yes, they prolly started locking their doors once they came home and found the door ripped off from Zor-El

lol, probably. also once they got clark they probably cared more.

Spike it up

Why oh why did they feel the need to turn the story about the house of El and Krypton into a soap opera? WHY?
Zor-El is all grabby and lusting after his brother's wife, and cloning her (Enough with the cloning. Seriously!). The wife is busy calling him delusional and leaving evidence of her visit in one of the easiest places where they could be discovered. And Jor-El is busy creating Brainiac. The hell AlMiles? Find a new story. Not everything has to be a cheesy love triangle!
Guh, I'm so disappointed that they wasted Helen Slater on crap like this.

Clark was all weird. In Bizarro's clothes.

Kara could not have been more obvious. She might as well tattooed "I'm an alien, capture me!" on her forehead. *le sigh*

I did like her last scene with Jimmy. But they are pushing that relationship too fast.

Chloe was basically a tool in this episode. They just used her to recite info everyone needed. And to discover Lana's foundation.
I did enjoy how she saw through Lana's lies right away.

Lana is still lying left and right, and I hope someone smacks her soon. Stop talking about your divorce settlement - you stole that money.

Lionel is back to playing a good guy. Shut up Lionel, with your holier-than-thou attitude. You have no right. Lex totally pwned him with the comment about how he learned how to treat women thanks to watching Lionel with Lillian.

Lex was pretty much the only likable character throughout the episode. He seemed concerned about Kara, he didn't get pissed when Clark barged in and accused him, he stood up for himself when Lionel started with his little speech.
Seriously Smallville, is this the best you can do - turning the "villain of the story" into the most sympathetic character?

And again - what the hell was up with Clark? First he's giving on this weird vibe. And then he ends up being a poor schmuck - telling Lana everything and showing her the crystal when some spooky music ends the episode. Just hope this doesn't come back to bite you in the ass later Clark, Lana isn't the most trustworthy person.

I know Zor-El looked like some cartoonish soap opera cliché, but if he'd be so kind and stop by at my place to erase my memory of this episode with that crystal with the "S" symbol I would be very grateful!

Spike it up

Well MM was right - Zor-El was a bad guy. But Clark should have trusted Kara, and assume that maybe she didn't know anything about it (like she didn't).
And not only for Lana's story...
It was good to see Helen.
And she still looks stunning.

BTW, hey, welcome to the board.
That was my favourite scene as well.
It also took me a moment to figure out why Lionel looks so different, before I realized it's the hair.
I agree! That dress was smokin.
At least the episode was pretty.
It wouldn't surprise me if they didn't lock their doors, everyone has always just walk in without any problems.
It's almost as bad as Lex's mansion.

I like the episode, things are moving fast. Helen Slater was great.

, yeah it seems like no one in that town locks their doors, must be something in the air.

And what is with all these portals to Earth from Krypton? I'm surprised that the entire population of Krypton didn't survive by just stepping through a portal and starting a farm on Earth.

Plus I've been saying this for years, perhaps Lex becomes evil because of brain damage caused by all the bumps on his head over the years.

JediBlastoise

well in the beginning of Lara, they said that Jor-el sealed all the portals so that Zod and the others couldn't escape, which was why she had to travel by ship.

Saw the episode and it was awesome! So much stuff going on, so much to process.

First off, gotta love Kara- using her charms on that lab tech guy, using her abilities on Clark. She's an over all bad girl (and I mean that in a good way).

It was so cool to see them go back to the memory stuff that had been used a long time ago and how they made it better. I'm glad Clark got to see his mother.

And how sweet was it that an Ex-Supergirl got to have scenes with the present Supergirl!!!!

So much for Clark lying to Lionel about Kara since Lionel found out whose side of the family she was really on.

What the heck is really going on with Lana? We know she's using Lex's money for secret operations but just what are her motives?

Overall great episode!

That is the one thing that got me about this ep. In the end, Clark is all upfront about the picture of his biological mother and the crystal containing her DNA and Lana just stands there knowing that she is not giving him the same in return. Can we say the biggest hypocrite ever? And about that crystal. The fact that Clark ended up with it in the end proves he can be a sly mother when he wants to be.

Otherwise, I liked the backstory that was told and the introduction of Clark's real mother. It's nice to put a face to the name and learn more about what she was really like. It was also nice to see what kind of nut Zor-El really was. At least now Kara has no delusions about who he was.

Overall not a bad ep. The next one should prove to be interesting.

Spike it up

I must admit I felt a bit bad for Clark when she took off and flew away and all he could do was stand there and look in the sky.
Revenge?

That's one of the two biggest problems I have with her character.
