Quotes 

• Clark Kent : Have you talked to my dad yet?

  Senator Jack Jennings : I'd say he did most of the talking. After 20 years, the man's still got a hell of a knack for the guilt trip, doesn't he?

  Clark Kent : Usually works 'cause he's right.

  Senator Jack Jennings : Your father's always had some pretty high expectations of the people around him. He's the one man I never wanted to disappoint.

  Clark Kent : You should try being his son. The thing I always try to remember is, no matter how much he lays on he never expects more than he expects of himself.

  Senator Jack Jennings : You think your dad will ever forgive me?

  Clark Kent : Well, I've given him a lot trial runs in the forgiveness arena. Look, I know my dad's friendship means a lot to you. But there's a lot of other people out there who look up to you.

  Senator Jack Jennings : I guess you can only pull off the disguise of being superhuman for so long, huh?

• Jonathan Kent : Going back to the city, facing all those reports takes a lot of guts.

  Senator Jack Jennings : After facing you, live feeds and bloodthirsty journalists are a walk in the park.

• Jonathan Kent : Is that the best you got? I had another six inches out here.

  Senator Jack Jennings : I wasn't sure how rusty your reflexes had gotten.

  Clark Kent : Senator Jennings!

  Senator Jack Jennings : I know it's been a long time, but what happened to "Uncle Jack"?

  Clark Kent : Doesn't seem fit for someone who's on a first-name basis with the governor?

  Senator Jack Jennings : I don't seem to remember the governor winning a state football championship. Congratulations.
