LOIS: What's that supposed to mean?!
CLARK: Nothing.I was paying you a compliment.
LOIS: No you weren't.You were implying that if I wasn't single I wouldn't have this problem.

Daily Planet has standing policy that they don’t pay for information. How does that track with Lois paying for Bobby Bigmouths food?
Episode date based on information shown on screen: June 20th, 1994. This means the Kerth awards would be in May -> This timeline doesn’t track with the aborted wedding and Daily Planet reopening.
Kyle Griffin was released May 12th, 1994. Spent five years in St. Quention. Is now out for about four months. Was busted because of Lois writing an expose on his being part of illegal weapons trading in third world countries (he designed the high tech weapons that were sold). It was the first big story of Lois. Timeline consistency: Lois started at the Planet after college in the summer of 1989. Claude stole a big story from her and got a Kerth for it. Kyle spent about five years in prison. How could Lois write the expose to match that timeline?
