Wow! Two posts in one day. Thank you.

I had to catch up with FDK...
I needed a way for the substitute Lois to recognize Ching when he suddenly appeared in her apartment to suggest she become a concubine.
Ooooooh!
You're right. Nunnery it is.
When Lois decided to go to the other dimension causes the curse to allow Clark to return, therefore, allows Nor to send his spies to Earth... and everything that happened in canon can now happen. While cursed Lois is in her dimension, Clark cannot return to her (that's my interpretation of the curse).
Great. *Now* I have a headache. Give me time-travel any day of the week, or next week? Last week? Huh...? But curses, or actually self-fulfilling prophetic curses with a strong recursive element...
