As sad as it is true, it was definitely faked. She never even got in the Jeep.

"I don't trust anyone."
"I'm leaving and never coming back."

Way too obvious.

Lex didn't even know about the bomb. He'd never tell Clark the truth, but you can tell that he had nothing to do with it.

l believe it was real. You honestly think Lana rigged her own car with a bomb? She just happened to have some spare C4 laying around and just magically knew how to wire the explosives? Lois, l could MAYBE buy as being capable of that, but LANA???

I'm sorry, but I am not convinced that this death is real. They conveniently showed a white truck passing by blocking Lionel's view of her car prior to it exploding. My guess is that Lana ran and jumped on the truck.

The mail truck was it, yeah she was in it.

Next season's opener is going to start like season 4's one. Clark goes to Lana's grave, x-rays and sees no body. "Lois, Lana's alive."

Amby Leigh
05-17-2007, 08:14 PM
Lana is not dead. She TOTALLY faked her own death!

For the love of God there was a truck that just HAPPENED to block the view of her getting into the truck. And she just happened to make sure the Lionel was getting there just in time to see the car blow up?

They will go half a season without her. Clark will just about get over her when she comes back into his life and sends him on an emotional roller coaster of decision making.

shirkie
05-17-2007, 08:17 PM
Again... How can LANA have rigged a bomb to blow up her own car? This is LANA, not the demolition chick. And who was supposedly driving the ice cream truck that would have had to have been in on the plot? And if there were no charred remains in the car, why would the police be looking for Lana Luthor's murderer?

Until someone explains all that, the witch is dead in my book.

i have mixed feelings. If they did something interesting with her i don't mind. It is just like any other character. When story lines are boring you hate the character. I feel that her character improved the second half of this season. I just don't want to see her and clark together.

shirkie
05-17-2007, 08:21 PM
Another reason l don't buy her faking her death is because that would be a lame retread of Chloe's faked death. Are the writers *that* desperate that they would do an exact copycat of what they did a few seasons ago? Lana's got no further purpose on the show. Let her rest in pieces.

shirkie Lex faked Chloe's death.

Lana is supposedly faking her own death.

krpto
05-17-2007, 08:28 PM
yah it was way to obvious that she didn't get in her jeep and that she was in the truck that drove away when her jeep exploded. Maybe she framed Lex as a way to force him to stop his experiments. If lex is in jail for murder he cannot experiemnt and it gives everybody else a change to try and find a way to take him down forever.

jimmyolsenblues
05-17-2007, 08:28 PM
sorry, i totally believe that post office truck that ran interference at the last second just before lana blew up was way too obivious. lana totally jumped on that truck.
lana is totally alive , sorry.
that post office interference truck scene is crucial to the point lana is alive and well. sorry.

05-17-2007, 08:40 PM
OK let's think about this.

There were obviously human remains in the Jeep or else the police couldn't have come to the conclusion that someone was murdered in the Jeep.

lf Lana "faked her own death", she just happened to have a corpse in her handbag to use for just this occasion?

Next, since when does Lana know how to rig explosives? ls knowledge of explosive her latest magical skill? Lana-Fu, meet Bomb-Fu?

Finally, we've already seen one female experience a fake death via explosion. Why in the world would the writers be that repetitive? Or did Lana go, "Gee, since Chloe's death was faked with a giant fiery explosion, no one will suspect anything is amiss if l do exactly the same thing! Genius!"?

l maintain the death is real... And long overdue.

Lana isn't dead, she fake her death. So that Lionel, Lex, and Clark think she is dead. She will come back on next season 7.

shirkie
05-17-2007, 08:43 PM
Care to explain any of my points?

lf not Lana, whose remains are in the car?

Since when does Lana know how to use explosives?

Why would the writers copy the "death" of Chloe in Season 3? Are they out of ideas?

shirkie

krpto
05-17-2007, 08:48 PM
In an explotion there might not be any remains left. And police don't need a body to convict on murder.

Lana knows everything since tptb love her and want her to be "perfect".

