Morgan Edge is back with a new face (Patrick Bergin as Morgan Edge), and Lex is slowly becoming unraveled as his world comes crashing around him in madness. Lies are all around, and Lex is unsure of who - if anyone - to trust.

Jellie · 02-04-2006, 12:08 PM

Best smallville ep ever.

Lex (MR) was brilliant. Lionel was at his cold hearted MB best. Morgan Edge returned with a new face.

Classic ending (before mindwipes became the ''in thing'') with Lex witnessing Clark ''tossing the car like a toy''.

vyperman7 · 02-05-2006, 02:59 AM

I agree with Alan. This is definately my favorite episode of the show. The performances, suspense, Lex finding out about Clark, etc.. Just a fantastic, must see, episode.

greggbray · 02-07-2006, 09:58 AM

This is up there on my list, too. I prefer Memoria, but I just love the level of tension and paranoia throughout the episode. I LOVED when Lex witness Clark take out the car. The strange joy he had in recognizing he had been right all along.

Excellent performance. And I loved Patrick as Morgan Edge. Hauer had the creepy factor down perfectly in the season opening 2-parter, but there was something a bit more threatening in Patrick's Edge. ..And, hey, if you have to recast Hauer, it feels like this is the way to go.

Shattered is one of my favorite episodes of all time. Absolutely brilliant, and I rarely say that about SV episodes.

red-K glory · 02-07-2006, 06:40 PM

this is a great episode
michael rosenbaum is great in this episode. i like when he singing the lulliby to the blanket, when he bashes the guy's head on the car and steals it, and when he is in the stables with Lana and he goes "what is this?" then she goes"camomille, it'll help you feel better" and lex goes"liar"
lana:"what?"
lex:"LIAR! YOUR TRYING TO DRUG ME!" and of course when he finds out about Clark. and finally in the end when he is in Belle Reeve sanitarium because he truly looks insane. Great episode!

OutlawAngel · 02-07-2006, 07:30 PM

I felt so bad for poor Lex. He was set up and Clark knew it but wouldnt help him since Lex foudn out his secret. The epsiodes I am sad about the most are the episodes like this with Lex.

Magus · 02-10-2006, 10:25 PM

This ep is the crowning acheivement of smallville. Best ep ever.

Shadow116 · 02-14-2006, 02:16 PM

Very cool,Lex "insane" and he figures out Clark's secret. And Clark stopping Edge's car very awesome.

UpandAtom · 02-15-2006, 12:33 PM

This episode was great. 'Nuff said.

Frantiqe · 02-22-2006, 02:13 AM

Just watched this episode. It was amazing. One of the best episodes that I've seen so far.

brainiacowen · 02-22-2006, 11:22 PM

Any episode that ends with a song by Johnny Cash is going to be good...and then how it ended and the events leading up to it...wow.

OutlawAngel · 03-05-2006, 07:24 PM

I tell yah though whenever I watch this episode I laugh when Lex starts screaming 'The car' because I think of the bloopers where Michael is trying to deliver the line and he is like 'the car the
@#$%&% car man!' and is laughing.

So I know the scene itself isnt meant to be funny but I remeber that dang blooper and I cant help but bust out laughing.

UpandAtom · 03-12-2006, 11:08 AM

Lex's last line to Clark was great:

LEX: I was right about you all along, Clark. You're not even human.

tejdog1 · 04-08-2006, 02:31 PM

Top 5 episode for sure. MR was unbelieveably good in this episode.

Biohazurd · 06-13-2006, 03:33 PM

I just recently saw the episode again on DVD and i have forgot how good it was. MR did a great job in this episode. I was really sad in the end with lex in the asylum and such. That Johnny Cash song topped it off also. My new favorite episode.

Chlark Kent · 07-05-2006, 06:11 PM

I love the ending with Hurt, but does anyone know the name of the song playing when Lex steals that guy's truck after leaving Lana at the stables?

The lyrics say something about a "mountain" and "black out the sun." I've searched the forums, google, and the music page, but I can't find it anywhere.

tallville · 07-27-2006, 08:16 PM

One of the best ever! i haven't seen it in a long time. i am rewatching my dvds and i cant wait to get to this one.

Naman is 1# · 08-07-2006, 12:50 PM

M.R. should of been nominated for a emmy for such a good acting job in this. One of my favorite eps.

LionelLuthor · 09-19-2006, 05:04 AM

This is without a doubt a stellar episode, with nothing that I can fault. Absolutely amazing.
