Quotes 

• Lois Lane : Where the hell have I been for three weeks?

  John Corben : I was kind of hoping you'd tell me. You were M.I.A. until your came up on the list of crash victims. Now, do you remember anything last night that would explain how a 7-ton Skytrain belly flops onto Main Street without a single fatality?

  Lois Lane : Guess we have to mark it up as a modern day miracle.

  John Corben : We could, or we could chalk it up to a vigilante on an ego trip.

  Lois Lane : Oh, is that what we call courage these days?

  John Corben : The infamous Blur. You know, the ends doesn't always justify the means.

  Lois Lane : You might want to stick with your night job, detective. Graffiti's not exactly the Red-Blue Blur's style.

  John Corben : You're right. It never used to be, back when the guy was happy pulling off a few modest saves, but then suddenly there was no red or blue. It was just the Blur. Now he feels he needs to leave his mark all over the city to, I don't know, to prove something.

• John Corben : Good find?

  Lois Lane : Look, on a scale of one to ten of illegal things I've done, this doesn't even hit the radar. Okay, that didn't exactly come out right. All I'm saying is you and your big boys in blue have bigger fish to fry than this little guppy.

• Lois Lane : There are laws about stalking people. You should know.

  John Corben : Hmm. I'm not a cop.

  Lois Lane : Detective, whatever. You guys are so touchy.

  John Corben : I don't work for the force. You jumped to that conclusion yourself, which I hear you do. A lot.

  Lois Lane : Who the hell are you, then?

  John Corben : I'm a field reporter. I spent the last few years in Afghanistan. Hopefully, that gave me enough training to be your desk mate.

  Lois Lane : Don't bet on it. And don't get comfortable in that chair. Clark's coming back.

  John Corben : Really? I heard he was visiting family indefinitely.

  Lois Lane : Indefinitely? No. The guy never takes any time off. I'm sure he's just cashing in on some overdue vacation time.

  John Corben : Oh. Supposedly you've been fired.

  Lois Lane : Minor technicality.
