- Grant Gabriel: Congratulations on the Daily Planet. Wonderful. One more piece in my life you can control, starting with my creation.
- Lex Luthor: I can't believe you let that lunatic sneak his ideas into your head. You're my brother.
- Grant Gabriel: No, Lex. I'm an experiment. Beneath all that arrogance, your cracks are starting to show. Did you really think you could keep this a secret? Or are you so desperate to mean something to someone, it was worth the risk?
- Lex Luthor: You can't punish me for wanting a family.
- Grant Gabriel: How am I supposed to feel, being the product of a man who's destroyed everything he's ever touched?
- Lex Luthor: No. You're different, Julian. If I didn't love you, you wouldn't be here.
- Grant Gabriel: I'm living proof you've forgotten how to love. But if you wanna play God, you might wanna remember his greatest gift, free will. Let me live my life.
- Jimmy Olsen: So, can I assumed that special ability has to do with that super-sized brain inside your head?
- Chloe Sullivan: No. My nerd is all natural.
- Jimmy Olsen: Oh, my God. Can you fly?
- Chloe Sullivan: Here, Jimmy. Just watch.
- [heals a cut on Jimmy's finger]
- Jimmy Olsen: I didn't really think... Where were you in ninth-grade rugby?
- Chloe Sullivan: Believe me, no golden trophy is worth these side effects.
- Jimmy Olsen: You okay?
- Chloe Sullivan: Yeah, I'm fine. Can you just, uh, promise me that we keep this between me, you, and my Neosporin?
- Jimmy Olsen: I promise. But you're still the same Chloe.
- Jimmy Olsen: [to Chloe] Regardless, you call Clark before you dial 911. I mean, what's he gonna do, dismantle the bomb with his great hair?
- Lois Lane: Mr. Luthor, perhaps we could start by discussing Project Gemini.
- Lex Luthor: Excuse me?
- Lois Lane: My sources tell me you run some kind of an ant farm except instead of ants, it's humans and instead of a farm, it's a lab.
- Grant Gabriel: Lois.
- Lex Luthor: Now that you're renowned for your eloquence, Lois, but, uh, I have no idea what you're talking about.
- Lois Lane: Human cloning. The replication of a DNA sequence produced from a single identical ancestor.
- Lex Luthor: My mistake. I didn't realize you'd be pitching me a Hollywood movie. Is this how you run your paper, Mr. Gabriel?
- Adrian: You created me in a test tube, you kept me like some pet, so you could have a brother? Is that why you couldn't get rid of me?
- Lex Luthor: You're not my brother!
- Lex Luthor: [shoots Adrian] You're a mistake.
- Lex Luthor: Look, not that it matters, but you're no longer running my exposé.
- Lois Lane: Nuh uh. You'll have to take that up with my boss.
- Lex Luthor: I am your boss. Merry Christmas, Lois. I just bought the Daily Planet.
- Grant Gabriel: [to Lex] ... If you wanna play God, you might wanna remember his greatest gift - free will.
