Yea! John's still reading! And re-reading. And re-reading...

she called me her boyfriend.
LOIS: That's not what I meant.
CLARK: No take-backs.
Does he know she is not wearing it? I guess he would have taken notice of that.
I'm sure if she was wearing it, he wouldn't have asked the question.
This would be a more powerful line if she dropped the façade of pretending Perry doesn't know.
LOIS: And get myself in trouble with Clark all over again. Not on your life!
PERRY: I know nothing...
At one level I agree with Clark, but it would tip their hand to Luthor.
I did debate whether Lois should say that her attackers stole the ring, but then she could be considered culpable should anything happen to them.
Well, we really hope Lex never learns about that. Good thing he never got to Globe so he does not even know to think that Superman dwells among us.
He lives in the clouds above Mt. Olympus, then?
I am glad she is saying this as she leaves.
True, but the proof is in the action, not the words.
I like him using that name again.
The walls could have ears.
It is when she is acting to further a legal investigation.
Unless she finds anything against Lex, it really isn't a legal investigation, more of an illegal one.
What, did he think Luthor was chincy?
