Quotes 

• Clark Kent : I want you to write my story.

  Lois Lane : No offense, but I've long since graduated from the "Lonely Seeking Lonelier" classifieds.

  Clark Kent : It's a pretty interesting one.

  Lois Lane : Clark, I'm busy here. You may have forgotten about me, but the news world didn't.

  Clark Kent : After this story you're about to write, it never will.

  Lois Lane : What story?

  Clark Kent : I didn't forget to pick you up at the airport, Lois. The reason I wasn't there is because I was protecting people. I'm the Red-Blue Blur.

  Lois Lane : [laughs]  That's the best you can do?

  [Lois continues to laugh as they walk into supply room] 

  Clark Kent : That thing that saved you from the speeding car, that was me. That time when the barn door flew off its hinges, you thought it was a weather anomaly. I did that.

  Lois Lane : Yeah, right, what'd you do - sneeze?

  Clark Kent : Actually...

  [Lois stands on top of a desk to reach for printer paper on top of a shelf] 

  Lois Lane : Clark, next time you liquid-lunch, take the rest of the day off.

  Clark Kent : Let me help you with that.

  [Clark picks up the desk with one hand for Lois to reach for the paper. Lois looks at Clark shocked and falls. Clark catches her as he lays the desk down] 

  Lois Lane : Guess I should stop calling you "Smallville."

• Lois Lane : [after Clark saves Lois from the DDS at the Planet]  Nice interception, but you shouldn't be here. All the bloodhounds in the state will be sniffing you out!

  Clark Kent : It's okay, I know this sounds crazy but in a few moments this will ALL be over.

  Lois Lane : Okay, well try me, my shock threshold is pretty high right now.

  Clark Kent : Lois, I have a ring that allows me to go to any moment in time.

  [Lois looks a little stunned] 

  Clark Kent : I'm going to go back to before Linda Lake ever wrote that article. The world isn't ready to accept someone like me.

  Lois Lane : Then stay and fight back! Look! Give people a chance to see who you really are!

  Clark Kent : It's too late Lois. My whole life I've seemed different.

  Lois Lane : Some people spend their ENTIRE lives looking for a way to stand out, to be a person that ANYBODY would call special. When you first told me who you were, my thought was anyone but Clark. And not because of the alien thing, I have known enough guys to know that you can be born on terra firma and be lightyears from normal...

  Clark Kent : Lois you don't have to explain, I get it.

  Lois Lane : No... you don't. How can someone with x-ray vision be so blind?

  [pauses] 

  Lois Lane : I've been down the Hero road before, and every time I've made a giant U-turn, but this, this was different.

  Clark Kent : And this time it will be different Lois. When I do this no one's going to remember who I am.

  Lois Lane : And when you hit your reset button, you're not going to tell me your secret, are you?

  Clark Kent : [slightly shakes his head]  I'm sorry.

  Lois Lane : It's okay...

  [trying not to cry] 

  Lois Lane : Why should I think I'm special? Clark. I understand.

  Clark Kent : Lois you don't understand.

  [steps closer to Lois] 

  Clark Kent : It's because you ARE special...

• Clark Kent : Lois, you know, after the wedding, things got a little crazy.

  Lois Lane : Things got a little crazy before all hell broke loose. Let's face it. Or-or we could not face it... and just forget that it ever almost happened.

  Clark Kent : I think it's a pretty complicated conversation, Lois.

  Lois Lane : We don't have to over-analyze anything now. I'm gonna work off my jet lag later on tonight at the cafe. You wanna come by for a coffee, cool. If not, let's just say I get it.

  Clark Kent : Okay.

  Lois Lane : Okay. See you then. Or not. Or whatever. I'm going to work.

• Lois Lane : How did I not put these pieces together? I mean, I-I lived with you. And now, we practically work on top of each other. I mean, have I been high this entire time?

  Clark Kent : The important thing is that you know now. And there's no better reporter to tell my story than you. Would you do me the honor?

  Lois Lane : Consider it done. Tomorrow's front page will tell the tale of the red and blue meteor-infected hero.

  Clark Kent : About the meteors... we should talk about where I'm from.

• Lois Lane : [to Clark]  You're a reporter, Smallville. You're not saving the world.

• Clark Kent : Lois?

  Lois Lane : Are you kidding me? Now you show up. The one time I actually depend on you and you flake on picking me up from the airport?

  Clark Kent : I am really sorry.

  Lois Lane : Sorry? Sorry doesn't buy back that last three hours I spent standing in a downpour watching cheesy curbside reunions.

  Clark Kent : I can explain.

  Lois Lane : You e-mailed last night to say you'd be there. What, do I need to tie a string around your finger myself?

• Clark Kent : Can I talk to you?

  Lois Lane : Wow, what is that noise? Is someone talking?

  Clark Kent : Lois, you can't ignore me forever.

  Lois Lane : Could be worse. You could be ignored in a three-hour downpour.

• Lois Lane : Clark, call me. Whatever trash these people are spreading about you, you can count on me to fire back guns blazing.

• Randall Brady : You sit across the guy, Lane. How slow are you?

  Lois Lane : [seeing a newspaper headline blaming Clark for Lex's death]  Oh, hell no.

• Agent Black : Ms. Lane, we need to speak with you regarding matters of national security.

  Lois Lane : Without my lawyer, you're not gonna hear me so much as hiccup.

• Lois Lane : Some things never change. I've been gone a month and you still drive in the granny lane.

  Clark Kent : You're welcome for the ride, Lois. Did I mention I missed your ongoing commentary?

• Lois Lane : You see a parade, and you just have to rain on it, don't you? You can't stand the fact that there are actually good people in this world.

  Linda Lake : If your boyfriend really cared about saving people, he would have done things my way.

  Lois Lane : People looked up to him. He could have been the hero they always needed.

  Linda Lake : Funny thing about people. The only thing they love more than building up heroes is tearing them down.

• Lois Lane : The disappearing acts, the half-baked excuses... all this time, I just coughed it up to a classic case of Peter Pan syndrome, but... you're the opposite. You're like... a hero?

  Clark Kent : Look, Lois, uh, this is a lot to take in all at once, but I wanted you to hear it from me before you heard it from anyone else.

  Lois Lane : So why am I the first one you told?

  Clark Kent : Actually, Lois, you're not. Lana and Chloe already know.

  Lois Lane : Oh. Someone's had a busy morning.

  Clark Kent : They've known for years.

  Lois Lane : Right. Of course.

• Lois Lane : Start at the beginning. What guns you got in your arsenal?

  Clark Kent : I guess I might as well just throw it all out there. I can blast fire out of my eyes.

  Lois Lane : [a little taken aback]  Okay.

  Clark Kent : I can hear a dog barking from ten miles away. I can see through solid objects, and I can run faster than the speed of sound.

  Lois Lane : Wait. Rewind.

  [trying to cover her modesty] 

  Lois Lane : Expand on your whole... "see through things" thing.
