Quotes

Lara : Visiting me at home is one thing Kara, but sneaking through the last remaining portal to follow me here was far too dangerous!
Kara : I had to get out of Kandor. The war is been getting worst and I can hear the mines being bombed day and night.
Lara : Does Zor-El know you're here?
Kara : You know my father never let me out of Kandor alone, but he's been spending so much time in the lab, that it's easy to sneak away.
[pause]
Kara : Why are you here?
Lara : I... I wanted to see where my son may grow up.
Kara : What? But you don't have... Wait, you're pregnant? I'm so happy for you I know how much you and Jor-El wanted this!
Lara : He's our miracle baby.
Kara : I don't understand, why would he grow up here?
Lara : Kara... Krypton may never see the end of this war. Jor-El's BrainInteractiveConstruct may very well save us, but I won't risk my son's life on that chance.
Kara : Then I'll be there and I'll protect him.
Lara : As much as this pains me, it may be my only choice. I can't let the destiny of my child be dictated by the fate of our planet.
Kara : And aren't you worried about your son growing up with humans? When they're so... primitive.
Lara : Jor-El visited Earth many years ago and he chose this family, because he was impressed by their capacity of love.
Kara : If it's more impressive then the way they live...
Lara : It's one of many structures Kara, it's not the residence. Come, let me show you.

Kara : What if we get caught, Lara? Are this people here right now?
Lara : No, they're attending a spiritual celebration called Church. It's one of their traditions.
Kara : It sure smells a lot better in here.
Lara : I believe they're cooking..."Sunday Roast". It is so peaceful here compared to Krypton. It's a true home.
Kara : I don't know... It's kinda... small and cleathered.
[Kara lifts an object]
Lara : Be careful Kara, we must leave no trace of our visit. I don't wanna influence them in any way. They're destined to raise my child, it's important they feel secure.
Kara : Have you given your baby a name yet?
Lara : No. With everything happening on Krypton Jor-El and I have yet to discuss one.
Kara : He'll be so far from home... Our Sun will be nothing but a distant star... Maybe you could name him Kal-El. That way when he looks at the sky, he can think of us.
Lara : Kal-El... Oh, that's a beautiful name.
