Quotes:
Chloe Sullivan: How did you survive the geothermal explosion?
Clark Kent: It was before Dinah pressed the button. I don't know. I got out before the blast, but not fast enough to save everyone else. Chloe... I've searched everywhere. There's no sign of Lois.
Chloe Sullivan: [cries softly] I saw someone tacking her photo on a missing-persons report. And I keep thinking that maybe, maybe I haven't...
Clark Kent: Lost everyone.
Chloe Sullivan: You were there today, Clark, weren't you? I really needed you. Why didn't you come to me?
Clark Kent: I'm the reason Jimmy's dead. Oliver was right. I put humanity on a pedestal. It wasn't a Kryptonian beast that killed Jimmy. It was a human.

lackluster all-over-the-place episode, makes one wonder how much lower the series can go, 16 May 2009
5/10
Author: sramv from Canada

They've been dumbing down this show in so many ways for quite some time that it is not really surprising that this finale was so poorly done, and that good old Clark has regressed from having the emotional IQ of a teenager to that of a grade school child. Full of plot holes (time travel or no time travel) and poorly conceived, written, sequenced, edited and acted - it displays a real lack of empathy for its audience - if this show was a Prime Minister, the ruling party members would have their knives out, but it looks like horrible finale or no horrible finale, we're doomed to have a season nine. If I were Aaron Ashmore, I'm thinking I would not be too disappointed to be exiting about now. BTW, Jimmy Olsen has a kid brother named Jimmy Olsen who they now say is the 'real' Jimmy Olsen. oh that is a perfect example of the incredulity- and ire-inducing inanity that pervades this episode.
