Smallville

[hils]

I can't actually decide if I liked this episode or not.

Dean Cain was brilliant, of course, and it's reminded me I really need to watch Season 1 of Lois and Clark.

The Clex was...well, I don't know. I was all happy when Clark swept Lex up and carried him away. I was all happy when it was obvious Clark had waited in the hospital for Lex to wake up. Then Clark opened his mouth and all the bitterness came out and that just made me sad :(

The second scene was better, where they were working together to find Knox.

Lana is back on form I see. Using the animosity between Clark and Lex to keep Clark on her side. And after all that fuss about Lex spying on her she is now doing exactly the same thing.

Are we supposed to be ok with what Lana is doing because Lex is evil? Because, yes, Lex did some bad things last Season but he also seems to be trying to do a lot to help people as well. He risked his life when he followed Knox to confront him but no one pays any attention to that.

I don't understand why Chloe can't tell Jimmy about her meteor infectedness. Because, really, I think he'd understand and try and help her. Now she's alone and miserable.

I miss Lois, but at least Grant wasn't in this episode either.

Poor Kara is back to being all alone now :( I hope she and Clark make up soon.

I think Lana is a two-faced liar who doesn't want Clark to see her dark side, cause he prefers Stepford Lana.

Maybe that's just me.

Clark picked Lex up so - tenderly.

Yeah, Clark really does prefer Stepford Lana. We saw that in Labyrinth last season. Which makes me wonder what he wants Lex to be, given that in his mind Lex had no leg and Chloe died.

Those are maybe the 'twisted thoughts' Bizarro talked about

I agree that Dean Cain was awesome - I hope we see him again! And yes, L&C is great in the beginning!

Here's my Clex fanwank: Tom knows that Clark still cares for Lex, but the stupid writers won't cooperate, so he gives us everything he can in the parts where no words are spoken. Thus we get the rush to fallen Lex, the lovely scoop of rescue, and the anguished look of longing at Lex's bedside. What came after was, um, Clark hiding the pain of loss and regret behind angry words he didn't really mean. Yeah, that's the ticket! LOL!

And I am never going to be okay with anything Lana does. Unless she leaves. :)

I like your fanwank and approve!

And Lana absolutely needs to leave. Now.

Totally behind this theory, 100%!

This is going to sound horrible, but I am tired of Clark bitching at Lex all the time.

I never liked Lana anyway, so her stalking is just one more thing.

And I like Kara!

I am tired of all the bitching too. Really, they just need to sit down, have a long talk and realise that Lana is playing them off each other

I love Kara. She needs to be the focus of more episodes.

I think Jimmy is a tool of a boyfriend (although on the surface, he seems very... devoted) and Chloe is good to be rid of him. If he's so dead set of hating meteor freaks all of a sudden that he refuses to listen to her when she tells him to stop, he can GO. I don't want another bigotry retcon where he makes the exception because of the woman he loves. Prejudice doesn't work that way!

Lana is a snake. A snaaaaake.

You could be right about Jimmy, but to be fair he's only echoing things Chloe herself has been saying for years.

Oh, Lana is a total snake. Smallville needs to have whack day!
