John Schneider: Jonathan Kent

Quotes 

• Jonathan Kent : Hey. I thought you'd be at work all day.

  Martha Kent : Well that's one of the benefits of being the boss. I promoted Linda to assistant manager so I could take a break and spend some time with a ruggedly handsome farmer.

  Jonathan Kent : Well, you're in luck. There just happens to be one sweating in your driveway right now.

  Martha Kent : Maybe I should get the hose and a bucket of soap.

  Jonathan Kent : I've really missed you.

  Martha Kent : Me, too.

• Jonathan Kent : Hey, Clark. Just in time, son. Your mom's working late again, so I thought maybe we'd have guys' night. You know, catch up on the highlights of the game we missed.

  Clark Kent : I saw something at Lex's, dad. It was a page from an old manuscript, and it had Kryptonian symbols on it.

  Jonathan Kent : Kryptonian symbols? Were you able to read 'em?

  Clark Kent : It had a message, repeated over and over: "Look deeper". I used my x-ray vision and I saw a map hidden underneath.

  Jonathan Kent : A map? A map to what?

  Clark Kent : I don't know, dad, but I think it has something to do with Jor-El, and what he sent me after when he was controlling me.

  Jonathan Kent : I want you to leave this alone, Clark.

  Clark Kent : No, dad...

  Jonathan Kent : Son, you're just telling me how you want to have a normal senior year, right? Well, how does traipsing across the globe on Jor-El's crusade fit in with that?

  Clark Kent : It doesn't. But hanging out with Bart reminded me that I'm not normal, dad. Maybe it's time I stopped from who I really am.

  Jonathan Kent : What you really are is a seventeen year old boy. Now sit down

  Clark Kent : Dad, it doesn't matter how old I am. Whatever Jor-El sent me to find, I have a feeling it's very powerful and dangerous, especially if it falls into the wrong hands, and I'm the only one who can stop that from happening.

  Jonathan Kent : How? By stealing this manuscript from Lex?

  Clark Kent : No, he has no idea what he has. All I have to do is sneak back in there and get a better look at it.

  Jonathan Kent : Clark, it's a bad idea. He could see you.

  Clark Kent : I'll be in and out before he even knows I'm there.

• Jonathan Kent : Aw, jeez.

  Clark Kent : The doctor said you're doing great.

  Jonathan Kent : Yeah, right before he gave me this new prescription. Red ones; at least they'll go nicely with my pink, blue, and green ones I'm already taking.

  Clark Kent : I'd rather have more colors in the medicine cabinet than not have you around.

  Jonathan Kent : Yeah, I just didn't want to have to worry your mother with any more of this stuff, that's all.

  Clark Kent : Dad, we both worry about you. What Jor-El did to you because of me...

  Jonathan Kent : Whoa, wait. Wait a minute. In knew what the risks were, Clark. And I'd take 'em again in a heartbeat if it meant keeping you safe.

• Clark Kent : [after Bart saves Jonathan from an oncoming car]  Dad! Dad, are you okay?

  Jonathan Kent : Yeah. Yeah, I think so. Your mother would be visiting me in the hospital again if you hadn't pushed me out of the way.

  Clark Kent : Dad, it wasn't me. I saw someone who can move like I can. I couldn't believe it. He saved you.

• Clark Kent : Dad. I found the kid who stole your wallet, bust I lost him down at the docks. He just took off across the water.

  Jonathan Kent : Uh, son.

  [Clark sees Bart sitting at the kitchen counter eating a meal] 

  Bart Allen : Hey, Clark.

  [takes a drink of milk] 

  Bart Allen : What took you so long?

• Martha Kent : Are you sure you're okay?

  Jonathan Kent : Sweetheart, I'm fine. I wish you wouldn't worry about me all the time.

  Martha Kent : You were in a coma for three months, Jonathan. It's hard not to worry when you've been through so much.

  Jonathan Kent : A little help from modern medicine, I plan on going through a whole lot more. Starting with a romantic evening with my beautiful wife. I thought maybe we could have a little dinner, then drive on down to the lake...

  Martha Kent : I'd love that, sweetheart, but I... I might have to work late again tonight. Running the Talon is a lot more involved than I thought it would be.
