Lana lost the baby! (merged)

[Supermansthebest]

Lana lost the baby! OMG

[niki]

I know I've been posting here a lot, but ... yeah, Lana losing the baby, even as mysterious as that storyline was from the beginning, was incredibly sad to see.

I don't like sobbing Lana. :(

BUT! My theory is ...
That "sparking cider" that Lex gave her brought upon complications. And Lex told the doctor he wanted a minute alone because he told the doctor that Lana is 'hallucinating' about having a baby or something and he wanted to be alone with her for a minute ... and then reveal they lost the baby.

Err, yes I know it's a bit of a bizarre theory but that's what I think!

Just goes to show that you should never drink while pregnant. Or live in Smallville. Or marry a Luthor.

Especially when Lex hands it to you. :lol:

[redraven]

Niki, That's what I thought. Lex probably did spike her cider...he probably couldn't keep up the baby sharade with out Dr. Langston.

[cmm]

lex to lana: i'm sorry but they're were complications and you lost the baby.

What lex really meant to say: I poisoned you so that you'd lose the freak I implanted inside you and tried to pass off as your baby.

So true. Same rule applies to my cooking. :lol:

[Raging Clue]

Lex was the one who faked her pregnancy, so he has to make her believe that she was pregnant and she lost it. I think Niki's theory is right.

[i luv tom welling]

ETA: nevermind

[idunowinks]

i didnt think about him saying she is haveing hallucenations, but there was def. something in her cider. what a sick sick man he is.

[TheRowdy]

I actually felt REALLY bad for Lana in that scene. :\

[SecretzNLyz15]

My theory..Lex faked the pregnancy to keep Lana. Now that she's pulling away..he 'kills' the baby to make her more vulnerable and needy so she doesn't pull away..that Bastard >.<


All the people who say that Lex loves Lana..stop living in denial. Lex cares for only Lex..

[SuperDuperTrooper]

Lana definately must have the record for the most hospital visits!!!

[superhippie2000]

my guess is lex stole the fetus. hummmm. i think he poisoned her on purpose.

Thank you for joining us :lol:

The last few episodes have already confirmed that.

[SecretzNLyz15]

^^ No..people thought that he would kill the baby because the scam was successful, he got Lana and didn't need to keep it up anymore.

Now..it has another reason..to make Lana even more vulnerable and needy...there's a difference.

[Krpyto]

The baby is in a test tube or something and will resurface guaranteed.

[Ginx]

that baby is so not gone - it's growing in a lab somewhere I'm betting......sick sick Lex.

[Tropicaltalent]

Alternate Theory: The baby is Clark's... Lex fed it kryptonite...?

[supermanfan04]

i think lex removed the baby, or whatever it is, from lana. did you see the look that the doctor gave him? and the phone call to the doctor at the end of the episode? of course we know he's up to something, but you can't ignore those moments...

[*#~ ClAnAfAn99210~#*]

i wish the baby wa clarks but thats so impossible even though women that have been impregnated by a kryptonian man starts showing 11 months after fertulization.

a little more than 11 months so its wrong. :(

no lex implanted her and lost hope without the other doctor. cidar was spiked. Lana files 'Divorce'.

CLANA LIVES!

[Tropicaltalent]

If this is a faithful version, but who knows...? There was definately something unusual about that baby even if it was implanted.

This isn't smallville related but I just had to say i LOVE your avatar. LOL:rotfl:

[Tomsgurl88]

I really felt Lana's pain during that moment and when she was sitting in the nursery, great acting by KK as well.

[myankskent]

I don't think that Lana was ever pregnant...I think that Lex caused the miscarriage...actually we don't even know if she did miscarried since she was past out. Lex got his little marriage so now he flipped the switch on the "supposed" pregnancy, IMO. That doctor was clearly working with him, just like Langston in the previous episodes, helping him to cover everything up.

