Smallville Season 6 Episode 8

This episode is filled with many inaccuracies of basic physics. There are too many to list all of them. But one obvious example is when Jimmy uses his father's ham radio equipment to decode Lex's radio signal from the video surveillance footage on Lex's hard drive. But there's no way a radio frequency would be recorded by a camera that has sensors for video (light) and audio (sound), these sensors would not be capable of recording radio frequency waves, there would be nothing to decode.

When Chloe and Jimmy are on floor 33.1 and Jimmy is examining the wiring he says "Whatever was on this floor wasn't your typical cubical farm. There's enough power pumping in here to light up Metropolis." The irony of the statement is that the wires he is examining are not power lines but are in fact telephone wires, and he's holding enough of them for several phone lines. Your typical cubical farm would likely put those lines to use.

The timing in the final scene is off. Lana leaves Chloe and Jimmy at the office and goes directly to the manor to talk to phantom Lex. Meanwhile Chloe meets with Lionel and some appreciable time passes. But then they arrive only minutes after Lana starts talking to Lex and starts to fight with Bronson. What was Lana doing all the time that Chloe was busy checking blueprints and talking with Lionel?

While Clark is in Seattle, Lana drives to Metropolis. She and Chloe drive back to Lex's manor. Then they both drive back (separately) to Smallville. Then Chloe and Jimmy drive back. At three hours a trip, that's 6-9 hours. During this time, Clark doesn't seem to... do anything. He has super-speed - did it really take him 6-9 hours to wander the docks and stumble across the Kryptonian killer twice?

FM and AM are different frequencies (AM: 530-1600Kilohertz - FM:88-108Megahertz) but specially different forms of modulating (Amplitude x Frequency Modulation) the radio waves to transmit data.

At the beginning, why do the security team come racing in? Bronson can shift through dimensions and there's never any indication they have a sensor that can track him. If they just realized he escaped from the lab in Metropolis, then how does he get so quickly from there to Smallville (three hours away)? Alternately, why did it take them three hours to realize he escaped from a high-security facility?

The Phantom Zone killer throws Clark into a crane. However, the crane is holding up a container and containers are never left suspended unless an operator is present. So there has to be someone in the crane but they're never referenced or given any indication they are witness to Clark displaying super-powers.

When Clark is looking for the killer on the docks, he doesn't use his x-ray vision or super-hearing or super-speed to find the Phantom Zone killer. He just… walks around.
