i love chloe and i know she might have gotten a little bit crazy this season. but i really think she did that to jimmy just to save him from getting killed by doomsday.

[unfocused]

Does Chloe know that Davis is Doomsday?

[disciples of zod]

^ yes.

~K

[green_arrow_girl358]

yes? and there's nothing being done about it?

[myankskent]

Chloe does not know that Davis is Doomsday yet so tasering Jimmy was very extreme.

[Clana_4ever2005]

She thought Jimmy was really high on drugs and was seriously going to hurt Davis, she was stopping him from doing something he'd regret. Davis was the one chained up, not Jimmy.

[Smallville6]

What? this makes no sense...Chloe doesnt know Davis is Doomsday so she's obviously not protecting Jimmy from anything..

[unfocused]

She wasn't protecting Jimmy, she's a bad wife remember?

[Lilah]

Does Chloe know that Davis is Doomsday?

I didn't get that impression. Why would she help Earth's ultimate destroyer, who she knows is on this planet to kill her best friend..... Yeah I don't think she knows....

[Candice]

Chloe's behavior in this scene was extreme and confusing.

[Lilah]

She wasn't protecting Jimmy, she's a bad wife remember?

LOL.:rotfl: With spouses like her, who needs enemies.

[Night_Hawk90]

i didnt realize that tasering somebody you love is a great way of showing you care about them.

[Poyntz]

She was trying to stop him from doing something that he would regret later (and hurt him in the long run) for all she knew he was having hallusination and had Davis Handcuffed and about to clobber him.

[yomama]

What Clana4ever2005 said. I thought Chloe said that she was trying to stop Jimmy from doing something he'd regret e.g. killing Davis with a lead pipe! She thought he was heped up on goofballs afterall.

[rehana/chole]

ok i agree she her slef said 2 davis i wounder if he hadnot met me he would not get hurt or some thing like that she loves jimmy just not trust him who would he crazy b4 this ep he alway jealious it annoying i am glad chimmy over . and jim act sickoo who would u belive d guy with medical degree or werido husban on 2 much med

[Dyanara]

If someone I love his going crazy and killing people, you better believe I am tasering them.

[smallvillereporter27]

What? this makes no sense...Chloe doesnt know Davis is Doomsday so she's obviously not protecting Jimmy from anything..

She was protecting him from making a bad mistake. She thought he was about to clobber Davis and that's something she thought he would regret.

[GottaLoveHotSuperHeros]

It actually makes more sense to me that she was protecting Davis from getting hurt, not keeping Jimmy from making a bad mistake (though I have no idea what he was about to do).

She was HELPING DAVIS, NOT JIMMY.

[Night_Hawk90]

If someone I love his going crazy and killing people, you better believe I am tasering them.

who did he kill? all he did was handcuff him i could understand if jimmy was raising the bar to hit him in the head again but all he was doing was standing there. So chloe tasering him was not necessary at all

[GottaLoveHotSuperHeros]

hmmmm... now I'm thinking it may have just been bad writing, added for dramatic effect & the whole YOU SAVED ME thing.

[Dyanara]

No he was getting ready to hit Davis in the head with a pipe, that is dangerous and could kill somebody. Not to mention it could get Jimmy put in jail. Chloe in her mind was preventing all of this.

[thehenry89]

I don't think her intentions were bad, but I do think her judgment in that situation was flawed.

[Kevin24]

Chloe should have just yelled at Jimmy to stop. The worst part was that she didn't even check on Jimmy but her first concern was Davis. Jimmy is still recovering from his injuries and she tases him and leaves him there on the floor to comfort Davis?

Come on Chloe...

[DigitalKing]

Come on Chloe...I guess in Splinter she should have made sure Clark was alright after getting greenK'd instead of checking on Jonathan, the person he was attacking and accusing of random stuff he had hallucinated.

[kitty1]

Thank you for seeing that. I agree.

