do you like clark and tess scenes

[lana 9]

i think that clark and tess scenes it look like going to be a good scenes

[Tompouce]

Of course, Clark with a red woman it is always http://www.yelims.com/IPB/Invision-Board-France-548.gif

[wattowatta]

So, Tess knows what's the score with Clark. Clark is, for some reason or another, denying it despite running up against the obvious truth that she knows like whoa. However, she has repeatedly stated that she wants to have a good, trusting relationship with Clark, and isn't motivated by anger, retribution, or mustache-twirling villainy

So, what's going on?

Personally-speaking, whatever it is, I'm in favor of it. Freeman and Welling work well together, and it's been great seeing them explore the dynamic between themselves over the course of the season.

I happen to lean towards Lion-El style benevolence, with a dash of psych issues, sweetness on Clark, and nebulous malevolence. I also think the writers want to keep a Clark-Lois-Tess triangle going for dramatic tension; though that's just me. What's your take?

[Dyanara]

Heck if I know, I do want to figure out wtf is going on though. Whose side is she on; and is this show turning into L*C:The New Adventures of Superman with everybody knowing who Clark is. BTW WTF was that thing in the briefcase?

[Sunny8]

Clark did not lie to Tess because he never told her anything. She is making assumptions. She is believing the Luthor's over Clark. Besides, what business is it of hers? Or for that matter, what business is it of anyone that Clark does not tell his secret too? Clark lives in a town of nosy people. I'd sell my farm and move as far away from them as possible. Why do these people always think they should be privy to Clark's life and business?

...BTW WTF was that thing in the briefcase?

It was that thing that Lex thought he could use to control Clark (the Traveler). All it did, though, was removed Clark's powers.

I think she will eventually become evil like Lex. One reason being that Doomsday will be gone by next season and they will eventually need an enemy. Specially to control the Injustice League.

As for the object in her briefcase, that was the orb that was made to control the traveler that Lex used in the Fortress of Solitude against Clark. After The FOS collapsed and Lex disappeared, it is unknown as to how Tess was able to get a hold of an object that she shouldn't even know existed let alone be able to find.

[Dyanara]

When you have all the evidence in the world that the sky is blue and some moron still tries to say its fushia it tends to piss you off. Clark can't even lie right.
And will somebody please tell me what the heck Tess had in the briefcase?

Thank You, I seriously did not know what that was. Tess keeps jumping back and forth between good and evil. Being connected to the Luthor's it seems she will end up evil. But I dont like to guess on things like this because you never know.

[Sunny8]

Kschreck;4695129...it is unknown as to how Tess was able to get a hold of an object that she shouldn't even know existed let alone be able to find.

I guess she found it just like she found Clark's FOS crystal.

[Dyanara]

Yeah they were obviously on the side of the road next to a old bottle of beer

Agreed.

[clois-destiny-forever]

She's got an agenda, I think. Not sure what it is yet, but it's there under the surface.

[Lilah]

Tess is just looking for someone to believe in, she is in need of a savior. Clark is that savior. Her arc was the only interesting thing for me tonight.

[Kschreck]

I've always liked Tess's character. I really hope they bring her back next season.

[Sunny8]

That's a burden that no one has a right to place on anyone. Clark is not a god. Tess needs to find Jesus if she really wants a savior. Clark does not have to be anyone's savior.

[The Dark Knight74]

I think Tess has a thing for Clark.

[Kschreck]

Tess definitely has some emotional feelings for Clark. That being said, I hope it doesn't evolve into any kind of relationship and I don't think it will. Tess secretly wants Clark to sweep her off her feet but it isn't going to happen and I think eventually it will drive her insane (like Lex dealing with Clark's secrets). I think of Tess the same way as we all thought of Lex in season one. That being said, I think Tess will eventually become evil and it will happen by the end of this season or sometime next season if they bring her character back.

[Sports72Xtrm]

We need some sexual harassment from Tess while Clark becomes uncomfortable while Lois gives him a cold stare from across her desk:lol:

[Spaniard]

When you have all the evidence in the world that the sky is blue and some moron still tries to say its fushia it tends to piss you off.

True. I think Clark is making a mistake here. Clark’s constant denials and horrible lies, when it’s obvious she knows, will probably change Tess’s view of Clark eventually, which will lead her to the dark side.

Yeah it sadly seems like the writers are just copying off of what happened between Lex and Clark in the first couple of seasons.

[Jack-El49]

I've always liked Tess's character. I really hope they bring her back next season.

Me too - she's an intriguing character with a lot of layers. Plus, she's #2 on the hot scale, just behind Erica.

[workshyslacker]

Tess is sweet on Clark, but also wants to use him for her own purposes.

She's got this twisted hero-worship because she thinks she's doing him a favour. I bet Judas thought that too, and if you got him on the couch, he'd say he was trying to get Jesus "to man up" against the Romans. :rolleyes: With zealots like these, who needs enemies?

And she's also got the hots for him. The woman isn't subtle.. "I'll wait for you". Totally loved the snarky comment about Tess trying to "fill the hole in her life". I guess she means you, Clark...hmmm?;)

You could say Clark is her new Lex.

