Nigel felt like he had been dropped between Scalia and Carbides. No matter how he answered, depending on how Luthor took it, he could be wrong. He decided to be truthful, "I think not."
These conversations between Lex and Nigel were always so much more interesting than him talking to Asabi, Mrs. Cox, his dog or himself.
"No prob, CK. That was the subject of the class I took at MUT with Prof. Laderman." Jimmy glanced over at Lois. "I still can't believe that he did that."
"You're not the only one, Jimmy. Lois is convinced of his innocence and I am beginning to agree with her."

Reed looked past Lois at Eugene and the computer display. She was only distracted for a second, but Lois saw her chance and took it. Lashing out with her right leg, she kicked Detective Reed's right wrist knocking the gun from her grasp and sending it flying.
The gun flew through the air and second nature caused Clark to reach out and snag it.
Why did Lois do that? She and Clark could have been arrested for helping Eugene resist arrest. Good thing Clark caught the gun.
Now let's see if we are offered any further insights to Det. Reed.
