Lois is FINALLY starting to get her reporter's intuition.
When the creepy guy came into the Talon she knew what the deal was. She was trying to phone the Sheriff when he chloroformed her.

Any 5 year old would have been able to tell that guy was a freak. I was more impressed with her knife throwing skills.

The real question....Why didn't she lock the door after he walked out?

good question. I thought she had but then there he was.
I'd also like to know why the knife throw didn't hurt the guy more.

Seriously. :rotfl:
I was a little disappointed she couldn't take him out when he came up from behind her in The Talon. I thought this girl has skillz... :confused:

yeah, most people would at least fall down after getting nailed in the heart with a 8" bowie knife.
and i agree, very nice throw indeed.

Yeah she's skilled at turning her back on bad guys. No wonder this chick will need Superman, she's as dumb as a brick! Lock the door dummy!! :rolleyes:

Lois can kill a man with one of her roundhouse kicks, I'm supprised that she didn't put up much of a struggle.

Yeah really. The writers didnt think it out at all. Surprise surprise.

I think Lois did lock it but since that guy used to live/own talon, he probably knows a way to open the door.

Lois couldnt put up a struggle, the guy had her from behind and chloroformed her. Besides, if Lois could ALWAYS defend herself she would never meet Superman, and we would never have any more superman films or tv shows since they are all about Lois getting herself into a pickle and Supes saving the day.
Lois' bark is worse than her bite

Lois can't be completely self reliant all the time.
One of the reasons she ever even existed as a character (the main one being a love interest) was for Superman to have a girl to save.
How is she ever going to need to be saved from the bad guys if she always kicks the bad guys a$$es?
Lois needs to be saved sometimes you know.
Besides she was probably a little freaked out after relizing that the bad guy that put that dead girl in the wall, just walked right in unannounced, was standing right in front of her and was acting very strangly. Not everyone thinks clearly when they come face to face with a serial killer.
He came at her from behind and caught her by surprise, that's all.;)
Lois showed him who the real bad a$$ is, and I think he got the point . . . literally!:D

My favorite part of the ep was the knife throw. Go Lois!
But yeah why was with the guy still standing. :\ The knife looked like it went pretty deep, hard and on target!

Some psychopaths have a distorted sense of pain. They don't feel the way a normal person would and if they do feel, then their brain interptrets it as something else, not exactly pain, sometimes as pleasure or something else.
And I'm not sure if Lois locked the door, but if she had, then the writers would have had to fix that plot hole and actually think of a clever way for the guy to enter, and that would be wrong, because then maybe they'd feel obliged to fill the rest of the plot holes they've been creating along these five seasons and they'd find out that 90% of their stories are impossible to fit and illogical :lol: :lol:
Oh and back on topic, in "Exposed" Lois was the one to notice the expensive shoes on the dead girl. I think her instincts have been always there, they're just being forced to wake up in weirdville ;)

Instincts, she knew about shoes are instincts. She didn't know about Chloe's mom, didn't lock her door, and was doing smoke mojo to clear the Talon, laugh out loud funny.
She didn't progress at all. She is still just a muffin peddler stuck in SV, with nothing to do. Good that Clark let her have it yet again, considering after a yr in SV she wanted to have Chloe committed to Belle Reve, no better than Lana really. Oh, well, no progression yet, and not alot of eps left. A miracle, if that, will need to happen, and still, no resume to speak of.

I think Chloe went there first and looked him up, then left the screen up when she left for either the dorm or the psycho's place. Clark pulls down the history and clicks on psycho's employee info. Chloe would have left the history behind.
That said, I think Clark's reporter skills are a little further along than Lois'. All those years watching Chloe in action has to rub off some time. Lois has some catching up to do.
Oh and I think the knife hit Psycho in his upper lung--man should woulda had to throw accurately to miss a rib! Go Lois!

Eh', the Clark factor was probably thrown in there to get Clark involved...it didn't seem to me he was actually in this episode that much...that's probably what they were thinking too. There was a lot of the women, but other than that Clark was hardly in this episode. I thought Lois hit the dude in the shoulder or something? I didn't think she actually hit him in the middle...and even if she did...I don't think she threw it that hard. Most of that knife was sticking out of his flesh, so it didn't go that far in...it probably just hurt like a *****, but I thought it was the shoulder, I don't know, I'll have to watch it again. This was a cool episode I thought, better than the average filler.
