been together for six years.
He got up walked down the hall to the bathroom. Everything was old in his house. It was a beautiful townhouse in a quiet area of the city but it was definitely falling apart, especially without Amy insisting he clean up after himself.
As he got closer to the bathroom door he thought he could hear someone singing softly. It sounded like a woman's voice. He stopped and listened. Maybe it was coming from someone's radio down the street.
He moved again towards the door and his head started to pound. He could feel a thin layer of sweat breaking out all over his body. Could someone be in there?
"Amy?" he said in an almost strangled voice. He took the doorknob in his hand and pushed the door open abruptly and with too much force. He stumbled in and with a shaky hand, pulled back the shower curtain.
There was nothing there but the slow drip of the moldy faucet. Tom stared at the little pool of water around the clogged drain in the bathtub. He leaned down and looked at the little beads of water forming and falling from the tip of the faucet. He became transfixed as he watched the drops dangle and then drop down into the bathtub. As he followed one drop's journey he saw it fall into a tiny pool of blood. He recoiled. He felt dampness on his lip and realized his nose was bleeding.
He stood up quickly and looked in the bathroom mirror to see a stream of red rolling down his face and onto his shirt. He grabbed a handful of toilet paper to stop the bleeding and when he looked up again, he saw a flash of a human-sized shape standing behind him. He screamed and whipped around only to find his old cat Stella sitting on the hamper behind him with her ears pulled back. She was hissing furiously at him, which is something he had never seen her do before.
Tom grabbed the aspirin out of the cabinet above the bathroom sink and ducked out of the room.
Later that afternoon, Tom sat on the couch in the living watching the news. The newscaster was on with a weather forecast screen behind him. He stated:
"…Ninety mile an hour winds, heavy rainfall and flooding is what you can expect as soon as tonight and into tomorrow. The storm is coming and we are advising everyone to stay inside their homes and take the necessary precautions to secure their homes against Hurricane Amy."
He leaned his head forward and squinted at the television as he tried to figure out if he had really heard her name. A sharp pain ripped through his head and he closed his eyes and keeled over, hands at his temples. The pain subsided and all he could hear was a loud ringing. He stood, looking at the television, blinking and shaking his head.
Abruptly, the ringing stopped and he collapsed onto the couch, drool hanging on his chin. The television was showing images of abandoned streets in the city and sold-out grocery stores. At the bottom of the screen, the words Hurricane Ally stood out in red. He closed his eyes and slept.
Tom awoke to the sound of pelting rain outside of his house. It was almost dark. He hobbled to the window and opened his curtains to look outside. The trees were bending back and forth in the wind and the clouds were thick and black overhead.
He shivered and felt a wave of nausea sweep over him. Something was happening. He didn't know what it was, but something was happening to him. Was it the storm, or some kind of illness? He felt very alone and frightened. He missed Amy and wondered what she was doing and how she could have left him after all those years. He shook his head to stop his thoughts from going down that all too familiar road.
As he stood at the window he noticed a woman struggling to walk down the street in front of his house. She had a short, pink raincoat on with the hood up. Her umbrella turned inside out as she fought to stay on her feet. He wanted to run out to help her but his feet were inexplicably glued to the floor. He stood like a statue and watched as the umbrella was ripped out of her hands and blew down the street.
She stopped and turned towards him and he saw that it was Amy. She looked at him and walked closer towards his house. Her eyes were devoid of any emotion but it was Amy's green eyes looking at him. She was saying something but he couldn't hear anything.
With mounting horror, he realized there was something very wrong with her. Her legs were all wrong. As she got closer he realized that they were bent the wrong way and her wrists were bloody and bruised. She held her arms out to him and walked, like some kind of animal on its hind legs, towards him. He moaned with fear and tried to back away but he was stuck there, frozen. She was still saying something and as she got but five feet away from the big bay window of his home.
He saw that her teeth were sharp and as she spoke they ripped through her soft lips. She was snarling and hissing and her eyes glowed with hatred.
Tom screamed. He screamed so loud his vocal cords ripped and he fell backwards onto the floor and dragged himself away. He got onto his feet and ran into the kitchen. He huddled in the corner whimpering, looking all around for some sign of the hideous thing from outside.
He then heard a thump in the basement and he put his hand over his own mouth and listened. The basement door was a few feet from him. He crawled towards it and locked it. He leaned against the door and listened as his heart pounded.
He heard the same sad singing floating up from the basement steps and it washed over him like warm water.
"Amy. Oh, god. Amy I'm sorry." Suddenly he remembered everything. The images of his life weren't blurry this time but brilliantly clear. He saw his time with Amy and how happy they were for a time. Then he saw them arguing. They argued so much those last few years. He saw her face and saw the fear there. He saw himself lunging towards her and saw his hands grasping her throat as she clawed and scratched at his face. He saw himself opening the basement door and as if following instruction, he stood and opened the door in front of him. He walked down the creaking steps into the blackness and he saw Amy in front of him, tied up with rope attached to the ceiling beams with her arms spread and feet tied together like Christ. Her eyes were bulging and pleading and her mouth was shut with duct tape. She struggled in her bonds and tried to scream. He saw a large butcher knife in his hand and then a ripple of pain went through his head again and he snapped out of his dream state and collapsed on the floor.
He looked up and saw that he wasn't in a memory anymore. He was in the basement looking at the rotted, bound corpse of a woman. It was Amy, still there, but long-dead. He stood and walked towards her. He touched her hair and her face and smiled.
"Amy. You're here. I knew you would come back. I love you so much my darling. I'll never let you go," he said as he kissed her decaying lips and started to hum a song they once had sung together.

text: Maxime Simoens unveiled his debut collection for Leonard in a highly charged atmosphere, as the front row buzzed with talk that his first showing for the house would also be his last, as reported by WWD on Monday. While that news was not confirmed, it was clear that Simoens has stirred things up at Leonard, which is famed for its colorful prints. For starters, he hardly used any in his show. Instead, the house's trademark Coptic pattern was worked into a black dévoré gown, while a Japanese blossom motif was embroidered on a nude chiffon blouse. Meanwhile, Leonard's typical silk jersey numbers were virtually banished in favor of short and tight cocktail dresses and belted jackets best suited to the under-30 set. "I wanted to give it a rock 'n' roll edge and to show that a Parisian woman could wear Leonard every day, and not necessarily just in the summer to go to Saint-Tropez," Simoens explained. Were the label's owners prepared for such a radical rejuvenation? Significantly, Leonard president Daniel Tribouillard broke a long-standing tradition by not taking a bow with the designer at the end of the show.

