Chloe's Power

[Chlollie]

Talk about Chloe's power.

[MBrittan]

Talk about Chloe's power.

she can heal people. done.

[oldblackmagick]

^^^you'd think but apparently you'd be wrong...

[superspider02]

Yea her powers are a changing this year, i cant wait to see what they do with her now.

[shy175223]

According to Kristian, it has something to do with her hacking skills, mainly her IQ, I'm serious.

[superspider02]

And that rumor it might be a killing power too.

[roccanater]

"Killing Power", I wish. That would be SWEEEEEET!!!!!!!

[wildenchantress_kt]

That would be SWEAT!!!!!!!

LOL :rotfl: I think you mean it would be SWEET. Unless her sweat glands give off a power.

[roccanater]

^

Yeah, typo. Thanks

[kkjdt]

Yeah I like her having the healing power. I think it would be nice if she got some other super power...... where she could toss people around....but I guess brain power is ok.... not what I was hoping for and was really hoping she was going to keep her healing ability!

[Kel-El09]

I'm pretty sad too! As excited as I am that she gets a new power, I wish she could still keep the healing one also. Remember in that interview with the producers...they say that she'll realize that she doesn't have that power anymore, just when she needs them the most (in the premiere). I think it's when she's leaning over a shot Clark. It will be sad if she's willing to risk her life to save him, and it won't work. Maybe that's one of the sweet Chlark scenes in the premiere they were talking about.

Ya I'm actually really sad her healing power is gone. I was excited to see her have new powers but I was counting on her keeping her healing power and I am actually really sad it's gone cause I loved her have that power even if it was nerve racking whenever she used it! :\ Plus I wanted her to be able to save Clark with it. It was something speculated and thought about ever since she got the power and I thought it would be cool to actually see it! Or at least see if she could heal him! :confused:

Oh well, it's the thought that counts and just the fact that she tries to use it on Clark is enough for me! :o

And ya that probably is the sweet Chlark moment they're talking about! I just hope it's not the only one!

[oldblackmagick]

^^^I don't think the power to heal is gone but i think it is just on the fritz or something...or maybe since she has two powers she can only use one at a time and since she can't control the new one she can't access the other??? i don't think its gone forever tho.

[Smallville6]

I'm really excited to see what her new powers are! :D:D:D:D
But I think she'll still have her healing powers too.

[go_clo]

Ya thats good point. It did come to mind that maybe after being experimented on for a month, she may have a harder time with it but I didn't think about how having 2 powers would make it harder to control each one, it did take her a little while to figure out how to use her healing powers on her own! Possibly after some time, she'll be able to use both! :D What a sucky time to not be able to use them though! :\

[chlo-el]

I thinkher healing powerwill just be more evolved this year. where she can use it with out dying. And from Artic I was thinking she had something to do w/ energy. she could take energy away and she could give energy back. That could be how she heals people by giving them energy.

[MBrittan]

Yea her powers are a changing this year, i cant wait to see what they do with her now.

If we don't know what it is, how can we discuss it? You guys are jumping the gun. Slow down. Relax.

[A_Chloe.S._Fan]

And that rumor it might be a killing power too.
Yeah, I heard that 2. I hope it's kinda like Rogue's power from X-Men, except that Chloe can actually touch stuff.

[Kel-El09]

Do we for sure find out what her powers are in the premiere?

[go_clo]

Do we for sure find out what her powers are in the premiere?
I think so, I'm not sure though.

[avisray1992]

It really sucks that she doesn't have her healing power anymore because I liked Chloe with that power, but I think her new power (super smartness/intelligence/???) suits her too. I'm thinking that it came with being infected by Brainiac and her healing power doing something to him... Maybe when that happened, her healing power was substituted for her super smart power.

[AndiGirl]

Yep....she's super smart. Scary smart really.....
I dont know if her healing powers are gone...or if it had something to do with the shot she was given??

I love that she is super smart....but I have to admitt her healing powers seem more useful. Who knows....maybe she'll have both?

