Keri Lynn Pratt: Cat Grant

Quotes 

• Cat Grant : Oh, my God. Lois Lane. Are you expecting?

  Lois Lane : Spread that rumor, and you can expect my fist in your face.

• Cat Grant : Lois? I thought you were still...

  Lois Lane : Being questioned by Trotter and her goosestepping goons? Nope. Cleared of all charges. So I thought I'd get back to work, 'cause you know Tess, and her inquisition is no reason to give up on a deadline rule.

  Cat Grant : That's not in the employee handbook. And I've read it cover to cover. You escaped.

  Lois Lane : And you totally ratted us out to Trotter, didn't you?

  Cat Grant : That's what I call doing my civic duty. Just like marching you back to the authorities will be.

  Lois Lane : No, you are not. I need to find Tess and Emil, and then I need to get out of here. Please, Cat. We have to put this fire out, not fuel it.

• Lois Lane : The people that the government is targeting, they are not villains. They are honest-to-God heroes, and they're putting their lives on the line to protect us. Look, I know I don't say this... ever, but you are a good reporter, and that means that your instincts are solid, so...

  Cat Grant : My instincts are telling me to turn you in.

  Lois Lane : No, Cat, this isn't about me, or even you. Think about your son; what kind of hero do you want him to believe in? The kind that destroys others in the name of good or the kind that saves them and lives up to the name?

  Cat Grant : You're asking me to change everything I believe about the world?

  Lois Lane : Or re-think who you call a hero. What if I told you that the Blur has saved you at least twice without you even knowing it? I know you love your son. And the only reason that he still has a mother is because a man she says is a bad guy actually saved her life.

• Cat Grant : We should have run that photo. And we would have if you hadn't have played judge, jury, and executioner with my article.

  Tess Mercer : Not executioner, editor. Your facts weren't verified and your writing is juvenile.

  Cat Grant : And you're losing subscriptions while the Daily Star sells out! Face it, Tess, if you don't get with the majority agenda soon, someone's going to notice.
