Lois/Clark Scenes

[Chlollie]

Thought they where good.

[megsy]

i can't wait to see them.

[hanna1804]

The scene at the Talon was so good, sad but beautiful, and it was a little surprising to see Lois open up to Clark about how she feels about the whole situation. I mean she mentioned her childhood and her relationship with her father, and then Oliver ! It's not so often that we see this kind of scene between them and it was refreshing :) It was a really well played scene, especially from Erica !
One thing that I don't like about Clark (or Tom), is when he hugs someone, and here it was Lois, he's a little "cold", I mean he doesn't seem to be comfortable with it, and it's not because it's Lois, he's like that in general :(

[Ilovebeinglost]

That scene was beautiful. At the end she jokingly said, who needs rich and famous when I've got you.

[aqgalaxy]

Yeah it was very sweet, but Clark's face at the end of the scene I dunno. But this scene gave of a brother-sisterly vibe to me. Brother showing comfort to a sister who's devastated over a breakup.

[freefall]

It's so totally my new top Clois scene ever. They've had some amazing moments together before, but this one is just so powerful and heartbreaking. I just love how Clark simply took her in his arms and Lois buried herself in his embrace. This is the first time ever that Lois fully let her guard down with Clark and displayed the full extent of her emotions, she had never, ever cried in front of anyone before this. Not even with Oliver, with whom she still managed to hold back her tears.

I agree that's exactly what it is...;)

He isn't like that with Chloe or Lana. He isn't close with Lois as he is with those two.

[harryandginnyfanatic]

I thought Lois's last line was a nice touch.

[Tottally ~ Free]

cute ..cute and more cute.

[tariksam]

It was great, Tom and especially Erica were really good on this scene.....is ironic that when Clana is falling down Clois is starting to get stronger, to have a stronger bond....mmmm just in the half of the season...mmmm just around this time season 6 was going upside down with the resurfacing of the Clana in Labyrinth

Maybe Gough wasn't bluffing at all ;)

[Tottally ~ Free]

Maybe Gough wasn't bluffing at all ;)

oh god..don't ginx it :rotfl:

just messin :p

[aqgalaxy]

The only thing that ruined this IMO is that after this scene, Lois goes "...while I can hang out with you" then ALMiles had Clana begin their real shot... I think Lois scared Clark back to Lana. At least that's what it seemed with how they did it.

But I have to say I like Clois

[Kalista]

Ehh, I'm not feeling the Clois scene. I'v seen better Clois scenes, like in Sneeze and Krypto.

[aqgalaxy]

Ehh, I'm not feeling the Clois scene. I'v seen better.
The only thing I sort of didn't like is that Lois basically told Clark Kent how she doesn't want to be treated as second in someone's life anymore, how she doesn't want to share someone and I know it's ironic that she does this with Superman, making her cry and such over that, IMO isn't irony, she's serious. And I don't know how that would change.

[Tottally ~ Free]

then ALMiles had Clana begin their real shot...

not really sure how clark basicly saying were never gonna work out and NO i don't think your the 'ONE' but lets teqnically stay together ... and try and be friends... is a real shot ..but whatever :\

[myankskent]

And I don't know how that would change.

Lois being serious about what she says is supposed to be the case. It's called "dramatic irony".

dramatic irony:when the reader or audience knows information that the character does not know, and thereby witnesses the impact of what the character says or does. There is a discrepancy between what the reader knows, and what the character believes to be true.

We know that in the future, Lois will be able to deal with Clark leading a double life, even though Lois says, at the moment, that she wouldn't be able to deal with it.

Well like someone point out....the girl is 21...and Oliver was not exactly offering "stability" he was basically offering a "weekend" relationship. And this breakdown is not unusual in Lois Lane, even with 30 years she has the same breakdown with Clark and that's why he decides to erase her memory on Superman II.

The difference between Clark and Oliver is that Lois will really really loves Clark, she didn't love Oliver enough and she knows it to be in THAT kind of relationship. When you are truly in love you try to work it out. And notice how she KNOWS she will end up with her heart broken, she KNOWS Oliver and her are not meant to be and says it....with Clark she never has this problem, she commits herself completely to Clark and Superman

We know that in the future, Lois will be able to deal with Clark leading a double life, even though Lois says, at the moment, that she wouldn't be able to deal with it.

