Van-El, Jor-El and others in “Unfinished Business”

VEVan-El

What's this one, Grandpa? And this! Whoa! Where'd you get--

JEJor-El

One minute, Van. Something's bothering you.

KEKal-El

Here. And here. And here.

JEJor-El

A series of mild tremors. Not unusual. I don't see what--

KEKal-El

Something's wrong, Dad. Something's going to happen. I can feel it in--

JEJor-El

Oh, so you're a scientist now.

KEKal-El

Dad.

JEJor-El

Do I have to remind you about a certain prediction of my own? Made, I'm embarrassed to say, when you were only a few days old. I announced to the world that Krypton was going to explode, and it took me years to salvage my reputation.

KEKal-El

But maybe you were right. Maybe-- Maybe I've just been working too hard.

JEJor-El

The past is dead. Focus on the feature.

VEVan-El

Can we go up to the roof, Grandpa?

KEKal-El

Somebody wants to see my macroscope.

JEJor-El

Go on up with your father, Van. I'll be along in a few minutes.

VEVan-El

Let's go.

KEKal-El

It's not right.

Yes, that's it. Fight it, Clark. Fight it. Fight it.

[On Krypton; Kal-El is with his son Van-El on the roof of his father's lab, as Van looks through a telescope]

VEVan-El

Dad! [The ground shakes] Dad? You've gotta look at thi-- [Sees Kal-El's troubled expression] What's-- What's the matter? Why are you--

KEKal-El

Van, when you were born, it was the happiest day of my life. When I first saw your beautiful little face, your tiny fingers squeezed my hands so tight, like you never wanted to let go. I've watched every step, every struggle... I've... but, Van...[eyes begin to water] Oh, Rao, help me. But I don't think you're real. I don't think any of this is real.

VEVan-El

Don't say that, Daddy. Please, you're scaring me... [hugs his father]

KEKal-El

No, no, I don't wanna scare you, Van. You are everything I ever wanted in a son. This... this is everything I ever wanted in a life. But I've got responsibilities, Van. And... I... have to... go now.

[Hugs his son as Krypton begins to tear itself apart, and kisses him on the forehead]

VEVan-El

[Tearful] Daddy...

KEKal-El

I promise you... I'll never forget.

[Krypton explodes]

Yes!
