folc4evernaday: Thanks so much! I got that image of Lois and Clark when thinking how Lois who has been comfortably married to Clark for six decades would act. So glad it worked for you!
Queen: Thanks so much for commenting!
Lynn: Thanks so much! I reworded the beginning, so hopefully it's less confusing now. I appreciate you telling me. I almost made the character look like Uncle Mike, but decided that Mike and Mary Frances went together better. And Lois seeing an Uncle Mike doppelgänger would have been painful.
As far as a sequel, well I think my muse may not yet be done with this plot bunny, although I don't see myself rewriting the show in one long epic. More likely, it would be a scene or two at a time for a series of shorter stories, and likely skipping some episodes completely.
Thank you all for your kind, thoughtful comments and for reading.
