Episode 3.13 What Kills You Only Makes You Stronger S3 final

[Melinda Halliwell]

That is one way to write out Sam Tim which as you say would send a message to Clark and Lois that Lex isn't messing around obviously.

Chrissy having her baby off-screen is a way to have her and Kyle be gone but come back as regulars also then.

And if John and Nat move to Metropolis they can be called on to help out occasionally with situations like Lex coming up before heading back home subsequently.

[Squad 51]

Oh wow, what a final.

So, Gretchen was a long plan of Luthor to take all persons out close to Lois. Nice he took Sam Lane at first. And the change of Bizarro was really scary - and well, the fight between him and Superman. Well, good they decided to move this to the moon.

Oh boy, Lana and John Henry as well as Chrissy and Kyle and a baby. This tops everything and all kids are also involved. Jesus, more complicated relationship and some are moved to Metropolis, obviously. Let's see how it goes next season then.

This I'd like to really know.

I loved it!

A bit bummed about the cliffhanger but at least we got another season.

So Gretchen had been working on this plan to get Sam for likely weeks. Gretchen is always so sneaky in any version the character is used. She's so loyal to Lex.

So I guess that's it for Sam. And if he's killed off, chances are they don't even have the budget for Lucy to come to the funeral. I suspect they'll skip the funeral being seen.

So much going on. Chrissy/Kyle engaged with a baby on the way. Didn't expect that.

[Tim]

I can see why Clark took the battle to the Moon.  No chance of innocent people getting hurt (or killed) there.

So I guess that's it for Sam. And if he's killed off, chances are they don't even have the budget for Lucy to come to the funeral. I suspect they'll skip the funeral being seen.

We could see Clark, Lois, and the boys at the graveside.   As for Lucy, surely they will have money for guest stars. 

We'll see.

The only thing I can't get past this season is Lex - do the writers really expect us to believe that LEX LUTHOR was imprisoned for 17 years? I feel like Lex - who is a mastermind criminal genius would have found a way out long before then, some loophole to exploit. Seems a bit odd to me especially considering how easy it was for him to gain control over the whole prison.

[Tim]

You could ask the same question of the Jon Cryer version.  He was in prison, when we first see him in S4 of Supergirl, but that didn't stop him from more or less controlling much of the events of that season (even the U.S. President was one of his mooks).

So it's not unbelievable as it seems.

[Melinda Halliwell]

I'm sure if producers of both shows were asked that question or the actors playing Lex themselves they'd all have some explanation as to why Lex didn't get out of prison earlier than expected.

I'm not sure the Crisis event would be something used though then.

[Tim]

Could be, I guess.
