Smallville (TV Series)

Disciple (2010)

Allison Mack: Chloe Sullivan

Quotes 

• Chloe Sullivan : You okay? You don't look so great. Which, for you, is not exactly easy.

  Oliver Queen : Uh, I didn't realize Lois already had a visitor.

  Chloe Sullivan : Come on, Ollie. It's been years since you and Lois steamed up any elevator glass.

• Chloe Sullivan : I didn't want to tell you this over the phone, but...

  [showing him an x-ray] 

  Chloe Sullivan : Lois was shot with an arrow. It went in under her right shoulder. It didn't do any damage, but the doctor said that if it had been just a centimeter to the right or left, her artery would have been ceviche.

  Oliver Queen : She would've died in minutes.

  Chloe Sullivan : Lucky for her, the guy wasn't exactly William Tell.

  Oliver Queen : No. No, this guy makes William Tell look like a summer-camp archery coach. We're not dealing with just some random shot here, Chloe. That's a target specifically designed to take down your enemy without killing them. Our shooter's not an amateur. This guy's a crack marksman. Not many people in the world could hit that shot.

• Chloe Sullivan : And how many arrow-toting Rambos out there know about Watchtower? And of those, how many could hack into my system?

  Clark Kent : Going after Lois? I mean, it's hard for Oliver ever since she and I have...

  Chloe Sullivan : Clark, I know that from the outside, it doesn't seem like Oliver would ever do anything to hurt Lois and me, but his dark half might.

  Clark Kent : He left that half behind.

  Chloe Sullivan : Really? Don't you think he bounced back just a little bit fast? I mean, maybe he suppressed it. Split personalities don't know what the other half is doing.

  Clark Kent : You think that's what happened to him? Chloe, it would take more than drugs and a few boxing blows to make him go Jekyll/Hyde.

• Chloe Sullivan : A few weeks ago, when Oliver saved Victoria Sinclair, he pulled his life out of the emergency lane and crossed the finish line a hero again. But he didn't do it on his own. I changed a couple of tires along the way. I set the whole thing up.

  Clark Kent : What?

  Chloe Sullivan : He was dead hero walking, Clark. I had to do something.

  Clark Kent : So you went out by yourself and you saved him?

  Chloe Sullivan : Isn't that what you do every day?

  Clark Kent : You should have told me.

  Chloe Sullivan : And this is exactly why I didn't tell you, Clark. Anytime you have to pull the trigger on making a difficult decision, you always just walk away.

  Clark Kent : I do what's right.

  Chloe Sullivan : You're not willing to do what's necessary.

  Clark Kent : Pulling the trigger on Oliver, was that necessary?

  Chloe Sullivan : Not if it really shattered him.

  [he turns to leave] 

  Chloe Sullivan : Where are you going?

  Clark Kent : To pick up the pieces.

• Clark Kent : I've checked Oliver's plane, his boat, and all the usual places. I found nothing.

  Chloe Sullivan : Yeah, well, there's not much information on this cult. I mean, that's the problem with secret societies, right? They're just, uh... secret. Still, I was hoping to find some search results.

  Clark Kent : Yeah, Oliver's not the only one I've been worried about. You've been looking at the world through a camera a lot lately, Chloe. Maybe it's time you go out and you actually live in it.

  Chloe Sullivan : I'm just looking out for people, Clark. Same as you.

  Clark Kent : That's the problem with looking out for people; sometimes you lose yourself.

  Chloe Sullivan : Don't worry. No one's getting lost, okay? Everything's under control.

• Chloe Sullivan : Here's something. There was an altar with markings similar to the ones used by the band of merry men. An entrepreneur bought it and he had it shipped from Ireland to his estate in Coast City.

  Clark Kent : There's a naval base nearby. There should be plenty of satellite coverage.

  Chloe Sullivan : I can switch to passive microwave image. That way, we can actually see through the clouds.

  Clark Kent : Chloe, look, the symbol. It's in the form of a maze.

  Chloe Sullivan : There's movement.

  Clark Kent : [she zooms in and he recognizes Mia]  That's the girl who's been training with Oliver.

  Chloe Sullivan : Like an apprentice?

  [glancing at her monitor] 

  Chloe Sullivan : Oh, my god, Clark. There are these vows. No lovers. That would explain why Lois was hit, and no allies, which would explain my purple heart, and no disciples outside of the cult. That's her.

• Chloe Sullivan : Look, I know you probably don't wanna see me anytime this century, but I finished my research with those arrows, and they were heavily collected. Just not by Oliver. Maybe I was wrong.

  Clark Kent : [showing her a stash of hidden arrows he found]  I wish you were.

  Chloe Sullivan : I hate to add another boxcar to the bad-news train, but I've seen this same symbol before during my research.

  Clark Kent : Where's it from?

  Chloe Sullivan : There's a secret Celtic society founded by apprentices and master archers. Rumor was that they were made up of a group of 13th-century vigilante assassins defending coastal towns from attacks. Think like the CIA with arrows and plaid skirts.

  Clark Kent : Do they still exist?

  Chloe Sullivan : Well, they don't exactly have a website, but...

  Clark Kent : [looking at a discussion forum]  Some sort of a mentorship cult. The apprentice follows the orders of their master.

  Chloe Sullivan : And vow to swear off lovers, allies, and disciples.

  Clark Kent : That doesn't sound very Oliver.

  Chloe Sullivan : Well, not exactly the Oliver that we know now, but when he left that island, he went AWOL for, like, a year. Maybe he joined this group.

  Clark Kent : He never did tell me where he honed his skills, and there's only so much you can teach yourself alone on an island.

  Chloe Sullivan : He was still getting over the loss of his parents. I mean, he wouldn't be the first orphan to go and join a cult.

  Clark Kent : So there's a chance this night stalker isn't Oliver. Maybe it's someone from his brotherhood who needs to settle a score.
