The interaction with Cloe, now that she knows, has been very interesting.

But for the most part just another killer of the week show.

 

[Gab]

I thought it was a bit more than just a "killer of the week show".

They're slowly shaping Clark into the Superman persona. His decision not to go to Met U for football was a tough but necessary one. Sure, he didn't find out the hard way that his powers would be too tempting to use under the pressure (that was provided by the bad-guy-of-the-week), but I thought it was still a good way to get Clark thinking about his use of powers.

And yes, Chloe's little remarks to Clark are interesting, if not slightly annoying: when is she gonna tell him?! She's dropping hints all over the place...

Chloe and Lois are always fun to watch - not only are both actressesses hotties, but the characters always bring a lot out of Clark that Jonathan, Martha, and Lana don't. It's clear that Chloe's about to burst with this secret, meaning that the character's probably going to die soon. I was kinda proud of Clark along with her - he's been acting like a brat for the past season and a half, and it's nice to see him making the more responsible choices. It actually makes me re-evaluate how I think the Lex/Clark break is going to go again. I had assumed it would be his fault - it still may yet be, but I'm not as sure.

I also got a laugh out of the "Farm Boy at a booty call" moment. Clark's reserved side to me makes him more human, and more likeable.

Now the next question is: Anyone want to start a "Chloe dies" death pool? I'm choosing the next-to-last episode of the season!

Sweeps week!

Lots of chemistry with Chloe, Lois and Clark, they interact well and are fun but Chloe's days are numbered and I see it all being in the story line with Lex.

 

[Arnwyn]

I found this episode much more enjoyable than the (awful, IMO) previous two.

Henry...I felt the the same too, when she was questioning him about obtaining information...like not breaking into a safe pun...and your assumption will be probably be correct.

Chloe is not part of the *official* Supes canon per se, and I have watch her suffer, with her feelings for him, now that she knows, that weight has seems to have disappeared, replaced with this new burden.

Which we have all seen, tend to have terrible side effects, in knowing Clark's secret. I would rather she goes away, in a different fashion, but the morale of this TV story...knowing this secret, is terrible for your health.

 

[Ambrus]

It was subtle, but I think we witnessed Clark's most incredible super-power yet in this episode: the ability to resist the advances of multiple beautiful scatily-clad nubile frisky co-eds. I ask you, what mere mortal heterosexual teenage male could resist such a siren's call? This must be why they call him "the man of steel". Truly oustanding

As for Chloe, I hope she spills her guts soon. It's clear that she is incapable of keeping a secret. It's embarassing to watch her try.

 

[Stone Angel]

I feel Chloe will demise in either the last of this season or in the opener of the next. I wonder if they will have Lois as special reporter for the Torch, maybe catching the reporting bug.

Now I wonder what positions Lois will put Clark into living with him, and how Chloe would feel about them, even more betrayed than her with Lana


Does anyone know if they are going to bring back Pete?



The Seraph of Earth and Stone

 

[Staffan]

I think Pete will return for one or two episodes this year, but I really don't think he's coming back permanently.
