"You know how many times
we would goof because there'd be a moment...
well, you guys know about the grabbing-ass thing?
You saw those, like I don't think I regret...no one cares.
I mean, he's my boy, man!
And yeah, we're grabbing ass all the time,
touching each other's butts. It's okay!
We were buddies and sometimes we'd be in a scene
and it's really intense and it's just....
"you're so friggin' handsome!" (as Lex)
"Forget about all my lies...your lies,
let's just live this moment!
Keep it real, brother. Keep it real..."
Michael Rosenbaum

"I think the Clark and Lex relationship
is actually pretty powerful.
The homoerotic undertones
of that relationship
are just mind boggling".
Tom Welling

"When I tell a joke, he's the first person who laughs.
He's there every day, and it takes a lot.
I'll miss moments.
We had some great moments where we laughed until
we cried, and really enjoyed ourselves.
There wasn't a day that went by
when we didn't have at least one good laugh.
Even with a tough episode,
where maybe we didn't like the story
or the director, we somehow made light
of things and laughed”.
Michael Rosenbaum

"Brando who? To me there's only Rosenbaum".
Tom Welling

"That line....I mean, I couldn't do it because...
imagine me, standing there in this giant leather
I want to say something but I'm not going to
and it was 20 pounds and it was, like, purple and I was all
"Ohmigod, where is my career going?
Kneel before Zod!".
You know that line, it was hard not to...
when Tom got on his knees and I had to goof around.
"KNEEL BEFORE ZOD and" (whispers) "suck it!"
I had to say that on camera!
'Cause we're joking around,
two guys fooling around.....(crowd laughs)
Not like that!
Well, when you're comfortable with your sexuality,
you can say whatever the hell you want!
You know? It's just cool."
Michael Rosenbaum

"Well, the thing is, Michael Rosenbaum who plays Lex....
I actually bought him a car for Christmas.
Audience: Aw!
Host: Did you really?
Yes!, but he didn't get me anything!
He says it's back ordered, whatever it is,
but I think he's lying....”
Tom Welling

"The cast and crew, I mean,
they're like family.
I see them more than my own family.
Like Tom....he's like (*adopts gruff Tom-voice*)
"and yes, I will miss you"
'Cause Tom doesn't really say too much.
He's like, you know,
not as emotional as Lex...."
Michael Rosenbaum

"An important tool I learned from Michael
which I seriously will...will always take with me
is the value of off-screen performance.
Michael does a really good job of keeping it fresh for you.
He'll keep the same cues so you're allowed to....
so you know when it's your turn to speak,
especially when you're not listening to
what he's saying, you're just waiting for his last word...
but he keeps it very fresh and interesting.
He'll throw other words at you.
He'll raise his intensity, he'll lower it,
to really help you get a performance out and it's really helpful....
It's an important thing and
I'd like to take this moment to thank you, Michael.
James Marshall (director): That was beautiful.
Michael: I don't know what to say, Tom.
You're welcome, my friend.
Tom: And you completely...
Michael: You will always be a friend.
Tom: You completely deserve that Saturn award.
Michael: Thank you so much.

Q: It must be strange walking around town
when everyone knows you are Superman.
TW:You know what? People barely notice me!
It's always Michael Rosenbaum who gets the attention.
It's that bald head that gets him noticed.
Last night we were staying at a hotel and
I wanted to show Michael the pool,
but it was fenced off and the hotel security guard
just wouldn't let me past.
Then Michael appears and the guard says:
"Oh it's you...cool, go and have a look,
but it's because I love your show ok?"

"One my one day off in Vancouver,
on a rainy, foggy day --no pun intended–
I went and saw 'The Fog.'
When Tom was in the shower scene, I called him.
I go, 'Tom, I'm halfway through your movie, dude.
You look so hot in the shower.'
It was hilarious.
"I'm very supportive. And Tom saw me in 'Sorority Boys'
four times."

Tom: "The craziest thing?
Well, he's just, he's like a five-year-old.
He's always just starting trouble and umm,
but we get him every once in a while.
The other day he had a close up and
he was trying to get out of set real quick
and catch a plane out of town
to go to some party in Vegas with Jerry Bruckheimer.
You know, he lives the high life, Michael.
And just as he's going in for his close up,
for the last shot, the last thing he's gotta do,
he shakes my hand and I'm off camera and
I had a whole hand full of vaseline.
And I just smeared it all through his hand
and up into his arm, and he didn't break
and they said cut and then he freaked out.
And he's screamin' out, and so
who knows what people thought of him
when he got on the plane with a hand
full of vaseline. I'm not sure."