I agree,I dont believe she was pregnant either but as u said now that lex got the marriage he wanted he dropped the whole baby manip.The only thing that seems to bother him now is tryin to get lana to move on,he actually looked hurt.But I think that was more so cause lana has been pullin back and now wit the baby supposingly gone she will definitely pull back.I dont think lex expected her to be so attach to a baby that may have never been there in the first place.

[biggkoz]

So that was cider I missed what he said. Im guessing they took the baby out and its now in bell reeve cooking into a monster.

You contadicted yourslef in that sentence. your like i dont think she ever was p-word. then your like LEX CAUSED THE MISCARRIDGE. watch what you say cuz you conused me and i dont get confused easily. :) :rotfl:

[cmm]

I think she was preggers, how else would you explain all of her symptons. I don't think the kid is dead neither I think it's hidden somewhere.

Sorry...I'll be more careful next time.:)

[*#~ ClAnAfAn99210~#*]

i kinda agree.

like i dont think its in a tank where they can study the embrio, but i think they took it out. maybe it was the tea that lex gave her everyday that gave her symptoms. i dont know. all i know after this epi is that in the next few--which isnt much--Clana is back on track. she knows his secret and she protected him for once. amazing. LMAO. i absolutley love this show. i can read it like a book. and not the comic book that i can read but dont! yeah this show has become quite predictable. but w/e. :)

[Ville317]

I think Lex's speech to Lana in the baby room was interesting. He almost slipped and asked Lana if there was anything he could do to make up for this, but changed it to help take away the pain. This is the final nail in the Lexana coffin. Thank God. Bring back the Clana.

[spideyfan]

Lex poisoned Lana.
Lex has the baby.
The baby is mutant.

[Meteror Freak]

I am so sad that the baby died. I thought maybe the baby was injected with Clark's frozen blood sample from season 3! And the baby would grow up to have special abilites. And it would kinda be like superman returns only with lana as the mother instead of Lois. That would have been cool. But now none of that will ever happen.:(

Also, I don't think Lex poisoned Lana's cider (even though that's something he might do,) because he was surprised when he found Lana on the floor.

[Insight]

I told my sister when he gave her the 'cider' that he was poisoning her to take the baby.

Later on whe yelled at me for always being right. :)

All the people who say that Lex loves Lana..stop living in denial. Lex cares for only Lex..

If Lex faked the pregnancy, then why did Dr. Langston talk about Lana's "condition" last week? She wouldn't have a "condition" if it was faked and he wouldn't ask for the money, unless Lex paid him to switch the ultrasound video from another woman & drug her with stuff that caused similar symptoms. But if that were the case, I wouldn't classify a fake pregnancy as a condition like Langston did.

I thought that he was just making her think it's dead and that when it's ready for birth, he will slip her some drug so that he could have it removed from her and have it grow up in some location without Lana ever finding out, but die before any of that happens.

This is what I thought, but that instead of killing it, he just told her that it's dead.

[boywithbluehanger]

Is it possible that Lex's temporary induced powers affected his "swimmers" too?

This thought also came to my mind. I'm thinking he either did this & lied to Lana about it dying or it's still in her and he's lying. Either way, he's lying.

That doctor was clearly working with him, just like Langston in the previous episodes, helping him to cover everything up.

I think his main reason for doing that would be to manipulate Lana to get closer to him. He obviously noticed how she pulled away when he went in for the kiss.

By the way, isn't that doctor a Belle Reve doctor and not a family doctor? He even lied about that. I'm sure that she was the Belle Reve doctor in Mortal.

[Kreukie]

I believe there was no baby to begin with, that the only reason Lex fake it was to reel Lana in.

Because you have to remember, in the same episode Lana found out she was pregnant she had Chloe do research on Lex and the episodes before then Lana was running off behind Lex's back.

So this was Lex way of reeling Lana in, then act like the supportive boyfriend or whatever, I wouldn't doubt it if Lex planned the whole kidnapping without the kidnapper knowing he was being used as a tool along the way to break Lana down even more.

