I don't think that's what he means... I think what he means is that Lana is more sophisticated and she won't forgive and forget so easily. I mean he did say it after he touched her and she flinched at his touch. I just hope that Clark finds out Lana's pregnecy soon. And Lana did die to protect Clark's secret if no remembers. Because Clark isn't thinks that he made the wrong choice now, but can he really blame her?

oh, it was an interesting statement, their both different people but as someone mentioned, Lana did accept his secret in reckoning.

it is Clark who is not open enough to tell about his powers with her Lana i think.

She did accept his secret. But her hesitation has always worried me. In the scene with Lois in the Talon apartment..

Lois: "does this secret change the way you feel about them?"

Lana: "...maybe..." she says with a confused and slightly frightened look on her face.

I can see his secret changing a persons willingness to remain in the relationship, but changing the way she FEELS about him, i find that questionable.

So yes Lana accepted him, with some deliberation. And she didn't handle having the secret all that well as far as I saw. her interaction with Lex in that epi, i feel is proof of how terrible her pokerface really is.

I can see Lois accepting Clark and and dealing with Lex with much more conviction than Lana did. That is the difference I see between the two and that is strength I think Lois has, that Lana doesn't.

i agree and what you said reminds me of a lois and clark episode when lois meets lana lang in an alternate universe. in that universe lana and clark are married and she knows his secret but is freaked out by it, so much in fact that she won't allow him to use his powers to help people. anyway i kinda think that's what this lana would have done if things had gone differently in wreckoning.

I think he meant more the whole "secrets and lies" thing. Lana accepted him when he told her the truth. But she didn't accept him when he had the "dual" identity.

I think his point to Oliver is that Lois isn't the kind of girl who would get angry at her boyfriend for keeping secrets. That she's not going to give Oliver the whole "secrets and lies" speech all the time.

Although, frankly, I don't know where he's getting that from. Lois was mad when Oliver bailed out on her and did one of his disappearing acts. She wanted to break up with him. That's not exactly the opposite of Lana.

I mean, I love Lois (and I think she was perfectly justified in her reaction to Ollie leaving her high and dry) but there wasn't anything in this episode that would suggest that Lois would be cooler with the "secret identity" thing than Lana was.

I think lois was made because Ollie left her high and not dry.

Her ego couldn't take it, but it was still rude on his part. EZ luvin' from lois on the half-shell. And he came and left it.

Hesitation? All she said was maybe......Something very big was just thrown on her, off course she looked a little hesitatant. If that's even the word you can use. You have to look at the situation, even if Lois wasn't there, Lana would have came to the same conclusion. Lois's words didn't make Lana do anything, it just reminded her who Clark was. If Lana doesn't love Clark, nothing Lois says would mean anything.

So yes Lana accepted him, with some deliberation. And she didn't handle having the secret all that well as far as I saw. her interaction with Lex in that epi, i feel is proof of how terrible her pokerface really is.

This where people are so off....IMO. Do you know who Lana is dealing with? Someone who knows Clark and Lana as good as anyone.....It didn't matter what Lana said or what poker face she had on, Lex knew....There's no getting around, if Lana has a ring on her hand from Clark, it's obvious what happened. Let me repeat, NOTHING LANA COULD HAVE SAID OR "LOOKED" would have changed what happened that day.

How didn't she accept his "dual" identity? What are you trying to say? My point is, Lana accepted Clark, WITHOUT restriction and was willingly to marry him, despite just being told the secret. Despite everything, it didn't matter to her, because she loved him and was just happy he opened up. The only mistake Lana made was trusting Lex was her friend, which was easy to believe, considering what happened the previous episode when he saved her life.

^^ I mean that the whole reason the relationship between Lana and Clark didn't work out was because she couldn't deal with his secrets and lies. She knew he was hiding a big secret from her & that he wasn't giving himself to her honestly. And that hurt her.

It seems, from what Clark said, that he thinks that this is not a problem that Lois and Oliver will have. That Lois & Oliver won't break up for the same reasons that Lana and Clark did.

I'm not dissing Lana... I totally understand why she had issues with Clark's "secrets". I actually blame Clark the whole mess that was Clana.

Yes, she accepted Clark when he told her the truth. But that's not what ended up really happening when Clark turned back time. So, in the end, their relationship ended because of the "secret" identity. That's the part of Clark that Lana could never understand or live with. That's why there's the alternate ending to "Reckoning". When Clark tells her the truth, Lana accepts him. When he continues to lie to her, she goes on a "break" from him.

Yeah, because Clark kept secrets and lied to her, it didn't work.

Or you could say it ended, because of Clark's fear of Lana knowing and getting hurt. Which was the reason he did what he did, because he didn't want her to get hurt. Remember, Clark's the one who broke it off.

It seems, from what Clark said, that he thinks that this is not a problem that Lois and Oliver will have. That Lois & Oliver won't break up for the same reasons that Lana and Clark did.

Yeah and that's mostly, because Oliver is different from Clark. Clark's issues go way beyond just having power.