[Aries83]

I kind of lost focus when the man walked in and said...something like "I didn't know you had a terminal IQ?" I could be wrong, that's what I thought I heard. I don't think her healing power is gone...Something's happening to her, and it better be good.

[A_Chloe.S._Fan]

So she has super-intelligance! Cool!

[Poyntz]

I'm thinking maybe her healing didn't work because Clark Technically isnt Human even if he lost his powers. Or maybe it was that shot she was given.

[Kel-El09]

Y'all don't think that's her only power do you?? I mean the whole super brain thing is very cool...but to go from being able to heal people, even from the dead...to having a ginormous IQ is kind of a letdown.

[AndiGirl]

Y'all don't think that's her only power do you?? I mean the whole super brain thing is very cool...but to go from being able to heal people, even from the dead...to having a ginormous IQ is kind of a letdown.

I hope not!
Its really cool that she can unscramble things faster then any known computer...but healing people, come on...no competition! :\

I hope it's just clark....for some weird reason? Maybe Jor-el did something??:confused:
when in doubt...blame Jor-el! :lol:

[Minela]

Well, she obviously got that new thing form attacking Braniac. So, I think it's safe to assume she'll be getting some of his powers. Not exactly the same, but a fraction of him is now in her. I'm very excited about this. I think it's the first time I've been excited about Chloe's story line.

[avisray1992]

I'm thinking maybe her healing didn't work because Clark Technically isnt Human even if he lost his powers. Or maybe it was that shot she was given.

I hope that's why. The thought crossed my mind when watching her sitting there with him on her lap trying to heal him and nothing was working.

That would be freakin' awesome!

[CountryGirl84]

Its kind of funny, I remember before we knew what her first power was I was in a speculation thread about it and one of the theories going was that it would be some kind of super intelligence/super computer hacking skills and such. Just thought that was neat :)

[roccanater]

Crazy Brainiac-like Chloe!

[haydenclaireheroes]

Yeah, I heard that 2. I hope it's kinda like Rogue's power from X-Men, except that Chloe can actually touch stuff.


that is what i think!!

i said the samething when i was watching it to my mom!

[Shadowlord367]

I just think Chloe's power is fitting for her character.

Its one of the only meteor powers thus far on the series that isn't destructive, and it matches her persona in that she is totally loving, giving and selfless.

Her new one, however is just bizarre.

----- Added 14 Seconds later -----

I still don't know why she didn't just make up the last three digits, but oh well.

[Chlollie]

wow super smart. I still think she can heal.

[Harrison_Bergeron]

She'll be able to talk to computers by the end of the season, but she'll be in a wheelchair.

[sweetsam_7]

Her new ability is no doubt the end result of her interaction with Brainiac. What is intriguing is the way she acquired it, which brings up many possibilities. We all know that she was already smart. So did that just get enhanced or is it simply because of her survival skills that she sucks out powers from people ? Which means she could acquire other powers ? Regarding her healing ability I think it works only on human beings.

[AndyBear1980]

I'm very interested to see where this goes.

[PepsiMax]

Does anybody else think there's something more to this? It might be Braniac that's the cause of this, but it might also be her. I can't shake that scene with Braniac and her. Why would he say a line like 'What the hell are you?' He would obviously know about Meteor Freaks already...:confused:

But still... her new power is awesome!! :eek:

[haywchr35]

i tend to look at from a few different view-point's a quess. One possible is that she has both power's and it come's with a huge draw-back's with both power's.

CS could still have her ability to heal "people" being the key word. As for healing alien's from another planet not so much!! (the whole human vs. non-human factor).

Her being computer smart could be a new power, but I don't think it's her exact power...or evolution of a power.

It could be a direct result of CS and James Masters (Brianiac) being linked toward the end of season 7. (The infamous line ....what are you (JM to CS) in season 7)

They quite possible swaped power's(in small degree and not totally) as direct result of the link, leaving her with the power to compute at speed of "computer" but not being able to heal anyone and leaving JM character the power to heal himself after clark throw's him into a genarator (even thou in the comic's he's with out limit's with the amount of time's he regenerate's himself).

