Three quibbles, though. (Oh come on, have I *ever* been able to make it through an instalment without finding some nit to pick at?)
1. Assuming that Lex balances his chequebook each month (and he seems the type) wouldn't he have noticed a long time before now that all these cheques were going uncashed? Also, how could Clark 'Smith' open a chequing account if he had no ID? Wouldn't it make more sense if Lex had been paying him in cash?
2. Um, is Lex's lawyer in Lionel's pay, because it seems to me that in the normal run of things Lionel shouldn't know how Lex has left his money. Not unless Lex told him.
3. If Clark has been working at the grocery store ever since he left Lex and not 'working', how did the bartender at the club know where to find him?
Please don't take these nitpicks as suggesting that I didn't enjoy the section, because I did, tremendously (well, if whimpering can be said to denote enjoyment). I'm just anal-retentive, that's all.
