Then you have the setup for the end, I think.  Lana figuring out that Clark will never be who the world needs him to be as long as she is around.  Clark seeing the cape, but choosing to walk away from it.  Lionel and Lex realizing that Lana is manipulating everything...she's either going to be killed or willingly disappear by show's end, I bet.Overall, great episode.  And whoever played Rachel did a great job of looking like a much hotter Lana.</blockquote>
