Pushing the asteroid off its path -- a much more realistic option! And I really liked Clark's thought process, that if he's going to end up dead either way, the only option is to save everyone else first. He's so scared (poor Clark!) yet it's really the only answer. The mark of a true hero, willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.

I wanted to shake Lois when she got mad at him (even if it was perfectly in character) and was glad when she realized what she'd done -- how he'd confessed his fear and she'd sent him away -- just a minute too late. If she doesn't find him to apologize, it's going to be a heavy burden to bear, that she rejected him in his final hours.

Looking forward to part 2!