Jurant avoir changé, Lionel offre à Clark une réponse au crime mais lui demande quelque chose en retour. Pendant ce temps, Lana rencontre la mère deJason et a un violent flashback de l'incident à Paris, la menant à suspecter que la mère de Jason était présente lorsqu'elle a reçu son tatouage.
Act 1 Teaser
We see a shot of the enormously high ceiling of an opera house outside the theater. Night. There are windows in the ceiling giving us a small glimpse of the night sky, and surrounding the windows are white lights that shine down. The shot moves down from the ceiling to an opera after party that is going on. The open architecture of the building allows us to see that the party is taking place on several floors. Men and women dressed in tuxedos and gowns mingle and drink champagne as servers walk around with trays of hors d'oeuvres.
The shot closes in on a lower level of the building and travels toward Lex who is standing alone drinking champagne. He checks his watch, looking somewhat bored. Then he walks to the edge of the floor and stands next to the railing where he is able to see the ground floor below him and the high ceiling above.
A few meters away, also standing next to the railing, is a beautiful woman with long brown hair and a red dress. She takes a sip from her glass as she and Lex make eye contact. She smiles at him temptingly. Lex smiles back. Another guest of the party walks in front of the woman, and when the guest passes, the woman seems to have disappeared. Lex walks toward where she was standing but doesn't see her.
Then he goes back to the railing and looks down at one of the lower floors where he sees the woman at the bottom of the stairs. She looks up at him for a moment, then starts to walk away. Lex comes down the stairs, following her. When he gets to the floor she is on, he turns a full circle, looking for her, then finally finds her standing at another railing and looking out a window at the city.
The woman has a far away look on her face as Lex comes up behind her. He looks over her shoulder and sees that she is holding an MP3 player in her hand. She turns her head slightly toward Lex, sensing his presence. He comes up next to her and we see the player's ear buds in her ears. She faces Lex.
Lex : What are you listening to?
Woman : My favorite song.
She takes one of the buds out of her ear and hands it to Lex. We hear soft dance music coming from the bud as Lex takes it and puts it in his ear. Because the buds are connected to each other with a wire, Lex has to lean in very close to the woman's face to listen. She touches his face softly.
Lex : [Whispered.] What's your name?
Woman : Does it really matter?
Satisfied with this answer, Lex hands the ear bud back to her.
Fade to a spiraling shot of Metropolis from above. The shot spins slowly and the buildings seem to twirl around each other. This fades to an overhead shot of Lex and the woman in an elevator, similarly swirling. They begin to kiss and Lex reaches to push a button on the wall. He pushes 40 which is the highest floor.
He moves down from her lips to kiss her neck and his hand slides from her arm to the side of her torso as her arms encircle his shoulders. They kiss on the lips again.
From the elevator security camera, we see them kissing as Lex has her pushed up against the wall of the elevator. Then she pushes him to another wall, continuing the kiss.
Her eyes close with pleasure as he trails kisses along her ear and down her neck.
Fade to the two of them entering a hotel room with the woman in the lead. Before the door is even completely shut behind them, Lex whips her around to face him and they kiss again even more passionately. She pulls Lex's tuxedo jacket off of him.
Fade to the woman sitting on Lex's lap in the bed. He watches her as she unzips her dress and pulls it off.
Fade to Lex and the woman making love. They roll around in the bed together touching and kissing hungrily.
The shot leaves them and comes to rest on a table where there is an open bottle of champagne sitting next to two partially filled glasses. We stay on the bottle and glasses as the shot fades to morning and daylight fills the room.
From there, the shot travels along the floor where we see the clothes of both Lex and the woman strewn about carelessly. We finally come to the bed where Lex is sleeping. A hotel maid calls from outside the room.
Maid : Housekeeping.
Lex remains asleep, and the maid enters with a bundle of clean towels. She looks at the bed and drops the towels, screaming at the top of her lungs. Lex immediately awakens and sits up with a start. He sees the maid who continues to scream and runs from the room. Then Lex turns and looks at the bed next to him.
There he sees the woman he brought back with him the night before. Her hands are tied above her head and she is covered in blood. She is dead. Terrified, Lex looks at his hands and sees that they have blood on them also.
[Opening credits]
Act 1 Scene 1
Lex and his lawyer, Corinne Harper, rush down the front stairs of the courthouse in Metropolis. Day. Reporters and photographers swarm around them shouting questions and flashing pictures.
Corinne : Mr. Luthor has no comment. [Quietly, to Lex.] Don't say anything.
The reporters continue to shout.
Corinne : Look, people, I told you my client has no comment, all right?
Cut to Lex and Corinne in Lex's study where they are watching footage of the preceding scene on the news. The caption at the bottom of the screen says "Billionaire Bloodbath." A female reporter's voice can be heard.
Reporter : Billionaire Lex Luthor was released today on five million dollars bail. But we're told he is still the only suspect in the grisly slaying early this morning of a young woman whose body has not yet been identified. The police investiga--
Corinne turns off the television. Lex keeps looking at the screen, thoughtful.
Corinne : So, you want to tell me how you wound up lying naked, covered in blood, next to a dead girl you hardly knew?
Lex : I didn't kill her.
Corinne : I didn't ask. Lex, you're paying me to get you off, not to prove you're innocent. But you're gonna have to be straight with me. Were you drinking last night?
Lex : Yes. At the fundraiser in the hotel. We had champagne.
Corinne : Is it possible that you were drugged?
Lex : Well, it wouldn't be the first time.
Corinne : Well, if you were drugged, it'll show up in the blood test I had you take. In the meantime, you're gonna have to try and remember anything you can about this girl.
Lex : I can't. [He thinks about it.] She had a pink MP3 player. We listened to it together.
Corinne : Well, that wasn't on the evidence list. Are you sure that she had it with her at the hotel?
There is a knock at the door and one of the mansion's guards enters with Corinne's assistant Shannon who is holding a cell phone.
Shannon : Uh, excuse me, Corinne. It's the DA.
Corinne : Thank you, Shannon. I'll be right there. [Shannon leaves. To Lex.] You stay put. It's a media circus out there, and I don't want you saying anything stupid.
Lex : Your bedside manner needs work.
Clark enters behind Corinne.
Corinne : I'm not here to hold your hand, Lex. You want a hug, call your mother.
Lex shakes his head unhappily. Corinne glances at Clark, then leaves the room with the guard as Clark walks to Lex.
