Quotes
-
D.A. Clemmons : [after Clark warns him not to make Lois a fallguy] I suggest you keep your emotions in check, Mr Kent. You obviously have no idea who you're dealing with, here.
Clark Kent : Yeah, neither do you.
-
Clark Kent : I'm gonna go with you.
Lois Lane : I'll be fine, Sikes has been a source for years. And besides he's kinda squirrley, if he sees anybody else he'll bolt.
Clark Kent : Well then I'll just hide in the bushes Honey. I just don't want you to go alone.
Lois Lane : Clark, Honey you're not suggesting I stop following my own leads just because we're married now, are you?
Clark Kent : No... but...
Lois Lane : Good. I'll be back soon.
[Kiss Clark while he still looks uncertain]
-
Superman : [Arrives at Lois's jail cell] Are you alright?
Lois Lane : Well you know me. The glass is always half full.
Superman : I'm being serious.
Lois Lane : Seriously this is an opportunity a journalist never gets. I'll be fine.
[Looks over at the women in the next cell then back at Superman]
Lois Lane : Other than the fact that I miss my husband.
Superman : He misses you.
Lois Lane : We're newlyweds you know.
Superman : I know.
Lois Lane : I miss his arms, his neck, his lips.
Superman : So does he... miss those things of yours. He's, uh, working on getting you a first class attorney so you can get out of here.
Lois Lane : An attorney? I guess that means they don't have any other suspects?
Superman : You can see why your husband is worried this may be too tough a situation here. If it is too tough all you have to do is say the word and he can *lift* your spirit.
[Uses his eyes to show he will lift her out of the jail]
Lois Lane : He already has.
Superman : Well I better go.
Lois Lane : Thanks for stopping by.
-
Detective : Miss Lane, Mr Kent.
Lois Lane : Yes detective that's us. Mr & Mrs Lane Kent. Lane and Kent.
Detective : How are you?
Lois Lane : Fine, just fine.
Detective : The district attorney and I both hope you enjoyed your apricot muffin and cappuccino this morning.
Clark Kent : You followed us?
Detective : Accompanied... from behind. You two are fast walkers, took us a minute to catch up.
Clark Kent : Oh well geez, sorry.
Detective : Oh that's okay. The DA's office thought it might reassure you Miss Lane to feel our presence... everywhere.
Lois Lane : Well, thank you. I hope it isn't a burden.
Detective : See you... constantly.
[He leaves]
Clark Kent : It's okay Lois.
Lois Lane : So that's how it's gonna be. I may be out but they will never leave me alone. Once your marked as a criminal they treat you like a criminal forever.
Clark Kent : Honey you are no criminal. You're my wife.
-
[Lois is frantically flipping through files and papers]
Clark Kent : Lois, Honey... Honey
Lois Lane : I'm fine really.
Clark Kent : Yeah okay but why don't you just relax for a minute or even 30 seconds. Honey, look Honey, I wallpapered the entire house by myself super-speed, you can yell at me for a little while.
Lois Lane : Yell, you? I love the wallpaper. Oh I think I have another box of files upstairs.
[rushes out of the room]
-
Superman : [Talking to Lois inside her jail cell] Honey I can't believe you've been sitting on all your fears, holding all this stuff inside you. You told me you would tell me if things got too bad.
Lois Lane : And if I did you would go off and do something crazy.
Superman : Yeah you bet I would! You're my wife and I love you. Anything that helps you isn't crazy.
Lois Lane : [Looks around and makes sure no one is listening] Breaking me out of here is and I know that's what you are thinking.
Superman : I was not thinking that.
[Lois gives him a look]
Superman : I was just... sort of... feeling that.
Lois Lane : Oh Clark. Not only do you give me hope, you give the world hope and you do that by obeying the rules. You lend your strength to help everybody get a fair deal.
Superman : If anybody deserves a fair deal it's you, even if you weren't my wife.
Lois Lane : But if you help me by breaking the rules you're going to damage something you are. A symbol of decency, of fairness.
Superman : [Lets out a big sigh] I'm gonna get you out of here.
Lois Lane : I know you will. The right way. Through the door, not the window.
[They kiss]
Superman : [Hears someone coming] I better go. I love you.
[Kisses Lois again and flys out]
Lois Lane : [Looks at where he left longingly] I love you.
-
D.A. Clemmons : Isn't it true that you are more than just good friends with Lois Lane. Isn't it true, I dare say, that you might even love Lois Lane? I repeat the question. Do you love Lois Lane Superman?
[Superman looks at Lois and she shakes her head slightly]
Superman : I can say, beyond a shadow of a doubt... that Clark Kent loves Lois Lane. And I respect that love just like I respect the truth. And my job is to uphold the truth. And that is what I would do anything for.
-
Lois Lane : Maybe the explanation is obvious. I'm guilty.
Clark Kent : What?
Lois Lane : I said I'm guilty. Of arrogance. Thinking that because I'm famous and popular, educated and polite... well not always polite but all those other things, that I was special.
Clark Kent : Honey you are special.
Lois Lane : And even though I know the system can be unfair to some people, I never thought it would be unfair to me.
Clark Kent : Lois. We're gonna get to the truth.
Lois Lane : The truth is... I don't know. Maybe I deserve this.
Clark Kent : Honey stop it. Now remember no matter what happens, we're together. Through everything.
-
Lois Lane : So far between your stuff and my stuff we've got two coffee pots, two irons, two toasters, two blenders and two crock pots. I don't even know what a crock pot does.
Clark Kent : It takes up room and collects dust.
-
[Lois has just been released from jail to await trial]
Clark Kent : Honey I don't know about you but last night was hell for me. So if you can't take it...
Lois Lane : I'm okay.
Clark Kent : ...you would tell me wouldn't you? Because you know I would never put up with anything hurting you.
Lois Lane : I completely know that. So let's just figure this mess out and get me cleared so I can be home with you.
Clark Kent : Okay.
-
D.A. Clemmons : [On the TV] I won't comment on an ongoing investigation other than to say that we're gathering new evidence all the time and that Lois Lane remains the prime suspect in this case.
Lois Lane : Tell me I didn't vote for that guy.
Clark Kent : [Finishing up a phone call] Okay, thanks.
[Hangs up]
Clark Kent : The police did a scan on the bullet casing and couldn't find anything suspicious.
Lois Lane : Great. Meanwhile Clemmons is using me as a stepping stone to the governor's mansion.
Clark Kent : Over my dead body!
