Exodus- spoilers inside  
First of all..this episode truly rocked!



Recap:
Let's see if I get it together. Jor-El speaks to Clark through the ship (the effect rocked!!). Tells him he has to do what he says. Clark tells him he doesn't want to do that cos he's happy were he is but Krypton Daddy has other plans and tells him to make up his mind till next night.

Lex confesses to Helen about stealing the blood sample. She cannot forgive him and leaves. Lex tells Clark the wedding is off after Clark finds out about the caves having been taken over from Lionel. Later Helen comes back. Somewhere in between Lex catches Helen with Lionel. both claim that Lionel tried to make helen call of the wedding again.

Jor-El tells clark to follow his destiny or the people he care about will die (what...no Lex?). Clark comes up with a plan to destroy the ship using the kryptonite key Lionel created.

Since Clark is late for Lex's wedding and Lana comes to tell them that he has to do something rist...they head back home, only to be caught in the wake of the explosion and Martha looses her baby.

Jonathan lectures Clark about thinking about the consequences of his actions and clark, distraught....decides to leave, using the Kryptonite ring in chloes officeto drug himself.

And don't forget poor Lex, one minute he's married..with his wife in the jet sipping champagne, the next he is about to crash int the ocean all alone.....

to be continued............ ack!!!


Thoughts:
I give this a straight a or a- for plot contradictions.

Jor-El is damn cool. Kinda like the fact that this is different from canon. the effect with the ship transforming into earth was damn neat.

I didn't mind the clana...well..I never really did cos i like romance in general. this was one of tom Welling best performances to date. Specially when he stands in that crater and Lana comes. And when he is in the torch office with Pete. All the tension!

Lionel was downright creepy. what does he know!!!

Lex finally does the right thing and gets a kick in the ass.
The minute Helen comes back after breaking it off, I know she was playing the poor guy...well..I suspacted before..way when Lex showed her the obsession chamber.

Clark shoul have waited till after the wedding..but well....it was probably better planning wise...since then logically his parents would not be there....no such luck anyways.

Help me smash Clark? the guy never uses his brains!

Jonathan's reaction is more than understandable, but clark..you just cannot run away. take responibilty!

Did you think that Lionel agreed with Helen about trying to coerce her way too fast??
I suspect she drugged Lex on the plane..with that champagne glass.

And last but not least. chloe. I think she's trying to play Lionel. Otherwise..she had a major character change overnight.

Sure I forgot tons..lol....Pete was good too...but man..he should have stopped clark...or at least btalkedsome sense into him.


side not: superman referrence on Berlin, Berlin. Lomao. superman and Lana versus Superman and lois!

I think it's all about communication....and miscommunication... and the fact that clark seems to be very inept emotionally... either the casue of isolation..or his alienness...

mm---the helen thing..mmm

Well, teenagers are emotionally unstable, constantly undergoing ruthless turmoil at that age, and I think they are making him normal in that respect--how many teens do not feel isolated or alienated, and that's without being from another planet! :)

And yes, all of this brings fanfic thoughts! In fact, it could cause a creative overload, which may explain the burst of activity in my brain as well as others :)

No kidding. Although I think with clark being clark...that's extra turmoil!
