We just moved into a new house and had the builder put a couple of outlets up high on a wall to put behind a wall-mounted TV. I wanted to replace those two outlets with these surge-protected outlets:

I got the last one on the circuit replaced just fine, but the other outlet had two white wires and two black wires. I'm assuming that one came from the panel or another outlet, and the other goes to the last one in the circuit that I already replaced.
Anyway, the surge protected outlet does not have two sets of screws like the outlet it's supposed to replace has. Is there a way I can wire this in, or do I need to get a different surge-protected outlet that has two sets of screws on it?
Thanks in advance.
