Just re-watched episode 18 "Fragile" no surprises that this is one of my absolute favourite episodes ever. Clark is so sweet with Maddie and I like how he got her to open up to him. This is where Clark shows his maturity, but then he's always been great with kids, though technically speaking, when he was like a brother to Ryan he would only have been a year or two older than him. Martha was right, Jonathan would have been proud of Clark here. It's a shame there weren't more episodes like this, 'cause seeing Clark pro-active and not being all about the Lana drama, especially from all those times he would mope a lot, makes for far more entertaining and interesting episodes. I love that "Fragile" is Tom's directorial debut within the show, it was the perfect episode to display his talents as a director.

[TomsEnough]

Love Fragile Forever!

[livstevi21]

Just re-watched episode 19 "Mercy" I was never a huge fan of this episode but it is actually pretty fantastic. There's no denying that Lionel deserved to receive penance for all his sins, his many, many sins and I liked how it showed how much he truly cared for Martha. Though as Clark guessed, Lionel knew that the gun wasn't loaded, so was it really all for show, to show Martha his gallant side? That he had a chance for redemption? For once, Clark doesn't believe it, despite having always tried to see the best in people. Best scene was when Clark visits Lionel and tells him not to call him "son". For all of Lionel's very few and sparse somewhat "good" points, he should never get to call Clark his son. I felt a pang of sympathy for Lex when Lionel explains what he meant by Clark being a special boy, that he's a son that a father can be proud of. I mean, talk about ouch. Lionel's style of parenting was controversial to say the least, his harsh lessons really never did Lex any favours, despite Lex's good qualities early on. Obviously it was a way to not give away Clark's secret, but Lex knows his father is lying. I liked the elevator save scene, and the way Clark hugs his mum.

[TomsEnough]

Glad you enjoyed this one in your re-watch!

It's the best feeling to enjoy an episode that you didn't like before when you watch it again!

[livstevi21]

I really did enjoy this episode more this time around

[TomsEnough]

^ I am happy to hear that!

[livstevi21]

Just re-watched episode 20 "Fade". There's a lot to enjoy about this episode, but some of it is a bit hit and miss. FOTW in Graham with invisibility powers kinda been done before but I guess his character was different enough to the last one with those powers. I like how Clark saves his life but it turns out he ends up being a hitman and basically a cold blooded killer. Lois with the new TV and video game system "die, die" playing a violent video game is funny I wonder why Graham never said who it was from on his note, he could have said "enjoy, from the guy who you saved in Metropolis the other day" or something like that. He needn't have even signed his name. But he did want to track Clark down, so I guess there's that. But it would have saved the whole Clark thinking it was from Lionel then Chloe suggesting it could have been from Lex - thus Clark going over to the mansion and witnessing Lex and Lana kissing. The scene at the party Graham invited him to was awkward, I love how awkward Clark was with the girl Graham tries to set him up with, but he never pulls away when she kisses him lol he is was kinda into it Then there's the scene where Lois gets out of the shower thinking there's an intruder and opens the door only for it to be Clark. The look on Clark's face and Lois's reaction was priceless I think my favourite scene is when Chloe and Lois find Clark buried in the road and dig him out. I also really enjoy the scene with Martha and Lois, talking about finding the right guy, I love the foreshadowing.

Lana telling Clark that she's seeing Lex, I love how she keeps hitting him with her point of him never being fully honest with her and she doesn't want to be that person. I kinda wanted Clark to tell her he already knew 'cause he saw them kissing, but being the generous man he is lets her tell him on her own terms. Clark's not perfect, he has many of his own faults, but he could have easily told her he knew and he didn't.

[TomsEnough]

^ Glad you enjoyed this one!

I believe Graham is the best looking "Guest Star" in the entire series!

A lot of your points work for me too!

This is just one of my favorites, and I watch it a lot!

Tom did his own stunts in the beginning too!

[livstevi21]

I like that Tom did his own stunts in the beginning of that episode!

