It's a bit short, don't know why.

Fanfic / Plot bunnies:
*sigh* I probably should separate the plot from the dust on my Illusions-bunny.

Favorite scene:
I think actually the Cat stuff. I blame it on the above statement. Sorry that there's not more at this time.

Quotes:
PERRY: Jimmy, this is a newspaper, not a check-out-rag. The queen’s peccadilloes after a few too many sherries is not my idea of a good one.

PERRY: Perry White never says anything he doesn’t mean.

LOIS: I like being surprised, as long as I know about it in advance.

Details:
Arthur Chow is mentioned again. Jimmy recognizes he’s richer than Lex Luthor. Cat confirms he is second richest in the world.

Lois’s desk still has the plant with the “Lois water me” sign on it.

Lois adjusts the lamp shade during her discussion with Clark about her being a control freak. Which brings up the question: she is OCD about her food and random lamp shades on her table, but not about doing backups.

Lois wants to know all the secrets.

Why does Clark destroy the TV instead of switching it off?

Clark pulls a super-magic trick on Lois.

-Cat looks completely different dressed up with her hair in an updo.
-I'm with Lois... I hate magic too.
-Jimmy mentions going to Tahiti. From my vague recollections, wasn't Tahiti the hot spot for vacations in the '90's? It's almost never mentioned now.
-The voice that 'programs' Superman is a computerized voice scrambler so how does Constance activate Superman's hypnotized state? Lois tried on Perry but it didn't work because I'm presuming its keyed to Jimmy's voice. So how does Constance's voice trigger Superman?


Favourite quote "...from the desk of Cat Chow."
Favourite scene: The last one where Clark surprises Lois with flowers. Is that the first time we see him buy flowers for her?

My note say 'yes'.
