What is it? (GAME)

[MBrittan]

bump

[SparkleforSmallville]

Is it the old movie theater, that became the Talon?
No, the Talon was in more than one Episode.

Is it a place?

Is it a clock or watch?

[MBrittan]

You're not confusing Veritas and Levitas, are you X-Ray? Similar, but not the same name.
-M-

[skully]

Hehehe, I maintain the writers got the name wrong in Truth. Veritas, of course, means truth.

Is it time for another clue? Because we are all clearly clueless on this one. :)

[xrayvision]

Another clue:

It was seen moments before a main character discovered something big as far as the episode goes.

[SparkleforSmallville]

By early season, is that 1,2, and 3? I forget.

That clue doesn't help me. So it's not a place?

[MrsK]

Early is season 1 or 2.

[SparkleforSmallville]

Thanks, MrsK. that should help,........ but it doesn't:lol:

[MrsK]

I have absolutely no idea on this one either!

[MBrittan]

I was going to say the clock in Quest before I realized that this was an early season episode...

Wow, I finally stumped MrsK. I thought this one would be obvious.

This thing made quite a bit of noise.
Its owner died.
It had the same name as something else that appeared a few seasons later.
What is it?

Is this a common, everyday item or something like an artifact? Is it Kryptonian?
-M-

[SparkleforSmallville]

I know, i can't get Clock out of my mind:/ It's the noise thing. Maybe we
should figure out which Character died, that isn't seen, and that owned the
thing. or at least which Episode.

Is it seen in Hourglass? People had died in that Episode.

[xrayvision]

Not seen in Hourglass (so don't guess the TV that the guy who gets killed with the piano wire watched the football game on before he died). It is not an artifact but a more common type of object. Even though it's a common type of item, I think this is the only one of its kind that we see in the series.

And as far as the noise goes, it's not loud but frequent. And noise can mean a variety of sounds.

[MrsK]

Wow, I finally stumped MrsK. I thought this one would be obvious.

It wouldn't be the first time! ;)

[SparkleforSmallville]

Is it more than one sound like a radio? Or one sound like a ringing phone?

[xrayvision]

It's a repeating sound with breaks between repeats.

[krewsaider]

I'm dying to know what this is! Would it give it away too much if you said how the owner died?

Hmm, I was going to guess Harry Bollston's record player (Curtis Knox also had one), but I guess not!

[xrayvision]

Not the record player or radio.

It would definitely give it away.

[MrsK]

Maybe Roger Nixon's car remote? Or possibly Ian's pager?

[xrayvision]

Do you mean his remote car alarm on his keychain? Either way it's not it and he's not the owner.

[MrsK]

What about Ian's pager?

[xrayvision]

Not the pager. Remember the clues (especially the one with the name).

[SparkleforSmallville]

Was seen at the High School?

[MrsK]

Is it a proper name we're looking for, then?

[xrayvision]

Was seen at the High School?

No.

[SparkleforSmallville]

I guess so. Partially at best.

Hmm, perhaps. :)

[SparkleforSmallville]

[xrayvision]

Not in the Talon. The pinball machine was actually in the Beanery.

[SparkleforSmallville]

^^I was thinking of the one in Kinetic, in the apartment.

Is it a cel phone?

[xrayvision]

Not a cell phone.

[SparkleforSmallville]

Okay, I'm soo tired, see you Tomorrow.

Btw xray, that's an awesome avi! Is that Kal-El in Lex's plane in Crusade?

[xrayvision]

You're right about my avatar. I had a better one before that I can't use anymore after they reduced the maximum allowable size of avatars.

[krewsaider]

Hey xray, only one more post and you got 10,000!

And I'm still totally stumped on your question. Will this be a "D'Oh, of course" moment when it's cracked?

Probably. I thought it's pretty easy and was going to be solved quickly.

