** Even after getting to safety, Lois spends most of the scene terrified because Jimmy is still out on the ledge with the villain, who even ignores a chance to escape to make sure he dies.

Perry is taking the investigation a little too slow for Clark. When Perry tries to stop him, Clark snaps, "Now you listen to me, Chief. Lois and Jimmy mean a lot more to me than any anniversary edition!" and races out of the room. Granted, he may have been a bit hard on Perry, but it's still adorable.

Given the prayer of relief he offers after being taken to the unconscious heap of bodies and taking Jimmy's pulse, he was legitimately scared that he was too late.
