Superman 4: The Quest for Peace Page #2

---

We're not being treated fairly.

I'm speaking to Lacy.

Me too.

Excuse me, Miss Warfield.

I speak for us all when I say

we'll do our best to cooperate.

Thank you.

But a reporter's first allegiance

is to the truth.

The people of this city depend on us

and we can't let them down.

Thank you.

Is he for real?

Oh, you have a thing for him.

For Clark?! No!

He's kind of cute.

Look, Miss Warfield...

...Clark is the oldest

living boy scout, okay?

He's trustworthy, he's helpful...

...he's loyal, he's obedient, he...

I don't know how to tell you this.

I just don't think he'd be attracted

to somebody like you.

Don't be silly. All men like me.

I'm very, very rich!

Why are there no air travel expenses

for you, Mr. Kent?

I get airsick, especially

when it's bumpy.

Lois, get in here!

Lois, explain this column of figures.

- The president is coming on live.

- What, right now?

- It won't be very good news.

- You always overreact.

- It won't be that terrible.

- Hopefully very terrible, Miss Lane.

We can double our circulation

with an international crisis.

And because the summit has failed...

... we have no choice but

to strive to be second to none...

... in the nuclear arms race.

Therefore, I am announcing

the following measures...

I know you're all upset

by the crisis.

The best thing we can do

is to try to think positively.

Now, is there anything we can do?

Doesn't anyone have a suggestion?

All right, I'll make a suggestion.

Why don't we write to our congressman?

- That'll do a lot of good.

- Somebody has to be an optimist.

Jeremy?

- What could we do about the crisis?

- He doesn't know what's going on.

I know who I'd write a letter to

that would do some good.

- Who? Santa Claus?

- No, Superman!

Superman, the subject

of our exhibit...

...has donated a strand

of his hair to the museum...

...so we can have the fun

of seeing how strong he really is.

Here you see a 1000-pound load...

...easily suspended

by his single hair.

The museum will be closing soon,

so we should hurry a little.

Know what I can do with a single

strand of Superman's hair?

You could make a toupee that flies.

That hair is a sample

of Superman's genetic material.

The building blocks of his body.

With my genius and enough nuclear

power to mutate the genes...

...I can create a being

who's more powerful than him.

With total allegiance to me.

You better stand back.

Keep your eye out.

- Miss Warfield, you wanted to see me?

- Hi, Clark. Please come in.

I've come up with a brilliant idea.

Oh, really?

Well, Daddy thinks it's brilliant.

I want you to write a new series

called "Metropolis After Hours."

Who, me? I...

It's wonderful. It's great, isn't it?
