The one main mistake I found was how Lex said the crest on Kara's bracelet had showed up all over town & in the Kawatche caves. That's not true. The symbol with the "8" is the one that appeared in the cave. He actually referred to the House of El crest as a symbol. In reality it's not a Kryptonian symbol, but instead a crest, but Lex doesn't know that. A "symbol" with an 'S' inside a diamond doesn't look too alien to me. I guess the symbols do look somewhat alike and due to Kara's mysterious roots, he is questioning it.

I think they created a mess out of this whole "8" & "S" thing. They still use both symbols but don't distinguish the difference between them. The main point I'm making is that specifically, the S shield/crest has not appeared on anything that Lex has seen AND remembered other than the bracelet. It only appeared on the following items:

1. The "S" crystal that Jor-El gave to Raya who gave it to Clark (Lex as Zod saw this, but lost all his memories as Zod).

2. The Phantom Zone exit console (Lex never saw that)

3. Kara's bracelet (Lex saw this)

4. Kara's Kal-El locator (seen in Kara; Lex never saw this)

5. Zor-El's mind erasing crystal (whether it's the same as #1 on this list, meaning Zor-El temporarily stole it, is still yet to be determined--Lex never saw this)

Yeah the 8 symbol seems to be confused with the S symbol now. I'm not sure why the writers don't explain the biggest differences between the two.

It was a pretty stupid for Lex to assume that the symbol on her bracelet was an alien symbol.

Why did Lex need Pete to break into Lionel's vault? Lex owns LuthorCorp -- and theoretically everything in the vault.

Moreover, why couldn't he have just hired professionals rather than blackmailing Pete?

Last i checked Lex and Lionel used the same office for Luthorcorp so why would lex not go get teh bracelet himself?

When exactly did Pete become a computer hacker of Chloe's level? I mean, he was able to hack into Lex's personal computer, upload a virus and bring down the entire DP network! Pete Ross did this? WTF?

well apparently on smallville, everyone knows how to work computers except for Clark

lucky for them really, or Clark might actually start doing things himself
