“Wha...” she began, staring at him as if taking in a stranger. Reaching out a trembling hand, she touched the fully grown beard now covering his face.
Now I am sort of wondering if Charlie the time traveling doesn't have a sort of aging effect on Clark???

And I did somehow expect HG Wells to show up somewhere to collect Charlie and now he needs to leave to save the future .... At least now we can somewhat peacefully wait for the next part and keep thinking "Lois is dead" etc.
