Chloe Sullivan: Clark, what really happened out there?
Clark Kent: I should have listened to you, Chloe. You tried to warn me. I had my hand around that guy's throat. And I thought if I just kept squeezing the life out of him, then it would make everything right again.
Chloe Sullivan: God, Clark. But you didn't?
Clark Kent: No.
Chloe Sullivan: What made you stop?
Clark Kent: My dad's voice. This is gonna sound weird, but I... I could hear him. He was the one who always kept me from going over the edge when I was too close.
Chloe Sullivan: It's too bad Andrea didn't step back in time. I think Metropolis could really use someone like her right now. Do you think you could ever do what she did? Play the mild-mannered reporter by day and a crime fighter by night?
Clark Kent: Honestly, I'm kind of hoping I can find a way to not have to hide who I really am.
