Yeah, I noticed that too. I'm pretty sure I've seen it pop up at some point in at least one other episode since that awful "Hero" episode. But that's the reality of television: product placement.

It's just unfortunate that they chose to devote an entire episode to chewing gum. I would have been embarrassed to have my name on that episode if I was part of the cast or crew. I honestly can't think of a worse episode of Smallville in the seven years it's been on. There probably is one, but I've thankfully forgotten it.

Major spoiler about the finale from the CW May sweeps write up had this big tidbit....

Spoiler:

In the finale, Lex discovers Clark's secret. And Lionel's not around to make him forget this time...

Spoiler:

If Superman history is to be maintained, a LOT of people are going to need memory wipes. Lois, Clark, Jimmy, Lex, Martha. There's going to be a rest button at some point for Lex to forget. There HAS to be.

[Inspector Hammer!]

Not necessarily in Lex's case, Jason, they could work it to where (i'll spoilerize since it will elude to others what we're talking about)

Spoiler:

Lex is so angry and hell bent on Clark/Superman's destruction that he will keep that info to himself as his arrogance won't allow him to allow others to know as they might try to steal the revenge that he feels is rightfully his and his alone.

^ More spoiler alluding...

Spoiler:

If Superman and Lex become mortal enemies as we see in Supes II and IV, then he would know Clark is a traveler. Coupled with what he knows Superman can do, I'd think he would connect the dots. And he doesn't necessarily need to share it with anyone...just use the information to his advantage. After all, Martha has a political career, Jimmy and Lois are still around. He could get to Clark/Supes...

Ah well, that's why we speculate, right?

That was much better than the "reset button" premise suggested. Probably the second best of the year. Way to go on the direction, Clark!

just fifnshed this ep.
except for the previous ep this season has been a home run.

i thought the alt version was very good.
lex with the glove on, i guess from the kryptonite cancer beginning to appear.

I can understand Lex shooting Clark, and Clark being hit because he didn't expect it, but you think Kara would have super sped and dodged the bullet.

Shit, so I should have actually bothered to watch?

[Patrick Sun]

I could barely make it through tonight's "Lost" episode on my DVR, but tonight's Smallville episode via DVR kept my attention all the way through. It was just fun to see all these nods to the Superman mythos, plus planting the seeds of Clark and Lois, even if Clark is still on the lookout for a cure for Lana.

[Jason_V]

Somehow Kara and Clark don't know the first rule of killing the villain: he ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS comes back at least once, if not twice or three times. You really need to stab, decapitate, electrocute, stone and tear apart a body before you be "sure" the baddie isn't coming back.

Otherwise, very good episode.