Lois was basically her underestimating herself cause she says she doesn't THINK she could do it....she is giving up cause as I said she knows that her love for Oliver is not stronger enough

I understand that but it looks incredibly stupid and bad on her character IMO.Writing like that makes it look like that Lois doesnt know herself at all.It makes her look like a shallow person or something.This also reflects terribly bad on the Clark/Lois relationship IMO.

[tariksam]

Lol Did I see the wrong episode or the bipoler here is Lana "who can't look herself in the mirror" , and the last few epsidoes reflects terribly bad on the Clark/Lana relationship IMO...

"It makes her look like a shallow person or something."....isn't that Lana??? that well as long she is having sex and having a man kiss the floor she pass by she doens't question a thing?? even when a day ago that man was not acting like that AT ALL???

[theotherJane]

I understand that but it looks incredibly stupid and bad on her character IMO.Writing like that makes it look like that Lois doesnt know herself at all.It makes her look like a shallow person or something.This also reflects terribly bad on the Clark/Lois relationship IMO.

Yeah, but she said the same thing about being a journalist. Back in season 4, she said there's no way she'd ever consider getting into journalism.
AlMiles like to do this kind of thing. Before the 7th season began, they've said that these characters are nowhere near their iconic destinies.

[Kara_Zor-El]

Are you kidding? I thought it was cute. First Lois says that she'll NEVER be a journalist...which of course she is now doing. Then she says she'll never date a guy she works with (so that's where that rule came from) and now this? It's perfect for her character. She always had herself perfectly thought out and knew who she was but when she falls for Superman, everything turns upside down in her world. They love each so much in the future that they break their own rules and re-evaluate each other to be with each other. It's perfect because we are getting to see how Lois is getting to that point of being to set in her ways before it goes all topsy turvy with Supes.

[myankskent]

I understand that but it looks incredibly stupid and bad on her character IMO.Writing like that makes it look like that Lois doesnt know herself at all.It makes her look like a shallow person or something.This also reflects terribly bad on the Clark/Lois relationship IMO.

IMO, what this reflects is a Lois who is hurt emotionally for one of the first times this series. I don't think that it really has anything to do with the Clois relationship since Lois is only talking about her relationship with Oliver. I think that I would agree that what Lois said makes her relationship with Oliver look bad but I don't see how this relates to Clois, aside from the irony aspect of it having to do with the dual identity thing. As a matter of fact, I think that if anything, it makes the future Clois relationship look good since by that point, Lois will try to embrace the dual identity thing for Clark since she will love him more than she ever did Oliver. JMHO.

[Lara Lane]

I understand that but it looks incredibly stupid and bad on her character IMO.Writing like that makes it look like that Lois doesnt know herself at all.It makes her look like a shallow person or something.This also reflects terribly bad on the Clark/Lois relationship IMO.

Nope, it only reflects most people (specially young ones) don't know themselves in many situations until they face them and then discover their strengths and failures.

Lois will face that situation in the future, and will discover she is able, after all, to deal with it.

Edit: OR, looking at it on the lighter side... TPTB think that all these ironies are amusing... how one character says they'll never do this or that and that's exactly what they end up doing. Yeah Almiles, look at us, we're dying of laughter here...

[jazel]

Didn't see the epi, but I saw the clip.
Looking forward to her interactions w/ GA/Ollie.
ED, is further cementing herself, as the most interesting character for me.........love her.:D
What I find really interesting, was all the things she said to
Clark. She sounded alot like Clark, and actually addressed his own fears/concerns, regarding love and destiny. The hug was perfect. Rubbing her back soothingly, and rocking her in his arms. Something I've rarely, if never, seen him do w/ Lana, or Chloe. Love how she buried her face in his shoulder for comfort. The line was perfect, more or less complimenting CK, in tongue and cheeky sort of way, considering it did come from Lois.lol

[Jade4813]

Oh, I don't know...I mean, I think that the SV writers can be criticized for many things, including tongue-in-cheek comments, misuse of dramatic irony, and the occasional misplaced anvillious statement.

