"But Mrs. Church, it’s incomprehensible. I’m sure Superman was hit; he's probably unable to perform any rescues, and his friends are covering for him with this story..."
"Tsk, tsk, you failed... There's still a superhero in Metropolis preventing me from conducting my business in peace..."—she turned to a man in a suit beside her—"Freddy, can you take care of these two losers? I don’t like being made a fool of..."
Urgh! Mindy Church. My least favorite villian!
"Yes, yes, Dad."
"You’re not trying to pull one over on your parents, are you?"—Martha added.
Clark squirmed uncomfortably and sighed, running a hand through his hair.
"No, it’s just that the rays also duplicated Lois..."
LOL! I often wonder why Clark thinks he can hide anything from Jonathan and Martha?
The officer stepped in front of her:
"Who authorized you to enter the perimeter?"
"You just did!"—Lois asserted.
"Absolutely not! So you stay on this side and wait. My boss asked me to maintain a crime scene free of pests, and that includes the press."
I love this kind of banter! It really makes the story sing.
No doubt they are disappointed about losing the lead. But no doubt Lois, Lois and Clark will figure something out!
