wasn't kidding when I said I'm not sure how I feel about this episode. I felt like there were scenes missing. Maybe the way it was edited. There was a lot going on and while I appreciate the moving up of the plot (finally). I don't think they were all the successful. It wasn't a bad episode but it didn't gel.
A couple weeks ago I inadvertently came across the spoiler that Tess is a Luthor.
I didn't come across that spoiler but i heard we were going to find out Tess is a _ and I was like Luthor duh. And I figured Pamela was going to be her mom. I don't think in any way diminish her character. It does however make me wonder if Lex knew.
I also wasn't entirely comfortable with Lois taking it upon herself to find the key and go to the FOS. I love how close her and Clark are and that Clark has chosen to share his heritage and roots with her completely, but it still felt intrusive to me. But maybe that's just me and my weird privacy issues, and I've shared a home with someone now for years and years, heh.
I personally didn't like the way she went to the Fortress like a battering ram though imo it's in character. I also think it was unnecessary and felt random. Like again there was a scene or two missing. Though it was nice to see Julian Sands and Helen Slater. I do think Clark gives Lois a lot of leeway. A lot more than he would anyone in the past but then I also think Clark's like the best bf ever when in regards to Lois.
I know I'm in the minority in regards to this but I'm really starting to resent Rosenbaum not wanting to come back. Like you get Teri Hatcher to make a cameo and you can't show up. I'm like what are you so busy doing. Then all the Rosenbaum fangirls are like they must have treated him soooooooo bad. And I'm like seriously. I don't know at this point if they recast him it wouldn't bother me at all.
I don't know if I resent him, personally, but I don't seem to understand why exactly he can't reprise the role. Unless of course, he had an absolutely terrible experience with TPTB to the extent that he just wants to stay away from them now as far as possible. In which case, it's his choice, his preference, I can understand. But I do wonder, like yourself, about the schedule thing.
Having said that, I'd hate a recast. My sincerest hope is that MR does agree to return.

It really didn't, did it? The pacing was all off.

Oh, I think he totally knew. Really, MR not returning feels even worse now - how I'd love a scene between him and CF.
And yes, I agree, Clark is the best bf - certainly the most understanding.
