Erica Durance: Lois Lane

Quotes 

• Lois Lane : What are you doing here?

  Clark Kent : I heard they had good espresso.

  Lois Lane : You disappear for a month and come back with a sense of humor?

  Clark Kent : I've been tracking Chloe down. The question is, how did you get here?

  Lois Lane : Feminine Charm.

  [Clark scoffs] 

  Lois Lane : Yes, I do have some.

  Clark Kent : Great job protecting your short supply of it.

  Lois Lane : Why don't you give your stand up a rest, and do exactly what I tell you, that why we can find Chloe, and stay alive at the same time.

• Clark Kent : I'll see you bright and early Monday morning.

  [starts to leave room] 

  Lois Lane : Whoa, whoa, why Monday, what do you mean bright and early?

  Clark Kent : Lois, you're the one who gave me the application. You're looking at the newest recruit to the Daily Planet.

  Lois Lane : [Lois looks completely stunned]  That's great. What made you change your mind?

  Clark Kent : I guess I wanted to be in the middle of the action.

  Lois Lane : Good for you. So are you going to be starting down in the mailroom?

  Clark Kent : No... I'm going to be a little closer to home.

  [smiles and glances at a turned over nameplate on the desk opposite Lois'] 

  Clark Kent : Looks like we're going to be neighbors Lane.

  [leaves room grinning] 

  Lois Lane : [turns over nameplate and sees Clark's name]  You've got to be kidding me.

  [looks annoyed for a moment and then smiles] 

• Clark Kent : [Lois and Clark walking down a hallway in search of Chloe, Clark doesn't have his powers at this point] 

  [Lois is carrying a gun] 

  Clark Kent : You mind not pointing that thing at me?

  Lois Lane : God, Clark, I'm not aiming at you.

  [Clark looks over, unsure] 

  Lois Lane : What? I'm not. Besides, it's only your kneecap.

  Clark Kent : Well, that makes me feel a lot better.

• Clark Kent : [absent-mindedly squeaking his chair]  Oh, I'm sorry. Is this bothering you?

  Lois Lane : The chair or you in it?

• Tess Mercer : You missed a spot.

  Lois Lane : Oui, oui, madame.

  Tess Mercer : And the floors, they've lost their sheen. You're not getting lazy, are you?

  Lois Lane : I didn't realize Lex's secretarial staff could spot a speck of dust from across the room.

  Tess Mercer : I'm as much a secretary as you are a French maid. I've been so looking forward to meeting the intrepid reporter Lois Lane. So, you like to play dress-up?

  Lois Lane : If you're not a secretary, who are you? Lex's 4:00 p.m. booty call?

• Tess Mercer : I realize Mr. Luthor gave you quite a bit of journalistic rope knowing you'd eventually hang yourself. Me, on the other hand, I'm a little less patient.

  Lois Lane : I'm not here as a reporter. I'm here to find my cousin, Chloe Sullivan.

  Tess Mercer : I doubt she's hiding under the furniture.

  Lois Lane : Lex had her arrested by the Department of Domestic Security, but the DDS claims to have no record of her. I want access to Lex's phone records from the day he made the call. I want that agent's name.

  Tess Mercer : Mr. Luthor is a firm believer in truth and justice, Ms. Lane. You can rest assured if he had your cousin arrested, she was guilty.

  Lois Lane : The only thing Chloe's been guilty of is standing up for what she believes in.
