She doesn't have to settle for anything. She's making her own decisions here to continue on with a relationship that she's clearly not happy in. I can understand going to Lex on the rebound, but she really should take stock of her life and her feelings at this point, and try some time on her own. There's no reason she couldn't be a capable and loving single mother.

Sure, I can feel sorry for Lana that Clark didn't trust her. But as for her situation now with Lex? I can't. She can get herself out of it, yet she continues on with the charade, and thats no ones fault by her own, IMO

but you see in the world of smallville there are some very nice people who are willing to help people even if it is their responsibility for that problem.

I feel more sorry for Lana than for Chloe because she has the love of Clark (he still wants her in Labyrinth) but can't cash in on it.

But Lana's a growing girl. I think she's beginning to reject the victim mentality and learn some more survivor tricks from Lex.

I really don't feel sorry for her. How many times has Clark and Chloe and even Lois warned Lana about how Lex is? She ignored them. She is getting what she deserves. The sad part is she is stringing Clark along.. and for that, I truly dispise her.

Me, too!! I think she know what she's gotten herself into though and I think she likes the power and the lifestyle that she can have with Lex.

I think it's awful that she acts all sappy eyed around Clark...maybe she is really trying to have her cake and it eat it, too.

Yeah I agree but it was hers to make, LOL.

I think being with Lex is actually a good thing right now it's really evolving her character, she's not the Cheerleader we saw in previous episodes and she's becoming more aware about the decisions she has made or about to make, and I think she's learning that from Lex. And she will feel betrayed when she finds about what Lex has been doing to her, and I think when she begins to see the whole picture, she'll be more protective of herself and know when someone is trying to play her into a game (like lex has done now).

Side Note: Women act on their emotions not on their logic.

When did Chloe warn Lana about Lex? Never saw it happen. When Lana came to her for advice about her relationship with Lex, Chloe did not say anything about Lex and what she knows. She told Lana to practically go for it (and no I won't go as far to suggest Chloe made Lana sleep with Lex). But she did not warn her about Lex. Also Chloe was involved in Justice where the future JLA went after 33.1, and in the end of the episode, Oliver informed both her and Clark that Lex had other level 33.1 locations all over the world. Did Chloe ever tell Lana that? No she did not. This leads me to the conclusion that RedKClark was absolutely right in what he said about Chloe in Crimson...that she actually wants Lana off the market. There are countless episodes where Chloe is telling Clark to just get over Lana. If she were a good friend to Clark she would say...tell Lana your secret. She won't be in any danger as I know your secret and nothing has happened to me.

Lana's so stupid sometimes, she suspects that Clark is a meteor freak yet shes only TRIED asking it once in the series!

All she'd have to say is..."Clark you're always there when I'm about to die, and for some strange reason you're able to toss people bigger than you around like horse shoes. I know you're some sort of meteor freak...the jigs up!"

And then Clark could be like..."yep you got me...I'm affected by the meteor rocks..."

Hey its not the whole truth but nevertheless its still true!

For sure. I agree that she got herself into this mess, even after everyone warned her repeatedly. She is just not a street smart girl, and Lex knew exactly what buttons to push to get her to do what he wanted her to do. She definitely has been manipulated, and I can feel sorry for her in that regard. But everyone told her she would be, and she told them to mind their own business. So it's hard to feel 100% sorry for her.

The girl has had a rough life; parents killed at 3, finds out her father isnt her real father, ex boyfriend dies, etc.

But how her life is now; DONT feel sorry for her. It's her own fault. She always knew who Lex truly was, and chose to ignore her insticts. In part because she just wanted to be happy finally so she ignored what she really knew. And secondly because she DID want to get back at Clark on some level, definetely. You can always tell she never TRULY wanted to be with Lex. She hesitated before making sure it was REALLY over with Clark before accepting his proposal; she was almost devestated when she learned she was pregnant, etc. She knows this isnt what she wants for herself, yet she continues on her path anyway. HER FAULT. For some people saying in one thread that she kicks so much butt, is scrappy, can defend herself, she certainly doesnt do much where it really counts does she? The only reason she is NOW acting like Lex is her one and only (which she isnt doing very well at anyway) is because she has made the decision to marry him, and she is acting FOR HERSELF now. She has to stick with her decisions because she is going to be a wife and mother, and making herself believe it was always what she wanted is the only way she can survive it.

And just like when she was with Clark; she knew from the beginnig he would always have secrets, and keep things from her, YET she stayed with him on and off for YEARS, even though she knew she couldnt handle that. She tortured herself with that, her own choice. Most people when they realize a relationship is doomed because there is something about the other person that you know you couldn't live with, most people cut and run as to not get hurt in the long run; because they can see it coming. She saw it coming and stood right in front of the bullet train of pain.

