1.3 Hothead Clark: "The Torch torched. How's that for dramatic irony?" Evil coaches. This was another episode with delusions of "Buffy" as well as Stephen King's "Firestarter." But the hothead title referred to more than just Coach Walt, since there were several other young hotheads. Clark has a serious obsession with football. Jonathan was determined to keep him from playing. And we can see both Clark's and Jonathan's side of this argument. Clark is certainly an honest, dependable young man; he's Superman, for chrissakes. But he doesn't know the extent of his powers yet, and he's still a teenager. It would indeed be very easy for Clark to lose control for a microsecond and actually kill someone. In truth, I'm not sure what side I'm on. But it's obvious that Clark isn't going to let this one go anytime soon. In a parallel domineering father-rebellious son conflict, Lex and Lionel tangled for control of the Smallville crap factory. Lex won this time. How about that. Guess he's not a future supervillain for nothing. Trouble in paradise for Lana, who quit cheerleading because of her principles. She thought that football players cheating to stay on the team was wrong. Whitney gave them a pass, so to speak. How long is she going to stay with this yutz? Bits and pieces: -- Coach Walt was totally insufferable even before he started setting things on fire with his temper. Was he an evil jerk before the K? Do I care? Not really. -- This week's hits: Principal Kwan's car blew up. Clark tossed Coach through a window and then into the bathroom. I think that's four points, if you count the window thing twice. -- Chloe: "Clark Kent is a football player, and Lana Lang is a waitress." Pete: "What's the matter with that?" Chloe: "Nothing. I just want to click my heels and get back to reality." One star, Billie |
