Lana needs another hole in her hand? The Obsession Returns

[Spirit Detective]

If I go crazy than will you still call me Lana Lang?
Apparently No!

I would have thought that she was a least a bit over her unhealthy obsession with the paranormal. But no, we get this crap line of her saying,

"Clark, How did you know that Lex was going to turn into that monster?"

Lana has regressed back to when she was in "Oracle". She still wants the truth (willing to get impaled for it) and treats Clark like crap.

Who does she think she is? I know that Clark has treated her like crap (Fanatic, Reckoning, Cyborg, Hypnotic, Oracle, Vessel) but there is no reason for her to act like b**chy Dawn Stiles.

One would think that she would have learned her lesson from the hole in her hand. She still wants the f-ing truth.

Lana, "I don't know how I could have ever love you!" :mad:

[smallvillerocks45]

Can I vote for all of the above? I can't believe she has the nerve to tell Clark that "now isn't the time for secrets when Lex's life is in danger", when she stood right there and lied to his face. What is wrong with her?

[CountBoobu]

It was really hard to choose between the last option and "Lana needs another hole in her hand", but I decided not to be so ruthless. ;)

I'm just wondering how the writers are going to take Lana from hating Clark's guts to being even remotely friendly with him again. I guess a good example of how this was done is to go back to season 4, when Lana assumed Clark got Jason fired due to jealously.

Lex informed Lana of the real reason why Jason was fired and Lana took her utter disgust for Clark down a few notches. I suppose something similar could happen here...but uh...does anyone have any ideas as to how?

And no, putting another hole in Lana's hand doesn't count :p

[Katarite]

I am seriously beginning to dislike Lana... It wasn't always that way, but the way they have been writing her character is driving me insane. She is still carrying on about Clark keeping secrets, but when she finds out Lex has a video camera in her room she accepts his explanation with very little argument. I think most people would be more upset by the latter offense than the former... At least I would.

[Lightning Flash]

Lana is back to her old ways of not trusting Clark, and thinking Clark is keeping secrets all the time. I kinda' like it this way, tho.

[xrayvision]

At this point in time, Clark owes her nothing. He did back when he was with her, especially before doing it with her in Mortal. But she wanted to have her cake & eat it too when she wanted to be with Clark but at the same time investigate the ship with Lex behind his back. As a result of that, she died when he told her his secret. So that changed everything.

But she is treating him like total crap. Whenever he did that to her in the past, he was always under the influence. I really hope he whips out a line like "If you want to continue being a b**ch to me, then have a nice life". The only time he ever said anything like this was in that deleted scene in season 4 (where she thought he was on roids and was trying to convince him not to say anything to get Jason fired; probably from Jinx). It figures they cut that scene from the episode as it aired.

[Pantalaimon]

I like angry Lana.
You're forgetting that everything he did that would make her trust or appreciate him was before he dumped her.

I would like to see some of the determination from Zod back though. She had a direct purpose in that episode. Hope she gets some in this series.

I don't think Lana regressed back, I like the fact that she brought up the Zod stuff. It makes sense and at the very least it's great continuity, from the previous episode for Lana.

She heard Clark say he needs to Kill Lex, before Zod posessed his body and she also went to the Kent Farm to get the knife to kill Zod. Why shouldn't she bring it up with Clark? He not only knew what would happen, but he was also in possession of the knife that could stop it. Lana like anybody else would've had questions about what went down.

it was apropriant for her to bring up zod but, it was not at the appropriate time. if my signifigant other was kidnapped and i just heard about it the last thing on my mind would be pumping my ex for infomation about something that happend last week or month or whatever.

I cant stand where they took Lana's character last season, and in fact I cant stand her at all, but I actually thought that was a perfectly relevant question.

Even with the break-up, after all Clark did for her, she has no reason to be that mean to him, especially when he's offering to help find her current boyfriend, who also happened to be at one time one of Clark's best friends who crossed the line by going out with Lana after Clark (even being a huge reason behind the breakup). She b**ched after she overheard him talking about killing Lex, and now she's b**ching after he lived up to his word (in Vessel) and didn't kill him, which caused her hand to get impaled (which was her own stupidity for staying with an obsessed maniac like Lex).

But of course in Void when she needed help, she was all nice to him. At least if she's with Lex, I would like her to be the way she was in that last scene in Void.