Why would tptb use the same story over again hmm let me think because they cannot think of anything else since theyr an out of ideas and they hope we won't remember.

SmallvilleMan
05-17-2007, 08:49 PM
Care to explain any of my points?

No, because the truck was there for reason. Why if you're producers do you have a truck pass by a main character when they're going to die? It's really common sense. When you show a main character dying, it's suppose to be dramatic, there's nothing random about it. You can wish and hope all you want, but come September, she will be back.

elhector2
05-17-2007, 08:50 PM
I don't know how accurate this is...but I caught a glimpse of the driver of that truck and I could've sworn it was a guy with a t-shirt tight around the arms just like Clark's are. I could be wrong, but I could've SWORN that was Clark. Hmm...if only he had super speed to grab Lana out of the car...oh wait.

And who needs an explosive expert when you have a guy that can shoot fire from his eyes? Run, grab Lana, jeep goes boom, get the hell out of there...

Why would they replicate Chloe's death? That I'm not sure about...but hey, there's only so many ways to get out from under someone like Lex's thumb...and an explosion is probably one of the easiest to fake deaths there is...so why not? Maybe doesn't score points for writer creativity, but it's efficient...

As for the remains...that I don't know...seemed like the police were on Lex awful quick after it happened though...maybe there's ashes in there but there's no way a sophisticated analysis on them could be run in that time...are they human remains for sure? Because I bet there's nothing but ashes left in that Jeep...that was a BIG explosion...

shirkie
05-17-2007, 08:51 PM
So basically we're supposed to ignore the giant plot hole because she's Lana and everything she does is wonderful?

l think they put the truck there just to give fans something to talk about over the long summer.

Actually, I think that Lionel told the police that he saw Lana get into the truck and that she died. I'm not sure that the police would've had time to check inside of the truck for her remains. Now perhaps they should verify that first prior to arresting Lex but this is Smallville, little details like that don't matter.



Next, since when does Lana know how to rig explosives? ls knowledge of explosive her latest magical skill? Lana-Fu, meet Bomb-Fu?


Ha ha...well this I agree with. I think the point is that we're not supposed to know what happened and then next season, we will be given an explanation of what happened that is sure to not be to the satisfaction of many fans out there. :p


Finally, we've already seen one female experience a fake death via explosion. Why in the world would the writers be that repetitive? Or did Lana go, "Gee, since Chloe's death was faked with a giant fiery explosion, no one will suspect anything is amiss if l do exactly the same thing! Genius!"?


Originality was never TPTB's forte. How many times have characters "died" on this show and come back? Or have gotten shot and end up fine?

No, Shirkie, the death is NOT real. And there's a simple explanation for the entire thing:

Luthor money talks, Lana gets to walk.

As far as Lana's death scenario goes, look at it this way; which is more likely: repeating the cliffhanger from several seasons ago or repeating the 100th episode from last season?

Yeah...

05-17-2007, 08:57 PM
I agree with SmallvilleMan...plus the fact with that Clark on her side, there's not a whole lot Lana can't do...and come on, does anyone really think Clark's gonna sit around and let Lana die? Even if you hate Clana, you know he's gonna be watching for her...and I still think the driver of the truck was him...anybody agree or disagree? Wish I'd videotaped so I could rewatch..

05-17-2007, 08:58 PM
have you not watched smallville before we the fans are always supposed to just believe something and ignore plotgholes tptb are crazy about making us think about the imposible they want to make real. Noone is gonna be dead it is just a giant ploy to get us to watch next season.

I have a confession to make:

The mail truck was not her getaway...I hijacked one and drove it over to have a front seat view as she got killed. Sorry I blocked the show for all of you, it was quite beautiful...

Way too obvious.
True,soon as I saw that truck pull infront of lionel where he couldn't see I knew it was fake.I'm bettin they explain how she never got in the truck when the van pass by lionel,he never actually saw her get in.So its easy for them to explain :\

PHOENIXZERO
05-17-2007, 09:25 PM
Simple to explain....