Lana's "condition" was that she was drugged into feeling as though she was pregnant. The doctor was going to tell Lana she wasn't pregnant and never was if Lex didn't give him 2 million dollars and why he choose to do it on the wedding day is most likely because he knew afterwards they were going to use the miscarriage card and he would no longer be needed.

I said something similar about the episode Trespass, but that Lex paid Mack off to be the stalker when it was Lex who was the real stalker.

I don't know if I would call that a condition. I would define condition as a disease or an infliction, not the absence of one.

[Deana]

I felt sorry for Lana. I don't think Lex realized just how devastated she would be. You don't play with a woman's mind like that. You just don't.

She should kill the bald eagle for this, but of course he stays alive to obsess over Superman.

[Luv Clana/Hate Lexana]

Wanted to strangle Lex when they were at the hospital. And then for Lana to think it was her fault... yeah, Lex is going to hell.

[paolinki25]

Like I said before, this storyline is so weird, I'm losing interest, but count me in as one who thinks this "baby" is growing somewhere in a lab. AlMiles said the baby will play a big role in the final episodes of this season, so getting rid of it just like that doesn't make sense.

[Kreukie]

I wouldn't believe everything Almiles said, they said Ryna or whatever her name was, was going to be a love interest to Clark and that never ever happened.

I believe when they say that the baby will play a major role in the finale is that Lana finding out the truth that there was no baby and how she'll end up turning the tables on Lex with the help of Clark.

[BadToad]

I had a lot more sympathy for Lana this week then last week. No woman, anywhere, EVER should be messed with in this way. And anyone that would do that to someone they claim to love is so beyond heinous, there isn't a word for it.

[msleggie]

I don't particularly like Lana, but I felt kind of bad for her when I saw how messed up she was. It's so sad b/c on some level, she married lex b/c she was pregnant. And now she's his wife, and it's really no turning back. Then on top of that, she was sitting in the baby's room and she looked a mess. When Lana found out she'd lost the baby, and lex and the doctor exchanged glances, I was so angry at Lex for what he'd done to her.

[Kreukie]

I finally saw clips of Lana in this episode and my gosh, that was sad!

Lex is a total [insert really bad name here] for doing that to her!

[jonathan'sghost]

Yup the baby is now gone to a testube somewhere???

Lex is just playing Lana as long as he can...What happens to her now?? He used her as the host for the test tube meteor freak now does he off her???

[citizenlen]

What confuses me is the picture of the baby at the end. Clearly that's a real baby
from Lana. Why would he burn it unless he's trying to get rid of evidence.

[xrayvision]

I wonder if his nightmare from Promise will be relevant. No spoilers please.

ya and also at the end when he is burning all the stuff and the picture of the baby if he was faking everything or whatever why was he crying

[puppiesnkittens]

This is a pretty f@@#ed up storyline. Lex is really breaking some codes that no one should ever break. It is pretty awful for Lana.

Exactly. I think it was odd he was burning the pictures of a real baby if there wasn't any baby at all. I think that little, poor creature is being "grown" somewhere.

hmm...I don't think so. I think that he was burning the picture so that Lana didn't have them to possibly give to another doctor and have the risk of that doctor say that she wasn't really pregnant to begin with. That might be why all of her files were burned as well, but I guess time will tell. Also, wouldn't Lana have some sort of a wound from being cut open so Lex and his doctors could take the baby out?

[paolinki25]

Well, yeah, that's possible. Honestly, this whole baby storyline doesn't make the slighest of sense to me right now. :lol:

[citizenlen]

In due time, all will be revealed.

[Ardiem3]

Did anyone else get he impression that Lex had put something in Lanas wine to make her stomach get weird to have her have the same feelings and symptoms of something going terribly wrong. When Lex gave her the drink, he watched her drink hers and the music changed a little, and then he drank his. Anyone else catch this? And the whole baby thing was a lie to get Lana to marry him. When Lex had the dream about the evil baby, it was his guilt that made the baby seem evil.

