Storyline

Gabriel Duncan is a deranged teenager who breaks in the control room of a nuclear silo in Smallville, kills the two security guards, and starts the launch sequence to send one missile to destroy Smallville in one hour. He calls his friend Chloe, who is moving to the university, and asks her to leave the town that he wants to destroy because of the population of "meteor freaks." The army does not know which of the sixteen silos might have been broken in by Gabriel. Meanwhile, Clark and Lana sleep together in his room and early in the morning, Lana sneaks out of the house, but Jonathan and Martha see them. When Chloe calls Clark, he plots a simulation of a car accident with Chloe to force Gabriel to disclose his position. When Gabriel meets Chloe, Clark is deadly shot by the insane teenager, dying in the hospital. Suddenly, Lionel Luthor awakes from his catatonic situation in Belle Reve and Clark's body vanishes from the hospital which leads to both meeting at the Kryptonian Fortress of...

Mostly a Fantastic Episode
29 November 2007 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

Much like the episode "Wrath" of Season 7, this episode starts with inappropriate Clark-Lana "action," but is riveting by episode's end. Like his reliable friend Chloe insists, Clark learns that he cannot elude that he his also Kal-El from Krypton and must continue to accept his destiny to help others.

Clark and Lana grow increasingly more comfortable together, since Clark is mortal like her. However, not everything is perfect. A deranged boy named Gabriel Duncan, who graduated with Clark, Lana, Chloe and Pete at Smallville High School, plans to unleash a nuclear missile on the town to rid it of any meteor freaks- which is wrong in of itself, but will also kill many other non-infected, which is the majority of the town. When Chloe and Clark make an attempt to stop Gabriel, Gabriel shoots and kills Clark. However, miraculous events occur. Clark finds himself brought back due to the workings of Jor-El, and with his powers is able to stop the missile.

The scene where Clark stops the missile is INCREDIBLE. It may just be the best scene of the series, if not one of the best. Though the episode starts weakly, that particular end scene, the end of the episode, and the majority of the episode after the first scene, is fantastic.
