This story has been quite intriguing so far. I hate seeing Lois so broken, but it's also good to know that killing people has long-reaching consequences.

I love how Clark is there for her, and how he instantly knew that it was the people forcing her to the decision that were to blame, not Lois. Lois still has to deal with her own guilt, but at least she doesn't have to worry about Clark being revolted by her.

I love the line where he says he'll be there for her just because. It reminded me of the episode where he tells Lois his love for her is forever just because (paraphrased, of course).

Looking forward to the next part!
