It was actually the dialog after that, IIRC where he said he didn't want to treat Clark Kent as a disguise, since it's who he really is.

Talk about a dark episode!

This new Lex with old Lex memories is damn creppy! It's also interesting to see how alt-Lionel is struggling with what to do here. Maybe he's worried about an evil Clark since he knows he can turn on him and doesn't want to destroy him. He'd rather have him buzzing around and stay in the shadows.

I loved the interaction between Lionel and anybody. The Ollie and Lionel and Martha and Lionel parts were especially good.

I also thought Clark and Martha having their conversation in the open was very weird. At least shut the door! I'm also calling bogus on Martha getting rushed to the hospital and treated before Clark gets to the hospital. We saw Clark go from Smallville to Metropolis in the premier to save Lois and the Plante globe in a matter of seconds. Then Chloe just pops in past the security as well?!

Very werid with Lex showing some degree of powers. My main gripe with that is it's one more thing to deal with. As others have said the Darkside plot has taken a back seat and really needs to come back. It really should have been going on this entire time. They could have been showing tv clips in the background of every episode with Godfrey spreading his message.

I thought Clark had already been wearing the shirt and jacket? He put that back on earlier in the season after he said goodbye to his dad and ditched the black suit. Speaking of, I wonder if the episode "Kent" will deal with Clark addressing that issue he brought up to Martha. Seems fitting.

Cool episode. Loved having Martha back. And evil Lionel was good too, even though I did like the arc where he became Clark's ally.

Interesting stuff about Alexander. If it's true that he turns out to be

Superboy, could that be leading up to a showdown between Darkseid and Superman, Supergirl and Superboy?
That could kick some serious ass!

Unless they pull a Heroes and it's all off screen. Hell Smallville did it a few years ago with Bizarro Superman in a finale.

He's also Starkiller from Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.

Don't even say that! Yeah, they butchered the "show-down" with "Doomsday" too. Just hope they get it right this time.