"I'm really sorry. I was back there doing an interview with E!
-which will never air, by the way,-
because my name isn't Tom Welling,-
and I don't have a sexy ass.
Hey, did you guys see that episode last week?
Doesn't he have a great ass?".
Michael Rosenbaum

"Michael brings out a lot of fun in Tom.
Tom has a tendency to get really serious”.
Allison Mack

"The boys definitely play more practical jokes on one another
more than anyone else;
the boys as in Tom and Michael.
And they do it a lot!".
Kristin Kreuk

-”We love the idea of them kissing"
-"Why not?!"
Alfred Gough & Miles Millar

"I'm doing everything I can to get Michael Rosenbaum to come back.
Michael? Please?
You can't have the show without Lex Luthor,
and there's no Lex Luthor to me except Michael.
He is the best"
Tom Welling

”I would love to have Lex back.
Absolutely...
I love Michael
He’s a great guy, fun to work with.
Anybody who knows Michael should tell him he should come back.
We want him back."
Tom Welling

"What do you want to see from Clark in the final season?"
"Clark and Lex. Clark and Lex."
Tom Welling

”We just saw him in the newspaper
[in the season finale dream sequence]
running for president..."
-"Exactly. And whatever we're going to do this year
with Clark being propelled into being Superman,
how do you do that without a Lex Luthor, you know what I mean?
That doesn't make sense to me.
So I hope to see him”.
Tom Welling

"Honestly, I just want to see Lex Luthor again...
I want to see Lex. I want to see him come back.
In the show, he's still alive. He's just not around.
But I want to see Michael and I want to see Lex Luthor.
I want to know how that relationship really turns out…”
Tom Welling

”Because that's the big relationship [clex]
that I believe propelled Clark to become Superman”
Tom Welling

"I definitely want to see Michael Rosenbaum.
I've got to see Lex."
Tom Welling

”Michael, you KNOW what I'm talking about”
Tom Welling

"I have tried a few things with Michael.
I've twisted his arm,
I've taken him to dinner,
I've gotten him drunk...
I've tried to get him to sign papers that he didn't know what they were...
so, I'm trying everything that I can."
Tom Welling

”Yes, he calls me all the time,
takes me out to dinner. I'm like
"Tom's never taken me to dinner before!"
And he's like,
"You're gonna come back!"
after I've had like, six drinks.....Well, we'll see."
Michael Rosenbaum

"So, is there any chance you will return for season 10 the final season?".
“I dont know, Tom has been stalking me
and talks are being had, its not a no,
Lex could come back, crazier things have happend"
Michael Rosenbaum

IGN: "Obviously a lot of people would love to see
Lex Luthor again before the end of the series…"
TW: "I would! I definitely do!"
IGN:"Have you talked to Michael [Rosenbaum] about it?"
TW: "I text him all the time...
I'm directing an episode right now and he was like,
"Hey, what are you doing?"
I go, "Directing. You should be in this episode!"
He's like, "Anything for you".
I'm like, "Ah, go to the airport!"

"A Billionaire and a Farm Boy/Superhero?
Who would have thought?
But when they collided that memorable day two lives changed…forever.
When I first started watching Smallville, not so long ago
I just saw something in this couple that I didn’t see in any other couples
or possible couples...actual feelings.
The most of the possible couples looked like they were forced together
because that’s the way that the Superman comics were written
thought that more people would rather have certain people together.
I really wish that people took the time and took the chance
to see Clark and Lex as a couple;
I mean it was very obvious that they cared about each other
and loved each other.
Despite the secrets and the times
they kept each other at arms length,
I believe that they really did love each other and at the end the
“I love you” was honest and well worth the wait.
They should have stopped over thinking things and
just went with their feelings!
No matter what happens Clex will always be
an important couple to the show and to me”.
Lauren [ocfan27]

