but I had hoped that this part was full of other yummy gooey stuff people wouldn't notice. <D’oh!> I should have known.

Well… when you answer enough parts, you tend to memorize the length of the scrollbar and notice when it’s just half as long as it used to be. Plus, I finished reading the part on a single commute, so… pretty big neon signs there.
LOIS: Also, it’s like Clark giving me a half-sized box of chocolates.
quote:Also, after her brief stint of cavorting with a bum in the last part, she’s now back to marrying the 3rd richest guy who blew up the Planet?
So, it can't mean Lois and Clark's relationship?
CLARK: Yep, how did Michael know I was a morning person?
LOIS: Morning, schmorning. Phish-aw. The best time of day is night. The newsroom is finally quiet and people have left their offices so it's easier to...um... investigate.
HENDERSON: Is that what you call B&E these days?
LOIS: No, I never called it B&E.
I don't think I've seen that movie since the theatres. [Embarrassed]
quote:Awww…just like Clark does /appreciates the irony/
LOIS: /grumble/ I don’t *need* protection.
CLARK: /scoffs/ And *I* do?
Yes. Otherwise, Lois ends up pregnant.
FATES:
ER: Never mind.
LOIS: I don't *sell* myself! /nudges Clark/ Go ahead, Clark. Tell him how I gave it to you for free!
CLARK: Say, what?
So, skank instead of hooker?
LOIS: Volunteer caretaker!
quote:So, pretty complete confession, huh?
FATHER CARLOS: Ten Hail Mary’s.
For saying "Hell"?
No, for fessing up to blowing up the Planet.
So, Lex won't rescue her himself, thereby becoming the hero.
No, I figured he’d let the cops do the shooting and then walk in after them. That way, He won’t have Lois see him kill all those bad men, traumatizing her further by this image if violence.
LOIS:

The least he could have done was vivisect them for what they did to me. But no, he wouldn’t get his hands dirty.
My guess, those kidnappers / robbers would have to be pretty stupid to remain in town.
They would only get paid in cash at the end of their assignment?
quote:Oh boy. She’s finally gone bonkers.
His line about leaving the Daily Planet was just enough like canon Clark's that it brought the flashback / psychic moment forward in her mind.
I know. Bonkers is still funnier.
LOIS: See. Not bonkers. Just really in touch with my previous self.
CLAKR: Hello, Dr. Deter? I have heard you are a wonderful psychiatric specialist…
An elderly British gentleman. /one with bad timing and a wicked sense of 'fun'/
or
/one with wicked timing and a good sense of fun/ [oh, brother]
Could be either of them.
Not really, hence the :rolleyes:
You’re always welcome!

Michael
