Back to lexcorp,Lord havoc and his 2 boi's comes before lex with the employee. They demand to know where kal-el is, but luthor wont be forced so havoc shows whose boss and luthor realizes they want superman as they have the same powers he does. luthor isnt so quick to turn over who it is; at this point he still doesnt seem to mean supes harm. he says to come back tomorrow and hell tell them what they want and if they dont leave theyll never know; he tells the employee to give a place to hide out. Furious, havoc and his 2 friends leave, and walk right past Lois whose entering...superman words float through her head "lex isnt entirely good"...and she follows them; leaving Clark and Jimmy in a cab wondering what shes doing...but Clark thinks he knows...
Havoc is brought to a rundown lexcorp warehouse; where she follows them inside and listens to them talk about a need to murder kal-el..."whose kal-el" lios whispers...suddenly NIG has found her with his xray vision; Lois had no idea they were aliens...theyre about to rip her apart, limb from limb, when suddenly SUPERMAN crashes through a skylight and kicks em away; he head lois screams appearently...lois flees as superman fends them off. Havoc tells ty and nig not to let her get away. Lois gets to her brand new corvette lex bought her, back up, smashing into another a car, and peels out, onto the freeway fleeing! Superman is double teamed and beaten by ty and nig who flee to get Lois. Superman and Havoc eye eachother but superman leaves.
What follows is a midair freeway chase as Ty and Nig attempt to get to/destroy lois. They blow up cars and toss em aside, but superman keeps saving her. Eventually, superman has her outta the car and ty and nig detroy it, only to realise shes gone. Havoc is PISSED shes gone...
Meanwhile, we follow superman as he flies-lois in his arms having rescued her again-and he flies into the majestic fortressof solitude...lois wants to know if this is where he lives...this is her 3rd time with him, and after some chat about who they are, how powerful they are, supes says HES Kal-el; therefore theyre looking for him...the 3rd time the 2 are together alone and they FINALLY hook up! Kissing for a few brief seconds...feeling guilty now, Lois says she has to go.
At LOIS'S penthouse apartment across town, we see lex inside, waiting. watching the news. His "candlelit dinner" he set up (at her house, heh) a flop...she stood him up at her own place. But he sees why. On the news..they show superman flying her away from danger, and shows them flying over the oceans, "undoubtedly heaed for supermans place". Lex is now, finally...pissed. Jealous. Lois walks in from the balcony. "where have you been?". It starts slow, but lex FREAKS OUT and demands Lois not see him again. "Hes DANGEROUS!"-"HE SAVED MY LIFE how is he dangerous?"-"then why does the army want him dead?"... this is classic lex,a jealous, selfish ***** who intimidates the crap out of lois.
Back at lexcorp now, lex is pissed. he calls up Havoc, and says he wants superman dead. Havoc is ther in a second (he can fly). They say they need kryptonite, and also they need some sort of bait. what could they use??? close up of lex, as he looks at picture of him and LOIS...
SUPERMAN: THE LOST SON
Act II continued
Meanwhile, Clark is on fire! He feels like hes the man! He see's Lois at work and they chat briefly, Whites all over her to write a new article about the rescue. Lois is stressed and goes to the daily planet roof for a breather, and Clark sees it. As Superman, he flies up. The last time he saw Lois, the previous night, they hooked up and he dropped her off. Superman thinks things are going great. But Lois stress between her job, her boyfriend she feels loyal to, and Superman who is drawn to, has gotten to her. She tells Superman that her life was going great before he arrived, and ever since it's been headed in a direction she didnt expect and says she can no longer see him anymore, before heading back inside, her mind a mix of emotions.
Superman doesnt like it obviously, but he is superman. He respects her wishes. We then get a slow montage with music playing as Lois rides away in a limo with lex while superman flies away. Intercut shots of they're faces, as Superman eyes begin welling up as he flies away, faster and faster, while Lois watches Lex on his cell phone, shrewd businessman. She looks out the limo window and sees 2 teenagers dancing, seemingly having a great time. She doesnt know what she wants.
