Clock tower. Everything's broken. Lois is still tied up as Clark and Chloe enter. Clark asks what happened. "This crazy woman attacked us!" says Lois. Chloe notices all the exposed weaponry. Chloe asks why someone would attack Lois and Oliver. "Hey!" says Lois, grabbing Chloe and trying to divert her attention away from the arsenal. She mentions the spectacular view in a dumbshit attempt to hide Oliver's identity. "The view?" asks Chloe. She turns back toward the bows and arrows. Lois blabs about Oliver's hydraulic walk-in closet and says that it must be laundry day. Huh? Make sense, woman! Lois jokes about Oliver's archery hobby, and says she'd hide her quiver in the closet, too. The pain. Oh, God, the pain in my brain. Clark asks where Oliver went. She says she doesn't know. After she woke up, Oliver was gone.
Lair of Lex. Black Canary, in her crazy costume, strides in. Lex, upstairs, says that it looks like she forgot a little green something at home. She says she won't hand Green Arrow over until Lex can prove how bad he is. Lex walks downstairs, saying that the plant break-ins would seem to be sufficient. She says that she's been doing some research: Lex's auto parts factory doesn't sell any auto parts and his tech factory doesn't distribute computers. Lex says that Black Canary has been buying into Green Arrow's propaganda. Canary has figured out that she's on the wrong side. She thinks that Lex was never going to hand Green Arrow over to the police. Without a word, Lex walks behind his desk, whips out a pistol, and points it at Black Canary. He says that he's not much for philosophical debate; he wants what he paid for. Canary says that she's not handing over Green Arrow. Lex fires the gun. It hits Black Canary in the left shoulder, knocking her down. "Where is he?" asks Lex. "Look over your shoulder," says a deep voice. Lex spins, and Green Arrow is there. They begin slap-fighting. Lex fires the gun, but misses. A henchman walks in the doorway just in time to get shot in the chest with one of Green Arrow's little arrows. More firing and slapping. It's the Gayest Fight of the Episode. Lex does a little pirouette. Wow. This isn't exactly The Matrix. It's not even one of those straight-to-video Van Damme jobs. Lex keeps firing his gun and missing. Another henchman walks in. Black Canary has recovered enough to grab his arm and take him out. I guess that wasn't much of a bullet wound. Green Arrow cracks Lex's arm and throws him, making him slide across the floor. Lex reaches for a second gun. He stands, holding them both. Green Arrow fires while Lex fires while Canary throws a knife. Everything freezes as Clark appears. He looks around and decides just to run across the scene, knocking bullets and weaponry out of the air. Clark sees a knife flying toward Lex and a bullet flying toward Canary. He only has time to knock one of them away. Clark decides to save Canary, pulling her out of the way. Lex lands with a crash. He is stabbed. He looks up at Green Arrow. "Better luck next time, Lex," Green Arrow tells him, walking right past the angry billionaire. Lex looks around the room and sees that everyone is gone. Surely, he suspects Clark.
