Quotes
-
Martha Kent : [Looking at the Kent farmhouse with a gaping hole in it from where the meteor struck the house] Our home...
Jonathan Kent : It's just wood and plaster, Martha. A house can always be rebuilt.
Martha Kent : I guess you're right.
Jonathan Kent : [Clark walks toward his mom and dad] But it does help to have a one-man construction team as a son.
Martha Kent : Hi.
Clark Kent : Hi.
Jonathan Kent : [after observing a short pause, glad to be together again] Don't worry, Clark, things will be back to normal soon enough.
Clark Kent : Actually, things will be a lot more normal around here than you think.
[pauses to prepare himself]
Clark Kent : My abilities are gone.
Martha Kent : [In shock] How?
Clark Kent : Jor-El took them. But, I'm not sure it's such a bad thing. All I've ever wanted is to be normal, and now, finally, I am.
Martha Kent : It is different. You can get hurt now, you're vulnerable.
Clark Kent : Isn't that what it means to be human?
Jonathan Kent : No, I can't believe Jor-El would have given up on you that easily.
Clark Kent : I took care of the danger he warned me about, and if losing my abilities is the consequence then I think he's done with me.
[Walks to Jonathan and Martha and stands beside them]
Clark Kent : Look, none of that matters now. I'm ready to take a step to the future. We'll start by rebuilding this house, one board at a time.

Jonathan Kent : [Martha wakes up in the hospital] Well, Martha Kent, if you were trying to scare me, you did one heck of a job. For a minute there, I thought I lost you.
Martha Kent : Hmm. I guess I found my way back.
