SV: Promise

[attolia]

Stuff I liked:

The old devious Lionel is back!

Lana setting up Chloe so she could find out about Clark.

Lex's first personal murder, but even then the final blow wasn't intentional.

No Lois!

The Lionel/Lex interaction would have worked better 3 years ago. Lex should be more competent relative to Lionel now than he was shown to be, but then they have jerked Lex's and Lionel's characterizations around for three years so ...


Stuff I didn't like:

The jumping around in time, leading to

Annoying repeated scenes. Could they at least have only repeated enough to place it in context.

Lex barely reacted when he saw Clark at the end before getting in the limo. He should have been giving him an "I win" smile, or something.

Lana has made Lex stupid.

The possibility that this still isn't the end of the clana.

The preview for next week. I hate fight club stories (Combat was my least favorite Torchwood episode). Besides, didn't they already do a WWF/zoner episode?
