Quotes 

• Kyle Cushing : So much for Lois Lane's big expose, huh? Told you she had nothing on Edge.

  Lana Lang Cushing : You seem pretty smug, rooting for an entitled billionaire.

  Kyle Cushing : I just want what's best for this town. Right now, it seems pretty clear to me that that's Morgan Edge bringing jobs in.

  Lana Lang Cushing : So, what? Just ignore the fact that he's a jerk?

  Kyle Cushing : Why is he a jerk, huh? 'Cause he throws a little money around?

  Lana Lang Cushing : You didn't think it was awkward, him cornering me? Asking me about my job? Promising opportunity?

  Kyle Cushing : He was our host. He was just being friendly.

  Lana Lang Cushing : You didn't even ask if I was uncomfortable. I mean, do you care?

  Kyle Cushing : It's not like he was flirting with you. Honey, I was right there.

  Lana Lang Cushing : It's not about you. I was annoyed. He made me uncomfortable, and you didn't even notice. Is that where our marriage is at?

  Kyle Cushing : So, okay, Lana, you-you want me to get in the guy's face because he dared to talk to you?

  Lana Lang Cushing : Oh, god.

  Kyle Cushing : I mean, I could've been a jerk to your boss, too, but then you would've been pissed at that, right? Hey, wait. Lana, that... that came out wrong.

  Lana Lang Cushing : [leaving]  Whatever. I need some air.

• Morgan Edge : I understand you're one of mine. You work at my bank.

  Lana Lang Cushing : Ah, yes. Well, you know, with all due respect, I've been there since before your company acquired the branch.

  Morgan Edge : And do you find the work satisfying?

  Lana Lang Cushing : I got into finance to help people, and lately, it feels like the only people I'm helping are the shareholders.

  Morgan Edge : Banking can be a harsh business and, uh... limiting to someone with your potential. I glanced at your file. Graduated magna cum laude from Stanhope College. Wide variety of clubs, extracurriculars, travel plans. You could've done anything you wanted, and yet you chose to come back here where your options were... somewhat limited.

  Lana Lang Cushing : Smallville's home. I like it here.

  Morgan Edge : Certainly. Perhaps you can find something more worthy of your unique gifts. If you want to make a real impact, I can be a resource. I pride myself in helping people achieve their best selves.
