Nice part. BTW I'm on Maddie's side, Clark is being a doormat. The 4:00 AM 3:00 AM rule was lame to begin with and now he's letting himself be kicked out of his room.
I hope this somehow reaches Lois's ear, I can just see her ripping a hole in Steve.
And we can already see where the relationship with Maddie is going,
“Wait,” Maddie said, her eyes alight and I had a feeling she knew of Steve’s mother. “Your mom is Yvonne Michaelson?”
Knowing that will cause her to view Steve in a different light and likely that will last long enough for Steve to take advantage of her new mindset to get laid and for Clark to walk in on them in the middle.

Well drat and Drat cubed. I was hopeful it was some underhanded backdoor way to
- Get Lois to defend Clark
- make Clark less trusting
- Draw Lois & Clark closer
I did wonder a little – how much more would they have appreciated it if I had actually used my powers to help put out the fires
In the series we see Clark doing things really fast. Including reading. I'd encourage you to use that so Clark can speed thru some extra reading and learn more about how to help.
BTW if you really want to have fun assume that when Clark superspeeds his aura is being used to alter the rate at which time flows within it's field. Clark could learn the trick of
sleeping while at at superspeed and thus catch up on his sleep.
