Recap

Chloe takes Lana bowling for her bachelorette party. As Chloe takes pictures, a worker at the alley, Daniel Kim notices something about odd about Chloe. He comes over and helps Lana bowl, and uses his krypto-mutant ability to secretly move the bowling balls. When he flirts with her, Lana makes it clear she isn’t interested. They’re unaware that a man has brought in a teenager wearing glasses, Tobias Rice. Tobias takes off his glasses and focuses on Daniel. They go outside and abduct Daniel when he leaves the bowling alley. When Chloe comes out, she see them driving away in the van, just missing her...

Episode Quotes
Lana: I know I could've invited a bunch of girls and gone out in a limo for a night on the town but this is so much more special.
Chloe: Yeah, eating chilli fries and knocking down pins...
Lana: With my best friend. Like we used to, one last time.
Chloe: Lana, you're getting married, you're not moving to Antartica.

Chloe: (after taking a photo of her and Lana) Yay! One last picture of Lana Lang before she becomes Lana Luthor.

Chloe: Speaking of which, with the wedding of the century coming up, are you gonna be renting a tux next weekend or a DVD?
Clark: Chloe, what possible reason would I have to watch them get married?
Chloe: Maybe because if you showed up, it would send a message that you're actually moving on. You know, to Lana, to Lex... more importantly to yourself.

Lex: Is it me or do I look like a waiter serving high tea?
Lana: You look like the most handsome groom in the world.
Lex: Good answer.

Lex: About last night, why did Chloe go outside in the middle of your bachelorette party?
Lana: She said she needed some air.
Lex: In the back alley? Why not go out front like everyone else?
Lana: Lex, you seem a little obsessed with the details.
Lex: She's your Maid of Honor and she almost got run over. Lana, I wouldn't want anything to happen to her.

Lex: Think of your wife, Doctor. If we could've tracked these subjects a year ago, she might never have been murdered.
Dr. Bethany: Don't pretend that you care about crime, Mr. Luthor. I know about your meteor rock research.
Lex: I've been victimised by these people just like you have.

Lana: But you and I both know that just because someone has an ability doesn't make them a bad person. Some of these people might use their powers to save people.
Chloe: Okay, I don't know who you're talking about but the meteor freaks that I've met aren't exactly in line to win a Nobel Peace Prize.

Tobias: If he took her, it's not because she's a witness.
Clark: He's trying to lure me in.
Tobias: You? Why would he wanna do that?
Clark: Why would he take Chloe?
Tobias: You guys are such close friends that I thought you knew.
Clark: Knew what?
Tobias: She's meteor-infected, Clark.

Jimmy Olsen: What if she really is gone, Clark? Look, I've never met anyone like Chloe Sullivan and I never will and you know what the most pathetic part is? Is that... is that I was so busy playing it cool that... I never got to tell her how I really truly feel.
Chloe: Well, now's your chance.
Jimmy Olsen: Chloe, you're back!
Chloe: (surprised) Jimmy, easy with the anaconda squeeze!

Lana: Okay, then, you can get the surgery somewhere else where there aren't any string attached. I'll make sure of it.
Tobias: Why would you do that for me?
Lana: Because... you may be putting someone at risk who saves people's lives on practically a daily basis. I can't let that happen.

Lana: Clark was here?
Tobias: You seem surprised.
Lana: Did you tell anyone about him?
Tobias: What's to tell?
Lana: Tobias, it's okay, you can trust me. I know that Clark's infected.
Tobias: You must be talking about a different Clark Kent. Because the Clark I know is the most normal guy I've ever met.

Chloe: The files are barricaded. But in every wall, there's a door somewhere. What's more impenetrable is the way you keep staring at me. Do I have something on my face?
Clark: No. No, I'm... I'm just relieved. We were all really worried about you.
Chloe: Nice try, Clark. Cough it up.
Clark: Cough what up?
Chloe: You know the real reason why I was abducted, don't you? I'm some kind of meteor freak, aren't I?

Chloe: Clark, I need you to x-ray me.
Clark: What?
Chloe: Clark, come on, we're both adults, now just do it!

Chloe: Please, Clark. I don't wanna die. Just get it outta me!
Clark: We have to get you to a hospital.
Chloe: Clark, there's something inside of me, I don't wanna go to the ER and wait for the doctors to figure out what it's gonna do to me! How accurate's your heat vision?
Clark: Chloe, don't even go there.
Chloe: Is it pinpoint accurate?
Clark: Chloe, I'm not gonna burn you!
Chloe: Clark, Daniel Kim is dead! And every single one of those green dots is turning red one by one, I will not be the next red dot!

Jimmy Olsen: What the heck did you do to my girl, Kent?
Chloe: Jimmy, there was a tracking device in me, Clark had a pocket knife.
Clark: We improvised.
Jimmy Olsen: Improvised?!
Chloe: Jimmy, it barely even stung.

Tobias: I always told my father he had too many guns in the house and now I'm glad he did.
Dr. Bethany: Tobias, what good is a gun if you can't see?

Tobias: Lana wanted to do the same thing for me.
Clark: Lana? Why?
Tobias: She had this crazy notion that you were infected by the meteors and she didn't want me to tell anyone else.
Clark: Really? What'd you tell her?
Tobias: The truth. That you're the most normal guy I've ever met.

Lana: Once again, fate intervenes and lives are miraculously saved.
Clark: Yeah. Paramedics say he died of a heart attack. It's bizarre.
Lana: What's really bizarre is this. (holds up a bullet) I fired the gun but the bullet smashed into the cabinet behind me.
Clark: Must've ricocheted.
Lana: Off of something pretty powerful.

Clark: Lana, Tobias told me what you were gonna do for me. I'm not sure where you got this idea that I was meteor-infected... I appreciate you looking out for me. Means a lot.
Lana: You know, even if it were true, even if you were meteor-infected, it wouldn't matter. You'd still be the same Clark Kent.

Lana: Lex, if you were involved in this, you'd tell me, wouldn't you?
Lex: Lana... you're my bride-to-be... the mother of my...
Lana: Tell me the truth, Lex.
Lex: On the soul of my unborn child, I swear... it's the truth.

Chloe: There was a reason they took me... and we both know it's not because I was a witness. Tobias didn't identify you, Clark, because you're not a meteor freak. It was me.
Clark: Chloe, it must've been a mistake.
Chloe: How do you know that?! I mean, I've been exposed to more kryptonite than practically anyone else in this town. It's not that much of a stretch to think that I could've been infected somewhere along the way.
Clark: But you don't have any powers. Do you?
Chloe: No, but that doesn't rule me out. There's a percentage of the Wall of Weird that were latent for years, they didn't exhibit any of their powers until long after their exposure.
Clark: Okay. Alright, let's say it's true. But who's to say you're ever gonna develop any powers at all?
Chloe: All I know is that every single meteor freak I've ever run into has ended up either dead or in Belle Reve. Face it, Clark... I'm a walking timebomb.
Clark: Then consider me your own personal bomb squad.

Lex: (as he watches a video of Chloe) Regarding our most recent subject... keep a close eye on her.