[skully]

Time for a review of the clues:

This thing made quite a bit of noise (not necessarily loud but frequent – repeating with breaks) and is from season 1 or 2 but not seen at SV High
It’s a common item but only appears in the series once
Its owner died (and has a name but we technically didn’t see die)
It was seen moments before a main character discovered something big as far as the episode goes
It had the same name as something else that appeared a few seasons later.
It’s not alive but may be a proper name or even brand name
It's not a place but the same named thing could be
It’s not a siren or a knife/dagger/starblade
It’s not the black ship or the barn
It’s not Lionel’s word scanner
It’s not a clock or a watch, or record player or radio
It’s not a pager or remote, or cell phone or pinball machine.

Darn, this should stand out like a sore thumb.

[nothingwithoutchloe]

Did the owner die in the same episode that the object appeared in?

[SparkleforSmallville]

It's also not seen in the Talon
It's not Kryptonian.

Is it seen in the Luthor Mansion or the Barn?

[xrayvision]

Did the owner die in the same episode that the object appeared in?

No.

[MrsK]

Did the owner appear in the episode the object appeared in? (ie, is the owner a recurring character?)

[krewsaider]

Was there ever a metronome in Smallville? Because that could be it with the repetitive sound with breaks.

[SparkleforSmallville]

Is the sound Music?

[nothingwithoutchloe]

Is it Emily's doll from Accelerate. The one that's in her room when Lana and Clark go to her house and then find the clones in the basement. The doll keeps repeating "you're my best friend". The doll is a Gabby Abby, which is close to Scabby Abby from Facade, but it's not the same name

[MrsK]

Wow, nwc, I think you may have it!
If so, this is the D'oh moment we've all been anticipating. :) I think what threw me off was that we never saw Emily with the doll, even though it was clearly hers.

[SparkleforSmallville]

Omg! i think that's it. the big thing discovered was the Emily clones! What was the same named thing, another Doll? When Emily was grown up and kidnapped Lana?

[MrsK]

I think the same named thing was Abigail Fine. (Scabby Abby/Gabby Abby)

[SparkleforSmallville]

Ohh. Wow, what a good question! Should we give xray a Trophy or something?:)

Actually, nothingwithoutchloe should get a Trophy also! Wonder what made him think of the doll?

That's why I said the owner technically was not in the episode, because the actual owner was the original Emily, who lived in Smallville and died, not the clone Emily who lived in Granville. The stuff in her room was left alone with the exception of having a secret doorway installed for Pete Dinsmore's lab.

----- Added 5 Minutes later -----


I think the same named thing was Abigail Fine. (Scabby Abby/Gabby Abby)

Yeah, that's why I said the name was a partial. I never realized that the nickname portion of the 2 names rhyme until now. I just thought of her as Abby when I came up with the question.

-When it was "destroyed violently", did it take on a new form? (ie the three stones merged to take on a new form, the crystal).
-Is the item Kryptonian?

I guess you could say they were physically held in some way. The item is pretty unique and is not an everyday item. There is another character who has the same item who used it in a different season than the 2 I referred to in my clues.

Bumping to a new page.

Appears in back-to-back seasons owned by the same character, with the breaking away main characters physically held in some way. Another character has a similar item in another season. The item is quite unique.

It is not a Porsche, red-K ring, Jonathan's bike or a key of any sort.

So is the first main character breaking away from a minor character? And can we assume that the owner of the item is not involved in the breaking away scenes?

[xrayvision]

And can we assume that the owner of the item is not involved in the breaking away scenes?

I wouldn't assume that if I were you.

[skully]

Thanks. Is the owner one of the main characters that breaks away?

[xrayvision]

Yes.

[skully]

So it's a unique item owned by a main character that they use to help them break away, and that another main character also uses to break away, and someone else in the series has a similar item. Hmmm.

[SparkleforSmallville]

Are we talking about 3 different main characters?

By main character, is that regular and recurring characters?