Here, I don't know that it's a matter of "Lois doesn't know herself at all" in a negative way. Things change when you meet the person you want to spent the rest of your life with. I mean, it's not that unusual, to think in foresight (not the word I want to use, but give me a break; my brain is dead) that you COULD put up with that or that you'd be okay with dealing with that.

And everyone has those things that they don't think that they could deal with. For example, I never really thought I could deal with living someone at all. I hate people touching my stuff. I get annoyed having to compromise with others all the time. ;) But, you get into a relationship, and you learn that those things you never really thought you could deal with, you can adapt because they things you get that you never thought you'd have outweigh those other things.

I don't think that made sense.

I have a friend who swore for years that she'd never be able to date, let alone marry, a divorcee. "I could never stand to look into his eyes and see someone else there." Now she's engaged to a man who was married for five years to someone else.

I don't think she could be engaged to him now if she ever DID look into his eyes and see the memory of his former wife there (as in, he's comparing her to Anna or whatever). But when I asked her about it, she said it's not an issue now. The situation is different than she'd ever supposed it to be, not her reaction to it.

From what I've read in the last few minutes about this scene, I suspect Lois is in much the same boat. If she were to be in that situation in the future where she was always put second, always left behind, by someone to whom she was a second thought, she wouldn't be able to handle it. She imagines that this is the situation that she would be put into with anyone who had that greater destiny. But her relationship with Clark in the future won't be like that. He's going to have to fly off to save the world, but Lois won't be just an afterthought in his life, always "left behind" in both a figurative and literal sense.

The situation will be different in a way she has no way to expect. Yet. And so she cannot yet suppose how she will react to a situation she has yet to be able to foresee.

That's the difference, as I see it.

[double L]

Their scenes are always good together, they have so much natural chemistry. As opposed to the other one, where its just forced angst.

[tariksam]

Quoted for true...more emotion in that scene than in the "forced" reunion

[freefall]

By confessing how she felt about Oliver and her honesty about not wanting to be left behind again, Lois actually showed just how strong she is in facing her own self. It's a great example of self-awareness and self-reflection.

She doesn't make excuses for it and she fully understands how his calling is greater than hers. If either of them had believed they were truly the ones for each other, they'd fight harder for it. But both of them know it just wouldn't work, and I'd have to commend them for letting go instead of hanging onto a doomed relationship.

Well, in the movies MK Lois said pretty much the same thing and since AlMiles take the movie more as a parameter than the comics I cant say Im surprised.

[tariksam]

But see then MK's Lois is not the real Lois Lane cause she doesn't want to deal with that :rolleyes: And Margott Kidder was REALLY serious

[ClarksGal]

I think Lois scared Clark back to Lana.

I think so too, but there was just loads of irony all over the place. Between Lois not thinking she can handle the double life, Clark realizing how hard it is for someone to handle the double life and giving Lana another chance, Clark telling Ollie that maybe someday Lois will be able to handle the double life thing. Lots of "hm"s in there.

The scene between Lois and Clark was amazing. She really opened up to him in a way that she never had before, it's like they really moved a step closer to each other. It was totally on a friendship level I think, but that's great! I don't want to see them in love right now. This was really the first time I saw Lois really, really appreciate Clark. I haven't always felt a lot of chemistry between Clark and Lois in Smallville...I have seen glimpses of it here and there, but sometimes I have thought that this Lois was too hard on Clark. But I really loved their friendship today. :) Yay!

[Kal-ed]

yup, like Clark saying he would never wear thights, or that he´s afraid of hights.

And Lois saying she´d die before being a reporter.

[harryandginnyfanatic]

Well, in the movies MK Lois said pretty much the same thing and since AlMiles take the movie more as a parameter than the comics I cant say Im surprised.

Difference is Clark can't take Lois's pain away with a memory wipe kiss like Reeve's Clark did.

[freefall]

Well, in the movies MK Lois said pretty much the same thing and since AlMiles take the movie more as a parameter than the comics I cant say Im surprised.

