As I checked the post ‘I’ll Make A Man Out Of You’ from Mulan was playing Good thing it’s the next song I hear! I can totally see that working though! Remember how Lois mentions that Jimmy taught her to hotwire a car (I think that was it) in the Pilot? She was undercover as a man busting a car theft ring. Jimmy could totally have his Li Shang moment!

Me: (Driving around peacefully, running errands, listening to the local classic rock station.) My muse: "Oh, I can use this! Ever feel like fleshing out Cat Grant into an actual human being?" Me: "Uh, no? Not really? Besides, I still have to go to the grocery store." My muse: "That's nice. Here's the story, hope you're taking notes." Bad Reputation
