I watched again last night and I had a somewhat similar reaction to Johnathon starting that fight. And I started thinking about his temper and failure to think things through rationally before acting as well. What was he hoping to accomplish - brawling with a heart condition is just not a good idea. And starting a fight while declaring your moral superiority over the other party seems contradictory. I think he would have done better to find out as much as he could about what Lionel was up to and told him to leave. And talked with his family about it and how to deal with whatever.
We really don't know for sure that Johnathon was going to survive the night regardless of Clark's choice to change time. Although we didn't see who it was, didn't he get a call in the 1st time? We just didn't see that play out.
I think we are supposed to think and wonder about the choices Clark makes, but I'm not sure that the decision to save Lana is one of them. I think Johnathon is to blame for his own death and not Clark.
I think two parts would have given them the time to develop the themes and outcomes much better. I think that the 1st time line is some of the best SV I've seen. But it's kind of diminished by how quickly it all got wiped away.
