I'll have to rewatch it. I personally love Star (and I could see her being able to be the catalyst on helping Lois understand what needs to happen.) I didn't actually remember Star being a part of it.

CLARK: No. I'm just worried I'm a jinx.
JONATHAN: A jinx?
CLARK: Yeah. Let's face it, ever since she's known me, Lois's been kidnapped, frozen, pushed off buildings, almost stabbed, poisoned, buried alive and who knows what else, and it's all because of me.
-"Contact" (You're not her jinx, you're her blessing.)
