Smallville2001

Clark Kent:
What was he like? My father.

Raya:
Brave... strong... with the biggest heart of anyone I've ever known.

Clark Kent:
To be honest, that's not the Jor-El I've imagined.

Raya:
He was determined to save us. I remember helping him build your ship. He was so careful, planning every detail, down to your baby blanket. I wish that he could see you now.

Clark Kent:
I haven't been the best son.

Raya:
Your father was hard on himself, too. He felt guilty that he couldn't save Krypton. His only redemption was sending you to save Earth.

Clark Kent:
Save it from what?

Raya:
Extinction. Your civilization is going to destroy itself, just like Krypton. You should know this, it was part of your training.

Clark Kent:
I haven't started my training. The Fortress is damaged. Jor-El tried to warn me, but I didn't listen. I mean, how could I trust someone who brought so much pain in my life?

Raya:
Pain is part of anyone's journey, Kal-El. You can't escape it. You must accept your destiny.
