EW: So Cat di not realize she was acting as a cover for Chow's other girlfriend.
Nope, poor Cat wasn't in on the ruse.
Wait, why would I do that? Did Clark tell Cat that Lois was hiding Lauderman? I forgot about that. Hmm, no the question is will Clark blame Cat?
Why would you do that? Um... because according to you Cat and Herb are the root to all evil not perpetrated by Lex Luthor? Did Cat know about Lauderman? No, not officially but Clark and Lois had discussed it at work, albeit carefully, but who knows who could have overheard them. No, Cat didn't know about Lauderman and, personally, didn't care to know. Clark has no reason to blame Cat; she has enough of her own troubles at the moment.
EW: She hasn't changed it since before she knew... well, since the previous summer actually.
JOHN: Actually I am surprised it survived her breakup with Superman in this continuity. That would have really been an expected change.
Lois has been too busy to think up new passwords, although for about three hours or so before eating pasta with Clark, she did consider 'KillSuperman' but then she realized he was suffering just as much as she was, it just wasn't meant to be.
<<just joking about the password suggestion BTW>>
EW: It's a mixture of Lois not being computer savvy from Madame Ex (although, she seemed to do okay in FlyHard), and a bit of Clark having 2 years of extra computer knowledge and a photographic memory. I knew about Acrostics before I saw Madame Ex, too, but I didn't know what they were called. This is the explanation I use to Lois not knowing the official term.
JOHN: Hmm, maybe that works. It still seemed odd to me that she would not know the term. I don't know, Lois seemed to come off not knowing much about anything in that episode. I guess her saving Superman near the end was somewhat of a redemption, but even then it did not call on any extra Lois spunk. Now if she had then been the one to stop Ariana's escape by quick action instead of an unreasonably fast recovered Superman, I could have lived with it.
Perhaps someone needs to re-write Madame Ex with Clark still suffering from Green K poisoning and Lois chasing Ari and the double down the street. (It wasn't like they were going REALLY fast.) Maybe Jimmy could have caught a photo of Ari and the double leaving the building and then tried to flag them down, only to have Lois run out a few minutes later. Having gotten shots of both, they could prove that Lois has been set up. SM recovered way too fast in that episode for my liking, especially since he had BEEN SHOT and the Green K had been in his body! It took him 3 days to recover from GGGoH!
JOHN: I hope they can link it to Lex.
EW: Wouldn't that by nice and tidy? [I'm not saying a word]
JOHN: Hmm, if this story did nice and tidy it would not be so long.
So true. I do promise some nice and tidy things in the future.
Clark:Not after I swore secrecy on the lives of our grandchildren.
Lois:What makes you think we will have grandchildren.
Clark:Lois, you are the one who said "our".
Lois: [blushing] O, I forgot I said it that way.
At least in canon they did it totally in the open, so that was entirely possible. I really think they were way too open with lots of what they said in canon.
One of the reasons I poke fun at them for doing so, in my stories.
