Huge Inconsistency

[kryptolad]

Lana was wearing her dress at the farm? Are you serious? She was just at the Smallvile Medical Center in a hospital gown!

[ktina]

I thought that too, maybe no one brought her a change of clothes. So she had to leave the hospital in what she wore in

[erikamichelle614]

That's what I'm guessing.. Her leg seemed better, so she left the hospital already and I'm sure she didn't wanna leave in that oh-so-glamorous hospital gown.

[biggkoz]

Hosptial/ Did you already see the episode? Im watching it now.

[Liquid-Prince]

That's not a huge inconsistency... She left the hospital and didn't have a change of clothes. Why do you guys always try and insist errors when there is none...

[thehenry89]

not to mention she's been wearing the same clothes for two days in a row.

[hemmy]

QFT, jeez you guys please actually worry about something worthwhile.

I didn't even notice until you guys mentioned it.

[Aloof]

Lana's leg sure healed fast!

[skylar]

Lana's leg sure healed fast!

Sure did :lol: Whats up with that.

[Kal26]

Well, generally when your in the hospital, you wear a hospital gown,...............but you don't take it home with you,..............so unless you have the foresight to pack a change of cloths before you get injured, you have to wear out, what you wore in. That's what I'm guessing happened. :confused:

[biggkoz]

Are you talking about the end of bride she was wearing something different?

[stenochick]

Lana was wearing her dress at the farm? Are you serious? She was just at the Smallvile Medical Center in a hospital gown!

Maybe because they don't let you leave the hospital wearing one of their gowns. You have to change back into whatever you had on unless someone is able to bring you a change of clothes from home.

[lm1212]

It's not that huge of a deal. I'd rather put an old dress back on rather than a hospital gown. They had more important things to worry about than attire anyway.

[llk6165]

How is she walking around in 3-inch heels when her leg was getting stiched up at the end of Bride? I'm a Clois fan anyway, so I'll pan on Lana any chance I get.

[mrw66855]

I found much bigger plot holes than a black dress like I do have a problem with the fact that they brought Chloe's memory back and never really explain why or how it happened. Another problem I had was doomsday brainiac, said 12 days, so are we supposed to assume 12 days went by since brainiac's destruction for doomsday to break out of his shelter. One more thing, how can the fortress be black still brainiac has been sucked out of Chloe and been taken from time itself. So how can the fortress be black still.

[redkryptoniteisthebest]

Sure did :lol: Whats up with that.

I saw her leg still being messed up.

[llk6165]

Good eye. I'll have to try to look for that if I get to watch a 2nd time. But everyone is right, it is more about the plot.

Good points. The only one I can address is Doomy. During the exorcism, Dommy's cocoon cracked open. I assume this happened because they were extracting Brainiac out of Chloe. So instead of 12 days passing, it was in real time that Doomy was released from his ice cocoon. I will check it out when I rewatch it.

:eek: Exactly! Lana escaped a Horrifying Catastrophe that happened at her best girlfriend's wedding reception. She managed to only sustain minor injuries, so the first thing she did upon her release was to remove the hospital gown and to put back on the clothes she had on when she was admitted for treatment before leaving. :rolleyes: It's an understandable action to take since I don't believe she'd brought along a change of clothing for the celebration at the farm. Why would she? :confused:

Clark returned to the farm with the same dress shirt and slacks he wore for the wedding as well. He could change clothes at 'superspeed', but his priority was to go look for Chloe. Lois left to go with Jimmy to a hospital in Star City in her bridesmaid dress without a change of clothing. I would think that All who were present were in SHOCK, but especially Clark, Lois, Lana and eventually Chloe when she returns as herself, then of course, Jimmy when he recovers. What they were all wearing afterwards was truly Not an Issue, IMHO. :\

[smallvilleusedtobegood]

I noticed the clothes thing too and was like WTF?! Do any of the writers check anything anymore? So Lana is perfect and is a genius at everything (the show's take, not mine), but she doesn't have a change of clothes? She has everything, including technology none of us have ever heard of. Major guffaw on the writers' part. And I see her leg is perfectly fine now after being devastatingly injured last episode. I guess the writers are too busy making the episodes horrible to check on clothing. Where's 'Steve Wardrobe'?!

[Iluvgreen]

I was thinking that too. I thought her leg was broken or something.

Lana obviously didn't come to Smallville with bags of luggage, though. She probably just flew into Smallville like 2 hours before the wedding, went to the store, picked up some clothing to put in her apartment (or wherever she's living) and wore the dress to Chloe's wedding. She obviously planned on going back to her apartment to change before she went to sleep (which is why she had the other outfits the next day probably), but the wood pillar hit her and she was immediately taken to the hospital in her dress. She wasn't going to hassle Clark or Oliver to get her an extra pair of clothes because there were more important things at hand (like Imzadia said).

It's not like she was wearing a cast last episode or anything. The doctor just seemed to do something to her leg and maybe a few hours passed (making it probably around midnight or so) and she went back to the barn and looked at the flower. She was capable of walking after the pillar hit her anyways (when she ran to get the Kryptonite that fell on Clark in Bride).

