“So what do you have on the xxx-Spoilers Removed for Your Protection-xxx?” Perry asked, quite logically.

Beside her, Clark stilled. Lois flushed. “Nothing yet…” How stupid of them to forget something so obvious! You’re no cub reporter, still wet behind the ears! she chided herself. And you’re not a totally self-involved boy-crazy teenager, either! she added, totally ashamed that her personal crises had interfered with her work. “I’m sorry; we’ve been too focused on…” She looked over helplessly at Clark. “…on Mitchener.”

Where’s that remarkable team I remember so well?”

Perry’s words made her want to leap up in angry defense… but he was absolutely right. Clark kept silent beside her. He knew it as well as she.
