I feel it is absolutely necessary, for a successful finale, to see Tom in the suit for at least half of the ep. A shirt rip or a 1 min shot of him standing on the DP rooftop or floating with the sun behind him will not cut it. There has been too much build up from the past ten years and too many teases to just give us more of the same and call it an epic finale. With that said, I've never thought about how I would like the last few minutes to go and last night I did. This is what I got...
Clark would defeat Darkseid in a big battle while wearing the suit for the first time. This will be the moment that he reveals himself to the city and everyone is looking up at him in the sky. Some in awe, some cheering, and Clark would then shoot off into the sky before it cuts to a commercial. The next scene would be Clark alone in his barn loft, maybe packing some family photos in picture frames to take with him to his Metropolis apartment that he now shares with his wife Lois. This will be when he sees maybe his old Smallville high yearbooks or just some old objects that have significance to Clark and the Smallville audience to shout out to the beginning of the journey. As the audience is caught up reminiscing with Clark, Martha walks up the stairs with a folded newspaper in her hands. She opens it as she hands it to Clark and says something like "Your father would be so proud." The headline would read something like the one in Homecoming with Lois officially dubbing Clark Superman. He would then have a small conversation with his mother about the road he has taken and the man he turned into. After the talk Martha would reach over to the desk in the loft and pick up the glasses that Clark had started to wear hopefully 3 or 4 episodes prior to the finale and hand them to him. Cut to the DP, a quick one line or two to Lois about his new superhero name. Maybe in the middle of a kiss he hears a disturbance and Lois gives him a knowing smile. Clark heads to the phone booth, elevator, outside or wherever and removes his glasses and THEN we end with a shirt rip into the camera right on the S. Credits
