- Pete Ross: You sure you gonna do this?
- Clark Kent: I'm here, aren't I?
- [Pete looks back at him, skeptical]
- Clark Kent: What?
- Pete Ross: I believe your dad's exact words were: "Three hundred and fifty dollars is a lot to spend on something you really don't need."
- Clark Kent: I earned that money. Besides, my dad said it was my decision to make.
- Pete Ross: Which means that you're really not supposed to buy it.
- Clark Kent: You know, dad, the things that I did and I said, I really didn't mean them.
- Jonathan Kent: Clark, the red meteor rocks might have affected your personality, but... we gotta face it, those feelings all came from somewhere. And I know compared to Lex, we don't have a whole lot around here, but up until now I never really thought it bothered you.
- Clark Kent: Maybe it does. Sometimes. And then I remember what's really important, and none of that stuff matters. No matter how crazy I got, you two stood by me, and that's something all the money in the world can't buy.
- Clark Kent: When I put that ring on, I felt the sudden urge to tell the whole world my secret. Lex, Lana, Jessie.
- Martha Kent: But you didn't, Clark.
- Clark Kent: I know, but the feelings are still there. It's like I have these two identities, and I don't know which one's the real me.
- Martha Kent: The real you is the one who came back to us. And we never had any doubt that you would.
- Clark Kent: Did you know that Chloe had a birthmark on her cheek?
- Pete Ross: No, she doesn't.
- Clark Kent: Not that cheek.
- Pete Ross: Are you doing what I think you're doing? Clark, that's Chloe you're scoping, man!
- Clark Kent: Not just Chloe.
- Clark Kent: [when trying to explain why he was so forward] I wish I could tell you.
- Lana Lang: Story of your life.
- Chloe Sullivan: Nothing says school spirit like a ring that looks like it was jacked from P. Diddy.
- Clark Kent: I think it looks great.
- Chloe Sullivan: [inspecting the ring] I think we'll be lucky if the glue holds through graduation. I wonder if the ruby's even real.
- Jessie Brooks: [at the club] Hey, Lana, I took your advice and decided to check out the Talon.
- Lana Lang: Yeah?
- Jessie Brooks: Yeah. That's why I decided to come here.
