Maxwell Lord: So it's true -- the Red Queen does exist.

Season Nine, Charade

Tess: The Red Queen, I presume.

Martha: Don't turn around. Slowly set the disk on the floor and slide it back to me.

Tess: Sorry I sent your mind-reader packing.

Martha: Don't be. I'm not a fan of his tactics, but he got the job done.

Tess: You meant for me to get away. How did you know I'd come here?

Martha: You're predictable.

Tess: You may be really good at staying one step ahead of Checkmate, but you don't know the first thing about me.

Martha: You say you're saving the planet, but you really only care about yourself. You figured out Maxwell's charade because you know in your heart that Oliver's declaration of love was a lie. You can't comprehend what it means to truly protect someone you love. And stay away from Clark Kent. If you're not careful, you'll end up on the wrong side of the coming apocalypse.

Season Nine, Hostage

---

Chloe: You know, who would have thought there would have been a day when heroes need this much protection?

Martha: It's nothing new. A long time ago, Jonathan and I realized Clark wasn't just our blessing. Someday we'd have to share him with the world. Protecting him suddenly became a much bigger responsibility.

Chloe: That explains why the Red Queen eventually entered the game.

Martha: I've been watching you, too. I know you took over where Waller left off, but why did you leave Clark's side in the first place?

Chloe: Same reason you did. It turns out there's a very fine line between being protective and being overprotective.

Martha: We both needed to leave for Clark to stand up on his own. But maybe we stepped away too far.

Chloe: Mrs. Kent, I never stopped watching his back.

Martha: Clark needs you as much as the world needs him. You're part of this family, Chloe.

Chloe: You know, growing up, I never really had much of a mother figure to look up to -- until I met you. You really taught me what it meant to take care of the people that I love.

Martha: And as Clark's oldest friend, I can't think of anyone better to watch over him.

Season Ten, Beacon
