Quotes 

• Clark Kent : I'm glad you're here. I wanted to talk to you about what happened yesterday in the truck.

  Lana Lang : Right. I, uh... I wanted to talk to you about that, too.

  Clark Kent : I was way out of line. I was feeling vulnerable, but I don't expect...

  Lana Lang : Clark, um... the reason I pulled away... is that I, uh... I met someone at the hospital.

  Clark Kent : Oh.

  Lana Lang : And I'm not sure how I feel about him.

  Clark Kent : Well, I mean, the fact you're telling me about him means you already know.

• Chloe Sullivan : Have you seen Pete?

  [realizing what she just said] 

  Chloe Sullivan : Sorry. It's, uh... we were supposed to meet this morning and... and double team on my "Daily Planet" column.

  Clark Kent : Is that the column Lionel Luthor helped you land?

  Chloe Sullivan : What's that supposed to mean?

  Clark Kent : I may have lost my sight, but things are becoming much clearer now. Exactly how long have you and Lionel been looking into my life?

  Chloe Sullivan : [reluctantly]  Since last spring. The day after Lex's wedding.

  Clark Kent : When you saw me and Lana together. Is that why you did this?

  [Chloe doesn't know what to say] 

  Clark Kent : Your silence is deafening. What did you give him?

  Chloe Sullivan : Nothing. Nothing he didn't already know.

  Clark Kent : Well, then what is he sharing with you?

  Chloe Sullivan : Nothing. Believe it or not, Clark, I... I was just... I was trying to help you.

  Clark Kent : Oh, by spying on me?

  Chloe Sullivan : No. By... just trying to understand why he's so intrigued with you.

  Clark Kent : And if the "Torch" got a few new computers, and you made a name for yourself at the Daily Planet, that was okay, too. For all the times you accused me of keeping secrets, how could you do this to me?

  Chloe Sullivan : I was... he just... he caught me at an especially bad time, and I caved. I've been trying to get out of it ever since, but when people like Lionel Luthor have you, they don't want to let go. You know, I thought that you out of all people would understand making a stupid decision in a moment of weakness, but I guess I was wrong.

• Jewelry Store Owner : [Clark is shopping for a birthday present for Martha]  Last time Martha was in, she made a point of trying these on.

  Clark Kent : Did she try anything on that didn't have four numbers in the price?

• Pete Ross : So your mega-hearing thing's back?

  Clark Kent : Suddenly, I'm the ultimate eavesdropper.

• Lana Lang : I should get back to the Talon.

  Clark Kent : Hey, Lana? Thanks, for being honest.

  Lana Lang : Well, it's the only way our relationship can last, right?

• Clark Kent : I just found out you fired Chloe's father today.

  Lex Luthor : Yeah, well, uh... apparently, his performance was seriously lacking.

  Clark Kent : Chloe's father has worked for the company for years. This could ruin her family.

  Lex Luthor : Clark, my father suspects Mr. Sullivan was the one spreading the malicious rumors about me. I assume Chloe overheard the gossip and passed it along to you.

  Clark Kent : No, this isn't right.

  Lex Luthor : It's not about being right. It's about positioning. My father won a battle today.

  Clark Kent : And Chloe's father is a casualty.

  Lex Luthor : True. But the war's just starting. And I have the greatest advantage. He thinks I'm weak. Frankly, Clark, I thought you'd be relieved.

  Clark Kent : Why would you think that?

  Lex Luthor : Because at least this way, I was able to keep you out of it.
