Finally, there's something worthing calling Lex a villain over. Cloning your dead brother and murdering one of the failed clones who threatens to expose the cloning secret is something I can get on board with. It's a scheme that's perfect for Lex. It's a somewhat well-intentioned plan, but he's a complete sociopath in the means by which he accomplishes it. Lex could be the best character on this show if they gave more stories like this cloning story. I know, 33.1 and Lana's fake pregnancy were on par with the cloning story. But those stories didn't feel as fleshed out or integral to the rest of the story as this cloning story is already turning out to be.
Unfortunately, it's only the audience and Grant Gabriel, and somewhat Lois, who actually learn about Lex's clone experiments. So I'm still going to be mad every time someone yells at Lex for being evil when they don't have any reason to think he's evil. As far as they know he's reformed! What do they know? They know nothing. But at least I'll know he's evil, and maybe that'll make it better.
Chloe is still upset about her meteor power. That storyline is getting extremely tedious. Her meteor power is the power to HEAL PEOPLE. How could that power possibly corrupt a person? Does she really think she's going to go crazy and dig up Hitler's grave and heal him back to life or something? I would understand Chloe being upset if her meteor power was death-touch like Rogue from X-Men, or fire eyes, or the ability to force people to tell the truth (which she loved, let's not forget) but not mystical healing. Never mystical healing.
And in the last episode Jor-El promised consequences for Clark's constant refusal to take Jor- El's advice. We had to wait until the end of the episode to find out what those "consequences" were. Apparently, the consequence Jor-El had in mind was freezing Clark in ice and unleashing Bizarro Superman. Jor-El's advice is usually solid, but his actions haven't always made a lot of sense. Jor-El doesn't really seem to be all there on this one. What is he hoping this will accomplish?
