Lana Lang : [a quiet sunset leaves the air silent as Lana walks into Clark's barn with a bad feeling about what's coming as she slowly walks up the steps] I've climbed these steps before so many times, why do they seem steeper than ever?
Clark Kent : Thanks for coming over. I didn't want to bother you at school.
Lana Lang : Look, Clark you can spare me the speech about how sorry you are. I know you were hypnotized and you weren't in control of your actions.
Clark Kent : [With reluctance] I need to be honest with you.
Lana Lang : That would be refreshing.
Clark Kent : [Choked up] I don't know any other way to say it... but the truth is... my feelings for you have changed.
Lana Lang : [She walks over to him looking him straight in the eyes] Clark, I want you to look me in the eye and tell me you don't love me.
Clark Kent : [Clark turns to her with tears in his eyes and she looks upon him with fear] I don't love you.
Lana Lang : [Lana sits down having just had her heart crushed by the man she's loved for so long with tears in her eyes] I have waited... for you to grow up, to get over whatever hang-ups you may have.
Clark Kent : [Kneeling down in front of her] I never meant to hurt you.
Lana Lang : I don't want another Clark Kent apology.
[after pulling back her tears]
Lana Lang : It's over... forever.
[She walks out on a broken Clark staring in sadness of what he's just had to sacrifice]

Martha Kent : You're an adult now, Clark, in an adult relationship, and they rarely end the way we want them to.
Clark Kent : You know, I just didn't know what else to do. It was either make a clean break or tell her my secret.
Martha Kent : Yeah. I know you didn't tell Lana the truth because you wanted to protect her, but maybe there was actually more to it.
Clark Kent : What do you mean?
Martha Kent : Do you think you didn't tell her because maybe, deep down, you didn't think she was the one?
Clark Kent : I'll always love Lana.
Martha Kent : I know. That's why you did this. But you didn't just break her heart, Clark. You gave her reason to hate you. I just hope her anger doesn't drive her to do something we'll all regret.

Chloe Sullivan : Are you still hypnoed?
Clark Kent : Chloe... how many times can I break someone's heart before it crumbles to pieces?
Chloe Sullivan : Yeah, but it wasn't your fault. You were hypnotized!
Clark Kent : Lana wasn't. Chloe, her feelings were real. The look of pain in her eye when she walked in on Simone and I made me realize that my power to hurt Lana is stronger than all my powers put together.
Chloe Sullivan : But it's not like meeting a girl with hocus pocus jewelry is an everyday occurrence.
Clark Kent : Yeah, but hurting Lana has become one. And as long as I have to lie to her about who I really am, I'm gonna cause her pain.
Chloe Sullivan : And as long as you don't set the record straight, she's gonna hate you.
Clark Kent : Maybe that's not such a bad thing. Maybe it'll help her move on with her life, forget I ever existed, and then find someone who can give her what she deserves.
Chloe Sullivan : Just... you need to know that if you do this, that's it. Game over, there's no more quarters left. I mean, you're saying goodbye forever. It will crush her, Clark. Please just think long and hard before you end this for good.

Chloe Sullivan : [about Lana] Have you talked to her yet? You guys kiss and make up?
[Clark looks away]
Chloe Sullivan : You haven't talked to her, have you?
Clark Kent : No.
Chloe Sullivan : What are you waiting for? I mean, she knows you were hypnotized. And besides, like every single one of us has gone through some sort of an identity crisis at one point or another. It's like a rite of passage in Smallville.
