Erica Durance: Lois Lane

Quotes 

• Tess Mercer : Lois, where is the orb?

  Lois Lane : What orb?

  Tess Mercer : The alien technology from my vault.

  Lois Lane : [sarcastically]  Oh, that orb.

  [Lois reaches for her keys on her desk, Tess kicks her in the arm] 

  Lois Lane : I guess asking for severance is out of the question.

  Tess Mercer : I didn't want this.

  Lois Lane : No... You just want to take over the world with some alien nation.

  Tess Mercer : I am trying to *save* the world.

  Lois Lane : What's wrong with Greenpeace?

• Clark Kent : [as Red-Blue Blur]  Sometimes, we can't outrun our destiny.

  Lois Lane : But I thought you were invincible.

  Clark Kent : [as Red-Blue Blur]  So did I.

• Lois Lane : Jimmy, you stepped on my hand!

  Jimmy Olsen : Next time, don't leave your hand on the floor under a desk in an office you're not supposed to be in.

  Lois Lane : I'm sorry, did I just get a lecture from Jimmy Olsen?

• Lois Lane : Chloe's missing with some beastie boy and you're doing what, exactly?

  Clark Kent : No one wants to find Chloe more than I do.

  Lois Lane : Except maybe me. Clark, I haven't slept in days and I am dangerously close to a caffeine OD.

  Clark Kent : I hadn't noticed.

• Tess Mercer : I kinda miss the maid costume.

  Lois Lane : I've stopped cleaning up after you.

  Tess Mercer : You could have fooled me. I expect from my reporters a little better reconnaissance, but then again, the bar's always been a little bit lower for you, hasn't it?

  Lois Lane : Look, I know family loyalty means nothing to you, but I would do anything to find Chloe. And if that means you need to fire me, pull the trigger.

  Tess Mercer : I plan to. But this actually has very little to do with Chloe. You saw it, didn't you?

  Lois Lane : Seriously, you have a significant deficiency of pronoun modifiers going on.

• Jimmy Olsen : Lois, what are you doing here?

  Lois Lane : I'm looking for Chloe and Davis. The head of Tess' security has been staked out at the Talon apartment. Creepy, but telling.

• Clark Kent : [as the Red-Blue Blur]  Ms. Lane.

  Lois Lane : It's you.

  Clark Kent : I've been searching for your cousin Chloe. I am gonna find her.

  Lois Lane : How did you even know she was missing?

  Clark Kent : I've been keeping an eye on you.

  Lois Lane : Wow. To be honest, I... was... kind of hoping for that. But I-I didn't know how to call you and then now all of a sudden, here you are out of... out of nowhere to save the day and I just... I'm rambling again. You just make me so, um... I don't know how I'll ever be able to repay you for this.

  Clark Kent : You could do me a favor. I need you to publish a letter for me.

  Lois Lane : What letter?

  [he speeds past, and she sees an envelope on her computer monitor] 

  Lois Lane : [looking around]  You're here, aren't you?

  Clark Kent : You're not supposed to open it yet. Can I count on you to publish that letter if anything happens to me?

  Lois Lane : [giving it a once-over]  Goodbye? What do you mean goodbye?
