Why would she talk about meeting Lois on her travels? They are cousins. Similar with Ollie, she met him in Metropolis. They were distinctly referring to her absence earlier this season, so yeah, Batman and Wonder Woman.

I thought it was fun to have a light-hearted episode as a contrast to the usual grimness.
As far as cleavage goes, it reminds me of the days when every other Lois episode found some excuse to put her in a skimpy outfit. One reason I kept watching the opening credits...

I just realized during this episode that the red bikini shot was gone from the opening.

Chloe in that wedding dress made this episode a "winner" for me.
Show is completely underusing Tess who is my favorite character at this point and she's extremely easy to look at.

I enjoyed the episode, but thought it was very odd. You could tell it was very fun for the cast. I wouldn't be surprised if those were somewhat genuine reactions to the Hangover video from the cast. Almost have a "goodbye" party feel to the entire thing.
As much as I used to loath Chloe (season 4?) it will be sad to see her go. I haven't been as pleased with her character since the entire "Jimmy" plot came about, but she had a great few years where I think it helped the show during a critical period. You can credit that to AM's improved acting and the writers changing course. Had a very early days feel to the barn scene as well.
Why did this also feel like the end for Oliver? Seemed like he was ready to pack up and move off to Star City with her. Given that's where his character is suppoed to reside it makes sense, but I'd expect some scenes with Lois, Clark and Tess before that happens. Plus, what about the huge cliffhanger where he was branded with the Omega symbol???
I will say it was odd given where they are in the season. Only 6 or 7 more to go? I hope it's 100% focus on the plot from here on out. Things I think they're going to have to resolve are:
1) The suit/flying
2) Lionel
3) Lex
4) Darkseid and minions

I enjoyed this episode as a standalone but it's the run up to the finale, they have Mack back for four episodes and they do The Matrix, Date Night and now a Hangover ripoff. If she's back for the finale, then it's not so bad and in a way I'm glad they included her in this episode since it looked like fun for the cast.

Honestly the only redeeming quality of this season is that we will get a chance to see Clark become superman ... the story in the 10th season is rather dry and in this ep the only thing interesting is Oliver getting branded ... which they do not even build upon in the following ep ... crazy writers ...

The only redeeming thing about this being the last season is that those that enjoy the show won't have to put up with posts from people that hate the show, but watch out of some ridiculous obligation, next year.
