Instead, the writers had to throw in the word "couple" so that they can continue this off and on relationship. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Lana, but this circle is beyond used up.

At least Clark gave her a "whatever, I have to milk the cows" attitude. :D

Clark, the middle finger, please. The middle finger next time.

i think they've finally started to put some closure into their failing relationship. she did say she couldnt talk to clark anymore. to me the are now officially not together despite the fact that they love each other

Lana's angsty scene at the end should have been with Chloe, not with Clark. We should be wondering about the status of Clana for a few eps because they are truly on a break from each other and we just don't see them together. Instead, Lana should have had an uncomfy roomie scene with Chloe, apologizing for not believing her when she said she saw ghostygirl, and making some excuse about just wanting what was best for her. Whatever. The Clana scene was just annoying.

I did like that Clark just let Lana twist in the wind when the latter was making excuses for having gone to Lex. TW and KK played the scene well, showing Clark's new distrust of Lana and Lana's bewilderment at the situation.

Clark choose not tell lana the truth because he believes she will get hurt, and you call him a wimp. We have vastly different definitions of wimp. He is choosing to protect the fate of others over the satisification of his preson life. Whether Clark is right or wrong is not the issue. He believes prusuing a relationship with Lana will end in her death.

That gives Lana a right to play with Clark? She was the one that break off. She is the one that is doing the "pity girlfriend", like she did with Whitney. She is the one that keeps coming with the "secrets and lies" and telling they are a couple when she WAS the one the broke off.

Really, how is Clark the jerk here? The guy lost his father, for "Pete Who?"'s sake.

So let's get this straight. She dies while knowing the secret. But Clark should have realized that she was on her second trip to death WITHOUT knowing one word of the secret. That's pretty dumb of him not to notice.

chole_fan

02-09-2006, 07:39 PM

I don't see Clark as a wimp. He is sacraficing a relationship with the one he loves to keep her safe. Seems like that takes some inner strength to me.

That aside, I think its time to move on... Let Lana have a go with Lex and she will get what's coming to her!

That was his decision, nothing more. He isn't the one that keeps going to his "break"-girlfriend and keep messing her head out.

I have sympathy for Clark losing Pa Kent, but please don't tell me Clark's not wrong for not telling her the secret.

And apparently "taking a break" didn't mean they broke up, or Clark would have corrected her.

When people experience a great loss, it affects their current relationships so that it is possible it appears they are pulling away, when in reality all they are doing is mourning. Its difficult to grieve and reach out for support.

I'm sure he noticed, but why would he take that chance again. I mean, he just turned back time to keep her safe and lost his Dad as a result. You gotta figure the guys had enough and is not willing to risk anything or anyone else.

Good point. But I still think he should tell her the secret, even if it's after his mourning period.

This is what I think Timester meant:

When you're on a break with someone, and you're the one that suggested it. don't come to him unless you want to get back together with him. Because just wanting to talk about whatever with him, just messes him up.

When you dump him, leave him alone. for. good.

AnimeJoe

02-09-2006, 08:00 PM

There's one difference between Clark and Whitney. Lana didn't love Whitney, she cared about him but you didn't really get a sense of any kind of love from her. When she got nailed by the Nicodemeus<sp?> flower she was finally honest about how bored she was with the relationship... Her situation with Whitney was more of a pity girlfriend type thing. She was through with him before Season 1 episode 1 even aired ;).

On the other hand Lana truly does love Clark and I'm sure she'd give anything for the relationship to work out, but the both of them need to step up to the plate and lay their cards on the table.

Lana and Whitney's relationship could not be fixed - Lana wasn't really into him. Clark and Lana's relationship CAN be fixed, but those two boneheads need to get it together! ;).

Of course, they're on a break, not a break-up.

But the thing is, don't come to him to talk about whatever unless you want to get back together with him and work on bettering the relationship. That's the whole point of a break.

It makes things less confusing.

OutlawAngel

02-09-2006, 08:01 PM

Did I miss something somewhere?

