The Judge and Madge acted like Lois and Clark were out to harm the little girl. What is the big deal with meeting them in the judge's chamber with a police officer?
As they entered the room, one of the women from child welfare stood and approached Clark. She held out her hands to try to take Carrie.
Seeing this Carrie screamed, “No! No, I wanna stay with Mr. Clark!” She grabbed onto him as if her life depended on it and buried her head in his shoulder.
Lois stepped between the worker and Clark and asked, “What is it going to hurt for us to hold her? Isn’t it bad enough that she has lost her parents?’
The worker tried to push her way past Lois, but the judge stopped her by saying, “Madge, let her stay with the Kents.”
Madge gave the judge a questioning look and at the judge’s nod returned to her seat.
Nice of Lois to shake the woman's hand after all that, but this line was perfect.
Lois said, “Don’t be too surprised if you see an article or two about how the system abuses the children they are supposedly protecting. My husband was also an orphan. Fortunately he was adopted by a very loving family. That is what we hope to provide for Carrie.”
Lois Olive Lane? LOL? Right, we're on it Chief!
