Agreed. I always thought Lois’s advice to Chloe was to say, “Hey, don’t be so judgemental tiill you find out why.” But here, she’s actually given a why and she calls b.s. on it.
And it’s a call I agree with. Lying isn’t done to protect other people as much as it’s done to protect oneself. Because if Lana, Chloe, Lex (and Pete before that reveal) knew, they would have been able to make better decisions about how to keep themselves safe.
And I hope they expand on this topic to illustrate why Clark will open up to Lois in the way he hasn’t to the non-superheroes in his life. Everyone has a rght to self preservation, even if it means keeping secrets. However, I hope Lois will be the one to open his eyes on the importance of people being able to make informed decisions about their lives.