Clark : Lex.
Lex : Clark. I take it you saw my walk of shame on the news?
Clark : How are you holding up?
Lex : Not so great, actually. I trust you're here as a friend.
Clark : Just tell me you didn't do this.
Lex puts his hands on Clark's shoulders.
Lex : I met a girl at the opera. I took her to a hotel. I didn't kill her.
Clark : [He nods, believing.] Who is she?
Lex : I don't know.
Clark : [Shocked.] Wait, you slept with her, but you didn't know her name?
Lex : It's one of those nights that never happens. You meet somebody and you just get caught up in the moment. I'm guilty of that, but I'm not a murderer. It was my father. He's framing me.
Clark : Your father's in prison.
Lex : You really think that matters? Go home, Clark. You don't want to be involved in this. Trust me.
Lex leaves Clark alone in the study.
Act 1 Scene 2
Outside shot of the Talon. Night. Lana is asleep in her apartment. Her brow is wrinkled and she breathes heavily as she jerks her head around. She is having a nightmare.
In her dream, we first only see a shaky shot of her right eye. Then the shot backs up abruptly and we see her whole face. Her hair is disheveled and blood is trailing from her mouth. She is Isobel Theroux tied to the stake and about to be burned. A series of images flash before us quickly.
We see the mob yelling at her angrily. Then a brief shot of Lana rubbing charcoal over the symbol on Isobel's tomb in Paris. Then we see Isobel tied to the stake again, smiling strangely. A quick shot of a burning fire and then Isobel speaks in French.
Isobel : Je vais dormait seulement un peu. [I am going to sleep just for a while]
A shot of Magistrate Wilkins standing at the foot of the pyre. The images continue to flash by at blinding speed as Wilkins speaks the following line in a slightly distorted voice.
Wilkins : Countess Marguerite Isobel Theroux. You have been found guilty of practicing the darkest art. Witchcraft. I hereby condemn you to burn in the fires of Hell.
A shot of the charcoal rubbing of Isobel's face from her tomb. The face bears a strong resemblance to Lana.
Several of the townspeople from 17th century France standing around the pyre, looking silently at Isobel. A shot of Isobel's face as she looks down at them.
A shot of the blood from Isobel's mouth splattering on the symbol in her spell book. Another townsperson watching the burning.
A shot of Lana in her hotel room in Paris noticing the symbol on her back in the mirror for the first time
Another shot of Magistrate Wilkins standing at the head of the crowd which stands at the foot of the pyre. A woman steps out of the crowd, coming to the front.
A shot of one of the guards holding his ax and staring at Isobel angrily. A shot of the tattoo on Lana's back. A shot of an old man watching the burning and then a close up of Wilkins' face as he says the word "Witchcraft."
A zooming close up of Isobel's eye, and then a shot of the cover of her spell book. Another shot of Wilkins' face and then a return to Isobel's eye, backing up to see her whole face.
A shot of the tattoo on Isobel's lower back as she struggles against the ropes holding her to the stake.
A townsperson holding his hand to his head in distress as another man stands next to him, indifferent.
A shot of Isobel tied to the stake, then a quick cut to the burning pyre.
Close up of Wilkins as he says "Fires of Hell."
A shot of Lana kneeling over Isobel's tomb in the Paris church at the first moment that the white energy of Isobel's power overtook her.
The woman who walked to the front of the angry mob speaks to Isobel in French.
Woman : Tu m'as trahis Isobel, maintenant tu vas mourir. [You have betrayed me Isobel, so now you are going to die]
A shot of Lana touching the symbol on Isobel's tomb and throwing her head back in pain.
A shot of the guard lighting the pyre. As the flames begin to surround her, Isobel smiles at the woman who just spoke to her. The woman gazes back at Isobel with a lopsided smile, and when she blinks, her eyes turn an enchanted shade of pink.
Another quaking shot of Isobel's face as she strains against the ropes. A shot of the burning pyre, and then a reddened shot of Isobel's eye. All is then engulfed in an explosion of flame.
Cut to Lana jolting upright in bed with a gasp. She is breathless and covered in sweat.
Act 1 Scene 3
Outside shot of Kansas State Penitentiary. Day. Inside, Clark enters the visiting area and looks at the upper floor where Lionel is standing. Lionel smiles down at him and comes down the stairs.
Lionel : Clark, thank you for coming. It's good to see you.
He offers his hand to Clark. Clark doesn't shake it, and Lionel nods to show that he understands. He gestures to the table and they sit on opposite sides of it.
Lionel : How's Lex? I've been trying to contact him since I heard, but he won't speak to me.
Clark : He thinks you're trying to frame him. Are you?
Lionel : No, Clark.
Clark : Why should I believe you?
Lionel : There's no reason you should.
Lionel tiredly covers his face with his hands and sighs.
Lionel : Listen to me. I was ill, Clark. The liver disease I had was a death sentence. And something happened. I can't explain it. I woke up on the floor. There was a riot. I... I felt as if... a different kind of energy had been... inside me. Something strong and... good. I was changed. [He laughs quietly.] And my liver had healed.
Clark : [Nervous.] What was it?
Lionel : I don't know. All I can say was... it was miraculous. I could see the darkness, the destructive power that had always been inside me. I can see it in Lex now. I have to help him, Clark.
Clark : Do you think he did it?
Lionel : No. This was a crime of passion. Or it was an elaborate frame. The girl, did she have a car?
Clark : Lex told the police that he took her to the hotel in his Ferrari.
Lionel : Then they'll look for her car at the opera house. They won't find it there. Lex has patterns. He would've had the girl drive her own car back to the hotel so he could slip away in the morning and wouldn't have to worry about taking her home. The patterns-- The girl, she had brown hair, yes? [Clark nods.] She reminded him of Lillian. It's his mother. You have to help him, Clark.
Clark : [Hesitant.] If I find this car...
Lionel : Anything you find, bring it to me. I can help you.
Clark : I'll see where it leads. [He stands up to leave.] But I still don't trust you.
Lionel : I know. But you will be back. Won't you?
Clark looks at Lionel without answering, then leaves.
Act 1 Scene 4
Martha is trying to use the cappuccino machine in the Talon. Day. She is having trouble with it as Lana walks up to the bar behind her.
Martha : Stupid, stupid.
Lana : I swear, one time, that thing actually bit me.
Martha : Oh, hi, Lana. It does take a certain touch. [Martha turns to face Lana.] Are you feeling all right? You look a little pale.
Lana : I just had this really weird dream last night. I can't seem to shake it.