"Clex is the reason why SV had me hooked from the beginning…
I never was a Superman fan, in fact, I couldn’t stand him,
maybe because I always thought his life was quite predictable and boring
and never saw anything really exciting in it,
so I was gladly surprised to realize how deeply wrong I had been;
however, I’ve got to clarify that I only find it that way
in this particular version of Clark Kent.
What I think makes this version so special and original
is Clark and Lex’s relationship which is, in my opinion,
the most interesting and well-developed by far,
and also the one that defines the entire show,
I believe they belong together as a couple because
every time they protect one another what they’re really doing is
to prove to the world once again that they’ll never be able to
give up on each other and in my eyes that can’t be any other feeling
but real love. Clark and Lex are also known as
Warrior Angel/Devilicus and Naman/Sageeth not because
they were destined to be “enemies”, but because
they complement/complete/balance mutually.
Each one of them finds in the other what they need
and that’s my definition of soulmates.
Even though their love story doesn’t have a happy Hollywood ending,
it doesn’t make it any less beautiful.
After all, the stories that transcend time
are those with tragic endings, that’s why clex
will always have a very special place in my heart.”

My Perfect Smallville Ending;
by Lauren

The episode opens with Clark sitting on the floor of his loft packing up his belongings, camera pans out we see a
“For Sale” sign on the Kent Farm, back to Clark again he smiling a little as he continues to puts his memories into
poorly constructed cardboard boxes.

He hears someone…“Your football jacket…I remember that”-says Pete as approaches the loft where Clark was.

Cut to “somebody save me” back at the loft, they exchange a few awkward moments and they approach each other,

“Clark…I know what you are thinking…but its time…its time that she knew how I felt”-Pete
“Pete….Chloe’s dead”-Clark
“Your lying to me…again…I don’t need to hear this….I shouldn’t have waited this long but I guess that you already
know that”-Pete
“I regret the moment that we ever became friends, there was always someone else and you know it”-Pete.

Pete leaves the loft and speeds off. Remembering Clark’s comment he stops at the library to check the obituaries
it turns out Clark was right. He rushes to the cemetery and approaches Chloe’s gravestone…Oliver is there….
Pete clears his throat…Oliver jumps a little…they introduce themselves to each other…

“So it’s true…she’s gone…I wish I told her a long time ago how I felt…back when we were in high school”-Pete

“I’m sorry Pete that you didn’t have the time or the chance to tell her…everyone deserves to be able to tell someone
how they felt”-Oliver.

“Did you love her?”-Pete

“No…I only thought I did”-Oliver.

Oliver turns away and starts walking to his car…Pete look back at him and sighs….maybe he really didn’t love her
the way that he once thought that he did.

Cut to Clark in his living room aimlessly flipping through a real estate magazine on his break from packing and
listening to the TV in the back tuning it out until he hears “The Daily Planet…Fire” Clark drops the magazine and
super speeds to the DP…Clark stands outside the smoldering Daily Planet building knowing that there were no
survivors and that there was nothing he could do….he just stands there…helpless for the first time in his life…
while firefighters enter and exit the rumble with no one…he is numb.

Clark’s cell rings, he ignores it…he checks the voicemail there is a garbled message
“Clark…its Oliver…Clark…CLARK! Save me…He’s here….I can’t get away….CLARK!”
Stunned by the message and the possible sounds of gunshots…Clark sped away from the scene to Oliver’s
apartment; blood was coming through the bottom of the locked office door. He bursts in…

”Clark Kent…just in time for round two” “Now don’t cry at his funeral…it will make you look weak”-Lex

“Lex? Weren’t you…aren’t you?”-Clark

“Dead? Nope…..that jerk wanted to kill me so bad…but once again…his plans were foiled”-Lex

“I knew it…and he knew it but he wanted us to think that he killed you, but all this time….where were you?”-Clark

“All in good time Clark…now how’s the Daily Planet coming along?”-Lex

“Lex…it caught on fire I was just there…”-Clark

“You you know Clark…since I’ve been back…I have been misplacing things like crazy…I went to the Daily Planet…
and must have left my matches there”-Lex

“Lex…innocent people were in there…Tess and Lois”-Clark

“I’m sorry Clark but those two were far from innocent and I can’t take you serious when he’s lying here staring
at me and besides…blood is getting on my good shoes”-Lex.


Cut to the sound of ambulances as Clark speeds off back to the Kent Farm…he didn’t want to tell Lex that
he was thinking of moving…in fact he didn’t know if seeing Lex again would change anything.


