Quotes
-
Martha Kent : That was Lana. Third time tonight, Clark. Won't you talk to her?
Teenage Clark Kent : Oh, what can I say, Ma? I don't even know how it happened. Suddenly, I was running faster than I've ever run in my life. I ripped the camper apart like it was cardboard. And the fire never touched me. I've always felt I was different, even before you and Pa told me I was adopted, but how is it possible to do these things?
Jonathan Kent : I think it's time, Martha.
[cut to them leading Clark into the barn]
Jonathan Kent : [opening a crate] We never showed you this, son. I guess we didn't know how to explain it. Still don't.
[Clark sees his Kryptonian ship]
Jonathan Kent : You know how some babies are found in baskets? Well, this is how we found you.
Teenage Clark Kent : You're kidding, right?
[seeing their looks]
Teenage Clark Kent : You're not. So... where did I come from?
Martha Kent : We don't know. There wasn't much inside. Just some blankets and... this.
Jonathan Kent : [showing him a metal box] Never could get the darn thing open. Maybe you've got the magic touch.
-
Jonathan Kent : Put that thing back. We don't know where it came from.
Martha Kent : He's not a thing, Jonathan, he's a baby! A little baby. Who'd put a baby in a spaceship?
Jonathan Kent : That's just my point. It could be Russian, a Sputnik baby.
Martha Kent : Oh, really!
Jonathan Kent : Maybe he's one of ours. You think NASA is missing a kid?
Martha Kent : I don't care where he came from. All I know is he needs us, Jonathan.
-
Teenage Clark Kent : [bending a metal bar] Getting stronger every day, Pa. And that's not the half of it. Look.
[focusing on it, he melts a section with his heat vision]
Jonathan Kent : It's getting hot. All you did was look at it.
Teenage Clark Kent : I know.

Jor-El : By the time you see this, our world will have been gone for many years.
Lara : You are the sole survivor of Krypton, a planet similar to Earth in many ways. This was our home.
Teenage Clark Kent : No. No, it can't be true.
Martha Kent : It's hurting him.
Jonathan Kent : Let him be, Martha.
Jor-El : You may have already discovered that you are much stronger and faster than a normal human being.
Teenage Clark Kent : I *am* a normal human being.
Lara : Your Kryptonian body draws its strength from Earth's yellow sun.
Jor-El : It will give you abilities that no other human has.
Teenage Clark Kent : I don't believe any of this.
Lara : Some people will fear you, perhaps even try to destroy you. Despite this, you must never use your powers in anger.
Jor-El : Be brave, my son. Remember who you are and the legacy you carry inside you.
Lara : We love you, Kal-El, always.
Teenage Clark Kent : [as he reaches out to touch her hand, the message ends] It's not true. I'm not a freak. I'm not! I'm not!
Martha Kent : [he punches a wooden beam in anger] Clark!
Jonathan Kent : [he runs away] Clark, come back!
-
Jonathan Kent : [finding the baby Kal-El] Cute little fella. Got a good grip, too. Ow.
[Kal squeezes a little too hard]
Jonathan Kent : Ow!
Martha Kent : What do you think of the name Christopher?
Jonathan Kent : Now, Martha, let's discuss this.
Martha Kent : Or Kevin?
Jonathan Kent : Martha!
Martha Kent : Or Kirk. I know we can use my maiden name. What do you think of...
Ms. Stevenson : [cut to Clark daydreaming in class] Clark! Clark Kent!
Teenage Clark Kent : Y-Yes, Ms. Stevenson?
Ms. Stevenson : Looks like you've daydreamed your way to another perfect score.
Lana Lang : Once again, the boy genius performs to his usual standards.
Ms. Stevenson : And so did you, Ms. Lang.
Lana Lang : [seeing she got a D-] Ooh.
