Biography[]
The Twins were psychically linked and shared the same thoughts at all times. How they came to gain abilities and much of their past is unknown. Using their shared ability to create force fields, the Twins committed crimes that eventually landed them in the Belle Reve Sanitarium.
When Lex Luthor paid a visit to his father in the sanitarium, he "accidentally" released criminal Tommy Lee who used his electric powers to release the Twins as he had use for them. They asked where they were going and Lee replied Smallville.
Lee and the Twins arrived at the Kent Farm where they ambushed a powerless Clark Kent and Lana Lang getting intimate in the barn. The Twins blast Clark with a bolt of psychic energy, pinning him to the ceiling. Lee then threatened to kill Clark and Lana if he didn't do what he asked.
After Lee explained their backgrounds, he came up with a plan for Clark to steal more of the Kryptonite serum for them. When Clark's parents came back to the house looking for him, Lee and the Twins took them and Lana hostage, threatening their lives. They forced Clark to steal the Kryptonite serum from Level Three of LuthorCorp.
The Twins in Belle Reve.
While Clark went to LuthorCorp, Sheriff Adams arrived at the Kent House to warn them of the three escaped convicts. She told Jonathan that the police discovered their escape car down the road. Jonathan was coyly talking with Sheriff Adams and she noticed something was amiss. She left to call for backup but Lee blasted her with electricity. Lana managed to injure one of the Twins' hands but they were still able to put up a force-field around the farmhouse.
The wounded Twins struggled with their powers while the police waited impatiently on the other side of their force-field. When Clark arrives, he asked Sheriff Adams to let him handle things. Clark brought in the suitcase claiming it contained the serum but it really had a flash grenade. The grenade went off when Tommy opened it blinding them. In the ensuing chaos, Tommy aimed at Clark, but he dodged out of the way and accidentally blasted the Twins instead, knocking them out and disabling the force-field. They were apprehended by the police and returned to Belle Reve.
