It looks like some strange woman was in the office. She vamped some reporter named Claude.
Mrs. Cox.
Derek didn’t know and Claude wouldn’t own up to anything, but Derek said he didn’t like Claude’s attitude. It was like had a bug in his bonnet.”
“Yeah, he didn’t like being aced out on the story. I wouldn’t put it past him to try to get back at us. Oh well, looks like the fat is in the fire now. At least all he had was our undercover names.
Phew. Right. I forgot about Charlie and Linda. Hee-hee, wouldn't it be funny if Linda King showed up as the newest reporter for the Met Star about now? Hee- hee.
Lana and Pete liked what they saw, so as a wedding gift to them Clark and Lois paid the security deposit and six months rental for them.
Either it was a dump of an apartment or LnC have LOTS of money squirelled away.
They sent them off on their honeymoon telling them not to hurry. Since they were going to live with them until the apartment was ready they just needed to be in Metropolis the day before Pete had to report to work.
No point in having them move into the Kents' honeymoon apartment anytime soon.
It had been so long since Lois had been actively engaged locally as a reporter that there were few of her peers that could actually recognized her. To all intents and purposes she had simply vanished from the public eye. A lot of her peers thought that she had given up investigative journalism in favor of writing novels.
Did she have much of a name for herself careerwise before going to the Congo? I mean, I know she was Perry's little darling, but with her fellow reporters?
“I don’t think it’s very wise to send up that shuttle. There is a bomb on board set to detonate shortly after liftoff.”
Great. Now they're going to think Charlie set the bomb.
Clark used his x-ray vision combined with his telescopic vision to observe Lex Luthor. What he saw was very gratifying. Lex was extremely angry and was taking his anger out on a slightly older somewhat portly man with a van Dyke beard.
Did canon Lois ever learn that Clark suspected Luthor of the Prometheus bomb? I'm just surprised at how much of canon dimension that he learned about during his couple of short days with Lois.
“She’s good enough looking. I wouldn’t kick her out of bed, if you know what I mean.”
“You got it, Mr. K. I’ll get it right down there.”
“Thanks, Jack. I appreciate it.”
I like Jack's twist on Jimmy's CK nickname.
“Anyhow, Chief, here’s the idea. I have some jewelry that looks like it’s straight out of the English Crown jewels. We need to plant some articles about a visiting Royal Princess staying in Metropolis, maybe in the Lexor Hotel. I’ll provide the jewels and the gown if the Planet will spring for the hotel room for a few nights. We need to make it look good.”
They never go for the simple disguse, do they? They better get a big story or they'll have to cash in those jewels to pay the DP back for the fail attempt.