HeeHee. Your WTF comment makes me giggle. :lol: That was my initial reaction too. I almost enjoy these threads more than the show. Hey, I just figured out what LOL means...obviously I am new. :o

[silveralex]

why would she bring a change of clothes to a wedding? ("here's your gift, Chloe, and here's my suitcase") This is such a non-issue.

And IMO, she can wear that dress the rest of the episodes she's in. Yowza ... :)

The 12 days thing..was odd I'm just guessing they meant 12 hours and the line was read wrong. I have no clue why the fortress is still black, maybe doomday's presence.

But shouldn't she at least be limping??

Exactly...This is a continuation of the Bride episode where Lana and Clark returns to the barn with the same clothes on that they wore at the wedding. Not hard to figure out.

[llk6165]

Hey Snowbird, that is a great picture of Welling on your icon

[Sunny8]

I don't think people are trying to find anything wrong all the time on purpose. Sometimes people just don't see what you see and sometimes things need to be explained.

[SupermanRox]

Makes sense to me.

[Chloe>All]

I see no inconsistency here. She was wearing the dress because...



...she looks great in it! Duh! :P

(BTW, I'm no Lana supporter, all I'm saying is KK is gorgeous)

[stenochick]

I agree. I think they actually paid a lot of attention to detail. Everyone in Legion was wearing their wedding clothes because no one went to sleep that night. They were all in shock and doing what they needed to do until the next day.

When Lana did change her clothes she was wearing the same black jacket that she had on in Cuba. It is very practical to pack an overnight bag with a few articles of black clothing to mix and match.

I think she flew in Ollie's jet in her kung fu outfit and then bought a black dress for the wedding in Metropolis after the plane landed, along with some toiletries and makeup, etc.

She got ready at ISIS and is living there until she decides that she needs to secure a furnished apartment with her loads of cash.

----- Added 3 Minutes later -----

Actually, now that we see Chloe leaving for Star City, Lana will probably stay there since the apartment is now vacant with Lois, Jimmy, and Chloe all in Star City.

[supercatmom]

I have posted about this already. OK I'll give that she had nothing else to wear when she left the hospital but her leg showed no wound or a bandage. She didn't even limp a little.

[Kal26]

I think that's going to be explained in future episodes.

[llk6165]

As long as she doesn't stay with Clark... (in case you haven't guessed, I'm all about Clois). Anyway when did Lana learn all that martial arts stuff. I thought that was Lois' thing.
Anyway, this chatter is fun to tide us over until the next episode (or in my case until the next Cloisode)

[JFalcon]

Clark was still wearing the same clothes he had on. How big an inconsistency was that?

[llk6165]

Clark was still wearing the same clothes he had on. How big an inconsistency was that?

Here an inconsistency, but is about me - I was annoyed with Lana for wearing the same clothes, but when I saw Clark for the first time, in the same clothes, my first thought was "He looks gooood."

Honestly, I am annoyed Lana for wearing the same clothes, because I rooting for Clois. If Lois was in the show wearing the same dress and kissed Clark in the barn, I would have cheered.

Ok enough honesty, I am back to my microscopic examination of Lana. I still say her walking around in 3 inch heels after getting her leg stitched up at the hospital was an inconsistency. (although I did like the haircut - but who has time for a haircut when you are on the run like that and learning martial arts and tracking Lex to allegedly protect Clark.

And I'm mad at Oliver for bringing her back if he knows there are Clois feelings out there, which is what he implied when he told Lois that Clark needs him, but I suppose I should save that for the Bride thread.

[THE"Lurker"]

Lana was wearing her dress at the farm? Are you serious? She was just at the Smallvile Medical Center in a hospital gown!

Seriously people Come one?

Lets not stop there they forgot to explain why Clark didnt change his clothes between episodes either:rolleyes:

Its not that big a deal really nor a HUGE Inconsitency UGH!

[ClarkyBoy14]

PLOT HOLES :confused:

I think he broke out before the time was up (maybe because Brainiac is gone?), because in "Turbulence" Davis is back, and wasn't this crystal thing supposed to get rid of the Davis Bloome persona?

[SparkleforSmallville]

I thought I heard Clark tell the LOSH that an Alien had already destroyed the Barn once tonight. So, I think it was the same night as the Wedding? Hence, wearing the same clothes.
I'm sure Lana got alot of pain medication at the hospital, so she wasn't limping, and of course she would put on the clothes she came in with.

----- Added 16 Minutes later -----

Yeah, I just watched the scene again, Clark to Rokk:"I don't care about your Code and I don't care about your Legion, this is the 2nd attack I've had in this barn tonight!"

[kentfamily]

The reason Lana's in the same dress is that is was still the same night after the horrible event. The hospital let her go after they helped her with the leg it wasnt a serious injury I guess, so the hospital let her go. I remembered injuring my ankle, they put me in a soft cast and let me go. If its not life threatening hospitals really dont keep you in overnight, at least thats the hospitals here are like that. They suture you up and youre on your way.
Clark told Lana to go get some rest and she refused, it mustve been late that night. Clark was in the same suit too but withoutthe jacket!

