Lucas Grabeel: Alexander Luthor

Quotes 

• Oliver Queen : [to Alexander]  So, what was that this morning, huh? Was that, uh - was that your idea to show Daddy you got the killer instinct, too? Is that what that was?

  Lionel Luthor : Are you making an accusation against my son? No one will take your word, you're a convicted felon. You should have stayed out of the spotlight, but you wanted celebrity. You made one fatal mistake - you trusted them, the people. They're vulgar, uneducated, and stupid, and they don't even know what you're fighting for. Must be heart-wrenching.

  Oliver Queen : Well, you got it all figured out. I'll tell you what - I wouldn't underestimate the common man in tomorrow's vote. When the VRA's repealed and my name is cleared, I'm coming after you.

  Lionel Luthor : No, you're wrong. Tomorrow, the people will turn on you again, believe me. You missed the mark, Green Arrow.

  Alexander Luthor : And now it's our turn... again.

• Alexander Luthor : No, Tess! I am done with all of you! And you. Always making yourself look better by making me look like some kind of monster!

  Clark Kent : You're not him.

  Tess Mercer : You keep blaming everybody, but look who has the gun in their hand. I know how you feel. After living in the darkness for so long, you feel like you can't step into the light, 'cause it makes you feel ashamed. But Clark was the one that changed everything for me. He can do the same thing for you.

  Alexander Luthor : W-Why would you want to help me? I'm your enemy. We've been locked in battle for years.

  Clark Kent : You're not locked into anything. You had something that Lex never had, and that's Tess. She loved you.

  Tess Mercer : I still love you. I do. And I know I'm not perfect. But I'll always be there for you.

• Alexander Luthor : I watched your body fall 40 stories. It was the greatest moment of my life.

  Lionel Luthor : [sarcastically]  Well, what father doesn't want to make his son happy.

• Clark Kent : You're looking for the Phantom Zone crystal, aren't you?

  Tess Mercer : You sent Slade there, didn't you?

  Clark Kent : The VRA forced my hand. And when the justice system here is fixed, I'll bring him back to stand trial.

  Tess Mercer : How could you be so good, Clark?

  Alexander Luthor : Because no one told him to hate. Like Lionel taught me.

• Lionel Luthor : You shot Martha Kent. Why would you do that? I understand she's a perfectly lovely woman.

  Alexander Luthor : I was trying to kill *him*. I thought he'd blur in front of the bullet. The kryptonite would tear through him. But he didn't come. He wasn't there to protect her.

  Lionel Luthor : D-don't worry, son. I'm here now to protect you. No one will ever find out what happened today.

  Alexander Luthor : Will you help me kill Clark?

  Lionel Luthor : I betrayed you for that boy in another life, but now, here... we've got another chance. We'll work together. You're my flesh and blood. My only son. With my help, you will succeed. You will rule our family dynasty. No matter what it costs.

• Lionel Luthor : Listen. Listen to me, son. Don't let hate master you. Make it your servant. Use it. Let it build inside of you. Hate can make you strong. I can teach you how.

  Alexander Luthor : There's nothing left for you to teach me.
