Nice part, interesting.
Retire. Hmm, I think he will get away with it for a second or two.
Clark just can't NOT help. It isn't in him. In the AltVerse Lana was on him to not help. It didn't stop him.
Lois will again become so obsessed with Superman that her relationship with Clark will be forgotten.
Clark will decide that it is for the best, that he can't give Lois what she really deserves.
Shades of Superman II! Clark making decisions for Lois without consulting Lois.
If Clark would have left Lois's memory alone in a few days they would have been talking.
OK Lois would have been ranting and Clark listening.
"What you're dumping me because you think we can't have sex? Because it might not be safe for me? That mister is an excuse not a reason! Tell me Kent, just how great do you think the sex is for the wife of a quadriplegic? And where do you get off making decisions for me?" And on and on for quite some time.
