Standing over Clark, Trask smiled that malevolent smile and said, "You think you're better than humans, don't you? Flying around, oh so perfect and superior. Well, those days are over now, aren't they?"

Clark gritted out, "You're wrong!"

There was a gloating tone to his voice as Trask said, "No, as it happens, you are wrong. It's over now. I have won and this little piece of home is going to be the death of you, Superman."

I always thought Trask was a certifiable nut case. His cruel behavior and taunts towards Clark only proves it.
