Yeah, I watched it.

Okay, I guess, judging by the gloves Kara was wearing, that Clark finally got some part of blending in through to her. However, that segue/pun/whatever she pulled about the whole playing field/sky bit sucked hard, IMO. Also, that twitch-y, back and forth thing she did with her eyes during it got on my nerves. I did like the whole Brainiac as a bird thing, though.

Speaking of Brainiac; when I hear his voice, I think of Harry Dresden. I guess whatever gets me through the show, right? Given his focus on the bracelet and his insistence that he needed her means that whatever he needs the bracelet for, he needs her to operate it somehow. See, I r smrt!!!

Just a question, Clark says he destroyed Zod. Why am I under the impression, then, that in that episode, he only got rid of him? Maybe I have faulty memory. It occasionally happens.

What can I say about the Lois and Jimmy scenes? Well, they're both idiots, and Jimmy's a horndog. Also, both Jimmy and Lionel, either directly or indirectly, did all of Lois' research for her. Also, Jimmy's turning out to be more of a reporter than her. Hey, if the Chlois option doesn't pan out, maybe we can have Jimmy become ILL!! He'll have to get over his aversion to all things Clark Kent first.

Lex's Lady Minion seems to be in love with him. I'm kinda in love with her for it. She gives us a way to hear what's going on with Lex and helps explain some of what's going on with him. Also, when Lex came out of his flash back, she looked like she was about to say, "I'm sorry, sir, what was that? I was busy staring at your ass." Or, maybe I'm just projecting.

Speaking of flashbacks; the only thing I could really think during them was, "The symbolism was strong with these ones." After all, we have the obvious Oliver with the bow and arrow and where the kids hid. But, we also have mine!Lex play with/controlling a superhero in a blue uniform with a red cape. Guess he's been wanting that for a long time. As for Lionel putting a clip on tie on mini!Lex? I call OOC. Do you agree?

Now Lana. Excuse me for shuddering a minute. The scene with her and Brainiac had me giggling. You wanna know why? All I could picture was them taping that scene with JM going doing that how 'I'm not touching you' thing kids do.

I gotta wonder if Brainiac has to directly hook up to something to drain the power. If so, I can just picture someone catching him at it.

In that last scene, Brainiac looks kinda disappointed in Clark. He also looks like a strung out heroin addict. I'm right there with him. In the disappointment, not the strung out addict bit.

Basically, it was a sucky episode. Not as bad as Promise, but not all that good. I think I was able to get through it because my brother was watching A Few Good Men in the other room.