I don't think the questions were inappropriate. The stuff that happen in ZOD, related to why Lex went missing in the first place. Clark knew about things before hand and Lana knew that Clark wasn't telling her, how he came by his information. Yeah, she was pumping him for information, but how many times has Clark done the samething?

[Supes The Man]

I think that clark needs to grow a pair and tell lana a few nasty words. I mean when she was asking him all those questions and and talking to him like he was dirt he did nothing. He should have told her that they aint together anymore and he dont have to tell her anything. But clark in him pathetic way just took it.

I agree. But she should have known he wasn't going to tell her.

And I like what that other poster stated, was that Lana lied to his face and then wanted answers, and I agree with the statement "Who the hell does she think she is?"

[Timester]

Three Cheers for Lana! Let's all attack the guy that was searching for the one that was about to DESTROY THE WORLD. :rolleyes:

A simple "sorry" would be nice, Lana. It would be a place to start over the friendship and build the trust again. But no, "secrets and lies" is more important...

[ginnyfan]

I don't agree with any of the choices. Though several of them were very funny! LOL!

I don't think it is inconsistant from Zod. I think Lana has isolated herself from everyone she came into contact with during Zod. Why? Then when she comes face to face with Clark... I think pride has led her to blame Clark for her hand stabbing. Clark should have told her more... he should have warned her... in more detail. It doesn't make sense and hopefully she'll eventually realize that... but blaming Clark is easier than looking in the mirror.

So I understand what she's doing. I don't think she's being driven by and obsession with the paranormal. I do think she might be on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

Lana's just misguided... and... unhappy. And I'm starting to think that she's clinging to Lex for dear life. I hope I'm wrong. That piano scene... what was she doing? Seemed like she was contemplating suicide or something. Maybe it was like a lonely pet that waits by the door for its master to get home...Yikes!

The dazed way that she reacted to Lex's kidnapping... It was all so strange. She could have confronted Clark in so many ways. "Why didn't you tell me about Zod? I would have helped." OR something... Oh well...

[Goldenage]

This episode did the impossible for me. It actually made me like Lana even less. Amazing.

There is an upside to Psycho Lana though. As long as she keeps this up she'll be making the idea of getting back her totally disgusting to Clark. That is good for everyone.

[Pantalaimon]

As I see it, Lana has no reason to apologize. She doesn't trust Clark and who can blame her after never being told the truth for so many years.

[ginnyfan]

^Not apologize but considering what they all just went through... she could have been more gentle in her questioning. Clark and Chloe were right after all...

She does need to apologize for mistrusting Clark in "Vessel". Guessing that the End of the World isn't reason enough for her. :\

I agree. Lana NEEDS to apoligixe for jumping to conclusions in Vessel. She assumed that Clark was going to kill Lex, but he didn't. Clark was right about how Lex would turn out. But instead of apoligizing, she asks more questions about Clark's secrets and lies

Disappointing..., I hope more injurys will "awaken" her from her pitiful stance on "Secrets and Lies"

I agree.

haha. i just think it's really retarded how she went 'crazy' on him by asking such a random question considering the situation and what was going on. clark comes with news of HER boyfriend being missing...what's her first reaction?

Clark:lex's been kidnapped, I'm here to help.

Lana:how did you know to kill lex with the knife??!! yadda yadda!! Where ARE THE STONESSSSSSS!!

:lol:

[R_Kellikron]

check out my version of the conversation:

Clark: your living with Lex?
Lana: Yes, he tells me the truth!
Clark: Well, he tells you something.
Lana: At least we talk.
Clark: I'm glad your happy.

This is exactly right. How many times is Lana going to use that approach before she tries a different one.

She had to have known he wouldn't answer. You'd think she start thinking in alternative ways.

The fact that she is so mean to him proves she's not over him IMO.

And what I don't understand, is that regardless of Clark's motives, he offered her help in getting Lex back, but clearly she didn't care too much. It was obvious that Clark's secret was more important than Lex's safety, and Lex would probably feel the same. Pathetic.

All Clark did was look side to side, and then he tried to change the subject.

Is she just supposed to accept everything he tells her at face value, and not ask questions? :confused:

[/B] Yeah, that's why she made that call to Pontier, and why she told Chloe to check out the warehouse for her, and why she was the one going toe to toe with the villains this ep.

