Thanks to Groobie for suggesting that I finish this story before year's end. Now that you've read this 4th part, you can see why I was hesitant in posting it. All the scenes were taken from the Ultra Woman episode with only a slight twisty adjustment on my part. This was my original Part 3, but every beta I had read it said that I totally avoided Lois and Clark talking about what happened in Part 2. My new Part 3 (completely original) was only written because this part was universally panned by my Betas (all three of them).

Anyway, please let me know what you think. Should I include it with the first three parts when I submit it to the Archives, or shall we just leave this rehashed ending on the drawing room floor?

Thank you for reading and for Lynn, Christina, and Wendy for pushing me to be a better writer.

I think this works as a part 4. It wraps up the A-plot from UltraWoman, and the ending brings us that funny nod to UltraWoman singing karaoke in the bar. Clark and Lois are adorable together, and the line about UltraWoman ditching Superman for Jimmy was fabulous. Glad you finished it up!

I vote for including this epilogue in the story. I think it nicely ties up the loose ends, and the humor is great.

Yay, you posted it!!

And this does tie things up quite nicely. I love it!

groobie: Thanks. I'm glad you liked that joke at Superman's expense. Poor fellow, it seems he can't catch a break.

cuidadora: Always good to hear people enjoying my oddball humor. Thank you.

Christina: Yes, I finally posted it. Better late than never. It works better with that revamped (completely new and original) Part 3. Thanks for all your help on this!

That's 3 votes for keeping it in. Should I list it as part of the story or as an epilogue? (I don't usually break up my shorter stories into parts or chapters when I submit them to the Archives.)

It definitely seems like part of the story to me.

I agree. It seems more Part 4 than Epilogue to me.

Thanks, you guys!

I'm inspired to write a Christmas story now... if only I could find the time to do the actual writing.

It's been forever since I signed into the site, but a new part to this story? That'll give me the motivation actually log in.

This has always been a fun story and since Ultra Woman is one of my favorite episodes, all of the scene tweaks were quite enjoyable to read.

I also vote for including this part in the story.

Lady Loisette: Aw. Shucks. Thanks. I'm glad you liked this story and my tweaking of those final scenes of UW. Thanks too for logging in and saying 'Hi!'

Catching up on the boards, and thrilled to find more of this story ...

I'd like to add a vote of FOR SURE keeping it, and DEFINITELY making it a Part 4 vs. an Epilogue to the story .

I, personally, feel that the story seems complete now...I love how you wrapped everything up, and the end line is a great circle back to earlier in the piece.

Lovely job, Virginia .

Laura: Thank you for the applause and your kind words.

Everyone has voted to keep this last section of the story, so I guess it's officially a part.

Thank you all for reading and for taking the time to give me feedback. I really appreciate it.

Aww…they’re in love!
RALPH:

Huh? Was I right? But the tone of voice doesn’t match, so…

SUPERMAN: But she was *blonde*!

SUPERMAN: Now, Lois, you can’t go around distrusting people like that.

Naughty Writer! Naughty!

Wait, I thought Lois knew both Newtrich sisters? At least, now I know where I knew that scene from.





They are going to take a commemorative shot of the Newtrich sisters and Ultra Woman?

Clever. Didn’t see that one coming.

But hers?
LOIS: See? /points at feet/ Sturdy pumps. Perfect for jumping.

Look who’s a yellow bellied chicken now!


That’s not actually a lie.
CLARK: I’ve trained her well. Treat, Lois?
LOIS:

Wonder Woman: Me, too!

Yadda yadda yadda, she also likes to be on top…


BATMAN:

Right.
CLARK: I *didn’t*! At least, not when I was going out with a blonde!

Oops?

That was fun! The ending needs to stay. And now back to our regular programming where things go *really* wrong with Clark…

Darth Michael: Yea! The weekend comith and I have time again to respond. Thanks again for your wonderful comments!

Clark's chagrin was the night before when UW was carrying him like Superman usually carries Lois.
LOIS: And who invited Ralph?

See above about Clark's previous night's chagrin.

UW: Exactly!
SUPERMAN: So, I'm not supposed to rescue blondes?
UW: No. Leave 'em to me.
BLONDE: Oh, thanks, Ultra Woman. Look at that. I wasn't in trouble after all.

LOIS: Sure, I can. I'm Lois Lane. Distrust is my middle name!
CLARK: I thought it was Joanne.
LOIS: I like Distrust better.



That's Clark.

LOIS: I hate this part of the hero business.

AND I autocorrected that swerve.

LOIS: Martha insisted.

LOIS: Clark! You said you wouldn't post that photo to Facebook!

Well, she has hung out with that excuse maker for years now.

ULTRA WOMAN: Um... You're too far south. Gotham City is THAT way.

Oh, that part hasn't changed.

Batman does like people to follow his rules, doesn't he?

He didn't worry about Lois's safety when he was dating Mayson?

Thanks, Michael. I'm still working on it. I did get distracted by these other fics, but now my energy is back where it belongs. I'm hoping to finish up this mini-arc in 3-4 more parts.

Weekends. Very nice periods of time.



Oh boy.

CLARK: But Jimmy insisted!




BATMAN: And be able to knock them out flat.

You think he did?

Always fun to get things into perspective, like your definition of ‘mini’
