Smallville - Kandor - Season 9 Episode 7 - CW

This has nothing to do with Superman, or Smallville, but . . I'm always looking for new or different music and I found a pretty cool song. It's a mash-up of Blondie and the doors. It's called Rapture Riders. I don't know where to get the recording, but . . I did find the video on YouTube. Which I thought was pretty cool. So I wanted to share. Click on the following link and it'll take you there. I hope you like it as much as I did. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnhKPw2NXIw Anyways, on to the story . . in this episode of Smallville we find out that Zod and the Kandorians are actually clones. When Tess opened the orb, apparently they were all released and came to maturity. We also see that this all happened back when Kandor was destroyed. At the time, Jor-El was trying to ensure the survival of the Kandorians, should they fall in battle . . which they did. He put a blood sample of each of them . . including his own, and Zod's, into the orb for future reference. At the time, since trips to Earth were often made on sabbaticals, Jor-El also put in some kind of Red-Sun inhibitor so that should they be taken to Earth they wouldn't have the same powers as the Kryptonians. Plus, I think he was afraid of what they would do to Earth, being soldiers and disoriented and all. Anyways, Zod figures out that Jor-El is here, while at the same time Jor-el figures out that Clark is actually his son . . well, his future self's son. Zod is convinced that Jor-El's secret son will help to bring them their powers, so he mortally wounds him knowing that he'll return to say goodbye. Which he does. And now . . Zod knows that Clark is the 'traveler'. Also this episode, Clark comes out to Tess. Not on purpose, but . . he's finds out that Jor-El is on Earth and that Zod has him. He suspects that Tess is behind Zod, so . . he goes to her for information. Now we just have to wait and see what she's going to do with that information. Like I said, it seems like everybody knows who Clark is anymore. Well . . except for Lois that is. I thought this was a good episode . . very emotional for Clark. Chloe, as always, plays a big role in bringing Jor-El up to speed. And Ollie is around for support. The above picture is Jor-El and Zod.