[Kevin24]

Clark is an alien who can destroy buildings with his bear hands and having a little green k on him isn't gonna kill him.

Jimmy is a fragile human being who is recovering from near fatal wounds and he wasn't even supposed to be out of the hospital and she tazed him. He was on pain medication and she tazed him......who knows what that could have done to him.

[chlo-el]

What? this makes no sense...Chloe doesnt know Davis is Doomsday so she's obviously not protecting Jimmy from anything..

She's protecting Jimmy from himself.

[MeKa]

Jimmy's addicted to meds. The only way Chloe could shake the fog off Jimmy and to save him was to use a taser.

Chloe's attraction and trust in Davis maybe be "wrong" but she's basically caught between two Kryptonians and Jimmy - her only connection to all that's "normal". In her own right she saves peoples lives (from reporting to ISIS) and that's part of who she is. Jimmy is still insecure of the relationship she has with Clark and now Davis (Clark's dark mirror).

[DigitalKing]

Clark is an alien who can destroy buildings with his bear hands and having a little green k on him isn't gonna kill him.Actually, yes it will. SV's played around with this significantly, but he's said that greenK hurts worse than broken ribs. There's a reason why he almost instantly crumples and writhes on the ground when it's around.

Further, this "bad wife" stuff is simply nonsense. During Jimmy's break, Chloe has made statements indicating that she's been visiting Jimmy in Offscreenville, which is the same place Oliver learning Clark's alien heritage happened. Just because something's important, it doesn't mean we're going to explicitly see it happen.

[Mr.Magic]

Chloe is a whacko.
Instead of trusting her husband, and trying to find out if something sinister might be going on, she just believed Davis.
It's a good thing she gave up on being a reporter. No instinct or drive whatsover.

[Night_Hawk90]

I guess in Splinter she should have made sure Clark was alright after getting greenK'd instead of checking on Jonathan, the person he was attacking and accusing of random stuff he had hallucinated.

actually when chloe used green k on clark, he was strangling jonathan and it really didnt affect him much as he still managed to superspeed outside the door. As somone pointed out one's a superpowered alien, the other is a human.

[Lazy Boy]

Nah, she tassered Jimmy because he was turning into a drug-crazed pyscho. She had to protect Metropolis from him.

[SV'S_immortal_hero]

No he was getting ready to hit Davis in the head with a pipe, that is dangerous and could kill somebody. Not to mention it could get Jimmy put in jail. Chloe in her mind was preventing all of this.

did you see the same scene i did im sure jimmy saw davis break 1 of the handcuffs which scared jimmy into picking up the pipe again to defend himself with :cool:

[Iluvgreen]

Well for one.... she didn't know that Jimmy was about to die!!!!!

[H.B.]

chloe saved herself and jimmy doomsday would have eaten them both

I don't think she knows he's doomsday yet. I think she took Jimmy down considering the circumstances of the situation. In Chloe perspective Jimmy was drugged up and was about to beat up her friend Davis. She was helping Davis

Come on Chloe...


I think your wrong I just watched it 20 mins agao she went to Jimmy first before she tended to Davis.

[Mickey_Bickey]

I didn't vote, because there wasn't an option to "save Davis" which is why Chloe tasered him to begin with. It didn't have much to do with Jimmy at all.

[Timester]

The question should be why the hell Chloe walks around with a taser?

[Tompouce]

I didn't vote, because there wasn't an option to "save Davis" which is why Chloe tasered him to begin with. It didn't have much to do with Jimmy at all.
You are right. I voted for the good option. The only thing which is intrigues me about Chloe in this epi is : why she didn't speak with Clark about her fear for Jimmy ? She is so lost and lonely with this weight. Why Davis and not Clark ? She had opportunities to do it, Clark asked her twice what was going on,...and she answered everything was okay. I really wonder why...There is something weird in her attitude towards the situation.

