Episode #8-9: "Abyss"

Speculate away.

 

[Prison Mike]

good title

 

[KBX]

phantom zone?

 

[Brainiac 8]

Maybe the episode where he gets Kara back?

 

[04nbod]

Maybe the episode where he gets Kara back?

But 'bloodline' would be a more appropriate title for a kara episode it would seem

 

[KBX]

I really hope plans change so Kara can have a little arc in episode 9,10, and 11.... so it can be a little bit more satisfying...

 

[COMPO]

maybe its more a Bloome episode uno with him falling more into the dark abyss of Doomsday

 

[b24]

prbably everyone's favourirte lana returns

 

[Prison Mike]

prbably everyone's favourirte lana returns

maybe

and I see a lot more hate than love for her.

 

[Brainiac 8]

For what it's worth, I didn't mind her...but to each his own.

As far as this goes, I think the idea that it is about Bloome sinking further may be on the money...maybe setting up an explosive fight in episode 10.

 

[b24]

i hope lana this time has also MOVED ON

i remmeber KK said in interview that when lana returns she is changed person she has matured allot emotinally fans will see new lana when she returns

i hope they show lanan well stelled with someone else and is in good reltionship

 

[COMPO]

they have done he went nuts and she got back with Clark but here's hoping lol

 

[Webhead2006]

Well recent report says KK's lana return which was rumored to start in nov sweep might be pushed back to later in the season. Personally before the change in episodes i would have liked her to be in episodes 10-14 which would have been a good time. But now with the change in legion spot to 11 i hope she doesnt return untill 12-16 now. Also yea i cant wait to see what happens in this episode and also laura's return spot will she be in 8,9, 11? who knows right now.

 

[04nbod]

its not fair on kristen to jumble her schedule like that. She needs to arrange work while shes not on smallville

 

[Webhead2006]

well the thing with kk we have no clue when she is appearing for her 5 episode run. One report said she would be back during nov sweeps which would be episodes 8-10 but then more recent report said she may not be back to feb sweeps which would be episodes 11(i hope not)-16.

 

[b24]

i hope lana's plot will be B plot in the 5 episodes not A plot

 

[Webhead2006]

Yea me too.

 

[Brainiac 8]

It will be. My lord you would think that Lana dumped everyone here with the griping that goes on about her.

I'm sure their story will revolve around just finishing their story, since in my opinion, a goodbye video is not a great way to give that story closure.

 

[Webhead2006]

Yea i wish they were not wasting 5 episodes for lana and have it done in 1 maybe 2 episodes. but only reason she is back for 5 episodes is to fullfill her contract from season 7 when she left to film street fighter film.

they had to do 5 episodes bacause KK missed few episodes in seseaon 7 from veritas to quest and arctic (if u don't count video tape footage) it is some contract thing

 

[Serene]

LMAO! Sad, but true. I guess in a way, maybe she did.

And there you go. An actual common sense opinion. I'm actually pretty hopeful about Lana's return. I'm thought her return might coincide with Chloe's wedding, but who knows.

I really don't believe that they are going to fan the flames of a big Clana reunion, not in the sense of any long-term relationship at least. If anything, I think they will show us that both have moved on enough to now have more of the iconic and deep friendship that they have in the comics.

Clark will probably have moved on more than Lana though, since his feelings for Lois have been awakened. That's pretty in line with the comics too. Lana left him so he could move on, but I don't think she ever really stops loving him. She's really quite a tragic figure in the whole Superman saga, IMO.

 

[COMPO]

I think taht was the first time they broken up isn't it no wait Hypnotic but this time it'll give Clark more time to get over her seeing as he doesn't have to see everyday now.

 

[ironman29758]

UPDATED 9/3/08: The friendship of Clark and Chloe will be explored, and there may be some flashbacks going all the way back to the first time she visited his very "Amish" barn.
- Only four of the show's eight recurring cast members appear in this episode.

niiice

Innnnnnteresting. Pre-Pilot days... cool. It'll certainly be a trick getting them to look like their season 1 selves.
