- Lana Luthor: Lex, we have to talk.
- Lex Luthor: We most certainly do. But it will have to wait. I'll be back tonight.
- Lana Luthor: I won't be. Lex, I can't live like this anymore.
- Lex Luthor: Yeah, I don't blame you. Living a lie in a marriage you never wanted. Must take its toll after a while.
- Lana Luthor: You're the expert. Setting up a nursery. An heirloom crib. The tears of joy in your eyes when you saw the ultrasound. What kind of a toll does it take, Lex?
- Lex Luthor: What in God's name are you talking about?
- Lana Luthor: I'm talking about the massive amounts of hormones you injected into my veins to make me believe that I was pregnant! What kind of a monster are you?
- Lex Luthor: I don't know where you're getting your information from, Lana, but it's nothing but slander. You know I would never...
- Lana Luthor: Don't lie, Lex. It's too late for all that. This marriage is over.
- Lex Luthor: Lana, I know I'm far from perfect, but you can't deny what we have between us.
- Lana Luthor: Lex, all there is between us is lies on top of lies!
- Lex Luthor: Lana, everything I've ever done, it's because I love you.
- Lana Luthor: You aren't capable of love, Lex. You never were.
- Lex Luthor: [Lex closes the door] It's Clark, isn't it? You never could get over him... even if he is the greatest liar of them all.
- Lana Luthor: Clark means more to me than you ever will.
- Lex Luthor: [Lex hits her] Lana...
- Lana Luthor: That's the last time you'll ever touch me!
- Lex Luthor: [Lana tries to leave, but Lex grabs her arm] Do you really think I could just let you walk away?
- Lana Luthor: What are you going to do, Lex? Kill me? Because it's the only way you're going to keep me in this mansion.
- [Lana rips her arm out of Lex's grasp and walks out]
- Clark Kent: Chloe, I told Lana my secret. She knows everything. She knows that... I'm an alien.
- Chloe Sullivan: Wow. So, I guess we have a new charter member of the Clark Kent secret-keeping club... What did she say?
- Clark Kent: She kissed me.
- Chloe Sullivan: That's fantastic. You've been wanting this forever. You just... you must be on Cloud 99.
- Clark Kent: I will be as soon as I deal with this phantom.
- Chloe Sullivan: Look, Lois, take it from someone who's gone up against the Lex Luthor army more than once. Not only will victory remain elusive, but you're almost certain to step on a land mine in the process.
- Lois Lane: I'm the general's daughter, remember? I live for battle.
- Clark Kent: You know, I was thinking, if you're half a senator that you are a mom, this country's in real good hands.
- Martha Kent: I always thought you'd be the one to leave the farm first.
- Clark Kent: Well, Washington, D.C. is no different than Topeka. It's only a few seconds more away from me.
- [Lionel is trying to make his way into the complex. He runs into Bizarro thinking it is Clark]
- Lionel Luthor: Clark. Son, what is it?
- Clark Kent: That's not me. It's the phantom.
- Bizarro: How do you like my new look?
- [Lionel takes out the Kryptonite and thrusts it onto Bizarro's chest. He screams in pain as the Kryptonite glows with a bright white light. Bizarro is rejuvenated from the Kryptonite and looks triumphant]
- Bizarro: Thanks. That's just what I needed.
- [He strikes Lionel, sending him flying against a wall and collapsing to the floor, unconscious. He walks towards Clark]
- Clark Kent: What the hell are you?
- Bizarro: I'm you, only a little more bizarre.
- Clark Kent: I don't understand. None of this makes any sense.
- Lionel Luthor: It was when Lex was possessed with Zod. I became possessed with all your father's knowledge. I found myself writing... in Kryptonian, the symbol for power.
- John Jones: It was a beacon. The same beacon Jor-El used when he needed me.
- Clark Kent: You knew my father?
- John Jones: I worked for Jor-El, bringing criminals to justice. When Krypton was on the verge of annihilation, he asked me to keep an eye out for you.
- Clark Kent: Where have you been all these years?
