Smallville: Random, Awesome and WTF?! - S9E1: Savior

$

Lois returns, rambling about things that haven’t even happened yet, as Zod begins to assemble an army and Clark continues his training with Jor El after having cut off all his ties with his human side.

Meanwhile there’s a deeper mystery about the voice Tess heard in the orb because now it turns out it wasn’t Zod after all and he’s just as confused as everyone else…

The Random:
1. This officially begins Clark’s phase of being “dark” and dressing like he’s been trapped in The Matrix with a shirt that looks like a child drew it up for him.

2. Well, we already had a few appearances from Tori Spelling, so why not add her 90210 boyfriend, Brian Austin Green, to the mix as John Corben, the man who would become Metallo? 

3. Look at Dr. Hamilton coming through for Chloe, setting up Watchtower in its new location with funds that Ollie left so that she could at least continue doing her thing.

He knows…kung fu.

The Awesome:
1. Clark may not be in touch with his human side anymore, but that doesn’t stop him from pulling off one of his best saves in a while, stopping a train that went off the rails and then signing a nearby wall with his crest so the city knows he’s still out there.

2. The line we’ve been waiting for didn’t take long to arrive as Callum Blue whips out the old, “Kneel before Zod!,” faster than a speeding bullet, not bad considering he and his entourage don’t have any powers as of yet.  But you know what?  They listened to him.

3. Lois finding Ollie in an illegal cagefighting warehouse was cool enough, but Clark having to fight a Kryptonian ninja without his powers thanks to her deciding to even the score with a dose of blue Kryptonite?  That was pretty badass.

“Do I have to say it again?  Kneel!”

The WTF?!:
1. You know, the people on the train are rather composed considering they just saw a woman appear out of nowhere, followed by a second one in a ninja outfit that promptly decided to beat the crap out of the first.  They treated it like they were watching a street performer juggling.  Right.

2. Lois went missing for three weeks, and Chloe didn’t think to try and clue her in on that when she visited her at the hospital, that same hospital where Lois then promptly escaped from.  And Chloe, for some reason, doesn’t seem to care that Lois is nowhere to be found again.  What’s going on here?  Is there a writers’ strike again I wasn’t told about?

3. Is Chloe really getting mad at Clark because he won’t go back in time and save Jimmy, even though she knows full well what that can do to pretty much all of reality as well as what happened last time he did that, ie his dad dying?  It’s like they’re trying to make up for Lana not being around anymore…

“So, I’ve been gone for three weeks and NO ONE has thought
to tell me this until now?”
