When he reached his fabulous mansion Lex walked inside of it, thinking it was silly to just stand around in the yard. When he got indoors he walked into a very strange room. "That's funny," quoth he, "I don't think I've ever seen this room before." He walked around, admiring the delightful woodwork. "Oh this woodwork is delightful." He said.
Just then a ghost appeared, saying, "Ohhhhhh!"
"Wha…!?" asked Lex. Then he noticed that it wasn't a ghost at all. It was just a hologram. The reason he was able to figure this out was that a seemingly normal teen-age boy holding a projector stepped out from behind a box.
"Ha Ha!" said the teenager, "I bet you don't know who I am."
"Actually," replied Lex, "You're John Steveson, the science prodigy who's been pushed too hard by his demanding parents and never accepted by his peers. People have been talking about you all day."
"Oh man! I guess I'll just go then."
"Yes, that would be good."
