Wow again.
Clark's in
real trouble.
Tears filled her eyes. He’d lied to her.
And he’d left her.
The two things she thought Clark Kent would never do.
Given Lois' past - which Clark knows enough about to know how fragile she would be in a relationship like this one - he should have anticipated this would happen, even if Superman is now Lois' dedicated bodyguard. I can accept Clark not telling her the secret when they were just friends, but
not here, not now. There is no way he should have kept on without revealing himself to her (despite the fact that she's already seen him fully revealed, at least in one sense).
The latest possible point to tell her would have been the morning after their first night together, but even that's putting the cart before the horse. I'm on Clark's side in most situations when it comes to "the big secret," but this time he's really stepped over the line. Nearly anything Lois says or does now will be something he's earned. Even if he swoops down and saves her life once again and catches the murderer red-handed, it may not tip the scales back the way they were.
Even so, I'm eager to see how this turns out.