She got a hold of someone who doesn't like Lex or what he's doing. Some how she got in contact with Oliver and he set it up. Or it was done through Chloe who in turn got a hold of Oliver and they set it up. Including a body for the vehicle to be Lana. (Though unless the teeth were removed or destroyed, that shouldn't really work all that well).

Of course, none of it really matters because she's certainly going to be back. That truck passing by was just made it too obvious. If they were really going to kill her, they wouldn't have bothered with the truck going by to conveniently block Lionel and our view, if she was meant to die there wouldn't have been a truck and they would have just cut to Lionel and then back to her being in the vehicle as it explodes.

Okay so it really isn't but even with all our wishful thinking, she's not going to die.

Now Chloe's death, that sucked I knew it'd have to happen eventually, but that way was just too lame....... If she was going to have such a stupid power like that, they could have maybe saved it for her sacrificing herself for Clark instead. Though it'll probably lead to Lois working at the Planet and becoming a better reporter.

LanaandPete
05-17-2007, 09:27 PM
There was no body Shirkie, plus we never saw her enter the car. She called Lionel to have a witness to her "death"

Also, an explosion doesn't vaporize an entire body, there would have been something.

Apparently not enough times, because I haven't seen Whitney, Jason, and Genevieve resurrected as of yet:(

Also, I would like to bring up something else here... Who was driving that truck if it did pick Lana up? Who is working with her on this? Wouldn't it be awesome if it was Henry Small? Nell Potter maybe? How about Shelby!?:rotfl: In all seriousness, it would be really cool if Lana's biological father was the one that rescued her there, if she actually did get rescued, which I hope wasn't the case.

PHOENIXZERO
05-17-2007, 09:32 PM
There was a body, but just because there is one doesn't mean it's Lana.... Just there because there needed to be one to incriminate Lex....


Even better, she could have organized it with Lex's own people and we know they aren't all that smart so it'd be easy enough to trick them into thinking it's something Lex ordered.

Chlois Supporter
05-17-2007, 09:39 PM
There's a number of problems with Lana "faking" her death. One. The police wouldn't arrest Lex without a body. Period. They'd comb over that truck, find no body, and wonder what the heck just happened. Sorry, that's a fact. Explosion or not, they'd find a body in a contained area like that, bones etc. Takes a lot to incincerate a body, and a contained explosion like that ain't cutting it.

Two. Lana faked her own death. Great she just committed a crime and is going to jail. If she faked her death, orchestrated it so it would point to Lex, the moment the police find out they're hauling her ass to jail. It's not like Chloe where Lex worked with General Lane to rescue Chloe and continue the charade of her death till court. Lex had help from the government in doing that. Lana's either dead, or going to jail when its revealed to the police she faked her death.

If Lana is in fact dead, then the death is long overdue. Like 6 years overdue.

I'm torn about whether Lana is dead. I mean I would absolutely LOVE for it to be true, and I agree that two fake deaths in explosions on the show is pushing it, but the writers haven't exactly shown the best judgment recently, hence the lame storylines and laughable dialogue. Unfortunately the Pink Princess may not have met her maker. A glorious moment perhaps taken away, just like in Reckoning. <crying>

This is true, but unfortunately it's also something that I can see TPTB bypassing in order to add to the drama of the finale with Lex being arrested. It's a fair point though.


Two. Lana faked her own death. Great she just committed a crime and is going to jail. If she faked her death, orchestrated it so it would point to Lex, the moment the police find out they're hauling her ass to jail.


Well, who says they are going to find out? It is possible that the police never find evidence in terms of what exactly happened with the explosion. If they can't link it back to Lana and they can't prove that Lex did it, nothing will happen except for the fact that Lex will have already been suspected of trying to kill Lana once, which will in turn keep him off of Lana's back. How stupid would Lex be if he went after Lana after these sequence of events?

well thats if she admits she faked her death without any help,maybe they'll say sumthin like she got help sumhow.Cause I doubt they have her go to jail,and I doubt lex stays in jail once she's found alive.As of now they think lex set her up cause she was leavin him,she can fake her own death but lead ppl to believe lex set her up.Remember she knows lex wont let her get away so easy so its possible for them to use sum excuse of her makin it out alive but still puttin the blame on lex.Tho I doubt anythin will come of it,lex will be free by the end of the finale if not the 2nd epi,and lana alive :rolleyes:


O but I agree tho,logically its stupid but hey what u expect from tptb :rolleyes: :lol:

Here's an even weirder thing. The premiere is obviously not going to be "3 months later" its gonna start the same day again like 1 and 5. Which means that if Lana faked her death we're not gonna see her in the first episode. I can't see them doing a "I faked my death...for 24 hours...please forgive me Clark" storyline from her.

You won't see that unless her plan is not faking her death. Her plan could be to make it look like Lex tried to kill her. That's why her popping up in the premier would make sense. If Lex goes to jail...Lana wins. If he doesn't go to jail, which is what will happen, then the police obviously won't have proof to use against Lex, however, with Lex suspected of trying to kill Lana once, it kind of ensures the fact that Lex won't go after Lana for real with the police already up Lex's a$$ about that the first time. It's like a chess game, and Lana would basically be preventing Lex from making that first move to get her.

Just wait until late september where they show lana in the final minutes of the premiere alive and well.

Unfortunately, Lana's not dead.

But just coz she's alive doesn't mean the Clana is... *evil smirk* ;)


And Chloe? Is not dead. *big smile* :)

Yeah it was obvious because the truck passed by at that exact moment....but, what someone said earlier, maybe it was obvious for a reason...maybe they put that truck their so people would THINK yeah she got in the truck, but truth is, it was just a coincidence that the truck happened to be passing by at that time. I mean seriously I don't think Lana thought this whole break up with Lex thing through, who could she be teaming up with? Couldn't have been Clark, he was just as clueless as Lionel. So the question is, do TPTB have the guts to play with our heads like that?! I think they do! And if they do...bravo! and about freaking time you grew a set... So the faked death was a set up, they wanted us to think it was fake because hello! what the heck is that truck doing in an alley?! And how did it just happen to pass by and we don't get to see Lana get in her car!
so yeah, mind games...
i like it

and chloe is not going to die!

But wait...we'll see the RISE OF THE PHOENIX in the fall as Lana survives and has Luthor in jail. Oh well, least they got a good explanation of why Michael ROsenbaum won't be on so much next year. Maybe they'll put Lex in DADDY"S CELL! BWa ha ha hahahhahaaaaaa! Hope he don't run into some big guy named Leon in the shower that will do such bad things to Mr. Luthor.

She had to be planning it for awhile. Remember, she's been a Luthor as of late and has access to the Luthor resources.

Her acting has picked up a ton in the last couple weeks. There was a point where things felt a little forced and awkward from KK in Noir and a few previous episodes, but she definitely made up for it in the finale and prototype.

It's been hot and cold for Kreuk all season. Well, thats just how I see it.

This is so funny to me. Why do we think or assume that Lana had the car 'wired'? I mean, did I miss that in the show....they said the car was wired with a bomb? No, it exploded, Lionel saw it said it was a bomb that's it. You're jumping the gun a bit here I think.
Also Lois being capable of that is based on what that she's an army brat?

Personally I'm tired of all the Lana bashing, but to each his own.

Unfortunatly the stupid Smallville writers are going to come up with some lame reason (like that stupid a** mail truck) on how she faked her death. (I still don't see how she hid on that truck. It pulled in front for like a second and was gone!)

So I'm not mad that Lana is not officially dead...I'm just made cause they're going to bring her back with some stupid "faked her own death" scenario. Only if she got out of that bomb with something REALLY awesome would I be slightly apathetic about Lana still being alive.

I was really sad that Lana "died". I couldn't beleive that. i was flipping out w/ my friend. There has to be a way to bring her back. She was really a good person. Lex just manipulated her so everything that happened she did because of Lex. I think now that she is away from him she would have been better especially knowing Clark's secret. If she wasn't dead.

That's an understatement. :lol:

Plus side of Lana faking her death means more room for Kristin to work on other projects before returning to Smallville once Lana returns!

