    Seriously...

    I've been rewatching the series again and other than the baffling fact that a lousy character like Chloe somehow stayed on this show as long as she did, I'm seriously wondering how and why Tori Spelling ever had a career in acting... she's seriously lousy and painful to watch.

    It's obvious daddy got her the job on 90210 when she was a kid, but how did she keep getting jobs after that was over???

    It's scary and defies description, but her acting gets worse and worse as time goes by, and yet she still somehow gets hired by obviously brain dead casting people to fill prominent roles on popular shows like this.

    Lois deserves better

    8.5

    What does Lois Lane have to do to prove that she deserves to know Clark's secret? She was willing to go the distance to protect him... that's my girl.

    The fact that Clark played with Lois's feelings ticked me off. What an a-hole move !!!!!!

    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      When Clark reveals to Lois that he has X-ray vision, she covers her chest. Chloe did the same thing in "Blank" when Clark told it to her.
    • Goofs
      When Clark lifts the desk with Lois on it, it shows a shot of Clark holding his arm up above his shoulder, but then it shows him holding the desk with Lois on it and his arm is held out below his shoulder.
    • Quotes

      Clark Kent: I want you to write my story.

      Lois Lane: No offense, but I've long since graduated from the "Lonely Seeking Lonelier" classifieds.

      Clark Kent: It's a pretty interesting one.

      Lois Lane: Clark, I'm busy here. You may have forgotten about me, but the news world didn't.

      Clark Kent: After this story you're about to write, it never will.

      Lois Lane: What story?

      Clark Kent: I didn't forget to pick you up at the airport, Lois. The reason I wasn't there is because I was protecting people. I'm the Red-Blue Blur.

      Lois Lane: [laughs] That's the best you can do?

      [Lois continues to laugh as they walk into supply room]

      Clark Kent: That thing that saved you from the speeding car, that was me. That time when the barn door flew off its hinges, you thought it was a weather anomaly. I did that.

      Lois Lane: Yeah, right, what'd you do - sneeze?

      Clark Kent: Actually...

      [Lois stands on top of a desk to reach for printer paper on top of a shelf]

      Lois Lane: Clark, next time you liquid-lunch, take the rest of the day off.

      Clark Kent: Let me help you with that.

      [Clark picks up the desk with one hand for Lois to reach for the paper. Lois looks at Clark shocked and falls. Clark catches her as he lays the desk down]

      Lois Lane: Guess I should stop calling you "Smallville."
