Your wife must have a hard time sitting still, huh? That’ll change. But that instinct will come in handy down the road. Now don’t go scaring him. — Superman and Lois 3x05 “Head On”

Mom, what is this? Whoa, you guys went through your mom’s things? You lied to us about how bad this is. Boys– These are end-of-life documents. Mom, this is your will. You wrote goodbye letters, Mom. I know. And I know how this looks. And I know that this is really scary. But this is all a normal thing you would do, just case things go bad. Things are already bad. We hear you getting sick. We see you losing your hair, not eating, not drinking, weak, but you never talk to us about anything. And when we try to get help from your mom about what is going on, you get mad at us? — Superman and Lois 3x07 “Forever and Always”

I’m sorry. It’s okay. Come here. You were right. I’m really sick. And we’ve been trying to hide it from you and pretend like everything’s fine. But you said no more secrets. We didn’t mean for it to be a secret. We just didn’t want you guys worrying about something that may never happen. You can’t know that for sure. Jonathan– It’s true. This kind of cancer is really bad. Okay, then why not use technology from the fortress? Yeah, there might be something there that can help you. Because if we use it to help your mom, it wouldn’t be fair to keep it from anyone else. And sharing Kryptonian technology here, the risk to the greater good is just far too high. What if the chemo’s not enough? Then we’re all just gonna have to accept that. — Superman and Lois 3x07 “Forever and Always”

He’s overreacting. Not if you shot him. But babe, don’t worry, it’s fine. How is this fine? You’re shooting our son with lasers. It wasn’t me. It was the program, and besides, I’m just trying to prepare him for the worst. Okay, so then, it’s just different when it comes to me? I’m just saying, you walked out of therapy, and you said it wasn’t for you. and last night, you walked out of our bedroom, refusing to believe that I can die. What is going on with you? Okay, look, our first day at Hob’s Bay, I heard about this feeling that some people with cancer experience this pull to surrender when things get bad, like it’d just be easier to give in, and then in the support group, the therapist was talking about telling her husband to let go, and– Okay, so you’re worried I’m just gonna give up? No, of course not. Well, that’s basically what you implied. No, but–I mean, now you’re writing a will and acting like you might not make it? Because I might not. I’m not you. You don’t get sick. Bullets literally bounce off of you, but everyone else on Earth, all the rest of us, could drop dead any moment of any day, and you not acknowledging that that’s how it is isn’t helping me.  — Superman and Lois 3x06 “Of Sound Mind”  

You’re right to be mad, but we had just gotten this break in the Mannheim case. What? Do you really think I care about Bruno Mannheim right now? You skipped chemo, Lois. It was an honest mistake. I legitimately just forgot. Okay, well, you can’t just forget. Look, babe, the boys woke up at the crack of dawn to make you breakfast. I didn’t ask for that.  I know. I know. But you didn’t have to. They’re worried about you, just like your dad’s worried about you. Everyone in this family is trying to help you get through this, but none of that matters if you don’t get your treatments. — Superman and Lois 3x03 “In cold blood”
