Thanks for the treat, DC
...
I really enjoyed this part--getting kind of a confirmation of just how
much is going on in Lois and Clark's lives, seeing how they both are trying to deal with it all.
I very much got a kick out of Lois' personal outting of her pregnancy at work. Agree with Groobie--I can totally see Lois doing something like that. She reaches her 'level' of frustration, and out it all comes. And I could just picture the look on everyone's faces in the conference room
. The news needed to come out, though...and really, it's probably good that it came out when it did. Now Cat is off Lois' back, now they don't need to hide (this secret, anyway
).
I hated to see Clark get suspended, but personally, I really enjoyed him standing up for Lois. Ralph deserved it--everything. He's annoying in the show, but this Ralph is ridiculously frustrating (great writing
). He needed to be put in his place. And knowing Clark--how in control he is, how much he thinks through
everything...there's something kinda great to be said of when he forgets all of that patience to defend Lois
.
Lois taking Clark into an empty conference room--just standing there, hugging him--I loved that! That simple reassurance was really touching. And, while in the middle of their rough patch, I'm sure seeing 'Clark' come to her rescue (Clark, not the usual Superman), would make a nice impression on Lois, too
.
Loving it, DC
