This time it's an actual four-parter, Virginia. Almost got to be five parts...
Lex Luthor sat in his secret office, not the fake one he let everyone see, the real office.
/imagines office with simple, efficient furniture, a comfortable chair and a high-end espresso machine in the corner/
It had been a good plan: Menken kidnaps Lois, Lex saves Lois and kills Menken, and makes Superman look like a fool, Lois gratefully jumps into Lex’s bed.
Umm…the bedding-part of the plan was probably likely to develop a few kinks.
Where had it all gone wrong?
His eyes narrowed. “Clark Kent.”
He fast forwarded ten minutes and noticed what he had missed before. Lois Lane’s bedroom light went on for a minute as she climbed out of bed and slipped on her shoes.
So, she had left in the middle of the night and returned home in the morning. He may be old enough to be Lois’s father, but he knew what that meant.

Stakeout!
“Don’t expect that I’m going to come over again and crawl into b…” Lois started
He flung his arm out across his desk, knocking his lamp, pen holder, and papers onto the floor, causing his dog to scurry under the table.
/recommends anger management therapy/ Say, does his ex-wife do those, too?
Did Superman know that Lois was now bedding her co-worker?
He was there at the time.
The one time Superman had been late, maybe punishing his girl for stepping out on him, she got shot.
Oops?
If Lois would cheat on Superman with Kent, it opened up the possibility she would with someone else as well.
Lex would need to rid Kent as his rival for Lois to continue his plans to castrate Superman, and to do that he’d need information on the man.
Oh boy. Say, can Superman return the favor and remove Lex’s fun equipment?