Or this new gift is just a simple pretext to what eventually lead's to CS end (death) on the show and season 7 part meant very little to thease newly aquired power's.

I could be way off-based on all account's but I can't believe some of the season 7 un-resolved issue will not be (like CS and Brainiac scene) expanded on a little in season 8.

[skully]

I kind of lost focus when the man walked in and said...something like "I didn't know you had a terminal IQ?" I could be wrong, that's what I thought I heard. I don't think her healing power is gone...Something's happening to her, and it better be good.Reagan said to the strapped-in Chloe "I knew you had a healing power but a turbo IQ...well...that was a pleasant surprise".

[Estro-gen X]

She'll be able to talk to computers by the end of the season, but she'll be in a wheelchair.

I think she'll be depowered by christmas.
I'm just so excited Smallville has introduced the technology that will lead to brainiac 5.

[zitro]

:confused:didnt Lex have something similar in Justice Leauge Unlimited? He was super smart cos he was link to braniac. does this mean that chloe is potentially a baddie by the end of season 8 ???

[Jaderoyale]

I think the new power suits Chloe EXTREMLEY well.

[chlark-x]

when she went to heal clark, her healing powers didnt work and now she has that fast reading thing maybe she is changing power, meh we will see what happens

[Yasise]

I'm thinking maybe her healing didn't work because Clark Technically isnt Human even if he lost his powers. Or maybe it was that shot she was given.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking, too. I guess her healing power doesn't work on Clark, because that would make her in some way more powerful than Clark. And I guess no human is supposed to be more powerful than Superman, at least not in this kind of life saving thing.
I think Chloe can only heal humans and Clark isn't human, as we all know ;)


Well, she obviously got that new thing form attacking Braniac. So, I think it's safe to assume she'll be getting some of his powers. Not exactly the same, but a fraction of him is now in her. I'm very excited about this. I think it's the first time I've been excited about Chloe's story line.

Yes, I think you're right. The encounter with Brainiac must have left her with that power, because Brainiac looked even more worn out after he's tried to destroy Chloe in her apartment. Maybe he has lost some of his brain powers to Chloe there, who knows?


I think the new power suits Chloe EXTREMLEY well.

Yeah, it's nice, but I hope, it won't change her character in the process and she'll become a bad Chloe....?

[Estro-gen X]

And I guess no human is supposed to be more powerful than Superman, at least not in this kind of life saving thing.

Captain Marvel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captain_Marvel_(DC_Comics)) is at least supeman's equal and has the nickname 'World's mightiest mortal'

[Yasise]

Really? Sorry, but I don't know everything and everybody from the superman mythology.

But again, a mortal or human being can't be an equal to superman, IMO.

[Timester]

Chloiac, the copy of what happened with Lexiac on JLU. Brainiac is inside Chloe, no one can tell me the opposite. Her new "power" is nothing more than Brainiac.

This is a very intriging story.

[Yasise]

................. Brainiac is inside Chloe, no one can tell me the opposite. Her new "power" is nothing more than Brainiac................

wow, I hope not, but you've a point there. It might be true. Really interesting....

O.k. I see, as Superman is also "God like among humans" this kid may really be his equal. Thanks for the info :)

[LOONEY]

I think some Brainiac was left over after their encounter?

[unex||den||adel]

u know wht, after watching odyssey few times, i just noticed!

if u take a close look, theres the scene when chloe review all the newspaper on the computer, when it flip soo fast , n she asked herself 'whats happening to me>???'

after a few second, she stood, n looks like hearing something, close the laptop, n went outside..at the time, JImmy didnt show up yet, but she hear Jimmy footstep even b4 he show up. it was weird, but i started to think her power is even more greater than we think. She count Jimmy steps..? Its getting more interesting now, more thn ever to know Chloe's new power.

