Stately Luthor Manor. Lex's most recent African-American henchman (this one, we hope, won't get his guts pulled out) is filling in Lex on some intelligence they have on Lana. They've been bugging every cell and landline, apparently. Sounds pricey! They have a voice-recognition match. "She's in Asia," the guy says. You know, this show never really addressed Lana's ethnicity (as far as we know, her parents were white). It's a little disappointing that they have to avoid the subject. Why go to Shanghai, of all places? Are we supposed to assume that Lana has picked up some of the language? That she can blend in with a crowd (even with a ridiculous blonde wig? It's been seven seasons; I should really stop asking these kinds of questions about a show like this. Lex tells his henchman to prepare the jet for takeoff. Wow, what luck: a guy who specializes in satellite spying and private jet maintenance.
