Characters need to die to simply make his secret identity a secret again. Seeing him propose to Lana in the FOS kills me. I don't know what the hell brings them there, but she sure as hell don't belong.

Look back (in this thread) at what JS posted on his website. JK goes down because of his heart (something I theorized previously by pointing out that JK is wearing the same clothes during his fight with Lionel that he is in Clarks arms in the FOS) -- Lana apparently goes down because of an accident.
It appears to happen at the same time.

This could all theoretically still end up on Clark’s shoulders. As a previous poster has said: what if Jor-El doesn’t collect the debt so much as he knows “Nature” will? “Nature” being smart like it is knows there’s a good chance Clark can save someone he loves, so it puts two people down for the count at the same time, and makes Clark choose which to save (can’t be in two places at once).

so ur sayin he chooses lana over his father?

i can take all the changes they made to the superman mythos, but killing Lana would just... ugh.. NO.

I say Jonathan dies - but somehow, Lex gets the blame for it. It can never be proven or even if it can, Lex has enough money to get out of it..This finally ends the friendship bewteen Clark and Lex, it has been under strain, but this does it..No more. Will Lex have something to do with it? Maybe..Maybe not, but either way, it ruins anything left with Lex and Clark.

Lionel will die ...Eventually. This episode? Maybe. It may show the constrast of Lex and Clark..Each dealing with a loss of a father..Clark mournin', Lex layin' back and not carin'.

Clark will tell Lana before Jon dies. Lana will turn him down for the secerts , the hidin' and then, while he is crushed, he'll lose his father.

i dont think he'll be crushed. the ideal way lana would turn him down is because i HOPE she tells clark that his destiny is too great to be spent with just her. he is capable of doing great things and her rejection will be because she feels she's too inadequate for his needs. she'll say how its jealous of her to want an intimate relationship with someone who has all these abilities.

i finally think i understand what the 'un-devoted' part in ur sig means. at first i thought it was a personal thing (divorce?) but now i think it means you no longer go to DTS but visit TW.org?

Yeah, I was banned for supposedly stealing news content from them even though it was hardly an exclusive news item they were talking about and I have no reason to steal from those passive aggressive *****es anyways.

I can actually write and I do have ethics, unlike them.

Am I bitter? Naw... not me. ;)

Anyway, I'm the "Cindy" on tw.org that sometimes manages to sneak in news updates before James has a chance to. :D

There's some MAJOR new stuff to think about after this ep (Fanatic). The DTS 20 sec trailer -- look at it again! Look at the clothes Clark is wearing during the Lana the accident. Look familiar to some pics we've already seen?
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y183/Zing79/compare01.jpg
Not only is it the same suit, the tie is open in the exact same way. Me thinks two characters go down for the count at the SAME time. Clark finally learns its impossible to save everyone?

I think you're right and I noticed that Clark was wearing the same thing as the FOS/Jonathan images right off....

This episode is going to be a heart breaker, that is for sure, no matter who buys it. I'm tearing up just thinking about it.

Well, going by the new screen caps (http://www.kryptonsite.com/reckoningtrailer1.htm) for Reckoning's trailer on KryptonSite, I'm not sure he knows Jonathan is in trouble when he saves Lana.

http://www.kryptonsite.com/reckoningtrailer36.htm

http://www.kryptonsite.com/reckoningtrailer37.htm

Those are real interesting images, given it looks like both Jonathan and Clark are at the accident scene...

All I can say is wow... :eek:

Maybe Clark runs off with Lana to save her when Jonathan has his heart attack, I dunno what to think about these.

What I do hope is that time somehow speeds up between now and then, because I don't think I can wait two weeks to see what will happen.

I dont like that. Its Smallville not Stargate or any other Time Travel thing. To bad Lana wont stay dead. Would have benn GOOD Character Development for Lex especially after Lexmas. I think Clark simply takes Lana to the FOS & Jor El revives Lana & then once Clark hears about Jonathan he tries to get Jor El to revive Jonathan. Boy Clark will be doing alot of pleading, begging with Jor El this Episode.

I keep trying to tell myself that a mind whammy doesnt equal character progression.

But what if its enough for Clark to know that Lana accepted him. Its something that has plagued him since the Pilot. He realises that he can never have her. If that's what it boils down to, knowing my secret is dangerous then what about the Kents and Chloe, and Pete whereever he is, still knows.

And for Lana wont she still want to know what the truth is and still continue with her endeavours to uncovering the meteor showers.

Unless they give her amnesia for a while and that's why she hooks up with Lex only to regain her memory by the end of the season. I could see them doing that.

I think this is bothering me more than the death now.

as for the time travel.....and the everyone dying thing, i think that would be awesome.

what if clark tells lana the truth and she freaks out and confides in lex...in the interim period everybody dies because of this reveal, including johnathan from a heart attack. jor-el reveals the secrets of time travel, and clark races the world back and never tells lana, which prevents everyone from dying except for jonathan who would have died anyway. then we can have a verbatim track of stm "with all my power, and i couldn't even save him."

that would be some good television, even though i am still holding out hope its not jonathan that kicks it.