Another sign tht i notice is Chloe is more understanding now.Just look at the Chimmy scene, she loosen up, listen to him n somehow understanding him sooo well, it almost cost me a tears by just looking at them.I m not Chimmy fan, btw. Myb empathy power tht chloe have, now , she cud b more understandable to people around her.

I also love the scene chlark , when she pamper clark n say 'its okay, clark, i can handle it'...the whispering voice, really work for me, cost me tears as well(damn, i nvr cry watching smv, ths is the 1st time!!).

The scene really show how much chloe will sacrifice 4 clark, as much as he will do to her. I never see any character in tv cud b like this, they r soo fit 4 each other, my heart melllow watching the chlark 'valentines' scene.

all i can say is, chloe is more grace, understanding this season, more reason to like her.

[kkjdt]

You know I was so disappointed in the fact that Clark never got to see that when chloe healed people it physically hurt her not only made her die... I would of loved her to be able to heal him... but than how could he of gotten his powers back...... I understand why the writers went the way they did I guess but I really would of liked it better if she could of healed him....I liked her healing power not sure how I feel about the new power wonder how they are going to use her......I hope they don't make her turn dark or something I like having her as a good role model

[Yasise]

I think some Brainiac was left over after their encounter?

Yep, in the "Arctic" scene in Chloe's apartment, where Brainiac tried to "kill" her but he failed and said "What the hell are you?"

Good catch I wonder if her powers or more than just being smart... time will tell.....
I absolutely loved how she was willing to sacrific everything for Clark. :)

yeah, I was wondering about that, too.

[Kardiac]

I think it goes back further than Brainiac into last season. She healed Lex while he was hooked up to the neural-interface machine in "Fracture". It was only after this that she had her weird connection to Brainiac.

They've inferred in the past that Lex's meteor exposure may have done more than just make him bald (he can't remember having "ever been sick"), so maybe the effects of his low-level immunity power, Chloe's healing power, and the neural-interface machine opened her up to being receptive to Brainiac's computerized brain. Keep in mind, also, that while Chloe was healing Lex, he and Clark's brainwaves were "in sync", which had apparently never happened before.

Any or all of these things could have contributed to Chloe's current state.

[WickedJenn]

I'm thinking that LuthorCorp will continue to try to use Chloe as a decoder, like they did with the JL's cell phone numbers. I feel though, that there'll be more to it than that, and perhaps she won't just be vulernable to LuthorCorp, either.

[lovinredkclark]

Its one of the only meteor powers thus far on the series that isn't destructive, and it matches her persona in that she is totally loving, giving and selfless.

I thought she would have changed the last 3 digits as well. She knew it was Ollies number, she should have lied.

[kiariclois]

Hmm... I'm really curious about Chloe's power. Apparently, she couldn't heal Clark; is it because he's an alien that she can't heal him, or did she develop new power again.

Ya know, the whole looking through different pages so fast really reminds me of Dean Cain's Clark in Lois and Clark: The New Adventure of Superman. He can read from one page to another like what Chloe did when she read that newspaper online.

I don't think I'll like where this storyline is heading, but it's too soon to tell.

[lovinredkclark]

if Chloe's taken on some of Brainiac's power, she would not have the ablility to heal. Brainiac was the super intelligence of the planet, a machine, he wouldn't know how to heal, so therefore that wouldn't have been passed on to Chloe.

[lovinredkclark]

bump

[kiariclois]

but did she still have the healing power? I'm so confused with Chloe's situation...

[haydenclaireheroes]

I'm very interested to see where this goes.


totally!!

[VEGAS AARON]

Well if you go back to the season finale of last season where brainiac goes to chloe and trys to do the same thing to chloe what he did to lana but chloe's healing powers completely drains brainiac instead. Chloe's healing power has that negative effect where she gets the cuts and if its really bad she dies but comes back after a while. I think while she was healing herself when braniac attacked her, instead of her getting the negative effect from her power, her power instead took brainiacs 12th level intelligents.

[clarkbunny]

I don't think this means that Chloe doesn't have the power to heal any more - it might just mean she doesn't have the power to heal Kryptonians i.e., Clark.

