As I said before I’ve had an idea where this story would end … hm I’d say I was partially right. I figured Moyne wouldn’t have Lois let take everything which represented his dominating position over his prisoner without doing anything against it. It would have something to do with the ‘prisoner’. I presume that Deller and Bortolotto also began to think of the prisoner as a being with human rights and feelings, therefore they had to die.
I just didn’t think Clark would stay in this awful cell, but the longer I thought about his situation it makes sense. He still doesn’t know what had happened to his parents and I’m sure he fears that when he breaks out his parents will be hurt. I think Trask made it clear during the ‘sessions’ that if he ever were to break out or try to harm the guards Clarks parents would also be suffering from it.
I’m extremely curious about the whereabouts of his parents. Somehow I don’t think they are dead … but I can’t imagine what had happened to them. If they are still alive and they have been set free why didn’t they look for him? If they were, surely Scardino or another involved person would have known about it, wouldn’t they?
It also made me sad to read what had happened to Linda, Lois partner, but it fits with what we know about Lois life before she came to Metropolis.
But there is one thing … Moyne really seems to expect Clark to attack Lois and have his way with her… and killing her after that. Has he lived with the lies for so long that he finally believes them of does this have to do with the surgery they performed on him … but still Clark doesn’t react in an aggressive way. I’m sure he heard the fight from his cell and he knows or suspects that Lois doesn’t propose a threat to him. So he protects her by deflecting the bullet and puts Moyne into the doorway, away from the weapon and away from Lois.
Great cliffhanger, makes me feel like being slowly boiled in oil
:p