I believe even Lois from the comics and LnC did face the same issues themselves, I think they are very valid issues and the fear is very real. It made the character even more honest IMO, being in a relationship with a guy who's going to be constantly off to save the world is very, very hard work IMO.

This show has always hinged on the idea that a hero's road would always be a lonely one, you're always destined to be alone. And Oliver is simply just isn't ready yet to give a part of himself to the woman he loves that would always be hers alone, but in the future BOTH him and Clark would be able to do that.

It's important for her to know that, because with that assurance it doesn't matter if he's lightyears away from her trying to save the world, she would still feel it's as if he's there for and with her, she knows that he'd also try his hardest to come home to her. I've just read a Superman comic where Clark was off battling Imperiex and Mongul during Christmas Eve, and Lois was waiting home thinking just how much she wished that he was there with her at that moment -- "I just want to hold my husband in my arms and tell him I loved him."

[harryandginnyfanatic]

Ollie is alot like Bruce Wayne. Outside of his crime fighting duties he really doesn't have much of a life.

It's different with Clark in the future because he wants to do both.

[harryandginnyfanatic]

Ollie still has the chance of a lifetime love.

I think it only works because Dinah is a super hero too. They share that part of their lives together.

[Mr. Clark Kent27]

Ahh, Clark was so nice to hug her, and Lois hugged back! They are getting closer!

[ninthdegree]

That was amazing! I'm still grinning!

[sabi908]

She opened up so much to him...she cried on his shoulder.

That was a great moment of vulnerability there from someone who always acts so strong

[jazel]

He rubbed her back, it was too sweet ;)

----- Added 59 Seconds later -----


That was amazing! I'm still grinning!

me TOO, that I'm NOT even caring what Lois naysayers are, or aren't saying.:lol:

[double L]

This scene with Lois and Clark was better than every scene he has had with Lana on the entire show.

[jimmyolsenblues]

I did love the clois hug, clark being there for her was touching.

[niki]

Especially when she was crying and then immediately starting to chuckle and smile as soon as he was hugging her. Awwwww :)

[TaraLittle]

This scene with Lois and Clark was better than every scene he has had with Lana on the entire show.

I agree. I loved that sceen. Lois really opened up to Clark, which is a big steep for a girl who always has her walls up so high. I also liked how Clark comforted her. Maybe by this little sceen between them, they'll be hangging out together more, just how Lois said, "Why be with hot, rich, and famous, when I can hang out with you?" I LOVED that line! :):):)

[minerva73]

That scene was great. This seaosn, I thought that Lois was drifting away from Clark especially in "Wrath" when she and Clark talked in the hospital, but that scene was amazing.

That Clois hug really was amazing. One of the best Clois scenes since "Crimson" IMO. :D I thought something like that would never happen so soon.

[skylar]

It was so sweet. Clark hugging Lois when she broke down made me start to cry. Tom and Erica did a very good job tonight.

[ninthdegree]

I loved how he was rubbing her back:D

[paolinki25]

A beautiful, tender scene. It's about damn time these two start having this sort of scenes and getting closer.

[freefall]

I loved how he was rubbing her back:D

I noticed that too! It's just too cute for words. :D

[6-Super-Man -5]

I was touched, seems they are getting closer and closer

[sabi908]

I love how he shows more emotions to Lois then any other girl

[miks]

I really didn't like the Clois scene. Not because I'm a Chlarker or because I never want to see this Lois Lane and Clark Kent together, but because ever since Lois has come to Smallville, her and Clark have not been very close. So when the HELL did they start hugging and crying and comforting each other?! I felt Erica did a great job acting and it was believable if I'd never seen them interact before, but I have and it seemed forced. I could be totally off base here, but any thoughts?:confused:

[niki]

Hmm, I see your point, but at the same time (especially since I've been watching the older seasons on DVD lately), I can definitely see the progression of them getting closer. They lived together for a bit and all, and I can definitely see their awkwardness and the way they tease each other.

But for some odd reason I've also noticed that when it comes to relationship chats, they are very sympathetic towards each other, so in this way it didn't really seem forced.

[Ilovebeinglost]

I thought it was fantastic. Clark wanted to check on her and she for the first time opened her heart to him. She's never opened up to anyone like that before but the opportunity was there and it was great to see that side of Lois.