After the montage is over, its obvious to us niether are particulary happy about what just happened, though Lois's choice is understandable and Superman must act like that. Lex drops Lois off, and we see her going in...when suddenly Ty attacks her; knocking her out cold. Luthor and Havoc walk onto the scene, and Luthor makes Havoc promise she wont be hurt, and he nods.
Clark re-enters the Daily Planet, and it's now dusk. He tells white his article is done when he hears something strange...'Kal-ellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll". Clark knows who Kal-el is from the scriptures of krypton he has in the fortress, which he explained to lois (and us). Someone is calling for him in his native language!
Clark enters a stairwell, becomes superman and flies away! He traces the sound to the middle of the Sahara Desert where he sees Havoc cool, sleek space ship. Suddenly NIG attacks him, mauling him and tossing him over to Ty, who keeps the beat on going. He sent to the ground, and just as he tires to get up, LORD HAVOC has his foot on Supermans throat.
"Hello. Friend".
Superman tosses him off, and goes after him, but keeps getting detroyed. Ty and Nig hold him in mid air as Havoc beats the crap out of him, demamding to know where the kryptonion technology is. Superman has no idea wtf hes talking about, and Havoc doesnt like that! Havoc barks orders (in an alien language) to Ty and Nig and they fly off, and Superman goes to follow, but Havoc grabs him and throws him into the middle of downtown metropolis! Superman and Havoc fight, until Superman loses havoc amongst the skyscrappers-
we get to where we were at the very begining-superman hears the bank explode and lands, and we see a fast forward version of the first fight from different angles, and catch up with superman back at the museum of natuel history! What is making his scream, suffer, and die? LOIS is wrapped in a kryptonite neclace we saw on Havocs ship earlier, and is plunged in a large retaining pool! Superman, dying, smashes the tank. Lois is conscious and sees whats happening and the effect of the neclace on Superman, he but he seemingly dies right there. Lois is a mess, thinking he just died to save her, when suddenly luthor (and the police) arrive, they got there on "anonymous tip" and Havoc, Ty, and Nig are gone. Luthor acts like he has no idea what happened, and they turn to see Superman is gone...
SUPERMAN: THE LOST SON
Act III
The fight is global news and we see a montage of clips from news channels. Lois is once again the center of attention. Luthor protectivly shields her away from media outside her apartment as he guides her in. Back at the planet, Jimmy and co. are working late. The general consesus is both Havoc and Superman are missing. General Stuart Sutton has the U.S. on def con 1 for the night. Lois emotionally distraught, Lex asks her what happened-we get the feeling he may not even know exactly what went down- but she keeps quiet...brief flashback as we see lois knows the people who she thinks killed superman aeth same people who seaw walking utof lexs office...she knows hes involved.
Back at the fortress of solitude, we see a bloodied and dying superman arrive, crawling and pulling himself into the main chamber where the scriptures are. He opens them and begins going through the technology, when he activates-by accident- the jor-el hologram. Superman has never seen his father yet, and ghis father tells him of kryptons dismise. Flashback montage of krypton getting blown up, and back to superman, still hurt, who now knows why hes there.
In Metropolis, everyone wants to know what is going on! where is he? Lois returns to work, where she tells white she wont be writing an article on her previous superman episode...jimmy and her have a one on one for a minute, and jimmy asks if everything is ok. lois says she thinks that superman might never be coming back. Jimmy says thats bad ect, and Lois says she think she made a mistake; that everytime she was with superman things always felt like they would be ok. Her words seem final, as if she has some huge regret.
Back to Luthor, he ios talking with the army and preparing for his huge mega grand opening party that night. Sutton informs the army no longer has a need for his weapons and wont even pay his original price, which luthor is pissed about! The army states they feel with havoc and superman gone they have no reason to spend that much money on them. Lex is furious, and now Havoc corners him. Havoc is mad, he doesnt have his technology and superman is dead so how will he find it? The cunning and clever side of lex takes over, and he forms a deal Havoc cannot refuse. Havoc shows the us he is still around and a threat and therefore lex's weapons and tracking technology will be bought. Once bought, luthor will have power globally-and would "easily" be able to track down the man of steels whereabouts through the u.s. satilite records. But how can they show Havocs still a threat?