Its hard to tell but it also could be Jonathan, which makes more sense. He's kind of got that fluffy hairdo thing going on at the moment.





I just read some specs somewhere else that say that Chloe helps Clark with the time reversal. I think I'd seen that somewhere else too.

They could reverse time to just before Lana leaves Lex's, and in the meantime Jonathan dies, making Clark realise that he cant control everything and that nature has its way.

I prefer Lana dying & Clark taking her to the FOS & Jor El agrees to revive her. The whole going back in time thing does not match the leaked Pictures.

The size and importance of this episode is becoming increasingly obvious. I mean, derr, 100th episode, deaths, blah blah blah...yes, I know we knew. But it just seems like every little thing that comes out....marriage proposal, cheating?, death, more death....

I'm not convinced about any of the deaths yet. Jonathon, Lana...the spots from last night seem to indicate Lana, but c'mon, they're not going to be THAT obvious...

01-13-2006, 03:09 PM
Okay I think I've got it worked out. ;)

The reveal and the Fos scene take place first, then the proposal which has Lana saying that she needs to think about it.

Clark goes back to Smallville, Lana goes to Metropolis. Lana, after talking with Chloe decides that she is ready to accept Clark's proposal so she goes out to the farm and tells Clark that she loves him and yes she'll marry him some day. He puts the ring on her finger.

I think the Lana/Chloe conversation is the catalyst.

Clark is ready to go to the victory party with his parents and Lana says she'll meet him there and that she just wants to go and talk to Lex first.

She goes to talk to Lex, Lex is drunk cause he lost the election, Lana tells him that her and Clark are engaged, Lex gives her a kiss and some other situation between Lex and Lana happens here. Whether she spots something about Clark and takes it or whatever (not really important to the scheme of things) but whatever it is it makes Lex go after her.

Lana's out driving on the road talking to Clark on the cell about whatever it was she picked up in Lex's office, Lex is trying to get her to pull over, she takes her eyes off the road and bang.

The victory party cant be too far away considering Jonathan's in those shots with Clark running up to the car and Lana laying on the road.

My guess would be that Clark in order to save Lana uses his abilities in front of everyone and races off to the FOS to beg Jor-el to save her.

This is where the time manipulation and Chloe comes into play.

Time goes back to just before Chloe and Lana's conversation.

Clark will seek Chloe's help, possibly having told her everything that has happened and asking her not to talk with Lana regarding the proposal and to tell her that she should take some time to think about it for a while before she does anything.

Therefore Lana doesnt go out to the farm and accept the ring, and she doesnt go to Lex.

Now in the meantime a different time line of events unfold and Jonathan and Lionel will get into their fight, as per the images we've seen, Jonathan will have a heart attack. Clark will come home and see Jonathan passed out in the barn he'll then proceed to the FOS again begging for help.

This time Jor-el will give him some speech about not being able to change destiny and other stuff. Jonathan will probably regain consciousness for a short while and he and Clark will have their final good byes.

Clark will learn that with all his powers he still cant save everybody.

We'll have the funeral and Martha and Lana will be at Clark's side not knowing about the change of events. Only Chloe knows.

Lana and Clark remain unengaged.

Clark has always felt responsible for the death of Lana's parents even though the situation was out of his control. And Lana due to circumstances beyond her control will be responsible for Jonathan's death. Maybe Clark will finally be able to forgive himself for this.

In actuality the original chain of events are because of Lex. Which could lead to tension between Clark and Lex.

I'm not sure where Lionel fits in to all of this, but I wouldnt be surprised to see him going too and perhaps because of Lex's meddling.

Maybe it's Jonathan that went after Lionel. He has a balled up piece of paper in his hand at one point, maybe he found out about Lionel's illegal financial contribution to his campaign.

Jonathan would be upset by that for several reasons:

Well, the contribution was illegal
If anyone finds out about the contribution, it would ruin Jonathan's political career for good.
Lionel's manipulation of Martha's love and devotion for Jonathan is just plain creepy.
His manipulation of Martha also brings up the jealousy that Jonathan had felt back in Season 2 when she was working for Lionel.

I think Lionel knows about Clark, and Lionel will threaten to blackmail Jonathan using Clark's secret and the financial aid as the bait.

His financial contribution. Give me what I want (I dont know what that is but I think it has something to do with Clark) or I'll spill the beans about the illegal financial contribution that you received.

Remember Lionel said in Transference, "I now know why you are so secretive, true power is better left unsaid". Or words to that effect.

Avid - Nice spec. I'm not sure about the reversing time thing..but hey, they did it in the movies when Supes saved Lois, so I guess it's not inconceivable that they'd do a SV-version of the same thing.

I still think it's very possible that Jonathan will somehow offer his lifeforce in exchange for Lana's (or Clark's since he would be offering too.) It would be his final lesson for Clark about self-sacrifice. Jonathan might know that his ticker doesn't have a lot of time left on it anyway.

Either that.. or Lana will just die. (%*#@&!)

