Due to comments in this feedback folder and some comments from my wonderful beta readers, I have edited this chapter to explain (but not excuse) Clark's rude comment to Lois in comparing her to Lana. I've also added some scenes concerning Nigel which I hope will flesh out his character and his motivations.

And once again, I thank all of those who have read, and I doubly thank all of those who have taken the time to leave comments on this monster of a story.
