Y'know, Lex, I'm starting to think that I underestimated you. You seem so in control, even when annoyed by tiny little reporter who just got lucky and figured out some of your tricks (but she doesn't know the extent of your power, Lexie-dear). Admirable, isn't it?
And so now you're going to get us rid of Lois Lane... so that your faithful friend Kaethel can spend the rest of her life with the gorgeous, sweet, wonderfully vulnerable Clark Kent!
Oooooh, I love you, Lex!!
(grinning, ducking and running FAST!
