      • Goof: When Lois is hugging Clark and sees her old self in the mirror, the old Lois has both arms around Clark. But Lois has only her left arm. Edit

      • Lois: Why is so much of your work focused on youth? Veda: (laughing cynically) You're a woman, you should know. Oh, but then you're still young and vivacious. Probably never occurs to you one day those pimply faced box boys at the supermarket won't be in such a hurry to carry your bag for you. Lois: Well, I carry my own bags. And I'm married. Veda: Well let me tell you about 'married'. Don't think a husband's eyes won't wander once the bloom is gone off the rose. You'll get old, he'll get distinguished. Success makes a man attractive, youth makes women desirable. Success is attained, youth is lost. And those are the facts of life. Edit
      • Lois: (in bed together) Wow! Clark: I know. Lois: That was . . . Clark: I mean . . . Lois: Exactly. The only thing I'd like more would be . . . Clark: More? Lois: Yes. Clark: You know, we could still make those reservations in Hawaii. Lois: We are not leaving this room. Edit
      • Lois: (making out with Clark in the Daily Planet elevator) How are we going to make it through the day? You'd think after two weeks... Clark: No, we waited so much longer than two weeks. Lois: So it was worth it, then? The wait, I mean? Clark: Lois, it was perfect. It was better than perfect. At least, it was for me...? Lois: Clark, it was super! Edit
