1.5 Cold
Chloe: "What are you, from an ice planet? It's freezing."
So on the one hand, we had Sean the heat-sucking meteor freak as Mr. Freeze in training. On the other, we had Lex playing the super-altruist, fixing Clark up with Lana while simultaneously attempting to throw money at the financially strapped Kents. When Lex takes on a friend, he doesn't fool around, does he? Can I come up with a comparison here, I wonder. Sean too cold, Lex too warm?
Clark, for the first time, abandoned Lana in a social situation in order to rush off and rescue someone (Chloe, who got her first turn at being victim). Lana blows off Superman and dates Whitney because Whitney makes her feel safe. Consider the irony.
Bits and pieces:
-- This episode introduced Chloe's crush on Clark. It had been implied before, but this was where it became painfully obvious.
-- The coolest scene, pun intended, was Chloe with her foot stuck in the rapidly freezing swimming pool. Nice effect there.
Two stars,
Billie
