> [@ussentinel](#): > > I dunno. As many times as I’ve seen “bad/evil” Clark during this show’s run, I liked seeing bad/evil Lana. Except that Kristin Kreuk, as much of a total babealicious hottie as she is, cannot play evil to save her life. That big sign screaming “ACTING!” flashes across the screen. And I guess this episode did answer the questions of who’s pure and who’s not. Except for Chloe. We still don’t know about her. Not for sure. ---

Not for sure. But didn’t you love her evil laugh? (That was the best. ) ---

Just give me more Chloe In A Corset, and I’ll be happy. Or Chloe Not In A Corset. Either way. ---

I’m _really_ tired of storylines where people aren’t themselves because they’re possessed, or have switched bodies, or are under the influence of red kryptonite, or weird spores, or computerized mind control… Why the hell does that show up in so many series? (How many times did they do something like that on _Star Trek_?) As I recall, it’s a tradition in DC comics that a) magic is real and b) it has power over superheroes, even if they’re invulnerable to everything else. Of course, in this episode it was tied in to the “three stones”, which I gather are Kryptonian artifacts. Man, that planet must have been one freaky-deaky place before it blew up. (I wonder if they’ll ever introduce that Kryptonian city shrunk down and kept in a jar?) So, did the high school kids all have a big sex orgy in the barn? It’s hard to believe those three 17th century witches were content with some lame white-boy dancing in BVD’s. ---

I dunno. I thought that Fiona, when she was bumping and grinding to “Scotty Doesn’t Know”, was about 150X hotter than Lana Lang every was. -lv ---

Ane the Flash. The speedy guy just waved bye-bye and zoomed off. So is this season all about showing off skin? I guess all the characters have hit that 18 year old mark or something. (I’m not complaining really, but, heck, plot matters.) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/smallville-11-10-04-spell-spoilers/274147.md?page=1)