Because I don't think Lana will be back in the first episode of next season and if she is...then oh well.

Regardless... I don't think Lana is dead, TPTB wouldn't be stupid enough to write Lana/Kristin out of the series.

Lana could have the footage from the study when Lex slaps her and tells her "do you think I'm going to let you walk out that easy." or whatever he said and Lana responds "what are you going to do Lex, kill me? because that's the only way I won't be walking out of this mansion."

This is why the body at this point isn't important.

There's logic, and then there's TPTB. They believe it's plausable that a wounded Lana would be better off getting urgent medical care in Smallville Kansas after being shot in downtown Metropolis, New York. Or "security" to Lex Luthor's biggest project in history that includes a very loose chain and no security guards at the entrance. There's a ton of things that go on in this series which _requires_ a leap of faith in order to be believable. But more often than not they do manage to get things realistic enough to be enjoyable. And they've come a long way towards being more continuity-based.

Bottom line is: it's highly probably that Lana faked her own death, but the details should be more believable than some of the other bad decisions they've made.

Why wouldn't the dummy have been incinerated, or why couldn't Lana have had a corpse put in the car? She's a Luthor now. I just think it's quite obvious she planned her death, faked it, and had her getaway truck drive by right before the vehicle exploded.

They don't necessarily need to find a body at all to arrest Lex, he could definitely be arrested simply for questioning. It's his own wife's car that has been blown up and they have the motive to boot, through Lana's last phone call to Lionel, and he's the obvious suspect.

The whole purpose for Lana staging the whole thing is simply to buy time so that she could get out of Smallville safely, and not having Lex going after her immediately. The police is definitely going to detain Lex for quite some time, until he's cleared of the murder charges.

OK, I'm a Chlarker. But first and foremost Clark should be happy. So I didn't mind the first part of Reckoning because Lana was what Clark wanted. But then came the second half which totally sucked.

So we're SOL on Clark happiness since AlMiles see Superman and Smallville as a tragedy (their own words in public interviews). So Clark will never be happy on this show, at least not for long.

KK is on the show next season so Lana is not really dead. Either she got in the truck that passed by or it was just fortunate that it temporarily blocked Lionel's view while Clark, or somebody saved her. It sure looks like Lionel didn't know about what was happening so if Lana faked her death, how did it happen and who helped? I'll have to go back and rewatch the episode but it sure seemed that Clark thought she was dead. So the operative question should be who helped Lana?

I've looked at this again, and again. I can't see what you are seeing.:(
It doesn't look like a 'dummy' to me, it looks like part of the seat or something.

Lana isn't dead , she jumped into the mail truck before the as it past her SUV . You never see Lana acually get in the SUV because the truck passing by blocks you're view . It's obvious that she's not dead because why would the writers even put a truck in the scene if they weren't planning on using it as part of Lana's getaway .

lt's not obvious she's alive. There is clearly a body in the car after the explosion. You can hear a thump as its head slumps forward and hits the steering wheel.

KK's contract could be up for negotiation and they could use the mail truck as a lame cop out, but it's entirely possible she's deader than a doornail.

I bet Lionel & Lana staged the death...Just the look on lionels face when he was on the phone to her made me think that.
He probably had to go through with the phonecall etc. incase lex checks Lionels phone records to see what the situation really was...The reason Lionel did that was to just make Lex think she's dead coz he knows lex would have hunted her down if he thought she was still alive...Lionel had to tell clark lana is dead so that he knew Clark would confront Lex which was the only way he knew lex would actually believe sh'e dead...that's why he took the kryptonite to the dam to get there before clark found out where he was (just incase clark was gonna go too far and kill lex, then lionel would have jumped in and weakened clark to stop him killing him???

That's my wayout there theory! (if even makes sense?

Possible, but not likely.

Chloe's "death" in season 3 seemed like there was no way that she could have made it out of that. But Lana's is too open.

I've watched that scene over and over and the 'thump' you mention sounds like part of the explosion, not a body.:confused:
