651 Department of Water and Power, please. 652 7782, great. 653 Metropolis Public Works. 654 Hi, Stephen, Lois Lane from the Daily Planet. Blackout? 655 I just need a little info on a few outstanding power grids. 656 Yeah, I do have it here, actually. 657 So the uptown grid went dark at 12:36 and midtown 10 seconds before. 658 Which grid was hit first? 659 It just reads Vanderworth. 660 - Across the river? - 6 Springwood Drive. 661 6 Springwood Drive. A residence or a business? 662 - Residence. - Sure? Nothing before that? 663 - That's all it shows. - Thank you very much. 664 Oh, Jason. 665 - There's your mom, Jason. - You're late, Mommy. 666 Where are we? Is this the Pulitzer? 667 Nope. I've just gotta ask these people a few questions and then we can go. 668 Can I stay in the car? 669 No, honey. 670 - Are we trespassing? - No. Yes. 671 Hello? 672 Hello? 673 I like the curly one. 674 Let's go. This was a bad idea. 675 Lex Luthor. 676 Lois Lane? 677 You're bald. 678 And what is your name? 679 I'm not supposed to talk to strangers. 680 - Cute kid, and smart. - Thanks. 681 We're not really strangers, are we? This is kind of a little reunion. 682 Heck, I'm a fan. 683 I love your writing... 684 ...and your dress. - I love your boat. 685 How'd you get it? Swindle some widow out of her money? 686 That's funny. Didn't you win the Pulitzer Prize... 687 ...for my favorite article of all time, "Why the World Doesn't Need Superman"? 688 Didn't you have a few more years to go on that double life sentence? 689 Yes, well, we can thank the Man of Steel for that. 690 I mean, he's really good at swooping in and catching the bad guys... 691 ...but he's not so hot at the little things, like Miranda rights... 692 ...due process, making your court date. 693 Did you have anything to do with the blackout? 694 Are you fishing for an interview, Miss Lane? 695 It's been a while since you've been a headline. 696 Maybe it's time people knew your name again. 697 How about we turn this boat around, call a cab for my son... 698 ...and then you can do whatever you want with me. 699 No, I don't think we'll be turning around, Miss Lane... 700 ...which means that we do have some time to kill. |
