Squeee! Followed by other dolphin noises!!

I love it when my show delivers the goods. I agree those fan vids really worked - that was a great call by the show.

I totally freaked out over Lex being Conner. I mean that has to explain the needle right?? It would be nice if lex came back and actually helped to save him.

Wow Martha was wonderful in this With Clark, With lois and especially with Chloe. I think she said a lot of things that needed to be said. I liked it a lot.

Lionel is wonderful in any dimension. I'm really curious to see what they will do with him. I also liked oliver and chloe. The whole thing really worked for me.

I want Clark & Lex to raise him as their child. MAKE HISTORY SMALLVILLE!

I prefer when the clones don't mimic Michael (though little Connor is excellent.)

And now where they will live, Tess & Lex if they burn the Mansion? and now seems that Tess and Lex are now living with Clark??
I guess they're living in the barn!

I think that Clone is a prototype of Kon. Doesn't he say he's getting sicker? I'll be back later with more coherent thought

My reaction is really mixed. Definitely better then last week, but that wasn't a hard hurdle to clear. And the dialogue was LEAGUES better.

But, I have to admit to still being really unhappy with the way they are writing Clark, or the amount of people who seem to be needed to protect him, and inspire him, and pep talk the crap out of him.

I thought the videos were lovely, but why am I not seeing the show where I'm watching Clark do the sorts of things that inspired people to feel that way?

And the Chloe/Martha scene was straight up bullshit.

Great performances by AOT, Glover, LG and Cassidy (who is SV's most solid performer these days). Less enthused by the rest.

Every word you say about Clark's writing is true...but I am a weak, weak woman when it comes to Glover. CAssidy blew me away, as ever.

We need more stranger-rescues, I love Clark swooping in on an astonished damsel or dude-in distress.

(When Lionel was driving around looking for Alexander, they showed an extra in a hoodie - it would have been so funny if Lionel had thought Ollie was Alex. "MY SON!")
