How'd you feel about tonight's Clois scenes?

[eas]

OK, I guess this is becoming a tradition...

You know the drill. Don't vote or post until the episode airs.

Amended: You can post... just don't vote.

*Sana mumbles stuff about smart-a$$es under her breath*

[Jade4813]

But there's no poll on here! :(

[lrog127]

What if I post and say, "I can't wait"? is that aloud?...lol:D

[Jade4813]

*snort* I always love eas' options.

I also apparently love flaunting the rules and posting before the episode airs.

*FLAUNTS AWAY!*

[eas]

Can you see the poll now? I was having some problems with K-Site.

[Jade4813]

Yeah, it's up now. I always love your options.

[geminis]

What if I post and say, "I can't wait"? is that aloud?...lol:D

:rotfl::D Right there with you, sister.

[eas]

Yeah, it's up now. I always love your options.

Aw, thanks! :)

I was rushed with this one... my daughter has a really bad cold & I've come down with it, too. So, actually, I'm logging off now... but I felt like it wasn't a Clois Thursday unless I posted my little poll, so I got on just for this.

See ya all in a few hours!! Only 3 1/2 hours to go!!! :D

Slightly different scenario, but ask Jenn; I recommend icy hot! ;)Hope you both feel better. Like pronto. Good poll, btw.

Help, help, I'm being obsessed!

[Wicked Lois]

=] I want to say that I loved it, but I maybe I will really really love it!!

[minerva73]

I want more Clois revelations this episode and with the episode named Identity, maybe it'll come true. :D

[geminis]

Wickedly, I want to vote. Sadly, I contain myself. But let me say now that Clois could never disappoint me, except by their absence. They keep bettering themselves this season and I anticipate more of the same tonight.

[Carolina87]

*IZ TEMPTED TO VOTE* anything having to do with Clois will make me happy tonight so regardless of how this episode goes i will vote "Mccain...opps i mean Loved it"

[WickedJenn]

OMG...

that scene

*THUD*

[susangail]

Funny as h-ll

[abbaspice1]

It was great!!!

[Carolina87]

Not enough clois in this ep but it was cute nonetheless!!

[amberdawn]

There wasn't much, but we got was good

[clois_lover10]

I loved it!! :D
Their conversation about dating was hilarious (Clark's facial expressions, anyone?) and the scene where Clark saved Lois (however short) was fabulous. And their conversation at the end... first exclusive interview?? I hope so... :)

[wildcherry]

I love that she calls clark when she was in trouble, i wish she knew it was him though.

[LightSeeker]

They were so cute together, as always.
But I'm bummed Lois won't remember Clark zipping her up.:(

[hyped4lnc]

I love that she calls clark when she was in trouble, i wish she knew it was him though.
I think it was telling that he the first person she thinks to call when she is in trouble.

The scenes tonight were golden. I thought there would be more, but I won't complain. I loved this episode.

[curiosity]

They were so cute together, as always.
But I'm bummed Lois won't remember Clark zipping her up.:(

Especially since she had a smile on her face while he was doing it.

[eas]

Why won't Lois remember? Does that guy steal the memory?

I liked a few of the scenes between them... but, honestly, I voted that I was very interested. Because - to me - I've seen better Clois.

I think my favorite part was that they showed the scene of the dress zipping from Lois's POV and we see that she has a big grin... that was a nice touch.

I think, though, that I didn't like Clark's treatment of her... I thought we were past the stage where he said the guy she was going out with was unlucky and that he'd make a comment about her dress (although, I guess, he was unhappy she looked so good while going on a date).... it was a little bit too much like S4Clois, to me, and it seemed odd after what we've seen this season.

On a side note, though, I was happy to see the zipping-up scene because it was almost identical to a scene I wrote in a fan-fic... about 2 years ago!!

[davidbrenton]

They were so cute together, as always.
But I'm bummed Lois won't remember Clark zipping her up.:(

I know, I didn't really understand if he actually takes the memories. Tess said he did, but Lois still remembered his secret after he touched her.

On topic, I enjoyed Clois. It was a huge focus, but it was cute, and it did progress the story. I have a feeling the Lois/Superman/Clark triangle is right around the corner, but I have to say I am enjoying just Lois/Clark and hope that lasts a while. I have more of a hate-hate-love relationship when I'm frustrated she doesn't see Clark as a great guy compared to Supes.

[skylar]

My heart was racing when Lois put her hand on his chest I
think Clark kind of was into it!!

[AndiGirl]

Yea...why wouldnt Lois remember Clark zipping her up??

Which...btw...HOT! haha. I remember during the scene I was bumbed we didnt get to see her face...but they definitely made up for that!

I love jealous Clark "do you always wear so little on a first date?"

[wildcherry]

My heart was racing when Lois put her hand on his chest I
think Clark kind of was into it!!

i don't remember that!

[beatles4]

Last episode was too serious, no humour cuz our Lois was missing! This was WAY better and I really enjoyed it to the hilt. That ending was so unexpected. I loved the way Lois was so determined to getting the first interview with "super-dude" LOL! Hehe, cute name.

[roccanater]

They were good. I really liked them.

[theotherJane]

i don't remember that!

Possibly when she was kicking him out?

[AndiGirl]

Possibly when she was kicking him out?

Lois walks up to Clark and says "Thats what a guy does when he likes a girl Clark...he asks her out."

She just walks up and puts her hand on his chest! It was cute that they were trying to get a rise out of eachother! :lol:

[WookieeBoy]

I think some posters are taking the whole "stealing memories" a little too literally. People can still remember everything after that guy "stole" their memories. What is meant by "steal" is that he can see into their memories. He can steal a glimpse of them, not take them away.

[Kel-El09]

Haha!! Lois so was into Clark zipping up her dress. Whenever she was on the "date" with sebastion...and he saw her memories...we get see her face when he's zipping it up...she liked it!!

[Kel-El09]

They were so cute together, as always.
But I'm bummed Lois won't remember Clark zipping her up.:(
Why won't she remember...

[curiosity]

That was cute.

[minerva73]

i don't remember that!

That was right before she gave her "I'm a big girl" speech and before Sebastian walked in. He just finished zipping her dress.

Even though the Clois scenes were limited, I loved them soooo much. *votes first option*

[theotherJane]

Lois walks up to Clark and says "Thats what a guy does when he likes a girl Clark...he asks her out."

Ooh now I get it. How stupid of me to forget that. :\ I think she was trying to give him a hint, *wink* *wink*.

[Aloof]

Awww. I thought that scene was funny.

[thehenry89]

the look on both of their faces was bloody priceless :lol: I think clark even blushed alittle ;)

[colibri]

Loved them. There weren't many but they were hilarious.

[Smallville6]

Loved it of course!

"so who's the unlucky guy?"

:rotfl:

Clark was soooo jealous!

[Wicked Lois]

I need a hug... =[

[OneShotClois]

I love that she calls clark when she was in trouble, i wish she knew it was him though.

