Quotes 

• Lois Lane : Seems like years ago we stood at this window and said goodbye to each other.

  Clark Kent : That was the worst night of my life.

  Lois Lane : Did any part of meeting up with your roots feel good? I mean, was it satisfying in any way, or was it disappointment to you?

  Clark Kent : Maybe all of those. I kept waiting for this incredible feeling of connection, like I was exactly where I belonged... But that's only happened to me once in my life.

  Lois Lane : When?

  Clark Kent : The day I met you.

  Lois Lane : [tears forming in her eyes]  For a space man, you are the most romantic person I've ever known. Earth guys don't stand a chance against you.

  [they kiss] 

  Clark Kent : [pulls away, lifting the necklace up to show her]  I told you I'd keep it safe.

  Lois Lane : As safe as your love for me?

  Clark Kent : Mm-hmm.

  [stands and gently turns her around to sit on the stairs, kneeling] 

  Clark Kent : Marry me, Lois. Let's not plan, let's not wait, let's not let clone-makers or psycho-psychiatrists, or women who shrink people into little people keep us apart. Just marry me.

  Lois Lane : You know, that's precisely what I was thinking.

• Lois Lane : Zara, stir the fudge and turn off the popcorn.

  Zara : [looking around the kitchen]  Which is which?

  Lois Lane : Finally, someone worse in the kitchen than me.

• Lord Nor : I assume the sentence will be carried out post-haste.

  Lois Lane : What about Kal-El's appeal?

  Lord Nor : Well he admittedly is well-built, but he is a trifle dull for my taste.

  Lois Lane : I meant his legal options.

  Lord Nor : Oh, that... There are none.

• Martha Kent : Lois, Honey are you alright?

  Lois Lane : Are you two alright? Oh, could you at least get them some chairs or something?

  Ran : On New Krypton we don't get hostages chairs.

  Lois Lane : You know what, I don't like New Krypton. There I said it. I know that you're supposed to be so intellectually advanced but I think you're a bunch of creeps. And I am sorry that Kal-El even gave you the time of day much less sacrificed everything to save your stupid planet. So, are you going to shoot us over a couple of chairs? I don't think so because we're the only hold you've got over my friend Kal-El who'd be out here in maybe two seconds to mop the floor with you.

  Jonathan Kent : [Clapping]  Well said Lois!

  Martha Kent : Here, here Honey.

• Ran : Kal-El, in accordance with your legal rights you have a visitor. A particularly vile earth women.

  Lois Lane : Watch it, I'm his favorite concubine.

  Kal-El : [Waves the other men away]  Lois you've gotta be careful with these guys, you make 'em mad and they might...

  Lois Lane : I know I'm sorry, I get upset, I shoot my mouth off, I don't know if you've noticed.

  Kal-El : [Smiles]  I have.

  [Pulls her close and hugs her] 

• Jimmy Olsen : They didn't make it.

  Lois Lane : [Cradling Superman]  He's not dead, he's not dead, you're not dead...

  [Superman let's out a long breath] 

  Lois Lane : You're alive!

• Lois Lane : Clark!

  Martha Kent : Clark don't go. Honey a lot more lives are at stake than ours.

  Jonathan Kent : Clark, get out of here.

  Kal-El : I can't do that dad. They'd kill you.

  Lois Lane : [Sees Clark disappearing and she starts to cry]  No... no.

• Clark Kent : It's not me who kept you from the throne. It's the law of your own people.

  Lord Nor : On the contrary, the law of my people will place me on the throne! You are under arrest.

  Clark Kent : Under arrest? For what?

  Martha Kent : He hasn't done anything.

  Jonathan Kent : You're the one who's breaking the law.

  Lois Lane : You hired an assassin to kill him. Is that legal?

  Lord Nor : Excuse me, do any of you hold Kryptonian law degrees?

  Lois Lane : No.

  Lord Nor : Then shut up!
