Too many story lines jammed into this episode. far too many.

Clark and Lana happy ever after
Lana and stolen money
Lana going psycho on Lex
Lex....good or bad?
Meteor freak experiments...and cover up
Chloe being a meteror freak
Chloe and Jimmy
Chloe and jimmy breaking up
Jimmy jealously over clark
Chloe's family history of mental illness
Knox and immortality
Knox and wife
Martial Manhunter and kara
Zor el versus Jor el
Kara and Clark...family but feuding
Kara and Jimmy

toooooooooooo many things jammed into this episode. it felt disjointed.

seems like they are advancing every storyline except clark....don't want him to grow up too soon.

Yeah, sometimes I wonder if TPTB respect the legend of Superman.

I don't agree. I thought the episode and storylines were just fine. A lot of the things you mentioned were overlaping eachother.

I thought that too. I was pretty lost. And in the end, every single one of them was such a downer.

I don't understand why there wasn't any explanation on how Knox came up with the cure, or what exactly the cure is.

There never was any cure. It was just a front so he could harvest organs effected by kryptonite.

It was a good episode. There were many plotlines but some of those are probably going to get explained as the season goes on.

This was a good and one of the best episodes because something good was going on all the time. When it wasn't the good acting, it was meaningful scenes, emotions, development, relationships, mystery and tension. Everything left a good impression on me.

Chloe being a meteor freak
Chloe and Jimmy
Chloe and jimmy breaking up
Jimmy jealously over clark
Kara and Jimmy

I think all these things are one giant storyline, all intertwined, not a bunch of separate, disjointed issues.

Agree. But that's not hard vs 'Top model' crap. Even 'Lexmas' was better then last weeks'.

Are you sure? I thought the cure was what got Lex's interest in him. I thought he "cured" them by disabling the part of their brain that is able to control and use the freak power.

I'm sure that's why Lex and Chloe were interested in Knox, but clearly he lied to them.

That bugged me too.Who was he exactly?We know that he was immortal.How?Where did he came from?Some many questions unanswered.At least,they left the door openned for him to come back.Let's hope some explanations will be reveal then.

I think TPTB were banking on us being so happy Dean Cain was a guest star, we'd completely ignore all the unanswered questions.

They have never given us credit at all. And call us dumb for not liking Lana.

This episode had 3 problems which bothered me a lot. Clark hasn't learned jack and trusts people way too soon. Clark is still speeding into the Planet in full view of everyone which is stupid. Is everyone who works there blind? Why is Chloe acting like her ability interferes with her life? So big deal she heals people and then gets knocked out. It's as if she thinks she's on par with Clark's abilities. Unless she uses her ability no one has a clue she's different. It's just more bad writing.
