I had an idea along the baby clone line. At the end of Vatman Lex would ask Nigel if the other one was safe, we would learn that the other one would be a baby clone of superman that is being carrie by a woman lex is paying. Lois would learn of the baby (but not his true identity until further into the story) as she is made he baby's guardian in Lex's will. Clark is conflicted with wanting to help Lois and the baby being Lex's (as he thinks)
