WHATEVER! Tell that to Olsen, he is the one that got the raw deal in this. Even after being right about everything, she screws him over, even more by protecting DINO. She should have begged him for forgiveness. Instead his life goes to shambles, he gets a friggin drug habit over this crap... What a way to make people hate Chloe.
Ugh, getting tired of SV episodes ending with a handful of people close to Clark telling him about what he needs to do. This "afraid to take a life" Clark is getting old. Maybe when Doomsday eats Chloe, he'll man up
They have pretty much ruined Chloe. At the end of the episode they try to cover it up with some bs about her doing it for Clark

Because she hasn't thought this through, despite appearances to the contrary. At best, she's prolonging the inevitable, and she would know that if she gave it a moment's thought. She knows Davis can't be killed, he's essentially immortal, and she knows he was sent to kill Clark. Hello? Chloe? Wake up hon! She cant protect Clark forever. Once she's dead, there's nothing stopping Davis from fulfilling his destiny. The best solution for the world would have been to send Davis to the PZ, because by Chloe's own admission, the good of the world should come before any individual - even Davis. She stopped Clark from banishing Davis, which ultimately ends up killing Superman in the future. Is it any wonder why fans are not too fond of Chloe right now? Well, unless you're a TWoPper.
Where Doomsday can run around and be free to kill all the zoners he wants, not Davis. Davis wants to be human. In 'a world without Chloe', Davis would cease to exist, which is why he refused to go willingly and why Chloe is angry at Clark. He doesn't want to kill Davis with his own hands, but Clark's willing to sacrifice the human side of him anyway by sending him to the PZ. I think Clark realises this, which is why he let them go at the Fortress.
Ahh, but you can't discount the beginning of that fantasy/nightmare. Chloe's very real attraction and desire for Davis - even knowing that he's a murderer - is made extremely clear.
Her later claim that she is doing "all this for Clark" is a half-truth at best, and an outright lie at worst.
Chloe has had far too many opportunities to be truthful with Clark about Davis, but she's made her choice to protect Davis. Sure, she can try and convince herself that she's doing this to protect Clark, but really, wouldn't locking Davis away in the PZ have been the much more sensible option for protecting Clark? As opposed to allowing him to roam the country with only her mortal self to supposedly keep him in check?
Chloe's not stupid, she didn't WANT Davis locked away, and it had nothing to do with thinking Clark would never forgive himself. The fact that she even said that to him was just...wow.
Davis made a calculated decision to switch from murdering Jimmy to murdering Ollie. The key here is that he wasn't DOOMSDAY when he made that decision - he was still Davis Bloom (just really sweaty). To justify that with him simply trying to control the beast is basically saying I'm going to commit murder now, so that I don't murder anyone later. Which is deep in wtf territory.
This really is shining a terrible and revealing light on Chloe. Characters often end up doing things that you might not like - Lois making up the Stiletto story, Lana holding Lionel prisoner, etc. - but just because you don't like it, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
The difference here, as I see it, is I'm not sure how they can ever bring Chloe back from this. Lois was shown to fully regret her actions and learn from them, Lana was shown to admit she was teetering on a dark edge and willfully pulled herself back. Chloe is endangering THE PLANET, not to mention harboring the one creature who can kill Clark. It's too far out there for a comeback, IMO, but I suspect they will try.
And of course, Clark will forgive her, because he's Clark and that's what he does.
I'm almost tempted to check out TWOP just to see if the lemmings are all lined up on the cliff's edge. But, naaah. I'm sure they are somehow going to twist all this into being Clark's fault, or maybe even Lana's. Old habits die hard.
