Quotes 

• Mala : I am Mala, Superman's second in command. I offer you my promise that to this world that I will follow in Superman's tradition of just rule with a fair hand.

  Lois Lane : I thought I was career minded.

• Mala : [after Superman rejects her advances]  You'd spurn me? The last woman of your own kind?

  [Superman glances over at Lois, which causes Mala to glare at her] 

  Mala : Oh, I see. You prefer the touch of these inferior creatures.

  Lois Lane : Hey, who're you calling infer-

  [Mala grabs her by the throat] 

  Mala : You've seen your last yellow sunrise, woman.

  Superman : Mala!

  [just as Mala is about to pummel Lois, Superman grabs her wrist and flings her over to the building across the way, sending her crashing through the railing. She floats back up and flies back down toward Superman. He dodges and grabs her, putting her into a headlock] 

  Mala : I will not go back! I'll destroy every being on this planet first!

  Superman : [to Lois]  You okay?

  Lois Lane : [holding her throat; nods]  Mm-hmm.

  [Superman flies off holding Mala] 

  Lois Lane : Whoa. Talk about high maintenance.

• Mala : I misunderstood Superman's role on Earth. I... I don't want to rule your planet. I only want to help people, as Superman himself has sworn to do.

  Lois Lane : Yeah, right. And I'm Wonder Woman.

  Mala : Excuse me?

  Lois Lane : Nothing.