[idunowinks]

theres already multiple threads on this theory, everyone seems to pretty much agree that lex did something to the drink.

[smallvillerocks45]

I completely agree with you. Lex knew that if he could even make her think she was pregnant with his child, she'd marry him. He was right. Then he realizes that sooner or later a baby is expected to come into the world, but since he tricked her into believing she was pregnant, he had to trick her into thinking there was a miscarriage. Tsk, Tsk, Lex is a sneaky man...and poor Lana is devastated.

[moody12381]

Either that or, and this is speculation on my part I hate spoilers even on cars, Lex took the baby out and it is in a lab somewhere incubating and it will become a villain sometime in the future.

[Super Maverick]

word.

[smallvilleobsessor17]

And it wasn't wine, it was sparkling cider.

[msleggie]

Yeah, Lex put something in her drink, that's why the music was so dark in that scene. But it wasn't wine, Lex wouldn't do that b/c at the time she was "pregnant."

[CLSmith]

Don't forget the look between Lex and his "family doctor."

-cs™

[C Redfield]

It was spiked cider. My guess is the baby is made with Clark's DNA form Lex's hand on Dark Thursday. Use the stuff they used on Lana's childhood friend. You have a fully grown up Clark with the mind of a child(Bizarro). If Lex is having nightmares about the ultrasound the baby should be real.

Yeah, this episode really did make me feel for Lana. That is just sick and twisted.

Hm... I never considered that Lex fabricated the pregnancy--that would be difficult, considering pregnant women stop ovulating and have morning sickness....

I too agree Lex poisoned Lana, removed the baby, and is experimenting on it for his own messed up curiosity. But nevertheless, I think Lex genuinly cares about Lana. He did offer Lionel 33.1 and LutherCorp to ensure Lana would be with him. I think Lex has a huge inner-conflict-guilt-complex right now: he loves Lana, but does not know what to do if she leaves him, especially if she finds out about what he is doing with the baby.

[Mysticlies]

I think KK did a great job in both the hospital and nursery scenes. Both scenes equally heartbreaking.


However I'm going to agree with those people who believe that there was a real baby somewhere, whether it was in Lana's body, or in some hidden Lab. The picture in the end was practically what sold me, why else would there be a picture of the fetus. I'm no specialist, but does anyone know how old a fetus in that picture would be? and when Lana announced she was pregnant? I know that sometimes the timeline in Smallville moves weird, but questions like these may lead to answers.


And on a friendly side note: please if anyone has been reading the spoilers, do not repost them here as a theory of your own; unless you truly believe your theory is free of spoilers(as in you haven't read any spoilers yet). That way its only fair for those who don't want to be spoiled :)

[Billy Jor-El]

Yes, it's best not to spoil the baby.

[Welling_is_pretty]

was anyone else blown away by Kristin's acting in the scenes where Lana los the baby and then when Lex told her?
That has to be some of Kristin's finest acting to date.
I don't like Lana but even I was filled with gut-wrenching sympathy.
Great job, Kristin!

That's actually what I thought too. I think the lengths Lex is willing to go through to have and keep Lana will be shocking when we find out the whole story. I actually liked the end scene with Lana in the dark staying in the nursery for days. Maybe we will get to see Lana's dark side as she tries to discover what happened.

Also, I liked that she was distraught despite her doubts, and thought it was heart breaking when she apologized for loosing the baby, as if it was her fault and she did something wrong. Well written and acted.

Yeah, I don't really care for Lana's character either, but I thought she did a great job in that scene.

[maxxx]

Does Lex still have possesion of Clark's blood? If so, then there is a chance that the baby might be a clone of Clark. On another note, did Lana remove her wedding ring? I had people over and I couldn't concentrate on the details. I got the impression that when Lex was consoling her at the Mansion, he noticed that she wasn't wearing her ring when he held her hand.

