Erica Durance: Lois Lane
Quotes
-
Lois Lane : I was looking for Carter Hall.
Dr. Fate : He's not here.
Lois Lane : Apparently, he was part of a group of masked mystery men that were railroaded out of business. I'm guessing you were one of them.
Dr. Fate : I see your fate, Lois Lane. You are the one he will need. He is the one you will need.
Lois Lane : What?
Dr. Fate : The savior. The one who will heal us all. The sentient power.
Lois Lane : [he shuts the door in her face] I wonder if he does horoscopes.
-
Lois Lane : It's not every day that you get an exclusive with a helmet head that can tell you your fate.
Clark Kent : So... he told you your fate?
Lois Lane : Huh? Yeah, he was just... babbling about how I'd be there for him and he'd be there for me. It just... sounded like a Valentine's Day card.
Clark Kent : Who's the "him"?
Lois Lane : It's ridiculous. Uh, I quote, uh, "savior" slash "sentient power".
Clark Kent : Do you believe in fate, Lois?
Lois Lane : Only the kind you make happen.
-
Lois Lane : Careful, Lois. This is the part where the doomed girl runs into the guy with the hockey mask.
-
Tess Mercer : Mud wrestling again, Lois?
Lois Lane : Tess Mercer. What brings the big boss all the way downtown to the little newspaper that could? I thought the Daily Planet was slipping off your priority list.
Tess Mercer : Print is dead.
Lois Lane : So is privacy.
-
Lois Lane : Clark Kent. And to think I was actually looking forward to breakfast with the Daily Planet's mild-mannered no-show.
-
Lois Lane : Front page, Clark.
Clark Kent : Hey, congratulations.
Lois Lane : It's hard to believe that a group of underdogs can be swept under the rug like that.
Clark Kent : Well, at least thanks to you, the world now knows who these heroes are. Hopefully, we'll be seeing more of them.
Lois Lane : You know, the byline could have read "Lois Lane and Clark Kent."
Clark Kent : Next time.
-
Amanda Waller : Those are classified.
Lois Lane : I was wondering how they got here.
Amanda Waller : They were left for you, Ms. Lane.
Lois Lane : Who are you?
Amanda Waller : If I'm going to give you a front-page story, does it matter?
Lois Lane : Okay, then. Why me?
Amanda Waller : I've read your work. You pull more skeletons out of closets than the organization I work for have hidden. You embrace the truth.
Lois Lane : And the truth will set you free. Your point is?
Amanda Waller : [offering a cell phone, which Lois tentatively takes] I'll be in touch.
-
Clark Kent : Late night? I heard you were working on some kind of murder case.
Lois Lane : Cases. Plural. And I've got my hands on a case full of classified intel. Like, double super-classified.
Clark Kent : Mind if I take a look?
Lois Lane : Usually, we're a great team, but you already decided to go it solo today, so I just followed suit.
Clark Kent : I'm sorry that I was out, Lois, but maybe I can assist you. We could be like Woodward and Bernstein. Clark and Lois.
Lois Lane : Lois and Clark.
Clark Kent : If it's so double super-classified, how did you get on the case, Lois?
Lois Lane : I was handpicked by an anonymous source.
-
Lois Lane : The two people that were murdered had criminal records. But it's all fabricated. Clark, they were vigilantes like the Blur. Part of an underground group of honest to goodness spandex-sporting superheroes. I met one of them; he was wearing a gold-plated helmet and a cape. Which actually looked pretty good.
Clark Kent : And that's all you know?
Lois Lane : No. Their leader, a man named Carter Hall, almost killed one of their enemies. Someone named the Icicle. He had a son. And here's the weird thing. He was plucked from juvie by someone very high up. Sealed records. Now, I'm not supposed to know this... but there were other bad guys that these underground heroes fought, and every single one of them was released from prison secretly. They and their records, MIA.
Clark Kent : Someone's collecting them.
