Clark's still fresh as a daisy.
Ching has shot his own test in the foot, though. In the show Ching's test showed that Kal-El would risk his own life to save not only a stranger, but a complete a..., ahem, 'turd' I believe is the cover word we're using now, as well. In this case all Ching has managed to prove is that Clark would risk his own life to save his wife, which one would hope that most men would do. But, then again, maybe this Ching is not looking for self-sacrificing character as much as for physical courage. In that case, Clark passes after all.
And to think this all grew out of an innocent little romp.
