Dylan Walsh: General Sam Lane

Quotes 

• Clark Kent : Hey, Sam.

  General Sam Lane : Harris was spotted in Metropolis.

  Clark Kent : In Metropolis? Are you sure?

  General Sam Lane : He's fast, hard to track. Why? Something I need to know about?

  Clark Kent : Uh, that's where the boys' football game is tomorrow.

  General Sam Lane : You stay with the boys. I'll have my guys on site. We have a plan to put this monster back in his cage.

  Clark Kent : He's not a monster, Sam. He's a kid. Nobody's helping him. He's scared.

  General Sam Lane : Helping? He attacked my grandson. No, I underestimated him once. He broke out of a state-of-the-art facility. His speed rivals yours. No telling what damage he can do. I don't have time to worry about feelings. I need to incapacitate a threat. That's what I'm gonna do.

• General Sam Lane : I don't know what you're upset about. The girl's safe and on her way home. The subject's back in custody. Let's take this as a win.

  Superman : His name is Tag.

  General Sam Lane : I wish I had your trust in people, I really do.

  Superman : So do I.

  General Sam Lane : You put me in a bad position tonight.

  Superman : You know, I thought about all the ways you might try to stop that boy. Never occurred to me you would actually use live rounds, let alone ones fitted with kryptonite.

  General Sam Lane : My job is to protect the American people by any means necessary.

  Superman : And now I know.
