"General!" Lois stomped her foot as her father took a seat at his desk.
"Will you get in my office and quit making a damn scene?!" Lois quickly shut the office door and crossed her arms waiting for her father to give her an answer. General Lane gave his daughter a stern look. "And quit acting like you're still in high school. That face doesn't work anymore."
Lois burrowed her brows at her father.
She side glanced Jimmy motioning that it was his turn. He ignored her. Lois painfully jabbed him in the arm with her pin. Jimmy quickly nudged her back.
Lois gave up, "General, you have to do something."
"Why should I get involved in this? I've already heard. Chloe Sullivan is a threat to National Security."
"No," Jimmy said loudly slamming a manila folder onto the General's desk, "Sir," Jimmy quickly added after the look General Lane gave him. "I mean, yeah, Chloe hacked high security government databases. But she was just getting dirt on Lex Luther. He was the reason she was arrested. He made the call to have her taken in."
The General started to sift through the surveillance photos and documents on Lex. "Chloe is a big girl, she made her own problems. Why would the NSA care about what I would have to say on the matter?"
"General, you and I both know you can pull strings." Lois gave her father a deadly look, "If you won't do this for Chloe then do this for me. Please, she was only doing what I asked of her."
"What you--
"Yes, me. Daddy, I was using her 'skills' to help me on a story I am on."
"Your reporter job you have at The Daily Planet?" the General asked questioningly.
"Yeah, I just got promoted. I'm not in the basement anymore."
General Lane smiled.
"You better get a damn Pulitzer."