I still have to wonder about Jor-El and his calling of the death. It seemed like the death would be as a result of Jor-El taking the pound of flesh to put mother nature back in order.. but in light of all the specs on any of the character's deaths.. none of them seem to fit that criteria. Jonathan's death sounds like it's either a result of his heart giving out, or him sacrificing himself. Lana's death would be the result of a Lex-related car accident.

So.. where (or, who?) is Jor-El's pound of flesh?

But this still does not answer a few things. Like it was said before if Jonathan dies of a simple Heart Attack then that is not Jor El causing the death. If Lex is the one that chases Lana off the road that is not the death from bringing Clark back to life. Maybe those Pictures of Jonathan & Lana at the FOS WAS intentionally leaked & they were just alternate Scenes shot to fool us ?

Either way we have 2 deaths according to spoilers that have NOTHING to do with the results of bringing Clark back to life

Well he did know that it was someone Clark loved, so I still think he thought it would be Jonathan, maybe he anticipated Lana's resurrection as well. I dunno, its all a bit mind boggling.

So your saying due to Clark going back in time saving Lana something else happens to Jonathan & he does NOT die because of a heart attack ? You can NOT change or stop a heart attack. You are suggesting that because Clark goes back in time that is what sets up the heart attack that is NOT possible. Jonathan dying at that time will happen no matter what. Clark is NOT Neo.

OLD NEWS....but for whats it worth:

CLARK MEETS A FEMALE AVENGER — Clark (Tom Welling) discovers the new reporter at the Daily Planet ? a bespectacled, bumbling woman named Maya (Denise Quinones, former “Miss Universe”) ? is actually a masked avenger who fights crime at night. Meanwhile, Clark’s bottled-up grief threatens to get the best of him. Kristin Kreuk, Michael Rosenbaum, Erica Durance, Allison Mack, John Glover, Annette O’Toole and John Schneider also star.

The airs after Reckoning...looks like every one stars....another spin by the WB . Do they have Bill O'Reilly running the show???

Believe nothing. That's...pretty much the stance I'm taking :p
Remind me why I like you so much again? ;)

I've basically read this entire thread, and I'm confused lol. I'm hoping the death is either Jonathon or Chloe. I'm hoping it's not Lana for 2 reasons...
1. I love KK:)
2. Lana's death makes it seem as if Lois is second best in the future, and that just ain't right

Did anyone notice in last night's episode that Lana said "I'll never know what it's like to come back from the dead".

Thought that was some interesting forshadowing. We're all speculating that she wont remember, but maybe she will.

whoaaa wait...

you mean clark tells lana, lana dies, gets resurrected, and DOESN'T REMEMBER ANYTHING?

If they do the time reversal thing (and I'm really hoping they don't go there), it doesn't mean that it erases the reveal of his origins or the proposal. Time could turn back to just before the accident happens. Although like I said, I really don't want them to go there. If Lana dies in the accident, I hope she stays dead. I hope the pleading with Jor-el is for Jonathan's life, not Lana, and I hope it's Jonathan's life that is spared.

The only thing I would like with the time reversal thing if it happens with Lana is that I could then go into a certain thread and say their theory has been wrong all along. It's not Chloe who is really Lois. It's Lana. :D

That's another reason I am so against the time reversal thing if it happens with Lana. That is a classic Clois moment in Superman history and to repeat it with Lana just cheapens it, in my opinion. Lana is already being made out to be the love of Clark's life and that's just not true. I don't want it to seem that Clark ends up with Lois in the future by default because he couldn't have his precious Lana. And if Lana dies, I am afraid it will seem this way.

That's why I'm holding out hope that it will be Chloe who dies. Not that I really want her to die. I like Chloe and I don't know who would take her place as Clark's sidekick and confidante right now. But I still think he needs his dad and I don't want Lana to go from princess to saint. Besides, it just seems suspicious to me that Chloe hasn't been in any "official" death spoiler speculation and she is prominently featured in spoilers for the following eps. So let's just say I won't be surprised if there is a big twist and Chloe buys it. Not that I really look for that to happen.

It will probably be Jonathan and if Lana dies too I hope there is no resurrection for her.

I think it depends on how much value you place on those particular aspects of the mythology. In this telling of the tale, Lana IS the love of his life, so far at least.

We all have different expectations of this show. The range runs from those who have no clue about any of the previous Superman incarnations (my daughter and her friends fall into this category), all the way to those who know every detail of every Superman incarnation throughout history. I'm probable somewhere in the middle of that spectrum. Truly, I'm FINE with them changing whatever they want.. except for one thing, the unique essence of the greatest Superhero ever, alien-born and human raised. As long as they continue to capture that quality that takes my breath away as only a true "hero" can.. I'm pretty content.

So, I guess I just don't hold the show to the same expectations as those who are more bonded with the films or comic storylines.

It's all cool though. Plenty of room for all opinions. Well, except the die-hards.. but they're just crabby. :p

I never really got the Princess title, at least not since the first episode. An orphaned but independent girl working in a coffee shop and trying to find her way in life doesn't scream "Princess" to me. She is very beautiful, but I think all the women on that show are beautiful.

Besides, it just seems suspicious to me that Chloe hasn't been in any "official" death spoiler speculation and she is prominently featured in spoilers for the following eps. So let's just say I won't be surprised if there is a big twist and Chloe buys it.
I completely agree.

