SMALLVILLE HIGH : CAREER DAY(1988)
Director : John Hughes
Story: In the final film in John Hughes's Smallville High Trilogy , It's senior year ,and the class of 1988 is looking forward to their future after graduation. In the midst of the coming excitement, 18 year old Clark is filled with anxiety about what he should do with the rest of his life. Johnathan wants him to stay on the farm , while Clark wants to see the world, yet with no career goals. This has caused the first major rift in the relationship between the two of them.
All the while, Jor-El's hologram tells Clark he has a entirely different purpose all together, as the Hologram finally begins to deconstruct how the Kryptonian race ended.
Lex meanwhile is in a dark place after the last film. After catching Clark and Lana kissing, and being alienated by his overbearing father, Lex begins to turn to his deadly experiments and to the darkside. Unfortunately he finds solace and approval by bad girl out Eve , who's in love with the tortured Genius, and he finds a helping hand in the slacker goofball Otis, who will do anything Lex tells him to do.
Career Day has arrived , and each senior is required to spend the day with a representative featured at the event. Featured at the event are White House correspondent Perry White from the Daily Planet, Professor Emil Hamilton a scientist at Star Labs, and an elusive 18 year old rich kid name Bruce who represents Wayne Enterprises.
Clark is assigned to spend the day with Mr. White , but much to Clark chagrin, he has to contend with Mr. White sharp tongued and suspicious 20 year old intern named Lois.
Meanwhile, Lana and Clark's growing attraction is complicated when Pete Ross has admits to Lana that he's always had a crush on her. Pete reveals he's always wanted to tell her but never found the right time since she always had a boyfriend before he could make a move.
Lana and Pete are set to meet with the mysterious young Bruce, but he's seemingly avoiding them, which gives Lana and Pete time to talk about their future's and how they feel about the quadrangle they're in with Clark and Lex.
Lex , on the other hand, wants to Spend the day with Emil Hamilton, determined to get a job at Star Labs and become a self made man, who's power will one day rival Lionel Luthor's.

This accident will shape Lex's future forever and send Clark and Lex down a path that will shape both of their destiny's.