Did not look forced to me.

[freefall]

Lois and Clark simply have a completely dynamic from the other relationships they both have with other people, that's all. It doesn't make their relationship any lesser and the others better.

[sabi908]

so much for halibut and fudge =P

[superspider02]

Yea it was a pretty good clark and lois scene. Erica acted pretty well in it.

[miks]

I'm not saying it makes it better or less, but, IMO, it seemed awkward and uncomfortable. I remember the living together part, but when they talked it wasn't serious like this. This scene was dead serious, talking about her father and everything. Why would she talk to Clark? Why wouldn't she talk to Chloe first? It just seems that this was all a little too personal to be talking to Clark about.

[lois_lane-kent]

They've always been close, but in a bro/sis sort of way. The two of them care very much for each other (as friends at the moment), but it doesn't stop them from teasing each other. I didn't find it odd that they had that emotional scene - she lived with him for the longest time, they'd "bonded."

I also know from experience that sometimes it's easier to talk to other people than someone who's so close to you (Chloe).

It's not like she intended to talk to Clark about it...he came to comfort her asking how she was doing...and she couldnt hold back and poured her heart out to him.

[miks]

I dunno, maybe I'm different that way. But if a guy I hardly ever confided in came in and asked me how I was doing, I wouldn't tell him my life story *shrugs*

[minerva73]

But they were close in "Crimson". :( In all seriousness, is Clark supposed to let someone cry out to him and tell him all about their problems and not offer the least bit of support? If that's true, then what Ollie said was completely right. But Clark's not like that. He's willing to offer support to anyone who's basically degrading themselves or who will cry out to them in desparity (sp?).

[lois_lane-kent]

I dunno, maybe I'm different that way. But if a guy I hardly ever confided in came in and asked me how I was doing, I wouldn't tell him my life story *shrugs*
Most Clark/Lois scenes do have them confiding in each other though. Even from the intro of Lois, she's blabbering on and on about herself to Clark (who has amnesia and he's a stranger to her). They're not all teary-eyed, but they usually reveal something about themselves or how they're feeling to each other.

[sabi908]

The scene in that eppy where she says that harley line...

that was a pretty personal convo between the two

[miks]

I understand that she let it go or whatnot, what I don't get is why it was Clark? Because we needed a Clois scene? I'm sorry but if I just dumped my love I'm going to my best friend, who is Chloe, I assume. But I guess I kind of get that she was in the apt by herself and Clark came over and she couldn't hold it in. I'm just saying it was just weird for me. The acting was great, the hug was strange, but all of Clark's hugs are, and it was a brotherly sisterly moment, but it still felt weird, IMO.

[niki]

And there's also that scene with the guy ... wow, I don't even remember what it's called. But from season 6, where she knew that guy that Lex was basically controlling, and she got very emotional and didn't she tell Clark about her past with him too? Shows that she really can confide in him, as much as she likes to tease him.

yea she's really comfortable around him...she doesnt hold back around him

[lois_lane-kent]

^ The episode was "Prototype". :)

[niki]

Ahh I knew it started with a P, haha. Thanks :)
But yesh, that episode really showed how comfortable Lois is in sharing her innermost feelings with Clarky-boy.

[Ilovebeinglost]

Yes you're right it was in Prototype, Wes. Keenan was a close friend and Lois opened up to Clark back then as well.

[LovelyLoisLane]

She's opened up to Clark like this before, I think he makes her comfortable to do that. She did it way back in 'Lucy', then shook her head as if she couldn't believe she'd just say that to him. She did it again at the end of Lucy, and then again in Aqua.

It doesn't seem strange to me at all. I'd LOVE to have the cousins comforting each other, but I think maybe Lois doesn't want Chloe to know she's weak, she wants to be strong in the eyes of her cousin. Which seems to be working as per Chloe's tearfelt confession in 'Phantom'

Chloe - Come on Lois, you're the strongest girl I know!

Lois knows Clark has his own emotional weakness and maybe she isn't so worried about being such a hard @ss with him. I don't think it was forced at all, it was very well written, well acted, beautiful music and the whole moment was lovely. It was very nice, and it moved me to tears.