It will probably be Jonathan and if Lana dies too I hope there is no resurrection for her.
I'm more inclined to think that if she does indeed die, as opposed to just being critically injured, that she will be resurrected. The trailer and spoiler pics are just tooo obvious, if they were really going to kill her off. I mean, showing her crash, then laying there bloody, then Clark at a funeral? It's too much of a tease for her to be dead, or stay dead.

I'm more concerned about a potential mind-wipe of sorts. For him to finally tell her, and have her accept him.. then have everything reset back to square one with them? I may have to throw something really heavy at my TV if that happens.

I agree with you 100% Lana is not{ "the love of Clark's life"} Lois is . (Superman/Clark Kent in every incarnations (comics, film, TV, radio and more) always says That Lois is {"The love of his life"} .

I don't want it to seem that Clark ends up with Lois in the future by default because he couldn't have his precious Lana. And if Lana dies, I am afraid it will seem this way.

I hope it's not like that either . Lois & Clark should end up together in the future because they fell in love with each other & want to spend the rest of their live with each other .

Lana is Clark's first love, not his soul mate. He hasn't found her (Lois) yet so he doesn't know what a love for someone who is your soul mate is like yet.

He has no idea that Lana isn't the one.

I don't think Clark having a serious romantic relationship with Lana now, even if she does die and isn't resurrected, is any danger to the true love he'll find later for Lois. It won't make Lois "a poor second" it won't invalidate the feelings he'll have for Lois in the future at all.

You can love more than one person, but I think in fiction there's only one soul mate. Lois is Clark's.

nono... ack. my post came out wrong. ok it is obvious that in SV's reincarnation, we won't have a 'bumbling Clark.' Its going to be this Clark Kent + Superman.

For our beloved kryptonian, he has dual personalities, and somewhat dual lives in smallville. For Clark Kent of Smallville, Lana Lang is the love of his life. But when he becomes Superman aka HIMSELF, his true personality, the love of his life will be Lois. He would have moved on from Lana by then.

I'm not at liberty to say considering the present and future of Smallville is totally different than what we are used to. However, if you want some prespective on the relationship between these characters in the comics Id know what to say.....Clark didnt even love Lana in a romantic way in the comics, it was like the Clark/Chloe friendship.

I don't want it to seem that Clark ends up with Lois in the future by default because he couldn't have his precious Lana. And if Lana dies, I am afraid it will seem this way.Good point!! I have to agree here, 100%. In Blank, Chloe tells Clark that Lana is the "love of his life." The writers are TELLING the auidence this blatantly through the dialog. And Clark's actions around Lana reinforce that assertion. So if Lana dies, that removes her from the equation, and Clark has no other "choice" than to seek love elsewhere. That kinda sux, IMHO.

It does cheapen his eventual relationship with Lois, because he's spent two years around her as it is, and he's not even (apparently) attracted to her physically. In fact, he's annoyed by her very presence. For the purposes of entertainment, that makes for good drama. But when you look at the big picture, it really does start to come off as a "sloppy seconds" type scenario. Obviously, we'll have to see how it plays out, but if they ever do off Lana on SV, they should make it clear that she wouldn't have chosen to be with Clark - or that his feelings would have changed (as unimaginable as that might seem right now) - before her death. That would solve the "problem."

When chloe says lana is the love of his life, she is 100% correct. Lana is Smallville's Clark's love. However, IMO when he becomes Superman IN THIS SHOW, he will become a totally different entity, different person, different everything, and Lois will be the love of Supermans life.

Since you guys use this word alot who knows maybe that can also be "FORESHADOWING" maybe the writers always planned for something to happen to Lana & while Clark is doing his best to get over the fact Lana dies Lois is one of the ones that try comforting Clark ? She was there when Alicia died. Who knows might be the same thing here. Key word here is "FORESHADOWING" Lois was at the scene where Clark found Alicia dead & Lois turns up where Lana dies but this time Lois sticks around to help Clark.

It would be nice to have just a leeeetle nod here and there though. For example, I absolutely LOVED Blank, but I try not to think too deeply about what was implied in that ep. Clark was completely stripped of all his knowledge about who and what he is, and who he can and can't trust. He's left to "trust his gut." He's so enamored with Lana when he first sees her, he incinerates a table lamp at the talon (LOL). His gut feeling with Lois is that "we don't like each other all that much." :mad: That really peeved me. If Lois is to be the eventual love of Clark's life, there should be *something* about her NOW that intrigues him. Something. Anything!

We know why Lois will fall for Superman. That's obvious. Even if SV's Lois KNOWS Clark is Superman, we know how she will act when she first sees him "do his thing" AS Superman. The writers made that clear in Aqua. But Clark isn't even interested in Chloe, and if ANYBODY acts like a young Lois Lane, it's Chloe. So what in tarnation is going to get Clark to "notice" Lois? Her martial arts skills? Oh wait, Lana knows that too. :rolleyes: :p

Meh. It's just a pet peeve, that's all. Lois can break Clark's chops till dooms' day - that's what she does - but Clark falls for Lois. HARD! Like Lex and his eventual evil personification, that shouldn't be a light switch. There SHOULD be some build up to it. JMHO.