Exactly how I feel. I loved how he was the first person she'd call if she was in any trouble, but also wish she knew that he saved her.. she doesn't have to know his secret but he coulda hit the guy over the head with a chair. :p

[Carolina87]

my point exactly... he could have saved her with her knowing it was him and then we would have gotten all this good CLOIS ackwardness/cuteness going on XD but i guess will have to wait till next week *keeps fingers crossed for more clois*

[LightSeeker]

Why won't she remember...

From what I understood was that once Sebastian touches your hand and steals your memories and you won't have any recollection of them any more.


I think some posters are taking the whole "stealing memories" a little too literally. People can still remember everything after that guy "stole" their memories. What is meant by "steal" is that he can see into their memories. He can steal a glimpse of them, not take them away.
...but this makes much more sense. And it makes me happy that Lois will indeed remember the zipping up.:D

[OneShotClois]

Why won't Lois remember? Does that guy steal the memory?

I liked a few of the scenes between them... but, honestly, I voted that I was very interested. Because - to me - I've seen better Clois.

On a side note, though, I was happy to see the zipping-up scene because it was almost identical to a scene I wrote in a fan-fic... about 2 years ago!!

ITA! I voted the same thing because I, too, saw better Clois, and I guess my expectations for this show were much more higher than what actually aired, but I won't lie, the scenes were awesome. The Dress-zipping, Clark-saving, Lois-smiling, Clark jealous were scenes that were played out really good, and I loved them.

I agree about the s4 thing. It did remind me a lot like season 4. Also the scene where he had the look on his face before zipping up her dress, just made me think he'd probably have the same face if he was doing the same thing in season 4, soo I don't know.. But I did like Lois' smirk.

[double L]

That is a good point about the season 4 Clois. It was vintage season 4 in her apartment. Which is not bad, b/c season 4 is great, but at this point they are way past that. Especially after Committed. The Clois scenes could have been better.

[lanalang1018]

My favorite clois scene was when Lois asked Clark to zip up her dress. I was literally laughing outloud. And THEN....when we see Lois's memory of her reaction to Clark zipping up her dress, I started giggling.

I've always been a clois fan from the start, but since season 8 started, I've become crazy for clois!

[rebecavaldez]

ok i KNOW i wasn't the only one who saw the smile on Lois's face when that guy did his mind thing and looking back on Lois's memory of Clark helping zip up her dress. I was in the room with 3 other people and every one of them noticed.
Awe i love Clois which there was more scenes of them tonight but it's ok...i still love them!

[curiosity]

It was priceless.

[Cyn]

Even though the Clois wasn't much, I voted I loved it. I try to think each Clois moment will suck before the episode airs. That way, I am pleasantly surprised when it doesn't suck. LOL. Tonight's episode rocked with every character. I give it 2 thumbs up and a middle finger to anyone who disagrees. LOL.

[eas]

I don't think her memories were stolen... Sebastian learned to control his powers, so she still has those memories intact.

I didn't even realize until later - when they showed her POV in the zip scene - that Lois was trying to get a rise out of Clark. She was basically telling him, "Ask me out already!!" That's why she placed her hand on his chest and made that comment.

I sensed a little jealousy from Clark - but more than anything, I sensed confusion and discomfort. He just seemed so confused, to me. Not exactly jealous, but kind of like shell-shocked. Like, "What? You're going out? Why would you do that? I'm so confused....".

I liked how Lois grabbed his hand away before he could touch Sebastian... she was looking out for him. What I don't understand is why she willingly gave her hand to Sebastian to have him read her palm... she had to have known what would happen. That was a plot-hole.

At first I thought she was being mean to Clark by pushing him out the door, but then I realized that she was actually trying to protect him... to get him away from that guy. THAT was nice. :)

She called Clark!! That was a big deal... it seems that Clark has replaced Chloe on her speed dial! LOL... although, I still think it makes more sense for her to call 911... not exactly getting why she has something against that.

And Clark, for his part, gave up his whole plan so he could go save Lois. I loved how he grabbed that guy's arm... he looked so manly and pissed off. *sighs happily*

[THE"Lurker"]

^Just becuase you dont get it or understand doesnt mean its automatically a plot-hole

[Carolina87]

i don't remember that!

IF YOU DON'T REMEMBER PLZ WATCH THE EPISODE AGAIN!! IT WAS SO CUTE XD

[THE"Lurker"]

I bet Clark was thinking "No one messes with my Lois":cool:

omg i totally agree with everything you just said.....
i dont understand why she gave him her palm either..but i guess it was just so we would see that sneaky smile of hers when clark was zipping her dress..and did anyone else notice that Lois was wearing a black bra..im sure clark noticed!

[eas]

^Just becuase you dont get it or understand doesnt mean its automatically a plot-hole

Uhhh... OK...

If YOU got it, do you mind sharing with the rest of the class?

[Jade4813]

I'm a little on the fence about her giving him her hand. Maybe she knew he could read very recent memories but not that he could go further back. She wouldn't be afraid of him reading a memory of their date together, or even what was leading up to the date, because she didn't give herself away during that time.

So maybe she thought he could just read the last 1-2 hours, not further back, where the memory of her twigging onto his secret would be found.

[LightSeeker]

I don't think her memories were stolen... Sebastian learned to control his powers, so she still has those memories intact.

Ok, so they do get to keep their memories. Thats good to know.

I didn't even realize until later - when they showed her POV in the zip scene - that Lois was trying to get a rise out of Clark. She was basically telling him, "Ask me out already!!" That's why she placed her hand on his chest and made that comment.

Oh, I absolutely loved that part. It seems that she looks for any excuse to touch him. As would I.*sighs*:)

So Lois actually knew what this guy could do when she agreed to go out with him? And thats why she pushed Clark away? Wow, I feel really slow right now.:\

*sighs happily with ya* Pissed off, manly Clark is sexy.:eek:

If she didn't give her palm, it would have seemed too suspicious.

[eas]

If she didn't give her palm, it would have seemed too suspicious.

I suppose.... but she had a good excuse by saying that she doesn't go to fortune tellers. She even used the excuse...

Hhmmm... I don't know. She read his file... I'm sure she knew the extent of his powers. It could very well be that she thought that she'd get past him. Lois is arrogant that way. (Let's not forget that this is the same woman who tried to take on a woman who flipped over a car. LOL)

[Jade4813]

That's true. But didn't it also say his power was classified? Maybe she knew he was in Black Rock but didn't know his power at all. She just knew he was dangerous and, thus, she had to save Clark by getting rid of him earlier. After all, what does she think Clark has to hide?

[SteveS]

Yep, since lois admitted that she is in luv with ClarkMan,she set it up and he, though a bit uncomfortable with it, enjoyed it. To be fair, her back looked great. It would have been funny if he had popped her bra strap or pinched her butt, but I guess that would have been too much. As it was, it was okay.

[supes0]

What I don't understand is why she willingly gave her hand to Sebastian to have him read her palm... she had to have known what would happen. That was a plot-hole.


She seemed hesitant to give him her hand, then decided to brazen it out. Maybe she thought she could protect her memories? But obviously couldn't...

[eas]

Jade, I don't think it was about hiding Clark's secrets... I just think that she was looking out for him... as in, "I know what this guy does, so I'm going to protect you..." No one would want their mind invaded that way, so Lois was just taking care of Clark.