And she is STILL doing it, now with Lex. And with Lex, a doomed end result is even more obvious then it was with Clark...I don't think this girl has alot of thatchers if you ask me; not where it counts.

true about chloe practically telling her to go for it with lex, but i do remember in rage when lana asked chloe to research that half way house thing. chloe told her there was some thing she should know about lex's involvement in it and lana said that she didn't want to hear anymore about lex. so she's tried, and again in static about 33.1.

BINGO.

What a little liar, in just the previous episode she was telling Chloe that would never ask her to betray Clark's secret as long as she admitted he had one. Then she tries to hack into her computer to find information, and sneaks around through Clark's things and his home.

IMO the title 'Trespass' is referring to Clark's invasion of privacy, not Lana's.

Lana: My love life? With Lex? You've gotta be kidding me.
Chloe: Lana, it's okay to be honest. I'm not gonna burn you at the stake.
Lana: There is nothing to be honest about, Chloe. So I'd appreciate it if you stopped spinning your rumor mill before you humiliate me any more than you already have.
Chloe: I understand if you wanna hurt Clark.
Lana: What?
Chloe: But just don't hurt yourself in the process. Lex Luthor is nothing more than a predator.
Lana: Well, I don't plan on being anybody's prey. So we have nothing to worry about.

Wasn't Chloe right all along!

NO haha. This is what Lana does, she is hyper-sensitive about people judging her on her bad decisions (because she knows they are bad too) and jumps up on her pedastal to defend herself, when really, people are just trying to help her. Because its obvious to everyone the girl has no mind of her own. Even though she goes around shouting from the rooftops that she 'cant be manipulated' and that she can take care of herself; but all of her actions prove this isnt the case. Not to mention she has no qualms about snooping and digging into other's lives (when it doesnt effect her own, and its just to soothe her own vicious curiosity), but shoots off ammo at anyone within 50 feet of her who merely have any OPINION about what she is doing in HER life. UGH LANA. I have no idea why anyone but Lex puts up with you...

That was great, so greatly put.

And Chloe realizing that Lana was searching through her computer would've made my day, and still can.

I disagree with one poster that women act with emotion instead of logic, not all do-BUT Ms. Lana Lang is written all emotionally:

Lana has known all along what Lex is about

The only one who has not had a bad thing to say about the Luthors was probably her Aunt Nell, who had parties at the Mansion.

Lana has had a flirtation with Lex for many seasons.

Lana knew his previous 2 marriages lasted like 2 seconds, both wives tried to kill him-not a good sign.

Lana has known that many people have tried to kill/kidnap/hurt/blowup Lex. Lex is innocent in all of this AND SHE THINKS HE IS TRUTHFUL? Yeah, I know to her, yeah, right

When Clark broke up with Lana, and they were barely going out at that point anyway, she ran right to Lex. Other than a story line, it made no sense.... Go to see your Aunt Nell, (even if she hasn't been mentioned in 3 years), see Chloe and b**ch about that stupid farmboy, go to a sad movie, go cry your eyes out in your room, buy a lot of chocolate, go tip the Kent's cows, drink yourself silly, etc. Instead, she goes looking for the guy that Clark in not getting along with so well, and besides he rich, and she's not working and he has a mansion and a yacht and a plane and a billion dollars..

Yes, poor Lana, is an orphan, but wait, she has a father. AND her Aunt gave up 10 YEARS of her life to live in Smallville to raise Lana like a daughter-Lana begrudged Nell when Nell wanted to get to be with her fiance who need to live in the city. But it was okay for Lana to have a boyfriend. And everything the Nell did was wrong. Artificial tree, didn't tell her that her mother didn't like cheerleading-Oh! MY! GOD!

I am sorry, Lana is in due to her own fault. Lana ran to Lex, moved in with Lex, (chloe was able to find housing and they didn't have homeless college students runing around the streets of smallville). Lana had plenty of time to leave. Even after she found out she was pregnant, she could have got out. NOW-she has to stay. BUT-she does not have to marry Lex.

I always felt Lana was a very independant girl. I just wish they could've kept her single. Season 3 was the only time she wasn't in a relationship with anyone, but she was holding out for Clark.

ginnyfan

02-09-2007, 05:36 PM

I don't get it. Lana has more than two choices: Clark Kent or Doom.

I refuse to see her as a little victim who's just lost because Clark didn't tell her his secret. If Clark is on one end of the spectrum and Lex on the other I'm sure there are a lot of nice guys in between. Lana CHOSE to be with Lex. And if she made that decision because of Clark not telling his secret it's still all Lana's fault not Clark's. She's the one who charts the course of her life.

