Another Great episode.
The action scenes were great and I appreciate that we actually had focus on Lois' emotions and not just Clark's which was my biggest worry with this whole cancer storyline.
Loved Jon being in on the action and even punching a guy despite no powers.

Looks like Kryptonian tech can't help. Sam Lane suggests that, and Clark says it can't. Poor Sam then breaks down in tears.
Lois does all she can to get out of treatments. I knew that, once Clark took off to handle that flood, she's be out of there.
Poor Jon. His girlfriend's father was a thief. Nice that he, Jordan, and Nat, took them down and got Jon's truck back.
More drama with the Lang's. Seriously, I could have done without that. Lots more interesting stuff happening.
Another good episode, IMO.

Really really appreciate how the show is handling Lois' cancer. Most shows don't handle it well. Looking forward to seeing more of the journey.
The action was good. I liked the Kryptonite gauntlets.
The highlight went to the kids though, surprising enough. That one solid take of Jon searching for his car in the smokescreen as the mooks were picked off by Jordan and Natalie was cool. Glad Jon got to knock that last mook out on his own, he may not have powers but he can still deliver a haymaker. Looks like the kids are not out of the woods just yet, we shall see.
This season has a strong start.

Another really good episode.
I liked how they addressed the "could they use Kryptonian technology to help Lois" question.
I really enjoyed the emotional moments. Especially when Sam was crying.
Also, Lana with the SLAP! I wonder how this will impact her relationship with Sarah. I wonder if this means Sarah will go live with Kyle

I liked how they handled Lois and the cancer. Her telling all her family and friends first with a phone call to Lucy then Chrissy, The Cushings and her dad.
Clark's nightmare was heartbreaking with the opening of the episode.
S&L may be a superhero show but the emotional and family moments make the show.

What I loved most about this episode is that the writers definitely seemed to have re-captured the "heart" that was missing from season 2 imo.
It was emotional and heartfelt, and I appreciate the attempt to give such a realistic portrayal of how someone who has cancer might react after diagnosis, with Lois struggling with denial and the stress of all the sympathy and what treatment might do to her body.
The scene with the kids rescuing the truck was awesome, loved seeing Jordan's silhouette speed through the smoke, reminded me of back in Supergirl season 3 when Reign was attacking people, almost horror-like. Makes you realize just how helpless an ordinary human would be against any kind of Kryptonian, except in this case its used for good.
I did feel for Kyle this episode, he is obviously struggling with the divorce and Chrissy seems to be his only outlet, whereas Lana is throwing herself into work which culminated in her argument with Sarah, I imagine this separation is about to get quite ugly if Kyle thinks Lana assaulted Sarah and now wants to live with him.
Speaking of Chrissy, loved her scenes with Lois this episode, I really felt her fear when she was trapped in the freezer, this is all new to her whereas Lois has been throwing herself into these situations for years, also poor Chrissy always being around when Lang family drama happens! First she was present at Kyle's apartment when Lana came to hand over the papers, and now she sees the result of the argument between Lana and Sarah. She might want to think twice before getting involved in this lol!

Very good episode.
Thst scene at the end kinda might have sold me on Kyle and Crissy as a couple.
Yes, I know *why* Lana slapped Sara, who was upset and riling her up. BUT the slap wasn't okay. They were both kinda in the wrong there. Messy situation, but I'm curious to see how they handle it.
The fight scene with Jon, Jordan, and Nat was good.
And the big thing: Lois. Showing how she's handling it (or not handling it in this case), and showing how the pressure is getting to her is great. In addition to how everyone in her circle was handling it. I really appreciate how they've handled this so far.
All in all, great episode. I love it when superhero stories focus on the human sides of things.

Nice to read episode 3 was good overall then in terms of balancing out drama and reality with Lois's cancer struggle which the show handles sensibly.
It also feels like Natalie, Jordan, and Jon could start up their own young justice league the way they teamed up together obviously.

The link was a bit slow. But it's up now for me. Well worth the extra day's wait.  Lois telling Chrissy about Superman's real identity last season, really has been the best thing. Chrissy has become such a great character to me. The dreams were awesome and it was great to see the Daily Planet. Everything that pulled my heartstrings with Lois and her cancer. It was so good and everyone acted well. I would've liked to see more from Lois' call to Lucy but I'm sure Lucy might appear in person later this season and we'll see more from her handling it. |

Yeah, Lois is handing it as best she can.
And the fact that Kryptonian tech is useless shows that there will be no quick fix.

So, finally the update was there. Wow, Lois running from treatment which is also understandable and she wants to be treated normally. Clark has his hands full, this time with his wife, yet still Lois and Chrissy got a trail and in trouble but there's Superman to the rescue. Nat, Jordan and Jonathan are a cool trio and work together well. Lana, Kyle and Sarah, well, a complicated relationship with this new situation and when Lana slaps Sarah. Ouch! It's hopefully only a phase but Chrissy and Kyle, definitely NO! Well, hopefully now the treatment can start and Clark's blood there?! I don't like it. |
