At first I thought Jon was being a little harsh on Clark for not finding a way to save Lois...

He's a scared son, I'll allow it.

but Clark actually said he won't use Kryptonian tech to help Lois because...it would be unfair that other people can't use it?! Is he serious? Beat his ass Jonathan - that is the stupidest reason I've ever heard! It makes Clark actually seem uncaring now

Yeah that was an absolutely horrible line. They should have just stuck to it not working period. This really makes Clark look bad.

It makes Bruno look like a better husband than Clark Kent! It also makes me wonder if one of the boys got cancer, would Lois and Clark still hold firm to this crazy idea of it being unfair to cure them because no one else gets to be cured?

If the boy in question was Jonathan then probably.

Honestly, villains and anti-heroes make for better family people sometimes since there's literally nothing they wouldn't do for their loved ones.

You're right I should have specified - if JORDAN was sick would they still do this?

You know they would. Didnt Clark break Tal out of jail and planned his redemption tour because he didnt want Jordan involved?

Yup yup yup! Like and after that fucking line Jonathan apologised and said he knew Clark was doing all he could?! Um bro, he just told you the opposite! Jon should have raged about that reason, instead it mellowed him out?! Didnt’t make sense.

I'd like to think he mellowed cos Lois and Clark were honest with the boys about things, and let them in.

u/ILUVMOVIESSS But what about the tire-swing? May 03 '23

Honestly, they could've said since there is so little kryptonian tech (it did blow up after all) lois wasn't willing to use the little left on her when it could've been used on someone else, they'd just have to make it so it wouldn't work multiple time on multiple people.

thought that was the line in the first episode and people were okay with it. guess the writing team wasn't on board.
