Smallville 9:6

This entire episode is basically leading up to Clark and Lois making out at the end.  For reals, this time.  Not a dream or flash to the future, no attempt by Clark to erase it, it just happens.  In the middle of the Daily Planet.  If I worked there, I would be irritated.  Plus y’all know how I feel about Lois anyway, so I am less than thrilled about this.

Realistically speaking, we’ve had something like five seasons to build up to this.  From the moment Lois was introduced, you knew that she and Clark would get together, cuz everyone knows Lois Lane is Superman’s love.  As much as I disliked Lana, I prefer her drama with Clark to Lois being around.

The other plot in this one is Oliver trying to help some girl who fights for money, but also walks the streets.  All I really have to say about this is his recovery was super fast.  Guess all he needed was a fake death scare and he is back on track all the way!

Chloe had a bigger role in this one, and is trying to hack into Tess’ stuff.  I am confused as to why she needs to do this, since Oliver is in charge of Luthorcorp now and you would think he could get whatever Chloe wants.  But whatever.  At the end, we get a meeting of the super hackers, and maybe Chloe has a new friend.

Oh, and Oliver is still in love with Lois.  I dunno why that’s the case, but I guess I’m not a man of Metropolis.

On the whole, this is pretty boring.  However, Clark was funny, for once.  Generally speaking, I don’t really like Clark all that much either.  It’s either the way he’s written, or Tom Welling’s acting, but it’s just not that good.  But I think he said the funniest thing he’s ever said on this show…

Of course I care, I *bought* a new tie!

The context, in my opinion, is basically irrelevant.  Anyway, I’m sure subsequent episodes will be focusing on this new dynamic with Lois.  Bored now!
