- Chloe Sullivan: Clark, what really happened out there?
- Clark Kent: I should have listened to you, Chloe. You tried to warn me. I had my hand around that guy's throat. And I thought if I just kept squeezing the life out of him, then it would make everything right again.
- Chloe Sullivan: God, Clark. But you didn't?
- Clark Kent: No.
- Chloe Sullivan: What made you stop?
- Clark Kent: My dad's voice. This is gonna sound weird, but I... I could hear him. He was the one who always kept me from going over the edge when I was too close.
- Chloe Sullivan: It's too bad Andrea didn't step back in time. I think Metropolis could really use someone like her right now. Do you think you could ever do what she did? Play the mild-mannered reporter by day and a crime fighter by night?
- Clark Kent: Honestly, I'm kind of hoping I can find a way to not have to hide who I really am.
- Chloe Sullivan: I thought the glasses were fake.
- Andrea Rojas: Are you kidding? I'm blind as a bat. Besides, the mask doesn't look so good with glasses over it.
- Chloe Sullivan: Hm. Acuvue to the rescue.
- Chloe Sullivan: All right, you know what? We've taken this show all over town, and this obviously isn't working.
- Clark Kent: You're not screaming loud enough.
- Chloe Sullivan: Clark, I have freaked out every alley cat within a four-block radius.