[getkuhl]

i think Chloe's power is just a variation of empathy. she is able to send her life force to others through touch. but i think she also taps into the person she is healing in kind if an empathic way. she will probably be able to tap in and drain strength and life force in the same way. the only reason she wasn't able to heal Clark is because it was beyond her means as a human to heal a kryptonian. when she was being attacked by Brainiac i think he forced open that empathic link and as a natural defense she drained some of life force, weakening him, and also received her higher brain power from him. but it is clear from her failed attempt to escape that brain power is all she received from Brainiac.

[shy175223]

except he didn't his powers until toward the end of the episode. He was human

[getkuhl]

except he didn't his powers until toward the end of the episode. He was human

clark can never be human, he was basically just a battery that had been completely drained. much like the draining that happens when he is exposed to kryptonite. this time though he was completely empty so he needed direct sunlight with no atmospheric interference, which is where MM comes into play. but clark can never be human, he is a kryptonian, DNA and all...
that is like saying that a cheetah that broke its legs and cant run anymore isnt a cheetah....

I agree. I never understood when Clark, TPTB, or whoever say that Clark was stripped of his powers or became human. He is physiologically Kryptonian, a humanoid with superior strength, speed, hearing, vision, breath, as compared to human beings, and with the ability to shoot fire from his eyes and fly (at some point).

Green Kryptonite exposure is like a toxin, poison, or disease weakening him, like a human with an allergic reaction or a disease. Other forms of kryptonite act as drugs/chemicals would on humans, altering his brain chemistry (red and silver). Blue kryptonite takes his power away, so I look at that like him being extremely weakened to the point that he has normal human strength. That is also how I look at the times when he has "lost his powers" - some outside force has had the magic ability to drain his batteries.

or myb, it cud b mixed up, n she have both powers, or even more powers , who knows!

All i can say is..chloe is officially screwed up now more thn ever.

To accepting tht u r meteor freak is freaking enuf, to know tht u r now taking half of the abilities of mean maniac machine, is another thing.

We can see she freakin' out when she says ' whts happening to me ??'

poor chloe...:(

Yep, thats why it's called "Chloe's powers."

i know how much i love seeing chloe's storyline this season, with all the powers n stuff, but average meteor infected ppl usually hv only 1 ability .

Named several meteor freak:-

*The matklpatklklklkl guy( er..the bookie russian guy tht make chloe 'kiss' him, i know i spell it wrong, somehow it sound like tht, haha:lol:)---> he can only make ppl do wt he told them to do)
*Bart ----> run as fast as flash light.
*aquaman---> u know him well, i guess...
*Linda Lake ----> the water lady

as far as i remember, all meteor infected only hv 1 ability, why chloe different thn other..? i mean, she is human, rrrright..?

[AndiGirl]

I dont think she is supposed to have more then one....I think Brainiac kind of messed her up. ;)

[go_clo]

I dont think she is supposed to have more then one....I think Brainiac kind of messed her up. ;)
Agreed. I think she is actually just naturally smart but what Brainiac did to her mixed with what her power did to her, it messed things up and made her smarter then she is suppost to be.

I do think the brains she had all these years are pure Chloe, Brainiac just added to it. ;)

[The Red Aaron]

my thoughts from another thread.

Chloe is now Smallville's rouge, just that she can control her power and touch people. Think about it. Brainiac attacked her and now she has super intelligence. If you read the other spoilers it says she somehow looses her memory and Clark has Jorell restore (most of) it. But why does she loose her memory? I think she somehow takes whatever power doomsday has. Doesn't doomsday black out a lot in the show and can't remember his murders? If chloe uses her power on him at that moment, I could see how she could loose her memory, and gain any other abilities he has. I miss her healing power but it was very much a cop out.

OMFG!!! tht cud be true! speculation, speculation...

myb doomsday try to atck her , n she just protecting herself, n accidentally do the same she did with brainiac to doomsday. Kinda logic... WOW, im xcited again!

