John: Hey!
/Rubs hands to see what new insights John has for me./
So much for Luthor's claims of trusting her.
Well, I considered adding in a part... hmmm, maybe I still will, so I better not mention it here. This was actually set-up for something else which would be set-up for something else. We'll see. Maybe I'll just by-pass the rest of the set-up and just get to the something else.
Lois is getting into Luthor's office.
Getting there isn't difficult. Staying in there long enough to investigate is the difficult part.
I'm surprised it's so easy to talk directly to Luthor's personal assistant. I would think he would have a few more layers between himself and those answering the phone.
Well, I'm sure Jack wouldn't be patched through. Perry, as editor of Lex's now-controlled Daily Planet, would have more access to Lex's secretary than say someone like Jack or Louie.
MRS. COX: /cough/ Excuse me. But I'm a *Personal* Assistant to Mr. Luthor.
LOIS: Oh, is that what you're calling it nowadays?
She underestimates Perry's persistence.
I'm sure Mrs. Cox didn't get to be Lex's personal assistant just on her good looks, either.
The later sounds like the type of crazy thing Luthor would do.
LEX:

Well, we are a visual sex; LexLabs proved that before LexComp started that new LXPorn website.
Was it even taken with her permission, or was this the disturbing shot that we saw in Vatman?
The photo from Vatman wasn't disturbing. It was a shot of Lois walking down the street. HOW the picture must have been obtained is the only disturbing thing about it. And, yes, it's like that photo, only a different one.
I'm glad she realizes this.
LOIS: /points to trashcan where she threw her rose-colored glasses/
She needs to learn more about Kryptonite. She should ask him about it.
It's on her to-do list.
Lois: It is more fun to kiss him.
See, that's the problem. That one is in permanent marker and she never seems to get past it.
I'm glad they avoided it being ruled a suicide.
Probably due to nudges from Clark Kent.
She needs to trust her gut less. Luthor always hurts people.
How does Lex physically hurt Lois in canon? /The emotional hurt is obvious./
Now she knows that Luthor could make his office a place where Superman could not hear her say the code word.
Good Point.
Sad. I was so hoping she would find the Kryptonite on this day.
Even if she could open the room off of Lex's office, would she be able to open the safe in which he keeps his valuable meteorite samples?
Considering that Betsy is his mistress, this is just sickening.
He's thinking of his future.
She has outwitted Luthor. Although this may not have been wise to let him know of more of her family and friends.
No? He already knows about them.
/Reader dance party!/ we were spared more Luthor scenes.
LEX: I say. That's quiet offending. /shrugs/ Mrs. Cox, cross that young man's name off the wedding guest list.
MRS. COX: /writing/ "Send John an extra invitation."
LOIS: He is quite handsy... I mean, *handy* to have around the bedroom... I mean the house. Yes, *house*.
I didn't realize Lana loved anyone besides herself.
No, that's just Lex.
More people like Lana? This is a nightmare.
Nobody is quite like Lana. Let's just say, she's the worse of the lot.
What do you expect from a fiancé who treats you like a child?
LOIS: Respect! Duh!
Clark: I like the sound of that.
Lois doesn't even know how her complaints of Lex are like twisting the knife she stuck in Clark's gut by rejecting him.
even though you’re twice the man Lex could ever be.”
Twice the man Luthor COULD ever be. As in, if Luthor was honest, kind, sweet, generous, and not evil, Clark would still be twice as good as him.
I think that should be "not fully have forgiven him".
Thanks. Fixed.
I'm sure she would deny wanting children, although how true that would be is another story.
She might if she learns Clark is unable to father a child before he asks her opinion of having children of her own. Kind of a which comes first scenario: the curse or Lois's honest answer.
Lois:Well, what about what happened at the hospital?
CLARK: You said 'nothing happened'.
Is she trying to turn him on, or is she just that into cannoli frosting?
We're past the part where she ate the cream-filled cannoli by this point.
