Eric Keenleyside: Mayor George Dean

Quotes 

• Kyle Cushing : How many jobs you looking to provide? Just so they know.

  Morgan Edge : From entry-level to tradesman, we're estimating around 600.

  Kyle Cushing : And that's not including peripheral jobs, folks.

  Mayor George Dean : So, if there are no more questions...

  Lois Lane : I have a question. That jobs number you say is an estimate?

  Morgan Edge : That's right, Ms. Lane. It's difficult to guarantee an exact figure.

  Lois Lane : So is there a number that's more feasible? Because I would hate for what happened in New Carthage to happen here.

  Morgan Edge : Such as?

  Lois Lane : Missing job-creation targets by nearly 50%, paying well below living wage, that kind of thing.

  Morgan Edge : Here's what I love about Lois Lane: when she smells a story, she goes after it with everything she has, even if it concerns her own boss. I thought those mines would be fruitful. I was wrong. But what I promised those people was that I'd take a risk on them when no one else would, and that's exactly what I've come here to offer everyone: a chance to save this town and improve its residents' lives. But perhaps you're right, Ms. Lane. Perhaps Smallville isn't the place to take a risk right now. I certainly wouldn't want to cause any harm to this great community. Maybe that's something you all need to discuss further.
