Great part! Clark's homesickness, the sense that he was searching for something that he had yet to find anywhere in the world, felt very realistic. You've also created an interesting alternate beginning to Lois and Clark's relationship. She's not as antagonistic as she was in the Pilot - I'm wondering if you're going to reveal something in her backstory that changed her initial attitude towards him. It also provides for a more interesting story to read because it's not obvious where you're headed. Hopefully we'll get another bonus part this weekend!
