Smallville

After Clark tells Chloe to get some rest she dumps her purse and pulls out her drivers license and a "License to carry stun gun." However, in most states, Kansas included, stun guns and tasers do not require a license or permit. New York and New Jersey are the only states where they are prohibited. However, the state of Illinois does require a permit.

Why wasn't there any follow up therapy visits for Chloe? Once again possession (even if it can't be proven) seems to be a free "Get Out of Jail Free" card in Smallville. Most likely she would be remanded to the psych ward for a full mental evaluation which would then determine her course of treatment.

At the beginning in the hospital, why wasn't Chloe restrained and/or on suicide watch? As far as everyone's concerned she just tried to kill herself, even she's not sure of what happened because her memory is blurred. Yet she's not even supervised, which is even odder considering she's not even in restraints.

In the last act, Lana and Clark are having a talk about how they handled the Chloe situation (Clark breaking Chloe out and Lana going to Lex for help) and Lana says, "We should've come together, that's what couples do." Since when did they get back together? Lana said in "Reckoning" that she need a break from them as a couple.

During the end scene, when both Chloe and Lois are tied down in their chairs, Michael was about to attack Chloe, when all of a sudden, her 'tied-down' hand pops out to zap him with the kryptonite bracelet.

If you look carefully you can see that Lana is sleeping with her clothes on.

In "Lineage" Chloe said her mother left when she was five. Here she says her mother left when she was twelve.

It's extremely unclear how Clark makes the connection between Chloe, Gretchen, and the orderly. He goes to the Daily Planet, looks up a picture of her funeral, spots the orderly in the background, brings up his personnel file and home address with a single click (??), and just decides this particular guy should be investigated? Why?

Lana says to Lex that the doctors helped him when he was at Belle Reve. He smiles and agrees...but there's not much indication they ever helped him, and at least one was working with his father and used experimental devices on Lex to mess up his memories. Does Lex really consider this "help"??

Lex seems to have himself appointed Chloe's legal guardian, authorizing her place of treatment, but...where is Chloe's father? Is Chloe really left to be taken care of (after almost killing herself, or so everyone should believe) by Lois, who doesn't even know that Chloe's mother has a history of mental illness? As far as we know Gabe Sullivan was a fine father, and is still alive...so why isn't he here?

At the end of the episode, when Gretchen's spirit was released, how was Clark able to come back to the room with Chloe and Lois while Chloe was still wearing the Kryptonite bracelet? She was still wearing it on her wrist when it shows the far shot of Clark and Lois coming to, but Clark isn't affected by it at all.

The Talon was a converted flower shop (approximately) 15 years ago when the meteors hit (in the Pilot episode), not a theater. But Michael says his father ran it when it was a theater, which is how he had access and hid the body there. But...when it was a theater it was sometime before the first meteor shower and thus there was no kyrptonite in Smallville for Michael's dad to make the bracelets, much less in quality as Michael claims.

How did MIchael get up to Lois' apartment? It's night, the Talon is closed and certainly locked up. But even if he broke in...wouldn't Lois know he couldn't have gotten up there without breaking in? Is she that calm chatting up guys who break into the cafe she works at?

How could Chloe have a psychiatrist helping her with issues with her mother, a guy who would have contacts with mental hospitals, etc., and to whom she would almost certainly give a verifiable family history since her family has a history of such issues...and yet he doesn't know what happened to her mother?

Since it's a three-hour drive to Metropolis from Smallville, what was Clark doing for the three hours it took Chloe to get to the dorms from his house that he gets there just after her?

When Michael pulls the knife out of his shoulder, you can hear metal "swishing" of the retractable blade in the prop knife extending back out.

Why doesn't the kryptonite affect Clark until he pulls the wall clear with his strength? It can't be that the wall has lead paint or something blocking the radiation...because then he couldn't have used his x-ray vision through it.

Why didn't Clark see the bracelet with the kryptonite when he x-rayed the skeleton? We don't see it in the brief glimpse we get from Clark's point of view, but surely he would have moved his head and eyes the 1/2" down necessary to see as much as possible in the several seconds he just stared.

Martha is once again comfortable and chatty around Lionel. Even ignoring all the stuff Lionel has done in the past four season, in the last episode Clark found out that Lionel had Andrea's mother killed and would certainly have told Martha. So why is she making nice with Lionel?