Close up on Luthor's face as he sees a ad for his huge concert and party the following night on metropolis square to open in his new building...
Back in the fortress, superman is in recovery suit and asks jor-el what technology havoc is after, and jor-el reveals it is rejuvinatgion powers, but it can only be used once. Superman can finish healing, which would be done in 2-3 weeks, or he can take it now...
back at metropolis, it now night and luthor rolls up to his party. Lois wouldnt go with him, electing to go with jimmy for work. There are 1000's of people on metropolis drive listening to a huge concert, ect, all for charity kicking off the opening of lexcorp global headquarters. Luthor walks up and begins speaking; and he warns misty "any minute now"...
Back in the fortress, supermans still in debate; he speaks to jor-el who advises him to wait and save the powers. The we pick up his superhearing: Back to Metropolis, lex's speech...out of the blue from above, lord havoc blows in, BLASSTAFF in hand; a sleek 2 sided weapon we saw in the very opening scene when he walks out of the bank. We are now about to witness what it does; Ty and Nig hover by him as the entire crowd watches; and after a minute ty and nig send flares-the blastaff shoots flares out of both ends, blowing cars sky high as every flees and runs for their lives; luthor included! An attack has begin! We find Jimmy Olsen and Lois down here covering it. Lois recognizes who it is and freaks out-. We find lex now ordering misty to command his weapons that hes selling-hes loaded them with kryptonite which he knows hurts the evil trio as they told him theyre suits protect form it; but in missiles that will shred theyre suits, their explosed, and he personally is going to have misty defeat the 3 and become a hero!
Back at the fortress, superman takes the rejuvination powers, suits up, and flies out! Back to Metropolis- Ty blows up a building, raining debris on the fleeing crowd! Shost of them running, fleeing-ty and nig taking police men as havoc watches over. Shots of superman sooming at 100000 miles per hour across the sea, towards a huge city in the distance...
Havoc tells Ty and Nig to continue it up; they all need to die. Ty blows up a building and the walls about to fall on a crowd, which includes Jimmy and Lois when suddenly its CAUGHT-Superman is there! He orders the crowd to flee-Lois is in amazement and Superman gives her a sad look, and leaves.
Luthor finds Lois and orders her to come with him; she doesnt know where to go but the fleein crowd-as well as jimmy and lex-pull her away. Menawhile, Superman goes and beats on ty and kicks nig much to the crowd applause and shock as superman has RETURNED, Havoc is pissed when the weapons go off-ty is incernated into thin air! Realizing they're ****'d, havoc shoots misty with his blasstaff while Lois and Jimmy see it. Meanwhile turns and MAULS superman-he is easily the best of the 4, and sends superman tumbling into a near by building, near death already. Lois sees this and sees thge fleeing people, and tries to go-Luthro wont let her and says its dangerous, but lois says "dont you understand? this is a massacre and he is our only hope! everyone here is going to die if we dont help him" but lex stares at her-finally she breaks free and runs-jimmy follows, and Lois tells him to check out lex's weapons!
We find SUPERMAN knocked cold on the first floor of a****ty abandoned building that is about to colloapse, lois enters and struggles through the collapsiong building to find him. Meanwhile, Lex runs up and barks to havoc to stop, that it is enough! But havoc doens tlisten, as lex just killed his friend-havioc punches luthor, who flies 35 feet across the street onto a car. Much of the crowd is now gone but there still many remain, now terrfied or in hiding.
Lois manages to drag out superman just as the building collapses, and he comes conscious. they look at eachother, and lois says she is sorry, and superman says he has to tell her something...and superman smiles and she shakes her head, and the two kiss briefly, before a huge explosion interupts theyre moment, and seperates them. Superman tells her to get outt athere and now motivated, goes to kick ass!
