Early 2nd season, Lois & Clark are someplace that blows up.
Lois caught sight of a Police surveillance unit filming everyone who entered the building. She pointed it out to Clark, who without telling her, slid down his glasses and looked at the officers. Henderson, Wolf and several others that they know well.
In they go and while inside Clark hears something and barely has time to grab Lois and shoot through the roof before the whole building is engulfed in the flames.
He parks Lois nearby and returns as Superman to help. He saves several people and the fire department EMTS arrive. He is not thinking fast enough and does not think to tell the Police that he saved Lane and Kent first.
In the statement to the LNN crew on the scene Wolfe states that news reporters Lois & Kent were at the center of the blast and are clearly dead.
Intergang is believed to be behind the explosion but there is no proof. After all is said and done only two things are certain.
- The building is gone.
- Lane & Kent are dead.
So now Clark has to deal with a Lois Lane who has just found out he is Superman and she is officially dead.
To regain her life all Lois has to do is tell the world how she survived. That Clark Kent is Superman.
