1. Why does Clark say "Thank you, I appreciate it" When Lois tells him he wouldn't be her first choice for bodyguard in Witness?
I always saw it as him being ironic. He puts so much effort into making himself the 'mild-mannered', unflashy, unheroic figure so that no one notices he's the superheroic, Superman. To make sure no one sees him as extra couragous or muscular or whatever and puts two and two together.
So when Lois tells him he wouldn't be her first choice as a bodyguard - in other words that he isn't the first person to spring to her mind when she thinks of a tough guy - well, I think Clark feels it's kind of a compliment in a way to how good he's been with the deception.
And, yes, Mike is supposed to be a guardian angel. Don't get me started. :rolleyes:
