What's with all the weird platitudes Lionel is spouting to everyone? "In its darkest hour the soul is replenished?" Come on, Lionel, you can do better than that.
Is it just me, or does Lionel seem to be stepping into Jonathan Kent's place (and wouldn't he be horrified?). I mean, platitudes, condemnation of Lex, protection of Clark... and did I see Clark hugging him? Surely I was hallucinating that?
Oh, yeah, how about having Lara visit the Kent farm. Because honestly, ALL OF KRYPTON visited the Kent farm at some point--and soon we will get flashbacks of that, too.
This, I still do not understand in the slightest. How did they all just pop over there, when ... wasn't it in the first scene of the ep where Kara and Zor-El are talking about how it takes three years to get to Earth? Or am I misremembering? WTF?
Also, I'm not liking the Clark lying to Kara/stealing the crystal revelation. It just feels off.
All that makes it sound like I didn't like the episode. I did like some things; I liked Kara & Jimmy, I liked Chloe being smart, and Lana continuing to be morally dubious, and I liked the Lex and Clark scene, and Lex trying to protect Kara. But there was some major weirdness in this episode.