Didn't they go on a break durring Reckoning?

I dont understand where she came from with her 'relationship' conversation at the end. I was sure Clark was going to tell her there was no relationship because they are on a break

What do they consider a break is?

I am just so conffused on this and it makes no sense at all

:mad:

chole_fan

02-09-2006, 08:04 PM

I'm not sure Lana knows exactly what she wants. I'm not a huge Lana fan, but I don't think she does these things maliciously (sp?). She keeps running to Lex, but isn't willing to give up on Clark just yet. At least with Lex, she kinda knows where she stands. But eventually she has to chose, whether she knows his secret or not.

YA, they are on a break from what you/we know from Ep #100; however, they may consider themselves some what still attached....

Where it goes from there? Who knows..

A break is when you take time off from a relationship to do some soul-searching on where you two stand and whether or not the relationship is worth fighting for.

It doesn't mean a break-up

Oh no, that doesn't work anymore (it never worked for me), because "Lana" is part of the same writing. You can't separate and telling "it's not Lana's fault, it's the writing", they are one and the same thing. Lana is writing.

cotton candy girl

Not sure I understand, Timester.

Actually, Lana is not malicious. She's a teenaged girl. Even some adults don't get everything right in relationships.

BoSoxJim

02-09-2006, 08:10 PM

well they had lana hang around for the customary 2 episodes before making the obvious official.

i was glad to see clark wasn't to shook up by it. he was like, ok, get the hell out of here then. :)

next weeks Pinky and the BRain:

Gee Lex, what are you going to do with the guy who wrecked my car????

Nothing really Lana. I'm just going to have a little talk with him. Now be the good little b*tch you should be to me and wait for me in the library.

2 seconds later....ok boys, crank up the juice. we have a freak to fry!!!

MUAHAHAHAH!!!!!

Gee, my Lexy is in such a good mood today. I am so glad he tells me everything unlike that moody Clark. He never tells me the truth and acts like I owe my life to him or something.

OutlawAngel

02-09-2006, 08:11 PM

But they really dont seem to be actiing any differently now that they are on a break than when they were going out to me. Still the same acusations and 'lieth's and secreteths' and the same angst.

Im just saying they are not acting any differenty now than they did when they are not on a break.

Lana is something that AlMiles wrote and is played by Kristin Kreuk. Lana is what they write. Lana is whatever they what. By telling that it's bad writing, Lana is also included. Of course I don't blame Lana. Why? She not exists.

Wasn't it Clark who told Lana in Blank and in Arrival things will be different and no more secrets no more lies when he was running after her for a relationship again whom he broke off the first time around in Pheonix?

Isn't he the same guy who slept with her, then totally cutted her off without any reasons as to why?

I'm sorry but from a female stand point , that burns!

Lana has no idea why Clark does the things he does.

Relationships works both ways. Two oars on the same boat, can set sail right without both of 'em. It's never just one person at fault. Honesty is important, but trust comes first then honesty. There's no trust b/w them.

The Clana relationship is like this, one oar is rowing while the other one is still in the boat.

02-09-2006, 08:43 PM

Well, technically they are still on a break. A break means to take time away from each other and not date or anything. They never officially broke up so I still think they are a couple. They haven't gone on a date or kissed since the 100th episode. I think they're fine and are leading up to the official break up, soon.

Look, honesty is important. But trust comes first, then honesty. You can't nag a guy to tell you something important until he's comfortable enough to tell you himself. "taking a break" is understandable. However, if the guy ain't gonna tell you after so many years. Break it off for good.

You can't force someone to tell you something important and you can't nag him either otherwise you'll just push him further away.

I, too, was surprised at Lana referring to Clark and herself as a couple. At this point, there's really no reason she should be surprised that Clark withholds information from her, considering Clark's secrecy has been the main obstacle in their relationship for the last 3+years.

Or when he said this time will be different (he still had his power FYI) and still went and took that all back?

