Good morning, everyone!
I'm glad to see you realized I wasn't killing Perry...

Actually, Cris, I didn't think it was Perry. I had posted the following just above your message:

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that this is Nigel. Lex has reasoned that Nigel was less than 100% loyal, and therefore sent Mrs. Cox to dispose of him.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
However, since that was buried in the middle of a paragraph that started with speculation about Perry being the body, maybe you missed that... So I'll be brave once again and throw it out there for everyone to see. If I'm right and it is Nigel, I'm going to look incredibly intelligent, right?
Sorry about that, Kathy. I had read your post; I?d even began answering it in my repply but, for some reason, decided to erase it (and left a word as I did, right below my name
)
You were right as was Tank about Nigel ebing the shot one. For some reason, it seemed obvious to me and never ocurred that you could actually think of Perry instead...

Your Luthor is *very* devilishly cunning: one can really believe why he is the most powerful man in Metropolis.
I'm really gald you like my description of Luthor; it's great to know that you get the same image of him I have in my head.

The name of this story is very suspicious, but this will have a happy ending, won't it?????
DEfine Happy ending...

I was really surprised at first when Lex didn't break the news of Clark's secret identity to Lois himself - I would have thought he would want to see the look on her face. But his reasoning to Nigel did make sense, and I can see it working that way.
I actually considered having Lex break the news himself. But, at a point, I thought that Lois ahd had enough of CK and LEx throwing accusations at each other and not proving any. I thought that with her S1 attitude, she would have been fed up by now, so not listening to Lex seem the right choice. Glad the exlpanation Luthor offers is convincing.
Labrat said:
I just figured it was one of these evil author things where you wanted us to think it was Perry but it would turn out to be someone entirely different.
Not at all. Promise (though I doubt you're believing it...
Tank said:
but I still cringe everytime I see Lois beind so clueless about Lex
Haven't we all thought that at some point? For an award-winning investigative journalist, she really was blind... but wouldn't that apply to the story of the century as well (RE: her partner flying in tights in his spare time)?
The only thing we, the gentle readers can hope for is that Nigel managed to tell Perry some good stuff before he bit the big one.
You'll find out in part 6...
Merry, glad youre liking this too.
I'll be back with part 6 in a couple of days.
Once again, thanks, everyone.
Cris
