Splinter Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

From Ksite

Quote:

Executive Producer Alfred Gough revealed in TV Guide that Lex may hit on Lana in the November 10 episode. This episode and the following one will feature a confrontation between Clark and Brainiac.

Quote:

- Ask Ausiello at TV Guide Online revealed that this episode introduces Silver Kryptonite. What does it do? It makes Clark a bit paranoid. "He imagines his worst fears coming to light," Ausiello teases. Sounds almost like a kryptonite answer to what happened in "Scare" last year!

This is the episode where he is exposed to the paranoia inducing Silver Kryptonite. I can only imagine what sort of fun they are going to have with this.

However, considering this is the episode where Brainiac starts trying to win Clark over, my guess is that he will be doing it with the aid of the silver K.

Should be a good one.

Oh, I can't wait for this one!

It sounds great!

I totally called that "Splinter" would be the eppy where Clark goes paranoid - of course I called it in an email to Craig, so I can't exactly prove it. Triplet can ask him.

So how does Splinter and Paranoid connect with each other? I'm interested to hear what you have to say, or anyone else for that matter.

Me?

Just because I "work" for him doesn't mean he tells me anything...

He said that something special would be coming up in an email to me before he posted that stellar interview with Alan Ritchson, but he didn't tell me much more than that....

'Sides, I don't need to ask him: I believe you. You wouldn't lie about anything having to do with Tom Welling, would you?

Pretty simple, his mind is "Splinter"ed.

You know, I'm not surprised. It took years before he'd tell me about Clark's lacy linge... um, that was supposed to stay a secret.

You always do make things sound so simple, then I feel dumb.

Oh, and for what its worth, I believe you too.

Okay, I'm pretty culturally literate but I'm drawing a complete blank on that one.

And a web search didn't get me much more than an ad for "Johannes P Thiele, MD" in Dallas, a story on liberal Dutch Politician "Johannes P R Tak" and a transcript of an address given by "Johannes P Schade" to a metalurgical conference in Amsterdam....

I was wondering if it was something in the pronounciation.

10-19-2005, 11:14 AM

Johannes is the German version of which name? And P can be an initial for which name?

avidreader · 10-19-2005, 11:23 AM

Okay, John P = Toilet?

10-19-2005, 11:30 AM

Not exactly. I didn't realise this would pose such a problem.

I give up. I bet Triplet's working on it tho.

I wonder if there are any guest stars in this episode. Sounds like its just the main characters, aside from Masters of course. But I consider him a semi regular this season.

Oh, okay! LOL!

I get it.

Today on Triplet discovers: obscure James references are funny if you think about it enough.

Pretty funny...

It was a little in-joke for ol' Triplet and I anyway, so I wouldn't have expected anyone else to get it.

Thunder Emperor · 10-19-2005, 12:10 PM

sweet, considering they are introducing or reintroducing silver-K in the comics

What effect is it going to have on him in the comics?

The only reference to Silver-K in the comics was when Lois and co. made it up to keep Superman away from a 25th(or silver..get it.

) anniversary gift they got him.

So it was never a real thing, just a gag.
