SO happy to see the conclusion to this one!
He hoped to channel some of her steely nerves when it was time to face the Council.
It's so sweet to see him really leaning on her. I always love when we see that Superman really needs others.
Down here, he was practically helpless. He was hundreds of feet underwater, surrounded by people he couldn’t understand and in a cave he couldn’t navigate
Such an interesting set-up! It really makes me respect deep water a lot more, too, lol.
He chuckled. “Uh… I once lifted a space shuttle into orbit, if that answers your questions.”
I love that this is the gold standard for Superman's abilities - love using the debut here!
The slight tightness that he’d felt in his chest earlier had begun to feel like a low, but consistent burn. He was running out of time down here.
I love the way this bumps up the tension!
“I’ll see you up there, Clark.”
Oh, very sad that she'll be cut off from her home if she goes back up!
He’d only taken a few steps out of the alley, before Lois slammed into him, rooting him in place with a tight hug.
Trust Lois to find him second after his arrival back! Especially after that dinner/car alarm stunt he pulled!
“You’re the worst,” she grumbled, into his jacket.
“I love you, too, Lois.”
“Just like that, huh?” she replied, still understandably skeptical.
Ope... Lying to Lois - he's really taking his life in his hands here!
He chose not to look too closely. If she wanted to find him, she knew how.
This is such a bittersweet ending!