I think that the only explanation is that she figured she could handle the consequences.

[BadToad]

I thought that Clois missed the mark a bit tonight. So far this season, I've liked how they've balanced the banter with some nice stuff. But in this episode, I just felt like the banter came off more as belittling. I've said from the beginning that its a fine line, and I thought this episode missed that line. Honestly, the whole "errand boy/copy boy" stuff has kind of hit its shelf life, IMO. And I'm not just pointing the finger at Lois, because some of Clark's responses also seemed a bit much.

Just didn't work so well for me tonight. JMO

I agree... that's kind of what I meant when I said that I got S4 vibes from them... and that it was a bit jarring to see S4 Clois on the heels of what we've seen in S6-8. They've come so far... they're good friends and quite open about it. They enjoy hanging out together and Lois is obviously quite into Clark right now... and, for his part, Clark is very much her partner. So, it was a bit weird to see the two of them biting each other's heads off.

Although, I guess, part of Lois's attitude was coming from a place where she was trying to get a rise out of Clark on purpose. She wanted him to feel bad that she was going out with someone else... at least, that's the sense that I got. Plus, she was trying to keep him away from the guy because she was trying to protect him.

[myankskent]

Yeah, I didn't understand what was going on at first when she kicked Clark out like that. I'm glad that she did get Clark out of there.

[Jade4813]

Gonna have to disagree with you on this one, eas.

I just rewatched the flashback scene. In very big red letters over the screen she's reading, it says "ABILITIES: CLASSIFIED." And there's a voiceover of Lois saying, "Abilities classified?"

I don't think she knew what his powers were. She definitely knew he had powers and probably suspected he was or at least COULD be dangerous - which is why she got rid of Clark and also mentioned that she could take care of herself (a little clue to him, perhaps). But I don't think she knew what they were because the show went out of its way to show the "Classified" nature of his abilities in the file. Otherwise, I think they'd have something like, "MIND READER" on the screen, since that was of interest to Tess. (Or nothing at all, actually.)

Yep, I think she was just worried in general about Sebastian touching Clark since she knew he had some sort of ability, which would go along with her "protecting you" speech at the end of the epi.

But then why would the bad guy be so scared of her seeing that screen? He wanted to kill her because she knew everything about him, didn't he?

*confuddled*

Anyway, I'm not going to over-think this.... my throat hurts way too much. LOL

----- Added 2 Minutes later -----


Yeah, I didn't understand what was going on at first when she kicked Clark out like that. I'm glad that she did get Clark out of there.

Yeah, I wasn't happy about the way she was treating him, but then I felt better when it was explained later on.

I also liked that Clark asked her why she didn't just TELL him that she was undercover. Her answer was very sweet... that she was trying to protect him. The look on his face was very nice.

I thought that Clois scene, at the end, was very sweet.

Aww feel better Sana :o

I think just her knowing he has an ability, and plus his past, I'm guessing of all the stuff he did "four years ago" was on there somewhere.

:)

[Jade4813]

She knew he'd been in Black Rock, and she knew he was a MF. The fact that he was an MF was something that had gotten him into trouble in the past and landed him in the cell for 4 years to begin with. So there could be that. Plus, as Tess pointed out, Lois was a reporter. There was also the chance she'd keep digging until she found out his secret - and maybe about the girls he'd killed. At any rate, that Lois knew he had a power - regardless of what his power is - made her a threat to him. We see how well it works out for MFs on this show in general. ;)

I originally thought maybe it was a bluff thing too, but I'm staring at the screen (paused on his file) and I'm seeing the "Classified" sign but I can't make out anything about his powers. I'll keep staring at it though, see if I can work anything out...

I hope you feel better, hon!

[eas]

Thanks, guys!

On that note, I'm off to bed.

[Jade4813]

YUP! Staring at the screen, I see that I was right!

Here's what it says...

On the top, under his name (in red) it says what looks like "Abilities: Classified Criminal History: Homicide"

Then you've got vital stats. Name. Eye color. Hair color. City (presumably of birth). Stuff like that.

Under that, you've got all those boxes. 99% of them have "Classified" in them. The ones that don't say classified say..."Homicide"..."Yes" (Can't read the question on that one)..."Wilson Turner"... Highly dangerous...A date - maybe that he was brought to the facility? - and...I think it looks like "Gun" maybe? Part of it is behind the red text. And then journalist.

Nothing about what his power is on the screen. So all Lois would know is that he was a MF who had been at Black Rock, that he'd killed people, and that he was classified as "highly dangerous."

Wish I knew how to screen cap this for you guys but alas I don't!

[individuall]

OK the only scene I've watched is the zipper scene..But I think the reason Lois called Clark 'copy boy' and whatnot is to down play him to Sabastian...I mean I think we can all imagine what it would be like to be going on a date with someone walk into their apartment and see (if you're a guy) some massive good looking brick house standing there...Intimidatation much? So Lois did the right thing...Kinda like what she did S6 when she told Ollie about Clark and he was surprised when he actually met the infamous 'Smallville' LOL. I also think it was to keep up with her trend of getting a rise out of him...Which was basically what she was doing the entire scene :D...I LOVED it...ITA that it did feel a little like S4 Clois...But I enjoyed it nonetheless :)

I'm also happy Lois got him out of there before they shook hands..Good lookin out Lane!...Gotta protect her Clarkie :)

[pizzahead2490]

i liked lois face when clark was zipping her dress, and i liked how she called clark for help even though she could of called 911.
the clois scenes were limited but it was good, not great.

[geminis]

Feel better Sana, and hope your daughter does too.

Lois, as per my suspicions, was suspicious of the luscious Kyle Schmid Sebastian from the get go. She, as the illustrious Jade said, knew he had an ability but not exactly what. I'm sure she had an inkling that it was something to do with contact information retrieval, hence her save of Clark, but it isn't fatal. She also has nothing really to hide.

The zipper scene was all kinds of awesome. We got a double scoop view of the zipper: from Clark's perspective and from Lois' and both are 100% attracted. I kind of imagine that Clark was stopped dead in his tracks by Lois' request to zip him up and I think maybe he didn't particularly want to zip her up. On the contrary, I think he wanted the exact opposite... And Lois' view. In full red happy technicolor. Boy I love red!

And I think the whole "errand boy, copy boy" on Lois' behalf is her protecting herself; same with Clark and his sniping at Lois about her date ending with a thud and how he sounded just her type? They're both a little close to dangerous territory that really hits home and still hunkered down in defensive positions.

But he saves her twice and she does the same thing. And her second was a direct request! She might as well have said "Superman, save me!"

I still have hopes that eventually we'll get to see obvious Clark falling all over Lois. After the leavetaking of my not so favorite color.

[Deana]

Oh yeah, I voted very interested. I had low expectations from the beginning (Clana flashbacks that have me weary of actually believing the writers will actually take Clois seriously. One cannot be disappointed if they don't expect much from the beginning).

