Quotes:
Lionel Luthor:
[a brilliant flash of light wakes Clark and he rises from a pedestal of ice in the Fortress of Solitude and looks around, confused as to how and why he is there, until he looks up and sees Lionel standing above him in the distance] Hello Kal-El.
Clark Kent:
[Confused and amazed] Jor-El?
Lionel Luthor:
[Grasping the lapels of his overcoat] And I'm hoping the time has come when you will call me father.
Clark Kent:
[Perplexed] ... I was... I was just in the hospital. How did you get me here?
Lionel Luthor:
The portal in the cave. When this body was activated it became an oracle of Kryptonian knowledge, a vessel for me to inhabit if ever you should need me. That time was now.
Clark Kent:
Am I dead?
Lionel Luthor:
Your mortal journey is over, yes, but your eminent destiny is far too important to be sacrificed. You will return with all of your natural gifts.
[Steps forward]
Lionel Luthor:
Unfortunately, this rectification does not come without a price.

Much like the episode "Wrath" of Season 7, this episode starts with inappropriate Clark-Lana "action," but is riveting by episode's end. Like his reliable friend Chloe insists, Clark learns that he cannot elude that he his also Kal-El from Krypton and must continue to accept his destiny to help others.
Clark and Lana grow increasingly more comfortable together, since Clark is mortal like her. However, not everything is perfect. A deranged boy named Gabriel Duncan, who graduated with Clark, Lana, Chloe and Pete at Smallville High School, plans to unleash a nuclear missile on the town to rid it of any meteor freaks- which is wrong in of itself, but will also kill many other non-infected, which is the majority of the town. When Chloe and Clark make an attempt to stop Gabriel, Gabriel shoots and kills Clark. However, miraculous events occur. Clark finds himself brought back due to the workings of Jor-El, and with his powers is able to stop the missile.
The scene where Clark stops the missile is INCREDIBLE. It may just be the best scene of the series, if not one of the best. Though the episode starts weakly, that particular end scene, the end of the episode, and the majority of the episode after the first scene, is fantastic.
