season five continues please don’t let anything like the last episode happen again:
-huh things went downhill for lana really fast. one episode clark breaks up with her the next she’s on suspiciously bright green unnamed drugs. okay
-clark just. ran to honduras. i lov him
-oh. lionel is here
-official smallville pig count: 2. it’s WILD that it’s taken this long and now we’re on a pig every episode rate
-whoa i think a guy falling on a circular saw and taking like 30 seconds to die is the grisliest death smallville has ever had
-now watch as despite lana stealing his car and also breaking into his house lex is completely fine with her cause that’s normal and healthy
-side note: i think my problem with the whole “i am entitled to your secret i cannot stand all these lies” thing comes from being a gay. like, no one is obligated to come out of the closet and Clark’s Secret feels a lot like that to me
-side note part two: how has literally no one on this show wondering about Clark’s Secret thought “oh, maybe he’s queer”? fucking wild, although maybe i should be thankful cause i don’t see that being done respectfully
-little girl just fucking murdered some fish by smashing all the glass in the house including their tank with her miiiiind poooooowers
-oh sweet lord i forgot how lovely clark is with kids
-lana: you must really trust me. lex: 100% me: she stole your car LAST EPISODE
-KRYPTO IS BACK but for some reason is called shelby now i guess??? okay???
-lois is as bad with kids as clark is good. excellent, great, wonderful. such rich pairing material
-lex getting aol video messages this is a noughties period drama
-evil guy with glass powers killed the fish not the little girl so we’re allowed to like her i guess
– do uh, diamonds count as glass now?
-clark adopting super powered kids is everything i want from this show
-this lex and lana storyline is making me actively look forward to when she is written out he’s been perving on her since she was FIFTEEN
-lana: what are we doing? lex: i thought we were enjoying an evening of chess. that exchange doesn’t really really need any input from me it’s already perfect
-the villain of this episode basically just hates capitalism which is fair. but also they murder people. not fair
-also they have a tinfoil face for some reason
-whoa. does… does lionel shave his armpits?
-lex is STILL trying to find “common ground” with clark cause he still loves him
-my boy broke through a wall then caught a lift this is what i’m here for
-bad guy took of his mask and lionel gasps but i’m there like “i have literally no idea who that is”
-lex luthor is what tony stark could have been we should be very glad he’s iron man instead. i just really love tony stark okay
-i pretty much unironically love the theme song now
-oh clark has a new ~mystery~ sugar daddy now
-lois is doing crunches whilst doing politics and i’m not sure who to thank or what i did to deserve this but OH BOY OH MAN OH WOW
-”clark kent is afraid of heights” is the best running joke this show has set up
-lois continues to have absolutely horrible taste in men and that is not just because she hasn’t shown interest in clark (or alternatively me) yet
-jfc lois just poured nearly an entire thing of sugar into her coffee. you don’t need to drink the bean juice if you need that much sugar babe, come join me in the leaf water corner
-alright by the 15th pun surely someone would have worked out that this guy is a hitman? i mean “it can get a little cutthroat”???
-he just invited lois to a coldplay concert. PERIOD DRAMA
-mmmmmm a classic hard thing shattering against clark shot whilst somehow leaving his clothes undamaged literally my favourite
-lois in the shower! CLARK SEEING LOIS NAKED! yeeeeeeeeees the episode is SO GOOD
-lois takes hour and a half long showers. i love her so much
-lois: why can’t i meet a decent guy from a decent family? me, openly weeping: YOU ALREADY HAVE
-mum kent finishing up the episode being completely right about absolutely everything yet again
-daddy kent shows up at his own grave (extremely extra) to tell clark to kill daddy luthor and he says it because lionel is gonna do something terrible but we all know its because dad kent is missing dad luthor and wants to have homoerotic arguments with him in the afterlife
-mum kent: jonathan, you know you’re the only man i’ve ever loved. me: well that’s not a very straight thing to say
-i haven’t had much to say about this episode cause i’ve been eating my tea whilst watching but i’m not convinced for a second that clark is actually gonna kill someone
-tractor throwing! yaaaay! now we know for sure it isn’t the real dad kent. he spent so long fixing the damn thing he would never just throw it at clark and break it again
-doctor: well lex you’ve never been healthier. me: seriously what happened to the blood purification thing. i genuinely don’t remember that ever being resolved
-lex: clark’s specialty is barging in where he isn’t invited. me: EXCUSE ME? E X C U S E M E??? that is the most hypocritical thing i’ve ever heard anyone on this show say holy shit
-lois just referenced the night stalker. i see you babe. my girl is into true crime
-i’m actually so excited for
Andrew Jacoby, Duke of Kenilworth
to show up as general zod but that might actually be ages yet idk
-DO NOT RING PEOPLE WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING
-”i’ll be there tonight” why do fictional people always say this? “tonight” is such a wide bracket of time
-i’m not even gonna talk about lana’s arc this season
-clark just got sent to the phantom zone so that’s fun. no, not fun. what’s the opposite of fun?
-ooooooo, nice use of stock footage of riots
-i have no idea why people are actually rioting but it’s certainly injecting some drama into the last minutes of the season
-lana’s doing her big romantic speech to lex but the whole city is rioting and it doesn’t really seem like the time
-clark is gonna have to save an awful lot of people really fast at the start of the next season when this cliffhanger is resolved
