I thought this was somewhat of a throwaway episode since there wasn't a lot of substance to it. Jilted ex-lover taking vengeance on Lex for having too many one-night stands? The subplot with Jason's mother was so miniscule it didn't seem like much, although it will probably lead up to something bigger in future episodes. I did like how Lionel showed signs of redemption and how Lex was showing an even darker side of himself. Both of these moments makes it harder for Clark to know who to trust anymore since in the past, he would side with Lex and go against Lionel, rather than the opposite in this episode.
Nice thing Clark did with his jacket....it probably means that super breath won't be too far away.

What was the point of Jane Seymour?? Maybe its just cause i hate the Lana storyline, and could give a rats ass about her tattoo, but it all seemed pointless tonight. There was no pay off.

Considering this ep involved both Luthors, it really didn't bring too much to the table. Yeah, we know Lex is troubled already - give us some more.
And this witch storyline needs to go the hell away.

The whole Lana subplot brought the episode to a screeching halt everytime they cut to it, but otherwise a really good episode, especially considering Clark's super abilities were barely a factor.
The promo for next week looks great, although I hope it doesn't end up being one of those "tease" episodes.

The episode was ruined for me when I recognized the lawyer's assistant as the same mysterious woman that captured Lex's libido. Anyhow, the wrap-up to Lex's ordeal lacked punch.
Now, has Lionel really been turned into a force for good? Hmm...
Lana and Jason could be on another show for all I care, their subplot is subpar.

Edit: Haha, I just realized Pete is a character on the show.
I thought this was one of the better episodes this season.

Not much of an episode. This was supposed to be a look into Lex's dark side? He sleeps around? Ooo, dark.
Lionel was more fun when he was evil.
Lana & Jason. Blah.
On the plus side, Chloe's scene in the elevator was fun & next week's preview was promising!
Oh, & I miss Pete!!!

I enjoyed this episode, though for the most part it had more suggestion than substance - it opened up several possibilities and potential story lines.
By the way - aren't they skipping the Thanksgiving Eve slot and coming back in two weeks?

Decent episode. Looking forward to next week.
I especially liked how Clark saved Lex by swirling his jacket around causing the fire to evaporate into the air. Great unintentional comedy right there.
Kinda like Clark's dancing.

I enjoyed the episode but nothing Great. I guess they are just tossing hints in there about what is going on with Lana and how it fits into the whole scheme of things.
Enjoyed seeing Jane Seymore. Kept expecting to say to her son, "Come back to me." Never the less, I like Lana's new storyline but I wish they would give Jason more to do.

Was this the first time Clark used telescopic vision? Or telescopic combined with x-ray?

I need to rewatch this episode, because I never seemed to get into it. I really didn't care about Lana's subplot, but it could be turn into something interesting for future episodes. I do hope that Lex's dark side comes out in this season like the episodes are hinting towards.
