Lana is a double agent? [Archive] - KSiteTV Television & Movie Forums

dru-zod2501

so, she's teamed up with Oliver & Clark to find Lex, and McDoomy, and whatever else they're going to do, but Lana's text message implies that her being there to fight Ollie was all part of a plan. I suppose now the easiest answer would be Lex is manipulating Lana, using her to help destroy his enemies from the inside. I hope it's not that simple though; who likes a mystery you can solve too quickly?

Plain and Simple Lex is keeping her alive and in exchange Lana is working for him. It is so "kool" to be talking about Lex again.

"Blunt", "Shady". I like your choice of words. I agree. But to me it seems like right now, Lana doesn't even want to be friends with Clark. When she said something along the lines of, "I like where I am now, it just feels right", I got the impression that she means that simply staying far away from Clark is the best choice, which I don't agree with. If they "aren't meant to end up together" like Lana says, then they should at least have a good friendship where Lana loves and supports Clark and is always there for him close by if he needs her. That would satisfy me. But, whatever. This episode left me with mixed feelings. I wasn't really happy with the way things went with Clark and Lana in this episode. And there are no new episodes until 2009.

I was thinking Tess too, just because.

and what's with that though, Lana is being ridiculous again and being sneaky and possibly back-stabbing, why is she lying to Oliver?

It was odd. I do not thing Lana's arc will alter fan's dislike of her. It certainly won't alter mine.

SUPERMANUSA

11-20-2008, 08:48 PM

Lana is a freaking Project Aries clone, under the direction and control of Lex Luthor who we saw at the end. He is the one that sent e-mails to Tess Mercer (the router explanation) and sent Lana the text message asking her if the Archer believed her. Lex is monitoring all electronic transmissions inside of Smallville and Metropolis. Somehow Lex survived the collapse of the FOS and became disabled. Now sits in a chair wired to a supercomputer. Chloe is infected with Brainiac or maybe Doomsday's mom now. Mother and son and Brainaic control the FOS.

Shadowlord367

11-20-2008, 09:10 PM

That was a very, uncomfortable scene. Aside from the fact that last year she looked more beautiful than any other season on the show and this year she lost so much of her appeal, the weird thing is that if Kristin hadn't said that she didn't want to return (as a regular) this year, they would be forced to bring Clark and Lana to a mutual friendship, so why are they making it feel as if Lana doesn't even like Clark as a friend?

Her reasons for leaving were to allow Clark to fulfill his destiny, but now it seems likes her reasons are more for her own benefit.

I doubt it's Tess. We've had no hints of her knowing anything about Ollie's other life; that's something too big for the writers to overlook.

I'd guess whoever X is is manipulating her.

I_am_LEX

11-20-2008, 09:17 PM

i think she's working with lex as well... but not becuz she wants to. in the descriptions of a furture episode, Lana seems to be alive only becuz of something at LuthorCorp. So perhaps he is strongarming her to work with him and she is doing her own thing too trying to protect clark without lex knowing... which lex knows duh, he's Lex. like i said in another thread. I think that Lex is running nearly everything except brainiac... but he knows what's going on. he is trying to be the enemy so that clark accepts who is is and becomes a hero, but he also have alterior motives... to bring clark down once he has become the hero so that the world with love him or thing they need thim and accept him.

This would make a lot of sense.

In the comics Lex would usually side with Superman against huge foes such as Brainiac & Darkseid not because he wanted to but he felt that only he should kill Superman & no one else.

bizzaro93

11-20-2008, 09:22 PM

Before Clark walked up to find Lana in the loft, she got a text saying something along the lines of, "Did the archer buy our story?". So, who do you think was on the other end? Evidently Lana is working with an unknown partner in tracking down Lex. If I had to throw out a wild guess, I might say it was Tess, but I don't really have any proof to back it up other than the fact that she is the only other person looking for him.