Martha : Oh, I'm sorry, Lana. You have a visitor.
Martha gestures beyond Lana to a woman who is standing with her back to them. The woman is well dressed and very elegant.
Lana : [Disbelievingly.] She's here for me? [Martha nods.]
Lana looks at the woman again, then walks toward her.
Lana : Excuse me.
The woman turns around and we see that she is the same woman who spoke French to Isobel in Lana's dream. Her name is Geneniève Teague. She speaks in a British dialect.
Genevieve : Lana.
Lana recognizes her from the dream and looks very startled.
Genevieve : It's wonderful to finally meet you. You are beautiful.
Lana : I'm sorry. Do I know you?
Genevieve : I'm Jason's mother.
Lana makes a soft noise with her voice, exhaling sharply as her unease grows.
Genevieve : [Apologetic.] Did I catch you off guard?
Lana : [Quickly.] No, no. [Pause.] Yeah, actually. Um, you have a little. I just didn't know that he was expecting you.
Genevieve : Well, he isn't. Could we sit?
Lana : Sure. [Leading Genevieve to a table.] Would you like some tea?
Genevieve : Um, no thank you. [They sit.] I know this may sound impossibly British, but I just can't bring myself to drink tea from a mug. [She laughs.] Is that terrible?
Lana : No, of course not.
Genevieve : How's Jason? I haven't spoken to him since he left Paris, and he won't answer any of my calls. I'm afraid that, um, I'm afraid he thinks I'm angry with him.
Lana : You're not?
Genevieve : [Shaking her head.] I simply want to see him again.
Lana : Mrs. Teague, I... I've wanted to meet you. But if Jason isn't ready to be a part of your life, I don't think that I can either. Not behind his back.
Genevieve : [She nods, disappointed.] Well, the last thing in the world I want to do is to put you in the middle of all this, but... if you could just tell him that I'm here and that I'm staying at the Smallville Inn. Tell him I want to see him.
Lana : Sure.
Genevieve : Thanks.
Genevieve stands up to go. Lana stands too, and then Genevieve turns to her.
Genevieve : You know, it's interesting. A moment ago, when I first met you, you looked at me as though you recognized me. [Lana doesn't answer.] How can that be?
Lana shakes her head with a nervous smile. Genevieve smiles.
Genevieve : Goodbye, Lana. You must come and visit me in Metropolis. [She kisses Lana on the cheek.] You are so beautiful. I see now why he had to be with you.
Lana smiles and nods uncomfortably as Genevieve touches her shoulder, then leaves. When she is gone, Lana lets her smile go as she takes a deep breath.
Act 1 Scene 5
Outside shot of Smallville High School. Day. The bell rings as students go inside. Chloe walks through the hallway and into the Torch office where Clark is seated at the computer.
Chloe : Where have you been all afternoon?
Clark : I went to go see Lionel at the prison.
Chloe : Why? Are you backlogged with your community service hours or something?
Clark : No. Look, um, I know this is gonna sound crazy, but Lionel gave me a lead in Lex's case. He said that I could probably find the girl's car at the hotel, and I think I did. Check this out. [Clark hands Chloe a piece of paper.] There were 22 cars that were checked into the hotel valet that night after 10 PM when Lex said he left the opera. Now, of those cars, all but three were hotel guests, and of those three, two belonged to guys who had too much to drink at the hotel bar.
Chloe : Leaving one.
Clark : Exactly, but I haven't been able to trace her name or address.
Chloe : [Teasingly.] Why am I not surprised? Let me try.
Clark stands up and Chloe takes his seat at the computer.
Clark : You know what the weird thing is? The police aren't even looking into this.
Chloe : Well, of course not, Clark, they think that Lex is guilty and they've already got their man. But don't you think it's possible that this is all just a set up? I mean, Lionel Luthor goes all Hannibal Lector and tells you what to look for and where to find it?
Clark : I don't think so. Look, I can't explain this, but something happened to Lionel in prison. I think it changed him.
Chloe : [Skeptical.] Clark...
Clark : And what if he really can help?
Chloe : Clark, he's the master manipulator. You cannot trust him, okay? And besides, Lex is in great hands. I mean, he's got Corinne Harper leading his defense. They call her "The Barracuda." What he really needs is a good publicist. Have you seen this?
She hands Clark a newspaper with a headline that says "Luthor Sex Scandal Expands!"
Chloe : The police have interviewed over 13 women that have slept with Lex in the last year.
Clark looks hurt.
Chloe : What's wrong?
Clark : Lex told me that this little one night stand was something that never happens.
Chloe : And you believed him?
Clark : I gotta believe somebody, Chloe. [Clark notices something come up on the computer screen.] There it is.
Chloe turns around to face the screen and Clark kneels down next to her.
Chloe : [Reading.] Eve Andrews, age 28. Lives in Metropolis.
Cut to Clark super speeding down a sidewalk in Metropolis and coming to a stop outside a house. He enters through the front door which is unlocked.
Inside, we see dozens of pictures of Lex Luthor sitting on a counter. A hand covered by a black glove picks up one of the pictures and places it in a fire that is burning in the sink over the ashes of several pictures that have already been burned. We see that the person burning the pictures is Lex. Clark enters the kitchen behind him.
Clark : Lex. [Lex whips around.] What are you doing?
Lex : I'm saving my ass, Clark. What the hell are you doing here?
They hear police sirens approaching outside.
Lex : You've got to help me, please.
Clark is silent.
Fade to black.
Act 2 Scene 1
Outside shot of Lex's mansion. Day. Inside, Clark and Lex walk through the hallway toward Lex's study.
Clark : You were burning evidence, Lex. Not exactly actions of an innocent man.
Lex : [Turning to face Clark.] Come on, Clark! Think about it. If I killed that girl, why would I take a nap next to her body? So the maid could find me? It doesn't make any sense.
Clark : Neither does breaking into her house, but you did that. You better be honest with me, because right now, I'm an accomplice.
Lex : I didn't ask you to show up. How did you even know to go there?
Lex turns away from Clark and enters the study. Clark follows.
Clark : I tracked down her car.
Lex : Did you call the cops too?
Clark : No.
Lex : Because this is gonna be all over the six o'clock news now.
Clark : Why'd you go there, Lex?
Lex : I got a call from Corinne's office saying they had a lead on an address. I thought maybe I could find out who she was. I had no idea what I was walking into. [He starts to make a drink.]
Clark : What did you find out?