[llk6165]

OK. After reviewing all the comments and giving this a lot (aka too much) thought, I have finally come to an understanding about why Lana wearing the same dress bothers me - and it has nothing to do with my Clois philosophy. Here is why:

It's not so much Lana's dress, but here entire look. She looked like she just came from the salon instead of the hostpial. Hair perfect, makeup perfect. Dress and shoes in perfect condition. Nothing torn, nothing dirty, nothing wrinkled. No limp. That, for me, is the "huge inconsistency" No one would look like that (not even on TV)

At least when Clark walked back into the barn he looked sexy (uh... I mean rumpled up). :o

And certainly if that was Lois, she would have been a mess with dirt on her face and hair going in all different directions, shoes all scuffed and maybe a broken heel for good measure. More realistic.

[BULLITT]

It's like prison - the day you get released, they give you back the clothes you 'checked-in' with.

If you look at the scene where she is looking at Chloe's Bouquet, (right before Clark shows up) you can clearly see her dress is bloodstained by her thigh.
Clark didn't look too ruffled after superspeeding across two Continents :lol:

I need to watch it again, because I looked, but didn't see it. Was it the left thigh, because that is the one the doctor was working on in Bride

Also, tell me why I am thinking about this so much???:\

Just to be on the same page, I was referring to when he got back from the hospital at the begining of the show. That's where I thought he looked sexy (uh I mean rumpled a bit)

[SparkleforSmallville]

Oh yeah! He looked sooo sexy:p
He said that he had just spanned two Continents looking for Chloe.

By the left thigh, the dress was bloodstained.

thanks for the clarification:cool:

[optinox]

makes sense to me, she had no change of clothes when she went to the hospital. She was just getting a checkup to make sure she was ok, once the Doc looked at her and said 'your fine you can go home now', she put on her dress and went back to farm. Did anyone expect the scene to be with her in the hospital gown instead of the dress or what, lol?

[llk6165]

OK, I'm curious about this - Some of us are bothered by the same dress and some of say no big deal. I wonder if there is a connection between how we feel about the dress and how we feel about Clana.

Me, I'm all about Clois. So is that the underlying reason behind why the dress thing bothers me? I'd be interested in seeing if most of the Cloisers are bothered by the dress, and if most of the Claners think it is no big deal.

"Things that make you go HMMMM"

[Kal26]

I'm for Clois, but my feelings on the relationships of the show have nothing to do with the reality that if you go into a hospital without a change of clothes you have to leave wearing the same thing you were wearing when you went in. Did people actually want to see Lana in the barn in a backless hospital gown? That would make no sense to me, and would be cause for a debate on hospital procedure.

LOL -:lol: backless hospital gown. :lol: I'm for Clois too, so you are right - nothing backless. Good Point. I'm over my initial reaction about the dress.
But what did you think about her hair and makeup in place. Somehow, I think if it was Lois, they would have at least messed her hair up a bit.

[pizzahead2490]

Lana's leg sure healed fast!

:lol: yeah she is not even limping

[SnowBird]

Some people are nit-picky. Why try to compare Lois to Lana. People in this thread have explained sufficiently about Lana being in the same dress. I watched her scene again and I noticed a slight limp when she started to walk. Pain killers will help. I believe she had a comb and make-up in her purse like most women. If I was going to see Clark, I'd fix my hair & make-up. I really don't see anything to complain about.

[redkryptoniteisthebest]

Thats not an inconsistency, thats normal. Whenever you go to a hospital, if you don't have any other changes of clothes, you leave with the clothes you came with.

[SnowBird]

Hey Snowbird, that is a great picture of Welling on your icon

Thanks...Clark's pic is from Noir but I don't why it is in color. I made the avatar.

Don't know about the hair and makeup. It didn't look that messed up when she went to the hospital.

[Drakaun]

Holy crap I am wearing the same thing I was wearing yesterday today. My life is a huge inconsistency. I wasn't aware my own life was filled with so many plot holes and inconsistencies. Really guys? Really you are going to nitpick about something so trivial? This is stupid and has a perfectly reasonable explanation as several people have pointed out. In all fairness this would be the equvilent of me complaining that there was a huge inconsistency in this episode because Chloe was acting out of character....

[umm]

I am the first to admit that the TPTB make mistakes where they shoundn't have, and more frequently than they ought to, but this time, well even I can't see anything wrong with the fact that Lana wore the same gala dress after she got out of the hospital, mainly because she couldn't have possibly had the foresight of having extra clothes with her incase she would be mauled by yet another freak!

[llk6165]

You're right about the dress - I'm passed that now, but she was definitely wearing hoisery. To me that totally didn't work considering her leg was supposed to be injured. But anyway, on to the next episode.

[supercatmom]

I totally agree about the plothole. Maybe she put the dress on because that's all she had at the Hospital but where was the wound,stitches or a bandage on her leg.

About DD, when Brainiac was extracted from Chloe the cocoon was broken, it had not been 7 days and therefore Davis has not been totally transformed into Doomday.

[Kal26]

He's always been Doomsday, and always will. He's never been human, and the form of Davis is a ruse. The time in the cocoon was supposed to transform him into beast mode full time. So, now he will still go back and forth.