If you read the spoilers, it says that experiments are keeping Lana alive, who else besides Luthorcorp would do experiments. She's either working with Lex or Tess but, my guess is Lex, he probably threatened her saying that she had to help her or else he would kill Clark. How does that sound and if anybody steals my idea, I swear i'll give you a bad rep around here. So please don't steal my idea, and even if you do use it, refer back to me please. Thanks but if you honestly thought of it yourself just tell me, its just a theory.:p

I think it's Regan who wants to get Tess out of Lex's spot. Who else could have gone to such lengths to hook Lex up to the machines and control his mind? Oliver isn't doing it and Brainiac is busy tormenting Jor El so I have to believe it's Regan and I believe he was the security director when Lana was living in the mansion so they probably have a relationship and are plotting to take over Luthor Corp. It's possible that Regan is doing this without Lana and Lana and Tess are working together. Lana would have met her I suppose while married to Lex and perhaps Lana helped Tess but getting her to inherit control of Luthorcorp. It's all very complex of course but it has to be something close to that.

If some of the spoilers are true for the last episode Lana is in then her attitude towards Clark is more than understandable. I would act just the same way if I was in her place. But that's only if the god aweful spoilers are true.

Well Clark's only saved her life like... a kazillion times but as we all know Chloe & Kara aren't the only one's to have suffered from amnesia.

No Dice. Bruce is too young. Even if they pull a Smallville and make him older, he's half-way around the world learning how to be Batman. Good thought though. Way to think outside the box.

galatians221

11-20-2008, 09:54 PM

who is regan again?

He is the security director for Lex who was in charge until Tess marched into the arctic operation center and put him down and took over. Now the newspaper headline stated that he's missing. I believe he has decided to fight Tess and that he found Lex at the arctic and took him away and he's the one who has Lex hooked up. Lana may be working with Tess to find him but it's also possible that Lana is working with Regan to get rid of Tess. Regan could have arranged to steal the crystal from Clark and Regan probably knows Clark's secret either from Lex or from associating him with the Justice Leaguers he captured in the first episode.

----- Added 1 Hours and 18 Minutes later -----

I think it's Regan who wants to get Tess out of Lex's spot. Who else could have gone to such lengths to hook Lex up to the machines and control his mind? Oliver isn't doing it and Brainiac is busy tormenting Jor El so I have to believe it's Regan and I believe he was the security director when Lana was living in the mansion so they probably have a relationship and are plotting to take over Luthor Corp.

Lana would have met her I suppose while married to Lex and perhaps Lana helped Tess but getting her to inherit control of Luthorcorp. It's all very complex of course but it has to be something close to that.

Ultimately the question is how did Lex get to where he is. It had to be either Tess or Regan. Tess is constantly threatening others to find Lex so I doubt it's her and after she threatened Regan he is all of a sudden missing. Again, I think he had to find Lex in the arctic and is using him to get control of Luthercorp away from Tess.

susangail

11-20-2008, 10:01 PM

I'm hoping that it's not Lex. The idea of Lana knowingly working with him just pisses me off.

Tess might make sense, or Regan. Or someone else, as long as we aren't dragged the rest of the season to find out.

I understand Lana wanted to keep her distance, but her last scene in the hospital when she was crying, to me, felt like what she was saying was going against her heart, that she had to say those things because it was right in her mind and not in her heart. she still wants to be with clark, but knows it is not possible.

MrZeppo

11-20-2008, 11:01 PM

For some reason, I think Lex is pulling Lana's strings, maybe through Tess, who knows. The Archer comment sounded like it was pure Tess or Lex.

The question is did Lana leave Clark willingly or was she twisted into it? Or even better, does Lana really hate Clark now after suffering under Brainiac's torture?

With the writing being so much better this season I guess that is what we have yet to find out.

kentfamily

11-20-2008, 11:08 PM

I dont think Lana was being shady or blunt. You can tell Lana is hiding something, maybe something is keeping her alive and she doesnt want to let Clark know that she is dying. In one of the spoilers, didnt they say that the experiments are what is keeping her alive? Oliver has a secret,too. Is it about Lois liking Clark? That would be a very dum secret.

There is nothing wrong with things that are kept secret when its to protect Clark. Shady? I dont think so. I dont think Lana's a criminal. Only criminals are shady and people that are not to be trusted.
Clark, I assume still trusts her and loves her. Maybe shady is the wrong word for what is being explained? She was not being truthful about everything she was telling Clark. She is still pushing him away to do greater good for mankind by telling him that they were not meant to be. You can still tell that she still oves him deeply.
I loved their facial expressions, it tells alot. But, in the end, they will be friends.

Hi all! For me first post EVER, I'm going to throw out my wild speculation that Lana is actually being texted by the Legion of Super-Heroes, that she's working with them to "correct" whatever the situation is going to be in "Legion." PS3 seems to be making her a stronger and IMO likeable character--why not a force for good too? So long as she doesn't get together with Clark again! :)

If the Legion can time-travel, why not text across time?

