Trivia:

Three endings to this episode were filmed. The first ending ended with "Clark....," and it was shown at the tail end of "And The Answer Is." Strangely, "...We Have A Lot To Talk About", the third season premiere, opened with Lois saying "Who's asking, Clark or Superman?" There was also a third ending, with Lois saying "Yes," that was never used. All of these endings were filmed for this episode, and the decision to use the "Clark..." was made at the last minute.

Quotes:

Perry White: Hey Jimmy, that dress Lois has on, didn't she have that on yesterday?
Jimmy Olsen: I don't know.
Perry White: Now, Jimmy, if you want to be a newspaperman you gotta be observant. Now, doesn't Clark look a little... haggard to you?
Jimmy Olsen: Yeah.
Perry White: You know, like he's been up all night worrying about something. Like a dog trapped in a cage?
Jimmy Olsen: Yeah, I guess.
Perry White: You know what I think?
Jimmy Olsen: What?
Perry White: I think they eloped.
