Great plot twist about Trask's failure to understand the power of the green rock. I was so happy that you ended the "Trask has kryptonite" angst, only to be attacked with the "Esmeralda is trying to get her hooks into Clark and, even though he's innocent, Lois will be hurt" angst.
I did, however, love the fact that Lois managed to figure out his secret on her own before Clark does something stupid like pretending to be dead.
I'm looking forward to seeing how the next chapter goes.