The writers made that clear in Aqua. But Clark isn't even interested in Chloe, and if ANYBODY acts like a young Lois Lane, it's Chloe. So what in tarnation is going to get Clark to "notice" Lois? Her martial arts skills? Oh wait, Lana knows that too. :rolleyes: :p

Meh. It's just a pet peeve, that's all. Lois can break Clark's chops till dooms' day - that's what she does - but Clark falls for Lois. HARD! Like Lex and his eventual evil personification, that shouldn't be a light switch. There SHOULD be some build up to it. JMHO.

Youre overanalysing. We may not even see a real explanation for why Clark and Lois end up together.....the series finale is supposed to end with him putting on the suit right? Well thats when he makes his first appearance and Lois is attracted to him....they dont start to have a relationship till years later.....we may never see the complexities involved in their future relationship.

There is also that. Unless of course Lois finds out his secret in Smallville & she realises all the things Clark has done. But if Lana dies shortly after finding out Clarks secret Clark would want to be damn sure to let no one else find out :p

Hehehehehe. Too funny, especially coming from you, Crisis. No offense intended. ;)

Uhkay, I can see your point, but at the same time, I think the writers would be doing the audience a disservice to NOT explain what it is about Lois that will eventually make her the love of Clark's life - or as some folks here like to say, his "soulmate." Outside of the comics, it's never really been addressed. Clark just falls for Lois at the Planet. But SV has changed that history - and I'm TOTALLY FINE with that - but it does complicate things a bit, as Pixie pointed out.

I LOVE how Lois and Clark bust each other's chops on SV. It's VERY entertaining, and truth be told, in hindsight, I wouldn't have it any other way. But other than that one throwaway line in Gone, where Lana tells Clark "the good ones always start out that way," there hasn't been one single demonstrable event that would indicate Clark has any attraction to Lois, and vice versa. Lois has BAD dreams about men in red capes (Commencement.) It's totally funny, but what's that say? She has ZERO attraction to him physically (Crusade, Gone, Devoted, etc.) and she's very much aware of who HIS love is (Spirit, Commencement, Arrival, Aqua). And as far as Clark is concerned, Lois exasperates him. He was so "exhausted" by her in Fanatic, he flopped down on Lana's bed, completely whooped. Kinda funny for a guy who "rescues people from burning buildings and stops nuclear missiles in between doing farm chores before dinner." LOL :p

Yeah, but Pat.. all those examples you've cited above of Clark getting so annoyed by Lois *are* proof of how much she affects him. Maybe not in the way she will in the future, but I think there is a lot to be read in the way that she brings things out in him that no one else does. Lana's words were very prophetic, purposely so, but I think they have much farther reaching implications than first realized.

And you know how much I hate to admit that. ;)

LOL Perhaps a bad example, but I'm just trying to make a point. Just because another character is getting to Cark in an annoying way, it shouldn't necessarily be assumed she will become his soulmate. UNLESS, the writers throw us a bone. I've merely been waiting for the bone, that's all. Color me impatient, but don't sweat it. I'm sure it'll be covered at some point in the future.

I guess its perception too, because I can definitely see Clark being attracted to her on SV, though subtle, but I still think its there. I'd go on but its kind of off topic anyway..and I'm dead tired...I probably shouldn't have said anything at all really, lol.

It does cheapen his eventual relationship with Lois, because he's spent two years around her as it is, and he's not even (apparently) attracted to her physically. In fact, he's annoyed by her very presence. For the purposes of entertainment, that makes for good drama. But when you look at the big picture, it really does start to come off as a "sloppy seconds" type scenario. "

That's not true at all. You want to hear something really personal and kind of embarrassing? My wife babysat me once :eek: (She's only 4 years older than me BTW) She was in my life when I was about 10 but I never thought anything of her until I was about 22. I dont think she's not the "love of my life" because it took me 12 years to be attracted to her. Circumstances and feelings change over time. Either that or I'm just slow :(

And our lovable, adorable Clark is also slow in some ways, according to some. :D

What was that look that Clark gave Lois coming down the stairs in
Spirit? It was a gulp that implied "whoa you're hot baby". Looked like foreshadowing to me, if only a subtle one.

In Hidden on Clark's deathbed Lana gave us an insight into why she wont stay with Clark. She wont be able to handle his lifestyle. She'll constantly be worrying about him. She needs someone to be there for her all the time. That doesnt make her selfish, it makes her honest and courageous because she realises Clark is meant for bigger things, like saving the world on a daily basis. She wont be able to deal with that. Lois will.

Clark will move on from Lana because he knows that he has this responsibility to the world and she wont be able to be the one at his side. They'll have their bittersweet ending like we've been led to believe.



***********

I dont think Lana's going to die in this episode. It's just being implied that way.

I think the Lex/Lana conversation and the car accident will be part of the teaser. In the first Act we'll have Clark begging Jor-el for help and then everything will be reset and all of the images that we've seen will then be played out as time reset.