Back to Jimmy hes at the weapons, but now he has no idea how to use them! Superman meanwhile flies up from behind and underneath NIG AND GRABS HIS BLASTAFF-RIPS it in 2, firing both ends, fending off havoc and blowing nig to the ground, where jimmy activates the weapons and destroysd him! Havoc is the only one left! Pissed, Havoc BLOWS UP the weapons tower and jimmy hurtles out, badly hurt. We find lex, just becoming conscious, and sees whats going on-Supermans back! Uh-oh...
Superman catches havoc off guard-rips his blastaff apart- fight-they smash through buildings-supes going all out and pummeling eachother. Havoc grabs Superman by the cape and tosses him through a building, superman blows havoc across the street-superman wraps him in a phone wire and swing him through buildings flying in midair-collosal action!
Lois is helping Jimmy to his feet when suddenly LEX is there, gun in hand. He's ruined, his weapons failed, his party a disaster and his name ruined. He orders Lois and Jimmy with him, he has sort of sort of surprise, and they enter his building...
Superman sees it, and keeps fighting Havoc. Havoc throws a car at Superman, Superman throws havos thrown train tracks. Havoc then finds a piece of kryptonite from the missles, and goes to stab superman with it as they fly in midiar-a struggle- supermans about to be stabbed with it when he rips havocs uniform-his face explosed as it was in luthors office-the kryptonite incernates him horribly-havioc drops superman, screams and flies away! Shots of Havoc, as he flees out of Earth and into outer space, headed back to brainiac! Hes escaped, but he is gone for now...
Having won the fight, superman turns to find Lois. Everyone goes out and claps for theyre hero, and Superman asks perry white-on scene-where lois went and he says lex took em by gunpoint into his building.
The cops raid the first floor, but superman flies to the top-the 140th floor. Luthors penthouse. No power, its dark. Superman lands, looking for him...when suddenly he attacked by two of luthors men, superman takes em out. He finds Luthor, fully gone crazy, kryptonite in hand, Lois at gunpoint. Jimmy motionless on the floor, Lois looks terrified...theire on the huge balcony where lois and superman first really met...its tense and luthor mouths off, how he runs this city, ect. Superman looks down and sees jimmy eyes open-jimmy WINKS-he is OK-playing dead-superman moves instantly-luthor throws Lois off the edge-Olsen catches her barely as Lex-with kryptonite, tackles superman, punching and kicking ont the catwalks over the dome of his apartment. Luthor beats him ferouscily, hurting him with the krypronite as lois dangles for her life, jimmy barely holding her. Superman eye lasers a gas heating tank and it explodes-Luithor is blown away, landing hard on the pavement knocked out- the force sends Jimmy flying into the rail, hurt and sends lOis FALLING...
Superman dives over the building-people on the street in shock at the explosion from above-and superman dives, catching lois in a incredible arc at the last moment, over the huge crowd...shots of the crowd as they fly away, lois safely in supermans arms as lois says "what did you have to tell me"... and they look into eachothers eyes as they fly out of frame.
shots of masspeople walking metropolis square: 1 week later.
its night a large crowd has gathered outside of city hall where general sutton and few others are at a podium, and announce lex luthor has been arrested and superman is a national hero. Jimmy snaps pics. White finds Lois in the crowd, who informs perry shell be taking her vacation time and she walks away.
shots of lois walking down a deserted street, where she looks in a store window to see mass superman merchandise for sale.
she gets to her car, to find clark-nop glasses, in public ka-el mode we see in the fortress of solitude with lois- standing against it. They talk small, in private. Lois asks "are things going to be diferent?" and clark yes. The 2 kiss breifly but are interupts by Jimmy, and we see clarks vanished...we can now interpret the thingsuperman had to tell lois was that he is clark kent...jimmy gets in lois's car with her, and says "geez miss lanes, its too bad mr, kent is never around to see superman...hes always...hey waita minute...mr kent got here when superman did, hes gone when supermans here...you dont think" but Lois rols her eyes and says "jimmy, not in a million years". Pan back as they drive away, panning up the sky scrappers of metropolis, to see superman flying around the city, around the world, and into the camera.
the end