Main typically means they appear in the opening credits, Sparkle. So the owner of the item and those characters who break away are either Clark, Lana, Lex, Chloe, Pete, Martha, Jonathan, Lionel, Whitney, Lois, Jason or Kara.

One would assume that given the item is seen in back-to-back seasons, we can rule out Jason and Kara as the owner.

[MrsK]

Don't forget Jimmy! :)

[skully]

Ah yes, Jimmy complies as well.

Can't sleep again MrsK?

[MrsK]

Nope. Wide awake again, so I thought I'd spend a little time at k-site. :)

[skully]

Hmm, I think we may need a clue or two from xray, but I don't suppose he's around at this hour.

Is it Gabby Abby xray?? ;) :D

Are we talking early, middle or late, where we see the item, xray (and do we actually see the item)?

[SparkleforSmallville]

i woke up with this guess:
Is it the Crystal that formed the Fortress of Solitude?

Was seen in S4 Commencement and S5 Arrival
Clark broke away from the Meteor Shower (transported to the Arctic)
Chloe got away from Lex in the Cave (she was also transported)

[xrayvision]

that another main character also uses to break away

It's not necessarily used by another main character, but does help that other main character escape.

Middle & late and we do see the item (even when that other character uses the same type of item).

Not the crystal.

[MrsK]

Is it Chloe's stun gun?

She used it to get away from Lex in Tomb (S5)
She used it to free Clark from Gloria's vines in Wither (S6)

[MBrittan]

I think that's it.

[xrayvision]

She used it to get away from Lex in Tomb (S5)
She used it to free Clark from Gloria's vines in Wither (S6)

And MrsK comes out of nowhere and solves it. Congrats.

The other character to have one was that guy in Action who tazed Lana.

[skully]

Yeah, and Ben Meyers has one in Action which he stuns Lana with.

[MrsK]

Knowing which seasons to concentrate on was a HUGE help! :)

Working on a new question...

[skully]

The simplest of all clues can often be a big help!! :)

[SparkleforSmallville]

Good job, MrsK!:)

[skully]

Lordy, MrsK must be digging up a doozy!!! :)

[xrayvision]

I wonder if the question will be about Dr. Bethany's laptop (causing the Dr. Bethany guesses to spread to this thread).

[skully]

Hehehe, I would not put it beyond MrsK. She often goes the "Quote from the same episode as the last quote" trick in the "Who said it?" thread. :)

[MBrittan]

I wonder if the question will be about Dr. Bethany's laptop (causing the Dr. Bethany guesses to spread to this thread).

lol XRay. Dr Bethany has infected Kryptonsite! :rotfl:
-M-

[xrayvision]

The funny thing is, I just finished watching Freak on the S6 DVD set that I recently started watching after buying it a year ago.

I never liked how that ray deflected off Clark's body and hit Bethany. His body should have absorbed it without hurting him. But I guess if that didn't kill him, Lex certainly would have.

By the way Mark, is your avatar of the character who Tim Drake fights in Asia just after he becomes Robin III? Was his name King Snake (IIRC)? I have that comic and it looks exactly like him. I remember Lady Shiva was in it as well.

[MrsK]

Sorry for the delay! I was not cooking up a tough question, just got sidetracked with stuff at home.

Let's see...

-It was in the possession of 4 main characters in a single episode, none of whom was the item's original owner
-It helped a main character survive a dangerous encounter
-It contained something valuable
(and it has nothing to do with Dr. Bethany!)
What is it?

[xrayvision]

It actually does sound like Bethany's laptop.

It was in Clark's, Chloe's, Jimmy's, and in a way Lex's possession.
It helped Chloe find out about the meteor freaks being killed off one at a time.
It had valuable info about Lex & 33.1.

[MBrittan]

Yep, that's him. King Snake (AKA Sir Edmund Dorrance). My favorite comic book villain of all time. I'm impressed you recognized him. You certainly have to be a die-hard comic book reader to know who he is.

