Episode 23 - Exodus


I have seen many people criticize when it comes to Clark rejecting his destiny and Jor-El in this , among many other episodes.Myself I can see why a teenage boy (Alien or Not) that is raised to care about his family and friends would want to choose to deny someone new (Jor-El) coming into his world and telling him how he has to live out the rest of his life.


So in an attempt to rid himself from all of this new drama.He tries to destroy the ship and he does, but of course not without consequences.I had really hoped that Martha would be able to bring a brother for Clark into the world, but as we see in this episode Jor-El will not be defied by his son.Which does give us a taste of how powerful Kryptonian's really are.

Now on to Lex and the wedding day he won't soon forget.Starting the day off in a Chapel and ending it, waking up in a plane plowing down into the Ocean.Also noticing that his new bride and the pilot are missing.Added to the fact that the plane had been obviously sabotaged with all the controls being gutted like a fish.

Oh and Chloe goes and makes a deal with the devil..literally.I understand she is upset with Clark right now, but to investigate Clark for Lionel.I guess you really need to put yourself in these characters positions though before you can honestly judge their actions.I mean in Chloe's eyes as well as Lana's, there has always been that distance that Clark has shown around them.So in that context, she is not able to think as rationally as we would want her to be.

Finally, I really felt for Clark and his need to escape.There is only so much you can handle in the guilt department and Clark just couldn't feel like he was hurting all the people in his life that he loves anymore.So Clark does what most people would do when trying to medicate the pain away.Except in Clark's case he substitutes drugs,alcohol etc. for Red K and heads on out into the sunset.So ends another great season and being that I have already seen all of them.They only get better and better from here on out.Season 3 here we come....

Epsiode 22 - Calling


So now with this episode that is appropriately named Calling , we get to see more of a glimpse of Clark's destiny.With Dr. Walden coming out of his catatonic state to deliver the message that the day is coming to Clark hearing the voice of his biological father Jor-El.Also we see Lex and his father's interest in the caves,Clark and everything related increase once Dr. Walden tell them that it is Clark that is the Last son of Krypton that will rule the planet.

Off that subject for a minute and on to the pending nuptials between Lex and Helen Bryce.Although Daddy Lionel tried to pay her (according to her and Lionel) to stay away from Lex.Among other problems such as her psycho Ex and Lex's secretive ways, the wedding seems to be going as scheduled.So being a Clana fan I did love Clark's toast to Lex and Helen at their rehearsal dinner and how with Clark looking at Lana as he made the toast making it have a double meaning in the way he feels toward Lana.

Then we see poor Chloe and how she is able to see that a gift from a Luther, is never actually just a gift.Lionel really knows how to stike just when people are at their most vulnerable ..don't he?I did love the exchange between Lionel and the doctor that informed him about how something (The Key) protected Dr. Walden's hand after he was fried to a golden crisp.She says look how it protected his hand, in which Lionel replies sent it to me..the Dr replies..what?..his hand..in a like Duh kinda voice, gotta love it.

Last but not least is the bitter sweet ending with Clark and Lana admitting to each other that they did not want their feelings to be a secret anymore.Sadly Chloe happened to witness this and since she also shares a romantic interest for Clark, it just was too much for her to take.My heart really goes out to Chloe and how she can't help that she loves her best friend.I have encountered this in my own life and I think she portrayed the emotions you feel when this happens..perfectly.So now that Clark is on top of the world , of course you know it makes it prime time for something to catch him off guard.That being Jor-El once again calling out to him saying Kal-El it is time and the storm cellar glowing from the light of Clark's ship.How will this all play out you may ask...well it is now once again my favorite time as it is time for the finale.So I am off to watch it now and I hope you guys will be back to read and comment on what I thought of it.Take care everyone and thanks again for stopping by and reading my blog.

Smallville Season 7 is almost Here!!!

O.k anybody that reads my blog knows how I am about my Smallville.Well this Thursday the 27th, is the start of what looks to be an excellent season and I am starting to feel that Christmas feeling I told you guys about in earlier blogs.lol

The only sad thing is that there seems to be a shortage of Promo Pics for this season.I always look forward to seeing how the different cast members have changed over the summer.At least they did give us Promo pictures of Kara "Supergirl" and you can see them at my Tom Welling Blog.

Also I have all the seasons 1-6 screencaps over at my Screen Caps Directory, if you was wanting to take a recap through the past seasons.

