Someone has shot John Jones, our favorite Martian, and Clark needs to go undercover to find out the truth. Guess that whole getting by without your powers thing may not have been your best idea after all.
Meanwhile, Tess finds out a dirty little secret…and it’s about her.
The Random:
1. Jesus, is Lana still around? Every time she comes back, Lois goes away. It’s like they can’t stand being in the same place, though on Lois’ end, I guess I can understand why.
2. Another piece from the comic world comes calling as we get our first full appearance of Dr. Emil Hamilton—not to be confused with crazy old Dr. Steven Hamilton that used to assist Lex early on—a doctor who will serve as a physician to the Justice League and their associates.
3. Even as a former cop, this group of police makes my skin crawl. Sure, we watched out for one another, but these guys are just so far off the damn reservation it’s scary. But, still, you have to feel for Danny, having watched his partner killed and trying to get justice while dealing with the peer pressure of his colleagues. Either way, framing Clark was a pretty dick thing to do.

Danny boy, you’ve chosen poorly…

The Awesome:
1. Tess practices martial arts while reciting philosophical creeds. Why? Because she’s that awesome, that’s why. And her little face off with Lana about who’s hiding what about Lex gave a little bite to this one.
2. The revelation that Tess has secretly been Lex’s eyes and ears thanks to electronic implants, even beyond her knowledge, just shows how far Lex’s plans really went and makes Tess question her role in everything.
3. Clark and Ollie do a nice job of setting Danny back on the right path, and the reward is sweeter with his last name turning out to be Turpin, as in Dan Turpin, the hardnosed super cop that goes on to become instrumental in the Metropolis Police Department along with Maggie Sawyer. Nicely played.

“Wow, this is pretty jacked up, even for Lex.”

The WTF?!:
1. John Jones was shot by a fellow cop, so Clark needs a way onto the police force. Given the way they obviously have no background checks, as evidenced by them having a Martian with no past on Earth as a detective, of course Chloe can fake an identity for him on her way out the door. I feel safer already.
2. Seriously, why is Lana a ninja? I mean, really, why? Tess trains daily and she’s the heiress of Lex’s empire and Lana owns her like she’s an old lady. Enough, already, stop the ride, I want to get off.
3. Clark’s name is cleared with the police, but you still have to figure that these guys don’t look like the type to drop grudges and they know his real name so shouldn’t that be cause for some sort of concern, especially given as how he’s going to be a big name reporter for a major media outlet? Nah, not important.

| Apparently, getting onto the MPD is as simple as putting on a uniform and bringing a letter saying you’re cool. No wonder the town’s a mess. |
