Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaCarter gives Lana a phoenix medallion. When Lana first uses the Prometheus suit, she bursts out of the chamber with an orange speed aura, resembling a phoenix rising from the flames.
- GoofsWhen Clark finds the hard drive hidden in the safe and removes it, the cover of the drive has clearly been removed, exposing the reading arm and disks. The internal components of a hard drive are very sensitive and, if opened up needs to be handled in a dust free clean room otherwise a speck of dust or a bit of moisture could ruin the drive. The ISIS room and safe would be covered in dust and debris, yet Chloe manages to link the drive to her computer and accesses the date without a problem or, apparent concern. She even covers the side with the spinning discs with the palm of her hand as she plugs it in, leaving it vulnerable to the static electricity around her body.
- Quotes
Carter Bowfry: I'm not training you to be like someone else. I'm training you to be Lana Lang. To rise from the ashes of your previous life. Stronger, more powerful, fearless. It's time to rise.

Lana should have been gone from the show seasons ago or at least her and Clark should have stayed broken up, when she got with Lex their relationship should have ended then, she literally slept with Clark's enemy and was going to marry him, Clark should have walked away then. Or at the very least after Bizarro but yet again he didn't, and then again this season, they should have left it with actual closure of them moving on maturely but instead YET AGAIN they get back together and the actual love of Clark's life (Lois) is thrown to the curb. The fact they actually tried to turn Clark and Lana into star crossed lovers was ridiculous, the writers just couldn't leave them end their relationship maturely by admitting they weren't supposed to be together, no instead they had to write how they're forced apart, Lois deserved much better than that, thankfully the later seasons do develop it so well that in season 9 or 10 had Lana come back and been able to be with Clark he would not choose her over Lois at all as he has actually found the one he is meant to be with but it still is annoying what they did in season 8, Lana should never have been brought back. Basically Lana and Bizarro were a better couple than Lana and Clark lol. Clark also deserved better than to be rendered pathetic again by Lana Lang.
Lana is probably my least favourite character ever, even the villians on the show are far more likable than her, I really feel like the writers wanted us to hate her, how else can you mess up that badly? Having to sit through her and Clark's insufferable relationship for 7 seasons is painful! Clark can do and does do much better than her. I really wanted to skip these season 8 episodes (which is a shame because first half of season 8 is pretty good especially considering most of the original cast is gone) I just can't handle Lana anymore after binging all the seasons but I forced myself and I'm beyond done. Lana would actually put my off watching the show for a long time again.
This review was kind of all over the place so sorry about that but I'm just about to explode over Lana, I recommend not to binge watch this show, all that Lana at once is not good lol.
