Episode Quotes

	Season 1 / Episode 12: - Leech Lex Luthor: Listen, I had no right to question your honesty. All I can do is plead temporary insanity and hope we can find a way to put this behind us. Clark Kent: Only temporary?
	Season 1 / Episode 12: - Leech Jonathan Kent: You know what they say: lightning never strikes twice in the same place. Look, my guess is that your powers aren't coming back. Clark Kent: Maybe being normal won't be so bad; I mean it works for you and Mom. Martha Kent: Oh, thanks.