AgentPat

Aight, I had a feeling I'd see quite a bit of disagreement on the Lois/Clark interaction. Hey, that's cool. In a way, it means something is "working" between the characters that's being conveyed to the audience, but the writers don't want to hit us over the head with it. That in itself is funny since the Superman references ARE pretty blatant at times LOL.

My only reason for bringing any of this up was because I was in agreement with Pixie. If there was *ever* a reason to NOT off Lana, this is it. She's been set up since day one - or rather since Clark was five - as the girl of his dreams. The one (he believes) he's meant to be with. His soulmate, and all that jazz. Since the story is fiction, it's open to interpretation, but if Lana were to die, Clark is left with little choice but to move on. The show is replete with fate-based decisions; "I didn't have a choice" is practically Clark's mantra LOL. I just think the story would be better if Lana lets Clark go because she knows he's too important to the world. It's more bittersweet that way than just offing her character so Clark has no other choice than to find love elsewhere.

wats TMI mean?LOL TMI: Too much information. ;)

I love this. All of the evidence from the official trailers and previews points to anyone BUT Jonathan, or any of the other more obvious candidates.

Unofficial evidence, on the other hand ...Good point. Most people on this board know with a great deal of certainty (thanks Mr. Schneider! [waves] ;) ) that Jonathan does indeed die in this ep, and more than likely stays that way. But posters to an Internet board are a pretty small minority compared to the overall audience, most of whom probably have no clue whatsoever. The ratings grabber would be to make people think it was Lana. And really, when you watch those trailers, that's what they insinuate.

John S. had put up a notice on his site (http://www.johnschneider.tv/index.php) that Pa Kent was going to die and he thanked his fans for their support but that he was okay with it, He said the episode was terrific, etc... etc...

Only a few hours later, the message was pulled and this was put up instead:

I appreciate everyone's concern about the "Smallville" rumors but need to strongly reprimand whoever posted todays newsletter regarding the future of my character. In fact, I have read several scripts with Jonathan Kent in them and have no evidence of his demise.

Also... Please don't email anyone at The WB about this as they are busy preparing a fantastic second part of the season for us all.

Again... Rumors are just that and shouldn't be taken too seriously. And please don't write to Mr. Janollari. He is a big fan of not only the show but of mine as well. A great guy!

Lana is Clark's first love, not his soul mate. He hasn't found her (Lois) yet so he doesn't know what a love for someone who is your soul mate is like yet.

He has no idea that Lana isn't the one.

I understand that part, Lana is Clark's First love {Just like Gwen Stacy was Peter Parker's first love}. Ok you have a point their , It's true clark hasn't found his soulmate yet , so he still doesn't know What "True Love" means. (i'm not saying that he & lana don't love each other, but it not "true love" it just a normal love life (for typical teenagers).



I don't think Clark having a serious romantic relationship with Lana now, even if she does die and isn't resurrected, is any danger to the true love he'll find later for Lois. It won't make Lois "a poor second" it won't invalidate the feelings he'll have for Lois in the future at all.

Well I'm glad to hear you say that. I feel more at peace .

You can love more than one person, but I think in fiction there's only one soul mate. Lois is Clark's.

It's true you can love more than one preson(Their are many different forms of love), (just like I love my Parents & my brothers & sisters.) but I don't love my girlfriend the same way as I love my parents .

So true Lois is Clark's Soulmate . :supes:

nono... ack. my post came out wrong. ok it is obvious that in SV's reincarnation, we won't have a 'bumbling Clark.' Its going to be this Clark Kent + Superman.


So you think {SV version}of Clark won't be "The bumbling Reporter" by the time he becomes SUPERMAN ? Intresting.

For our beloved kryptonian, he has dual personalities, and somewhat dual lives in smallville. For Clark Kent of Smallville, Lana Lang is the love of his life. But when he becomes Superman aka HIMSELF, his true personality, the love of his life will be Lois. He would have moved on from Lana by then.

I agree with you 100 % .

I wasn't a huge fan of L&C, but I liked that they didn't go the Reeve route with making Clark a "bumbling" reporter. I always felt such a characterization draws MORE attention to Clark, and that's not something he'd want to do. If he's going to maintain two identities, Clark Kent should just be farmboyesque and unassuming in the big city. Superman will act like he is when he's "SuperClark" in Smallville. LOL

That said, I think they ARE going in the "bumbling" direction. We have Lois' comments from Commencement, and with Vengeance around the corner, I think we're gonna see how and why Clark chooses to don yet another facade. From an acting POV, I'm sure they'll have fun with that. It will also give them the opportunity to stretch their acting chops, something they don't always get the chance to do unless the characters are on something, possessed, or swap bodies with somebody else.

But SV has changed that history - and I'm TOTALLY FINE with that - but it does complicate things a bit, as Pixie pointed out.

I agree with you Pat, I too would love to know Why Clark Kent fell in love with Lois Lane . I know the reason {SUPERMAN fell in love with Lois} that's been explained many times in The comics, animated series & L&C .

I LOVE how Lois and Clark bust each other's chops on SV. It's VERY entertaining, and truth be told, in hindsight, I wouldn't have it any other way.

