Immortal Begrudged

The Barnness of WhatDidWeLearnThisWeekitude. Clark is still working on that ancient broken tractor. In his toolbox, he finds an old picture of Lana wearing her horse-riding gear. She looks about twelve. Clark dusts it off and smiles. We hear a loud whoosh. Martian Manhunter is standing there. Clark asks what he did with Knox. "Your father and I had a 'don't ask, don't tell' policy when it came to crime and punishment," says MM. Wow, I wish I hadn't sold my HoYay Meter on eBay last year. I really didn't think we needed it anymore. Anyway, Clark knows all about that policy. Or at least he used to. Clark agrees not to ask questions. Then he breaks the policy. "You didn't kill him, did you?" he asks. Don't ask, don't tell, dude! MM says that you can't kill Knox. He's immortal. MM says that Clark will outlive all the people here who he loves. He says that when those people are gone, Clark still has a destiny to fulfill. He asks if Clark has found the crystal. Clark says he got sidetracked. "What is red-eyes still doing here?" Kara asks. She's standing on the stairs. Kara insists that Martian Manhunter is the one who can't be trusted. He glowers. Kara asks him to tell Clark what he did to her family. "Your father was a traitor," MM says. Kara doesn't believe it. Kara asks who Clark is gonna believe: family or "this Martian Manhunter?" Clark doesn't answer. Kara says she guesses this family reunion is over. She turns and flies out of the loft window, spiraling like a football. Clark blinks.

Commercials. I had no idea football players loved soup so much. It must be, like, their official food and drink.

Kent Farm. The cows are back from their break. In the dining area, Lana is putting pretty flowers into pots. Nice, uh...helping the meteor-infected, there, Lana. Clark enters the room. Lana says she heard the police shut down BCE Clinic and that Curtis Knox went AWOL. She asks if Clark had anything to do with that. Clark says glumly that he was killing his patients and that Chloe's story got her in over her head. Over her chest, too! Lana asks if she's all right. Clark says there's not a lot that can keep her down. Like when you kick her in the teeth over and over again for six seasons? Girl doesn't go down. Lana says they're all lucky (including Chloe) to have someone like Clark in their lives. We should all make Clark pancakes. Lana smiles. Clark's mood darkens. Lana asks what's wrong. Clark reveals that Lex helped him with finding Knox. Lana says Lex must have an ulterior motive. Clark says Lex told him Lana stole $10 million. Lana takes a long time to look worried and tell Clark that Lex is trying to destroy what she and Clark have. Right. Now, about that $10 million...that money can buy a lot of new tractors, you know. Clark gives her the stink-eye. Lana says that money was part of the divorce settlement. (Liar!) Lana adds that she's using that money to help the meteor-infected who've been hurt by LuthorCorp. She asks Clark not to let Lex's lies come between them. But what about Lana's lies? They hug. Lana tells him she'd never hide anything from Clark. But she looks really worried. Clark makes his face hard.
