Storyline

When Jonathan goes to Smallville Medical Centre for a physical examination, his doctor diagnoses arterial blockage and recommends a triple bypass heart surgery procedure. Meanwhile, Vince Davis, the older brother of Clark Kent's friend Garrett Davis, needs a liver transplant - but does not receive one and he dies. His body is sent to Metropolis to be the next test subject of Lionel's experiment by Dr. Lia Teng, who injects his dead body with experimental blood platelets and revives him. When Vince gets sick again (because he needs the life-sustaining blood injections on a daily basis), the unstable Garrett loses control and becomes a threat to the patients, employees, and visitors of the hospital by showing up at the hospital with a kryptonite-infused bomb strapped to himself, threatening to blow himself up unless his brother receives a new liver transplant.

Quotes

Dr. Lia Teng: If you don't leave at once, I'm notifying your father.
Lex Luthor: Can't you just send me to the principal instead? I offered to fund your research, doctor... you turned your back on me. Now I suggest you tell me the origin of your little platelette cocktail or I'll make sure INS reserves you a window seat on the next flight to Peun Yun.

Miraculous Power

When Jonathan Kent goes to Smallville Medical Center for physical examination, his doctor diagnoses arterial blockage and recommends a heart surgery procedure with triple bypass. Meanwhile, Vince Davis (Tahmoh Penikett), the older brother of Clark Kent's friend Garrett Davis (James Kirk), needs a liver transplantation, but he does not resist and dies. His body is sent to be the subject of an experiment of Dr. Lia Teng (Françoise Yip) with blood platelet and revives. When Vince gets sick again, Garrett looses control and becomes a threat to the patients, employees and visitors of the hospital.

"Resurrection" shows a miraculous power of Clark Kent. The story is good, and we finally understand the sort of research that Dr. Lia Teng is developing with blood platelet. My vote is nine.
