Jor-El strips Clark of his powers, making him human. Delighted to finally be "normal", Clark pursues a relationship with Lana sans secrets. However, after Lana, Jonathan and Martha are taken hostage by three thugs, Clark must figure out how to save his family without his super powers. This episode featured a lot of footage of Chloe, which is always a plus, and finally had Clark and Lana have sex. Well, at least that's what we are to believe. Also, this episode had a good Clark-Lex dynamic. Overall, though, it was pretty decent.
