Clark: Raya.
Raya: Hello, Kal-El.
Clark: I was afraid I’d never see you again. I’m sorry, I didn’t want to leave you in the Phantom Zone.
Raya: You had no choice. It’s okay, Kal-El. And if it wasn’t for you, I would have never escaped. I would have never seen all this. It’s more beautiful than the world your father described.
Clark: How did you find me?
Raya: Your father Jor-El told me about the family he had chosen for you, about Smallville. It must have been hard growing up here by yourself.
Clark: I had my parents. I had my friends.
Raya: But no one who really understood you.
Clark: You mean, what was it like to grow up with such a big secret?
Raya: And the amazing rush with racing trains, knowing nothing can hurt you.
Clark: I used to try to pretend not to notice, but sometimes I would catch my Dad watching me when I picked something up, that it was impossible for him to move. He (my Dad) wanted so much to know what that felt like.
Raya: But he never could.
Clark: No matter how hard I try to fit in…everyday I am reminded I’m not one of them.
Raya: You are not alone anymore. I’m here.
Jimmy: Lex is working with the Egyptians
Raya: You cheated.
Clark: I couldn’t let a rookie catch me in the last county.
Raya: Jor-El would have never let you get away with that.
Clark: What was he like? My father Jor-El.
Raya: Brave…Strong…With the biggest heart than anyone I have ever known.
Clark: To be honest, that’s not the Jor-El I imagined.
Raya: He was determined to save us. I remember helping him build your ship. He was so careful, planning every last detail down to your baby blanket. I wish that he could see you now.
Clark: 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 down to save earth.
Clark: 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: I haven’t started my training. Now the Fortress is damaged. Jor-El tried to warn me, but I didn’t listen. How could I trust someone who brought so much pain into my life?
Raya: Pain is part of anyone’s journey, Kal-El. You can’t escape it. You must accept your destiny.
Martha: Raya sounds like an amazing woman.
Clark: I wish you could have met her. She loved this place, this whole world. She barely had enough time to discover it…before she gave her life to protect it.
Martha: It looks like Krypton gave us more than one hero. I am so sorry, Clark.
Clark: When I was with Raya…I didn’t feel alone anymore.
Martha: Clark…
Clark: Mom, I know how much you love me, and how much Dad…but I’ve always felt…different. It’s because I am, and Raya was the first person I’ve ever met who could really understand that. I don’t think I ever really thought about what I’d lost…a family, a whole race of people who were just like me. For the first time, I am ready to stop running…from who I really am…from my destiny.
Martha: You’re training with Jor-El — you want to go.
Clark: But I can’t…not yet…Not until every prisoner that I released from the Phantom Zone is returned…or destroyed.
