If Helen disappeared because she set Lex up and got out, that betrayal could push him toward evilatude.

Can I just mention I find it very disturbing to wander in here and find you all talking about me? :)

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty
I have this whole theory worked out where Helen, on the road to Metropolis, was taken over by some evil-mind control type person, possibly Lionel or Jor-El (who's motivation would be that he thought Lex was turning Clark to the dark-hey-let's-blow-up-a-space-ship-side) and a helicopter (possibly Lionel's) will come and rescue her from the plane crash, t mild spoilers ahead, with large dose of silliness leaving Lex alone to become attractively bitter on his desert island, only he'll be resuced by Clark in a colourful, big, and very gay dramatic rescue scene, involving wet t-shirt wearing and many super-strength special effects, and then they'll go back to Metropolis together and have lots of fun wild nights out on the town-- in the process of which they discover pink kryptonite, which you can all make your own intelligent guesses about (or read practically any piece of Clex NC-17 fanfic for ideas).
Only, like so many of the things I really want to see on Smallville, it's sadly unlikely to happen.

It's a remora, dimwit.
Helen - just imagine what it's like for Dawn when she reads the Buffy discussions.

Ouch! I don't think we have any Rileys or Bens amongst active posters, do we? (Which may not be a coincidence...)

BWAH! It takes some getting used to. I've hated my name for so long that the whine and "getout, GetOut, GETOUT" just added to it.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Hee. From a Q&A with Michael Shanks. (Beware SG-1 S7 spoilers, if you follow the link.)
Q: I was wondering, after seeing Menace where you get attached to a robot, and the fact that you just got married to a robot... Do you have this thing about robots?
A: [laughs] Yes. I have every episode of Dr. Who.
Dude, I so do not need to hear about anyone's Dalek fetish.

Bah!
We loved it in season 6 when you kept coming back as different characters, but what the hell was with that cream jumper?
[Laughs] We had a big discussion about that. It was a running discussion when Daniel first shows up in Abyss and he’s wearing the cream coloured sweater and he was, I was wearing like loafers so there was a running gag that Jack and Daniel were having a bit of an off-camera thing going on. There was a running gag about this is actually Jack’s fancy of Daniel coming to him. We thought it did get a little old as time went on, it was nice to change and give him a different kind of ascended wardrobe. All the ascended people wear earth tones, apparently.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, bless.
