We see missiles taking off from behind Kansas fields. Back in the mansion, Brainiac tells Clark that he's not going to keep him from doing the task that he was programmed for. He picks up the gun. "Zod is still alive," Clark says. Brainiac says that he's still trapped in the Phantom Zone. Brainiac says that once the humans are gone, he'll use Kara to release Zod through her Fortress. Why is Brainiac wasting time telling Kal-El the plan? Clark thinks Kara will never go along with it. Brainiac observes that she didn't look like she had much fight left in her. He says she'll live; she's healthy. He says Lex Luthor will be the vessel. Brainiac says that together, they'll repopulate the planet and Krypton will rise again. He aims the gun at the camera. We shift views to see Clark lying at his feet.
Meanwhile... a nuclear holocaust. Terminator 3 footage. Blast, blast, blast.
We come back to see Brainiac deliver this line in Jarnelle's voice: "You cannot change the course of history, Kal-El." He fires the gun and everything goes white.