[unfocused]

She thought Jimmy was really high on drugs and was seriously going to hurt Davis, she was stopping him from doing something he'd regret. Davis was the one chained up, not Jimmy.

So if she cared about Jimmy more than Davis, why did she go make sure Davis was alright instead of Jimmy? I mean, Davis was still conscious and talking, but Jimmy was out cold.

Let's not forget that Jimmy had just almost been killed, was in a coma, was in physical pain, may not have been in his right mind, was obviously having major problems with Davis, and he is her husband.



EDIT:

think your wrong I just watched it 20 mins agao she went to Jimmy first before she tended to Davis.

You're right, Chloe did check Jimmy for a minute before going over to Davis.

I still don't know why she had to taze him, that's a ridiculous thing to do to your husband who has just almost died and was still obviously affected by it.

Very strange! I agree, her attitude was just bizarre! Supposedly we'll find out, but it was puzzling. Also, was it a foreshadow when Doomsday killed her in Jimmy's dream that that's what's going to happen in the finale .

Maybe so. Hopefully, we'll get to actually see it next time, lol.

[Lauren_17]

First, Chloe doesn't know Davis is the ultimate destroyer.

Second, it wasn't unreasonable for Chloe to believe that Jimmy was "high" on drugs. Especially since he had "hallucinated" Chloe being killed. She saw that he wasn't in his right mind earlier.

Third, Chloe, not knowing the whole situation, probably assumed Jimmy was about to whack Davis over the head with a pipe. Since she doesn't know Davis is super-human, it could have killed him.

Fourth, I'm glad Jimmy left Chloe. Chlart is still possible :D

Chloe and Bart :D

[Dyanara]

HaHa! Chloe and Bart! Oh I am so on that bandwagon now.

[unfocused]

it wasn't unreasonable for Chloe to believe that Jimmy was "high" on drugs.

But it was unreasonable for her to taze him, refuse to investigate his claim that Davis is a murderer while accepting that Jimmy might just be hallucinating, and take Davis' side over her own husbands. She's been married to Jimmy almost as long as she has known Davis. And for Chloe to take the side of a man that has strong feelings for her, feelings that she knows about, hug him right after Jimmy claimed he was a murderer, and hurt Jimmy to protect him, is very unreasonable.

Yes, Chloe DID hurt Jimmy to protect Davis. I've never seen a worse wife than Chloe. Thankfully, Jimmy got his time to shine and used it to completely humiliate Chloe, as she has been doing to him since the day he came to Smallville.

The child is now a man putting away his childish toys.

[IcedSun]

Well Metropolis doesn't seem a very safe city from what we can see ;) , she did get kidnapped at her engagement party

[skeptic55]

I just wanted to point out how ridiculous the writing is on this show sometimes--unless they want to portray Chloe as a completely irrational moron.

So Chloe appears, sees that Jimmy has Davis chained up and is about to hit him. Then instead of reacting by yelling "Jimmy! Stop!" or running over to grab his arm or anything that actually makes sense as an initial reaction--she pulls out a taser, quietly sneaks up on Jimmy and knocks him out without even confronting him about what he's doing?

That makes no sense from both a logistical and common-sense standpoint of what a rational-thinking person would actually do in that situation. If she thought he was making a mistake, it would've been far quicker to stop him from swinging the bar at Davis by grabbing his arms, tackling him, or simply yelling at him. Instead she creeps up and tasers her own husband? Keep in mind that tasers can potentially cause irreparable damage or even kill someone that's ill (or injured, like her husband). Makes absolutely no sense.

[dotsie23]

I'm not sure what Chloe was and so I didn't vote either. I know she and Clark are treating Jimmy pretty much like they did Lana. Making him think those things he saw wasn't real in order to protect Clark's identity. Something was bound to happen as it did in Turbulence.

