Wrong Trilogy - Book 2

Wrong Place, Wrong Time, Wrong Clark (This will be referred to by its nickname in the subject/header line "Wrong Clark").

By VirginiaR.

Rated: PG-13 (language and sexual references).

Length: Long, epic length. It is currently still a work in progress, but 230 parts have already been written.

Cover Art created by: KatherineKent

Description: Alt-Clark goes to a Clark-less dimension to woo a new Lois and to be this new dimension’s Superman. Clark doesn’t know that this is an alt-canon-dimension, and he’s stepping into canon Clark’s shoes from his first appearance in Metropolis in May 1993. This is Book 2 of my Wrong Trilogy. While it is recommended to read Book 1 first, it is not required. Book 1 being Another Dimension, Another Time, Another Lois .

Author’s Note: Because this story is so very, very long, I have broken it up into smaller story-sized plot arcs. I hope this is helpful to those who might want to read a bit at a time and not want to try and read the entire epic at once. I’ve included which episode rewrites from canon are told during that story arc.

5/30/2014 - Boards Upgrade Note: I've fixed all the broken links for Wrong Clark within the TOC *and* all the broken links within the individual parts / FDKs threads. dance Should you come across any broken links here in the TOC or elsewhere, please PM me and I will fix them. Thank you for your patience and for reading my story. smile

Disclaimer: Inspired by the characters created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster as they were portrayed on the Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman television series, developed by Deborah Joy LeVine. The characters do not belong to me; they belong to themselves (although Warner Bros, DC Comics, and the heirs to Siegel and Shuster might disagree). Many thanks to all the writers on the above-referenced show, especially Deborah Joy LeVine, Bryce Zabel, Jack Weinstein, Lee Hutson, Dan Levine, Robert Killebrew, Bradley Moore, Chris Ruppenthal, Eugenie Ross-Leming, Brad Buckner, John McNamara, Thania St. John, Tony Blake, Paul Jackson, Paris Qualles, H.B. Cobb, Grant Rosenberg, Kate Boutilier, Gene Miller, Karen Kavner, Kathy McCormick, Dean Cain, and many other scriptwriters from whom I quote directly from their scripts from Seasons 1-2. The story interweaved around their borrowed dialogue, and some plot points, is entirely my own.

Although, I have borrowed the name Lane Davies, from the actor who played the character Tempus on the Lois & Clark tv show, for the Garner’s Vice-President, this character is not to represent him in any way, shape, form, or character. I meant no offense, only an homage to the man who brought us much enjoyment as our beloved villain. All other characters' names and likenesses in this story are creations of the author, despite any similarities to anyone living or dead (except those owned by DC Comics, etc., noted above or owned by anyone else noted below).

Tang is a powdered flavored fruit drink whose brand is owned by Kraft Foods and made famous by the John Glen and NASA.

”Here Comes Peter Cottontail” written by Steve Nelson and Jack Rollins, originally performed by Gene Autry.

The Muppets are a style of puppet created by Jim Henson.

"...party like it's 1999" lyric comes from Prince's hit “1999" which Prince not only performed but also wrote. I am borrowing this lyric, I am making NO money from it, just using it to demonstrate a point in my story (and as Prince's music was well known by anyone growing up in the 1980s, it only makes sense that Lucy would quote this famous lyric). Please, Prince, take no offense.

Miami Vice was a TV show produced by Michael Mann for NBC from 1984-1989.

Some Like it Hot was a film directed by Billy Wilder, starring Jack Lemon, Tony Curtis, and Marilyn Monroe.

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes is a 1953 film starring Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell, screenplay written by Charles Lederer, based on a stage musical by Joseph Fields and Anita Loos. It was directed by Howard Hawks It's my favorite MM movie and heartedly recommend it. (This is the one with MM's rendition of "Diamonds are A Girl's Best Friend".)

The Seven Year Itch is a 1955 film starring Marilyn Monroe and Tom Ewell, screenplay by Billy Wilder and George Axelrod, based on George Axelrod's stage play. It was directed by Billy Wilder. (This is the one with the famous scene with MM over the subway grate that blows the skirt of her white dress over her head.)

Charlie Brown is a comic character from the Peanuts strip, written and illustrated by Charles Schultz. His purchase of the wimpiest tree of on the lot comes from the 1965 film A Charlie Brown Christmas , written by Charles Schultz, and directed by Bill Melendez.

The Gunne Sax style dress was all the rage in the late 1970s and early 1980s. I imagine Lana’s dress as being one of the ones with a revealing bodice as opposed to a dress that covered one’s chest in lace to her neck.

