missing link?

Okay, so I've been trying to flesh-out the big-picture of Teh Rift so far in SV-land, but I know from memory that we were all bitching about how the change was poorly handled by tptb ( Read more... )

I see Covenant, and then Mortal, as the big rift episodes

Yeah, Lex had told Clark he'd stopped investigating him and in Convenant Clark had the proof he hadn't.

In Mortal he'd set Clark up and risked the lives of Lana and his parents to do it.

I'd say those are pretty good reasons for Clark to be angry at Lex. As for Lex, he'd just gotten tired of Clark's secret and not being trustworthy enough to know it but Clark's been proven right in not trusting Lex with it. He's still obsessed with Clark's secret.

In Commencement he kidnapped Chloe to try and get her to tell him what she knew about Clark and the stones. Later, Lex had gone ballistic when found out that Lana knew it in Reckoning and wouldn't tell him. He even ended up killing her over it, although that didn't stick. This season he stil suspects something is up with Clark and he thought his guards describing someone who looked like Clar was the proof, but Lionel lied to protect Clark. I bet Lex didn't believe his dad.

Well I wouldn't say that Lex "killed her". Lana was driving whilst talking on the phone, and drove into a bus. Lex didn't help the situation, but Lana should really have pulled over when she was being so distracted

Well, true but he did contribute significantly to the events that lead up to her death...

I would have thought that, too, but if is true, then now he knows that Lionel is on Clark's side, and that would confirm that there's something to protect, and that Lionel is in the goods. I wonder if they'll bring that out in a future ep.

Oh, good point.

I wonder if that will, but I bet so. They've been setting up a rift between Lex and Lionel since last season. I bet it gets lethal for Lionel, poor guy...

*wink*

I can't even tell if I'm supposed to applaud or mourn!

He he he...

The Magnificent Bastard does add a lot to the show and John Glover is such a good actor, I would miss seeing him. I would mourn him, even though he has some pretty awful things.

Thank you, frell!
I used to know every ep by heart, from it's been a long time since I re-watched them in sequence.
Re your icon, Clark breathing that hotly into Chloe's ear was my fave single line of the ep. hell, of the century. guh