No, if Lex still had Clarks blood, we woud know about it. Didnt Clarks blood end up in Helen Bryces or Jon Kents hands anyways. I thought the blood vile was destroyed also?

[chlo-el]

Yeah it does look like Lex put something in her drink.

I don't know if Lex still has Clark's blood. I always thought that he did, but then again maybe he used it all up when the experiments on Adam were being conducted. IDK, I wish the show would mention it again, because it would be nice to know.

---
As for the wedding ring. Yes, Lana was wearing it.

[Crusader]

Ok here's my theory... That when Lana was unconcious she had the baby taken out, then lex could say that she lost the baby as she would not give birth to it and she wouldn;t expriece any pains, bumps etc in her stomach.

Looking at the picture that Lex burnt the baby looked pretty far developed and so it could be possible that lex had it removed and is in some like luthorcorp lab container or something,

it must be a meteor freak baby or a baby with sme powers i order for all this fuss to be made about it.

[Loislvesclark]

I thought that the sample of Clark's blood lost it's "powers" after it was exoposed to kryptonite. I think it was rendered useless. I could be wrong...

I did think about the baby being stored or grown somewhere else, but I don't know why Lex would burn the picture. The baby looked normal in the sonogram, but maybe it wasn't even a picture of what was actually inside of her.

[ivyharris21]

hi everyone! im new to this place.... but i'm not sure if anyone has said this yet?... but what if lex had the doctors take the baby to do what ever he's trying to do with the baby... i mean when he burned the pictures and everything in the fireplace and told that dr on the phone he never heard of lana luther,... it sounds to me like hes up to somthing really bad! i mean well duh thats common sense but like he knows the baby isn't dead. he has it in some stange vault like place being tested on with his sicko doctors.

[Loislvesclark]

definitely a posibility.

[Angelina2809]

I felt sorry for Lana! No matter what is was in Lana's stomach, it must be painful for a mother to lose a baby - Lana do not know that something was wrong in her pregnancy so it was a real pain for her that she had lost her baby and she feels guilty that she had lost Lex's baby!!!! How cruel Lex is that he let Lana believe that! Okay, Lex said to Lana that it was not her fault but his words cannot change Lana's feelings. He is responsible for Lana's bad thought's and feelings!!!! Had you saw Lana's face and body talk as she was sitting in the baby room? Lex was not able to take Lana's pain away! I am sure she wished that Clark would be there for her! What a kind of relationship is that what Lana and Lex have?! She is just with him because of Lionel!!!!
Yes, I feel sorry for her!

I feel sorry for her to in a way but it is partially her fault. She should of got away from Lex when she had the chance. Now, shes forced to live with Lex as his wife to keep Clark alive. What is she going to do now?

[xrayvision]

^^Yup. As wrong as it was what Lex did to her, she was given enough warning by Clark & Chloe (even Lois) starting way back in Fade, before her hand was impaled, and before any other damage was done to her. I still felt bad for her though. But Lex is doing and becoming what & who he's supposed to be.

Yea, with whats going on now, Lana has a gut feeling in her mind and heart that what everyone has said about Lex is coming to be. She knows that hes the not best guy in the world and has her doubts about him. She married him but she dosent really LOVE him. Shell eventually come to see that he is as bad as everyone says he is and when she breaks it off with him, this will make him even more angry and push him farther into the evil person hes destined to become.

[Baka-Chan]

Hope ya dont mind if I start a new Theory:

"Human host for unborn babys"
Lex pragned Lana with his Gene's, get her through some KryptoniteTherapy and removed the unborn embrio from Lana.

Then he transplated it into someone else, so he still could have a hand on "Ares" ;)

[LittleJerryPecks]

i'm pretty convinced that lex has the fetus and is growing it somewhere else.....i mean think about it, how could lex get away with having a freak baby, ........so instead he fakes the miscarriage and gets the baby figure out of the public eye

[Loislvesclark]

It did look like he was crying when he was burning the sonogram and files. Did anyone else see that?

