Factual errors: Jor-El tells Clark that he has to return to the Fortress by sundown or face the consequences. Later, Lex tells Chloe that they're in the Yukon, implying that the Fortress of Solitude is in the Arctic. Since the events of this episode take place in the summer, Clark should have had plenty of time to help out in Smallville - the Arctic enjoys permanent daylight during the summer. more
Quotes:
Clark Kent: [Screaming running around the ruins of the farmhouse] Mom! Dad!
Lex Luthor: [Lex enters] Clark. Thank God you're okay.
Clark Kent: Where's my mom and dad?
Lex Luthor: At the hospital. Your mom has a concussion and a broken leg but she's gonna be fine.
Clark Kent: What about Lana?
Lex Luthor: Lana's safe. It's Chloe I'm worried about. She was with me in the cave when the meteors hit and I was knocked unconscious and when I came to she was gone.
Clark Kent: She must have escaped while you were unconscious.
Lex Luthor: Or someone helped her out.
Clark Kent: Lex how could I've...
Lex Luthor: When I was down in the cave there was a light brighter than anything I've ever seen... and I could of sworn I saw you standing right in its epicenter.

Losing the Abilities and Revelations, 29 April 2007
8/10
Author: Claudio Carvalho from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Together with the meteor shower, two evil super powerful Kryptonians beings, Aethyr and Nam-Ek, arrive in Smallville looking for Kal-El. Clark Kent is transported with Chloe from the Kawatche caves to the Artic and the Fortress of Solitude is built in the ice. Jor-El begins to educate Clark, but when he sees Chloes needing help, Clark stops the class and promises Jor-El to return until the sunset. Chloe discloses to Clark that she knows his secret. Lois Lane helps Jonathan to rescue Martha from the debris of their house. Lana lures Aethyr and Nam-Ek, and Clark arrives just in time in the Luthor's mansion to save Lana and trap the Kryptonians in the Ghost Zone, but Jor-El removes his abilities to punish Kal-El for not committing with his promise.

"Arrival" is a great conclusion for the last episode of the Fourth Season. Clark Kent, without his powers, finally confess his love to Lana. Chloe reveals that she knows his secret and Luthor steals the alien spacecraft. The beginning of the Fifth Season is promising. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): "Chegada" ("Arrival")
