Smallville

Previously on "smallville"...

bless me, father, for i have sinned.

I have hurt many people...

- that i care about. - No more than three tablets a day.

They can be highly addictive.

Please, for your own good, get out of here now!

I put up with years of your taking someone else's side over mine...

first clark and then davis?

Marrying you was the biggest mistake of my life.

There is a savior among us. Until you fulfill your destiny,

he won't have his great challenge to overcome.

You were destined to kill each other.

Sorry about being the invisible best friend lately.

Just when i thought i'd hit my fill

of high-maintenance men, i take a job from oliver.

Watchtower is officially online.

There is something about being around you

that seems to calm the murderer inside me.

Will you stay with me?

We all have our inner demons...

... but we must learn to control them.

Davis, is everything okay?

Sorry if i woke you.

i had another one.

It's just a dream.

You know you're safe with me.

Could you come down anyway? I need to see you.

Of course. I'll be down right away.

You know, this isn't exactly the typical response to a bad dream.

Most people just get a night-light.

I wanted to surprise you.

It's beautiful.

But i don't remember ever seeing

a box of candles down here or flowers.

There weren't any.

Davis, we talked about this.

- You can't leave the basement. - I was careful.

I know how much you're risking by helping me. I only wanted to thank you.

I don't need thanks. I need to able to trust you.

I won't do it again. I'm sorry.

You've helped me when no one else would.

Well, friends help each other, right?

Friends help you move. They take you to the airport.

You can't think that's really all this is.

Okay, so maybe it was a 9.9 on the richter scale of favors,

but that doesn't change our relationship.

We met in a flurry of smoking ash, burnt-out cars,

people freaking out, but for a moment there,

it felt like everything disappeared except us.

Those feelings haven't changed.

I do care about you, davis.

- But... - Stay.

Please.

Without you, the man that i want to be doesn't exist.

Davis, is that blood?

What did you think was gonna happen?

No!

Smallville 820 "Beast"

you okay?

You can usually make cappuccinos blindfolded.

Yeah, i just didn't get my full seven hours of sleep last night.

And judging from the look on your face,

you didn't come here to join me for pancakes.

Tess named davis the serial killer.

She devoted the whole front page of today's paper to the story.

Headlines can't hurt davis now that he's dead.

That's the thing, chloe. I'm starting to believe that davis is still alive.

Come on, clark. We both watched him die.

- Oliver buried the body. - But it says in this article

they found one of bruno mannheim's thugs in a dumpster, torn apart,

the same way that doomsday dismembered his victims.

That body was probably there for weeks.

The murder happened after davis died.

I love a good ghost story just as much as the next girl,

but there has to be a more logical explanation

than the resurrection of an alien monster.

There could be a copycat killer.

Chloe, he's come back from the dead before.

Not from meteor rock.

Look, clark, i understand why you're paranoid. Davis was sent here to kill you.

I mean, that would make anyone believe there were monsters under their bed.

It doesn't change the fact that davis is a murderer.

But, clark, davis is dead,

and the only thing that's keeping him alive in your mind is fear.

Let him go.

Gentlemen, luthorcorp is going green, and i certainly don't want all the old-money investors

to think we're wasting all of their money on hemp bracelets, so...

we could send some cameras into the geothermal energy facility.

It's innovative. It's profitable.

Okay, perfect. Call tess. Arrange a press release.

Nothing screams "photo op" like a 10-mile hole in the ground, right?

Hey, oliver, um, can we talk for a quick sec?

not the greatest time right now, actually.

I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important.

Okay. All right.

Gentlemen, excuse me.

- Thank you. - I'm sorry to barge in on your lunch...

yeah, jimmy, listen, those guys aren't my frat brothers.

- I'm here on business. - Yeah, i know. I know.

Real quick.

I was hoping that you could spot me 600 bucks, stat.

My mechanic called a code blue on my alternator.

Well, you work here. What are they paying you, in shirley temples?

They, uh... they let me go.

Cutbacks. I mean, you know how that is.

I do.

That's why i'm pretty sure it's not your car that needs the fix, buddy.

You think that i'm lying?

I got three bus transfers to prove it.

Listen, i know a really great place you can go to, get back to being yourself.

It's very discreet, staff's very supportive, food's great.

Now, if you're worried about paying for your treatment, don't...

'cause i can take care of that for you, okay?

Great.

You gonna drive me there, too?

'cause my car doesn't work.

All right, hey...

... this road that you're on, man, it is lonely, all right?

Now, if you need someone to talk to, if you need a friend...

then i'm that guy, but, uh...

i'm not gonna give you any money for drugs.

You know, i thought after everything that happened that we could be friends.

But seeing you don't trust me, i guess not.

You've been caring for davis bloome in your basement?

Who else knows about this?

No one.

Not even oliver.

And i came to you directly because he can't be trusted.

Chloe, he created our organization

to help with exactly this kind of problem.

Oliver killed lex luthor.

And the stakes are too high to have someone involved who can't think clearly.

Webmd doesn't exactly have a lot of intergalactic infections,

so you were the only person that i could turn to for a cure.

No, i'm glad that you came to me,

but there's only so much i can do with a few cells.

You have his dna. What more do you need?

The subject in person.

That's not gonna happen.

I can run some preliminary tests on the saliva.

But, chloe, are...

are you sure this is something you want to take on alone?

I'll be fine.

Call me when you get the results.

- Who was that? - Davis, you shouldn't be outside.

What's going on? Who were you talking to?

Look at me. It's fine, okay? Calm down. It's just a friend.

Now, you know you're not supposed to be out of the house. What's happening?

Nothing helps.

I tried looking at photos of you, i tried holding strands of your hair...

none of it works. This thing inside me,

it starts to claw its way out as soon as you leave.

I can't be away from you now.

You are now metropolis' own cornfield killer.

Now, i didn't tell you about this earlier because i didn't want to upset you,

but the police are hunting for you as we speak.

And by accepting your help, i put you directly in their cross hairs.

Only if someone finds you, which they won't because i won't let that happen.

But what about when the cops find you?

- What then? - Then we leave.

We load up the car and never look back.

You've done more for me in a few weeks

than anyone's done in my entire life.

But i can't ask you to run away with me.

Then it's a good thing you're not the one asking.

You wouldn't be able to say goodbye to anyone,

not even clark.

Can you do that?

Can you honestly tell me

that i am the most important person in your life?

... i would do anything for you.

Well, then maybe this is our chance to start over.

Let's leave smallville.

Okay.

So, this is actually happening.

Um, i just need to close a few accounts

and dead-end some paper trails first,

but we can be on the road by sundown.

... i don't know where i'd be without you.

Oliver, i checked the quarry where you said you buried davis.

- He's not there anymore. - Your vision must be getting blurry.

I buried that body myself.

I still have the dirt under my fingernails to prove it.

I saw the grave. It's empty.

Why would someone move the body?

I don't think anyone moved it.

It doesn't look like anyone dug into the ground.

Looks like something... clawed its way out.

Then that thing's still alive.

It went after chloe before. I think it may try again.

Have you warned her yet?

She thinks i'm being paranoid.

Paranoid?

She knows he's obsessed with her, right?

Which is why i need you to find her. Take her someplace safe.

I need to head to the fortress,

see if i can find a way to send doomsday

to a place he can't hurt anyone again.

No need to pack your parka.

I can tell you how to conquer the beast.
