Quotes

Chrissy Beppo : We need a story, Lois. Big story, front page, catchy banner, something like "The Edge of Humanity." Maybe something better than that.
Lois Lane : It's a jumping-off point.
Chrissy Beppo : This is the biggest story of the year, the biggest story of my career. This is like Superman first showing up in Metropolis big.
Lois Lane : That's why we need to do more interviews. What we're lacking in hard evidence, we can make up for with eyewitness testimonies.
Chrissy Beppo : Anything to back up all this crazy.
Lois Lane : We need to talk to more Edge employees. We have to talk to the mayor...
Chrissy Beppo : Your dad.
Lois Lane : He doesn't do interviews. DOD always releases a statement, though.
Chrissy Beppo : When?
Lois Lane : I don't know. Probably soon.
Chrissy Beppo : Lois, people are calling here non-stop, freaking out, all with bits and pieces of information, mostly gossip. They're desperate for answers, and I feel a lot better giving it to them if we had some kind of verification from the DOD.
Lois Lane : [seeing her look] I'll reach out to him right now.

Chrissy Beppo : No comment? They always give a comment.
Lois Lane : Yeah, I don't know what to say.
Chrissy Beppo : Well, is it because we're a small paper? You always got a statement when you were at the Planet.
Lois Lane : Chrissy, we don't need the DOD or my dad. We can do more interviews and write what we want.
Chrissy Beppo : It just doesn't make any sense. Is this story different somehow?
Lois Lane : Not that I know of.
Chrissy Beppo : Lois, what is he hiding?
Lois Lane : I don't know, Chrissy.
Chrissy Beppo : Are you lying right now?
Lois Lane : No.
Chrissy Beppo : You're totally lying.
Lois Lane : Chrissy, it's not what you think.
Chrissy Beppo : Lois Lane is protecting the DOD. You're supposed to be on the side of the people, not the man. I thought we were in this together.
Lois Lane : Chrissy...
Chrissy Beppo : Lois, if you can't tell me the truth, then maybe you should leave.

Chrissy Beppo : Wasn't expecting to see you.
Lois Lane : I owe you an apology.
Chrissy Beppo : Kinda busy, Lois.
Lois Lane : You were right. I lied. My dad is hiding something, and I can't betray his trust.
Chrissy Beppo : This story is bigger than you or your dad. We have a responsibility to the people. This town is falling apart.
Lois Lane : Believe me, I know. People are tearing each other down, looking for someone to blame, and if we do nothing, we are as responsible for its downfall as anyone else.
Chrissy Beppo : If only there was something we could do.
Lois Lane : I can't write this story. I'm too close to it to be objective... but you can.
Chrissy Beppo : [taking a folder] It's a statement... from your dad.
Lois Lane : He wouldn't go on the record about everything, but this is enough to tell most of the story and to focus the blame where it belongs: on Morgan Edge.
Chrissy Beppo : This was really messed up, Lois.
Lois Lane : I know. I hope that I can earn back your trust.
