Death of a Superhero

Lois: …That I am a reporter is something of public record. Tell me something that only Superman could know!

Clark: I know… that we were more than friends. You were engaged to marry Clark Kent. Kent… loved you very much. He trusted you completely, even with the secrets of his double life.

Lois: Then you are—

Clark: I am… I am sorry. I grieve for your loss, Miss Lane. As I told you, things have changed. I have changed. Kent is gone. There is only Superman now.

Lois: Wait—Don’t go! Dear God in heaven… if he’s lying, someone learned that Clark was Superman. And if he’s telling the truth, I’ve lost Clark… All over again.
