I just recently watched Hypnotic from S5 and it was funny to compare it to Instinct in S8, Lois catches Clark canoodling some girl that has him under a spell. In the former, she's unmoved and is like "oookay, weird" but in the latter, you can tell just how upset she was seeing him kissing someone else (even though they weren't together at all), especially from the way she called out "Smallville" in a high pitched voice. And another thing, When Clark called Lana to break up with her over the new girl, he didn't care one bit that he was breaking the heart of his supposed love but in Instinct, the moment he saw Lois, the spell was broken.
This applies to Warrior in S9 as well, doesn't he stop kissing Zatanna, breaking yet another spell because of Lois?
