It was interesting, she thought, how he had come to her for help in spite of the fact that he was a very good investigative journalist in his own right. It meant that Clark really did respect her intelligence and her skills as a reporter. It was nice to know that...
Somehow, she had to show Clark that he didn't have to be afraid that she would expose his secret to anyone for any reason. If she could do that, maybe he would tell her the truth of his own accord.

And I love the typical Lois and Clark behavior - each of them obsessing about the same thing, but for completely different reasons.
More soon! I can't wait until the secret is out!
