No comments at all? I finally had to go register for the boards to rectify this situation. :-)

First, Clark and Rebecca. I've been in those unbalanced relationships, and while admittedly they can occasionally turn out well, they're usually a recipe for disaster... and Rebecca is just scary sometimes! I think she's got a lot of healing to do before she can be in a long-term relationship, and I don't think she realizes it. I'm rooting for Clark to run far away, but he's too nice a guy to just strand her. Very intriguing.

Lois and Lex, on the other hand... I can't even figure out what might go wrong with their relationship. :-) He's almost perfect. Hm... maybe he'll turn out to be prejudiced about having a super-powered girlfriend? It doesn't seem likely. (Or there seems to be a remote possibility that he actually is evil... what with Alex Winfield coming up in Perry's investigations.) At this point, I wouldn't really blame Lois if she picked Lex.

What I really like to speculate about, though, is whether Asabi is going to go behind Lex's back and bring up his suspicions regarding Nigel with Lois. Lex *did* say Asabi's loyalty to Lois might now rival his loyalty to Lex, didn't he?

And poor Cat. All the Daily Planeteers seem to be too close to her to suspect her of being tied to the bombing. But maybe Lois will try, as a friend, to get her to open up and share what's wrong, and the beans will all come spilling out.

Three quarters of the parts are posted... someone's got to start unraveling the mystery soon!
