Screen Grabs

Starting out right away, you'll noticed "LL" entering the room with Lex and then continuing her way up to the walk, photographers clicking away and news paper writers asking questions. Clark instantly perks up when he hears the name "LL" and continues to watch her.

In the dressing room, Lana sets her next run way girl with a dress to model, and no sooner does the girl leave, two more enter. Not wanting to model, but for Lana's necklace--they take Lana and put her into a elevator, rip off her necklace and then push her through the elevator window. She goes down..down..down until Superman swoops up, catches her and then proceeds to stop the women in the elevator.

After they land, Lana says that she was "hoping to see you, Clark". Superman's taken a-back, but Lana later goes on to reveal she knew it was him all along, what with Superman appearing in Metropolis as soon as Clark (and his amazing powers) leaves Smallville. Lex comes down the walkway, asking if shes all right and Superman flys away.

The story on this one was pretty interesting, with Lana playing the snoop after Clark tells her that there's some weapons that Lex is selling to terrorists that he has in a great big "stockpile" somewhere. After more snooping, searching, and Lana getting caught, they arrive in the lead factory, where Lana is presumably going to meet her death. Superman busts through the wall and after a small shuffle with the terrorist, Superman wades through the liquid lead that's threatening Lana's life (who, by this point is standing on a desk, with liquid lead filling up the room around her), and they both zoom out of there.

In the end, this episode was fairly interesting, definitely worth a second watch, but nothing earth shattering--still a fun episode to watch, especially with the whole Lana/Clark thing going on.