I personally think she's reached her breaking point with Clark and Chloe dancing around the obvious and she's decided to just dig up the secret on her own. I think Lana was lying to the psycho security guard so he'd bring his head close enough that she could Lana~fu it with her vase. *giggle*

I agree with your post. A while back I read the following thread:

http://www.kryptonsite.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=56867

Now I don't believe that Lana will be evil & rule with Lex, but Lex definitely wanted Lana, and I think he wanted her since Metamorphosis. He knew that Clark was a good guy who would only be into honest & decent girls, and since Lex wanted someone who was like her mother & found those qualities in Lana, he knew he would have to manipulate her over the years to trust him so that one day he could hook up with her. The Talon and all those favors Lex did were for this. Lana even knew it when her inhibitions were taken away by the Nicodemus flower and said it straight to Lex in his face. This was way before Onyx, when Evil Lex (who was a part of Lex) made a move on her.

I'm wondering if Lana hadn't gotten involved with him, if he would have made her life miserable to coerce her into ultimately hooking up with him. If Lexana was inevitable no matter what (even if Lana found out Clark's secret years before), I wonder if she would have still been forced to hook up with him by an unrelenting Lex. I do know that Helen Bryce was the 1 person who could have prevented that and taken Lex's attention from Lana, but after she tried to kill him, that was all over.

As for now, I don't think she could leave Lex, since he may kill her or Nell, or even try to kill Clark.

I disagree, in episode 100 , lana left the kent party to show a drunken lex her engagement ring.
If was she truly in love with clark, she would have left the party....regardless.
Lana knew prior to episode 100 that lex was investigating/obsessed with clark.
You don't leave your engaged to go see his druken rival.

I dont really get how Lex liking her and doing nice things for her is considered evil manipulation.

So what if he liked her and did nice things for her to get her to like him. I dint conisder that a bad thing. We all do it. Clark did it many times too. Technicly according to you, every nice thing that Clark has ever done for ehr can be considered a form of "manipulation"

I think Lana has found a great husband in Lex. He loves her alot more than Clark and is willing to do anything for her. even inviting clark to the wedding dispite the fact that Clark has repeatedly attacked Lex.

He may have wanted her since then, but when he married Helen Bryce he was planning on spending the rest of his life with her. At that point, he didn't care about Lana like that. If Helen hadn't did what she did, they might still be together.

You have to admit though, Lana doesn't love Lex. Did you see the reaction on her face as Lex kissed her at the end of the episode from last night? Also, did you see Lex's face as he turned from Lana and left her room after he kissed her and was saying how he trusted her and everything.

I'm not saying it was bad, back then. But when he realized the time had come to break them up and pay off Simone to do what she did, that was bad.

What I'm mainly saying here is that if/since Lex is destined to be evil no matter what according to the cave legend and from what we know of the future Lex, then eventually, it would be inevitable that he would act on his desires shown in Metamorphosis and throughout the series and do whatever it takes to get her (make her life a living hell, or even appear as a hero as Lionel did to Martha in Cyborg with that DVD ploy. And this is evil manipulation. If Lex would have trapped Lana regardless by eventually doing what I just said, then Lana was screwed 1 way or another. But the thing is, I would feel 100% sorry for her in that case since it would be beyond her control. It is truly a shame that TPTB didn't take that route and instead destroyed the Lana character.

I think Lana has found a great husband in Lex. He loves her alot more than Clark and is willing to do anything for her. even inviting clark to the wedding dispite the fact that Clark has repeatedly attacked Lex.

Hahahahaha!!!!!!! I hope you don't believe that. After his words of what he would do if he lost her, I think she would be nuts to think of Lex as a good husband. And little does she know what her "great future husband" is doing to her, inside her own body.

Yes, I know. I acknowledged that in my post above.

Exactly. Lana is not the type of girl who is all excited about her upcoming marriage. How many girls have a marriage coming up and instead of planning, are in super investigation mode into their ex's biggest secret? As I said in another thread, Lana know she's teetering over the edge and is deathly afraid of what she sees and is looking for Clark's secret as a final way out of her marriage since she is too scared to leave Lex without a reason (albeit one that she won't reveal to him).

KryptonX81

02-09-2007, 06:14 PM

Well, I disagree, but you do bring up some interesting points, like in some of the other threads.

However your post did give me an an idea of how last night's episode could have gone.

what if, instead of the photographer attacking her being payed by the secret service man, what if the photogrpaher was payed by Lex in a way to make Lana scared and feel that the only way she is safe is locked away in teh mansion with Lex.

