Yvonne, this part was very well written.

I don't know very much about substance addiction, but I know what it's like to go on a diet and have that "other" person have a piece of cake or chocolate bar. I know what the arguments in my head feel like and how I feel afterwards. So what Clark is going through, his withdrawal from red kryptonite, seems very real.

Having been a folc for many years, I also understand how badly each Clark needs his own Lois, so once again, the depth of the hole in his life without his own Lois also seems very real.

So now, you have to get Clark to talk to George and admit how he feels about Lois.
