Lois is walking down the street by herself, on her way to Clark's apartment. Suddenly, a windowless white van pulls up to the curb next to her. The door opens up and..
"Ook."
Lois turns to look. In the shadowed interior of the van, she can just make out the shapes of what seems to be...people? In...pointy hats? Something in the shadows jumps out, landing in front of her.
