Smallville 9x17 "Checkmate" Episode Discussion

Official Description

Tess (Cassidy Freeman) creates an elaborate hoax in order to kidnap Green Arrow (Justin Hartley), and delivers him to Amanda Waller (guest star Pam Grier), who tells him that that the government is recruiting him to serve his country. However, Green Arrow escapes before they can reveal his identity.

After Oliver brings Clark (Tom Welling) and Chloe (Allison Mack) up to speed, the three investigate and Clark is surprised to find John Jones (guest star Phil Morris) investigating Oliver's kidnapping too. Clark senses that John is keeping information from him.

Oliver and Clark are shocked when Tess reveals that Amanda is after something called "Watchtower." Waller threatens to kill Chloe unless Clark gives her the names and locations of the rest of the Justice League.

Written by John Chisholm
Directed by Tim Scanlan

John Jones was pretty much the only thing about this episode I liked.

I hated this episode. I feel the writers have no clue who Superman is. What he did to Tess, just a little too extreme and very unlike Superman.

Yeah that was the only part of the episode I did not like, how he treated Tess. He brought her to the top of a building and threatened to drop her to get her to reveal information. Not the way Superman would handle it IMO.

Awful episode. The only thing I liked about it was the speech about Clark getting all side to work together ( build a bridge) by John and the red chess piece.
