Yeah, Commander,

I'm starting to wonder

if we got the wrong

Henshaw in charge.

Guys, I'm happy to let

Terri call the shots,

but I got to warn you, I'm

considered the nice Henshaw.

Yeah, right.

Terri, give Houston a call.

Looks like they were right

about the hydraulic struts.

The launch vibration probably

knocked some screws loose.

Knocked some screws

loose. Very technical.

Well, I'm sure you can science

that up a bit, Madam Engineer.

Houston, this is Excalibur.

Come in, Houston.

Come on,

Space Rangers.

Last looks before

we head back in.

It's your ninth trip up here, boss.

You can't still be dazzled.

I'm just looking

for a red cape.

You can see it

if he's above the exosphere.

He's been up here twice, you know.

Saved my ass one time.

Yes, sir. You can

always count on Superman.

I hate to

interrupt your plans.

How was your night

in the town, Mr. Luthor?

Phenomenal, Gregory.

But then again, every private

performance by the Bolshoi

is a little better

when it's forbidden.

Do you have something for me?

Uh...

Right.

Sometimes I forget which one of us the

government's placed under house arrest.

I don't.

Hank? They need you

back online. Important.

Henshaw here. What's up?

Oh, hell!

We've got unidentified

debris heading our way.

Everyone, back

to the ship. Now!

Leave it!

Always happy to walk among the

greatest minds of this generation.

That's why I bought them.

That specimen's clearly

porphyritic rock.

Read a book, you clod.

At last, someone understands

Euclid's fifth postulate.

Too bad it's not you.

I do not suffer fools, people.

The world is filled

with too many already,

obsequious cretans

who worship aliens,

believing them to be

the agents of justice.

But I have seen the alien's true face.

I understand his threat.

In spite of false conviction at

the hands of these vigilantes,

LexCorp has stayed on mission,

redoubling its efforts

to find the next

alien Ubermensch

and crush it

in its infancy.

- Now, show me what you've found.

- Okay.

They hacked into Houston's

encrypted feed

from the Excalibur shuttle, and

something's heading our way.

We've got 30 seconds.

You need to fire engines now!

I'd like to see what they're running

away from. We have a satellite nearby?

Enlarge.

Does that asteroid look

unusual to you?

- It looks lumpy.

- Hmm.

I was going

to say pregnant.

Tether's still attached,

Bay door's open. 12 degrees.

I don't care. Initiate

primary thrusters now!

Captain, impact! We're breaking up!

We lost starboard

thrusters and...

Oh, my God, Hank,

we're not gonna make it.

- What do you say, Captain?

- Like hell, we're not!

Superman will save us,
