Amazing. Simply amazing. I love it when a TV show can surprise me. What an ending. What a stunning ending.

Once again, John Glover's acting was unsurpassed and my admiration for him knows no bounds. I loved the various lines equating Lionel with the devil, like his comment to Dr. Tang: "Your government doesn't have much use for womeh who have consorted with the devils of western capitalism."

I like the way Lex and Clark work together here - and I'd like to see more warmth between them, but what we have is fun: trust in each other in an edgy situation. I liked the way Lex can't say "no" to Clark when he says "please", and the way Clark insisted Lex was innocent. I liked the new set of Metropolis cops and the involvement of the FBI. I liked the temporal anomaly - which of the writers recently watched Frequency?

Lots of inclusion of Lana, but the plot had me gripped so I didn't care, especially since there was no pining or whining going on between her and Clark.

I imagine we've seen the last of Adam, at least for a long while. I feel vindicated in my insistance that he was a good guy. And it was fun, I admit, to see him shoot Lana!

Smallville is such an odd show. Such a contrast between the good episodes and the bad, between the generally 'blah' episodes like last week's and the true suspense this week.