OK the only scene I've watched is the zipper scene..But I think the reason Lois called Clark 'copy boy' and whatnot is to down play him to Sabastian...I mean I think we can all imagine what it would be like to be going on a date with someone walk into their apartment and see (if you're a guy) some massive good looking brick house standing there...Intimidatation much? So Lois did the right thing...Kinda like what she did S6 when she told Ollie about Clark and he was surprised when he actually met the infamous 'Smallville' LOL. I also think it was to keep up with her trend of getting a rise out of him...Which was basically what she was doing the entire scene :D...I LOVED it...ITA that it did feel a little like S4 Clois...But I enjoyed it nonetheless :)

I'm also happy Lois got him out of there before they shook hands..Good lookin out Lane!...Gotta protect her Clarkie :)I agree that she was protecting Clark during that whole scene. If she read that guy's file, then she knows about his "stalker/killer" background along with his freaky power.
What do stalkers love to do? Get rid of the competition in a very horrible way (see the movie Fear). She made it seem that the hot man in her apartment was only a copy/fetching/country boy that would prove no threat to Sabastian.
And lets not forget that this is Lane here. If it were Clark's story/investigation and she caught wind of it, she so would have stolen it or taken over the investigation. Maybe she thought Clark would do the same so she killed two birds with one stone. She saved Clark and saved her story. :lol:

The Clois WAS a little off tonight from what we've seen so far this season. Disappointing I guess. Oh well.

Very good points. I noticed she didn't say Clark's name; if she had, Sebastian would have cottoned AND her byline could possibly be at risk. Protecting Clark and her story all in one fell swoop. Very neat.

I think Committed just spoiled the Cloisers. But I'm not feeling let down. Still firmly welded to that bench.

[borednow]

I just loved how awkward Clark was in zipping up Lois' dress... also looking back on it, since Lois knew who her date was it was very very sweet of Lois to have protected Clark the way she did, pushing him out of the hand shake... that actually seemed a bit odd at the time but looking at it now suddenly it is very... cute. And such a Lois way to do it, insult and help at the same time. :D

[Aran]

I understand the dissapointed feeling, but in my opinion the little regression to season 4 is because now they really like each other

Lois noticed that on Instinct and Clark on Commited, both on elevators scenes... They know now that they are in that awkard fase that are really uncorfortable with each other trying to deny their mutual feelings.

Like when at the start of the eppie Lois asks Jimmy if CK is coming with them to dinner, because she knows how she feels. My guess is that next week in Bloodline they will be on a completely different and terrible scenario we will see them closer..

Besides it was more like the classic Lois and Clark relationship with her closing him the door at his face, making him jelaous and of course he going to rescue her.

Not every eppie has to have a loft scene like Instict, you know I loved that but if there are many of them we will have another Lana and I don´t want that.

I want them closer to each other I want more but maybe that´s not the best to keep the relationship fresh.
Maybe we were expecting them more affectionate and tender with each other, but I like the tough side too it reveals so much inner emotions hide inside of them.

We will see guys we will see...:rolleyes:

[SnowBird]

Looks like Lois doesn't have her own place yet. I'm always interested in Lois and Clark scenes. They are so good together and concerned for the safety of each other. That Lois gets herself in a lot of trouble and she doesn't even know Clark's secret yet. It's a good thing Clark is able to save her. I'm glad they are going slow because I want a season 9 and it would be too early for them to be a couple this season.

[LCforever]

Well, Committed is a hard episode to beat for Clois scenes but.. how can ANYTHING beat the CONFESSION OF LOVE?!

See...so many people keep talking about how Clois is moving too fast and now people are saying that the Clois scenes are a regression to S4...

I agree with people that they are now in a crossroads. Clark is growing an attraction towards Lois and Lois is already IN LOVE with Clark. They need to play it off in front of each other and the only way they know how is to revert to the way they know best! Which is, make fun of each other!

They haven't let go of all the things that they gone through recently. They still joke around but they still say "thank you for watching out for me" and "i know you'll be there for me".. which marks how much their friendship has grown!

BUT...now they also have their feelings to deal with...and it is now playing under the surface. Once they both realize about how they feel, they're going to have to confront them. Right now, I think they're both dazed and confused.

Great episode! Loved HOW CLOSE CLARK IS COMING TO SUPERMAN! ANNNNDDDD.. ESPECIALLY the reference to "THE EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW" that LOIS says is now HER LIFE'S MISSION!!;)

Sigh. I wish we could have Smallville (S8) episodes 2 times a week!!:rolleyes:

[flying_girl]

i agree with aran and LCforever about why it seems like s4. lois now relizes that she is in love with clark and she doesnt know how she feels about it so she goes back to teasing clark because she figures thats the best way to find out how he feels. clark is teasing lois because he thinks shes in love with him but hes not 100% sure that she didnt lie so hes teasing her cuz thats the best way to figure out how she feels.
i love the zipper scene and how uncomfortable clark is zipping up lois, if it was chloe he wouldnt have minded. i also love that line about what a date is from lois

I'm pretty sure she will remember getting zipped up. That guy was able to see memories and thats all. Yes ... always love the clois scenes. Clearly Clark likes her. Its just a matter of time!

[jobookjunkie]

Loved it! I am an unashamed Clark-and-Lois fan so anything with the 2 of them together is great :D The zipper scene was priceless, I've watched it about 6 times and it's funny every time. Especially when we see it from Lois's POV and she's loving the fact that it's Clark who is doing up her zip. I wanted more of them but I guess there were other important plotlines going on at the time :rolleyes:

Plus, she called Clark before 911. Gotta love that :rotfl:

[DGirlLois4Clark]

I will always love any scene with Clark and Lois. Cann me biased;)
Clark zipping up Lois dress was Hilarious. Naughty Lois:lol:

[Kal-ed]

Ask...



Smooth... :cool:

[jimmyolsenblues]

I will never forget the dress scene...;)

[Kal-ed]

The clois was great, better than commited for me, I think the emergency break was needed, I dont want to see them fall for eachother in the span of 7 episodes, or 10 I want it to be a whole season long and with love confesion in the air at every turn it would have made it ridiculous if they didnt get together soon, so Im glad they are back to the banntering yet their friendship is stronger and obviously there´s some atraction there.

Its been mentioned in this thread but some people seem to have skiped it, Lois´s attitude towards Clark at the apartment was her protecting him, she even managed to avoid Clark being touched by the guy with the memory power. They´r frienship wasnt regresed its as its been since he started working at the DP.

Love the anvil with the "crossdressing pilot" comment, hilarious, I mean if one does not know about Clark and his futuer with the flight and thights, that´s probably the first image that would come to mind :lol:

[celita]

I liked how Lois grabbed his hand away before he could touch Sebastian... she was looking out for him. What I don't understand is why she willingly gave her hand to Sebastian to have him read her palm... she had to have known what would happen. That was a plot-hole.


It wasn't a plot hole, she was trying to make Sebastian talk about the Black Creek, so she let him touch her hand for him to know that she knew who he was. Lois wasn't after Sebastian, she was after Luthorcorp and she wanted to interview Sebastian to get proof against Luthorcorp.

[LoveHurts38]

I love any Clois interaction.

[Bizarrolover]

I'm not sure what were the exact words, I have to rewatch the scene (i'm at work now and I can't turn the sound of the video now), but Lois said 'he's the smartest copy boy' or something alont those words and then pushed Clark out of the room. I don't think she was belittling him, just protecting him and her cover.

