Whitney returns home from the Marines looking to rekindle his relationship with Lana but his suspicious behavior prompts Clark to question his true motives, ultimately revealing a shocking truth about "the new Whitney." Meanwhile, Lex becomes suspicious of his new girlfriend after he discovers a questionable photo of her with Lionel. This was a pretty mediocre episode. The guest star isn't very impressive at all, but she's useful for these types of stories. So far, this is also the most patriotic Smallville episode. I never particularly liked these types of episodes and find that the patriotism ruins the enjoyment of the episode.
