Complete Story

I enjoy creating back stories for minor characters in the series, so this challenge was right up my alley. Enjoy!

A glorious but unfortunately, all too often, true story. However this situation could at least get a search warrant for the Lake's houses to see if all of their 'treasures' actually belonged to them. I suspect a number of the objects would end up having been stolen and probably from some people/institutions with deep pockets also which could make the ensuing court battles interesting for the Lakes.

And I loved the comment about toilet facilities as it does bring home continuity issues of many of the episodes.

Excellent (though infuriating) story! My teeth were grinding at Amber's attitude the whole way through

Thanks for writing, Groobie!

Wow, that was actually difficult to read because it happens all too often in real life (which means you did an excellent job). I want nothing more than to punch Amber in her smug face. However, with her free (for the time being, and I agree with Mike that the Lakes probably have a fair amount of...questionably acquired items in their collection) this could well lend itself to a sequel in which the Lakes push their luck and go after Lois and Superman again. Maybe they DO leak part/all of the private conversation, or at least threaten to.

Excellent story!

LOL...surely not! The Lakes are fine, upstanding people. I'm sure all of the paperwork is in order for the Venus de Milo's arms.

Glad to hear I got Amber's voice right. The fact that she irritated you all means I succeeded. Thanks for the comments!

Urgh! This introspective of Amber's is so sad but true.

Okay so maybe the paperwork is in order for the statue's arms, but I have little doubt there will be other folks howling for the Lakes' to do community service of some kind.

Somehow I can't imagine Lois and Clark sitting by allowing those two to get away with theft and kidnapping. Anybody remember a guy named Lex Luthor? What happened to him when he tangled with those two?

There are other forms of justice. I wonder if Jor-El would take umbrage to his first-born son bring used as an exhibit?

Anyhow, that's my two-cents. Great work Groobie!