[Mickey_Bickey]

I saw only Clark and Lexlike interaction last night. It was very different than Turbulence.

[costas22]

Agree Michelle.It wasn't that different though.Tess wants to find out about him.I think that yesterday she carried the frustration from that episode.And here i put some of the blame on Clark.When someone tells you pretty much that they know everyting about you,it's not nice to insult their intelligence all the time.I am glad they cut out the part where he mocked her about taking many pain meds.

The difference was the underlining sexual tension. I saw more of that between Davis and Tess in this episode than with her and Clark. In fact, Clark seemed completely empowered with her at the end of this episode unlike in Turbulence.

I didn't know about the pain meds, but I can understand Clark not wanting to trust her. He barely knows her, and he hasn't even told Lois yet who he's much closer to let alone Tess who obviously by her interaction with Davis cannot be trusted.

[workshyslacker]

There's subtext here... I just don't see it :D

I dunno, Michelle. The backhand to the face killed any sexual tension for me. It was all the eyebrow waggling from Tess, the implication that she had a "hole" in her life, and that she'd wait for Clark that sealed the deal. ;)

totally agree on that... unless Tess is really really into the rough stuff. which i doubt since her father used to beat her up.

[costas22]

Well how many times can you turn down Tess' advances before she pulls the orb out?I think that Clark's place on the "to do" list is in danger.

If Lois had been in Tess' position what would he have done?Lie again.That's the unfortunate position that they are constantly putting him in.Tess wasn't that wrong about Clark driving Lex to the edge.He did it to Lana as well.I know that he can't trust people with his secret all the time but there are times when his lies become obvious.

[Tess is Smokin]

i honestly think he should just admit it ... i mean cmon seriously she already knows it all what harm could it do for him to admitting it? him denying everything wont hold up in the long run.. i just hope he doesn't make the same mistake he did with lex

I don't know but he is gettin dangerously close.So far he has turned down her help in Bloodline,Turbulence and Eternal.

Agreed. Tess has an agenda. I do not think that her motives are completely altruistic. She wants something. I just don't know what yet.

[Tess is Smokin]

as many as it takes :P

[baltazor]

Tess has obviously inherited the Luthor obsession for Clark. I believe she really looks up to him and wants desperately to earn his trust, but her way of doing things contradicts everything Clark stands for. I don't think Tess is either good or evil. She is a chameleon who quite possibly wants to help Clark.
But she is deeply misinformed, as were the Luthors, and messed with powers far far greater than their own. That is what got them killed in the end and caused a lot of collateral damage along the way...

[smallvillerocks45]

I agree that Tess is a desperate woman. All of her life, she has been slapped in the face by men (both actually and metaphorically), and Clark is kind, honorable - a respectable person. Whether or not she wants to use him for good or evil though, is still up in the air for me.

I am just confused about this whole Clark/Tess thing. I mean, really, what was Clark supposed to do - Just tell her? ... And then what? Tess knows Clark's secret (like Lionel did), and protects him from Doomsday? Perhaps, but I don't see how much more help she could possibly be in that department. ... and I agree with Sunny8 - it really is none of her business!

I'm sure we'd all love to see Clark become the man we all know he is destined to be, but it is not Tess' job to get him there. He's doing his job, he's making progress, and who knows what Tess is trying to do? ... But Clark has more pressing issues up ahead. How deep the Cless becomes could either help or hurt him. I am very interested in seeing what happens next.

[aceofclubs]

Why do these people always think they should be privy to Clark's life and business?

Those people think they are privy to his business cause CK is ALWAYS putting his nose in every other persons business.

[FlashInSV]

When you have all the evidence in the world that the sky is blue and some moron still tries to say its fushia it tends to piss you off. Clark can't even lie right.


Extrememly well-put! :p;)

[workshyslacker]

That's right, as with some of the theories I've read around the boards.


Clark can't even lie right. I didn't know Clark hogged the blankets.:p

[chlo-el]

I think Tess has really big feelings for Clark. That end scene screamed that she was creepily in love with him to me.

[Tatiana]

I think she has a good theory on the whole Clark needing a major challenge to reach his potential, Clark is also right that she doesn't know him but I do think she wants to control him somehow, whether she thinks it's for good reasons so he does reach his potential now that she thinks Davis is dead. We'll see but I do like how we don't really know whether she is good or bad, reminds me how I felt with Lionel.

I think she is more infatuated with him than in love, could turn into obsession

[marla219]

Tess wants Clark to accept his destiny (adding her to the list of people who keep telling him the world needs him). But she's right: he will only completely embrace his destiny as the protector of the world when the world is in danger. Otherwise, what's the point? Tess wants him to come out and be the beacon of hope for the world badly enough that she's willing to help put the world in danger in order to call him out.

It reminds me of Unbreakable, though it's been a long time since I saw it. Wasn't the plot of that film about comic books and superheroes and their nemeses? Mr. Glass did horrible things in order to find his heroic alter ego, because every hero needs tragedy and an enemy in order to embrace destiny? I think Tess may see her role as helpful in getting Clark to embrace his destiny, even if she has to do technically evil things in order to get him there.

