(not 100% certain)I believe Lana has four more episodes. Check the spoiler thread. __________________

I think Pak's right. I read she's only got 5.

I have heard 4 more episodes also. Kristin Kreuk looked amazing by the way!!! It was awesome seeing her on the show again. She was and always will be one of my favorite characters.
Boo Lois/Clark!!!!! This show needs to end with Lana and Clark together. Just my opinion. __________________

Anyone have ideas who Lana is working for or with? ie) that text message she got that said: Did the archer believe you?

There's some talk about Lana working for Tess.
I personally kinda hope it's for a certain billionare playboy... though the odds of that are extremely slim. __________________

Ok, so I'm rewatching the episode on the CW site and making notes as I go.
'Cloverfield' opening even more annoying on second view. Though, watching that footage, and how it static'd up reminded me of the episode where the guy had Lex trapped in the alternate dimension of his ofice. I have to wonder if that has any connection here. Lex did kill that guy if I remember correctly but Brainiac is pretty resourceful at mimicking meteor abilities. I could just be digging too deep here too.
Chloe's a beautiful bride.
Keeping meteor rock around seems really dumb for Superboy, but they needed it for the later scene I guess. It's not like there still isn't tons of it all over the town but he should probably give that to someone he trusts, like John Jones maybe?
The flower from the first season formal was a nice touch.
Ollie didn't hesitate a second when he thought it was Lex and shot the mannequin straight through the head. I wonder what will happen when and if they do meet up.
They really forced Clark and Lois together all through this episode, didn't they?
Doomsday transformation-nifty stuff. I'm thinking back to project Ares and how they used up Titan's DNA which basically shut down the program. Zod's wife(through Lois possession) said he was just (biological matter I think?) stowed away on Kal-El's ship. I do think there's a big connection there that plays into the closing shot with Lex. I'll get back to this at the end if I spot something.
Lana busting in and inadvertantly interrupting the kiss between Clark and Lois reminded me of the many times Chloe had her heart broken because of that same relationship. The flower from that formal just became more exceptional because of this(Clark left Chloe at the dance to run off and save Lana-in case you missed or forgot this).
Nice moment of closure between Lois and Ollie, even though it's more pushing together of her and Clark.
Nice moment of closure between Clark and Lana too-good job writers. She makes him feel guilty for taking Chloe's memories right after giving the approval for blurring around Metropolis.
Whether it's a plane crash or just the reception, weddings just never end happily on this show...
Lois 'Why did it have to happen to her? Why do these terrible things have to keep happening around us?'
Heartbreaking. First Lana makes him feel guilty for robbing Chloe's memories of the real him and now he gets a fresh new dose of what looks like that old self imposed guilt about the meteor showers wrecking lives.
Poor Chloe, yet again...
Now we have that last shot. It looks like Lex is hooked up to Cerebro almost. How on earth does he have the footage from the dead kid's camera? I'm thinking to the scene where Clark visits Ollie with the computer and the other guy on the plane(who was that guy by the way?) uses wi-fi to download the hard drive. Apparently digital media travels the same way. I'm thinking maybe Tess is alot more than meets the eye here for one. His lack of mobility tells me she probably planted that note for Ollie as well as was probably the person who asked Lana about the archer. I'm thinking equipment isn't being found at those sites by Ollie and gang because Lex somehow doesn't need physical equipment to do the wi-fi trick. I'm thinking Tess was the one who found and hid Lex in the first place, hooking him up to that contraption. I'm thinking Tess might be Brainiac this whole time.
I did finally hear the song this time-yay me. I think someone posted it but the CW was nice enough to show the song was by Vast 'Don't take your love from me'.
A creative YouTube poster named hristin4e made this vid for the song and shows the lyrics with it. For you Aero and the individual who posted the info earlier(sorry I forgot who). There's a number of posts that just copy the end of the show. This seemed better.

Kudos on the analysis Pak.
Quote: It looks like Lex is hooked up to Cerebro almost.
I sure as hell hope not; a 12th level criminal intellectic hooked up to cerebro does not bode well, so says my tea leaves.
As for Tess being Brainiac? I would never have thought of that but the theory does makes sense. I only see one possible flaw but it could quickly be over-ruled. I think the majority of his attention is on Chloe and destoying/siezing control of the fortress and directing Doomsday. Still, he is a computer so who knows?
As for the song it was me who found it. XD But thanks for the search, 'priciate it. __________________

Someone who's read the comics would know about Lex 'hooking up' with Brainiac. I remember it from the Justice League cartoons myself. It wasn't pretty for anyone, even the other villains. Lex's mind in the Flash's body almost destroyed the space station singlehandedly too.(now I have to watch those again.....)

Lex would do this to weaken Clark for the kill or just to try and bend him to his will.
Brainiac would do this as an exercise in survival of the fittest.
Tess, if she's actually just a cold blooded ruthless human, would do this for an experiment, amusement or both.
--------------------------------------------
I had another thought after I finished all that and logged off before. Wouldn't it be something if Tess was a Lana clone from the Ares program too, and turned into a female version of Doomsday? (never happen, but I think it would be fascinating to watch those two tear up the town, literally-pray they don't do a 'love' scene) __________________

Buffet for thought.

That kind of bothered me about Oliver. Just doesn't seem like something a superhero would do. Besides, what made him so sure that was Lex? It could have been just another guy standing up there.

I think its Lex.

I hate to be a buzz killer, but...
Question: At the end of "Bride" episode of Smallville we see someone I'm presuming is Lex. Will Michael Rosenbaum be making his return to Smallville anytime soon? -- Gilles
Ausiello: Okay, I have to choose my words carefully here: There is no deal…currently in place…for Michael Rosenbaum to…return...to Smallville.
No, that was the character Lex by all appearances, just not played by Michael Rosenbaum. __________________

But then what was the point of hinting that he was still around and up to something? If he still is a villain, they can't avoid showing his face forever. I don't know where they're going with us.
