Let's go get a real cup of coffee....

Lois: I have done this dating thing so many times.
Clark: Then let's do it right. Let's take our time.
Lois: Really? In that case let's go get a real cup of coffee. How come real?
They don't do fake coffees, do they?

And then we'll have lunch ...the first of many.