I have had an extremely busy summer, but I am going to start back real soon with where I left off and hopefully get caught up to where we are today.lol.Take care guys and hope all is well with you. ;)

Episode 21 - Accelerate


Could you imagine someone you thought was dead coming back like Emily did in this episode?I always thought the writing on Smallville was very creative and this episode was more proof of that .I have to agree with Lex where he was talking about how it was an amazing accomplishment in how they were able to clone Emily.Only bad thing is about the no conscience and of course the accelerated growth rate.Maybe this was the start of something in Lex's thinking that affects what he does in upcoming seasons.(Season 6 Reference)


As you know I am a fan of Lana, as well as all the other cast members on the show.Well particularly Lana in this episode because of having to deal with yet another traumatic event from her past.I can't even imagine loosing your best friend at the age of 10 years old.At any age it would be horrible,but especially a child having to go through it.Like Chloe said about Clark not knowing that Lana sometimes cried in the middle of the night.Who knows how it would shape you as a person if most of your experiences is people leaving you and also loosing them to death.


That's one of the reasons I have always loved Lana.For the fact that she makes it through all these obstacles and still finds ways to be strong and try to make the best of what life throws at her.I also loved the ending with how Lana finally broke through her fears about Clark and said that she should be putting more trust in him.After he was telling her that nothing could change the way he looks at her and the way he feels for her.

Episode 20 - Witness

Here is another case of an obsessed person trying to get ahead with the help of the very popular green meteor rocks.I this case it's Eric (Zachary Ty Bryan) and his two buddies using a meteor induced cocktail that they consume by way of an inhaler.Interesting though is that they are getting there shipments by way of stealing them from none other than Lionel Luther..Hummm

Of course their evil plans may have worked, but not if Clark has anything to say about it.Being a Witness though,they couldn't let him live to tell all about it.Luckily for us though ,not even putting him in a blazing inferno would stop our hero from stopping evil.

I had to throw this pic in here to because...well duh...it's Hot!! lol

I thought it took a lot of courage for Lana to abandon her hopes and dreams of getting to know her recently discovered father.So that he could try and repair his marriage,but unfortunately for Lana it is the last time she would see him. (At least as far as we ever see on the show).
Oh if we could have just jumped through the screen and told Chloe..What Are you doing!!!!She should have known when the devil himself gives you something, he's going to always come back to collect.

Episode 19 - Precipice


Now wasn't that just so nice of Lex to offer to help Lana train to defend herself.You can't tell me at this point in time that you did not see an alterer motive brewing in the complex mind of Lex Luther with this offer.At least Lana did get some good defense skills out of it.

So as you know a town can not operate without a Sheriff and after Sheriff Ethan's shady dealings tarnishing the name.Who better to straighten up things in this town ,but newly appointed Sheriff Adams (Camille Mitchell).One thing we learn about the new sheriff is that she is going to be on top of everything and everyone including Clark.

Don't you just hate it when an old boyfriend/girlfriend from your past just re-appears when you least expect it?Even more so in Helen's case when the boyfriend in question is a psychopath.

Episode 18 - Visitor

This is the pure example of how Clark is truly Superman.The way at the start of this episode,how he tries to defend outsider Cyrus from the bullies.Oh and I so loved it when he made the board engulf in flames.How I wish I could have done that in high school and the stain marks it would have made in some well deserved pants of idiots I had to deal with.lol

How sad and wonderful Cyrus was with his ability to heal and tragically it was what also drained and killed him in the end.That shows what a true hero is ,in my opinion.Even passing up what he believed to be his parents returning for him.


The other storyline of the show revolved around surprise,surprise the trust issues with Lex and Helen.Finally Lex did give in and let Helen see the one room and secret that had kept hidden.To say Lex was a little obsessed with Clark and the Kent's would have been a serious understatement.Don't you think it's funny how even the characters we don't really know everything about, always tries to protect the Kent's and Clark when it is all said and done.In this case, Helen not telling Lex about the blood she had taken from Clark.

Episode 17 - Rosetta

Now we are getting to the good stuff in this season.First Clark getting dreams/visions of him inserting the key in the cave wall and then the key calling out to him.Then burning the kryptonian symbol on the barn.Showing that no matter how hard he tries,he can not escape his destiny.

One thing I love about Smallville is how they weave famous people like Superman himself Christopher Reeve in as a somewhat eccentric professor.To help Clark unravel what all the weird stuff that has been happening to him means.

