Chloe Sullivan
- Clark Kent: Why'd you wait so long to tell me what was going on?
- Chloe Sullivan: Well, let's face it, Clark. My life has been a little less than desirable lately. I mean, with Jimmy and everything.
- Clark Kent: Chloe...
- Chloe Sullivan: And I can't deny there's an appeal to the dynamic duo's weekly adventures.
- Clark Kent: Well, you haven't missed much. Things haven't exactly been smooth between us lately.
- Chloe Sullivan: Look, I know you don't wanna open a can of Kryptonian worms by telling her your secret. But whether you like it or not, Lois Lane is a part of your life now. And considering the nonstop puppy dog eyes you give her, I'm guessing you don't mind much at all.
- [seeing his look]
- Chloe Sullivan: Clark, just because you were burned once doesn't mean that you can't give it a second chance.
- Clark Kent: Are we still talking about me? Or are we talking about you and Jimmy?
- Chloe Sullivan: Touché. Okay. I'm talking about neither of us living in the past. You can never be who you wanna be if you're always looking over your shoulder at what could have been.
- Zatanna Zatara: Rough birthday, huh?
- Chloe Sullivan: You ever seen the napalm scene in Apocalypse Now? More fire, less cake.
- Clark Kent: [the spell that turned Chloe into Lois wears off] Chloe? Wait, but that's...
- Chloe Sullivan: Impossible? Only in your mind. Sometimes you just need a little leap of faith.
- Chloe Sullivan: Ollie, when did this happen? One day I'm on the fast track for my dream career as the intrepid reporter, and then I blink and all of a sudden, I'm this underqualified shrink for meteor-infected kids who will probably wake up to be psycho killers, while Lois and Clark are walking the beach with matching press passes together. Oh, and did I mention that I was actually able to hold on to "happily ever after" for about 2.3 seconds before my marriage imploded?
- Oliver Queen: Is this the part where you belt out the soprano's aria and drive a dagger into your corset?
- Chloe Sullivan: Right. Sorry for the operetta. It's just, I would love to know how she does it.
- Oliver Queen: You know, Chloe, if I didn't know you any better, I'd say there was a hint of jealousy in there.
- Chloe Sullivan: No. It's just... with all these Debbie ups and downers lately, it... I guess it would be really nice to leave it all behind and be back in the bullpen.
- Lois Lane: [giving Chloe a birthday cupcake] Hey! One year closer to the sweet release of death.
- Chloe Sullivan: How wonderfully morbid.
- Oliver Queen: Ready?
- Chloe Sullivan: Ready as you are.
- Oliver Queen: Yeah. Chloe. This will mean leaving your old life as a reporter behind. You sure you wanna say goodbye to that forever?
- Chloe Sullivan: You know, yesterday, I wouldn't have been able to answer that question. But after spending the day at the Daily Planet, I realized... that's someone else's life.
- Oliver Queen: You know, it's interesting, everyone seems to have so much clarity after a dose of the Zatanna dust. Almost makes me wish I had my turn at the magic lamp, too.
- Chloe Sullivan: I'll save you the heel blisters. You already know what you really want. We all do. We just don't listen.
- Oliver Queen: [taking a Bluetooth earpiece] And you're sure this is it?
- Chloe Sullivan: This is where I belong.
- Clark Kent: Peace offering for missing your party.
- Chloe Sullivan: Casualties of being a hero. Not everyone could have punched through Zatanna's whammy and saved the day.
- Clark Kent: I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you for reminding me who I really am.
- Chloe Sullivan: Yeah, I guess rebooting your superhero OS rekindled the Chloe fire. Looks like, uh, hero support isn't just a day job anymore. And for that...
- [taking the bag of food]
- Chloe Sullivan: ...we eat bagels.
- Chloe Sullivan: Do you remember everything?
- Clark Kent: If you're referring to the "just the facts, ma'am" routine...
- [nodding]
- Clark Kent: It did feel as though a weight had been lifted.
- Chloe Sullivan: Hmm. It must have been hard to harness up again.
- Clark Kent: To be honest, a life without responsibility kind of felt empty. I mean, this is who I am, Chloe. Every morning, I wake up with a purpose.
- Chloe Sullivan: Yeah, you're not the only one who saw the world through irony-colored glasses.
- Oliver Queen: You okay?
- Chloe Sullivan: Yeah. Birthdays just make me a little reflective.
- Oliver Queen: What do you say we get you out of your head and into the party, huh? Come on.
- Chloe Sullivan: [entering the party and seeing Lois having a good time] See? Case in point. That was supposed to be my life.
