Goodbye, my son. Our hopes and dreams travel with you.
Lara Lor-Van He will be an outcast. They'll kill him.
How? He'll be a god to them.
[Zod arrives as Jor-El and Lara are about to launch their son into space]
I know you stole the Codex, Jor-El. Surrender it and I'll let you live.
This is a second chance for all of Krypton, not just the bloodlines you deem worthy.
What have you done?
We've had a child, Zod. A boy child. Krypton's first natural birth in centuries, and he will be free, free to forge his own destiny.
Heresy! Destroy it!
[Zod attempts to destroy the launch, but is stopped by Jor-El and they engage each other in combat. Lara is nearly complete with the launch sequence. As Jor-El has Zod temporarily restrained he begins to plead with Lara]
Lara, listen to me, the Codex is Krypton's future. Abort the launch!
[Lara continues the launch sequence and sends her son into space]
NOOOOOOO! [Zod stabs and kills Jor-El. Lara runs over to his fallen body and mourns him] Your son, Lara, where have you sent him?
