Quotes
-
Courtney Whitmore : What is it?
Tess Mercer : From the scans I've done, it's a diode that emits a frequency into the brain stem, inhibiting higher motor functioning, leaving the wearer open to suggestion.
Courtney Whitmore : Wait, so, it was controlling me?
Clark Kent : You were a puppet.
Tess Mercer : What I wanna know is who's behind Marionette Ventures?
Courtney Whitmore : John Jones and I looked into that company. We know who the shareholders are. Dark Archer, Roulette, Metallo, and some dude named Manta? I mean, that must've been why I was targeted, but, I mean, we never figured out what they were up to.
Clark Kent : They're buying land above the city's aquifer. They're on the verge of controlling all of Metropolis' water.
Lois Lane : Well, that makes sense. They charge big money for every drop, and then the city is at their mercy.
Tess Mercer : [seeing the engraved initials W.S] Is that who I think it is? Winslow Schott.
Clark Kent : Toyman.
Lois Lane : When in doubt, I say go straight to the source.
