2. The humanizing supposed to last forever given his destiny.

3. Well, Tess did tell Clark to stop just seeing her as his boss, didn’t she?

4. Inappropriate maybe, but not unrealistic. When you’re hurting, the tendency is to immediately turn to someone, that’s human nature.

5. Sorry, but after what Chloe did to Jimmy in the previous episode, I’d have a few choice words for her, too, if I was him.

6. Jimmy may have been jealous of Clark, but he kind of had a reason to be, didn’t he? Chloe was no saint either about Jimmy’s friendship (when that’s all it was) with Kara.

7. Smallville has always and will always be written that way. Part of its charm.

8. Obviously, Chloe just didn’t want to discuss it with Clark. And who says getting stuck with one knife in the stomach made Davis impervious to being stabbed or cut in *any* location?

9. Wait…Smallville features frequent contrivances? Really? LOL

10. Who says that was a dig against anything. It’s pretty common knowledge that some stupid stories get on the front page. I think you’re reading a bit much into that.

11. Chloe’s always spoken in “Chloeisms” ever since the show began. And she’s always been a bit sarcastic in her deliveries. Why does this suddenly seem out of character?

12. Um…Chloe *is* a woman, you know. Pleas tell me you’re not suggesting that women who want men to read their minds and know what they need without having to ask is something out of the ordinary.

13. She’s just saying that everyone has secrets, even Clark, so that’s no reason to immediately mistrust him because Clark is an example of a good person with secrets.

14. Well, let’s think about this: Lionel we already knew had a journal. And how was Lex NOT ego-maniacal enough to have kept one himself? Wouldn’t you need one to keep track of all the shady things he was involved in? Now, when Lex killed Lionel, he naturally got all of Lionel’s things. And now that Lex is gone, too…well…makes sense to me.

15. The Kents might have been the first people he ran into when he found Lex and time was of the essence. As for the ship, maybe once they had the kid they thought they were after, they didn’t care about it anymore. Technology was never Lionel’s fixation so much as Lex’s. He just wanted the traveler.

16. How do we know it’s only a few days? And how do we know how Clark’s memory works and how far back he remembers? He is an alien after all.

17. He was attached to Clark’s ship…surely he could have absorbed the same knowledge on the trip that Kal-El did, right?

18. Again, I don’t think they’re trying to make him wholly sympathetic.

19. Different angle / been a few years, etc.

20. He mentioned frequent blackouts several times during this season. Losing whole chunks of his life. So it’s possible, yes.

21. Who knows? It was Lionel’s. And if he thought he had the traveler, he might also have known that the meteor rock would control him…or thought so. And who says the box was bought new for Lex’s birthday? He could have been passing down an heirloom.

22. I have to agree that the Judas analogy is odd, but being blunt about a religious analogy is fine by me. I don’t know why this turns so many people off.

23. So what if they have? It’s pretty obvious that the show isn’t in real time, so naturally, there are things we don’t see.

24. Again, maybe they did, we don’t know yet because they haven’t come back to Jimmy.

25. Chloe has *always* used her best (or worst) discretion on when to divulge things that she knows. Again, it’s not exactly out of character.

26. Lex is presumed dead? Again, it’s a Chloeism. Doesn’t make 100% sense, but it sort of does.

27. Surely you’re not arguing that Lionel’s actions – or reasonings for things he done – have always made sense. Who knows what he thought about Davis, the point is once he realized he had the wrong boy, he tossed him aside like garbage – as a Luthor would do.

28. Okay, Lex is Sageeth. Just because the characters offer up a theory doesn’t make it so. Don’t forget, none of them separately have the knowledge that we do from our vantage point.

29. Well, that was his cover story anyway.

30. Again, this show has always had characters say things that make Clark feel guilty in one way or the other, nothing new there.

31. Well, Davis isn’t exactly *supposed* to sound rational, now is he?

32. Chloe may very well sympathize with being a killer while under the influence of a power you can’t control, you know.

33. Who knows how shielded that tank is? That’s like asking why humans can handle plutonium.

34. Again, he’s mentioned blackouts several times.

35. Hmm…can’t answer that for you.

36. Yes, obviously it is. You did see the end of “Hex”, right?

37. Eh, yeah, I guess that was pretty rude, but that’s a pretty off thing to even notice if you ask me.

38. Yeah, but when he was a kid he had a nightmare about it – even though he couldn’t understand *why* he was having that nightmare since he didn’t know about the ship. Makes sense if you ask me.

39. And Chloe has a long history of sympathizing with monsters, the last example of which was taking over The Isis Foundation.

40. There you go. Solved your own problem.

41. “It’s Guylove Between Two Guys!” LOL

42. It’s a human expression, and it also may have just meant to be a bit funny and ironic given who Clark is.

43. We don’t know – they haven’t shown the main floor of The Talon in a long time, so I guess anything’s possible.

44. Obviously, Chloe’s motivations with Davis are the whole mystery going into the end of the season. I wouldn’t profess that it’s martyrdom until I see where it’s going.

45. Well, obviously he is either in love with her or thinks he is, but again, I think these are questions we’ll get answers to later. Must every show be self-contained? Since when are unanswered questions annoyances? Do yourself a favor and don’t ever watch LOST.

46. Not in a million years.

Now, people, I actually do have a life and I really shoulnd’t have done this, but I did for three reasons…

1. People are WAAAAAAY too critical of this show. It is supposed to be FUN, people!! It’s about an alien who landed on Earth and who can shoot “frickin’ laser beams” out of his eyes and blow doors off hinges and leap tall buildings and stop bullets and hear people from three miles away! Can we all just take a step back and stop trying to pick the bones off of a show that is not and has never even attempted to be taken THIS seriously?

2. I wrote my answers to demonstrate that you can see *any* of these things from a completely different point of view if you simply CHOOSE to suspend your disbelief. If you can’t do that, then again, you’re obviously watching the wrong program.

2. Picky freakin’ picky.