[baltazor]

The scene with Sebastian were he took her memories was awesome!! She was actually smiling when Clark was zipping her !!! I adored that scene...

[Jade4813]

Thank you! :D

[supes0]

I agree... that's kind of what I meant when I said that I got S4 vibes from them... and that it was a bit jarring to see S4 Clois on the heels of what we've seen in S6-8. They've come so far... they're good friends and quite open about it. They enjoy hanging out together and Lois is obviously quite into Clark right now... and, for his part, Clark is very much her partner. So, it was a bit weird to see the two of them biting each other's heads off.

Although, I guess, part of Lois's attitude was coming from a place where she was trying to get a rise out of Clark on purpose. She wanted him to feel bad that she was going out with someone else... at least, that's the sense that I got. Plus, she was trying to keep him away from the guy because she was trying to protect him.


It was jarring, but understandable. Lois now knows she's in love with Clark but he doesn't return her feelings (and I don't think he's where she's at yet). So she's at this uncomfortable juncture. She loves him, doesn't want to love him, but wants him to notice her. She grew up in a male dominated world, and as Clark has often pointed out, lackes feminine charm. Besides, she's known Clark for too long to try a little sweetness, he'd know something was up. So she falls back on the familiar. Taunting him to get under his skin, negative attention is better than no attention (think our kids acting out the minute you get on the phone.. "look at me!" :lol: )

Meanwhile Clark doesn't want to feel anything for Lois. After all he thinks he has lost his true love, feeling anything for a friend he's always looked at as a pest isn't exactly how he planned his future. She is outside his comfort zone. So he's getting irritable and falling back on the familiar, hoping the uncomfortable feelings will go away.

He was angry when he commented on her clothing, and when he said he was looking after her, he knew it was a lie and that didn't make him happy.

I do think she was trying to make him seen insignificant to Sebastian for his protection, to get him out of there without Sebastian thinking he was a threat of any kind.

I liked seeing Clark having the protection angle thrown back at him when he asked her why she didn't tell him the truth. He wasn't expecting that, and that was nice.

[DontCha]

heheh, two little gems in this episode

I knew clark was never going to be the same around Lois after his little realization in Commited and he's not..he was jealous, he's very attracted to her now but is unsure of how to handle it which is very understandable because he's ONLY just realized he has feelings for her. He also thinks Lois is unatainable because of what happened at the end Committed..

And when she said "you have a problem with the way I look?"

LMAO of course he doesnt..he thinks she's beautiful..which was confirmed by his weak weak little: "n...no..i..ii...im just looking out for you..thats all"

Guys when it comes to seeing love on screen it doesnt always have to be cutsey love and obvious caring, jealousy means they're in love too. So I dont know why people were unhappy about this in that episode. He reacted like a typical guy who has a NEW crush and gets jealous.


then Lois' reaction to the zipper..LOl fantastic. Theres no need to analize that its VERY obvious that Lois is now comfortable with the fact she loves clark.

[Isabel14]

The zipper scene...terribily good. Clois scenes were awesome. Even there was little interaction between them it makes you want to see more. Can't wait for next week's episode.

[Sv.LoisLane]

It wasn't a plot hole, she was trying to make Sebastian talk about the Black Creek, so she let him touch her hand for him to know that she knew who he was. Lois wasn't after Sebastian, she was after Luthorcorp and she wanted to interview Sebastian to get proof against Luthorcorp.

But... I think Lois didn't know about his powers. They were classified :confused:

[DontCha]

Also, this is nothing like season 4 IMO

In season 4 clark did not have feelings for Lois and Lois was not in love with clark. Als Lois would have never set out to make clark jealous of another guy.

She is deliberately making him jealous of Sebastian because she loves Clark and is now comfortable with that knowledge(as her PoV showed us later). She wants to get a reaction out of Clark. She knows she's made him jealous and she's not upset by his insult, shes happy because she knows its just jealousy which caused his raised tone of voice and the way he said "who's the unlucky guy?" its angry-jealous Clark. Lois was EXACTLY the same when she caught clark in the elevator she was just a tad more hysterical, guys are not so overt with their emotions.

Clark is overtly attracted to Lois now, Theres always been a physical attraction but he now has deeper feelings fo her and he knows it..but these are NEW feelings for her and so he's awkward..he was not giving an "ew I dont want to zip" look when he saw Lois' back and black bra. He looked her up and down and his mouth dropped. Then the hesitiation was HILARIOUS..he behaved like someone who finds her VERY hot and is nervous as hell about touching her

Its all good signs my friends..

[Isabel14]

Clark has realized how beautiful is Lois and that's why he's so nervous around her. Maybe he thinks he would do something he doesn't want to do, you know when you see a beautiful girl and you kiss her without thinking and then apologize. I would love to see something like that for Clark and Lois. It would be so romantic and heart-melt.

[DontCha]

Yep, since lois admitted that she is in luv with ClarkMan,she set it up and he, though a bit uncomfortable with it, enjoyed it. To be fair, her back looked great. It would have been funny if he had popped her bra strap or pinched her butt, but I guess that would have been too much. As it was, it was okay.

wow! was not expecting that from you LOL;)

[geminis]

wow! was not expecting that from you LOL;)

I agree. :eek: :lol:And re the bra strap pulling/butt pinching, that's more Bizarro's style.

When Clark zipped up her dress, she smiled!!! :eek:

[Kel-El09]

I know!! That made me happy...but theres already threads started about this. Try the Clois scenes thread...

[Iconic-Clois]

The zipper scene is the reason why I love these so much. Only Lois can make the Man of Steel squirm and be that bumbling innocent farmboy. I can only imagine what was going through Clark's head ;)

:lol: yeah Clark knows he would have used his x-ray vision if he'd been looking

[BadaBingBadaBoomsday]

Apologies is someone has already mentioned this but,

when Lois says while touching Clarks chest ((boy i was jealous, of Clark not Lois)):lol:

"sometimes when a boy likes a girl, he asks her out"

I cant help but think by the way Lois said that, that she desperately wants Clark to ask her out. Was she being sarcastic towards Clark.

Maybe she even suspects that Clark likes her, but is scared to aske her out.

Any opinions on that one???

Also when I first watched Clark going to zip her up, by the way he squinted his eyes I thought he was either going to burn a hole through her back with his heat vision, or her was going to x-ray her!!:p

I prefer the latter;):p:lol::p

[Jade4813]

Wow! SteveS, no offense, but...you feeling okay? ;) [/tease]

[stenochick]

The "zipper scene" was the best Clois yet. Neither one wants to reveal their hand but they cannot get enough of each other.

Also, what about this habit the two of them have where Lois calls him for help on her cellphone and he instantly shows up no questions asked? Love it!

Some people haven't felt the love for Identity as much as for other episodes but I agree; Clois just keeps on getting better and better and better, exactly like I knew it would.

Must say their habit is addicting. And it's exciting to see; Lois doesn't like to ask for help but she does from Clark. She might as well be saying Superman. We'll probably never get to hear her say those words but this is just as good, if not better.

