Quotes
-
Superman : [after preventing a nuclear power plant meltdown] It's just like Oyster Creek. Same kind of crack in the cooling tower.
General Sam Lane : How is it no one at either plant saw anything?
Superman : I don't know yet. But you can't get equipment in here unnoticed. Both cracks were man-made.
General Sam Lane : That's what concerns me.
-
General Sam Lane : You've been putting in a lot of OT lately. My daughter okay with that?
Superman : She's not the one I have to worry about.
General Sam Lane : Bass are gonna start biting again soon. Was thinking I'd take Jonathan fishing. Maybe even get Jordan to come this time.
Superman : I'll talk to Lois about some dates. Night, General.
-
General Sam Lane : I tried to warn you, Lois.
Lois Lane : Come on, dad. Not this again.
General Sam Lane : When you wanted to get married, I tried warning you. You may have fallen in love with Clark Kent, but you married Superman. And Superman doesn't get to have a normal life, no matter how much you want one for him. Or yourself.
-
General Sam Lane : Had my team analyze security camera footage from both nuclear plants where the ruptures occurred, and this is the only commonality.
Clark Kent : Whatever did this, it's moving fast.
General Sam Lane : That's not all. We also discovered a sub-microscopic etching at both sites. Thought maybe it was a fingerprint at first. It wasn't.
Clark Kent : [seeing Kryptonian writing] It's Kryptonian. "You are not a hero, Kal-El." Whoever did this knows who I am.
General Sam Lane : He's studying you, Clark. Now, I'm sure there's a phone booth in this podunk town where you can suit up.
