Gil Bellows credited as playing...
Maxwell Lord
- Maxwell Lord: They have all witnessed The Blur. Pieces of his identity have been locked within their minds. They simply need to be severed.
- Ray Sacks: And you're extracting their memories with this whole "Jedi mind control" thing. Very impressive interrogation skills. Listen, Mr. Lord, I'm no friend of The Blur, but why are *you* after him?
- Maxwell Lord: You are aware, Sacks, that meta-humans exist on the planet.
- Ray Sacks: I assume this Checkmate agency wants to use them to protect and serve?
- Maxwell Lord: That's the White Queen's plan. Waller barks orders from behind a desk. I work in the real world, a world that needs the rule of law. Anything outside the natural order is... unpredictable.
- Maxwell Lord: [trying to break into Lois' memories] You're fighting it. You know him, don't you?
- Clark Kent: [whooshing in] Get away from her.
- Maxwell Lord: Ah. I see we're past formal introductions.
- [Clark advances menacingly]
- Maxwell Lord: Stop. One wrong step and I'll eviscerate every last thought in her head.
- Clark Kent: You're using their memories to learn my identity. Let them go. They don't know who I am.
- Maxwell Lord: True. They've only seen glimpses of your face, nothing more. You've been careful. Except for this one. Even unconscious, her mind protects memories of you.
- Clark Kent: Maybe she doesn't have any.
- Maxwell Lord: Or maybe the connection between you two is stronger. Stronger than the fear that binds you with the others. Stronger... because of love.
