...is Lois Lane. Though Lois coming to Smallville in Clark's teens is uncharted territory (as far as I know), the character brings needed banter out of a pensive Clark.
In last night's episode, Lois, expelled from Metropolis U., unable to join her Army general father, needs a place to stay. She approaches Clark with a classic self-deprecating ramble, to which he responds:
"If you want, I guess you could stay with us—"
"Oh, you're a lifesaver. God, am I in need of a shower. Don't worry, Smallville. I'll try to keep it under a half hour."
Lois scoots away and the scene ends not on Clark's usual speechless stare, but on his laugh-inducing line, "What just happened?"
Which reminds me a SEAL cadence I once heard:
Superman is the Man of Steel,
but he ain't no match for a Navy SEAL.
Chief and Supes got in a fight,
Chief hit Supes with some kryptonite.
Supes fell down to his knees in pain,
Now Chief's dating Lois Lane.