Lex : Her name's Eve Andrews. And as you could tell from the stack of photos, she's been stalking me for some time.
Clark : So you did know her.
Lex : No. Only by name, which she failed to tell me at the fundraiser. So how was I supposed to know? Clark, you know I didn't do this. It's my father trying to get back at me. He knows about all these stalkers. LuthorCorp's lawyers compiled a database of them last year. My father knew Eve would be the perfect victim to make it look like I had motive.
Clark : I don't think it's your father, Lex. I went to see him. He wants to help.
Lex is silent for a moment in disbelief.
Lex : He was the one who sent you looking for her car, wasn't he?
Clark : Yes.
Lex : You're playing right into his hands.
Clark : [Arguing.] Lex--
Lex : [Angry.] You can't straddle the fence on this one, Clark! My father and I are enemies. You have to decide who you really trust.
Startled, Clark stares at Lex, unable to answer.
Act 2 Scene 2
Chloe and Clark are in the Torch office. Night.
Chloe : She was stalking him, and he didn't know what she looked like?
Clark : He said he'd never seen her before. Lex lied about a lot of things. He lied about all those women. Do you think he could've done it?
Chloe : I'd have to say the whole fire starter thing doesn't exactly scream innocence, but there's something really strange about this. Look at this.
Chloe leads Clark to her computer and clicks the mouse, starting the video taken by the elevator security camera of Lex and the woman kissing.
Clark : Wait, I thought Lex's attorneys would have all this under lock and key.
Chloe : Yeah, well, she may know people at the top, but I know people at the bottom, and they work for tips. Check this out. See?
Chloe pauses the video at a point where Lex is kissing the woman's neck and her face is turned up toward the camera with both of her ears in sight.
Chloe : [Pointing to the screen.] She's wearing two diamond earrings. See that?
Clark : Yeah.
Chloe : Okay, now, we're gonna skip through all this gross Zalman King stuff.
Clark smiles at Chloe's comment as she speeds up the video through all the kissing.
Chloe : Just before they get out of the elevator onto the penthouse floor, and look.
She pauses the video and zooms in again. She points to the screen and we see one of the woman's ears is bare.
Clark : She lost an earring.
Chloe : Exactly. Now, the police report said that the dead woman was wearing two diamond earrings. So either she found it, or--
Clark : Lex was with two different women.
Chloe nods.
Act 2 Scene 3
Lex and his lawyer Corinne are in Lex's study. Night. Corinne is talking on her cell phone and Lex sits on a sofa next to the fireplace.
Corinne : Thank you, Shannon.
She hangs up the phone and walks around the sofa as she talks to Lex.
Corinne : That was my assistant. Your tox screen came back negative, Lex. There were no drugs in your system.
Lex : So it left my system or the test was altered. That's certainly not beyond my father's capability.
Corinne : They've got you lying next to the body covered in blood, and now that they've IDed the victim, they also have motive.
Lex : Why, because she was stalking me?
Corinne : Yes! Do you even know why she was stalking you, Lex? Because you slept with her 18 months ago. And then you sent her a pair of diamond earrings as a consolation prize. How could you not remember her?
Lex is shocked.
Lex : [Guiltily.] I don't always get their names or remember their faces.
Corinne : I suppose it doesn't help that we all look alike, does it? I was your type too, Lex, or don't you remember that either?
Lex : [He stands.] I remember, Corinne.
Corinne : [Sarcastic.] Ooh. Goodie for me.
Lex : [Aggravated.] You know, you must be enjoying this on some level, seeing me pay for my indiscretions.
Corinne : Yeah, I'd be lying if I said there wasn't a certain amount of satisfaction seeing you hoisted on your own petard.
Lex : On the plus side, the view from up here is exceedingly clear. You see, I've been thinking that whoever did this would need to have access to my legal files to know Eve was stalking me. [Accusatory.] I thought it was my dad, but maybe I was wrong.
Corinne rolls her eyes dismissively. He walks toward her, not letting the issue drop.
Lex : That database was your project, wasn't it?
Corinne : You know what? I knew there might be a conflict of interest when I took this case. But I'd hoped we got past all that. Apparently, I was wrong.
Corinne walks to the coffee table where her open briefcase is sitting. She slams it shut and picks it up.
Corinne : I'm removing myself as your attorney.
She leaves the study. Lex's agitation increases.
Act 2 Scene 4
Outside shot of Metropolis. Night. Clark and Chloe are in the hotel where Lex took the mystery woman before she was killed. They walk toward the bank of elevators and Chloe pushes the button.
Chloe : So the police still haven't picked up on the missing earring thing, and according to the people at the front desk, they haven't found anything yet. So that's where we're at.
A soft ding is heard as an elevator arrives and the door slides open. Clark and Chloe step inside the empty elevator and Chloe pushes a button inside.
Clark : [Looking around.] Well, if I were an earring...
The door slides shut and the car starts to ascend.
Chloe : Let's re-enact the event, okay? [Gesturing to the side of the elevator.] So Lex had Eve up against this wall right here, so...
Chloe stand up against the wall as if she is Eve, and waits for Clark to join her. Clark looks at her awkwardly.
Chloe : Okay, come on, big boy, it's for the cause of truth and justice. Now, push me up against the wall.
Clark : I don't--
Chloe takes Clark by the hand and pulls him back toward the wall. He bumps into her intimately, looking extremely uncomfortable. Chloe doesn't acknowledge his discomfort and keeps talking in a businesslike manner.
Chloe : And her hand was like this... [Chloe puts her right hand on Clark's shoulder.] ...and I think his hand was like this.
She takes Clark's right hand and puts it on her face.
Chloe : And they were...
With her free hand, Chloe feels up and down Clark's back trying to find the right position. Clark becomes even more embarrassed.
Clark : Maybe he knocked the earring off accidentally.
Chloe : Yeah. Yeah, and then she pushed him up against this wall over here like this.
Chloe pushes Clark across the elevator and up against another wall. When she and Clark are again standing face to face, she finally seems to notice their closeness, and her attraction to him comes out.
Chloe : [Quietly.] Hi.
They stand with their faces very close for a long moment, looking into each other's eyes timidly. Then the elevator dings and the door slides open. Standing outside is a woman with her young twin daughters.
Woman : Oh, my.
Clark : [Pulling away from Chloe quickly.] It's okay. You can come in.
Woman : Um, no, that's fine. We'll just, uh, take the stairs.
The woman starts hurriedly escorting her girls toward the stairs. Chloe steps out of the elevator to speak to the woman.
