Oh Mary, this was just so sad!
But these two scenes were beautiful too, in spite of everything:
Lois gasped. "Clark?" She crossed the kitchen to him, reached up and laid a gentle hand on the side of his face. That simple gesture was all that was needed to bring him crashing down on her. Lois struggled to remain standing under his weight as he clung to her.
Finally she let herself sink, with Clark, onto the floor of the kitchen. He buried his face in her neck while she knelt there, cradling him in her arms.
Dr. Klein tentatively reached up and put a hand on her shoulder.
The gesture was too much. She doubled over, tears cascading in full force. After a few moments, she turned towards him, causing her body to twist like a cork-screw. "All---I---wanted," she said from behind her tears, "was to marry the man I loved, and have his children. Was this so wrong?"
Oh, so sad... but beautiful, too.
And most certainly Lara and Bernie are right for each other!
