Quotes 

• Lois Lane : Look, I - I just want you to know, Clark, that when I'm sitting in the audience today at your graduation and you stand on at that stage in front of all those people, I'm going to be looking up at you and thinking one thing.

  Clark Kent : What's that?

  Lois Lane : Please, God, don't let him trip.

• Lois Lane : Nightmare? So that's what all this commotion is about?

  Jonathan Kent : Lois.

  Lois Lane : [to Clark]  You know, if it makes you feel any better, I have them all the time. I had this one last week. Really scary. This guy wearing a red cape...

  Clark Kent : [sarcastic]  Oh, that sounds horrible, Lois.

• Lois Lane : Clark, I know how devastated you must be but if you could just keep the tears to a minimum, I'd appreciate it.

  Clark Kent : I'll try.

• Clark Kent : Journalism. You ever thought about that? You wrote some half-decent articles in your short-lived career at the Torch.

  Lois Lane : Kill me first. Even if I could spell, the last thing I'd do is spend my time in a newsroom. With my luck, I'd probably end up across the desk from the most bumbling reporter on the masthead.

• [a meteor shower is heading towards Smallville] 

  Chloe Sullivan : Hey, Clark, can you believe it? Twice in sixteen years. I mean, this is crazy. Smallville has some extraterrestrial bulls-eye on it.

  Clark Kent : It's pretty weird, huh?

• Clark Kent : Lois, I'm not sure what I'm gonna do without you.

  Lois Lane : Come on, Clark, your future's laid out right in front of you. You're gonna go to community college, major in agriculture, probably minor in law enforcement. Then you and Lana will have a nice little church wedding.

  Clark Kent : Excuse me?

  Lois Lane : It's written in the stars, and you know it. It's only a matter of time before you join the bowling league, take over the family farm and then, well, you and Lana can bring little Clark Jr. into the world.

  Clark Kent : I think you're hallucinating.

  Lois Lane : No, hallucinating would be imagining Clark Kent going off the big city to make his mark on the world. I'm just being realistic.

• Lois Lane : You know, I took this career test in some magazine. It said that my perfect job would be a radio disc jockey.

  Clark Kent : That would make sense. You talk enough. There won't be any dead air.

  Lois Lane : You mock me now, Smallville, but you wait and see.

• Jonathan Kent : Do I have to remind you, Clark, the last time we had a meteor shower it was full of Kryptonite?

  Martha Kent : If the same thing happens today, it could kill you. You - You have to come with us.

  Clark Kent : I spoke to Jor-El.

  Martha Kent : [whispers]  No.

  Clark Kent : He told me I have to find the other two stones right now and unite it with the one in the cave.

  Martha Kent : No. You're *my* son. You're not gonna go on some kind of suicide mission.

  Jonathan Kent : Clark. You might be stronger than steel, but you're not invincible.

  Clark Kent : I know, Dad... but I'm the only one who can do this.
