Chloe Sullivan:
Are you still hypnoed?

Clark Kent:
Chloe... how many times can I break someone's heart before it crumbles to pieces?

Chloe Sullivan:
Yeah, but it wasn't your fault. You were hypnotized!

Clark Kent:
Lana wasn't. Chloe, her feelings were real. The look of pain in her eye when she walked in on Simone and I made me realize that my power to hurt Lana is stronger than all my powers put together.

Chloe Sullivan:
But it's not like meeting a girl with hocus pocus jewelry is an everyday occurrence.

Clark Kent:
Yeah, but hurting Lana has become one. And as long as I have to lie to her about who I really am, I'm gonna cause her pain.

Chloe Sullivan:
And as long as you don't set the record straight, she's gonna hate you.

Clark Kent:
Maybe that's not such a bad thing. Maybe it'll help her move on with her life, forget I ever existed, and then find someone who can give her what she deserves.

Chloe Sullivan:
Just... you need to know that if you do this, that's it. Game over, there's no more quarters left. I mean, you're saying goodbye forever. It will crush her, Clark. Please just think long and hard before you end this for good.