Yeah, I see what you're saying. (As well as many others on this thread.)

I guess, for me, I wasn't expecting Clark to be acting the way he was in that scene. It was fairly obvious that Lois was teasing him (especially with the whole zipper thing) and she wasn't really being mean... but, in return, he was being pretty rude. I feel like she kind of upped her own rudeness in response to his....

But, yeah, I think this is the equivalent of pulling on a girl's pigtails when you're little. Clark was clearly confused by his own reaction to Lois's "date". That much was clear... that's why I said that I saw Clark as being more confused and annoyed than jealous. Perhaps he was jealous and that brought out feelings of confusion in Clark.

I felt that this episode showed us, at least, one thing: Lois is in love with Clark, but Clark doesn't know how he feels about Lois, yet. His feelings for her are deepening and it's probably freaking the daylights out of him. But, at this moment, I do think that Clark is so much more focused on being a super-hero that Lois & his love life are the least of his concerns.

I'm a Cloiser, but even I think that this is a good thing.

I wouldn't say that Lois and his love life are the LEAST of his concerns, but rather, they are something he isn't ready to handle yet. Clark, like Lois, is afraid of emotions. They both can handle the action but romance and love are dangerous territory so they mask it in sarcasm and secrecy. And becoming Superman is an important step for him to take; I definitely think he needs to step up into the boots and cape before taking on Lois. But we are also getting confirmation that they both are attracted and could fall in love with each other. And guess what? They're doing that!

I thought that smile was very creepy. I'd smile too if Clark was zipping me up, but she looked like she was having an MOD EDIT...:\

[Isabel14]

I was smiling too. Who wouldn't? She clearly is more comfortable around Clark and it seemed that she can control her feelings when she's around him.

I agree, he was testy, testier than he usually is. I thought it was a combination of two things. He's upset Jimmy got that picture. And he was caught going through Jimmy's stuff by Lois, so he's put on the defensive. He was ready to rush out of there without noticing anything different about her.

This is when she decided to push it a little by asking him to zip her, and that's when he switched gears and really saw her. I thought that added another layer of irritation to his already bad mood.

I felt he was angry that he cared about her date and/or how she was dressed. Jealousy is a negative emotion after all, with an anger component to it. I don't think he'd ever admit to being jealous, but when he said he was only looking out for her, it was clear he was upset she was going to see another man dressed the way she was.

I agree with this. He is nowhere near where she is at this point. And I think his super-hero dilemma should be his top priority, not his love life. This is a welcome change from the past 7 years! :rotfl:

I'm new to these Clois threads, but I liked the scenes. I voted the second to highest. :)

I find the Clark / Lois stuff very entertaining. They have a real chemistry together, don't you think? Well, I guess on a Clois thread, you probably agree. :)

Lewis

[eas]

Yes, I think they have great chemistry. Welcome to the boards, btw.

One of the things I did like about this episode was that Lois had a very seperate identity outside of "Clark's love interest" here. She was very much in Lois Lane-super-reporter mode and I loved that. I was getting afraid that Lois's whole storyline would revolve around Clark in this season and this episode proved that this is not the case.

[Guidron]

I thought that they were well done, and I was sooo happy that they continued the awkwardness around each other.

The scene at the talon was great. Lois purposely trying to make him jealous, Clark getting defensive and upset that Lois was going out with another guy. Then his whole reaction to the 'Zip me up'. It was great.

[pizzahead2490]

when clark said to lois do u always wear so little on the first date i had the feeling he was calling her a slut.

^I'm sure he wouldn't have minded the dress in the least if she was wearing it for him, rather than another guy ;)

He was just being jealous....Which I love :D

[borednow]

He was totally jealous... If she was going on a date with another guy anything would be too little unless it was a parka! :lol:

[Kevin24]

Clark was jealous but he wasn't too jealous. He definitely hid it well with his little insults and she was definitely up for the challenge. She was talking that guy up so bad to get a rise out of Clark.

I think the best scene was definitely her smiling because Clark was zipping her up. She was loving it!

[Cage]

She's trying to get Clark to ask her out - let's see - someone as beautiful as Lois - she's around you ALL the time -

I think we'll see it... but only after Lana leaves for good.

*crosses fingers... and toes, and anything that can cross*

[lrog127]

I think some posters are taking the whole "stealing memories" a little too literally. People can still remember everything after that guy "stole" their memories. What is meant by "steal" is that he can see into their memories. He can steal a glimpse of them, not take them away.

Thank you! ITA

[susangail]

Yeah, Clark is almost ready but not quite. We'll have to wait for the closure *foot tapping*

[lrog127]

I understand the dissapointed feeling, but in my opinion the little regression to season 4 is because now they really like each other

Lois noticed that on Instinct and Clark on Commited, both on elevators scenes... They know now that they are in that awkard fase that are really uncorfortable with each other trying to deny their mutual feelings.

Like when at the start of the eppie Lois asks Jimmy if CK is coming with them to dinner, because she knows how she feels. My guess is that next week in Bloodline they will be on a completely different and terrible scenario we will see them closer..

Besides it was more like the classic Lois and Clark relationship with her closing him the door at his face, making him jelaous and of course he going to rescue her.

Not every eppie has to have a loft scene like Instict, you know I loved that but if there are many of them we will have another Lana and I don´t want that.

I want them closer to each other I want more but maybe that´s not the best to keep the relationship fresh.
Maybe we were expecting them more affectionate and tender with each other, but I like the tough side too it reveals so much inner emotions hide inside of them.

We will see guys we will see...:rolleyes:

I totally agree with you. SOme people are saying that the relationship went way too fast and light switched and some say, Why wasnt' there more Clois in this episode! I feel that the writers are moving it at a good and logical pace. any more would have been too much and any less would have been disappointing. We just have to wait...as anxious as we are..:)

[smallviluva]

what i understood is that she knew he had an ability but she didnt know what it was. And the reason why she pushed clark away was to protect him...
oh and i loved everything bout clois tonight! i was disappointed there wasnt alot but still loved every second of it... OOh and i love the phrase she said about not telling him she was undercover to protect him out of harmsway, when he had just said the exact sentence to oliver about pple in harmsway finding out his secret!

[zorasuperman]

lol although i voted i loved it i think after commited, nothing can top that in my mind of lois confessing and clark looking (lovingly at least in my mind) at her.
maybe bride can top it. at least im hoping so. come on more clois moments

[smallviluva]

oh and i forgot to say, i loved the scene with the zipping, and the whole conversation when lois asked if clark had a problem with the way she looked, and he said no....just looking out for you! lol, he couldnt say yes i dont like what your wearing cuz theys a lie!!lol

[borednow]

Did anyone else crack up when Jimmy said Lois would be all over something like "A pitbull on a poodle" given that poodle was one of Clark's Committed nicknames?

[ginnyfan]

The banter was rather vicious but... Clois is always wonderfully interesting.

[LuthorKent90]

I thought they were very cute. The scene in the talon soo funny. :lol:

[geminis]

Did anyone else crack up when Jimmy said Lois would be all over something like "A pitbull on a poodle" given that poodle was one of Clark's Committed nicknames?