[ginnyfan]

Ug. I don't know how I feel about Chloe soaking up Brainiac's powers. Is he even organic? Did he invade her body? I'm just... meh.

[pjack]

I don't think she can heal Kryptonians. She is infected with Kryptonite so that is lethal to Kryptonians. Makes sense it won't work. I actually hope its gone because that power sucked and she has always been super smart with computers back in the days of the torch, so why not play on that after the Brainiac attack. Its cool to me.

First off, I am really bummed that she lost her healing power. I really hope its not gone for good, because that power was really awesome and fit her well. If they wanted her to have a super brain, that should of been her original power and not just adjust her power(s) to whatever storyline you are writing.


Does anybody else think there's something more to this? It might be Braniac that's the cause of this, but it might also be her. I can't shake that scene with Braniac and her. Why would he say a line like 'What the hell are you?' He would obviously know about Meteor Freaks already...:confused:

But still... her new power is awesome!! :eek:

I had the same exact thought. Maybe Chloe isn't just a Meteor Freak. I thought the writers were trying to open a door for her because that is a very strong line with connotations. And for Brainiac to say "What the hell are you?" that has to hold some meaning. Granted she did affect him to the point where he was "drained" and he was probably like WTH happened...

It just makes me wonder what Chloe's power truely was. If she only had the ability to heal others/resurrect herself why was she able to have to opposite affect on Brainiac? Now she has taken a part of him (or is he still in her head on some level?).

I am too confused on her power....I just hope that she displays some chloe awesomeness this seaso.

Her new power was so frickin awesome!! I avoided all spoilers for this season so far so I had no idea that this was gonna happen! I think this power really suits her especially after last year when a lot of people were saying they should get rid of Chloe because could use a computer (That really ticked me off by the way! Look where Lana is now while Chloe is being totally amazing!) But back on topic I thought her power was awesome!

I'm with the guys that believe that

Chloe's powers just can't save Clark. Anything from the human vs alien or the fact that it's Kryptonite based ability (maybe). I'm personally hoping this ends the speculation that her healing Clark will be the death of her by the end of the series.

I do love the speculation about Brainiac. I'm more inclined to believe since this is the only time her power acted aggressively to protect her, that Brainy left an imprint on her.

[KaraClarkfan]

It really sucks that she doesn't have her healing power anymore because I liked Chloe with that power, but I think her new power (super smartness/intelligence/???) suits her too. I'm thinking that it came with being infected by Brainiac and her healing power doing something to him... Maybe when that happened, her healing power was substituted for her super smart power.

so is it possible that chloe could have drain braniac's powers? that's scary

[SteveS]

I don't see Chloe elongating her fingers into metal probes and poking them into people's skulls, but some such could happen during the season. It is more like that the new PTB recognize that the most popular and longest standing female on Smallville is and has been very important and they are going to boost her up one way or another, while at the same time trying to make this version of lois acceptable to all viewers, something the latter has never been during her part-time employment in Smallville. (although her new, darker hair color looked better; lois, not Chloe)

[stenochick]

well said steno chick, but as to what this forum is about.. what do you think about chloes power situation?

Oh, sorry. The only thought that interested me was your comments about Clark's powers. Chloe's powers don't interest me so much. I like the original, non-meteor-powered Chloe from Smallville High.

I agree. I'm not sure I like the whole Brainiac thing. But it's certainly suspenseful. It will be interesting to see if her Brainiac powers start to take a life of their own.

[bernardchin]

I think she's got a little bit of Brainiac in her now. Does this mean she might become the eradicator or oracle?

[chlo-el]

I don't think so. I think that Brainiac did something to her that gave her that super brainiac power. And I'm thinking that her power just doesn't work on Clark because he's an alien.

[pman_75]

I think it was Chloe's healing power that kept her from going into the same coma that Lana did when Brainiac probed her. It may have taken all of her healing power to prevent that. It also probably transfered some of brainiac's intelligence into Chloe.

[ginnyfan]

^But Chloe did go into the same coma that Lana did.

