Tonight was very cute indeed. Clark's still a moron (why go in at night to look at the manuscript when you have an invite to see it in 12 hours? What's going to happen? Bart only stole it to piss you off -- he could have stolen anything in the house). But he looked so happy with Lex and Bart, so much happier than any of the women have made him, and I'm not even at the HoYay yet.
I did
not
like the reciting of all the Flash names. And I'm still irritated by the forcing of Lana into the Kryptonian mythology. She's that lame a character she can't survive on her own without being a love interest or a tool?

Yes. Does she have a character beyond that? There are side characters on
Veronica Mars
who are more developed than she is.
Did anyone else, when Lana mentioned the "twelve hours of her life" she lost, say, "Bitch, please. Sydney lost TWO YEARS!"?
Oh, and did anyone else do about fifteen thousand takes when Martha referred to Clark as being SEVENTEEN? Sometimes I forget how incredibly not seventeen Tom Welling looks.

I did entirely laugh, and wonder what hairline motion that mop of locks is hiding.
Plus, wasn't Clark 15 at the beginning of the series, 3 years ago? Guess all those meteor rocks are warping the time scale, as well as the locals' genes.
Is Lana old enough to be schtupping Coach T without legal repercussions?
Huh. Seems all it takes in Kansas is 16. I want to see more nookie-with-adults, then.
I figured that Clark and the others (still in high school) will be turning 18 this year.

Exactly. And once the alarms are going off, why are you standing there like a deer in headlights instead of super-speeding yourself out the door after Bart?
Steve DeKnight should know better.
With all the reference-dropping, I would have loved one either from Bart about thinking Lex has a cool voice or something about Lex putting words in the Flash's mouth.

I'm thinking the same thing.

Considering that the writers' grasp of spatial relationships has skyscrapers from an East Coast city visible from a small town in Kansas, you expect their handling of time passage to make sense?

Yeah, that was really dumb.

What's the reference there?
My problem with super speed is their reflexes don't seem to match. Or maybe their reflexes aren't amped all the way up unless they're moving at speed. Was Bart coldcocked before he started to turn around? If he can navigate at the speeds he travels at, he should be able to turn any blow into a glancing one, by simply not being there anymore once he feels contact starting.
