Hi, Virginia!
Poor Lois! Poor Clark! Poor Jonathan! Poor Martha!
<nods> Poor everyone involved!
What Lois is going to do to Trask once she finds him: [steam roll]
Trask, you better *pray* Lois doesn't get to you before anyone else does.
Clark isn't going to want to be Superman after this experience.
Which should be fun. Does his fear win out or his intense desire to help?
Lois must be most distraught if Clark and the Kents are still missing 10 days later. I'm surprised she hasn't kidnapped the head of the FBI to help them find Clark sooner. I hope she finds a way to rescue him soon. I don't know how though. Maybe Jenson?
Lois is a wreck. And that's putting it mildly. But Clark isn't missing 10 days...yet. He was taken on the 4th and this chapter ends on the 11th.

Lois may have to bust some heads.
Poor Clark, exposed to Kryptonite repeatedly for all this time. How does Trask expect him to "fly" anywhere while being exposed to K? How does he expect Clark to accomplish the task that Trask wants him to complete if a K bullet is traveling with him? Wouldn't the K of the K bullet affect Clark's ability to fly across country?
Trask is hoping all the torture, K exposure, and seeing his parents beaten will break Clark. Also, the gun with the K bullet could be carried in a lead lined holder. Assuming he makes a bullet. He could just as easily fashion another K necklace like his own. Remember, Trask has *no idea* how fast Clark is now. He doesn't realize Clark could snatch the objects away before the lead containers could be opened.
Happy Thanksgiving! Don't keep us waiting too long!
Thanks! Happy Thanksgiving to you too!

Look for the next installment on Sunday or Monday. Most likely Sunday.