[miks]

I think it was the crying and the hugging part that made me thing "What the hell is this?"

[Odysseus]

I thought it was one of the most Cloisy scenes ever. Lois was fighting her broken hearted feelings and trying to hide it, but eventually she couldn't, and poured it out to Clark. This shows how far they've come since they've met. In "Crusade" Lois would've never let Clark see this side of her. But by now their relationship has progressed to the point where, although they are not romantically attracted (yet), they both clearly care very deeply about each other.

And Erica's acting was top-knotch. She really made me feel sorry for Lois when she started to cry.

[svtwamedfan05]

Loved this scene so much. It definitely has become one of my favorite scenes of the entire series.

[Lexgirl33]

ya for Clois!

[jazel]

her and Clark have not been very close. So when the HELL did they start hugging and crying and comforting each other?!

they did live together, for a year, that should count for something.:p
their 1st hug, was before Chloe was found alive, although it was a cover hug.:lol:
you might rewatch Lucy--->S4, to see the 'true' Clois frienship's beginning.
they have hugged, on more than a few occasions (won't name them all), recently when Biz grabbed Lo's butt, and she 'tried' to comfort him, over Lana's supposed death.
It's exhausting, how many people 'claim' Clark is so in love with Chloe. It's perfectly acceptable, to completey distort scenes to their satisfaction. AND apparently, he shouldn't be any where near Lois.:lol:

[LovelyLoisLane]

I love how he shows more emotions to Lois then any other girl


I wouldn't say that is true, he's very loving with Chloe as well.

It was a very touching scene tonight though.

[galatians221]

I loved seeing Clark and Lois in an emotional scene and there was no wisecracking or Lois denigrating Clark by calling him "Smallville" or "Farm Boy". She poured her heart out to him and then they hugged. The topic was clearly previewing their future relationship. Unfortunately, Lana and Clark semi reconciliated and that was disappointing. I'd love to see both Lois and Clark broken up, devastated and just becoming friends, knowing that an intimate relationship is a long way away. I'd like to see Lois and Clark have a similar relationship that Chloe and Clark has. Of course, I want the series to end and reappear as Superman or Metropolis. This soap opera has gone on too long and I'm wanting to see the Man of Steel, not the same old farm boy moping over his girl. It's old and tired and it's time to move on or shut it down.

[jazzylg]

Yea, it was about time Lois and Clark had a truly dramatic scene, and not a childish bickering match. It shows that finally the writers are starting to get past this charade of them hating each other 24/7/:)

[jazzylg]

It's about time. For the hope of humanity, end clana now!:mad::mad:

[Who]

Best scene of the episode.

[ginnyfan]

Well it's official. Clark Kent is better than ice cream. :D

[sherban1988]

SPOLIERS


Absolutely LOVED the Talon scene. She told Clark all the things she thought she couldn't do because of Ollie's dual life, and that's exactly what she'll do with Clark when they get married.
The whole "I can't share him with the rest of the world" was very nicely put in, since the exact oposite conversation happens in the comics when Clark regains his powers after one year of being normal "I knew who you were when i married you. It's what you are. It's part of why i love you."

sometimes when a girl gets her heart broken, she needs to cry on another guys shoulder to know they aren't all bad.

Clark is a good guy and a good friend, even to people he barely knows. It makes sense that he would comfort her. Clark is such a great guy. *huggles clark*

[samanta]

I liked some part of it but other parts seemed to forced to me. Like they were trying to put too much clois and foreshadowing in one scene.

[Aries83]

So when the HELL did they start hugging and crying and comforting each other?!

Right then and there. Clark did seem caught off guard by it, but since he's a nice guy, of course he would comfort her like that. Next week, we'll probably get some bogus line from Lois about how she didn't mean it or how she was trying to act tough, but they'll both know better.

I really enjoyed the scene, not only because it was something new for ED and even for Lois, but because I'm so sick of Clana that I'd rather see Lois and Clark's relationship progress further because it's at least new and interesting; something that Clana isn't.