Clark returned to his packing and was clearly absorbed in it…weeks went by and then months…
he didn’t go to any funerals and the Smallville Police Department were too dumb to catch on to what Lex did.
The for sale sign remained on the front of his childhood home for a long time….he had a couple offers here and
there…he never thought that his mother would give him such an impossible task…it was nearly the end of
December when Clark heard a car pull up in his driveway. He didn’t look outside…he didn’t want to, the doorbell
rings. Clark gets up…sigh as he looks are the sparse Christmas tree practically dying…

“Lex?” he asks…

“Merry Christmas Clark…it’s a little late but…I’m sure you don’t mind”
Lex hands him an envelope as he made his way inside. Clark opens it

“Lex…what are you doing”

“I’m buying your home Clark…I own it so you never have to worry about it again”

“Lex, you didn’t have to...I perfectly fine selling it and finding somewhere else to live”

“Now you don’t have to…Clark…stay as long as you like”

Being free from the farm Clark was able to come and go as he pleased…and as time went by the loneliness set in.


1 Year Later-Flash-forward
Clark saves a woman from her car that just caught on fire….

“Thank you…um….”
“Clark Kent” he says with a smile. Knowing that he didn’t have to live behind a mask anymore…knowing that if
he was going to be a hero than people deserved who was saving their lives.

During that time of saving lives and making changes


Smallville Cemetery-
“Oh, I wish you could be here to see everything I accomplished you would be proud of me that I finally accepted
who I was” Clark said out loud.

“Clark…are you done” Lex asks him.

“Yes….goodbye Chloe…I miss you” Clark said as he smiled and walked quickly past

“Lois Lane, Oliver Queen, and Tess Mercer” barely glancing back he noticed one that seemed all but forgotten…
he cleared the dead brush and snow so he could see the name “Lana Lang”….
Clark shook his head and climbed into the limo with Lex a moving truck is following the limo
because the Penthouse in Metropolis no longer has to wait for them.

My Perfect Smallville Ending;
by Claudia

Outside of the Luthor mansion, it’s past midnight, one week after the Red-Blue Blur and Lex Luthor
joined forces and defeated Darkseid. As anticipated, the news had been filtered like powder through
main newspapers of the world; all of them expressed publicly their admiration for the bravery displayed
by the man who until then had been best-known as the blurred protector of Metropolis. No one scrimped
on praises, they described him as a real “Super- man," whose force and heroism were “out of this world."

In the ample garden of the exclusive castle of Smallville, a gust of wind crosses the shrubs at full speed,
swaying them with smoothness as it rushes by. Inside his study, Lex falls back into old habits, and
seated at his desk, works concentrated on one of his projects, when suddenly the doors are set wide open,
and Clark enters the room.

There is no need to be startled because of the unexpected interruption; Lex knows very well his visitor’s identity.
He simply raises his gaze and for a few seconds observes in silence the person who once had been his best
friend, in fact, the only one he had had in his life, if he were completely honest with himself.
It seemed somewhat absurd to him to realize how a decade had passed from that one first encounter with the
blue of those eyes, and nevertheless in spite of the years but mainly due to his grief it would always be that glance,
the only one in the world with the power sufficient to affect his emotions, the only one capable of demolishing the
barriers that surrounded the darkness of his soul.

However, it was so much more complicated to have to pretend indifference whenever their gazes met,
just like at that moment.

“Clark," Lex says with a bored tone of voice. "As always, there’s still no door to prevent you from breaking into
my property…what brings you here so late? Or should I cut to the chase and ask what villainy did I do this time?"
As he closes his laptop, Lex leans back in his chair, then smiles smugly when notices the confusion in Clark’s face.
"I will not lie to you, seeing you here was the last thing I expected."

Although it had been more than a week since Clark had seen the real Lex again, and not another one of his
so-questionable clones; the reality was that the interaction between the two of them had been limited in its totality
to the construction of a plan of attack against Darkseid; it went without saying that their personal differences could wait.
This time was different, Clark knew that the time for waiting had come to an end.

“Lex… I did not come to fight with you," Clark answers nervously. "I came because we need to talk.”

“And to talk about what exactly?” says a surprised Lex, whose interest had been awakened when he noticed
the confusion in Clark’s voice.

