Quotes 

• Lex Luthor : Rachel Dunleavy came to see me. She says you and I have a few chromosomes in common. My father's chromosomes, to be exact.

  Clark Kent : You mean...?

  Lex Luthor : Personally, I think I got all the looks in the family.

  Clark Kent : Lex, I don't know what happened between her and your father, but... she's not my mother.

  Lex Luthor : Trust me, I'm as skeptical about her as you are. For all I know, this is some elaborate scheme to win a paternity suit against my father.

  Clark Kent : Did you ask him about it?

  Lex Luthor : I didn't want to make any accusations until I had more facts. It's not hard to imagine; in the annals of extramarital exploits, my father probably has his own chapter.

• Lex Luthor : So, what do you think, Clark? No chance we could be brothers?

  Clark Kent : As cool as that would be, Lex, we're not.

• Clark Kent : Dominic told me you got in a fight with your father before he got shot. Why didn't you tell the police?

  Lex Luthor : So you're implying I pulled the trigger?

  Clark Kent : It's not like I haven't seen you shot someone before.

  Lex Luthor : Get out of here before you say something you'll really regret.

  Clark Kent : I'm not going anywhere, not until I get some answers. Are you trying to frame my dad?

  Lex Luthor : After all this time, I thought you knew me better than the average tabloid reader.

  Clark Kent : If you don't start trusting me the truth, what else am I to think?

  Lex Luthor : Stay out of it, Clark

  Clark Kent : My dad's life's at stake here!

  Lex Luthor : So is my father's. Goodbye, Clark.

• Lex Luthor : You knew my mother?

  Rachel Dunleavy : And your father. He and I became very close. He got me pregnant and made me give the child up for adoption.

  Lex Luthor : You're claiming that Clark...? That Clark and I...?

  Rachel Dunleavy : He's your brother, Lex.
