Shortly thereafter, Oliver shows up and finds an increasingly drunk Lois. Against her better judgment, she decides to confess her emotional turmoil to her ex-boyfriend, who thinks that Clark feels the same way about Lois, even if he can't say it.

In an even more awkward encounter of the exes, Clark and Lana reconnect. She's proud to see he's living up to his potential and saving people in Metropolis, and she doesn't regret the choice to leave. More importantly, she doesn't respect Clark's decision to wipe Chloe's memory, because Lana never would have been able to forgive him if he did that to her.

And that's when Doomsday showed up, and now we get a much clearer look at it. Doomsday is a giant, terrifying, spiky alien creature that resembles the offspring of Barry Bonds and Predator. It throws people around, destroys everything in sight, and generally kicks a lot of ass. Clark tries to punch it, but he gets flung across the barn like a rag doll for his troubles.

Doomsday approaches Chloe, and Jimmy tries to fight back, but gets slashed across the chest for his troubles. Oliver finds Clark to tell him that Doomsday has taken Chloe.

In the aftermath, Clark travels through the suddenly very popular hospital and tells Lana that he and Oliver are tracking the monster. Lois goes with Jimmy to see a specialist surgeon after having a tearful farewell with Clark.

Up at the Dark Fortress, Doomsday carries Chloe across the threshold and when she opens her eyes, she doesn't look all that disappointed.

If that wasn't enough excitement, someone is watching the video footage from Chloe's wedding. It's a man hooked up to a whole lot of machines. And he's bald. Holy crap, Lex lives!
