Quotes 

• [the office elevator opens and Lois and Clark are kissing. They walk out holding hands and everyone stops and stares at them] 

  Lois Lane : Okay so this skirt doesn't go with this blouse, it's not that bad.

  Jimmy Olsen : You guys haven't seen this morning's National Inquisitor have you?

  Lois Lane : That supermarket rag, why would we?

  Jimmy Olsen : Or The Dirt Digger?

  Clark Kent : Of course not Jimmy. What's going on?

  [Jimmy holds up the photos of Lois kissing Superman] 

  Lois Lane : Oh my God, Clark.

  Clark Kent : Lois...

  Lois Lane : That's me.

  Clark Kent : And Superman.

  [Lois and Clark stare at each other] 

  Jimmy Olsen : Guys let me be the first to say that I don't believe it for a second, alright. It's obviously a fake, the photograph's fake, it's unequivocally bogus. Although it's pretty good work, I mean I've never seen anything quite as good, the matte lines all match...

  Lois Lane : Jimmy...

  Jimmy Olsen : Sorry. On your team 100%.

  Perry White : Lois, Clark, in my office.

  Lois Lane : Chief, first of all I want you to know...

  Perry White : Of course I don't believe a word of it Lois, I know you'd never do anything like that to Clark, I've never seen two people so in love. This is just pure tabloid trash, it's that simple.

  Clark Kent : Thanks Chief.

  Perry White : Now that said this thing's already blown up pretty big. Now The Daily Planet has yet to take an official position but I can't sit on my hands much longer. The, uh, fellows upstairs are breathing down my neck to clean up this mess. So, uh, what do you want me to do? What do we print?

• Jimmy Olsen : Wow, look at this turn out.

  Lois Lane : Well it's not every day somebody from Metropolis wins the International Peace Prize.

  Jimmy Olsen : I can't believe Superman hasn't won it before now.

  Lois Lane : I guess there was some question about whether or not an extra terrestrial was actually eligible.

  Jimmy Olsen : Alien or not it's about time.

• Jimmy Olsen : Lois, you know those composite labs I've been checking out?

  Lois Lane : Yeah.

  Jimmy Olsen : Well here's one. Hanks Photo Lab on Third Street. Somebody told me to look into 'em because they're not real legitimate but they do good work, you know fake passports and stuff.

  Lois Lane : Jimmy were running out of time.

  Jimmy Olsen : Hank's used to be Dirt Digger's biggest client so I did some checking. Turns out that a huge payment was made to them the day just before the photographs were published.

  Lois Lane : So this photo could be a fake?

  Jimmy Olsen : Well yeah but you knew that already.

  Lois Lane : Uh, yeah, no of course I knew it. I, I, I just didn't know if you did, know it I, I mean, if you knew that it was a fake.

  Jimmy Olsen : [Looks confused]  Right.

  Lois Lane : [Nervous laugh]  Right.
