My moment of today is from a episode I watched recently...Supermann--I think that's the name. While I enjoy Clark and Lois's banter, I was kind of caught in a what the heck moment at the point where they're researching Lisa Rockford's fingerprints. They come upon a database in Russian, so Clark starts reading.
Lois then says, very nicely in an admiring way, are there any languages you don't speak?
Then Clark responds in a VERY unnecessarily rude way with: well, sometimes I don't understand you.
She laughs. And I think both his comment and her response make my eyebrows go through the roof. Clark isn't catty. They hadn't been fighting. There was no reason for him to make a rude remark to a purely nice aside from her. And that she didn't call him on it? Impossible. Lois Lane would have definitely challenged him or at least shot back some retort. I just have to wonder sometimes if a writer was mad at his wife and felt the need to get his kicks in there!
And could we possibly discuss some of the wardrobe choices? Why would an investigative reporter ever be caught dead wearing a straight skirt that went all the way down to the ankles and was so tight she had to take tiny steps to get anywhere. Yeah, fat lot of good that would be chasing down a source. Not to mention, who can do any kind of self-defence in that sort of get-up?
Yes, it's the little things that kill me.
