Clark Kent:
[at his father's grave, Jonathan's spirit watches Clark] I never wanted to say goodbye.

Jonathan Kent:
Then don't.

Clark Kent:
I thought I had it all figured out - how to move on... how to bury my guilt, my insecurities, my questions. I'm so close. I know who I'll become. I've seen it. Lois thinks I should let her go. Mom says I should hold on to you.

Jonathan Kent:
You don't need to hold on to someone, Clark, if they're already in your heart.

Clark Kent:
I just keep leaning on you, on Jor-El. I need to stand alone. It's better that way.

Jonathan Kent:
You mean it's easier that way.

Clark Kent:
It's just I've missed you so much.

Jonathan Kent:
Then let me be there for you, Clark. A-and don't - don't push your mother away. We're part of you.

Clark Kent:
It's like I'm on a cliff standing on the edge, and where I'm looking is beyond where you've been before, it's beyond than Jor-El has ever been before. And much as I value everything you've given me, I need to go beyond where either of you can guide me anymore, to be the hero the world needs me to be.
