If I can borrow an idea from a very old Muppet Show episode...

Lois: So the whole thing with Miranda was a bust. Yes, she did create a custom pheremone, but it turns out that it only affects very wimpy nerds. Turns them into raving mad lunatics. I figure, no harm; no foul.

Clark: Waaahaaahaaahaaa! Wo-man! Aaahaaa! Dee-ba-dee-ba-dee-ba, that's all, folcs!
