Love moments when Superman reveals his identity to a close friend. They're rare but always good. Still don't get why they had Lana not know his identity in the first place, but finally she's in on the Superman job. FINALLY! I'm overjoyed.
Something tells me her family won't find out though, leading to more drama with Sarah and Jordan.
Loved the moments between the boys and their parents, and Jordan Vs. Jon-El.
The Irons were both awesome and amazing.
And the end….WHAT?. It’s interesting and I love a reveal but I don’t know how I feel yet. I'm still processing it.
Grade: A

Another good episode. My favourite part of the episode was the fact that they actually addressed Clark being gone for a day while everyone else on Earth has had 33 days gone by. The Jordan and Jon-el fight scene was just fantastic. Also, David Ramsey has done it again. That last shot right before it went to black was so good. Loved everything about this episode. Just loved!! Once again the episode flew by so fast. I don’t know how I’m going to get through the next month.

I hope they don't keep the drama of Lana knowing but not Sarah/Kyle for to long. The Cushings aren't going anywhere so they have to know at some point. And Lana will have at least some negative reaction so it's interesting to see how Clark/Lois navigate that. In the comics Clark's moral code causes problems and makes him a kind of pain to other heroes at times. He sorta did this with Jon here, he tried to explain but Clark instantly made a negative comment on Candice to shut him down again. It's obvious Jon's combined the idea of Clark's secret protecting the family to him wanting to lie and protect Candice. No Jordan. Really bad timing with the letter thing though I can see why he'd be annoyed Lois talked to Sarah behind his back.
Really cool hero moment vs Jon-El though and he's not wrong when he says the boys are still trying to be on their parents side too. Bizzaro Lana got scared off by two humans....after her wound was healed? Really? LOL

I loved this episode, great follow-up from last week. I did like the boys, Lois and Clark working out the secret and I thought that really worked. I loved the Clark /Jon moments but hope this was To be continued because as great as it was, it still felt unfinished. We have more to come. Clark's expression when he saw Jordan fly, like that felt great as well. I think the episode missed a little at giving Lois and Clark a little moment after Clark being gone for so over a month. But I'm also not going to come for it because I feel like they have had some sweet moments this season while the parenting moments with the boys have been lacking. So I get why they didn't. In terms of Lana finding out. It was a long time coming. I loved how it was Clark who decided but his family that gave him their blessing. I loved that it felt like Superman for All Seasons the comic. Overall, the Cushings were part of the actual plot which was really nice. I do suspect that Sarah finds out by the end of the season but I also feel better about that, that Lana also knows before her. So that when Sarah does, she'll have her Lana to help her through it. Now we wait until May 31st. At least after this break, its the home stretch until the season ends. I'm guessing Lucy is going to play a bigger role in these last episodes, since she's been MIA ever since she got Ally to escape weeks ago. Grade: A

Clark FINALLY tells Lana truth. Dude, what took you so long? This is a trusted friend you've known practically your whole life!
All this talk of revealing the secret, and NO ONE brings up the fact that Kara has already done it. Odd.
Clark is shocked to realize that just over a month has passed on Earth Prime. He was on Bizarro World for only a day.
Loved the fight between Jordan and Jon-El. Jordan: This is for my brother. POW!
John Henry thinks he can close the portal. Well, that would stop any more Bizarro doubles coming through.
Yeah, next week S&L has to give up it's time slot for that dud show, Naomi. Just cancel that thing, CW.

Wow. What an episode. Jordan is a phenomenal actor. Seeing him portray two completely different Jonathan’s is amazing. Great job! I absolutely loved seeing Jordan weaken Jon-El and then beat him in a midair fight! Clark told Lana his secret! This gives new depth to the show that I’m excited to see it. Jordan was straight up going to tell Sarah his secret. Damn. But now Lana will have to keep a secret from Sarah. Though it will be easier for her since it’s not her secret, but still. We'll see.

Loved the episode, this show can seemingly do no wrong.
FINALLY Lana knows the truth, this will hopefully help the Cushings meld into the plot a lot more, especially with Lana being mayor. Feels like its been a long time since we've seen Kyle, though that's probably because of the enormous breaks between episodes.
I must admit I am a little disappointed the two Jonathan's didn't manage to merge. I really wanted to see what that would be like and what the fallout would have been, it doesn't need to be permanent, just wanted to see it happen for a while - mainly so Jon could get a somewhat interesting storyline to play with for a few episodes.
I have a question, how on multiple EARTHS is John Henry Irons still breathing? The man takes a battering nearly every episode! This episode having his head bashed in by bizarro-Lana but somehow he's okay? Is John Henry irons secretly the main villain of the entire show that will be revealed in the final season (hopefully many years from now) as the big boss mastermind behind everything with his God-like invincibility powers? That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

Great episode. Well worth the wait. Family dynamics in a world with Superman. Finally, finally Lana knows and must keep a secret (maybe) from Sarah. Jordan just has terrible timing with his letter what Lois even has suggested. Maybe bringing here the secret out may not have the same effect like it did on the other world. This was just bizarre. Sorry. The Jordan and Jonathan fight was cool. At first playing the weaken one and then striking back. Even flying worked but not under control yet. Thankfully Dad was there to the rescue and looking kinda surprised that his son can fly. So the Irons manage to send bizarre Lana back, even though she was healed by John accidently?! I have a headache. This is going to be interesting. Three weeks break until May 31?! Nuts!!

That's my theory and I'm sticking to it. Yeah, how is he even still alive and walking. That would be quite a twist. If he was, I'd feel bad for his daughter if she didn't know, unless she's in on it too.

This episode was another solid episode, I don't have any complaints.
This episode ended so well. I'm glad we got a cliffhanger that wasn't so dramatic. I mean there's still so much to come out of this and deal with Lana now. But its nice that we ended on a more uplifting note given all the tension lately with the characters.
David really directed this episode well, especially that ending.
Grade: A+

As I said, Lana and Clark have known each other their whole lives. Why it took him this long to reveal the secret to her, I don't know.
Missed opportunity: They could have dropped a reference to Kara's decision to abandon her secret ID. I mean the theme is similar. Of course, Kara doesn't have a wife and kids to worry about.
