The Daily Planet is financially troubled and Lex buys the newspaper to get closer to Lois. After saving everyone's jobs, he makes some changes : Jack and Jimmy are now working downstairs in the printing room, and hires a young just graduated man named Chip to be Perry's boss. Perry gets really mad and leaves the Planet. Lex plants a bomb in the Planet which explodes. He blames Jack, who gets arrested. Lex proposes to Lois, and Clark tells her he loves her, but she says that loves him too but only as a friend.