Yeah.....And by the very same guy who kidnapped her for whom she has a lot of compassion for.:D

[SupermanRox]

I was also wondering what Chloe was doing walking around with a tazer. I would like to think that she was trying to save Jimmy and doing what was in his best interests.

[Dyanara]

Screw Jimmy's best interest, in Chloe's mind she ain't got no job and her husband is a freakin photographer. How the heck were they going to hire a good lawyer for Jimmy?

It doesn't make sense unless they are trying to show us that Chloe cares more about Davis than Jimmy. It would make sense if Clark was the one chained to that pole, because she would be protecting is secret, but, as far as we know, Chloe doens't know who Davis really is. Like you said, it makes no sense that a non aggressive girl like Chloe would go around tasing people. She should have pushed Jimmy aside, try to talk some sense into him and then cry for help if that didn't work. But no, she didn't, she tazed him on the same day he was relieved from the hospital.

[skugers]

Nah, she brings Jimmy down to protect Davis. She verbalized that. I don't think she's convinced Davis is Doomsday but she actually thought that Jimmy could hurt Davis. So she helped Davis instead of trusting her husband.

[Kalista]

A taser is pretty tame when you consider that Chloe carries flash bang grenades in the trunk of her car.:lol:

I don't think it's strange for Chloe to carry a taser.

[umm]

What? this makes no sense...Chloe doesnt know Davis is Doomsday so she's obviously not protecting Jimmy from anything..


Firstly, she doesn't know Davis is Doomsday who as far as she is concerned is just a very helpful and caring paramedic, secondly, from her prespective her husband was about to commit murder and she, as any wife does, prefers having her husband at home, instead of a two by two jailcell, so for the time being, she is a good wife, who actually did save her husband from making a mistake, cos even if Davis is a monster, police and the law stillf rown on taking the law into own hands as Jimmy was about to do!

[SV'S_immortal_hero]

even a freakin photographer can earn a high wage depending on the photo they take :D so please do some research before you insult a persons job :cool:

[Poyntz]

She also had a Tazer in Tomb. She found it and asked lana if she could borrow it. lana said its yours.. and she said "wow i got cool stuff" LOL

[unfocused]

Firstly, she doesn't know Davis is Doomsday who as far as she is concerned is just a very helpful and caring paramedic
No, as far as Chloe is concerned Davis is a good looking man, whom she has kissed and hugged, that has really strong feelings for her. He's also the man Jimmy, Clark and he himself has claimed to be a murderer.


, secondly, from her prespective her husband was about to commit murder and she, as any wife does, prefers having her husband at home, instead of a two by two jailcell, so for the time being, she is a good wife, who actually did save her husband from making a mistake, cos even if Davis is a monster, police and the law stillf rown on taking the law into own hands as Jimmy was about to do!
Chloe should have yelled at him, or grabbed him and pulled him away. She shouldn't have risked killing her own husband by tazing him just after he woke up from a coma, still in pain.

Bottom line is Chloe hurt her husband to protect an accused murderer. She didn't even hesitate to hurt Jimmy. Yet, she hesitated to pull away from Davis while he was kissing her...

And now it all makes sense why Chloe would hurt her own husband to protect Davis.

[xrayvision]

She rendered her own husband helpless not far from where the man who he (Jimmy) saw kill someone just broke out of his chains/handcuffs.

Even though she was in a no-win situation, her judgement was wrong because she sided with someone she knew was interested in her (and who crossed the line by kissing her) instead of her own husband.

Suppose Clark didn't believe Chloe in Tomb and thought she was hallucinating & let the doctors, or better yet Michael (that psycho orderly) do whatever they/he wanted to do to her. Everyone would have been screaming at what a lowlife Clark would have been. Clark trusted Chloe in her delirium (as he trusted Lex in Shattered/Asylum), and Chloe should have trusted Jimmy in this case.

