Aw, great story! When the bad guys interrupted them I wanted to yell "Just 5 more minutes!!" Very well-played build up. It was nice to see Lois being the rational girl she should be. And I liked how Clark pointed out that she rushed to judge both Lex *and* Superman.

My one point of confusion is that I'm wondering why there were no witnesses besides the bad guys when Clark was shot... This may just be that I don't remember the episode well (which I don't--been so long), but I'm assuming they were taken to a separate room to mess with the computer?

At any rate--sequel needed! Preferably in another folder... love