Chloe : No, but nothing was happening! We weren't doing anything, really!
The woman looks at Chloe one more time, and pushes her daughters around the corner. Chloe steps back onto the elevator, but remaining in the doorway so that the door cannot shut. She looks down at the threshold between the elevator car and the level they are on and a thought occurs to her. She kneels down.
Chloe : Hey, Clark. What if the earring fell down this crack?
Clark looks through the floor of the elevator with his X-ray vision. His sight zooms all the way down the elevator shaft to the ground floor where he sees a single diamond earring on the ground.
Act 2 Scene 5
Clark and Lionel are visiting at the prison. Day. Lionel is holding the diamond earring and looking at it closely.
Lionel : I'm glad you came back, Clark. But why did you bring me this?
Clark : I didn't think Lex would tell me the truth.
Lionel : And you believe that I will?
Clark : Well, you wanted to help. I'm trusting you. That belonged to the girl who Lex met at the opera.
Lionel : Eve Andrews, yes?
Clark : Well, that's the thing. Eve Andrews was wearing two earrings when she died. I think there's two girls, and I think the girl in the elevator is still alive. I just don't know how to find her.
Lionel is silent as he studies the diamond earring again. He realizes something.
Lionel : Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. When I was younger, and I wanted to get rid of a woman, I would send her a pair of diamond earrings delivered by courier. No messy farewells. It was my signature. My son, it seems, is carrying on the tradition. The girl on the elevator is a former lover of Lex's. [He gives the earring back to Clark.] She's the killer.
Clark's eyes widen as he looks at Lionel.
Act 2 Scene 6
A mini tape recorder is playing on the desk in Corinne's office. Night. The tape is of a man's voice reading off facts from legal cases. Corinne is seated in her swivel chair which is turned away from the desk. All we see is the back of her head peeking up over the top of the chair. It is after hours in the office and no one else is around. Lex comes in to the building and enters the double glass doors that lead to a small reception area outside Corinne's office. He looks through the window next to Corinne's office door and knocks, then steps inside.
Lex : Okay, Corinne, I'm here. What's this new evidence you want to talk about? [She doesn't turn around.] First you quit, now you're back. Look, I came along way. What do you want?
Lex walks toward the desk and Corinne doesn't answer.
Lex : Come on.
Lex impatiently grabs her chair and turns it around, finding that blood is smeared down Corinne's front from her throat which has been cut. Lex backs away with a start.
As he walks toward the door to the office and out into the reception area, he pulls his cell phone out of his coat pocket and dials. A woman picks up. Lex paces frantically as he talks, looking around the office in a panic.
Woman : 911 Emergency.
Lex : Yeah, uh, someone's been killed.
Woman : I'm sorry, all lines are busy at the moment. Please hold for the first emergency operator.
Lex looks down at a table next to the wall and sees the pink MP3 player sitting there. It is turned on and he can faintly hear music coming from the ear buds, the same song the woman played for him before they slept together.
Shocked, he touches the player lightly with one finger. Then he picks up one of the ear buds and holds it to his ear. Then the shot circles around Lex and we see that a woman is standing in front of him pointing a gun at him. It is Shannon, Corinne's assistant. She gestures with the gun for Lex to hang up his cell phone. He does.
Lex : What are you doing?
Shannon : What's wrong, Lex? Don't you recognize me?
Shannon's hair is pulled up tightly behind her head and she is wearing glasses. She lets her hair down and takes off her glasses revealing that she is the woman Lex took back to the hotel. She strikes Lex across the face with the butt of her gun and he falls to the floor, unconscious. Shannon stares down at him with a sadistic grin.
Fade to black.
Act 3 Scene 1
Lex is unconscious and tied to a chair which is sitting in the middle of the floor of his study at the mansion. Night. There is a square of electrical tape placed over his mouth, and he slowly regains consciousness. Shannon is standing near him, pointing the gun at his face.
Shannon : Promise to be quiet?
Lex nods and Shannon rips the tape off of his mouth.
Shannon : Welcome home.
Lex : How'd you get past my security?
Shannon : I work for your law firm, Lex. I told them that you'd been drinking in Metropolis and you needed a ride home. [She laughs quietly.] They helped me carry you up here.
Lex : Why here? Why are you doing this?
Shannon : Because this is where it all happened. This is where I earned my earrings... the first time. You see, you remember the other night, but you don't remember the first time. I do. [She puts the gun down on a table.] I had a fiance, but you didn't know that. I cheated on him with you because I thought that you loved me. [She kneels next to Lex.] And when I broke it off with him, I called to tell you that, but you wouldn't take my call.
Lex : I'm sorry. If I had known--
Shannon : [Becoming more upset.] But you didn't. And then three months later, I bump into your outside of Corinne's office and you don't even recognize me. It was like I never happened to you.
She stands up and walks behind Lex, touching his shoulder.
Shannon : And so I started going through your files. It turns out I wasn't the only one.
Lex : Eve Andrews.
Shannon : Among others. She was such a fan. I told her that you wanted to make amends, and she agreed to come to the hotel. And then I slipped a little something into your champagne after we made love. It's funny your blood test didn't pick that up.
Lex : You rigged the test.
Shannon : I just switched out the results.
Lex : You were the one who sent me to her place. You called the police.
Shannon : You were supposed to get caught. But you didn't. And so here we are.
Lex struggles against his bindings, angrily trying to get free.
Act 3 Scene 2
Outside shot of the Talon. Night. Lana is sitting on the couch in her apartment staring at the fireplace distantly. Jason kneels down in front of her.
Jason : Hey. What's wrong? You haven't said anything all night. [Lana doesn't respond.] Talk to me.
Lana : [Softly.] I met your mom.
Jason : Where?
Lana : Here. She, um, she said that you weren't returning her calls, so she came to see me. She's staying at the Smallville Inn, wants you stop by.
Jason : Why didn't you tell me earlier?
Lana : I don't know. I guess, um... Maybe I don't want to be the one passing notes between you and your mother.
She stands up and walks away from Jason toward the fire.
Jason : I wouldn't have asked you to do that. She had no right to come here. Sorry.
Lana : She seemed really worried about you.
Jason : [Spiteful.] I'll bet she did. I'll be she seemed sad and heartbroken. But she's not. She's manipulative. And all my life, she's tried to control me.
Lana looks upset.
Jason : What, is there something else?
Lana : [Fearful.] I dreamed about her. I mean, I was dreaming about Isobel Theroux. She was being burned at the stake. And suddenly, your mom was there.
