  Wow, I never thought I would get this done.  Between a crazy busy weekend, major download issues, and general malaise about the show itself, it felt like a very long journey to this review.

I also think I was having a hard time thinking of what I wanted to say.  Because while this episode had some very entertaining moments in it, and some very

John Chisholm is yet another mediocre writer on the SV writing staff. But really, I blame the people in charge, because I do think these writers are only doing what they're told, for the most part. The dialogue in this ep was pretty par for the SV course. Its the storyline itself, and some of the implications, that were bothersome, and that comes from the breaking of the story itself.

To me, the idea that Clark and Oliver are real friends who trust each other is as unbelievable as it gets on this show. They just never sold that to me, and instead continue to do everything to undermine it.

Lois pulling the gun was just unnecessary. End of story.

Its ironic to me that Tess was the only one that was willing to back Clark's play 100%, regardless of her own feelings. And the show tells me she is wrong.

I'd challenge anyone to show me one instance where Lois has been shown to be anything less then the absolutely perfect, supportive girlfriend/fiancee all season. Oh wait, maybe Ambush, and I think there's a reason that episode is so well liked. But outside of that, she's shown as without fail or flaw. And I just don't think thats interesting.

Zod's storyline was one that came to a satisfying conclusion. It had its implied "another day, another time" ending to it. Revisiting him was so pointless.
