-->'''Oliver''': I took the ring after I took Lex Luthor's life.
-->'''Clark''': You're responsible for the explosion.
-->'''Oliver''': You know, Lex may have been your friend a lifetime ago, Clark, but eventually, he would have killed you. That meteor rock ring is proof of that.
-->'''Clark''': Why were you wearing it? In case I don't agree with the next murder you plan?
-->'''Oliver''': You know what? This is great, really, really great. You don't have the guts to take out that murdering bastard. I come in, I mop up your mess, and what do you do? [[MoreHeroThanThou You get all self-righteous on me]]. [[IDidWhatIHadToDo We do what we have to do, Clark!]] And deep down in your heart, you know that that was my only choice 'cause you're gonna do the exact same thing when you find Davis Bloome. And all I can do is hope that the guilt doesn't weigh you down as much as it does me.
-->'''Clark''': Thank you, Oliver. But I'll take it from here.
-->'''Oliver''': All right, look, [[HeadbuttingHeroes we don't see eye-to-eye on everything]]; that's no secret, Clark. We're still on the same side.
-->'''Clark''': No, we're not.
-->'''Oliver''': I see. You're not gonna use that thing to kill him, are you?
-->'''Clark''': I'm gonna use it to [[EnemyWithout split Davis from the beast]] and [[SealedEvilInACan send Doomsday to the Phantom Zone alone]].
-->'''Oliver''': Well, I guess I wasn't the only one hiding something, then.
-->'''Clark''': I didn't have a choice, Oliver. [[BatmanGambit I had to tell you what you wanted to hear so you'd get me the Black Kryptonite.]]
-->'''Oliver''': How many more lives are you willing to sacrifice if your plan fails this time, Clark?! Put your ego aside. You have a responsibility.
-->'''Clark''': My responsibility is to do what's right. Like it or not, [[TheParagon we stand for something. We set an example for others to follow]]. And if we don't, then we're no better than the people we fight.
