Glad that Lois had the wisdom to see through to Clark's insecurities, rather than having her own insecurities eat away at what could be the start of a great relationship. In an unusual, for Lois, flash of inspiration, she realizes Clark is more scared than she is.
This part was just too short, but at least, it was all B-plot driven. More soon!