Oooooo! And Clark himself called Lois a pitbull... What a delicious comparison!

Looooooove it!

[ginnyfan]

HA! Great catch.

[borednow]

Thanks Ann and Britt!
LOL! Lois would be the one to just jump Clark and start ripping off things... LOL!

CLOIS = HOT

It just keeps getting better! :D

[Genny]

I love that she calls clark when she was in trouble, i wish she knew it was him though.

Me too. I wish she had seen him save her, maybe not see him super speed in, but I wish she had known he saved her. I loved how she called Clark to save her too, when I saw it I remembered in season 6 when she was attacked by those two guys who were trying to find out who the Green Arrow was she called Chloe for help, but this time she called Clark, it just shows how much closer they have become, she calls him to her rescue. It made my night, since there wasn't a lot of Clois scenes. I love Clois.

[FlashInSV]

I thought that smile was very creepy. I'd smile too if Clark was zipping me up, but she looked like she was having an MOD EDIT...:\

I just thought I'd let you know, I was drinking water when I read that line and I sprayed it all over my keyboard. :lol: :lol: So techinically, you owe me a new keyboard! :lol: rofl

I don't think she'd look like that if she was having an MOD EDIT.. ;)

[Jade4813]

Maybe not that...I don't know about you, but there's a lot more screaming going on for me when I have that. More like getting in the mood, maybe. ;)

CLOIS = HOT

It just keeps getting better! :D

Yes, The zipping was the hottest thing on this planet. And I almost fell off my chair when Sebastian saw Lois' flashback. Her FACE! She was so enjoying Clark zipping her up! Wow...

[Beauty_Karova]

Well I was kind of dissapointed. I hoped for more clois scenes and more tension between clark and lois.
But still...the few scenes we had were gooood (especially loved the "zip my dress" scene)

[Mars Investigations]

This season has converted me to Clois. :D

[pink_ninja]

That L&C zipping scene made me giggle soo much!I love it!

[DestinyAw8s]

It was jarring, but understandable. Lois now knows she's in love with Clark but he doesn't return her feelings (and I don't think he's where she's at yet). So she's at this uncomfortable juncture. She loves him, doesn't want to love him, but wants him to notice her. She grew up in a male dominated world, and as Clark has often pointed out, lackes feminine charm. Besides, she's known Clark for too long to try a little sweetness, he'd know something was up. So she falls back on the familiar. Taunting him to get under his skin, negative attention is better than no attention (think our kids acting out the minute you get on the phone.. "look at me!" :lol: )

Meanwhile Clark doesn't want to feel anything for Lois. After all he thinks he has lost his true love, feeling anything for a friend he's always looked at as a pest isn't exactly how he planned his future. She is outside his comfort zone. So he's getting irritable and falling back on the familiar, hoping the uncomfortable feelings will go away.

He was angry when he commented on her clothing, and when he said he was looking after her, he knew it was a lie and that didn't make him happy.

I do think she was trying to make him seen insignificant to Sebastian for his protection, to get him out of there without Sebastian thinking he was a threat of any kind.

I liked seeing Clark having the protection angle thrown back at him when he asked her why she didn't tell him the truth. He wasn't expecting that, and that was nice.
These are my thoughts exactly. Nicely put, supes0! :D I think Lois is now beginning to accept her feelings for Clark, so any little attention is gonna put her on cloud 9. But I doubt she's ready to let Clark know about them yet, hence the secret smile. Unfortunately, I believe things are about to change on her side, when Lana comes back. Clark, on the other hand, has had a pretty traumatizing love-live so far. So any blunt-force attraction is gonna have him taking a couple of steps back. TW did an excellent job of showing Clark's conflict with himself during the zip-up scene. His face is just so expressive that way. :) He was about to run outta there after Lois caught him red-handed rifling through Jimmy's stuff, but Lois brought him back and opened his eyes to what was going on with her. Thus, his weak, little, "why are you all dressed up?". LOL So cute! He's just gotta find out what has her looking so gorgeous.

And, when she was in trouble, Lois called Clark instinctively, because she knew, as Jimmy pointed out later, she could depend on him to get her out of the situation. She might not know exactly why or how, but she knew he was her best bet. There was really no time to waste thinking about it.

And yes, the little keeping secrets thing was right on target. Protecting the ones you care about is a two-way street. Lois was doing just that when she downplayed Clark's importance in her life by telling Sebastian that he was a simple errand boy. Although, he did kinda look like one with that satchel thrown over his shoulder. lol Anyway, I don't think it was actually meant as derogatory in the sense that she was just dissing on him for no reason. After all, she knew that her date was a homicidal maniac, with some kind of freakish power. So the faster she could get Clark outta there, the safer he would be. It was all about protecting someone she cares about. And she does care...deeply. :)

Anyway, that's my take on it. Others probably see it differently, but that's as it should be. We each watch the show for many of the same reasons, but how we actually interpret what we see is uniquely individual.

[DontCha]

when clark said to lois do u always wear so little on the first date i had the feeling he was calling her a slut.

----- Added 44 Seconds later -----

in a jking way


Of course not, he didnt say it in a nasty way..its just what guys do when they get jealous, they dont want who they have a crush on to be attractive other men and lois is wearing "so little" that will attract this other guy alot. Clark doesnt like that idea... Im sure if she asked clark to find her something suitable he'd go get a parka.

----- Added 5 Minutes later -----

thats a jealous guy for you..they can become real asses when they're jealous, they pick on you, they pick on the other guy...etc etc

----- Added 13 Minutes later -----


Yeah, I see what you're saying. (As well as many others on this thread.)

I guess, for me, I wasn't expecting Clark to be acting the way he was in that scene. It was fairly obvious that Lois was teasing him (especially with the whole zipper thing) and she wasn't really being mean... but, in return, he was being pretty rude. I feel like she kind of upped her own rudeness in response to his....

But, yeah, I think this is the equivalent of pulling on a girl's pigtails when you're little. Clark was clearly confused by his own reaction to Lois's "date". That much was clear... that's why I said that I saw Clark as being more confused and annoyed than jealous. Perhaps he was jealous and that brought out feelings of confusion in Clark.

I felt that this episode showed us, at least, one thing: Lois is in love with Clark, but Clark doesn't know how he feels about Lois, yet. His feelings for her are deepening and it's probably freaking the daylights out of him. But, at this moment, I do think that Clark is so much more focused on being a super-hero that Lois & his love life are the least of his concerns.

I'm a Cloiser, but even I think that this is a good thing.

I really didnt see it like that.

firstly think back to committed before Clark's realization scene in the elevator as she walked away. Before this momet he had no problem getting close to her and touching her whilst pulling her off a stool or even whilst she was in nothing but his jersey...why? because he didnt have romantic feelings for her. She's easy to touch and get close to.

Now think about the fact that after the end of Committed he's realized he has romantic feelings for this woman, these similar situations become AWKWARD

When someone first realizes they have romantic feelings the natural reaction is: hide it and control it. Do NOT let the other person know.

Clark is trying to keep lois at bay when he first sees her in Identity, to hide his new feelings his whole attitude is like: "I DONT LIKE YOU YOU ARE ANNOYING!" until he's confronted with what he's trying to avoid.

