one of rosenbaum’s best episodes if not his best. his acting is top tier and the “i am the villain of the story” line remains one of the most iconic lines in smallville
Such a great line: “I’m the villain of the story”. Sad for good Lionel and specially for good lex :( And I loved when you said “where is Lois?” and I was like that too in every episode she wasn’t on it.
LostGamer12 there’s definitely a correlation between smallvilles best episodes just so happening to be episodes where michael goes hard on the acting lol
I don't know how many takes it took but one of the most chilling things at the end of the episode in the final scene after Lionel leaves is the ambiguous look on Lex's face. Part of him seems shocked and another part seems pleased at what his evil half did in dragging out Lionel's true nature because he knows what's inside him and what he's capable of. The music that plays at the very end is chilling as well and perfectly matches the scene and Lex's expression. Rosenbaum killed that scene and the entire episode and John Glover was great too.
Thank you so much for the shootout! It was a great birthday present (in one of my favorite smallville episodes no less!) so thanks for that. And it was cool to finally catch up, this episode is amazing in general and I love the opportunity for Rosenbaum to play comic book evil Lex, he shows he can do it, and his scene with Clark with the barn was awesome. Only thing I didn't like from this episode (and a couple before) is that Chloe has chosen to let Clark share her secret when he wants to, but every episode so far she keeps making these little hints of "trust me" "you should share" which goes against the idea of "he'll tell me when he's ready". I find that annyoing to be for real.

This gets me excited for the new Smallville animated series coming. Can't believe the main cast is gonna be voicing it too (With the exception of Allison Mack aka Chloe, of course)

For real he played that role perfectly. It made me want to see him become a villain but at the same time.... I want them to be friends

Michael nailed this shit in so many ways

this episode proves michael ronembaum was the best actor to play lex

Love this episode! We get to see both the good and the bad sides of Lex.
And I loved the good and bad that's the problem lol

One of my all time favorite episodes of smallville.
19:21 That's one of my favourite lines XD
Evil Lex is the best Lex. So much fun to watch.
And I guess Clark won't be trusting him any time soon XD

So sorry for Lionel
For real he got straight destroyed :(
I would be, but how he treated Lex I was no nevermind.
This is the episode we all realized he is the best Lex Luthor of them ALL!!
