According to the network, Clark goes undercover as a police officer upon discovering that John Jones (guest star Phil Morris) was shot.  Taking on the alias “Joe Fordman,” he looks for the culprit while dealing with other problems.  Two comic book characters also make their first Smallville appearance – Dan Turpin and Dr. Emil Hamilton. 

Another noteworthy scene in the episode was mentioned by Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello though: Clark shares a kiss with L***.  Since Erica Durance isn’t on the episode and Allison Mack barely has any screen time here, the girl could only be Lana.  It’s also worth mentioning that she and Clark have a dinner date, and that sparks fly as she confronts Tess.