The air stone? Was originally owned by an unknown Kryptonian. Was in the posession of Clark, Lana, Isobelle, and Jason. It helped Lana survive a dangerous encounter with Mrs. Teague. And it contains something VERY valuable! The sum of Kryptonian knowledge!
-M-

[skully]

Sorry for the delay! I was not cooking up a tough question, just got sidetracked with stuff at home.Can't wait for the offspring to get their licence, ay MrsK? ;) :D

[MrsK]

He's got 6 months to go... I'm torn between being thrilled at some relief in the chauffeur department and worrying about him being out on the roads on his own! :)

Actually, though, tonight was something else. School starts here on Monday, and we are busy trying to get everything and everybody ready.

Getting back to the matter at hand...

It is NOT Dr. Bethany's laptop. It is also not the stone; that does kind of fit, but Isobel isn't a main character. Good guess, though. :)

[xrayvision]

I think it could be something in Transference (maybe the water stone). I know Clark, Lionel, and Lex and maybe even Chloe had it in Commencement.

[MrsK]

It isn't one of the stones. The item appeared in only one episode.

[skully]

Is this a common item or unique? Is it too early to ask which part of the series?

[MrsK]

I can't remember seeing anything like it on Smallville, but generally the item is not particularly unique. Late season.

[skully]

I was just whizzing through the late S7 episodes looking for your "Who said it?" and I note Jimmy used a tazer in Sleeper (as did Agent Webber's henchmen on Chloe). I wonder if it was Choe's as mentioned in the "What is it?" that you solved MrsK?? :)

Anyway, back to the question. Thanks for the clues.

----- Added 39 Minutes later -----

OK, how about Lillian Luthor's silver gardenia inscribed cigarette case in Noir?

It was handled by Lana (presumably, as it was in her purse), Lois and Lionel, as well as Jimmy in his dream
It saved Jimmy by taking the impact of Lana's bullet at the DP at the end of his dream
It contained the flash drive of Lex and Senator Burke's conversation about Project Ares.

It fits. Ironically, that cigarette case was my guess to an earlier "What is it?"
-M-

[skully]

I have a new one ready to go if I am correct and MrsK confirms.

[MrsK]

Yes, it is the cigarette case. Good job, skully!

[skully]

OK, sorry, had to go out from the office for much of the day.

This item led to a number of items owned by a guest being damaged
It was the property of one main character who relinquished it but got it back before the end of the episode
It raised suspicions about another main character

What is it?

[minerva73]

The chisel from Trespass?
Doesn't fit the first clue...

[skully]

Sorry m73, I didn't expect anyone around at this hour.

I looked at my own clues and thought I bet the first guess is the chisel.

It's not the chisel.

[minerva73]

Don't worry about it, skully.

The original vial of Clark's blood from Phoenix?
Or are you being sneaky and is it the cigarette case from Noir?

[skully]

Not the vial of Clark's blood nor the cigarette case, although they both fit 2 of the clues, but not the one about the owner getting the item back by the end of the episode in which it leads to damage to a guest's property.

[MrsK]

How about the bullet Lana fired at Dr. Bethany (have to get him in here somewhere!) in Freak?

Broke the glass and damaged at least one item in Tobias's china cabinet
Lana got it back by the end of the episode
It raised questions in her mind about Clark - she suspected he had deflected it

Very good MrsK. I thought the Dr Bethany link was worth continuing!!!

You're up.

[MrsK]

That was a good one, skully. Dr Bethany does appear to be the glue that holds this thread together! :D

Here's mine:

It was a gift from a parent to his/her child
It was lost and then returned to its owner
A guest character had a very similar item in an earlier season.
What is it?

[skully]

Do we see the item or only hear about it?

[MrsK]

We see it.

