There was a ton of regret in Linda's tone as she replied, "Okay. I'm weak. It doesn't mean I wasn't a good friend. It just means I wasn't as strong as you are."

Lois's reply was still snarky, "Wait a minute. You're backing into an apology by arguing that you stole a story and a guy because you were under the influence of your hormones and because I was your best girlfriend at the time that I should have forgiven you then and not make a big deal about it now?"

Linda thought for a second and said, "Right."

Lois was the first to recover, "You've got to stop them. They're …"

He replied, "I know."

As he left, Linda looked at Lois and asked, "How?"

"Clark must have told him."

Once he was on the roof, Stark opened the case and assembled the sniper rifle that it contained. He had pre-sighted it for the distances involved and made sure that all of his marks lined up as he installed the telescopic sight.

Clark excused himself and went over to talk to Bill Henderson. When they started to talk they strolled away from everyone so that they could talk privately.

Linda is a pain:


When I saw this 20 years ago all the way up to right now, I have always thought that Linda's excuse was a load of hooey. No woman (or man for that matter) backstabs their best friend like that!

That was a close one, it would not do to have Linda in on the secret, she would hold it over their heads.

Hmmmm, sounds like an expert with firearms wrote this part.
