What a switch to see Lois being overprotective of Clark and cutting him out of the action "for his own good." It's usually the other way around.
But either way, it's just plain depressing... And poor Clark probably feels like he is being kicked when he is already down.
I'm guessing that will probably be miserable through all of part three. (Lois will be, too, but I don't have as much sympathy for her -- after all, their entire separation is her fault. She could tell him everything, including the existence of the green-K, and they could work together as a TEAM.) So although I am looking forward to part three, it is part four for which I am especially eager.
Joy,
Lynn
