LOL, Missy beat me to it ... I almost did what she did, but decided to write my comments in an email first so I wouldn't be starting a second thread. <g>
Wendy, this was hilarious! I loved Clark's realization that Lois isn't as "all business" as she's trying to appear, and especially the way that he's taking advantage of the situation -- stripping off his shirt in front of her, indeed! LOL and go Clark!
This, though, was just priceless:
She leaned against the wall outside the fitting rooms, forcing herself to recite the names of past winners of the Kerth investigative journalism award. She’d got back to 1984 when she heard her name being called.
I don't think we've ever seen Lois having to use this method of distraction before in a story -- ROTFL!
This whole section was very fun. My only question is what else is on the agenda for this afternoon ... surely Clark needs more than just two new suits for work? I had expected Lois to insist on at least a few sports jackets to go with those new chinos of his, or other similar outfits appropriate for work. His poor credit card might be begging for mercy, but I don't think Lois has finished her job yet. <g>
Come on, Lois, now that you're in the real mall, let's do some more damage to that credit limit. <g>
Can't wait for part 5!
Kathy (hoping Clark has been studying some hair style magazines so he doesn't come back to the mall with something just as bad as he has now.
)