I don't think Lex is being controlled. I think he is feeding video footage from all over the world straight into his brain to make him aware of as many details as possible so that when he battles Clark/Superman and all the other aliens of the world, he will give himself as many advantages as he can. I think those wires feeding him info will make Lex the brilliant, dangerous villian we all know. If he was being controlled, he wouldn't be watching video footage of the wedding.

I don't think it's Lex or Tess. Could it possibly be Loinel? Perhaps he's not dead. In any event, it's probably someone new to the show. But I'm sure it's one of the good guys. Protecting Clark is a#1 on Lana's list of priorities.

Lana looked really beautiful in this episode but the extensions that they gave her looked like a mop. Her beautiful hair, the sylist butchered it with extensions.
They should have just let her have the short cut that would have made her more sophisticated and mature. That dress!!!! ugh!!!! They could have done better!

They are sooo cheap with the wardrobe, you can tell, the actors wear cheap and no name brand clothes.
Even non actor people in Kansas dont wear this kind of garbage!

Lois's dress didnt look like anything either, it looks home made by someone and their singer sewing machine. Not even real sild, it was cheaper than satin.

ginnyfan

11-21-2008, 12:09 AM

I agree, I wish they'd let Lana keep her short hair. I didn't mind the wardrobe though.

I didn't really like the dialog for her scenes with Clark. I love that she came in kicking but I didn't like that her secret mission was about protecting Clark... that made me cringe.

I'm glad that Lana is going to play an action type role in the episodes to come rather than being passive, weepy and/or romantic. I'm interested in the reveal of who's texting her and what her secret agenda is.

I personally think it's Tess. "Arrow Boy" sounds more like something Tess would say than Lex. Lex is a little more refined and "Arrow Boy" seems a little flipant, something Lex is not. Also, Lana would NOT be working with Lex. No chance. Not happening. Tess would have access to stuff that would keep Lana alive through her Braniac stuff, and would also be able to help Tess since apparently Lana is now the female James Bond.

I'm not going to go and say that I know who it is. But who are the 16 people who think Lana has teamed up with Lex - to get Clark of all things!!?? IMO? No way in hell.

Of course you're entitled to your speculations and ideas, I'm NOT saying you're not, but I don't understand how you came to that conclusion from the show I've been watching. Am I missing something huge because the Lana that I've seen wouldn't go near Lex with a fifty foot pole unless she intended to beat him up with it.

Can those who voted for the first option tell me why you think this please?

Lana is working with Lex. He probably threatened to kill Clark if she didn't help him.

(Remember when Oliver hinted that Lex is the only person that probably knows how to kill Clark)

hmmmm ... im guessing she is with project cadmus after she got introduce to amanda waller. haha... there is no way after outsmarting lex and sometimes even lionel (2 luthors) that she would work for anyone .. infact... its more likely tess unknowingly works for her till she meets the real lex who then tells her to go back to driving his limo.

I'm pretty sure Lana is working with Lex. In the comics she ends up as a Lexcorp executive so I wouldn't be surprised if she's working with him and keeping him away from Clark. It was too coincidental that she was in Cuba.
Or she could be playing Lex by pretending to work with him. The triple cross works for me.

it's also possible that Lana is working with Regan to get rid of Tess.
Well I really like the idea of Regan reappearing, because I do like the mess of villians at cross purposes with each other. However, I don't see lots of evidence of Regan.

Lana is a freaking Project Aries clone, under the direction and control of Lex Luthor who we saw at the end.
I'll go for that, but if so I want her to be swapped out at the end of season 6.

It's Most likely one of these dialogs Lana told him...

