Ahhh, dammit, I was trying to ignore the blatant crazy sexism of Lois and her boyfriend-motivation, and then you had to go point it out to me anyway! Argh...SV is not a good show for femme chars. Even when the chars themselves are likeable(Chloe and Lois) the plot screws them sideways, up against a wall, and hard >_> They seem incapable of conceiving of a girl who isn't centered around a boy in some way (well, this season all the chars are centered on romance, so I guess that's not all that sexist...dang soap operas!)
The one thing about Chloe and "Freak" is that she doesn't have absolute proof Lex was behind it. Er, at least I don't think she does? The laptop's ties to LuthorCorp weren't totally clear, were they? If she had proof, then dude, why didn't she call the cops? While as the Moira situation, she did know for sure, even if Lex shut her down before she could report him. (not to mention, she'd have to explain that she got her evidence by being brainwashed into driving him off a road and robbing him...) So maybe she's trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. Or, more likely, they put "Promise" after "Freak" and needed Chloe still on speaking terms with Lex for "Promise" and therefore had to erase "Freak" from her memory. Because, geeze. You don't be the bridesmaid in a wedding where the groom kidnapped and tagged you a week before. You just don't. (I know, we've been over this before. It's just! Yargh! Stupid, stupid writing! Poor Chloe... *gives Chloe to you for cuddling*)
Clark is...I...I'm not going to think about it. He shouldn't be a murderer. He just shouldn't be. Yeesh!
And most importantly - down with ties! Lex's neck should never be cut off. Anything that shows off those collarbones is a good thing!