Because she couldn't give two licks about Lex's safety. Right. :rolleyes:

[bobser]

That's just Lana's personality in the series. She's just so nasty and testy at times, but I guess that comes with being a big girl. I think she needs to eat some humble pie at the end of the season, witness Clark actually saving her life from something, and putting two and two together and realize he sacrificed his Dad for her.

I said she cared more about Clark's secret than Lex's safety. That is not to say she didn't care any about Lex's safety.

And if Lex's safety were a big deal, she should have at least told Clark what she knew.

After all, she knew someone saved Lex from Zod. And being that Clark was the only one knowing exactly what was happening, you would think she would piece it together that Clark saved Lex.

I totally agree. While every one else was hating lana, i liked her. sure, she got annoying, but I still liked her and rooted for her and clark. but last season made me hate her! the minute she started dating lex, i hated her. I can't stand the way she has been acting with not only clark, but with every one around her who isn't lex. I think she needs to be hit in the face. and hard.

[smallvillerocks45]

I totally rooted for Lana and Clark too. I honestly never thought she was that bad -and maybe she still isn't, maybe she really is misguided- Yet, I still find her attitude toward Clark inexcusable. She needs to realize that if she can't say something nice, she shouldn't say anything at all, because the meaner she is, the less Clark trusts her. I can understand her being hurt and upset, but does she honestly think that Clark is going to suddenly break down and tell her the truth just because she's mean to him? She needs a reality check.

[bad3appels]

why wouldn`t she treat clark like crap?? he has always treat her that way,i said that she learned from the best :lol:

a lot of people are like..even if after everythings he has done for her,she is still beaaaatching about him..HELLO,she doesn`t know that.
we as the viewers knows everything but her character doesn`t.

[darkone]

Quite frankly,Lana treats Clark like Clark´s deserve it.She doesnt buy his bs anymore which is a good thing and you could tell he was very surprised by that fact."And don´t pretend you´re doing this for Lex" Thats the truth and BOTH know that!

[chlarkfan333]

It's Clark's perrogative whether or not he should trust Lana. You cannot force someone to trust you. They either do or they don't. Lana doesn't seem to realise that. Clark as far as I'm concerned erred only once and that was being intimate with Lana without first telling her the truth. I say this only b/c it wasn't a one-night stand. He did the right thing when it came down to the wire in Reckoning. He told her the truth.

Now she has no right to keep demanding the truth from him. The time for that has long since passed.

What really gets my goat is the way Clark responds to her vindictiveness, or rather, doesn't. While I understand CK's supposed to be the nice guy, does he have to be such a doormat?

[Son of Kal-El20]

Lana is too nosy. Clark has a right to his privacy. Why Lana is so obsessed in finding his secret is suspicious at this point. Someone that obsessed has something no good up their sleeve. Clark is doing the right thing in not telling her. Because I wouldn't. I'd actually ask her 'why do you want to know my secret so badly?'.

The problem she is having with Clark and his secret is that Clark isn't doing a very good job of keeping it secret.

And whenever he's confronted about his shady behaviour, he tries to spin the conversation to make the other person feel guilty for prying.

He needs to be a lot more careful where and when he is using his powers, because otherwise people like Lana are just going to keep asking questions.

[Spirit Detective]

Lana doesn't wonder why Zod didn't kill her when he was about to to.

[lilkoolmaria]

"Dawn Stiles never left Lana's body."

LMAO.

[HotStudsSuccess]

Lana gets dumber than Kelly Bundy (The Blond woman from Married with Children) and sleeps around.

Maybe she wants to play her own evil:confused: game , she will be with Lex but won’t share with him everything.

[Mischael12]

The problem with Lana is that she goes back on what she has said.

I remember an episode were she said she didn't care about his secret, cause he had always been there for her. Now she's all like "NO SECRET, NO POOTYTANG."

Seriously its not like he is cheating on her, or anything, and she apparently has a clue that it has something to do with him saving her, indicating that he is in some ways more than human.

I mean she has to use her head, if Clark has enemies who kidnap you, and you know his secret, who says your not gonna tell, there are methods to get the truth out of people. Smallville has proven that.

