- Lois Lane: In about 50,000 years there's gonna be the cutest hat in the window of that little shop across from the office. I don't know how I'm gonna live without it.
- Jimmy Olsen: I'm sorry, but you're really going to have to come back later.
- Prof. Twiddle: Young man, some of us may never come back.
- Clark Kent: Well, I'm sorry, Professor, but you see we don't have time...
- Prof. Twiddle: Time! That's just the point. I've conquered it with this little machine.
- Lois Lane: Well, that's very nice, Professor. Now, why don't you run home and bury it in your backyard.
- Perry White: That's the understatement of the year.
- Lois Lane: Yes, but of what year?
- Turk Jackson: 50,000 B.C.! Like the professor said!
- Jimmy Olsen: Jeepers, I should have left a note for my mother.
