Why does Clark say that they only reason that Lana’s parents were on the plane was because of him?
Because.
Screams "sequel", doesn't it? I promise I'll explain that along with the other things that aren't in this story. Lancaster and Capetown and anything else you want to know about.
Come on, Lois. Think about Batman. You just met someone pretending to be him who of course really was him.
Shhhh! you're going to spoil the surprise!!!
I think I agree about Luthor not giving Lois a compliment.
Okies, then. I'll go fix that a little later today.
Give me a couple days and a little bit of wrapping paper and I'll see if I can make a Christmas present out of it.
Cute. You have a nice way with words...
awww! thank you! that's so sweet of you to say.
I've got a candle here marked "wishes for a job" - I'll light it for you as well.

I hope you find something soon!
