Clark Kent:
[reading Kryptonian] "We will be with you, Kal-El, for all the days of your life." What does this mean?

Dr. Virgil Swann:
I'm not sure, but one thing I've learned about science is the value of patience.

[Clark notices a picture of outer space on the wall with an area circled]

Clark Kent:
Is that where Krypton is?

Dr. Virgil Swann:
No, that's where Krypton was. I followed the signal's path billions of miles out into space. I was hoping to discover its origin but instead, I found nothing.

Clark Kent:
Planets just don't disappear. What do you think happened to it?

Dr. Virgil Swann:
Oh, it could be any one of a million different scenarios. War, famine, disease. I mean, look at the world around us. Is it really that hard to believe?

Clark Kent:
Well, I can't be the only one. There must be others like me.

Dr. Virgil Swann:
There was only one message.

Clark Kent:
Why me? There must be a reason why I was sent to this planet.

Dr. Virgil Swann:
You won't find the answers by looking to the stars. It's a journey you'll have to take by looking inside yourself. You must write your own destiny... Kal-El.