[skully]

Morning MrsK. And can we break the linking theme? This has nothing to do with Dr Bethany? :)

[MrsK]

Nothing to do with Dr Bethany! :)

[MBrittan]

bump

[skully]

Was it the toy truck belonging to the little boy that Clark saved from the meteor in Commencement? Not sure it fits completely.

[MrsK]

No, not the truck. Something from a late season.

[minerva73]

Kara's crystal?

-Zor-El gave it to her in Lara during the flashback.
-She lost it, but found it again.
-Lana's necklace is similar to that except much smaller.

[MrsK]

It is not anything Kryptonian, so not Kara's crystal.

I'm leaving town early tomorrow and will likely not be around much, if at all, for 4 days, so let's see if some more clues help get this knocked out today...

It is owned by a one-time guest character, lost for a short period of time, and returned by a main character

The guest with a similar item was also a one-episode character, and he was in a in a middle season.

[skully]

How about Javier's necklace that his Mom gave him to keep him safe in Subterranean. He wished he had given it to Francisco to keep him safe, then tore it off and threw it away in despair. Clark then found it on the ground after his underground rumble with Jed McNally and returned it to Javier.

[MrsK]

You got it! Good job.

[skully]

Remind me MrsK, who had a similar pendant/necklace in the middle season? It's getting late here and the brain is tiring. :)

----- Added 16 Minutes later -----

This item is a weapon
Two separate versions of it are used unsuccessfully by a main character and a one-episode guest
In one instance the weapon was attempted to be used against a meteor-infected person and the other against a non-meteor infected person.

What is it?

----- Added 23 Minutes later -----

-M-

[skully]

Uncle Nicholas had his St. Christopher medallion in Slumber.Of course. Apologies, it was late. I was awake but my brain wasn't. :)

So no guesses yet on my latest item?

[MBrittan]

Is it a hand-held weapon, like a gun or knife? Or is it a larger scale weapon (like the missile in Hidden)?
-M-

[skully]

It's a hand-held weapon, but not a gun or a knife.

[MBrittan]

It's a hand-held weapon, but not a gun or a knife.

Is it a lethal weapon? Or a non lethal weapon, like a taser? Is it Kryptonian, or human-made?
-M-

[skully]

If successfully used it could be lethal, but generally it inflicts pain. It's not a taser, it's not Kryptonian and it is human-made.

----- Added 19 Minutes later -----

Given that the lateral thinking MrsK is outta town and the equally devious xray has been kidnapped by the reincarnated Dr Bethany, another clue perhaps (no offence intended to all the other trivia fans).

The first instance we see the weapon is in a middle season episode, and the 2nd instance is in a late season episode.

[skully]

This item is a weapon (handheld, but not a gun, knife or taser) used to inflict pain
Two separate versions of it are used unsuccessfully by a main character and a one-episode guest
In one instance the weapon was attempted to be used against a meteor-infected person in a middle season epi and the other against a non-meteor infected person in a late season epi.

What is it?

Bueller? Bueller? Anyone?

[MBrittan]

The pencil Chloe's co-worker at the Planet was killed with? lol
-M-

[skully]

Not the pencil Mark, but I like the lateral thinking. These similar weapons (identical except for size - one was slightly bigger than the other) did not kill the people they were used against.

[nothingwithoutchloe]

Nail gun Lana used on one of the twins in Mortal

[skully]

Not the nail gun but you have one of the seasons this "weapon" was used in. On each occasion the weapon was used it did not prove to be as successful as hoped by the user. The similar weapons were used in back-to-back seasons.

[minerva73]

So nwc's nail gun answer also applies to the nail gun that Linda Lake used in Hydro?

Thinking of "weapons" used in Season 6. Watched a few episodes recently.

----- Added 3 Minutes later -----

Was Lana the main character who used this "weapon"?

If you can't answer that b/c it'll give it away, then did the main character that used the weapon use it to try to escape from someone who was chasing them? (kind of like when Lana hits people with glass or something?)

[skully]

Lana did not use the weapon in either instance but she was involved in one of the two instances.