Maybe not from this epi, but through out the 2 and change seasons Lois has been in SV, has seen Clark disapear and weird stuff happening around him but she never pushed for answers like Chloe and Lana did back in the earlier seasons, in fact CHloe only stoped untill she actually learned the truth and Lana, well... Lana never really quit pushing for answers. So it might not have been this epi, but Clark has seen Lois respects peoples private lifes.

Um... yeah, I agree with you. You're basically saying what I'm trying to say. (So, I guess, you're agreeing with me?? *scratches head*)

Anyway, yeah -- the Clark/Lana relationship didn't work out because Clark kept secrets from her and lied to her. Thus the reason why Clark was against the Lois/Oliver relationship. Because Oliver is doing the same thing to Lois.

Now, Clark comes in and says that he doesn't think that Lois/Oliver will end up the same way as he/Lana did. Why? Because he thinks that Lois won't react to Oliver's secrets the same way that Lana reacted to Clark's.

Because Clark/Lana broke up because their relationship couldn't withstand the strain of the "secrets and lies". Yes, technically, Clark broke up with Lana. But it wasn't just because he didn't want to hurt her -- it was because he knew he would never tell her his secret. And he knew that their relationship couldn't survive it.

And, yes, Clark has issues. I agree. I never understood why the man didn't tell Lana what was going on. The poor girl gave him enough opportunities. In canon, Lana Lang knows his secret and they remain good friends. That's how I would liked Lana/Clark to have ended up in "SV", as well.

I agree,it seems as tho clark realize that oliver secret wont ruin them like it did clana.That's why he says who is he to stand in the way if its meant to be,it should sumthin diff in clark to even admit that lois isn't lana so that was good imo.But the rest u stated about clana ur right about also

Lois mentioned learning a secret to Chloe in the episode where Chloe found out Clark's secret and Lois said, "People keep secrets for a reason, even from the people their closest to." Which applies Lois had experience with that. But in fairness to Lana, her wanting to know is much different than Lois's.

Yeah, I thought it was a good realization on Clark's part. It's something he needs to figure out to move on from Lana -- that not every girl approaches relationships the way Lana did. That not every girl is like Lana, basically. And I also like that he didn't say it in a bitter way -- he was just matter-of-fact about it. That he realized that he was letting his past experiences color his opinion about Oliver's choice to keep it a secret from Lois.

It also, I think, foreshadows Clark future relationship with Lois. That, maybe, the reason he's able to keep the secret from Lois for so long is because he's convinced himself that Lois is strong enough to handle it. That Lois isn't getting on his case, so why should he deal with the fallout that'll happen if he's honest with her?

SmallvilleMan

Now, Clark comes in and says that he doesn't think that Lois/Oliver will end up the same way as he/Lana did. Why? Because he thinks that Lois won't react to Oliver's secrets the same way that Lana reacted to Clark's.

Huh? How Lana reacted to Clark's? Lana's reaction to Clark's secret was her accepting his purposal for marriage. Lana reacted exactly the way Clark wanted her to.

Because Clark/Lana broke up because their relationship couldn't withstand the strain of the "secrets and lies". Yes, technically, Clark broke up with Lana. But it wasn't just because he didn't want to hurt her -- it was because he knew he would never tell her his secret. And he knew that their relationship couldn't survive it.

Yes, he believed he couldn't tell her the truth, so he didn't want to hurt her anymore. So came up with the crap he did to break it off.

Yeah, in all fairness to Lana, she had every freakin' right to know what was going on with Clark. I mean, he chased her. He was in love with her for years. They try and try & it never works. Finally, it works & they even sleep together. And he still holds back?? Oh yeah, Lana had every right to be p***ed.

And Lois did say that in the past -- but I think that she's not going to be so understanding about Oliver's secrets. Canon Lois is understanding to an extent. She still has issues with Clark's disappearances and stuff.... I don't think any woman is capable of being 100% understanding in this sort of situation.

Clark would have to be done not to know every girl is different.......Although most guys would say they're all the same:p ;) Personally, I think for Clark to move on, he and Lana have to come clean altogether. There tension is something that keeps Clark from moving on. Which is why reckoning sucked as much as it did, because it was perfect opportunity to set up Clana where Clark could move on.

11-09-2006, 09:24 PM

I just thought it meant that Lois and Ollie were not Lana and Clark and so would handle the situation differently. Just different people in the same scenario. I didn't take it as a strike against Lana.

Thats exactly what I took away from it as well. He wasn't saying Lois was better then Lana, he was just saying this the situation between him and Lana isn't the situation between Ollie and Lois. I don't think he was dissing Lana, or paying Lois some high compliment either. He was just saying it was a different situation. IMO

No, no... not what the actual secret was. You misunderstood me. I meant, "keeping of the secrets" in general.

Meaning that Lana had issues with the fact that Clark was keeping things from her, at all. It didn't even matter what the secret was -- it was just principle of the thing.

Versus Lois -- Clark thinks that Lois won't care that secrets are being kept. She'll respect Oliver's privacy and leave it that.

I'm not saying I agree with Clark's interpretation. I'm just saying that this is what he meant by the comparison. The difference in attitude the two women have towards the concept of "keeping secrets from the one's you love".