Did you say "Lana you should have flicked him off when he lied to you after he fed you those lines."

Did you?

You sound as horribe as this person below:

What right does HE have to ask her that after he lied to her countless times and then didn't tell her he took Chloe?

BadToad

02-09-2006, 09:05 PM

Well, I think he had a right because he believes, and rightfully so, that Lex could be a danger to Chloe. Lana going to Lex is lunacy. She should've told Clark about that so Clark could say "Girl, are you Whacked?"

He knows she can't keep cool about it when confronted by Lex. She's entangling herself to Lex even more now. Him telling her now could have very bad consequences.

What does Lana not tell Clark?

Lana has always been forward with Clark, even if it takes her a while, she ends up opening up to him about it.

Clark has never opened up about that one little thing that Lana knows Clark hiding.

And tonight, Clark did nag at Lana. She went to him and rather then saying "Hi" or "How are you" the first thing he said "Why did you tell me you went to Lex?"

Clark has four seasons (even this season, Thirst, Expose) under his belt.

I don't. I despise Clark and how he treats ppl, including Lana. But it's not all his fault that they couldn't make this thing b/w them work.

I'm speaking from past experience, it's not a good idea to nag on someone very much important to you.

That doesn't give her the right to mess with Clark's head. She is the one that is "taking a break" and spents her time with Lex.

Yes I understand that people are upset at Lana for going to Lex. But look at it this way. Who are the main players in Smallville...Clark, Lana, Lex, Chloe, and now Lois. It seems like these guys only know eachother. Now, if the center couple (the Clana) are on a break, then "friends" will have to take sides. Chloe is Clark's best friend, so obviously he will go to her to lean on. Lois is Chloe's cousin (actually, I find they are more like sisters), so Lois will be in the Chloe/Clark camp. The remaining players are Lana and Lex. So who is left for Lana to go to...everyone needs support when they are breaking up with someone they love (and whether you like the Clana or not, Lana does really love Clark). The only close friend that Lana has left is Lex. That's why she goes to him.

No one says anything about Clark when he runs to Chloe whenever he is upset over something. Sure, we know that Chloe is a good person and not evil like Lex...but we have the luxury of being the audience. Lana doesn't know that Lex is evil. He has shown "his scales" (as Chloe put it) to everybody but Lana. Yeah, he's playing her. But if you condemn Lana for spending time with another guy (Lex) when she has a problem, then you have to do the same thing to Clark for spending time with another girl (Chloe) when he has a problem.

My point was, I dont think Clark wouldve ever found out simply because Lana thought he didnt want to hear about it. Thats a poor excuse.

Nope I don't agree, if you love Clark, don't lean on Lex, especially if you know it bothers Clark. It would really bother me that while I was grieving for my father , my girlfriend went to lean on the guy spying on me. Nope do not buy that Lex is Lana sole support system.

You complain that Lana nags at Clark too much, but then when she doesn't force an issue on to Clark when he doesn't want to hear about it you still complain?

She told him about the ship hours after she saw it.

Then in Morta she tells him "there's so much I want to tell you" which Clark cuts her off and tells her the past is the past.

Then Lana again said in Lockdown that she tried to talk to him about the ship but everytime she tried he would change the subject and tell her not to dwell on it.

Same like how Clark started dating Alicia knowing that just a year earlier she tried to kill Lana and him? :p

I don't agree with the lexana relationship at all because to me it doesn't make sense either.

But you can't fault Lana for something Clark did as well.

Umm, everyone doesn't hate Chloe. Everyone (except for Lana) hates Lex.

Now how dense are the writers making her when everyone she cares about feels the same way about Lex. Yet she can't see the bad in him?????

And Lana and CLark weren't on a break when she went to Lex about Chloe.

the word "slut" is used widespread among shows on the WB and other channels. Therefore, it can be used here in full compliance with the forum rules.

and yes, i am calling her a slut even though she's only done the deed with clark. however, hypocrite is a more apt description.