[Joelito]

Yeah, I like the Clois moment, too.
I think both were vulnerable to each other in that moment.

[eas]

It wasn't out of left field at all. From season 4, we've seen the two of them have their brand "loft scenes". LOL

They've had a ton of private moments - just the two of them - where they have a nice heart to heart. "Lucy", "Blank", "Commencement", "Blank", "Aqua", "Exposed", "Oracle", "Hydro", "Crimson", etc.

And that's not counting the times they bumped into each other and talked frankly while she lived with him. Or the times they've mentioned each other while the other's not onscreen. Clark has been described as one of Lois's best friends (by Ollie) and Clark never negated it.

So, my point is that it makes perfect sense that Clark would stop by to check on her & then have Lois break down in front of him. And she didn't start by crying to being with - it was gradual as the conversation went on. Clark knows her past with the General better than anyone (other than Chloe) and it's not a far stretch that Lois would let him on this side of her.

And why not Chloe? Who is to say that she didn't already confide in Chloe? Maybe they had a huge heart-to-heart regarding the break-up & then Chloe had to go?

[ClareKent]

I didn't see anything weird about Clark conforting Lois, if you rewatch some eps, you'll see that's become pretty normal between the two of them, so I find it pretty nice and sweet.

[LoisJoanneKent]

Well, it was a scene full of forshadowing. She's opening up about not being able to handle something with the person who she will be handling it with. Little by little, they are opening up to each other. Remember, in the future they are not only husband and wife, they are also best friends.

[seara]

One question, Why EDLois hair always seems different and, prettier when the scene is shot from behind? Does she have a body double or is just Oliver eyes?

[LoisJoanneKent]

Hmmm...I haven't really noticed this. I don't think she has a body double....

[Tottally ~ Free]

what? are you serious?

they have had plenty of comforting scene's. there friends ...and she was really upset ..I don't see anything forced there

[supergirl28]

it was a greart scene between them. to me it shows that no matter how diffrent those two are, they still care about one another.

[EricaIsGr8t]

This is not the first time these two have had a heart to heart about relationships. Usually it's Lois giving Clark the advise and sympathetic ear, it's about time he returned the favour.

[EricaIsGr8t]

How there can still be any doubt that these two belong together boggles my mind!!! The Clois scene was Perfection.

[Rockinon7]

Lois doesn't open up to just anyone. She must think a lot of Clark, even if she masks it with Sarcasm. I think the show is showing a progression of Lois and Clark's relationship as a growing friendship, which is way cool.

I only wish there were more Chloe/Clark/Lois scenes. The three are pretty much awesome!

[Kara_Zor-El]

Well it's official. Clark Kent is better than ice cream. :D

Haha! So true, I love that comment.

[Jephael]

This scene sort of reminded me of when Clark comforted Lana after learning about Whitney's death, except that was a little more personal for obvious reasons.

I really love those tender moments between Clark and Lois though. She cracked me up in "Crimson" when she was pouting while still under the effects of that kryptonite lipstick. Like Jimmy said in that ep, it's kinda weird seeing her act like a girl!

[LoisL]

This scene sort of reminded me of when Clark comforted Lana after learning about Whitney's death, except that was a little more personal for obvious reasons.

I remember really liking that scene way back when. :) A big difference is in the girls' reactions; I love how Lois stopped crying, smiled in a warmed-heart way, tried a laughing joke, and rubbed her face against his shoulder in friendly contentment --helping her battle off recurring tears.

I say "friendly" as in non-romantic, non-greedy/grasping, simple acceptance of comfort. Very sweet. I think Lois also somehow retained something of her great strength: she seemed to me heartbroken, afraid and vulnerable, rather than devastated, terrified and desperate. Maybe that's what you mean by the Clois hug being less personal? Sorry, I'm no good at grasping the obvious.

[Vergon6]

It was a nice scene, and without anything too over the top in terms of the dialogue. Clark would have been a real jerk if hadn't hugged her. A good scene between friends. I am not rooting for any particular relationships on this show, but even I was yelling at the screen, "just hug her already" lol

[Nowhere08]

It was soooooo sweet,maybe we'll see something better in fracture...(crosses fingers). Although that may not be possible.