“Eh… about us,” Clark mumbles, and immediately hated himself for sounding so insecure, so unsubtle
and unsophisticated. Such hesitation transported him to a time that seemed so distant, when years ago in that same study
he used to be embarrassed every time his mind became too conscious of Lex’s eyes fixed on him.
It was true: the more things change, the more they stay the same, he thought.

“I was under the impression that there was no more us, Clark.” Lex didn’t like at all the sudden turn in the conversation;
he’d never been fan of surprises, and less of those that concerned Clark. Nevertheless, he distinguished something different
in the attitude of the man standing in front of his desk, something that at the same time was very familiar to him… could it
perhaps be affection, he wondered.

“Lex, it’s for that reason I am here, for us…look, ever since I thought you were dead I haven’t been able to stop thinking about
everything we went through together, not only on the negative things, but also in the good memories… and you know what I realized?”

“That you had lots of free time on your hands?” Lex smiles with open sarcasm.

Clark pauses for a few seconds-. “I realized how wrong I was by taking for granted that you’d always be with me. Even though we weren’t
friends anymore, and in spite of our problems, in my mind I believed we still had enough time to fix them. When I held what I thought
were your ashes, I understood my mistake. For a second, the time stopped and that certainty faded away. I don’t know…
maybe I needed to believe I’d lost you forever to admit to myself how important you are in my life. Now that life has given me a second
chance, I’m not willing to commit the same mistake again.”

"Wow ... this drama worthy of a soap opera is quite new, I hadn’t heard it from you before ... tell me Clark, what am I supposed to do now ...
to get up and give you a hug? Would I make you happy if I’d shed a tear?"

"Please Lex ... put the ironies aside for a moment, we both deserve to have, at least for once, an honest conversation, no more lies or deceit,
would not you agree?"

“You're the one who lied to me over and over again for years, and now you happen to speak of honesty? Do you know even the meaning
of the word? Sorry to break it to you, but at this point it doesn’t suit you, Clark," Lex replies, annoyed.

"Lex, I know I hurt you in the past when I chose not to confide you with my secret and kept lying to you instead. I wish you knew
how sorry I am and how I regret it. If I'm honest, not having faith in what we had was the worst mistake I made in my life. But there is
something you don’t know yet ... how much your friendship meant to me. How hard it was for me to lie to my best friend every time
he asked questions that I didn’t feel prepared to answer yet, and observe how the disappointment and the pain grew little by little
in his eyes." Clark's voice cracks.

"Why are you telling me all this now, Clark?" asks Lex very seriously.

"Because I need you to know that when I lied it was because I was afraid to lose you, because of my own fears and all my insecurities.
I dreaded that if you knew the truth about me, your feelings towards me would change. Then I started to think that your only interest
in me laid in your suspicions about my real origins, and the distrust ended up taking over me. It was not easy for me, Lex, and while
I know it’s not an excuse, it's how I felt."

“No, Clark. I only wanted you to trust me.”

“But I wasn’t ready back then….I wish I had told you.”

“I always knew it.”

“I know.”

“Don’t you think it’s a little late for us, Clark?”

“No… there's nothing that's lost that can't be found again.”

Lex smiled and for the first time the smile reached his gray eyes-

“How can I be certain that you will never give up on me ever again?”

“Because you can never give up on something that means a lot to you, even when you're coming off a losing season…
you keep trying because sometimes you just need a fresh start.”

“Is it one of your super-powers to memorize with accuracy every word everyone’s ever said to you?"

Clark laughed. “Not really…I only remember what interests me.”

"Good. You start to convince me that this could work."

Lex gets up from his chair and walks until stopping a few inches away from Clark. They look at each other without speaking
for a brief moment. Their eyes exposing their true feelings.

"Once you promised me that our friendship would be a legend....you fulfilled it," Clark murmurs.

"A Luthor always keeps his promises".

"Lex ... one more thing, about the I love you that you mentioned in the Arctic...
you should know that I know the feeling quite well."

He didn’t know for sure who made the first move. The certainty is that the next thing he knew was that the remaining distance
between them had narrowed considerably, and that they had wrapped their arms around each other in a hug.


Honesty, Clark thought, was a value that he definitely should start practicing.

The End.

→Now, we’d like to take a brief moment to say a few words to certain someone whose presence has been required way too many times in this thread…
