Mark's father, Nolan, is almost a superman after his humanity has been erased. For the Witrums, who are getting older and aging slowly, human civilization is just a moment in their life course.
For mankind, decades are very long, after life and death parting, joys and sorrows. But for Nolan, this is just a moment. Killing a human is like pinching an ant to death. You don't care about the life or death of the ant.
He will continue to send away the people around him, watch the one he loves grow old and die, and then go to welcome the next generation. This also destined him to be unable to put true love and family affection in front of mankind. Therefore, he regards Mark's mother more as a "pet", because pets have a shorter life span compared to their owners, and they have limited time with their owners.
From Nolan's standpoint, he has always adhered to the mission of the Vitruum people and helped his people occupy the earth. For Mark, he has only experienced 20 years. He lives in human society and can clearly perceive the light of human nature. But I think that as time goes by, Mark will gradually watch the people around him grow old and die. He may also understand his father's situation and mission and gradually become "Vitrull".
In the last episode, Mark's phrase "I will still have you in five hundred years" may have shaken his father. The fond memories with his son made Nolan feel a bit of humanity, so he stopped the killer and flew far away. Of space. Superman regards the earth as a home and has always guarded the earth. Nolan stands on a higher level. He can't see the meaning of protecting the earth. Human civilization is just a moment. Will you fight for an ant?
