Lex: Lana! What happened? Did Nell put you out on the street?

Lana: I decided to join the workforce.

Lex: Good for you. I’m sure you’ll be employee of the month in no time.

Lex: Closes the file he was studying.

Lana: Right now, I hold the record for most dishes broken in a single day.

Lex: Better bring my cappuccino in a Styrofoam cup, then.

Lana: Well, if it isn’t Smallville’s latest football star. Lex looks up in the background.

Clark: Let’s see how I do tomorrow night. Hey, have you seen Trevor tonight?

Lana: no, he hasn’t been in.

Clark: How are things going here?

Lana: Today is one of those days I just want to scream.

Clark: Well, for what it’s worth, I think it’s cool you got this job.

Lana: For what it’s worth, I’m sorry I’m not gonna get to see you play tomorrow. New girl gets the worst shifts. So, can I get you anything?

Lex and Lana Season 1 Episode 2

Lex:  Your form’s good, but his gait’s off. You might want to check your shoes. Lex Luthor. I’m a friend of your aunt’s.

Lana:   Sneaking up like that, you’re lucky you didn’t get kicked.

Lex:  You must be Lana. It’s a pleasure to finally meet you.

Lana:  We’ve already met.

Lex:  I seriously doubt I’d forget meeting you.

Lana:  You were a little preoccupied at the time.

Lex:  I get the feeling I didn’t make a great first impression.

Lana:  When I was 10, I went to Metropolis for a riding competition. Your father invited us to stay over. My aunt said you had an indoor pool. When I went to check it out, I found you and a girl skinny-dipping. I think you were teaching her the breast stroke.

Lex:  That was you? Wow. You’re all grown up now.   Very impressive.

Lana:  It’s tacky, but it makes my aunt happy.

Lex:  That’s an unusual necklace.

Lana:  Thanks. It’s very special to me.

Lex:  How come you’re not wearing it?

Lana:  I lent it to my boyfriend.

Lex:  Lucky guy. What’s his name?

Lana:  Whitney Fordman.

Lex:  The kid that Kent saved today? Just came back from seeing him. He’s lucky Clark was there.

Lana:  I know the feeling.

Lex:  Kind of makes you wonder if you’re with the right guy. One chucks footballs, the other helps save lives.

Lana:  For someone who just moved into town, you’ve got a lot of opinions.

Lex:  You just seem more interesting than that. While you’re nursing your boyfriend back to health, ask him what he was doing before the big game.

Lana:  He was with me.

Lex:  Are you sure?  Tell your aunt I stopped by.