Just re-watched episode 21 "Oracle". The real Jonathan would have never told Clark to murder anyone, even Lionel Luthor, so I'll never understand why Clark and Martha didn't get at least a little suspect at the beginning that was never Jonathan's spirit. But I can totally understand Clark's conflict, he has many valid reasons to be angry at Lionel, especially of learning that Lionel was there the night Jonathan died. I like that, despite the differences, Lionel knew Jonathan well enough to know that the real Jonathan would have never ordered Clark to kill him, for once he was in the right. Jor-El using Lionel as his Oracle seems like it's doing Lionel some good. Chloe's hell freezes over line was funny but accurate. It is jarring to see Lionel becoming somewhat of an ally now that he fully knows Clark's secret and is actually being somewhat trustworthy.... Especially after all he had done. Will never forget his evilness in Transference. I do keep wondering why Jor-El chose him as his vessel.

I love how Lex and Lana talk about how they both cared for/didn't want to hurt Clark despite both of them giving Clark frosty receptions. I mean, yeah, maybe Clark shouldn't have rummaged through Lana's stuff in her dorm room, but he makes a valid point that neither of them have no idea what they're getting themselves into, and how truly dangerous it is. Fine double crossed Lex and Lana is going to find out the hard way how dangerous it becomes. Yes, she saw a lot and went through quite the traumatic experience and I understood her obsession to find out about the ship and everything, its kinda hard to un-see it and go back to living like nothing happened.

[TomsEnough]

^ Love "Oracle", especially with Clark's Birthday in this episode!

Agree with your points, Liv!

This is a great penultimate episode!

[livstevi21]

Yeah, I'll always love that opening scene with Martha, Chloe and Lois celebrating Clark's birthday. Lois's rum cake looked interesting I loved her gift to Clark, it showed how she knows him so well "there are times when I think you don't know me at all, then others when you know me better than anyone". Then Jonathan's posthumous gift was so bittersweet and lovely. I wish they celebrated Clark's birthday more often.

Just re-watched the S5 finale, episode 22 "Vessel" pretty epic finale. There's lots to enjoy about this one but I'm not sure if it's my favourite of the season finales. Lana eavesdropping on Clark and Chloe's conversation at the Planet when she was obviously not getting the full story was so dumb. All she heard was Clark saying "If I'm right, I've got to kill Lex". Eavesdropping is so unbecoming. Especially if you then confront that person you've eavesdropped on and berate them without the full story. Mind you, this should have been the perfect time where Clark finally tells her the full story and he didn't. Why exactly? She's admitted to saying she doesn't feel differently about Lex despite witnessing him with new powers, powers that are the same as Clark's. She did have the right to feel that Clark never truly trusted her, even though he did actually trust her once, but then had to reverse time so Lana wouldn't have known that, unless he told her that story too.

The best scenes are after Brainiac affects the computers and all hell breaks loose around Metropolis and all cities around the world. The scene with the car crashing through the Planet, Clark saving Chloe and then the best Chlark kiss out of the whole series, that whole scene is iconic and I love it. The lead up to Zod possessing Lex is all epic, and I liked how well they touched on Clark and Lex's friendship over the years and Lex telling Clark how he kept lying to him and everyone he loved. I love how Clark couldn't kill Lex, but then immediately realises the mistake in throwing the knife at Brainiac, which is how Zod gets released and into Lex. And then Zod trapping Clark in the phantom zone.

The riot scene in Metropolis, I could feel Chloe's fear and I hate how she gets punched and kicked being pulled out of the Luthor limo. When Lana comes running I thought she saw what was happening to Chloe but I guess not 'cause she went straight to the roof to see "Lex" otherwise I would have thought she would have tried to help Chloe.

Oh and almost forgot about the plane scenes with Martha and Lois were great. The plane going down and both of them losing consciousness, it's a wonder how they both survived. I'd forgotten that it was Brainiac flying the plane.

[TomsEnough]

^ Love the Clark & Lois scenes in "Oracle" for sure!

"Vessel" is a very important episode, and is the last episode on The WB network, so it was very important and significant for sure. Despite all of Clark's efforts, he was still duped at the very end and in one word literally TRAPPED!

[livstevi21]

On to S6!

[TomsEnough]

^ Enjoy!
