Ben Lockwood : The President of the United States made me a Cabinet member.
Lena Luthor : The president works for Lex.

Ben Lockwood : [really Brainy] It is I, Secretary...
[clearing his throat]
Ben Lockwood : Secretary Benjamin Lockwood. I have captured the alien outlaw Dreamer. Open the gate and allow us entry.
Dreamer : [the guard signals to open the gate] It's working.
Ben Lockwood : Obviously.
[their guard dog begins barking]
Ben Lockwood : Dog. How many times do I have to tell you, we cannot keep enslaving these animals for our own, uh, nefarious purposes.
Guard 1 : Sorry, sir, but we have to check.

Brainiac-5 : Our odds of being captured just went up.

Ben Lockwood : Otis, what's he planning?
Otis Graves : Fun time in Kaznia. Paper tigers, man. Paper tigers.

Ben Lockwood : Yeah. In the old safehouse.
Otis Graves : Yeah. Lex didn't want me to use it, but... I had to. I'm sentimental, you know? My sister, she loved this spot.
