- Clark Kent: [Lex has a gun pointed at him] Lex, it's me. Clark. I need to talk to you.
- Lex Luthor: After I drove my Porsche into the river and you fished me out, I asked your dad if there was any way I could repay him. What did he say that we always joked about?
- Clark Kent: Lex, what is this? A pop quiz?
- Lex Luthor: Answer the question!
- Clark Kent: He told you to drive slower.
- Lex Luthor: [lowers gun] Welcome back.
- Clark Kent: So you know what happened.
- Lex Luthor: Well, it was a bit of a giveaway when you asked for $57 million.
- Clark Kent: Lex, I have a favor to ask.
- Lex Luthor: Name it.
- Clark Kent: Well, it has to do with your father's cell mate. He's actually the one that helped me through this whole ordeal. He saved my life. He swears he was framed.
- Lex Luthor: Clark, a lot of convicts swear they've been framed.
- Clark Kent: But I believe him. And I promised him that if I got out, I'd do everything in my power to help him. And Lex, you're the only one that I know with the resources who might be able to help.
- Lex Luthor: Well, if I can manage to put a guilty man in prison, maybe I can get an innocent man out.
- Clark Kent: [Lionel Luthor in Clark's body after flirting with Chloe and getting her about to kiss him] Don't you wish. Miss Sullivan.
