Tess, wearing a long white coat, and Clark, wearing his work duds, enter Oliver's private jet. Clark is surprised they're using it. Tess says that LuthorCorp and Queen Industries (now there's two names that go together) are one happy conglomerate. She says, "We share all of our toys." Dirty! The pilot, a strapping, tall man, says they may have to re-route their flight to Santa Barbara because of weather. He's Captain Nichols. Clark hears that Tess has been racking up a lot of frequent-flyer miles. She says that happens when you try to charm foreigners with your global endeavor. She says she also had to make a pit stop in Geneva to see a plastic surgeon. She explains that it wasn't a "nip/tuck" [So no lady cha-cha lips? - Zach], but to remove some bio-tech hardware that Lex had installed into her. Her eyes look all right, though. "I had to have it sliced out," she says. Ouchie. Clark says he heard from Lana what she went through. "I'm sorry," he says, lamely. "What about what Lex put you through?" she asks. She inquires how many years Lex pretended to be Clark's friend. Clark thinks he and Lex did have a real friendship at one point. "You were his obsession," she explains, patiently. Yeah, Clark. What the fuck? Clark looks very uncomfortable. She says Lex wanted to be like Clark, but knew in his heart he never could be. Clark squints. Too soon! "Did Lex talk to you about me?" Clark asks. She says he kept a journal. He did what, now? With an awkward smile, Clark tries to calmly ask, "What did it say?" Tess says she's sworn to secrecy. Even though Lex is dead and was her enemy before he died. Clark has a terrible dim-bulb idea all of a sudden. "Are you thirsty?" he asks. "Whu?" she asks, surprised. Clark is sure Oliver keeps some of the "good stuff" around. Clark has no idea what the name of an actual alcohol would be. He goes looking. They come in bottles, right? Tess smiles a little at Clark's amateur move.