[Iluvgreen]

I personally don't see Clark and Tess having a romantic relationship. A friendship maybe.

[Dyanara]

In Turbulence I thought Tess had a thing for Clark, now Im just confused again. And as of right now I dont think they can get rid of Tess. They have made her such an important factor in this season that it would seem weird for her to just disappear or die.

[Shaftell]

I don't understand how Tess figured out about Clark's secret so easily! It took Lex years and years to figure something out. All Tess had to do was read a book and attempt to crash an airplane.

[Davis Bloome]

Well Lex first was a bit blinded by friendship. He seemed to buy Clark's lies more easily certainly in the beginning and secondly he probably didn't have that book. It was most likely always in the possession of his father.

In Turbulence, I thought she was trying to seduce Clark into telling her his secret. I see Tess in the same light as Lionel. Her intentions and her actions are very murky. That's why I'd hate to see her go.

I agree, she reminds me a lot of Lionel. confusing just like him and manipulative

[Dar'el]

Am I the only one who thinks she might be lex. Okay I think Ollie might be lex. Green Arrow took care of the body he's merged with lutorcorp, turbulance was on ollies jet, the test she had for him, She knows that clark is my brother Kal-el. does she know from the luthors, herself or Ollie. the plastic surgery excuse a few EPI's ago makes me think that she has lex, mind or something, I am not suggesting any sorta trans-clex angle, I think she's Lex and is tryin to gain Clarks trust so she can help defeat him once and forall

[rch]

I don't think Tess is properly replacing Lex or even Lionel, and I really wish she was. (And no, I don't think she's channeling Lex.) They keep letting her attempt to be good, and with Doomsday being his own style of righteous vigilante, I'm wondering where the villain is in a blackmail-on-your-wedding-day kind of way. During this episode, I was starting to get nervous with all the Tess-as-disciple stuff, but then at the end when she said she thought Clark would have a need for her, I got lost and couldn't find the point.

Can someone explain to me why she thinks Clark would need her? (Or is she just delusional, he doesn't need her, so she'll try to use the crystal to make him need her?)

[costas22]

I don't think it's a matter of need.Tess,just like Lex before her,thinks that with her finances and her wit,she can help Clark fulfill his destiny.But we never got an indication of how Lex would have helped Clark either.Last night was completely different to Turbulence.For some weird reason she was obsessed to get Clark and Davis to fight each other.I like Tess but i am afraid that her time on the show is limited.This isn't about her anymore.It has stopped being so ever since Power.They are just using her to advance the plot.They wanted her to be the one who breaks the news to both Clark and Davis and they don't seem to have any plans for her character.

[Inkpen23]

do you like clark and tess scenes

No, they're boring.

[petitemimi]

I find their relationship really interesting. She's slowly becoming obsessed with Clark, a little like Lex and Lionel did. I don't really see something romantic in it.

[rebecavaldez]

She is the girl version of Lex.

[wolverine316]

True. I think Clark is making a mistake here. Clark’s constant denials and horrible lies, when it’s obvious she knows, will probably change Tess’s view of Clark eventually, which will lead her to the dark side.

Would you prefer Clark to tell Tess you are correct I am an alien? :confused: We really don't know where her head is at. She may see Clark as a savior but her actions may prove different. If that is the orb she could control him.

[Giggs]

Until "Eternal", I was not so sure Tess was so evil. To me, redemption was an option for her. But now, I am sure she is on the dark side. As you said it, she wants to control lives, she wants Clark to fulfill his destiny but her reasons are not good. She is playing God, exactly like Lionel did and Lex wanted to manage Clark's story.

Anyone think Clark has any interest in Tess? I don't, but maybe I missed something.

[EternalTwilight]

Absolutely no interest on his part.

[Davis Bloome]

No Clark is deeply in love with Lois, he just doesn't want to give in to it yet, just as with Lana. It begins to look too similar.

[Promise]

Actually, I see Tom and Cassidy. They look like they want each other. Sorry, I'm being honest.

[Watching Smallville]

Tess is looking for a messiah. And she found herself one.

[halvor311]

I LOVE how awesomely awkward it is between the two of them. It's not awkward like the beginning of the Lex and Clark relationship, but it's just always so tense when the two of them have a scene together. There is a part of me that wants them to be romantically involved but I'd want it to end badly if it were to come to that. At the same time I kinda want Tess to be in love with Clark, maybe it's because of the fact that Clark is a nice guy and not the type that would get the girls in real life. And I agree with everyone here saying that Clark is not using very good judgment in denying the sky is blue. He really needs to just accept the fact that Tess knows and try to trust her. That's the ultimate mistake he made with Lex. Lex just needed someone to put their trust in him, if Clark had, things would have been better for Lex and Lionel would be the villain today. But yeah, I think Tess is in love with Clark and her not getting the one man she believes won't let her down will drift her toward the dark side.

[zHeN_zHeN]

I like Tess, but I can do without Cless.

[devilneedsaride]

Absolutely no interest on his part.

I agree. I haven't seen anything to indicate he has any interest in her at all.

[rebecavaldez]

He's so not intrested in her. He doesn't trust her.
