First off, they are NOT contemplating killing Thomas to save Clark's identity. WHY wouldn't a farm hand and a reporter hook up? Love has no bounds.
Martha:I was just saying we need to not blow the whole cover to Thomas. He does not associate much with people in town, so its not like he will tell Maisie anything.
Jonathan:"Love has no bounds" whatever. I guess a farm hand and a reporter might marry, but people tend to marry in their class, and reporters things they are above farm hands. Anyway, the big question is how a wandering farm hand in the back country around Smallville met Metropolis's #1 reporter.
Clark:Maybe if Maisie really presses you, tell her I got a job as a bar tender in Metropolis under the alias of Charles King.
