->''"Think about that: you're the first woman captain of any science fiction event--in ''anything'', really--of substance. And everything's coasting along fine. Year one, year two, year three. End of year three, you let go of one actor and you hire another. The new actress, Jeri Ryan, comes in, playing Seven of Nine. And all of a sudden the T&A element comes in. So as a woman captain, you're thinking, wow, look what I've done for women all across the globe, one step forward for women's rights. And then they bring ''[[MsFanservice this]]'' in?! Everything I've worked for has been erased by what you've done by bringing in this character! ...And so she was pissed. She ''stayed'' pissed for Season Four, Five Six, ''and'' Seven."''

Did he sit there and go “well, if I had [[CloningBlues a dumb clone]], he’d [[DamselInDistress want to bang Lacey Warfield]] after seeing her picture on a newspaper, so I’m gonna just stand out here until he shows up?” He’s a clone of Clark, so wouldn’t he go after Lois with screwed-up clone memories or something? Why Lacey? Other than that it’s convenient for the plot?\\

They really think Lana [[PuritySue is uncontradictory, pure, and worthy of being loved by EVERYONE.]] Clark has had, what, two girlfriends? Lana has had, what, six, seven boys?
