James Olsen : Here. From him.
Kara Danvers : It's the blanket he was wrapped in when he was a baby.
James Olsen : He's really proud of you. Me too. Now, don't you have a city to protect? You now... Up, up and away?
-
Kara Danvers : [seeing a picture of Superman flying through the air] I've seen this picture, like, a million times. It won a Pulitzer. Wow.
James Olsen : Yeah. Only because it was the first real shot of him. Little secret, he actually posed for that. Guess he liked me.
Kara Danvers : Oh, my god. You're Jimmy Olsen, the photographer from the Daily Planet.
James Olsen : James Olsen. Well, "Jimmy"'s reserved for my mom and the big guy. He's kind of stuck in his ways.
-
Kara Danvers : Ms. Grant sent me for layout, since she doesn't like to wait.
James Olsen : Well, she can wait a minute.
Kara Danvers : Have you met Ms. Grant?
James Olsen : Yeah, what's she gonna do, fire me right after hiring me? Her loss.
-
James Olsen : [meaning Superman] Anyone ever tell you that you look a little like him, right here?
[gesturing to her eyes]
Kara Danvers : No. Uh, no. No. You're the first.

Cat Grant : Do you think there's any connection between this hero and...
James Olsen : To my friend in blue? I don't know. I mean, not that he mentioned, but if she's anything like him, she's a hero. Saving people's what they're born to do. She'll be back.
Cat Grant : She better be. This girl is the answer. She is exactly what I need to save the Tribune. Besides fatty foods, there is nothing people love more than a hero.

Kara Danvers : Do you have time to grab lunch?
James Olsen : You must be hungry. You probably burn up a lot of calories fighting an ax-wielding alien.
-
Kara Danvers : You knew. This whole time. He told you.
James Olsen : Well, he knew that I was trying to expand my own horizons, so as a favor, he asked me to expand them here, in National City. Hang out. Be near you.
Kara Danvers : So... so... wait a minute. He... he wanted me to do this? Why didn't he just tell me?
James Olsen : Because he wanted you to choose it for yourself. Same way he did. It's what makes a hero, Kara.
-
Kara Danvers : I was handling the situation.
James Olsen : Oh, yeah? What was your plan? To get yelled at and fired? Cause that was working.
Kara Danvers : I don't need you or anyone else fighting my battles for me.