- John Jones: Watching from a distance, from my residence on Mars.
- Lionel Luthor: Your father wanted you to pass the test without any help. He wasn't to interfere unless it was absolutely necessary.
- John Jones: When you unleashed those phantoms, your life was at stake. I didn't have a choice. I had to help you out.
- Lionel Luthor: Like what happened at the docks in Seattle.
- Clark Kent: When that phantom infected my mind?
- Lionel Luthor: That's right.
- John Jones: Unfortunately, I've lost a step since then.
- Clark Kent: What happened?
- John Jones: Nothing.
- [Clark opens John's jacket and sees he was injured]
- Clark Kent: That doesn't look like nothing.
- John Jones: I had a run-in with the last phantom. I have to leave Earth's atmosphere to heal, but first I must complete the job I started.
- Lex Luthor: Ever since the day I've put on this wedding ring, you seem to have the uncanny knack for being one step ahead of me.
- Lionel Luthor: I don't have time for this. I have things to do.
- Lex Luthor: Like have a private screening of that DVD? You know the documentary - the one that Lana stole from me and gave to you.
- Lionel Luthor: Oh, dear. I'd hoped married life have lessoned some of your paranoia.
- [Clark lifts Lionel by his throat]
- Lionel Luthor: Clark, if Lana's spoken to you, I know what you must be thinking, but you've got to listen to me.
- Clark Kent: I've listened to you for too long!
- Lionel Luthor: Lex is tracking a wraith from the Phantom Zone. I had to force Lana to marry him. It was the only way she could get close to him to get the information for me I need to you help.
- Clark Kent: No. I never asked for you help. And I never will.
- Lionel Luthor: You're not a murderer. You're Kal-El.
- Clark Kent: Don't call me by that name!
- Clark Kent: Where's the phantom?
- John Jones: If you were to get infected, it could kill you.
- Clark Kent: People are getting killed everyday. If anyone's gonna stop this phantom, it's gonna be me.
- Chloe Sullivan: So, Lex is tracking a wraith from the Phantom Zone, and Lionel Luthor is your new father figure? That is a lot of excitement for one day.
- [Clark meets Bizarro]
- Clark Kent: What just happened?
- Bizarro: I took a little piece of your DNA. Now I'm going to take your life.
- Lex Luthor: As hard as it is for you to believe, Lana actually loves me.
- Lionel Luthor: Oh, you know so little about women, Lex. I suppose losing your mother at such an early age didn't help matters. Lana does not love you. The only reason she agreed to marry you was that I gave her a gentle, yet very firm, nudge.
- Lex Luthor: Using my wife against me... That's deplorable even for you. Whatever debts you think I still owe, we are even. I want you out of my life.
- Lionel Luthor: I don't think you're gonna get rid of me that easily.
- Clark Kent: [Clark superspeeds into Reeves Dam and pushes Lex up against the wall] She was your wife, Lex. Why did you do it?
- Lex Luthor: Now is not the time to lecture me about my marriage, Clark.
- Clark Kent: Why'd you do it? Just tell me!
- Lex Luthor: Get your hands off me!
- Clark Kent: You afraid she was gonna bring you down, or was it just too humiliating for you that she was gonna leave you? Why'd you have to kill her? Why?
- Lex Luthor: What are you talking about?
- Clark Kent: You already know. Lana is dead.
- Lex Luthor: [genuinely shocked] No.
- Clark Kent: No. You don't to need act so surprised. You're the one who killed her. You put a bomb in her car. You're the one who killed her!
- Clark Kent: I'll go after the phantom. I have the crystal that Raya gave me.
- John Jones: I doubt that crystal will work.
- Lionel Luthor: It's not an ordinary phantom, Clark. It's the product of a Kryptonian lab experiment. It's been destroying one human being after the other, desperately searching for the only host that will ensure its survival: a Kryptonian body.
- Clark Kent: [after watching a phantom in his likeness become stronger after absorbing Kryptonite] What are you?
- Bizarro: I'm you, just a little more bizarre.
- [revealing himself to be Bizarro]
