- This needed to be a two-parter. So much was missing, truncated, or could have been expanded on.
- Gina Holden as Patricia Swann – I didn’t recognize her in the previews and couldn’t place her name in the credits, but as soon as I saw her I squealed. Coreen from Blood Ties! Looking slightly less goth than I’m used to, but just as awesome. Oh yeah, and that guy from BSG had a boring role. Yawn.
- Chloe and Lana working together to (re)create their own superhero. Lana being all cool and determined and not annoying.
- Lionel self-medicating with alcohol again and listening to his suicidal opera (it was the same piece, wasn’t it?) What can I say, I like seeing him shaky and vulnerable instead of all cocky. John Glover plays it well.
- I continue to like Lex’s current exec assistant or whatever her position is. Glad she’s still around.
- Really cool use of flame heat vision. Such an incredible evolution from the skinny red beams used in the Superman movies and Lois & Clark.
It rly should have been a 2 parter considering some of the important stuff it touched on like Clark “breaking up” with Lionel, and Kara gaining her memories back and stuff :(
I dun understand why Clark is the hero of this show at all sometimes xD

It’s destiny! Therefore they don’t have to work at it at all, just say it over and over and that makes it so. Or something.
Clark did break up with Lionel, hehe. And Lex, whom he just promised two episodes ago he would always be a friend to (at least the helpless Alexander version supposedly fighting against the “evil” Lex – guess he lost that fight the moment Clark left, huh).
I do wonder how many lives Clark is going to destroy before he, like, stops hiding in his parents’ barn and gets a job and faces the real world (it’ll probably take Martha deciding to move on with her life and sell the farm). At this rate he’s going to be more like those broody vampire superheroes who has to atone for his sins than any version of Superman.
Super
girlwoman heading the Justice League sounds better every day!
