Lois must be going crazy by now.
If he had learned anything since Trask had brought him here, it was that he was just as volatile and crazy as his father.
Wait, shouln't taking a man like Clark Kent prisoner have clued him into this fact before he showed up?
Jenson lightly touched S on the back. The man did not stir. For one brief moment, Jenson panicked. Had S died while he'd been gathering together his supplies and medical instruments?
Wouldn't surpsie me, except there are a few more parts of this series left.
But eventually, the man pushed himself up, turned, and sat, leaning against the wall.
At least Jenson thinks of S as a person.
And yet, there was still a wealth of intelligence and a spark of determination hidden deeply within those familiar brown orbs.
Clark is more determined and stronger than I thought if he still has any resistence left.
S rolled shook his head again. "Not S. Not anymore. Clark."
"All right then. Clark. Let me take a look at you."
Reader:
he accepts Clark's name.
Lois: You are crazy. We need to get Clark out of prison. No celebrating.
Lois: No dieing on me Clark.
He wanted to help. He really did.
I am unconvinced he has helped at all. Clark could not live with it if he did what Trask wants.
"Lois? Could I see you in my office a moment?"
I am surprised she is functioning this well.
Lois had loved every second of the leisurely flight. She hadn't feared the fact that she had been so far off the ground.
This Lois is exactly the friend Clark needs. Of course Lois is usually such.
But, Lois, you haven't produced a page-one article - or any article, for that matter - since Clark disappeared. I'm getting letters asking if you were fired. Other members of the Planet are wondering why you're allowed to stay on staff."
Her partner was kidnapped in front of her. I really do not see any other action that makes sense than letting her deal with it.
"And you're sure that he was...taken?" Ellen asked, not looking up from her task of cleaning out the turkey innards.
I can see why Lis does not like her mother.
"I'm not saying that he...staged it or anything, mind you. But, well, how well do you ever really know a person? I mean, look at the lengths your father went to in order to cover up his affairs and the fact that he wanted out of our marriage."
If I was Lois I would just leave at this point, even if they are in her apartment.
"Please, Miss Lane, open up. I need to speak with you." There was a weighty pause. The voice lowered, so that Lois had to strain her ears to hear it. "I have information for you. It's about Clark."
Has Jenson showed up to give her a clue?
Cameron took his anger out on me. You see, I was the last person to see S...
He is not earning points by refering to Clark in such a way.
"One of my jobs under the reign of Cameron was to monitor the alien's
He is not doing good at making Lois trust him.
"I've seen liars before. Jenson was telling me the truth. Clark, just hold on for me a little while longer," she whispered to the empty air around her. "I'm coming. And I'm bringing Metropolis' finest with me. Trask will either be in handcuffs or a body bag by the morning."
Yeah, she is ready for the rescue.
