Synopsis
In 1989, a huge meteor shower destroyed most of the town of Smallville, Kansas, killed a lot of people, and brought Jonathan (John Schneider) and Martha Kent (Annette O’Toole) what they have always wanted: a son. In 2001, their son, Clark (Tom Welling), is a growing man, has two best friends, Pete (Sam Jones III) and Chloe (Allison Mack), and has a crush on the hottest girl in school, Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk). But his parents have been hiding a secret from him: that they found him inside a spaceship when the meteor shower came. As he begins to develop his powers that will soon transform him into Superman, Clark begins to develop a friendship between his future arch-enemy, the bald Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum), and fights the people that are transformed by the kryptonite that was hidden in the meteors, including a shape-shifting girl, a boy that is becoming more insect than man, and an old killer who can become young again.
Summary written by Will
Smallville – Dichotic (Season 2, Episode 9)
Dichotic is derived from “dichotomous” Forking into two equal branches resulting from division of the growing point.
Jonathan gets hurt in a tractor accident (He breaks his leg) Lex offers the help of the best Orthopedist in Metropolis. But the young female doctor Helen Bruyce shrugs his offers off stating that a broken leg is no reason for call in the cavalry. Helen recognizes Lex immediately and shares her story of their last chance meeting.
Three years ago while she was in first year med student Lex drank too much and he found himself in hospital with a long tube down his throat and the lovely Helen, then and intern, doing the pumping. Lex is very impressed with this women, Seems Lex and Helen have a lot in common, she it the daughter of a very wealthy doctor who owns plastic surgery company in Metropolis. Lex asks here out. But will sparks fly we will have to watch the episode to see.
“The freak of the Week” is a Sophomore named Ian Randall. He’s one of those intelligent High School students with a perfect 4.0 GPA. It seems that he may have a twin, when they are together, they tend to do unscholarly things. The shop teacher Mr. Wood (how creative a shop teacher named Wood) just gave Ian a low grade, so he might end being the twin’s next target.
Ian Is on Chloe’s and Lana’s good side.
As a result arguments happen between Clark, Chloe and Lana.
Here is a cool future quote.. Clark to Chloe: I thought you need more help in the heavy lifting department ( sorry just had to add that)
Look for the superman “S” in a metal shop class. Turns out it was made by Clark.