Epsiode 16 - Fever

I could see why Martha thought she had to hide the key to the ship.I mean all she wants to do is protect her son from the mysteries of his destiny.Of course she don't want her son to leave her and his father,but more than that.She don't want him to step into anything that may lead to trouble for him.

Poor Chloe found out the hard way that the heart is stronger than the mind.When she poured her heart out to Clark while he was passed out from the fever and called out Lana's name.Like I said before about pinning away for someone you can't have, your heart can't help who it loves.Which ironically is exactly how Clark feels about Lana.

Luckily they get the ship to the Hospital and it heals them all from the fever.Now wouldn't that be really cool and sure save us all from huge Hospital bills,if it was real.lol

Episode 15 - Prodigal


So in this one we finally get to see the prodigal son of Lionel Luther and brother to Lex.What a big surprise to us (sarcastic) that the apple doesn't fall to far from the tree with the way Lucas acts and reacts to the world.lol
Lucas uncovers that Lionel is not really blind anymore and also with the help of Lex.Proves where Lionel's loyalty lies in which son he would save if it came down to him choosing.


O.k not that Clark's rescuing someone is not reason enough to mention,but there are more to me posting these pics.As you might have noticed, I am a lover of everything Tom Welling and it seems that Clark was going commando in these sceens and thankfully they still made it through the editing process.
Click on them and zone in and see what I mean....Big Hands ,Big Feet and well you know..*wink* Oh My!! ;O)

Episode 14 - Rush

Now we get to see the down fall for Clark about someone knowing his secret.As was stated in earlier episodes of what a burden it would be to know a secret so big.I definitely understand Clark's dilemma though and why he had to tell Pete.It's just that as we see in this episode how much of a burden it is for Pete.After he's infected he seems to use all the knowledge about Clark against him.With using both red and green meteor rocks on him and threatening to expose his secret.

I have to say that Chloe always cracks me up when she is infected.I don't mean that I think she's necessarily funny.I am saying because I am happy she is getting to let all her pent up wants and desires.The same way I told you guys about the way I love Clark when he is on Red K.It was great getting to see the look on her face when she found out about Clark, even though she never remembered any of it.


Once again the pitfalls of being Clark Kent is never getting to be completely honest with people.How over and over he has to keep disappointing almost everybody close to him and mainly the one he is in love with , Lana.
Last but not least ,here is my blog episode contribution to Hot shirtless Clark pics.Enjoy!!! :P

Episode 13 - Suspect

Like a great who done it movie, this one was very cool in my opinion.I mean what better suspense then to try and figure out which person would shoot down Lionel Luther.I think that there would only be a very few people both in Smallville and probably the world that wouldn't have a motive.lol.So taking a look at the main suspects...

Johnathan Kent was the primary suspect and with good reason.I mean he has never shied away from telling each and everybody that he knows and meets,about his hatred toward the Luthers.Then having many witnesses attesting to seeing the anger the day he was shot.Then the smoking gun of the police finding him, supposedly drunk,passed out with a gun in his hand.If not for Clark, I think Johnathan would have been a goner.

Of course you could have seen Lex doing it,being so tired of his father's constant manipulations.Lionel had just went and pushed Lex to far this time and he was the one,but then there's ...

Dominique and how he could have done it with him feeling in danger of loosing his ranking and worth with Lionel and Luther Corp...but I was sad to see that it turned out to be...

Ethan...oh man I couldn't believe that Ethan could be driven to any means to frame Johnathan for Lionel's shooting.I understand after Ethan's talk with Lionel in the limousine,that he would be angry enough to kill.Just not putting it all off on your so called best friend.

Episode 12 - Insurgence

Once again we are educated on the Luther family values in this episode.Lionel bugging his own sons house and spying on him.Of course never being beat by his father, Lex then turns the tables on him.Sadly though in Martha's case it would be on a day she didn't call in sick to work and on her Anniversary at that.

As you know in any Drama, no one can be totally happy or else it wouldn't be called a drama.That is definitely the case for Lana once again in this episode.Growing up without her parents and then finding out that her father is not the man she thought and is alive.Even better they actually had a shot at having a relationship , but not if Lana's evil stepmother(Jennifer) had anything to do with it.

Oh and now if we didn't have our suspicions about Lionel wanting to know everything about Clark,The Kent's and the effects of meteor rocks.We definitely know for sure now and the lengths he would go through to prove it.With the file on Clark and the meteor shaped bars and no telling what else.How cool was it when Martha swipes the key and Clark's fast thinking in torching Lionel's files, after she told Clark about them.