Yeah it's very entertaining. almost every girl that meets Clark Kent in smallville falls for him. But Lois is the only one that would look at him (say he look great) but is an Idoit. Lois is the only one that can bust Clark's Chops and he likes it (to a certain degree) .



But other than that one throwaway line in Gone, where Lana tells Clark "the good ones always start out that way," there hasn't been one single demonstrable event that would indicate Clark has any attraction to Lois, and vice versa.

Well, Lois had shown a little attraction to Clark while {he was Kal-EL} in "Cursade" When she saw he stark naked in the corn field {and got her first look at "Clark Jr." she also showed one at The Hospital When Kal-EL picked her up & moved her out of the door way. she also show some in every episode she been in. {it's not Major, But it's their}

Clark has shown a little attraction to Lois too. he just been trying so hard not to show it, but it their {It's been their from the first day they met & it's growing} .


Lois has BAD dreams about men in red capes (Commencement.) It's totally funny, but what's that say?

She having Dreams about her Future Husband.


She has ZERO attraction to him physically (Crusade, Gone, Devoted, etc.)

I wouldn't say that they both share an attraction for each other (just not a Romantic one yet.) their releationship right now is a Hate/Love releationship in which they can stand being around each other . But at the same time they find they work together alot and make a really good team .


and she's very much aware of who HIS love is (Spirit, Commencement, Arrival, Aqua).

At this point in Lois's life she see's Clark Kent as an idoit . Who she couldn't care less who he's dating . right now he's not her Man or SUPERMAN, he just an idoit farmboy with a Super Hero complex.

And as far as Clark is concerned, Lois exasperates him. He was so "exhausted" by her in Fanatic, he flopped down on Lana's bed, completely whooped. Kinda funny for a guy who "rescues people from burning buildings and stops nuclear missiles in between doing farm chores before dinner." LOL :p

hell Lois is the love of MY life... I was pretty much drooling on myself during that scene at the end of Fanatic where she's standing in the kitchen talking to Martha....

I agree, I prefer The Hard bold Ace Reporter Clark Kent more so than The "Bumbling idoit" too . (L&C) ,(STAS), & (Post Crisis comics) Reporter Clark Kent was really the best version of Clark as a reporter. Clark didn't stand out, but he wasn't an idoit, he was bold when he had to be.

I agree. I think she wants a stability in her life that Clark won't be able to give her once he embraces his destiny. It's something they'll both realize. Her entire life of losing the people she cared about: her parents, Whitney, her bio father, even Nell, has brought her to a place of wanting someone who will not leave her, or keep her in a constant state of worrying about him. Kinda rules out Clark/:supes: .

Personally, as a fan of the character, whatever path they take her down after her and Clark end it, I hope they leave them as lifelong friends.

I wouldn't be surprised if we got a hint about Lana hooking up with Pete at the very end of this series. Maybe a random line about him coming to visit family...

Not that it probably matters at this point, but I am surprised that none of you have mentioned it yet.

At the end of "Hidden", Jor-El uses the phrase "someone you love" in predicting the upcoming death we all dread. Yet in the trailer at the end of "Fanatic", Jor-El uses the phrase "someone you know". Maybe just more smoke and mirrors (is that the same as 'obfuscation'? :D) by WB, but I was shocked out of a jet-lagged stupor when I heard the change of phrase.

Anyone care to Tivo and check my facts?

And of course, ultimate question is; does it really matter at this juncture in the space/time continuum. BTW, if there is time travel in this ep, I'd guess it will be Jor-El induced rather than Clark flying (running?) backwards in excess of the posted universal speed limit...

Actually, I was pretty jet-lagged and so I apologize for confusing things.

Having said that, I did hear it but it wasn't in the trailer attached to "Fanatic"...

In the "Previously on Smallville" section at the beginning of "Fanatic" Jor-El used the phrase "close to you" or words to that effect. Whatever words he used did not include the words "someone you love".

So, maybe someone could Tivo that and comment.

Again, sorry for the confusion; it was a long week (back and forth to Europe as I travel a good bit in my job).

Squatlow there was no change, he says both things in Hidden. "The life of someone close to you will be exchanged for yours." (Hidden, Fanatic and in ALL the other trailers). The "someone you love" comes later "The life force that has been returned to you will soon be taken from.. someone you love."

Thats a point I brought up....a couple of pages back. Its just to add more confusion.

As for the Lana dying... Look, I'm sorry but Lana Lang will not be killed off the show. Not single out anyone....they wont kill her character b/c of fans on a message board. The show caters to the 18-24 audiance which probably seem to relate more to LANA/CHLOE/CLARK/LEX. Although I am in denial about Jonathan Kent.....let's get serious here people; he posted it on his site. How much more proof do we need? Whether it was taken down or not it was there...I highly doubt it was a mistake.

My bets on Pa Kent and either Lionel or sheriff.

Aight, I had a feeling I'd see quite a bit of disagreement on the Lois/Clark interaction. Hey, that's cool. In a way, it means something is "working" between the characters that's being conveyed to the audience, but the writers don't want to hit us over the head with it. That in itself is funny since the Superman references ARE pretty blatant at times LOL.

