Clark tries to find some clues, but he gets set up and arrested for Jones’ shooting. The leader of the bad cops also tells Danny it’s time to get his hands dirty and kill the Green Arrow. The cops set him up by staging another suspect beating (well, the beatdown is real) and when the Green Arrow arrives, he tries to talk Danny out of killing him.

He’s successful, but then the leader, sitting in sniper position, fires and calls in a fake report that the Green Arrow is attacking a cop. Clark speeds off to stop the sniper and save the day.

Lana busts in on Tess Mercer to discuss a secret project called Prometheus that makes her think Lex is alive and calling the shots. Tess denies it and when Lana leaves, we see she stole some data from the mansion.

Tess figured that out too, so she visits Lana and tells her she corrupted all the data on Prometheus, which is the only thing that can save Lex’s life. And then...GIRL FIGHT! These two knock the crap out of each other for a while until Lana pulls a gun on Tess.

Instead of killing her, Lana shows Tess that she has a nano-transmitter embedded in her eye, and that Lex has been using it to see whatever Tess sees. Tess is quite devastated that she’s simply being used by Lex.

Later she gives Lex a stern lecture in the mirror about how loyal she’s been. She finally tells him she’ll completely destroy his entire life and company. She uses a necklace to jam the signal and says, “I loved you, you son of a bitch.” Oliver arrives for dinner, and Tess tells him she wants a merger, in more ways than one.

Finally, Clark and Lana meet up to talk and play some hardcore tonsil hockey.
