In addition, Lionel gives Lex free airline tickets to take Helen on their honeymoon, with the intent of investigating the caves on his own.
This episode is shocking, revealing, and a great all-around show. Emily's obsession of being with Lana is reminiscent of shape-shifter Tina Greer's obsession with her as seen midway through Season 1 and in one of the first episodes of this season.
