The fat teenager Jodi Melville (Amy Adams) is obsessed to lose weight. She feels reject by most of her schoolfellows with the exception of Pete Ross, who defends her. Near to the Lana Lang's birthday party, Jodi submits herself to a radical diet, eating only vegetable planted in her father's greenhouse, but with soil full of kryptonite. Her body immediately achieves a wonderful shape, but Amy has a huge and uncontrollable starvation and need for fat as the side effect.
"Craving" is another great episode of this excellent TV series. Director Philip Sgriccia, of "Metamorphosis", balances the action with the dramatic situation of Jodi Melville, and the frustrated romance of Clark Kent with Lana Lang, and the result is one of the best episodes up to now. The special effects with the character of Jodi Melville are amazing. I liked the conclusion of this episode, when the original and unique gift of Clark Kent is disclosed. My vote is nine.
Title (Brazil): "Desejo" ("Desire")