Jason : Well, it's probably not that unusual to dream about someone you just met.
Lana : Jason... I dreamt about her before I met her.
Jason looks at Lana disbelievingly.
Act 3 Scene 3
Clark and Chloe are looking at the diamond earring through a microscope in the Torch office. Night. They are looking at a series of numbers and letters engraved on the diamond, too small for the human eye to see.
Clark : There it is. Just like he said.
Chloe : How do they get the serial number so small? It's Lilliputian.
Clark : Lasers. Lionel said all the high-end diamond dealers do it. In case it ever gets lost or stolen, you can track it down.
Chloe : Or it can track you down. [The FAX machine starts printing a page.] Oh. [She goes to it.] I still can't believe that Lionel actually called his old jewelry guy and had him send over the purchase orders.
Chloe picks up the FAX pages and looks at them.
Chloe : All right, give me the numbers.
Clark : [Reading from the diamond serial number.] 7-2-2-D-J-S-3-9-7-0.
Chloe finds a matching number on the page.
Chloe : Here we go. Two diamond earrings. Wow, very expensive. Couriered to Miss Shannon Bell.
Clark : Shannon Bell. How do I know that name?
Chloe : Well, according to this, she works in Lex's law firm.
Clark : We have to warn him.
Chloe : I'll call the police.
Just as Chloe turns away from Clark to grab her phone from the desk, we hear Clark super speed away. Chloe dials the police and turns around, seeing that Clark is gone. She makes a small annoyed sound, but does not look at all surprised.
Act 3 Scene 4
Shannon and Lex at the mansion. Night. Lex is still tied to the chair, and Shannon walks toward him with two open bottles of alcohol, one in each hand. She has replaced the electrical tape on Lex's mouth.
Shannon : You know you could've stopped all this, Lex. All you had to do was recognize me outside of the opera. [She splashes a little of the liquor into Lex's lap, and he moans angrily.] Just say, "Hi, Shannon. It's nice to see you." But you didn't.
She circles him, pouring the liquor all over him.
Shannon : I was wearing the earrings that you bought me. We had sex again and you still didn't recognize me!
Shannon walks back to the table and picks up another bottle of liquor. She pulls out the cork and pours it all over the floor in a circle around Lex.
Shannon : I had a life, Lex. I had a fiancé. [Hurt laughter.] You ruined my life, and you didn't even know who I was. And you do this all the time.
After making a full circle, she puts the empty liquor bottle back on the table. Then she picks up a lit taper candle and walks toward Lex. He becomes even more fearful when he realizes what she is about to do. He tries to speak, but his words are muffled by the tape. She ignores him as he tries to beg for his life and walks a good distance past him, until she is standing behind him and outside the circle of alcohol. She starts to tip the candle.
Shannon : It has to stop.
She lets the candle fall from her hand and it lands on the wet floor, immediately starting the alcohol on fire. The fire quickly spreads in a circle, surrounding Lex, blazing almost as high as his face.
Clark super speeds into the room and sees what is happening. Both Lex and Shannon are facing away from him and don't see him enter. He super speeds toward Shannon and pushes her away from the flames. Then we see Clark move in slow motion as everything around him seems to stop. Shannon is in mid flight toward the wall. Lex is seated in the middle of the unmoving flames. Clark takes off his jacket starts to wave it above his head like a propeller.
The wind caused by his jacket sweeps all of the flames toward him until they leave the ground completely and distinguish themselves in the air. Then he super speeds out of the room.
Shannon finishes her descent to the ground and the impact knocks her unconscious. Lex is still in the chair breathing heavily with his eyes shut tightly, still anticipating the fire. He finally opens his eyes and looks around with surprise. The fire is gone and all that remains are several thin clouds of smoke and a burnt black ring around him on the floor.
Fade to black.
Act 4 Scene 1
Outside shot of the Kent farm. Day. Jonathan is in the kitchen reading the front page of the Daily Planet. There is a picture of Lex and a headline that says, "Luthor Acquitted of Double Homicide." Martha is pouring a cup of coffee, and Clark is in the kitchen also.
Jonathan : I'm glad Lex was found innocent, but I sure wish you would've come to us before you got yourself involved.
Clark : Well, at first, Dad, I just wanted to help. Then I had to figure out if I could trust him or not.
Martha : What did you decide?
Martha hands the cup of coffee and a bottle of honey over the counter to Jonathan.
Clark : [Sad.] I haven't. I mean, the way he treated those women... It showed me a side of Lex I hadn't seen before. I mean, how could you just not care that you hurt someone?
Jonathan : He's just following what he's learned, son. That's all.
Clark : There's something else you should know. I went to see Lionel.
Martha : What?
Clark : He wanted to help Lex, and he did. I couldn't have done it without him.
Jonathan : Clark. You know how dangerous that man is to you.
Clark : But, Dad, that's the thing. I think he's changed. And his liver's healed.
Martha : I thought his condition was terminal.
Clark : I think something in me actually healed him.
Jonathan : [Stunned.] Clark, does Lionel know about this?
Clark : No. He actually thinks it's a miracle.
Martha : It is.
Clark : Look, I know this sounds crazy, but I really think he has changed. I could see it in his eyes.
Jonathan : Clark, as far as I'm concerned, Lionel Luthor is never gonna change, and neither is Lex. Now, we're just gonna have to accept that.
Clark looks from Jonathan to Martha noncommittally.
Act 4 Scene 2
Lex enters the visiting area of the prison. Day. Lionel is waiting for him at the table with his back turned. Lex walks to the table.
Lex : I understand you helped vindicate me, Dad. [Lionel turns around.] There's just no telling the influence you seem to have from behind these bars.
Lionel : I pointed your friend Clark in the right direction. That's all I did. You still believe I had something to do with this, don't you?
Lex : No. I just assume you must want something in return.
Lionel : Yes. [He smiles.] Yes, I do.
Lex : [Coldly.] I'm not helping you get released.
Lionel : No, you don't understand. I know that I deserve to be here, in this terrible place. I have no one to blame but myself.
Lex finally sits down across from Lionel with a heavy sigh. He smiles to himself as if he doesn't believe what he is about to say.
Lex : I'm in a generous mood, Dad. So let's say I believe that. [He leans forward.] What do you want from me?
Lionel : I want to be your father, Lex. If you'll let me.
Lex : [Lowering his eyes.] You've got your health, Dad. Don't expect another miracle.
Lex says these last words while looking straight into Lionel's eyes, and he holds that gaze for another moment as if to let the sting set in. Then he gets up from the table and starts to go. He stops and turns around.
