love the conversation between lois and perry! nice twist that instead of fighting clark's stubbornness with pure hot headedness on lois's part, she's matured enough to be patient with him...
love the character vivienne!
would've love to see perry having a moment with clark as well... though it's a nice balance, with clark sharing with his mom, and now lois with her old mentor. hmmm, wonder what he thinks of jimmy quitting...
