More secrets

Tonight's Smallville was one of those rare enjoyable episodes. Most of it was pretty lax but the pseudo-confrontation of Clark by Lana about his powers and the is-she-or-isn't-she situation with Chloe were both done pretty darn well. High point: the exchange between Chloe and Clark leading up to the heat-vision use. Low point: more secrets between Lana and Lex; things were going so well earlier in the season with Lana turning bad and Lex sharing dirt and secrets with her. What happened to that? As well, Lex breaking the fourth wall at the very end didn't sit well with me.

Overall, well done writers. It was mostly filler, but the good bits were very good.