Jordache Jeans were one of the styles of skin tight jeans popular in the early 1980s.

Farrah Fawcett was an actress on television in the late 1970s and early 1980s, best known as one of “Charlie’s Angels” and for popularizing a certain style of hair.

Baby, It's Cold Outside The dialogue from the night when he tries to convince Lana to stay was inspired by this song, music and lyrics by Frank Loesser.

“The Hulk” is a Marvel comic book character, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.

The Kents’ bull, Ferdinand, was named after the character of the gentle, flower-loving, bull in the classic children’s book “The Story of Ferdinand” . Story by Munro Leaf, drawings by Robert Lawson.

Clark's line about couples getting married by checking into a hotel's honeymoon suite was inspired by Erin Klinger's fanfic epic The Accidental Husband .

Officially, Lisa Marie Presley and Michael Jackson were married at the end of May 1994, and at the end of February 1994, she was still married to her previous husband, Danny Kenough. The engagement announcement mentioned in my story is completely of my own making.

(Now and Then There's) A Fool Such as I as written by Bill Trader and performed by Elvis Presley (1952)

Rolex, SA is luxury brand of watches created by Alfred Davis and Hans Wilsdorf in 1905, and is owned by the Wilsdorf Foundation. Neither this brand or company is in any way associated with Lex Luthor, in this or any other dimension. I just borrowed the similarity in name for this story.

Timex is a brand of watches owned by the Timex Group. Neither this brand or company is in any way associated with Lex Luthor; he merely borrowed their fantastic name for his brand of everyday watches, the TimeLex, in this story.

Cagney & Lacey was a television show from the 1980s about two opposite end of the spectrum female detectives.

Dog Day Afternoon is a 1975 Sidney Lumet film, starring Al Pacino, about a bank heist gone bad.

Gucci is an Italian line of clothing and accessories designed by Guccio Gucci. It is owned by PPR. It is no way associated with Lex Luthor.

The idea Henderson got from watching “Adventures of Robin Hood” show was actually based on “The Stolen Costume” episode from Season One of the original “Adventures of Superman” show with George Reeves. Alas, it doesn't look like he'll be using it after all.

Spock, The Borg Collective, and the Physicist’s Report (based on the Captain’s Log) are all borrowed from the television shows “Star Trek” and “Star Trek: The Next Generation” created by Gene Roddenberry. The Borg Collective was introduced during S2, Episode 16: “Q Who?” written by Maurice Hurley. (Tempus always reminded me of Q.)

Kool-Aid is a powdered drink whose brand is owned by Kraft Foods. In 1978, the Jonestown cult killed themselves by adding poison to the mixture (or a similar product) and drinking it.

“Pride and Prejudice” is a novel written by Jane Austin and publish in 1813, includes the characters Elizabeth Bennet and Mr. Darcy.

According to Wikipedia , 9-1-1 system in the United States came online nationwide in 1968.

The term Stepfordian comes from The Stepford Wives book by Ira Levin and the 1976 film based upon it.

“Roman Holiday” is a 1953 romantic comedy directed by William Wyler. The film starred Audrey Hepburn as a Royal Princess visiting Rome and the Gregory Peck as a newspaper reporter who shows her the city all the while trying to get the story of a lifetime.

”Sabrina” is a 1954 romantic comedy directed by Billy Wilder. Audrey Hepburn stars as the chauffeur’s daughter who turns from an awkward duckling into a glorious swan, causing the two rich brothers (William Holden and Humphry Bogart) who employ her father to fight for her affections.

“Carrie” is a novel by Stephen King, which was immortalized in the 1976 film of the same name. During the prom, Carrie’s classmates drench her in pig’s blood as a practical joke, instantly regretting it.

Tusken Raiders are characters from George Lucas's Star Wars Universe (and Jimmy's line of dialogue references "Star Wars: A New Hope".)

[i]If You Love Somebody Set Them Free[/i] is the correct title from that song Clark recalls. It’s by Sting and is on his “Dream of the Blue Turtles” album from 1985.

A/N: Writing has been much slower than anticipated since I started my new job. Instead of writing a part a week as I used to, I'm lucky to complete a part every 2 weeks. Therefore, I'm going to start a new posting schedule. What I'll do is continue to post every Wednesday as I have been until this story arc is complete (Part 228). When I have completed it, I'll take another hiatus until I have finished writing the next story arc. Then, I'll start posting again until that story arc is complete or until I have finished the following story arc, etc. I apologize for the delays and for any confusion.