My only reason for bringing any of this up was because I was in agreement with Pixie. If there was *ever* a reason to NOT off Lana, this is it. She's been set up since day one - or rather since Clark was five - as the girl of his dreams. The one (he believes) he's meant to be with. His soulmate, and all that jazz. Since the story is fiction, it's open to interpretation, but if Lana were to die, Clark is left with little choice but to move on. The show is replete with fate-based decisions; "I didn't have a choice" is practically Clark's mantra LOL. I just think the story would be better if Lana lets Clark go because she knows he's too important to the world. It's more bittersweet that way than just offing her character so Clark has no other choice than to find love elsewhere.

LOL TMI: Too much information. ;)

Good point. Most people on this board know with a great deal of certainty (thanks Mr. Schneider! [waves] ;) ) that Jonathan does indeed die in this ep, and more than likely stays that way. But posters to an Internet board are a pretty small minority compared to the overall audience, most of whom probably have no clue whatsoever. The ratings grabber would be to make people think it was Lana. And really, when you watch those trailers, that's what they insinuate.

Again, I agree 100% :o :up:

Well yeah, I know that. It would be nice to have just a leeeetle nod here and there though. For example, I absolutely LOVED Blank, but I try not to think too deeply about what was implied in that ep. Clark was completely stripped of all his knowledge about who and what he is, and who he can and can't trust. He's left to "trust his gut." He's so enamored with Lana when he first sees her, he incinerates a table lamp at the talon (LOL). His gut feeling with Lois is that "we don't like each other all that much." :mad: That really peeved me. If Lois is to be the eventual love of Clark's life, there should be *something* about her NOW that intrigues him. Something. Anything!



Well just the fact that he gets annoyed with her and irritated by her says a lot. Lana's phrase of "The best ones always start like that" or something to that effect is true. One of my great and more meaning loves started like that. She was a neighbour which funny enough had lived in the building all her life and I never seen her until that day and then suddenly I started bumping on her all the time, to the point it was really annoying and irritating. And I didn't like it one bit because I was afraid she might think I was stalking her or worse that I was interested in her. Then one day I commented the whole situation with a friend and the fact that I was running in to her all the time and in alot of places and he said "I think you're in love..." and I'm like "no, no, no, I'm just pissed off with this situation and I don't want her to think I'm stalking her when I fact I'm as annoyed as she probably is with this !" and he's "You're in love, Ricardo's in love !"
Well turns out that after some time I did realize I was in love. So it's strange how love works sometimes...

AgentPat is always full of wisdom :up:.

Whatever is done in ep 100, I hope is done in a tasteful manner. I hope G&M do the show in a way that will cater to both the internet and general audiance.

So you think {SV version}of Clark won't be "The bumbling Reporter" by the time he becomes SUPERMAN ? Intresting.

Yea. I dont have time now, but i'll watch every single commentary on each season dvd and see if i can show some evidence as to which direction Al & Miles are going.

this is from a poster at k-site forums..

IMO Jonathan will simply ask Jor El to exchange his life for Lana. Jor El may have accepted Lana's unexpected death as payment in full but Jonathan will want to keep his deal with Jor El and be the one that dies. Clark will have still learned a lesson. That he can't save everyone.

I think he hit the money right here.

Good idea, but I just dont think they'll have Jor-El be God-like

Squatlow there was no change, he says both things in Hidden. "The life of someone close to you will be exchanged for yours." (Hidden, Fanatic and in ALL the other trailers). The "someone you love" comes later "The life force that has been returned to you will soon be taken from.. someone you love."

Ah so, desu ka! Thanks for the clarification.

Nonetheless;

It got me thinking. Which is somethink I try to avoid now and then...

but certainly its in the realm of possibilities after seeing Jor-El's god-like actions in Hidden.

Nobody knows what Jor-El will do next. That crazy Jor-El...Nothing he can do would surprise me. Maybe he'll exchange his own life force.

It looks like its going to be his dad but I think its the only person that would make the deal work.

Now that's an interesting thought. Maybe that's why Jor-el agrees to help Clark resurrect Lana.

Jonathan made the deal back in Exile that he would do anything for Clark and this is why Jor-el was able to bring Clark back.

That scene is different to the way we've seen it in the trailer that aired on TV. In the one on TV Clark runs up saying no, no, no.... and then we have Jonathan trying to hold him back.

I wonder what the heck is going on.

Lex looks more stunned to see Clark coming out of nowhere than what's just happened.

Wow. Just, WOW!! That RULED!!!!

I liked the music too, but that probably won't be the same track played in the actual episode. Those scenes were edited together, both with missing sections, so the soundtrack was probably just for the trailer. Awesome job though. Day-um!!!

And yeah, Lex SEES Clark, in a MAJOR way. This is gonna be interesting. I just hope they don't have to go to the time travel well to "correct" it at the end.


....Unless the accident happens in a bad dream or something?



Nah. ...Gosh, I hope not. LOL

My son said the music was from Lord of the Rings, so I assume they wont be using that.

I've never done this before, so I hope it works.
