Lois never actually forgot anything

Why do you say that?

Do you have the Superman IV DVD?

Scene 11:

Superman: "You remember, don't you."
Lois: "I remember everything."

The entirety of Scene 22, where Lois brings Superman's cape to Clark's apartment for him, and tells him how she feels about him.

And the closing scene (27) right before Superman addresses the public, where he tells Lois that he had a good nurse (referencing Scene 22)

I have the DVD box set. So I guess the kiss is only temporary. That's not very Superman-like. And what about Lana and the ring?

Going back and watching those scenes in Superman IV,  I realized it wasn't so clear-cut as a I remembered it being.  The whole thing is really open to viewer interpretation.  My interpretation of Lois going along with the gag works, but so would an interpretation that Superman is using Lois, somehow making her constantly remember and forget and remember again.  Or maybe as Lois' love grows, so does her inner knowledge of Superman's dual-identity.  There are probably other interpretations that would work.

No idea.
