Was is Barber's Requiem?
(I know that the composer's name began with a B.)
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The music at the end was Mozart's Requiem, I think.
Barber is Samuel Barber, but I'm not familiar with his Requiem, so I don't think I'd have recognized it.
Edit: Actually, I'm not sure Barber even wrote a Requiem.

Er. Not that I've even SEEN season three, but reading spoilers makes me wonder -- did Lionel have his head shaved then? Because Lex could've been making a bad hair joke. Ahem.
I need to buy season 2 DVDs.

I think you're mean and you suck.
That's what they say, PC, that's what they say.
If we could swing it, I'd also like to see Pete and Clarke dead. Then we could just have Lex and Lionel inappropriately brooding at each other.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
shrift: No, that happened at the end.

Nor am I. The crap? I would expect Lex to know these things. Though maybe it was a foresightful joke.

I googled and couldn't find anything. The closest I can come up with is the Barber Agnus Dei, which is Adagio for Strings arranged for a capella chorus. And even the Agnus Dei is a part of the regular Mass. So.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Barber of Seville? Kinda stretching it. The answer is it doesn't exist.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You know, when Lex walked into the jail, I thought "Yay! No inappropriate touching!"
That lasted a couple minutes.
Oh, there was one hell of a GAYLE at the start, when Clark was explaining why he'd kept the secret of Lionel's crime to protect Lex. Some gay porn? Less gay.

That's nothing compared to the GIANT BLOW-UP PHOTOS in the shrine-- The shrine that is supposedly all about Lex, and what he doesn't know about himself....!
I love my gay show.
I mean, seriously, could it *be* any more obvious last night?
