Superman: They meet someone from stars and their first instinct is to fire at will.
Martha Kent: They love you.
Superman: They don't know me, and I am afraid that when they do...
Martha Kent: Maybe you are what they need. If they know about you maybe they will see things differently.
Jonathan Kent: Or maybe the government will lock him up, or worse.
Superman: At some point they are going to ask me "Where I am from and why I was sent here?" And I won't have the answers. And in the meantime, one way or the other Lois is going to publish her expose.
Jonathan Kent: You know what they are going to say, what we've always said: the world is dangerous and unforgiving. If you are different, special, you have two options: you can either...
Superman: Either meet it head-on and accept the consequences or you can keep you head down and accept the consequences. There is no wrong choice, but...
Martha Kent: But you have to make one.
