No Freak of the Week! Bad cop Sam Phelan (Cameron Dye) witnesses Clark using his powers, and aims to take advantage of him. Meanwhile, Victoria Hardwick (Kelly Brook), an old flame of Lex's, comes to town.

My favorite S1 episode and in my top five favorite episodes of all time for the show. I just cannot get enough of this episode. Phaelon made for a great villain, especially since he was not a FOTW, there was outstanding Supes forshadowing, great dialogue, awesome effects (the bus stopping is still my favorite effects spot), and a great cliffhanger ending with the blur on Lex's computer.

The most underrated episode of the show in my opinion.

10/10

Jlandsw · 02-05-2006, 08:51 AM

This episode was definitely one of the best of S1.

My favourite episode ever.

I loved this one too,I agree with Ryan.

vyperman7 · 03-09-2006, 03:44 PM

Glad to hear it JD

I can't get enough of this episode though. It just has so many great things in it. Why some people don't like this episode more is beyond me.

UpandAtom · 03-10-2006, 10:58 PM

I only part of this episode I disliked were the Chloe/Lana scenes. I just thought they could've been done better. Other than that, this episode was great.

LionelLuthor · 03-20-2006, 02:39 PM

This episode really doesn't lose its magic.
I popped in Disc 3 of Season 1- hit play all, and this came on- I forgot it was on the disc!
Great teaser (The museum/bus incident) and great ending (Lex catching Clark's superspeed on camera).
And a great villain who I wish had not have died! He was in flashbacks later throughout the season though. Hooray for S1 continuity!

Keldaz · 04-27-2006, 03:37 PM

agreed. gr8 episode. and when clark pushed him, i wanted him to sqeese him to death :/

wantingkryptonite09 · 05-16-2006, 06:46 PM

best of season 1! but i still don't see how phelan thought he could shoot him if he could drop a genorator on him without a scratch. other than that fantastic ep!

red-K glory · 05-19-2006, 10:28 PM

This is not only one of the best episodes of season 1 but it is also one the best episodes of the entire series! It is so intense and the first time I watched it, it gave me the feeling that there was no way Clark would be able to get himself out of his dilemma. This is one of the episodes that I often put on when I am in the mood for a good old season 1 episode!

TKFlash · 05-25-2006, 06:08 PM

This episode was ok, it could have been better. That bus part was cool.

maryjanewatson · 06-02-2006, 02:40 AM

i have a question about this episode. if clark and phelan cut the power to the security cameras, how did lex get that film of the clark-blur?

maryjanewatson · 06-04-2006, 10:58 PM

ooo, ok, now i have an observation....

You know when clark is in the museum and is looking at the breast plate of Alexander the great, and lex goes "you know, some think he was invinsible" (or something like that)

do you think that they are trying to give the impression that Alexander the great was kryptonian? I mean, he had the s-shield and everything.

i love u tom · 06-06-2006, 05:53 PM

one of my favorite season 1 epsiodes!!! i just thought it was so great. you got to see clark get VERY mad and punch a beam out! awesome! it was also a very action packed episode. and phelan was like such an evil character you juss hated him but loved watchin him. too badd he died =P

Hurricain · 06-11-2006, 11:14 PM

i just watched this episode again. Forgot how good it was. One thing that bothers me though. How could Lex not know Clark has super abilities after this episode?

Lex knows Clark was with the bad cop at the museum. The cage was ripped open, along with the security box. the bad cop had zero equpment for such stuff.
A bag that had the armor was launched out of a window. Then there is the video of something running fast. All that added up seems to me that Lex would figure it out.

Also the cops had a search warrant for the Kent's place. But never found the ship? always thought that was odd.

Anyway, I try to leave all logic out when I watch SV but this stuff just jumps out.

tallville · 07-14-2006, 06:29 PM

I think this was a great episode. It was interesting right from the beginning with the teaser and it followed through to the end. However, it isn't my favorite because for me there are so many episodes that are interesting all the way through.

jay dante · 07-24-2006, 04:52 PM

An underrated episode. The villian here Phalen teaches Clark a big lesson. People will try to exploit him so he has to be careful about his powers. Better than many of the fotw episodes where clark saves lana yet again from harm. *cough* just let her die.