He looks at Lionel for a long time, wanting to say something. Lionel looks up at him silently, hoping.
One more beat, and the moment is gone. Lex turns away from his father and leaves the prison. Lionel clasps his hands together in front of his mouth sadly and lowers his head onto his knuckles. The harsh clanging noise made by the opening and closing of cell doors is all that is left.
Act 4 Scene 3
Outside shot of Clark's loft. Night. Clark stands at the open window and stares out with his arms folded over his chest. He hears someone entering behind him and turns to see Lex coming up the stairs. Then he turns away from Lex and back to the stars. Lex remains at the top of the stairs.
Lex : I wanted to say thank you. And I'm sorry. I know you were only trying to help me.
Clark : [Turning back to Lex.] How long is this gonna continue, Lex?
Lex : I don't know. What do you want me to tell you?
Lex walks to Clark's side and looks forlornly out the window.
Clark : [Quietly angry, hurt.] I don't want you to tell me anything. I want you to change.
Lex : I don't know if I can.
Clark : You know, it seems the only person you care about is yourself. There's a whole side of you that I don't know about, Lex. And what else don't I know about you?
Lex : You don't know that every day, I wonder why I keep going. Why I do the things I do. You know, Shannon might have been crazy, but she was right about me. I treated those women terribly, Clark. People died, and I could've stopped it. I see that now.
Clark : Well, that's a start.
Lex : You know, there was a moment the other night when that fire she set was coming towards me. I thought, good. It would save the world a lot of grief. But somehow, the fire went out. And she was lying on the floor. And suddenly, I had a second chance.
Clark : The last few days, Lex, I... I thought your father was being more honest with me than you were. And I hated that feeling. I felt like we were enemies.
Lex : [Looking into Clark's eyes pleadingly.] Don't give up on me yet.
Clark returns his gaze.
Act 4 Scene 4
Jason comes out of the Talon through the backdoor into the alley. Night. The rain is pouring down. In the alley, there is a chauffeur standing under an umbrella next to a parked car. Jason comes to the car and the man opens the back door for him. Jason gets inside and sits down next to his mother, Genevieve. She smiles at him.
Jason : What are you doing here, Mother?
Genevieve : I know you don't want to talk to me, Jason. But every mother has a right to see her own son.
There is a thunderclap and flash of lightning. The light reflects off of Genevieve's red coat and casts a strange red glow onto Jason's face that is gone almost immediately.
Jason : You didn't come here to see me.
Genevieve : Is it so terrible to want to meet your girlfriend?
Jason : It's the way you go about it. But I'm not gonna let you do it this time. Because it's different. [Another flash of lightning.] I will come see you when I'm ready.
Genevieve : When will that be?
Jason : I don't know. But you can't come back here.
Genevieve : I just want you to know, Jason, that I'm really glad that you're happy. I mean, Lana is... an enchanting girl. I can see why you moved to the middle of nowhere to be with her. I mean, she's... She's special.
A third lightning flash makes Genevieve's face impossibly pale for only an instant.
Genevieve : I knew you'd meet someone like her one day.
Jason looks at Genevieve for a few seconds, processing what she just said.
Jason : Did I meet her by accident, or not? [Lightning.]
Genevieve : [Laughing.] What on earth are you implying? Of course you did, Jason. How else could you meet her?
Genevieve leans across the seat and kisses Jason on the cheek, dismissing his question. He remains very still, unconvinced that her answer is the truth.
Genevieve : I'll wait to hear from you.
The lightning holds a fairly steady rhythm as mother and son share a last look, and then Jason gets out of the car. He walks a few feet away, then turns back as the chauffeur gets into the driver's seat and starts the engine.
Even as the car drives away, Jason remains in the middle of the alleyway in the pouring rain.

Debate over Spending Bill in Senate
Democratic leaders are divided over the issue of giving support to the Legislation for a Bill, which focuses on increasing the benefits to the unemployed people. This will restrict the Bill's affect on the deficit as it reduces the capacity of having a new tax on saving managers.
Max Baucus, Senate Finance Chairman, revealed about the alterations, a few hours after a test vote depicted apprehension among both parties regarding the comprehensive legislation.
The Bill will be instrumental in recovering the unemployment benefits which had failed earlier. It will also give help to the states which are facing a financial crunch and will restore some tax breaks that had expired by the end of the year 2009.
However, a bureaucratic matter that in fact became a referendum on the legislation, failed on a 52 to 45 vote. Thus, it was not able to lure a simple majority of the Senate.
As it lacked the backing of the leaders, the Democrats shifted to give payment advantages to the unemployed people.
Senator Baucus seemed optimistic that the move would enhance support between Democrats and some Republicans. Thus, if the Bill is able to garner sufficient support, it will be passed by the Senate. Mr. Baucus is of the view that the Bill will get above 60 votes, which it requires to move to the next stage.

Rent budget
Preferred stay length
Move date
My name is Scarlett, 26 years, half German and half American, just finished my Master's degree in Business Development and am here on a working holiday visa. I found a full-time job in an Italian cafe here in Melbourne and am planning on staying until Nov 22/23. I am currently in a hostel and would just like to save some money and have a nicer place while I am here. My room there is booked until Oct 31 which is why I am looking for something asap. I am a talkative and fun yet responsible person, always down for a little chat or game. I have a lot of experience when it comes to living with other people (from all over the world), so certain standards of hygiene and privacy will of course be upheld. ;-) I am not a party girl, especially now that I am working full time.
Message me for more information :)

Bento #28
Beef ravioli, steamed broccoli, nuts & raisins and yet another two bite brownie.
Maisie has decided that she likes peanuts, almonds and cashews and thinks of them as a big treat. I have also found that because the beef in ravioli is so finely ground and there's not too much in there, Maisie's decided that she likes them and hey, it allows me to get some meat into her, yeah!
A couple of the ravioli went uneaten from this bento.

Lisa, I have to ask: what's a two bite brownie? Is that a literal name for a itty bitty tiny brownie?
Love the bento posts!!!

Spurious trend switching phenomena in financial markets
The observation of power laws in the time to extrema of volatility, volume and intertrade times, from milliseconds to years, are shown to result straightforwardly from the selection of biased statistical subsets of realizations in otherwise featureless processes such as random walks. The bias stems from the selection of price peaks that imposes a condition on the statistics of price change and of trade volumes that skew their distributions. For the intertrade times, the extrema and power laws results from the format of transaction data.
