(You *are* sure you don't mean: "the off-screen scene in which Lex blows Clark"?)
Oh, well, that one's a favourite for sure! But no, it isn't what I meant. The millisecond I refer to is onscreen, but so quick (or obscure) it's hard to catch. Sort of like the Clark running scene in "Prodigal", you have to have it pointed out, but once you see it, you're thinking, "Wow! How could I miss that?"
It's when Clark and Lex have arrived at the barried at the school and Principal Reynolds is giving Clark a hard time - lecturing him - and Clark glances at Lex and Lex looks at Clark and make a little face, a pursed-lip thing that the more you look at it, the more it looks as if he's blowing a kiss....
Really. Have another look. Try it in slow motion. See what you think. Even if you decide it isn't a kiss, it's a wonderful, wonderful visual Clex moment.
I started out thinking it was just a Lexish moue, a reaction to what Reynolds was saying, but the more I watched it the more it looked like a kiss. My slashy imagination? I dunno, but I convinced myself.
