Smallville: Random, Awesome and WTF?! - S3E04: Slumber

$

Clark’s dreams are invaded by some cute girl he’s never seen before. But they feel so real.

Think Nightmare on Elm Street if written by a 15 year old boy. Ironically, the girl playing Sara would go on to costar in Freddy Vs. Jason years later…

The Random:
1. Clark asks how he can dream about some girl he’s never met before. It’s easy. I dream about Natalie Portman fairly regularly…

2. Clark dreams about skinny dipping with Lana…and never gets any. Man, even this dude’s dreams are c-blocking him.

3. Yay! It’s been a while since someone in Smallville totaled a truck and, boy, did Clark wreck on something fierce.


Clark, if you’re not scoring in your dreams,
you’re doing it wrong.

The Awesome:
1. Clark’s dreamscape would make a psychiatrist a fortune between the sexual dreams about Lana, driving a huge truck, and having Lex tell him that he’d have been glad to be his confidant.

2. The fights against the Traveler are really well done, adding a good creepy factor to the episode and giving Clark a battle he can’t easily win.

3. The revelation of what Sara’s uncle is doing to her is the type of Lifetime movie moment that somehow makes this whole episode work and is just plain evil.

Not bad for a bad guy looking like a cross between Mumm-Ra and the Time Trapper.

The WTF?!:
1. Sara’s uncle seems to have no problem showing off his niece to two total strangers asking weird questions and doesn’t even balk when Clark brings her flowers and asks to sit alone with her. While she’s unconscious. And although he’s never met her. Wow.

2. So the Kents and Lana find Clark’s truck upside down and Clark out cold and Lana seems to have no issues with them telling her not to call an ambulance because “he just hit his head.” Um, that’s exactly when you should call a damn ambulance.

3. Lana’s master plan is to go alone into Uncle Crazy’s house and fling accusations without letting anyone know where she’s gone or calling the cops. Naturally, she’s drugged and kidnapped. How she’s survived this long is some sort of Tebow miracle.

“Don’t feel awkward, Clark. Some of my best relationships
began in comas…