When she shows him her back and asks him to get close to zip ehr up. The way he reacted clearly indicates a change in him towards Lois. He now has newly realized romantic feelings for her and so he hesitates, he behaves like a man with a crush, he gets nervous about touching her. Im sure his heart was racing a mile a minute.

Lois was exactly the same a couple of episodes back, but after commited and coming to terms with the fact she loves clark, she's no longer worried about it.

[geminis]

Lois is definitely a more hands on type of person than Clark, that's for sure. I think Clark hesitated because he was afraid he might set her dress on fire. No more zipper problem. And no more dress. But he took a breath and was able to get the job done.

When Clark pulled Lois off of the barstool it was glaringly obvious that Lois liked it, but I'm pretty sure that Clark had fun too. And checked her out while doing so. Also, don't forget the strip tease in his kitchen, for like an hour, before she donned that jersey. Again, I'm pretty sure he liked that too. So, Clark Kent romantically in love with Lois Lane? Not quite yet. Attracted, you bet. They both keep dancing around the issue of love. Lois has just had more people hit her over the head with the fact, kind of in keeping with her usual knock out factor. Clark is more subtle and it takes a lot more to take him down. But once Lois starts raving fanatically about Superman, he'll get it.

[amberdawn]

After Identity, I don't think Lois is dancing around the issue of loving Clark anymore. I think she knows she does, but tries to keep it in the back of her mind and not think about it.

[HeartChakraBabe]

I'm not a fan of those two as a couple, but I don't mind the scenes, usually; they can be entertaining. And Identity's scenes were no exception.

[malcrew]

I loved the Clois scenes. It's obvious Lois was trying to make Clark jealous. Especially when she mentioned the new guy and said "The sparks were flying everywhere, I'm surprised the bullpen didn't burn right down" Look at her facial expression as she is saying it.

Even before that, when she said that she was going on a date and placed her hand on his chest " Sometimes when a guy likes a girl he ask's her out" I just loved that. She was obviously hinting "Why don't you ask me out already". It definitely worked getting him jealous. When he saw her in that dress and zipped it up, I'm sure he said " Dam she is so stunning!" As any guy would, he acted sarcastically because he definitely likes her and
does not want to see her with any other guy.

It is also great that he is embracing his Superman destiny more.

[Sweetie]

Love the Clois scenes.When she asked him to zip her up,he totally checked her out!!!She tried to make him jalous and it worked no doubt.She called him for help.For a moment,I thought he was going to kill the guy right there.

[zorasuperman]

lol lets not forget the clark and jimmy interaction when talking about how lois said it was her "super fast" reflexes that saved herself, and not this "superdude".

lol wat was even FUNNIER was how clark reacted of how she was able to be that strong and save herself

clark: and what about lois? she was the one who was supposedly saved. dont you think it was weird she didnt say anything about it last night?
jimmy: not really. i mean she's a nay sayer, not a non believer. she swears its was her lightning fast reflexes that came to her rescue.
clark: so youre saying this blur saved lois from being a roadkill and she didnt feel a thing?

lol anybody get the double meaning behind clarks saying. lol clark is sooo funny. he cant believe that lois didnt even feel him. hes probably laughing in his head saying typical lois. i save her life and she doesnt even ACKNOWLEDGE it in the least. at least with lana she realized someone was saving her, but with lois she has to be arrogant and say it was reflexes.

[alejandrita439]

i loved a lot clois scenes :)

[harryandginnyfanatic]

It's a little ironic Lois telling Clark that if he knew her secret he'd be the one at risk.

[Baltimore]

I must add something to this discussion which I haven't seen or remembered mentioning. It's not a Lois and Clark scene, but it could be called a clois scene because it's about them!

Who saw how uncomfortable Clark was when Oliver replied to Clark's "You didn't hear me complain when I had to wear green leather to protect your identity" by "Clark you made out with my girlfriend, man! What is there to complain about?" It was a rhetorical question so Clark did not need to answer it, but watch closely what follows next.

It was definitively an uncomfortable moment. Clark who was previously looking up at the Green Arrow, suddenly could not look at him in the face anymore and turns away just so slightly. lmao! Indeed, Clark sure didn't complain about it back in Hydro, he was all giddy and smug about it!

That's good continuity!
Even though Lois isn't in the scene, different threads run back to her character.

ITA! I also loved that he mentioned her being attacked just a few blocks away from Oliver's apartment. :D

[unfocused]

I don't consider myself a "shipper" but I really like the way Clark and Lois are slowly gaining feelings for one another this season.

[zorasuperman]

i wonder how sebastian felt and the chemistry he picked up from lois and clark; i mean maxima picked up and sensed upon it, the fortune teller, jimmy.... surely sebastian must have FELT something as well.

of course sebastian and lois havent been going out that long enough for him to be jealous; but surely he must have felt something.

[Reeve_290]

The best thing about the way Lois is being portrayed in Season 8 is that she's so arrogant and so annoying that I honestly don't think she could get any harder to watch and listen to. So in a sense I'm actually happy.

[DontCha]

that doesnt make sense?^^

You're happy because you prefer your Lois Lanes to be hard to watch and listen to?

Interesting... by those standards, I was ECSTATIC when I watched "Superman Returns"! :lol:

[harryandginnyfanatic]

There were only three scenes, which I find hard to believe as Lois was the second one with the most screen time.

[eas]

There were only three scenes, which I find hard to believe as Lois was the second one with the most screen time.

Well, it was because - for the first time in a long time - Lois actually had scenes with someone other than Clark. There were Lois scenes and then there were Clois scenes.

Personally, I preferred the "Lois" scenes... the Clois was just OK for me. But Lois's "date" with Sebastian? AWESOME... it was spot-on Iconic Lois Lane.

I thought this episode was good for both of them.

[Reeve_290]

This is ALL in my opinion:

I don't like her character at all. I think she's egotistical and annoying and she's horrible to Clark. And no - she's not "just being Lois". Lois is supposed to tease Clark but be a good friend to him and EDLois is not, given the way she's constantly putting him down. I can't ever see this Clark and this Lois getting together, I don't think they have even the slightest bit of chemistry (I'll accept that the last scene in Odyssey was a rare exception, and I enjoyed that a lot).

So what I meant by the above comment was: I spent all of Season 7 dreading Lois, in fear that she would get worse. And come Season 8 she has, but I don't think she can possibly get any more arrogant. So now I can rest easy and just try to deal with the horrible rock bottom place her character has hit.

I'm probably gonna get textually bashed for this so I'll stress again, all of the above is my opinion. I know that the general consensus of fans love Lois.

[DestinyAw8s]

^^You're entitled to your opinion. I just don't happen to agree with a word you said. Other than the fact that there are fans who love Lois...just as she is.

[Reeve_290]

Fair enough. I know I'm in a minority. In fact there's a chance I may BE the minority :p. Just from Lois' first few appearances in season 4 (which I think were her "best") I've never warmed to her.

[RaniaLovesClois]

Loved it.

[Cloisfan_90]

It's a fun Clois episode..!! Clark is obviously jealous..!! lol