"I am not convienced Lex is Alive. Just because the king dies, doesn't mean the entire empire crumbles over night... I just follow the leads here to protect Clark"

"You are Green Arrow, You are better than this...For the greater good, maybe we all need to be more like Clark"

I agree, she does. I still believe she's still trying to get revenge or something, and Lex is taking advantage of that. I think they are both working together to gain something. Lana believe she's protecting Clark, and in exchange, Lex is getting something out of the situation.

galatians221

11-22-2008, 11:22 AM

I dont think its Lex. Why would Lex be texting her when he was hooked up to all those tubes at the end of the show? He couldnt even move. Whoever it was, its the same person that helped Lana build the ISIS FOUNDATION and it was not Lex that helped her do that.
Lana wasnt dying since season 7 was she? I am really curious to see who is the one that is manipulating Lana to lie to Oliver. The set up in Cuba to get Oliver to go there or was it to get Clark to go there?
The secret Lana is keeping from Clark will about here dying and the experiments that are keeping her alive. As for Oliver, his secret is that Lois has a crush on Clark. Thats what they are keeping from Clark. Boy! That would be a dum secret wouldnt it?

I'm firmly convinced that Regan the security director who was unseated by Tess is behind Lex and as the previous post implys, it would make sense that Lana would have known him when she was married to Lex and could be in cahoots. My theory is that they are not on Lex's side but want to use him to get rid of Tess and take over Luthorcorp. Perhaps Lana marries Regan down the road but this is the most plausible scenario of what is happening now.

Then why is she telling Ollie that this is the wrong way to go? She's promoted as one of the 'new heroes' in the 2009 trailer. IMO she's protecting Clark and I think her reason for not telling Clark is a good one.

i think Lana is working for Lex. It looks like she is the one who took the video tape that was left lieing on the floor after the attack. lANA ALSO GOT THE TEXT MESSAGE " dID THE aRCHER BELIEVE YOU"

----- Added 5 Minutes later -----

I`M GOING TO CONTRADICT MY OWN POST ABOVE AND SAY THAT I THINK (AND THOUGHT WHEN IT FIRST APPEARED) that Lana was just as surprised as we were when she got the "Did the Archer Believe You" text. that would also seem to clear up the easy mystery solve that smallville writers are too good for

----- Added 6 Minutes later -----

so, she's teamed up with Oliver & Clark to find Lex, and McDoomy, and whatever else they're going to do, but Lana's text message implies that her being there to fight Ollie was all part of a plan. I suppose now the easiest answer would be Lex is manipulating Lana, using her to help destroy his enemies from the inside. I hope it's not that simple though; who likes a mystery you can solve too quickly?

I guess I'll just have to start calling her, Lana "Enter the Dragon" Lang, from now on. ;) :D

I guess technically she is Chun-Lana since she is making that Street Fighter Movie.

IMO Lana is working for Tess. Both may be working for lex indirectly, but I doubt that Lex would waste millions of dollars on his new little command center to just have a 36' plasma screen tv to watch wedding tapes and send out texts to Lana's cell phone. I believe Tess is being sent orders to force Lana to keep Green Arrow off of Lex's trail. I think Lex is too busy right now setting up some bad ass plan to rid the earth of Clark. Maybe controlling DOOMSDAY and giving him an army of meteor freaks. I think this is possible since Lex is now linked to the FOS and Doomsday and brainiac are also linked to it as well. I think the end to the season will be a good one with JLA vs Legion of Doom.

Lana would never work for Lex. That's her ex husband and she knows that he knows CK's secret. Lana is out for herself and secondarily to protect Clark but she is trying to get control of Luthorcorp from Lex and Tess and I believe Regan is helping her. Someone had to get Lex out of the arctic and rig him up with all of the gizmos that are being used to tap his brain. There's no one out there other than Regan who could have accomplished that.

Regan could have gotten Lex out & had him set up in that room, but I doubt we'll see him again because Tess probably had him killed. If Lana was working with Tess, then it would mean that Tess would know Lex's location and wouldn't be wasting time in the Arctic anymore. I'm pretty sure Lana is working with Lex to keep him away from Clark for now. And I think Lex is being fed information from around the world so that when he is ready to strike, he's at an advantage.

The DP headline stated that Regan was "missing". Tess had just put him down implying that she might have him killed and then he went missing. Tess is always threatening people to find Lex so I just think that Regan found him and took off with him and is pulling Lex's strings (literally). Lex is the victim here and Lana would love that. I can't believe that Lana would be working WITH Lex under any circumstances but working against him is very believable.

Lex is not in charge; he is a vegetable hooked up to machines and somehow has brain wave activity that is being used by Regan and perhaps Lana. Lex is working for them, they are not working for Lex. They are using Lex to get control of Luthercorp away from Tess.