Lana is with Lex because she always has to have a boyfriend and he is rich and will provide her with material things. She's playing victim instead of standing up on her own two feet and taking care of herself. Lana needs to grow up and act her age. She is not the only person to have bad things happen to her. There were plenty of other people who lost parents. Chloe's mother basically has been absent most of her life. Lois lost her mother early. Let's not forget Clark's biological parents died. Plus others lost their families in the meteor shower just like Lana. If Lex is a bad man and you don't like him anymore, then leave. Plus, I just wish she'd stop using men period. You can tell both she and Lex are using each other. There's no love or trust there at all. Give back the chisel Lex. Stop lying Lana. Didn't buy one bit the reason she went back to the Kent Farm was because it was the last place they would look. It was #1) to be with Clark because she still loves him and #2) to snoop around.

This would have been much better and would have added on to Lex's evil doings. I tried making a theory that Lex was away all that time so that Lana would be uninhibited by his presence and not hide things--because he knew about the chisel and had cameras set up everything. So he could have allowed the stalker to do all that he did because somehow he knew Clark would arrive, and he hoped to get something on his cameras.

But this would be too complicated, and would probably go against their current plans.

feel bad for her, the writers coulda done a better job of making her a character that u sympathise with, instead they made her moan and complain and become annoying.

bottom line if u tell her story to anyone who hasn't seen smallville they would feel sorry for her

I can understand going to Lex on the rebound, but she really should take stock of her life and her feelings at this point, and try some time on her own. There's no reason she couldn't be a capable and loving single mother.

Sure, I can feel sorry for Lana that Clark didn't trust her. But as for her situation now with Lex? I can't. She can get herself out of it, yet she continues on with the charade, and thats no ones fault by her own, IMO

I really feel sorry for Lana but i think you are right!
but i don't think the writers will make it happen :rolleyes:

I love the character of Lana and i really want her to be happy

I seriously believe Lana needs psychiatric help to deal with her issues! Having a counseler would do her some good in the future.

BTW, I think a few of you are getting a little carried away about this "wanting her to die" thing. Sure she's messed up but that doesn't give us the right to crucify her! How would you like it if you had people talking trash about you and threatening your life because you were going through some emotional problems? I've actually been through that and trust me, it isn't cool. :mad:

well you know, considering she is a FICTIONAL character on a television show and all...Im pretty sure (just throwing it out there) she wont really mind.

that being said, it absolutely gives us the right to crucify her! thats what TV is for; so we can release our need to unfoundly judge other people and their situations without consequence in the real world...DUH:rolleyes:

I disagree with this, I don't have to feel sorry for Lana and here is why:

- Lana knew that it's dangerous to be around the Luthors (Zero).
- Lana knew that Lex was investigating Clark/the Kents.
- Lana knew Lex lied about the existance of the spaceship.
- Clark warned her, but it was shortly after the breakup, so I understand her ignoring this.
- Chloe found her evidence about Lex's misdeeds at the halfway house, but she purposefully ignored it. True she was pregnant, but you'd think that would make her more interested in knowing what kind of man the father of her unborn child is.
- The scientist that SHE threatened warned her of the dangers of the Luthors and advised her to get away from them. He also told her that Lex began weapons testing, meaning she knew that he lied to her about his progress.
- In Fallout, she asks Lex to choose between her and the Kryptonian device. Lex says nothing. For once she displays intelligence and is about to leave, but the Phantom tosses Lex so she forgives him immediately.

So, Lana knew well before hand what getting it meant to get involved with Lex, and the Luthors in general. If anyone, I feel sorry for Kristen Kreuk, being stuck with a character that is nothing short of a revolting person.

All of the above points are well taken, but one thing is clear, Lana is an adult, she has to accept responsibility for her statements and actions all of them, she can't endlessly blame her parent's death or other people lying to her. She was the one who went to Lex and had sex with him, she was the one who choose to believe his lies, when and if all of this hits the fan, she is going to have no one to blame except herself, hopefully she will gain some hard won wisdom from all of this and be less judgemental of other people.

Lana deserves everything that happens to her, sometimes she even deserves a lot more. She knew the consequences of her actions and yet she goes through with them anyways, and her being "pregnant" is no excuse. So hell no I don't feel sorry for her.

Exactly. Chloe warned her about Lex. She has seen his "dark side." She is no victim by any means.

Lana's fun to hate, certainly easy to do so, but I don't really hate her anymore. Bashing her got old. :D

Also, in Bound, she knew what happened with Lex's women, though I know her motivations for being with Lex were because she was a gold digger (I still don't think she is one) but rather to somehow get back at Clark. She even talked about his other women after reading that article about the "Next Lex Girl" in Wither.

Even though she is not a victim, I do feel bad for her with the experiment Lex is doing with her body.
