Episode 90 - 5x02 Mortal

This week Zach is joined by Lance Laster to discuss the ninetieth episode of Smallville, "Mortal." We talk Clark getting by without his powers, a surprisingly effective Sheriff Adams, lying to people about your ETA, and Clark and Lex finally coming to blows! It might be easier to turn the power off sometimes, but don't turn off the latest Always Hold On To Smallville!EPISODE ROUNDUPZach's Grade: A+Lance's Grade: AIMDB Grade: 8.7Superman Homepage Grade: 4/5 Bechdel Test: FAILSERIES TALLY BOARD...From Metropolis: 14Amazing Technicolor Kryptonite: 8Amnesia Count: 42Blue Shirt/Red Jacket: 26Chloe's Unseen Connections: 22Clark Loses His Powers: 7Episode Title Said In Episode: 36Hospital Visits: 70In Media Res: 2 Kent Truck Accidents: 9KOs to Keep Clark's Secret: 26 Lana Kills: 2Lois Arm Punches: 4 Main Character Deaths: 4Mind Control Count: 13Movie Plot As An Episode: 8Possession Count: 15Product Placement Pete: 6Shower Count: 18Shut It Down: 10Shut That Laptop: 11Smallville High School Faculty Deaths: 5Smallville High School Student Deaths: 17Under The Influence: 2Weddings: 3"You Weren't Yourself": 17Always Hold On To Smallville is brought you to by listeners like you.
