well, another week of smallville and that means another review. this episode looked like it had so much potential seeing as it was a lex themed episode. it could have been better but i guess it could have been worse.

what happen?

okay this episode starts off with lex at a charity ball. lex is keeping to himself like usual and then a women catches his attention. lex goes over to women and they listen to a mp3 together. wth barely an words spoken they are off to lex’s hotel. they are all over the elevator making out on the way to lex’s room. both lex and the women with no name make it to lex’s room and get it on. in the next scene it is morning and there is a maid knocking on the door and walks into the room and screams and runs out. lex wakes up to find a the bloody dead body of the women he had slept with.

lex is at his mansion talking to his lawyer after being released on five million dollars mail. the lawyer wants to know his side of the story and lex fills her in. she leaves telling lex not to go anywhere or say anything stupid. clark shows up second later and wants to know what happen. lex tells clark that it must be his father out to get him and set him up. clark is kind of disgusted at lex with sleeping with a women who he knows little about especially that lex does not even know her name. lex tells clark to go home and not get involved. then next scene shows lana asleep having a very vivid dream/nightmare about isabelle being burned at the stake. the dream is also very intense and lana keeps seeing the image of a mysterious women who she does not recognize. lana wakes up pretty frightened. 

clark goes to see lionel in prison and at first the meeting is a little awkward for clark. they both sit down and lionel asks about lex. lionel says that lex will not take any of his calls and clark says that lex thinks he is out to get him. lionel insists that he has changed. that he woke up during a prison riot and that he had felt something powerful and pure had been inside him. he later found out the his terminal liver disease had mysterious disappeared, like it was never there. clark wants to know more but then lionel begins talking about lex and the very likely possibility that lex is being set up. lionel talks about lex having patterns in his one night stands. lionel directs clark to look into if dead women’s car and to let him know what he finds. ( the women’s identity is still unknown. )

lana is at the talon and martha informs her that there is a women waiting for her. lana walks over to the woman and is surprised to see that it is the woman from her last dream/nightmare. the women introduces herself as jason’s mother and that she wants to see jason even though he wants nothing to do with her. lana is hesitant to relay the message to Jason and tells lana where she will be staying in smallville. clark goes to chloe to say that he went to go see lionel about lex. clark goes on lionel’s lead and finds the unidentified car that probably belongs to the unidentified woman. chloe does not believe that lionel has changed and clark insists that something has changed him. looking up information about the car they find an address to an owner in metropolis, eve andrews. clark and chloe also find out that one night stands are a habit of lex’s by looking at his legal history in which all the complaints by women were dropped thanks to luthorcorp attorneys. clark superspeeds to the metropolis address and breaks into the house. some of the house walls have pictures and photos of lex like some kind of dedication shrine. ( similar to “shimmer” but larger ) clark is surprised to find lex over there burning some of the photos of himself that the girl had. clark wants to know what lex is doing there burning evidence and lex wants to know what clark is doing there. seconds later there are sirens in the distance and lex realizes that the police have been called. lex turns to clark and asks him to help him.

lex and clark are back at the mansion and clark wants to know what lex was doing destroying evidence. lex insists that he is did not kill her and lex wants to know how he got the address. clark does not say and clark asks how he got the address. lex says that his lawyer got a lead on an address from a lawyer. lex wanted to find out about her and was surprised to find out that she was a stalker but he had never met her before the fund raiser. lex thinks it is his father who is still out to get him. lionel knew all about lex’s history with stalkers and disgruntled women from the luthorcorp legal database. lex tells clark not to trust his father even though it appears that he is helping. clark goes to chloe and says that he does not really trust lex or lionel. chloe is able to retrieve a videotape of lex and eve making out in the elevator. chloe tells clark to notice that eve has two diamond earrings when she is stepping onto the elevator, while they are making out on the elevator minutes later she only has one. chloe makes the conclusion that one of the earrings feel while they were making out. then chloe shows clark a picture of the dead women and the police report and it says and show that she was wearing two diamond earrings. they both conclude that lex was with two different women.

lex’s lawyer says that things are not looking good for him. lex is still convinced that it is his father out to get him. his lawyer tells him that the reason that she was stalking him is because they slept together several months ago and she became obsessed. she wants to know how lex did not remember her. lex explains that he does not always catch names or remember faces. clark and chloe try to “reenact” the elevator scene with lex and eve. they both think that the earring feel down an elevator crack. clark uses a combination of telescopic and x ray vision to find the earring all the way at the bottom of the elevator floor shaft. clark goes to lionel with the earring and says that it was a habit of his to send a pair of diamond earrings to a girl that he had spent the night with. lionel says lex is carrying on the tradition. they both conclude that the women in the elevator was a women from lex’s past. lex goes to his lawyer’s office to see what she wanted. he finds her dead and the mp3 from the fund raiser playing nearby. then the sound of a gun clicking makes lex turn around. lex sees one of luthorcorp’s female law firm employees pointing a gun at him. lex wants to know what is going on and the women asks lex if he does not recognize her. she then glocks lex with the handgun and he passes out.