And yes, the main character who used the weapon did use it to try to "escape".

Perhaps that may give it away but this one has been going a while.

There is a clue that I can give that may give it away. See how we go.

[xrayvision]

I was thinking of the stun gun used against Lex in Asylum, but I don't think that's it.

What about the telescopic nightstick that Lex grabbed from the Belle Reve orderly in Asylum and used against the other orderly?

[skully]

Hehehe, the prodigal son returns. Some killer papers to finish, man?

Not a stun gun or the night stick.

[skully]

Still nobody? The main star that used the "weapon" was a female (not Lana) and the one-episode guest was male.

Need to think a little laterally. This is not a weapon in the conventional sense - it is not used for stabbing, shooting or inflicting pain on contact (although it would hurt if contacted).

[minerva73]

I'm trying to think of "weapons" that were used to try to inflict pain on someone, but the user wasn't effective in doing that...

And just to check again: Are the two seasons that the item is seen in from Seasons 5 and 6?

Maybe it's the knife that Lois stole from the guard in Phantom? Perhaps it's supposed to be a butcher knife, but he decided to use it to attack Lois. Lois Lane tried to use it on the guard in their little fight, but she failed and ended up getting stabbed herself IIRC.

[Kensei]

Was it the crystal Jor-El gave to Raya?

Lois Lane tried to use it on the guard in their little fight, but she failed and ended up getting stabbed herself IIRC.Yes, the items are seen in an S5 epi and an S6 epi. The weapon was ineffective on both occasions (although in the second instance the item may have had some effect but did not achieve what the user was trying to do) it was used (once v meteor-infected person and once v non-meteor infected person) but in "normal" circumstances would inflict great pain. It's not a knife.


Was it the crystal Jor-El gave to Raya?Not the House of El crystal.

Think "defence".

[xrayvision]

Bumping the question:

This item is a weapon (handheld, but not a gun of any sort, knife, taser, pencil, stun gun, nightstick, crystal or mace) used for defence and to inflict pain
Two separate versions (different sizes but still handheld) of it are used unsuccessfully by a female main character (not Lana) and a one-episode male guest (although some pain may have been inflicted in this instance but did not achieve the user's objective)

Not a fencing sword. Man, I'm amazed this has lasted so long. I can't think of anymore clues without completely giving it away.

Maybe this one. The 2nd person this item was used on (in S6) was affected by something by was not meteor-infected.

Time for you guys to ask the questions.

[nothingwithoutchloe]

Is it a cross?

[skully]

Why yes it is, nwc!!!

Chloe tried to defend herself with a crucifix from vampire Lana in Thirst, who just laughed and said "Oh sweetie...this isn't a movie", and the priest used a larger version to try to expel the demon (the wraith) from the old man at the beginning of Phantom.

Well done, you're up.

[nothingwithoutchloe]

Nice one skully, ok how about this one

this item was a gift
it was destroyed once
it was made, not purchased

Kara's blue crystal?

It was a gift from Zor-El
It was destroyed at the FoS in Blue
Zor-El created it with Lara's DNA inside.

Was created after a certain event in a middle season.
Only appeared in one episode.
Was used to "protect" a main character.

What is it?

The Crystal of Knowledge?

-Created when Clark put the three Stones of Power together
-Only truly appeared in Commencement
-In a way, it was used to protect Clark because it built the Fortress which could save Clark (if needed)

[s3dsmv]

no idea, but still curious

[krewsaider]

Not the crystal of knowledge.

[minerva73]

The Krypto-Container from Wrath?

-Lex created it to contain the remains of Brainiac after what happened in S5
-Appeared only in Wrath until it broke
-Was used to protect Clark from Lana's fit of maniacal rage in LuthorCorp labs

[xrayvision]

If minerva73 didn't get it, then is it the barrier in the cave wall that blocked Lionel from getting the key in Legacy?
