Smallville S08 E05 - Commitment


This has to be one of the best Smallville episodes so far.
An episode which really kept me at the edge of my seat during the part where Lois was 'forced' into confessing her true feelings for Clark~ ^_^

The first thing you notice from the clip which I cut is that the entire scenario resembles almost toO much to.. yeap you guessed it.. SAW.
The first time I saw it I was abit "meh..", not another SAW-wannabe, as can be seen in many shows/films nowadays..

But what that scene brought forth and showed mE, completely toOk my mind off this cliche..




Okie, the story goes..
(I will admit, the plot is kinda lame actually.. but what transpired from it is so much more!)


Chloe (Lois' cousin and Clark's best friend) just got engaged to Jimmy.
Soon after, they got kidnapped by this jeweler who obviously had a bad relationship with his ex-wife (ex because he killed her.. no surprise)
His mentally obsessive reason for doing so is that he wants to make sure future couples do no make the same mistake as he did.. having a relationship that was filled with lies etc..


So he kidnaps Chloe & Jimmy and 'puts them to the test'.. which they eventually succeed in.. and were led off the hook.

Meanwhile, Lois and Clark decided to track this guy down to save Chloe & Jimmy.. so what did they do?

- They pretended to be a couple, in hopes of being kidnapped by Mr. Psycho.. which he did -




Just as Clark thought he could easily bash his way through with his super-might (duh)..
The directors decided..

"hmm.. lets make this more interesting and give Mr. Psycho a Krypto-watch.. so that Clarky boy can't do anything.. =D"

.. which I'm glad they did.. coz it only made the story soO much more meaningful~ ^_^


And so, Lois & Clark find themselves staring truth in the face (via a lie-detector lol).. and undergoing the "commitment test"..

.. which as I've mentioned..
forces Lois to confess her true feelings to our dear Clarky~
(which totally surprised him no doubt)


The climatic part to watch out for is at 2:54 onwards till the confession.. ^_^
The suspence and anxiety of just waiting to hear her say "yes", coupled with the intense 'building-up' music, just makes me go, "AWWWW.... ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ ^_^ "




A moment which marks the beginning of their romance.. that ultimately leads to their undeniable love for one another (that happens wayyyyy later in their lives)~
