Oh, I love this episode in lots of little ways and a couple of really big ones! Here's why:

* The sudden interest in a spot on his tie after "What are you saying, Clark? That I'm not a fun person? That I don't know how to have fun?"
* Lois at her desk, preparing to seduce Clark.
* The way she saunters over
* Clark's admiration of her leg on his desk and the fact that he sneaks a couple more peeks as they're talking
* His immediate assumption that she's either ill or working him for a favor
* Perry chilling in his office to Elvis
* Cat's response to "I've always been good with my hands."
* It cracks me up every time when Clark checks the copy room, sees Cat and goes "Oh my..."
* "Minute's up, Clark. Come to mama."
* I adore Rahalia.
* Clark's dogged determination not to take advantage of Lois (but every man has his breaking point)
* Clark rolls his eyes when Lois insists on hugging him before he heads downstairs
* Perry serenading Rahalia (and her husband)
* "You don't know how many times I've thought about this, dreamt about this... well, something like this..."
* Clark pacing and "I can't take it anymore. If you really want me, I'm yours."
* "It's just lucky that stuff wore off in time to stop you from... further humiliating yourself."
* The way she holds the pillow to her chest while they're talking
* "Liar! You are *so* attracted to me!"
* The fact that, even when they're working, Clark opens the car door for her.
* Cat breaking the copier
* Miranda's cat breaking free of its cage
* "Lois Lane, I love you."
* Lois throwing caution to the wind and taking advantage of the situation.
* Lex's "I may throw up."
* Lex literally burning money in his despair
* And that closing banter, which I'm using as my sig line. laugh


Lois: You know, I have a funny feeling that you didn't tell me your biggest secret.

Clark: Well, just to put your little mind at ease, Lois, you're right.