[Bladesworn]

Lana was pregnant. Off course, Lex probably had a hand in doing some 'extra-work' into the pregnancy. Giving Lana 'special vitamins' and such other stuff. Now ready for the kicker...

Chloe was taken in Freak. The green laser target was over her stomach...

Chloe has been artificially inseminated with the baby from Lex and Lana that has been mutated with green-k.

That's why Lex had no problems swearing on the life of the baby before in a prior episode, because he planned on the baby being in a surrogate. Maybe even inseminate into other females.

[Loislvesclark]

hmmmm, that's an interesting theory that definitely never occured to me.

Then why did Lana feel pains in her stomach? and why did Lex say that the baby was dead if the baby is in Chloe? Wouldnt Chloe also be feeling signs of the baby if she was a surrogate?

All in all a sad pathetic attempt at ratings with a very serious subject (miscarriage).

It just seems like they wanted to go to somewhere really great with the whole baby storyline but backed themselves in a corner with how to resolve it. They got bored with the plot and just seemed to drop it like it was no big deal which is unfortunate. I hope that they wrap up the whole baby storyline more better by the end of the season instead of just saying it died.

[Loislvesclark]

I think that Lex burning all of the stuff implied that there would be more to the storyline. I think that there will be more closure and drama surrounding it.

[maxxx]

There might be a chance that either Lex has cloned a freak clone of himself or that he has instructions, given to him by Zod, for enegineering human DNA into a Kryptonite-like being. That is why Lex had the nightmare. This baby would one day be beyond his control. He didn't steal the fetus, he aborted it thus saving the world from an "anti-christ". It is obvious that Lex is a bit schizo, and that sometimes he is guided by the "Good Lex" and other times he is guided by the "Evil Lex". The "Evil Lex" planted the "evil baby" in Lana hoping to have his son as his ally in his bid to conquer the globe, but the "Good Lex", who truly loves Lana, did not want to harm her (maybe giving birth to the "evil baby" would kill her during childbirth). Add this to the fear "Evil Lex" has of the "evil baby" and that's two strikes against it. So, "evil baby" has to go.

It can't be a clone of CK, because, if Lex still had the blood, he would know that CK was an alien as easily as he found out that Titan wasn't human.

[Baka-Chan]

Whatever happend.

Let's assume Lex has something to do with a MeteorFreakBaby (MFB)..

How could he do such a thing to his own wife oo

[citizenlen]

Yeah, Lana can be blamed for getting mixed up with Lex, but let's not blame the mother for losing a child. I mean she didn't go off drinking and smoking pot all day. She took care of herself and loved the child that was in her, whether it may have been fabricated by Lex or not. How many times have people married someone and it turned out the person is not what they seemed? Lana made a fatal error of falling for Lex ( I truly believe she had genuine feeling for Lex because she sees the good in him, but in her mind, she also knows what Lex is capable of), but I will not blame Lana for what happened to the baby, "partially" or not. She didn't expect Lex is capable of doing that.

[Loislvesclark]

Lana has clearly stated that she loves Lex, so of course she sees the good in him. It will be interesting to see her reaction when she finds out he did something to her and the baby.

"Loves Lex and sees the good in him?" Is that why she was going to call of the wedding to be with Clark before Lionel found and read the note she had wrote about it?

If you remember she said she thought her love for Lex would be enough, but it wasn't. Therefore she said she does love him, she just happens to love Clark more.

True, but me personally, i have no idea what she or anyone else would see in Lex. Lionel said in the past something like, "Once one sees inside your heart, theyll know who you truly are, thats why Lana Lang will never love you son." She may say that she loves him, but theres a far line between love, and ready to die for someone love. She has like a school type crush love that can easily be dismissed.

[Loislvesclark]

regardless, she is now Lex's wife. That isn't easy to dismiss. I am sure it won't last, but for now that's the way it is.