[Alexander III]

They should have sex in that scene, put that blue ring on Clark!

[Jade4813]

I do think that this was one of my favorite scenes of the entire series. But since someone asked a question, thought I'd try my hand at a reply.


One question, Why EDLois hair always seems different and, prettier when the scene is shot from behind? Does she have a body double or is just Oliver eyes?

Honestly, I can't say this for CERTAIN because while I've been on some movie sets, I've never been on the set of a TV show. But, at least on the things I've seen, when they have a scene that has multiple perspectives - that is, a lot of shots of one person's face close-up and the other person's back and vice versa - they'll shoot the scene at least twice. They can't have the two cameras shooting at the same time, or the opposite camera will be in the shot. (I vaguely remember watching an Easter Egg or something for Moulin Rouge and NK said that every time this happened with EM - where she would be singing and the camera would be to his back, he would be making faces at her the whole time, trying to get her to laugh. The only way he could get away with this is because there was no other camera on stage to film his face.)

So it's entirely possible that, no, Lois didn't have a body double (that would be a strange thing to do, unless she had something huge happen in her personal life and had to race away from the set early - which we probably would have heard about). They probably just redid her hair when they reset to do the scene again. Considering that, depending on how many takes the director wants/needs per scene, these actors could be going at it for hours at a time, they do occasionally need to retouch the makeup or hair.

Anyway, don't take this as the gospel truth or anything, because, like I said, I've not been on a tv set yet. But that's the way I've seen it done in the movies, so that's my best guess.

[kryptonaidxh]

That scene was beautiful. At the end she jokingly said, who needs rich and famous when I've got you.

:)Oh Yes!, that was my favorite. A nice Clois scene! finally:)
it was really touching and beautiful how Lois broke and talked Clark about her feelings and she opened with him, his future soulmate, when we know Lois always looks so strong and independent, and how Clark felt sad for her and he was comprensive and nice with that hug to Lois, for a moment he could see a sensitive side of Lois that he never saw before, and Lois was a girl for once and she left Clark enter to her deep and feminin side., it was awesome.:)

[LoveHurts38]

Lois doesn't open up to just anyone. She must think a lot of Clark, even if she masks it with Sarcasm. I think the show is showing a progression of Lois and Clark's relationship as a growing friendship, which is way cool.

Agree:D Lois only opens up to Martha, Chloe and Clark anyways:)

So true, and I would like to see those 3 in some more scenes together.

[Lostfan588]

It was a cute scene. I liked it.

It's true.

Body doubles are tricky and pose a lot of problems - Durance just has a nice back of the head.

[4Clana]

Loved this scene so much. It definitely has become one of my favorite scenes of the entire series.
Same here, I think it's the first time watching Smallville where I got a feeling of wow this is something that goes beyond the show Smallville and connects to the feel of the movies. Now, Clark has done a lot of good things on the show but this is the first time I've thought, that's Superman! It's odd because it's not as though he is doing something really big, saving the world in that scene. But here he is in the scene holding Lois, talking to her, how he deals with her, comforts her, Clark has never come off as Supermanly as he has in this scene. The interaction, everything was just right. A very memorable scene.

[borednow]

Well it's official. Clark Kent is better than ice cream. :D
don't get me singing Sarah. :)


I dunno, maybe I'm different that way. But if a guy I hardly ever confided in came in and asked me how I was doing, I wouldn't tell him my life story *shrugs*
It is worth noting that Clark was also the person to whom she confided about thinking she was in love with Oliver in the first place. He was the one she went to when she first thought he was the Green Arrow and all. Perhaps it's symmetry? Perhaps it matches with the fact that I've seen Lois confide a lot more in Clark then I've seen her confide in Chloe. The cousins are close, but... neither seems to be opening up to each other that much any more, if they ever did. Perhaps both feel the need to be strong in the eyes of the other, or maybe Al/Miles don't feel the need to expand on their established relationship, who knows? Either way, Lois confides in Clark a lot, and when occasionally the tables turn Lois can get Clark to confide a bit in her as well. It's pretty well established, this is just probably the most blatant example, which just suggests they have grown even closer. :)