The reason I don't believe Lex is a victim is because he had videos being fed to his brain. If someone wanted him restrained, why show him videos & keep him informed of what's going on in the world? Better yet, why keep him alive? Lana saw what happened when she tried to do the same to Lionel using Marilyn last season, and it didn't work.

Also Regan didn't strike me as someone who would want to harm Lex or hold him back. He seemed very suspicious of Tess, having a "Who the heck are you & who says you have any say as to what goes on in Luthorcorp" reaction. He seemed dedicated to Lex because Lex trusted him with the most vital & private information (the cryptograph, the orb, the FOS) & Lex took care of him & never threatened to kill him.

Good point. So perhaps Regan is trying to help Lex instead of taking over Luthorcorp for himself. That makes sense but I still think it's Regan behind it all. Lana may or may not be involved.

I think she has already met Tess Mercer somehow their paths crossed in the past maybe Lana came into contact with her in trying to find a cure and Tess like Lex always has a hidden agenda. Maybe Tess offered her a miracle Cure in exchange for joining her freak army. Tess is recruiting Meteor infected people! And Lana said "Hell to the know I'd rather die protecting clark and taking you with me!" Remember Lana said to Clark in "Wrath" I'm doing what you could never do" You should have done this along time ago!!

It still fits that Regan would be working for Lex I suppose but I don't think he'd get Lana to work with Lex. It makes more sense to me that Regan is using Lex to unseat Tess. Lana would have known Regan from her time married to Lex. Lana could be working with Regan to take over Luthorcorp. That's the most plausible explanation imho.

That's plausible. I don't think however that Tess had him killed. I rewatched the episode where she read the headline that Regan was "missing". I don't think that she would kill him but rather it's more likely that he is plotting against her. He could be doing that out of loyalty to Lex or for his own purposes. He was in charge and then Tess demoted him and threatened him. I don't think that arc is over.

Whoever she is texting, is the same individual that helped her set up ISIS Foundation. It's not, Lex becauseIsis was built to spy on Lex. At the end, was that supposed to be Lex, attached to all these tubes and stuff? So, maybe it is Tess that Lana is working for. Tess has found Lex and keeping attached to all these tubes.

Tess came out of nowhere and has what she wants. There is no advantage to her to bring Lex back or to cooperate with Lana. I suspect Regan is trying to oust Tess and is controlling Lex in order to restore him or replace him with himself. If it's the latter then he would have known Lana from the Mansion and may have brought her in to take over. Wouldn't it be something if Lana came back to run Luthorcorp???

I know the indications are that Lana and Tess will seemingly meet for the first time, but I suspect they have been working together, albeit in a relationship in which neither one trusts to the other. Remember - both Lana and Tess have a relationship with Grohl - this is how they could have met before...JMO

The more I think about Lana's scenes in Bride, the more I'm convinced that she and Dr. Grohl have Lex. I believe he sent the text message "Did the archer believe you?" in reference to her saying "I'm not convinced that Lex is alive".

He warned Lana about Lex before he disappeared. Remember Lana’s conversation with him in the limo right before he gave her the briefcase:

Lana: Middle of the night, mysterious meeting, suspicious briefcase? You normally just call me with an update, Dr. Grohl. Why all the intrigue?
Dr. Grohl: The precautions aren't for dramatic effect.
Lana: Are you in some sort of danger?
Dr. Grohl: I think we both are. The cds contain all my research on the box -- every test result, every theory I've written.
Lana: You're quitting.
Dr. Grohl: I'm disappearing.
Lana: Don't you think that's a bit extreme?
Dr. Grohl: You'll find that when you're in as deep as we are with the Luthors, they won't let you just walk away. We've started military testing.
Lana: I thought we were still in the analysis phase. Lex didn't tell me that we were already testing with the military.
Dr. Grohl: Forgive me, but I believe that there's a lot that Lex neglects to tell you.
Lana: You could have just left. Why come to me?
Dr. Grohl: Because I'm not the only one I'm worried about. Despite our differences, Miss Lang, I thought you deserved a warning. I'm getting as far away from the Luthors as possible. I suggest you do the same.

Tess was also mysteriously able to lure him out of hiding. Why would he trust Tess any more than he trusts Lex?

He also would have the knowledge to keep Lex alive.

He could easily have stolen the crystal and sent it to Clark.

Lana didn't seem too suprised when Oliver told her that Lex knew his secret. If she had Lex, he would have told her.

So, what do you think about that theory?
