Where does Superman hide it?

WARNING: spoilers

While we're on the subject of Superman, how exactly does he do it? One minute he's Clark Kent, bantering away with Jimmy Olsen at the Daily Planet, the next minute Lois Lane is in trouble and there he is, stripping off into his red and blues and flying up the elevator shaft to her rescue. Really, Clark, who are you trying to fool? You really want us to believe that you wear that outfit of yours underneath your work suit all the time? That nobody at the Daily Planet's been able to sneek a peak at that red 'S' through your white cotton shirt? That you wear your red boots under your leather loafers? Seriously, how does that work?

You think the best advice you can give your half-breed son is "You'll be different. One day. You'll feel like an outcast, but you won't be alone"? These are the practical things he wants to know. What does he do with his cape? Does he roll it and stuff it down his suit pants? Does it get creased? Does he need to iron it? Or is it made of some non-iron Teflon material? How much will he have to shell out on suits, given that he'll have to rip them off on a daily basis?

Pointless trivia: the score for Superman Returns was composed by John Ottman, who also edited the movie. John Ottman also edited and composed the score for The Usual Suspects, also, of course, starring Kevin Spacey. Other multi-talented composers include Alejandro AmenĂ¡bar, who wrote, directed and composed the score to The Others.