[getkuhl]

yeah she did go into the coma, i think her power is more than just healing anways... it defended her and in the process tapped into brainiac and got his intelligence.
brainiac didnt do anything to chloe to give her his intelligence.
his intention was to hurt her, the reason he said "what the hell are you?" is probably because he didnt know she was a meteor freak before he attacked her.
he was a super computer and all, but i dont think there was anyway for him to know about her power until he sank his fingers into her brain.
i think her power went defensive and it was all he could do to pull out of her brain, if he hadnt, chloe could have possibly gained more from him....

[Iluvgreen]

Pretty much she sucked brainiacs power from him in arctic. and now she super smart. and pretty much chloe is amazing.

[nickyjean_1]

I thought he was trying to turn her into a puppet like he did to Lana. Which as I understood it added part of brainie into the victim allowing him to control them. The difference was, IMO, her power assimulated the part of brainiac that was injected into her as part of her which increased her IQ.. Only a guess though and I might be completely wrong.

[ginnyfan]

^I really like that idea. That way, Chloe didn't soak up Brainiac's abilities she just cut him off from the controls when he invaded her mind. Great guess!

[Khyla]

I think her healing power will just be more evolved this year. where she can use it with out dying. And from Artic I was thinking she had something to do w/ energy. ... That could be how she heals people by giving them energy.
Yes that's how it works. She is able to somehow tap into POSITIVE energy and she can transfer it.


...
I dont know if her healing powers are gone...or if it had something to do with the shot she was given??

I love that she is super smart....but I have to admitt her healing powers seem more useful. Who knows....maybe she'll have both?

I really thought the loss of her "healing" power had to do with that shot she was given, and here's why:

Her "healing" power is really an ability to amass and use POSITIVE ENERGY and "give" it to others, while also protecting herself. ... The shot arrested or blocked the positive energy, forcing her to follow an enemy's command (Negative energy). As stated it only lasted for a very short time, even shorter than it affected Oliver, but it had an after-effect with Chloe. It basically neutralized her ability to tap into the positive energy, and was hopefully only temporary....

Still we don't know for sure how recently her healing power was displayed to her captors. It could be that there were other Krypto-laced concoctions injected into her throughout the time she was held, that had a accumulative effect.

CHloe is apparently able to repel or dissipate Negative energy, but the shot made from her mother's spinal fluid was able to bypass, or deceive her body from detecting it at first.

As far as Brainiac's involvement, I think that's a good guess nickyjean; that since CHloe repels/dissipates negative energy, she absorbed the intelligence, which in and of itself is positive energy.

I wonder if Chloe's mom is dead then? Or did the just take as much fluid as the could without killing her?

I think that the writer's intentions are for Chloe to lose the healing ability and have this one instead, which I think is shady. Granted she should of have "super brain powers" to begin with (because that was her strength as a normal human), but after her having this gift, its hard to see it being taken away and "replaced". Chloe is all heart an now I guess she is going to be all brain.

[nickyjean_1]

I believe they were saying the took the fluid from Chloe's mom prior to her 'escape.'

[marka58091]

I was confused at first how she got this new power and why her healing power is gone. I think she got her new power when Brianac attacked her in Artic. I think she picked up some of his intelligence during the attack and in turn it her healing power off for now. If you read the spoilers for the upcoming episode toxic it says Chloe will try and heal Oliver so maybe her powers will come back.

[yoda1138777]

Her powers for hacking have become more than super, it has become the answer for everything in the show until it ends. Nobody figures out anything for themselves unless they goto Chloe.

[sweetsam_7]

Chloe's power to heal people may not be the consequence of being exposed to kryptonite. When she was exposed to kryptonite in "levitas" her ability was to be a live truth serum. People told her the truth no matter what. But she was cured and her ability went away with that. I think her ability to bring people back to life may be the consequence of exposure to the bright light which transports Clark and Chloe to the north pole. In a episode from a previous season a similar blast from the ship brought Martha Kent back to life after she was declared dead and healed Clark. Just my take. I may be completely wrong.