Sure it is. Divorce papers anyone. By seasons end or into next season, she will not want to be with him any longer because of circumstances that we will see. Of course, both parties in question have to sign off the divorce agreement to make it official, this will create tension and more anger between Lex and Lana and Clark for Lex will relize that hes the reason that she wants to call it quits. Im sure either Lex or Lionel will manipulate either Lana or Clark some more into having Lex say "yes" to divorcing Lana.

[Loislvesclark]

Like I said, I'm sure a divorce is going to happen, but for right now she is still Lex's wife.

Unfortunately...

[Atomic girl]

Lana has alot more power right now as a Luthor than she's ever had. Do you think that power will be so easy to give up. She didn't marry Lex for "love" even though she has feelings for him, so why would she now give him up because she doesn't love him. I'm thinking there's more to this storyline yet.

[Hahaveryfunny]

For the love of God! Lana didn't lose the baby, there was no baby to begin with. Get it? Got it? Good.

*calms down*

Sorry, but that was driving me crazy that no one got the truth. Oh, I agree LANA DIVORCE LEX, DIVORCE HIM NOW!

Thats what ive been saying too. The question is? What was in Lana if there was anything or was it all one big lie to get Lana to marry him and when he said that the "baby" had died, have her be depressed and fall into his arms crying, making them fall closer by default?

So you think there was absolutly nothing inside of Lana baby or otherwise?

[tec611]

can someone please explain to me how Lana doesnt seem to give two chucks to the wind about the fact the is pregnant; then when she is told she lost the baby has a complete emotional break about it? suuurrree.

it was heartbreaking to see her reactions to loosing her child; but MAYBE if she acted like she CARED she was pregnant at any other time besides when she nearly looses it (hmm like say, I dunno, when about to run out on the baby's daddy with her ex bf without ever addressing what the two of them will do about the fact she is going to be a mother to another man child and is thus showing Lana puts her own interests above those of her child). Just wish there was some continuity there.

I think prior episodes spent enough time showing that Lana did care for her "baby"....the way she looked at her ultrasound in "Promise" was full of affection...her smile reflected that of love and amazement...very tender. She also demonstrated concern when she fell in "Tresspass" the minute she woke up her biggest concern was that of her "baby"....she even was very hesitant to take any sedative in fear that it will cause the "baby" harm....

I wanted to strangle Lex during those hospital/nursery scenes....it was painful to watch knowing Lex had something to do with Lana's suffering but pretending otherwise...Lex is so EVOL....I like it :D

[HoHumOne]

good post, boingo. Given the time constraints of episodic television (only 40 odd minutes per week after commercials), sometimes character motivations, attitudes, etc., must be communicated in relative shorthand, particularly when the communication of a story element or aspect of character motivation isn't absolutely vital to the momentum of the plot.

A couple scenes here or there, and maybe only very brief moments within those scenes, are often all that can be provided before they have to get back to the business of moving the plot along. The audience is required to fill in the missing pieces, or at least, it is assumed that they will be able to.

That's what I find exasperating about this place sometimes, in terms of the volume of criticisms that are directed against the series. The time that would be required to flesh out all the missing story elements or explain every bit of character motivation to everyone's satisfaction would require a 2 hour weekly episode. :D

So... why was Lex throwing a picture of a baby in the fire? Because to me, that was pretty obviously the writers saying to us directly, "Just in case you're wondering, yes, there was a baby."

[HoHumOne]

I don't have an opinion either way about whether or not there was/is an actual baby, but I don't understand your point, Iritscen.

The baby ultrasound pic could have been gotten from some other woman's baby, and even the whole scene where they were looking at the ultrasound video could have been a piped-in taping of someone else's ultrasound.

[Iritscen]

I see what you're haying, HoHum. I guess I just felt that the writers were definitely saying that was Lana's baby by showing it at the end. That shot was screaming significance, it wasn't just some picture of some other lady's baby or they wouldn't have held on it like that.

