[Challenge #9: "What Happened?" ("produce" scene from "Metamorphosis")
Dialogue from episode 2, "Metamorphosis," season 1
(scene: Luthor Manor, the room with the Trojan War diorama)
Lex: Save any lives on your way over? Keep this up and you could make a career out of it.
Clark: Just dropping off your produce. Sorry my parents gave you a hard time.
Lex: Aw, if push came to shove, I would've arm-wrestled them for it.
What's the story behind this conversation? Why did Lex decide he wanted produce? How did he try to get it? Why the hard time? What were the specifics? What was the mentioned conversation like? Give us more information on what sparked this exchange!
(Thanks to Leah for taking dictation from the S'ville DVD.)]
Pete rushed ahead. "Clark! You okay?"
Clark didn't look up. Lex warily stood and greeted them. "Mr. Kent. Pete."
"Lex," Jonathan replied.
The world goes as it will, not as we would will it.
"Pete, get Clark into the back. Keep an eye on him. Lex, you ride up front with me.
For a wonder, nobody argued. They headed for Kansas.
Miles passed. Darkness fell. Lex said, "Mr. Kent...."
"Don't."
"I...."
"Lex. Shut up."
Apparently, Lex just couldn't keep still. "Clark saved my life again. I know you...."
"I never know what you know!" Jonathan exploded. "You didn't know you don't give a kid a truck for saving your life! Or that you can't buy Clark's friendship! Or that if you pay us for produce, you by God get produce!"
"Mr. Kent," Lex protested.
"I saw you kiss him, Lex!"
That shut him up.
