In the scene where Javier shows up at Clark's house, Clark says "we have milk, orange juice...lemonade!" But right in front of him, on the top shelf of the refrigerator, is a HUGE full bottle of Mott's apple juice.

You'd think Tom Welling would notice the absurdity of the line, and they'd fix either the line or the contents of the refrigerator. These writers are so god awful it makes me cringe.

That wouldn't be the writers' fault, it would be the person in charge of props.

I have a perfect explaination..Clark simply wanted the apple juice to HIMSELF! He drinks out of it too when noone is around.

I know this inside information, trust me on it haha.

Martian Manhunter: I need something to wash down these Oreos. What do you have to drink?

Clark: Let's see. We have milk, orange juice...lemonade.

Martian Manhunter: I see some apple juice also. Gimme.

Clark: No, you must be seeing things.

Martian Manhunter: I know what I saw. Gimme da juice.

Clark: Hey, I'm the one with the super eyesight here.

Martian Manhunter: I don't need super eyesight to see that.

Clark: That was just a urine sample of mine that I have to take to the doctor.

Martian Manhunter: You store your urine in the refrigerator?

Clark: Yeah, to give to Lex whenever he comes over. He's dumb enough to think it's apple juice.

Martian Manhunter: Hahahaha. You are a funny Earthling.

<Martian Manhunter leaves>

Clark: Whew. That was a close one. I almost had to give him my juice. Don't touch my Motts.

Well one thing for sure, whatever Motts paid for that product placement, on this board, they are getting what they paid for.

I like Motts. :lol:

Yeah, Motts is genius. Also- mcrumiller- the writers of the show aren't bad- and they are way better than you- thats why their writing for the show and not you.

Sometimes it amazes me with some of the threads that get started. I mean, someone actually took the time to make a thread complaining about the fact that TW forgot to mentiion the applejuice in the refrigerator.

In all honesty who gives a crap? There is making valid complaints about the episode and show in general, and then there is just nitpicking.

I didn't care for Subterannean, and there are reasons why I didn't like it. But the fact that TW didn't mention the applejuice isn't one of them.

Listen. Somebody had to mention it. I considered it a pretty glaring mistake, considering the obviousness of the apple juice. Others might disagree; woe is me.

As for Pridian, please learn proper grammar before slashing my comments. And regardless of what you say, the writers are pretty god damn awful. Whoever thought that smuggling Columbians on a farm near the Kent house fits in with the superman heritage story of Kent growing up is either on drugs or horribly misguided.

Here's a another stupid quibble: why does Javier wear well-ironed, cleaned and pressed collared shirts, while his co-workers all wear gray drab? Why did he get special privileges?

The reason I pick on the writers so much is that they come up "big pictures" and ignore details. For example, Clark can't land a punch, but he can superspeed to south america and back in the span of seconds. Anyone with Clark's speed should be able to dodge machine gun bullets, but a man who's only power is that he's strong destroys him by picking him up.

I could go on forever with the list of horrible villains that don't serve the story any purpose, except to fill space. I consider this a lack of effort on the part of the writers. Instead of designing an entire cohesive season with an ongoing arc, they create miserable sub-plots starrings criminals with stupid made-up powers that pose a "threat" to Clark, despite his infinitely superior powers.

You see, now this I agree with, and it is one of the many reasons why I didn't care for the episode. I haven't really cared for a lot of the episodes this season. The last two episodes with Static and now Subterranean have had horrible storylines.

I just thought it was a bit nit-picky to complain about not mentioning apple juice, because in the long run, the show has much bigger problems facing it, than TW messing up on the contents of the refrigerator. :D

...maybe Clark simply hates apple juice.
Or the kents use the Mott's bottle to store other stuff.
:lol:

Sure is a small fridge for a farm, maybe they have a freezer somewhere. :)

I noticed the cranberry juice too, but I didn't want even MORE people yelling at me for being nitpicky. Anyway, thanks for the still photo!

I have a farm. We have a regular fridge upstairs, but downstairs, we have another one, and two freezers. With their cattle they have to have two freezers somewhere or a great butcher.
