  A former killer turned TV Reporter tries to reveal Superman's identity while also trying to kill him. hide show

  Wow! Is it possible for someone as old as Raquel Welch to be so hot? I'm serious, she's what, 68? So this episode aired like 13 years ago, which would've made her 55 when they filmed this episode. I've never seen a 55 year old women look so hot! Especially in the scene where Superman comes to her apartment and she's wearing a tight black dress and trying to seduce him, that's my favorite scene. It's too bad that when she kisses him he starts feeling sick because of the kryptonite lipstick. She was very hot in this episode. She looked great.

  Do you agree?

• When Lois breaks the glass to get into Clark's apartment, there is a reflection of the boom-mic next to the knob. [edit]
• Goof: Kryptonite is radioactive, so why would radioactive uranium counteract it? Radiation poisoning is treated by using an agent to flush the radiactive residue from the body, and treatment of the symptoms with antibiotics. [edit]
• Diana Stride is another person who knows Superman's real identity. She saw him on the couch in his apartment, opening his shirt, exposing the suit, as well as the suits hanging in his closet. She lived to tell the world, but since she was sent to prison, no one would believe her. The Planet printed an article saying that her show was a hoax because everyone saw Superman and Clark, together thanks to Martha's Hologram. [edit]

• There are currently no notes. Add notes!

• Lois: (confessing about stealing Mayson's beeper) I did something that I shouldn't have. (hands over the beeper)
  Mayson: You stole it.
  Lois: Yeah. It's not the first time I've bent the law for a story, but I did feel bad because after I finished rationalizing it I realized that a big part of why I did it is because... I don't like you.
  Mayson: (pleased) Really? Oh God, that is such a relief! I don't like you either! [edit]
• Rolf: There is something I have always wanted to ask you: when I wear my very tightest ski pants I always get a bit... chafed. Do you find this happens to you?
  Superman: No, but it helps to be invulnerable. [edit]
• Clark: Lois, you know, I really hope someday that you learn, that sometimes what it seems like people are doing isn't what they're really doing.
  Lois: What are you, a fortune cookie? [edit]

• Title
  The fictitious show Diana works for, Top Copy, is modeled on the popular newsmagazine show of the time, Hard Copy. [edit]
• Diana: I've got you under your skin...
  
  Diana is quoting the lyrics of the song "I've Got You Under My Skin", written in 1936 by Cole Porter and recorded by such famous singers as Frank Sinatra, The Four Seasons, and Ella Fitzgerald. [edit]
• Lois: Well, she's watched a little too much Perry Mason.
  
  Perry Mason is a fictional defense attorney in a series of novels and short stories written by Erle Stanley Gardner, later adopted into a television series of the same name which ran on CBS from 1957 to 1966. [edit]
