Lois Lane

What are these for?

Nothing says "Sorry My Doppelganger From A Parallel Earth Tried To Kill You" like flowers.

Lois Lane

I think there's a card for that now.

The store was out. I destroyed the mirror box. You won't ever have to worry about seeing him again.

Lois Lane

He wasn't you, Clark. I mean, not you you.

Well, I know the circumstances were different from that side, but that was still me in that mirror. And the way you looked at me, Lois, it was so much hate...it was like you already formed your opinion about Clark Luthor -- for good reason. He was a monster. I was a monster.

Lois Lane

Kind of makes you wonder how "Earth Two" Lois Lane managed to put up with such a colossal tool.

Consider yourself universally consistent. Didn't cut him any slack. But I do think she was about to give him another chance.

Lois Lane

You don't need to worry about second chances with me. You're doing really well with the first one.

(nervously to Lois) Listen, why don't we go get something to eat at the new place?

Lois Lane

You mean the place that requires reservations six months in advance? That's a nice thought Romeo but we will never get a table.

We will never know unless we ask and I hope the answer is yes.

Lois Lane

I'll get you help. Okay?

No. It's too late. Hey. I'm a pro at dying, remember?

I should have been there, Carter. I'm sorry.

Can't always be you, Clark. This is all our fight. Listen. Listen! This is what we do. And my passing means I'll be with Shayera again.

I owe you so much, I don't even know how to begin to thank you.

You just did. You hold on to her. Because there has to be a balance, Clark. We can't do what we have to do if there's an emptiness in our hearts. Remember that.

I will. I promise.

Oh, I am sorry I won't be able to help you fight the darkness. (looks at Lois) But you have all the help that you need.

Lois Lane

Chloe would never hurt Oliver.

Not unless he got in her way, like these guys. (they watch a video of Chloe gunning down VRA guards)

Lois Lane

Well, I can't be right. And I hate to crash on your tea party, but my cousin is no Benedict Arnold.

She's taking out operatives in cold blood, Lois! I don't know whose side she's on, but it's not ours!

Lois Lane

Not everybody switches sides as easily as some of us. And let's not forget, when we first met Black Canary, she was nothing more than Lex Luthor's little organ-grinder monkey. I mean, did you ever look to see who the bad guys really are before you start throwing knives and spin-kicks there, chickadee?

Violent criminals deserve to fry. And if your cousin's one of them, well, that's a campfire that I'm not afraid to sing around.

I've been thinking about what you said -- that I should shut my eyes and ears to the outside world to figure what's true. You made me believe. And you got me to fly. Even if it was just in cyberspace.

Lois Lane

Well, I have to say Smallville, that soaring over the Daily Planet and the spires of Metropolis was amazing.

Well, who knows? Maybe one day, we'll get to fly in the real world.

Lois Lane

I've always believed that you can do the impossible, and one day you will.

And I should be wearing a mask. Unfortunately, I've lived my entire life up until this point without needing one. That's why I've been so reluctant. I mean, this is the face that my parents raised. It's the face of the man that you love. And I don't want to deny who I am when I'm out there doing what I was born to do.

Lois Lane

Then why bother with the jacket, Clark, the symbols?

When I'm out there in the red and blue, and I'm saving people, that's who I really am. And I know this is gonna sound weird, but it's not what I'm called that should define who I am. It's who I am that should define what I'm called. Clark Kent - it's...it's just a name. It's just a word. I am The Blur, and I always have been.

Lois Lane

Clark, you can't just whip out a new costume at work.

The Blur is not the disguise, Lois. Clark Kent will be the mask.

Lois Lane

Okay. Okay, but the only way the glasses are ever going to work...

If I adjust my behavior when I use them. I know. The world needs to believe that Clark Kent is way too normal to be...

Lois Lane

Super.

And even though we silenced Godfrey, we shutdown Granny's orphanage, and buried Desaad underneath Belle Reve, it's not the last time we've seen Darkseid. But I'll be ready...(puts on glasses)...hiding in plain sight.

Lois Lane

So you're willing to dial back the hometown hero and crank up the Average Joe?

If that's what it takes to be the hero the people need, (glasses slide down a little; he pushes glasses up nose in iconic fashion)...yes, Miss Lane, I am.

Conner has... he's only half Lex, it turns out.

Lois Lane

What? Okay, if you say the other half is Tess, I'm going to officially write that family off for good.

Lois, the other half is me.

Lois Lane

Are you trying to tell me that Conner is the genetic love child of Clark Kent and Lex Luthor?

You don't have to say it like that.

TKTed Kord

This boy is absolutely unique. He managed to shut down the scarab.

Lois Lane

I'm guessing not everyone has what it takes to do that. So, Mr. Kord, does this mean that you'll be able to remove it from him?

JRJaime Reyes

I-- No. I mean, will that take away the powers it gives me?

TKTed Kord

Yes, but--

JRJaime Reyes

I want to learn how to use them. I want to be a hero like Booster Gold.

I don't know, kid. You know... what do you say we give Miss Lane here an exclusive on the real hero of the day?

Hey, Lois. Where can I put this box?

Lois Lane

Well, I don't think that requires any super-sleuthing. It does say "living room".

No, I can decipher your scrawl. I'm just thinking it was mislabeled.

Lois Lane

If you're talking about my Whitesnake throw pillow, loving everything about me includes the sentimental. I made this from my 8th grade concert t-shirt. And I talked to Oliver, and he told me how smoothly he and Chloe fused their hero green and geek chic.

Don't worry. My "for better or worse" will include your love of hair metal.

Kal-El, my son, you have returned.

Jor-El, I come here today as a Kryptonian, as a member of your house, and your son. In honor of our home, I'm here to declare my desire to start a life bond with this woman...Lois Lane.

Lois Lane, do you truly intend to initiate a life union with my son?

Lois Lane

I do.

Your pledge is observed. If your lives are to be joined, then you must both understand.

Lois Lane

There's no Chloe quip that's gonna change my mind. Clark can hear the world's cries for help, and he's duty-bound to answer the call. I'm not gonna stand in his way.

He can't listen all the time, Lois. He's not God. He can't be aware of every bird or blade of grass, okay? He's a man. And sometimes he needs to not listen. He needs to rest, to love, to laugh. And when he finally does to decide to take to the skies, he's gonna need you to ground him.

Lois Lane

Well, that's what I'm afraid of. I'm grounding him, keeping him from soaring to new heights.

Oh, Lois...that is so not what he thinks. But since you're not gonna meet him at the altar...(gives Clark's vows to her)...you should hear that from his own words.

Lois, we know the prophets use the people's darkness to mark them with an Omega. What we don't know is why. And Tess quoted one of the prophecies as saying that the markings weren't just spiritual. There's some sort of anti-life dark force that could bring about the Apokolips.

Lois Lane

You mean like bringing a giant planet crashing into ours?

Exactly like that. Maybe the marking has some sort of unexplainable gravitational pull.

Lois Lane

Too bad anti-life equations aren't covered in Physics 101.

I need to figure out a way to lift the darkness and break whatever's binding these people to that planet.

Lois Lane

Today definitely tops Chloe's Wall of Weird. Exactly how many are marked?

(scans the people in the room with his x-ray vision, they are marked with the Omega) More than you want to know.