Now, I don't pretend to have any special knowledge as to what the writers are doing with this pregnancy plot; I can only opine like everyone else. But to me, there's no ambiguity here. I won't pretend to understand every element of the show, but this one makes perfect sense to me and I am surprised by all the contrived explanations. People are making up fake-pregnancy serums and complicated scheming on Lex's part when there's one very likely answer to all of this:

Lana has done her part in bringing the baby to term (at least in this 'unusual pregnancy'). Lex now has the baby gestating in 33.1 because it's a K-freak. It's that simple. There's still other unknowns, like whose baby it is, of course Oh well. We'll find out sooner or later.

[Kal-alien]

i kinda agree.

like i dont think its in a tank where they can study the embrio, but i think they took it out. maybe it was the tea that lex gave her everyday that gave her symptoms. i dont know. all i know after this epi is that in the next few--which isnt much--Clana is back on track. she knows his secret and she protected him for once. amazing. LMAO. i absolutley love this show. i can read it like a book. and not the comic book that i can read but dont! yeah this show has become quite predictable. but w/e. :)



But She Doesn't know Clark's secret. At least not all of it. With what she does know, she likely thinks he's just another meteor freak. Not an alien. That's a BIG part of the secret to swallow.

From what I can tell the arguments for the "fake-pregnancy" theory are out there (along with all the other numerous possibilities) because some found it rather odd that Lana never showed (not even a bump on her belly) granted this is debatable since every woman is different and there is also uncertainty as to the time frame of Lana's pregnancy but then there is also the issue that if the baby/fetus "was taken out" then wouldn't there be surgery involved/a scar?? I am not a Doctor or expert on the subject but I am under the impression that when a woman "miscarries" it is a natural process (meaning no surgery) but if the fetus was taken out wouldn't Lana know it??

Like I said I am not an expert so I am not sure...

Anyway, I honestly don't have a clue where the writers are going with this pregnancy...at this point anything is possible (especially with a sci-fi show lol)....like you said we just have to wait and see what happens...

[Shelby82]

I might be late on all of this.. but in my opinoin i dont think Lana ever had a baby. Lex definitly just used it to get Lana and now that he has her he had to find a way to "lose" the baby before Lana found out..

[obsessedwithlex]

I think the above post about the fetus being in the lab could be true.

[drake00]

I'm kind of glad she lost the baby, though I certainly don't think it was fake. How do you fake an ultrasound like the one she got? My question is she was what, pregnant for like 18 months. And she didn't show. I mean come on, elephants and whales gestate in less time.

[All about Clark]

^She could have been watching a recording, that would not be that hard to do. Possibly that is why the doctor felt so guilty and wanted to come clean with Lana.

[blinky302]

you just have to hate lana though who marry's someone just to save someone else's life if she wanted she could have just told clark about lionel and clark would have just ripped him in half.

But i feel sorry for her though now she's stuck with lex and there's nothing she can do can do about it, if she runs away either lex or lionel will find her, if she ask's for a divorce lionel will tell her to work it out or else. She's stuck.

[darkkrypton81]

For some reason, I felt absolutely no sympathy for Lana. No offense.

[Iritscen]

*watches Progeny* Okay, I guess I'll be eating some humble pie now, with egg on my face, and all that. Lana's pregnancy was a fake. Here I had a whole notion of Lex using her to raise a K-freak baby, but it was as simple as just getting her to marry him.

[HoHumOne]

At least you came back to admit though, which wins you pts. in my book. :)

Everyone interprets and predicts poorly every now and again. But most people tend to disappear w/o a trace, never willing to face their failures, only to be wrong about something else in some other thread, especially the ones who come out swinging, so confident in the superiority of their assessments. :D

[Bladesworn]

I still hold to my theory about the baby. Lana had a baby, it was taken out of her and put somewhere else and the vitamins she was taking were the hormones that stopped her period.

[Simba_Muffy]

I think prior episodes spent enough time showing that Lana did care for her "baby"....the way she looked at her ultrasound in "Promise" was full of affection...her smile reflected that of love and amazement...very tender.
