You know what they say: lightning never strikes twice in the same place. Look, my guess is that your powers aren't coming back.
Maybe being normal won't be so bad; I mean it works for you and Mom.
You don't feel any differently about me now do you?
Clark, you're our son whether you can bench-press the tractor or not.
Well, life isn't easy for anybody, whether you're normal or super. But you're still Clark Kent. You were raised a certain way and that's never gonna change. Sure, your abilities were part of you, but they didn't define you.
[to Victoria] If sleeping with me was just business, I'd hate to think what that makes you.
You think I'm hiding something from you? Here. Take this hammer. Hit me anywhere.
I'm not gonna hit you, Clark.
Come on! If I can get hit by a car, you can't hurt me.
Clark, I just want the truth.
The truth is I'm just a guy who tried to do the right thing. Isn't that enough?
Can you imagine waking up one morning and having powers?
It's scary... I guess. I mean, look at Eric. It hasn't helped him.
That's true. But I still always wished I could fly.
Yeah, that'd be something, Lana.
Clark, your gifts are... well, they're part of you but they don't define you.
I know. But they complicate all of our lives.
Seeing how destructive Eric got, it just reminds me of how special you really are.
That's because Eric didn't get my two strongest gifts. You and Mom.
I just want to say I'm sorry.
Well, I am perturbed with you, Clark. I'm also mad that you didn't put out the Chicago fire of 1871, or prevent the fall of the Roman Empire, making you directly responsible for the Dark Ages.
Clark, you can't save the world. All you'll end up with is a Messiah complex and a lot of enemies.
I saved you, didn't I? That turned out all right.
Chloe, you can't just go snooping around someone's house.
It's a mansion. It's designed for snooping.
Like a million bucks... thrown in the washing machine set on spin.
The question is, how'd they get inside?
I don't know. Now stop channeling Chloe and come on. [Clark uses his x-ray vision] Oh no, not the Kent thousand-yard stare.
No offense, Clark, but digging up six pages of interesting on you is going to require some serious excavation.
Yes, and I'm sure that once I deploy my journalistic skills on you, I'll be able to unearth a skeleton or two.
You know, Chloe, this is a class project, not a corruption scandal.
Relax, Clark, it's not like you have anything to hide, right?
In a world of designer water, Clark Kent is straight from the tap.
Let's just say that it's a very long road between what's sitting in our storm cellar and what's written on your birth certificate.
There was this bully three grades ahead of us. This dude was determined to pound dents into every kid in the school. One day, I guess it was my turn. He was just about to take my head off when Clark jumped between us.
So Clark ran interference. Now, as kind as that sounds, Pete, I really don't think it falls under the "something amazing" test.
I'm not finished. Clark didn't just push brain-dead away. He put him through a door, as in splinters and broken hinges. How he did it, I still have no idea. The guy was at least twice our size.
Uh, well, we were, you know, six years old. Twice our size was three feet tall.
My biological parents are either dead or didn't want me. The point is, you're prying into my private life.
I was just trying to be thorough.
This is a class project. I spent an hour yesterday with Lana. That's it. That's all I needed. I'm not some mystery for you to solve.