Its not that big of a deal, all relationships have some secret hidden in them, as well as she pressures him to much about it. If she had waited like a good girl he would have told her.

The only thing that made no sense is why didn't he tell her after his father died? Even still...she just pisses me off now, she's one of those women, who when you do one thing against her all the good things you did disappear and your evil.

Its like she has forgotten the quadrilian times Clark has saved her life. I hope he does reveal his secret to her and explain the reason why she is still alive now. Her death was her own fault as well, I mean first she shouldn't have been over to Lex talk to him on the phone, as well wasn't she using her cell-phone when she got hit by the bus?

Hello CELLPHONES ARE DANGEROUS, and she was driving way to fast.

[iuqiddis]

Gone with the wind.

[ginnyfan]

I was browsing Steven De Knight (sp?) 's blog... and saw a post from a Lana fan...

And I never realized it but Lana was right about Clark in her wistful piano scene. He only went after Lex when Lionel pointed out that they would torture him and perhaps get at his secret.

I think the torturing part would have prompted Clark to try and find him even without the secret... but Lana is on to something... she's actually being perceptive... Clark's knee-jerk reaction was to stay out of the situation. Also... Clark had a head-cold so perhaps his patience was running thin...

But still interesting.

Zod disappeared, Lex doesn't remember a thing, so in conclusion, someone had to save Lex. Clark and Chloe were the only ones who knew what was happening, according to Lana's perspective. Lex is saved and Clark is back, umm, you don't think that Lana could make that connection.

And if she was smart, she'd view the mansion tapes to see what happened when she lost consciousness. Duh. TPTB have gone too far with making these characters look stupid IMO.

but lana's not that smart, she'd probably skip the recording of clark superspeeding in and out of the mansion for the 5 secs of her undressing.:lol:

[cmm]

Lana is Lana and will never change. What makes me laugh is the fact that lex will lie right to her face and she'll never see any different. Yet clark, Chloe and even Mrs Kent can tell her something and instantly she knows if their lying or not.

In season 5 almost everyone was able to break into his mansion, even junky Lana ( no record of breaking into people’s places ) still she managed somehow. I find even more hilarious the events from Fade where Lana said to Lex that she had to make a pretty good case before they'd let her in, which was strange because she was his girlfriend. Well, Clark didn’t have that problem and superspeeded (undetected of course) to see them kiss and then superspeeded to go and shout at Chloe.

Yup, Lex definitely should check the recording from the cameras in the hallway. Lana is just like you said not that smart.

It's funny because Lana once said in Splinter, "There could never be anything between me and Lex" and in Oracle, "He's not my boyfriend".

It seems that Lana has changed to me. Another thing that's funny is that Lana can be all Clana in one episode and then all moaning about secrets and lies in another.

The one thing that is constant right now is her obsession with the paranormial in season 5 and going into season 6. This flaw got Lana killed in Reckoning and gave her a hole in her hand in Zod.

I should have put another poll answer where it would if Lana would get stabbed with a vaccine.

[1.21 gigawatts]

Don't you know? Lana's perfect.

*rolls eyes*

[Spirit Detective]

The most interesting thing is that Lana hated Lex and treated him like crap in the beginning episodes of Season 5. Then after Clana broke up, Lana started treating Clark the way she had been treating Lex (cold and full of unrelenting questioning) .

I'm starting to think that Lana is bipolar.

I am getting so sick and tired of people blaming Lana for the end of her relationship with Clark. Clark was the one who made the choice to continue lying to her. He was the one who had ended the relationship in the first place, because he didn't have the guts to tell her the truth. And to make matters worse, when Lionel asked him to save Lex's life, the bastard had refused, because "he and Lex were no longer friends". Lana saw into his hypocricy when he finally began searching for Lex . . . and people ***** and moan over her behavior? Oh please! This is sickening and so hypocritical!

LOL :). Agreed. I wish I could have voted for all of them. Lana will always be Lana and she will clearly never change. She will always use the cushion of secrets and lies and expect everybody tell her the truth but never expected to tell the truth herself.

Everybody craps on Clark for not telling her the truth well maybe if she wouldn't harp on it all the time maybe he would. Also as for Lex well she has said she didn't like him and then all of sudden she does oh please! Yes Clark did end the relationship but I think in the long run it was for the best.