Ooooh.....them is fighting words :p

Clark told her she didn't need the red k. As was evident in her last two episodes.

And you should note she didn't go through with her plan that night.

A-Ha!

ALicia was a wee-bit unstable. Not a Slut! ;)

Lana has dated most of Smallville by now. All of whom were homicidal maniacs. But Clark isn't honest with her.. BOO-HOO! :lol:

I think this is an interesting point. The real problem, though, is that together, Lana and Lex decided that Chloe needed to be sent to Belle Reve. This is a very presumptuous thing to do. On Lex's part, it was probably a ploy to get inside Chloe's head and learn what she knows about Clark. On Lana's part, it's just intrusive. That's what's bothersome about this. And that Lana would do this without consulting Lois about it -- Lois who is Chloe's family. It's just a very extreme and inappropriate thing to do.

Clark has MAJOR trust issues with Lex but he doesn't hate him yet. I honestly don't get where folks see him as being hateful to Sexy Lexy :p..

It was Clark himself that told Lex that they might have their differences but he doesn't want to see him get hurt.

As for Lana researching the stars, meteor shower, SO WHAT? Where's the crime in that??

Everytime she brought the subject of the ship up Clark just avoided the subject. If your significant other kept avoiding a certain subject would you keep bringing it up? Or would you just deal with it on your own if need be? If Clark was from Earth, then he'd have absolutely NO reason for become unnerved or upset by her researching that stuff without him knowing. But he's not from Earth and she doesn't know that anymore.

It was mainly that she shared it with Lex and not with Clark. Clark saw it as a betrayal because she didnt tell him she was working with a person he doesnt trust. You could see how he would be upset by that if he didnt know about it.

02-09-2006, 11:23 PM

Just because Clark has issues with Lex doesn't automatically mean Lana should, she'd just be one of the blind sheep following the pack if she did that. She, or anyone in such a situation should be able to form their own opinions about someone without any influence from friends/lovers, etc.

I mean you CAN be friends with two people who aren't fond of each other, you just gotta try and stay out of their issues with each other ;)

And Clark brings all these things onto himself. He could have been the one working alongside her but he just dismissed her every time the subject of the ship was brought up... If you won't help someone with something, they'll more than likely find someone else who will.

normally i would agree. however, hasn't lana ever talked with anybody about their dealings with lex luthor. especially chloe who is supposed to be her best friend.

it's like the philadelphia eagles and terrell owens. everybody in the nfl knew he was trouble but did the eagles listen???? Noooooo. They said, everybody can't be right about him. Let's take a chance.

Insert Lana into the role of the eagles. Lex as TO.

Since the words 'let's take a break' are generally the death knell of a relationship, I assumed that they were basically broken up. The slow drawn out break up and not the fast ripping off a band aid kind. Not all breaks end in a break up but a vast majority do, hence my reasoning. *sigh* Foiled and bored again.

Just another excuse to draw out the angst & give "Lana" as much screentime as humanly possible... TPTB said that CLANA was basically over... again, more lies. 5 eps down the line nothing will have changed. Maybe they just need to stop fighting it and just make EVERY episode center around Lana; then perhaps they can spin-off the other characters onto separate shows so we'll have something interesting to watch. This chick (Lana) has more issues than National Geographic. Well, cancel my subscription. Give me more CHLARK, CLEX, LEXONEL, MARIONEL, anything. NO MORE CLANA!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

Nice take -- Any writer that proposed that woulda been shot on the spot. Clark (and Lex, for that matter) turn to Jelly when Lana is around. Maybe they've been in the presence of the 'Lana Monument' that TPTB has erected for her too long. She's got them all brainwashed... must be too much exposure to Kryptonite... :p

may have been an 'ultimatum' situation.. where she felt the need to shake him out of his funk.

Johnathan's death.. I think pushed her to where she felt she needed to be there for him.

Often times... when people break up.. they don't usually fully let go and move on for a long time afterwards. Especially if they are as emotionally unstable as they've made Lana out to be.