Okay, we're on the same page. But the funny part of all that, is that when it came to Clark keeping secrets, she would whine to him, but she would never threaten to leave him. Unlike everyone else she dated when it came to secrets. Off course Clark wouldn't pick up on that:rolleyes:

Yes, SM, we're on the same page. That's what I've been trying to tell you! ;) (And hell freezes over as a Cloiser and Clanaer agree to agree.)

Yeah, I always thought that Clark didn't give Lana enough credit. I was very disappointed with the way the ended the relationship. I remember feeling really bad for the Clana fans when "Hypnotic" aired. If AlMiles every did something like that to Clois, I'd stop watching the show.

Well, I think Clark is a coward and a wimp. However, I think it would be very hard, almost impossible for someone to find the courage to tell someone their secret after what happened to Clark in Reckoning. I haven't a watched a full episode of the show since Hypnotic. I know what's going on, but I can't watch it anymore.

I think Clark just meant that Oliver and Lois are different people and if it's meant to be it will work... It will surmount the obsticles. He can't just use what happened between himself and Lana as a blanket cautionary tale.

He's right.

Because, we all know that it works with Clark and Lois in the end, despite being in the same situation. Secrets, lies, dual identities.

Clark was really brave with Lana. He told her. She died. He confronted Jor-el to turn back time, she almost died again. I don't think it's fair to call Clark a coward b/c he was spooked by seeing Roadkill!Lana. He tried. He gave it his best shot. IMO.

Clark has no real past with Lois. She's more like a big sister than anything. If she found out I think Clark would be more afraid that his secret would get out than anything else.

Lana on the other hand was Clark's life for years. He couldn't tell her the truth because he felt responsible for her parents death and thought she would blame him. Thats why he started to lie to her in the beginning. As time went by other reasons started showing up and it eventually killed their relationship.

So they are different, completely different situations.

Clark is too much of a pansy, too much of a boy scout.
He cares too much for these pathetic mortals.
Who cares if Lana knowing his secret will lead to her death?
Who cares if telling people he is an alien with supreme ulitmate powers that can control to course of the world will get the people he cares about hurt or killed?

BAH !!

He shoudl forget about that human feelings crap and get one with his true destiny !!

Exactly. For one, Oliver is different to Clark that he fully accepts his abilities (skills) and is active in helping out other people. It creates different situations. In Oliver/Lois case it is mysterious disappearances, but in Clana's case it was about secrets and lies because Clark was holding back.

but don't foget when clark say "oliver, you and i are different" right beforehand, b/c pretty soon lois is gonna realize she and ollie are too alike, and part of the clois legacy is how different they actually are.

Nerial

11-10-2006, 12:20 PM

What I took from the line was that Ollie needed to use his own judgment when it came to Lois. Clark's experience with Lana wouldn't help because Lois is completely different from Lana.

From Reckoning, it's pretty-obvious that Lana would accept Clark, but would have a hard time dealing with his secret publicly. That's a big burden, and she didn't measure up.

From comics and almost every other Superman media, it's clear Lois wouldn't have that issue. She puts a barrier between herself and people and while that may not always be good, when it comes to protecting Clark's secret, it gives her the ability to keep it to herself. It's not a burden to her--it's just a part of being with Clark.

And, since Lana will never be Clark's wife and Lois will, this seems like a pretty-good thing in the long run. :)

I think it was as a general statement, he might as well have said everybody is diferent. I think he meant that no two people are alike so not everything aplyies the same. he also said you and I arent the same, so I think it was more along the lines of "We are all difrent people and what works for one couple doesnt have to work for the other". I dont think it was in anyway Clark saying Lois is better and this is a Loiser speaking.

Well, the issue I had with Lana's actions there (and I'm not speaking for anyone else) was that I felt that Lana should have stayed with the Kents. While it's true that Lex was her friend, she had just accepted Clark's proposal. She was going to marry him and join his family. It wasn't the time for her to be consoling Lex. She should have been congratulating her future father-in-law. It was about priorities -- I felt that Lana's were kind of screwed up.

i'm with you there eas, Lana should never have gone to Lex in Reckoning whether she ran or walked. True Lex was her friend but Clark was her fiance! She could have consoled Lex the next day or at least a little later that night, she would still have been a good friend then.

Well, the issue I had with Lana's actions there (and I'm not speaking for anyone else) was that I felt that Lana should have stayed with the Kents. While it's true that Lex was her friend, she had just accepted Clark's proposal. She was going to marry him and join his family. It wasn't the time for her to be consoling Lex. She should have been congratulating her future father-in-law. It was about priorities -- I felt that Lana's were kind of screwed up. <
Lana was the only friend Lex had, and she knew that.

If i had a friend like Lex (with Lana's knowledge about him) and i knew he only had me, i would go and see if he was okay, without a blink.

Yeah, he realizes Lois is much different than Lana and a stronger person.

But then you'd be stabbing your future father-in-law and your fiance in the back. Sure, you'd be a good friend. But you'd be a terrible fiancee.