Clark is a moron & a mere shell of who he once was. He has none of the confidence he used to back in seasons 1-3. This Clark would never have the brains to put together the plan he had in Shattered and follow up with the execution. I was so proud of him back then, even though parts of that plan backfired. It was a very noble attempt and he truly tried to do everything he could. Had he been a progressed version of that self now, he would be so much more enjoyable to watch.

we're entitled to see characters as we please but i dont share your negative view of clark, chloe was a crutch for clark for a few seasons which is why this season has been so drastic in clarks progression under the current showrunners

[unfocused]

Yeah I enjoyed to see Clark with his own conscience back then. I still enjoy him now, it's Lana and Chloe that I am annoyed with. Yes, I believe they make Clark look stupid in so many cases, but I won't blame him for it. Those girls are used as plot devices for other reasons, either to further the current storyline or to serve their personal fanbase. Well Clark is often the victim caught in the crosshairs. Making Chloe seem smarter than both Superman and Supergirl is NOT good for either of the Superman or Supergirl characters. Making Chloe and Lana know Clark's destiny before even he does, well that's just pushing it.

We don't need these characters written this way. Chloe can be intelligent without being written as supposedly more intelligent than both Clark and Kara. Or she can just be written out. Clark isn't the only one that needs to man up and grow a pair, TPTB needs to as well. Cut the problem at the root, in the finale.

That's a matter of opinion I don't agree with. Clark is growing in self confidence and learning. He saved more individuals in Metropolis this episode in one day than ever before. It is Clark at the computer at the DP and he doesn't have to always run to someone else for information. Many fans state how he is progressing this season. Chloe is going to be out of a sidekick job before you know it. I want Chloe to be happy in her future life but I have a feeling if she is still here in S9, it won't include Clark as much. Normally Chloe is very smart but she isn't making smart decisions in her personal life and it is sad to watch.

As far as the topic at hand. Jimmy saved a man from being killed by Davis when he hit Davis and handcuffed him. Chloe tasered Jimmy to supposedly save Davis when in fact Jimmy was the one who needed saving from Davis. Jimmy was defending himself when Davis broke free of one handcuff. A smart girl would have noticed the broken handcuff and wondered how Davis had broken it. To make a one second check on her husband and then console Davis who was concealing his red eyes and bone protrusion really showed Chloe's bad judgement. She should have been more worried about her husband laying unconscious after he had spent a month in the hospital from internal injuries. I'm worried for Chloe. She has been on an emotional roller coaster and maybe she needs to seek some help like she suggested to Jimmy in the hospital. Maybe after seeing Jimmy popping pain pills, they both better seek help. It's not fun for me to watch the downward path Chloe is taking and I hope it isn't going where I think it is.

[xrayvision]

Maybe I shouldn't have used that term this season, but in seasons 5-7 it was definitely true (especially in Apocalypse when he refused to stop Brainiac until Jor-El had to go to extreme measures).

But he's still not back to the level of confidence he once had. And they still screwed up with him with that Lana plot. That was their opportunity to show how much he matured and they completely blew it. They still have him making those dumb facial expressions, which I never saw until season 5. The expression of resolve needs to come back. His face has to show why he's the go-to guy when there is unnaturally high pressure & odds stacked against him that a normal person wouldn't be able to handle.

Yeah I know. The first 3-4 seasons had Chloe as an intelligent underdog. And I loved it, especially the underdog part. She was her own person. I like how they started giving her the Isis foundation as her own plot, but they messed things up by having her "mother" Clark & be condescending with him again. If they wanted a character to "mother" him, then why did they get rid of Martha? She mothered him in the areas that didn't make him look like an incompetent fool. I would have kept Chloe as a friend who he'd talk about meteor freaks & Lex with & at best, only very infrequently about his secret/powers.

I think they could have had a plot with Chloe & Tess, but they blew it. Lana should have been kept out of this season. If anything, they should have brought her back towards the very end of the series in the season they know will be the last after he is already set up as a hero & well into Lois, just to resolve things.
