Okay, I didn't catch that. Still it's very irresponsible of the Kents *not* to tell Clark anything if he's showing signs of being stronger and faster than everyone else. I realize that they wanted to protect him, but what if there had been witnesses when Lex had hit him? Okay, sure it's a show and of course there weren't witnesses, but there could have been and then what? Clark would have been taken off to some government facility and tested on...or something.

Well, as my own post made clear, I think it's irresponsible the Kents kept him in the *first* place. Sure, sure, he comes to them all wee and cute, but they know, from the outset, that something isn't right. I'd argue that, upon finding the pod, they even know he's probably not *human*. But they *take him home with them*? Don't tell anyone what they saw and found? It's sheer luck he *wasn't* the first wave of some kind of invasion, or that he didn't turn out to be a monster or something, but in all seriousness, they were irresponsible from the get-go. The fact that they continued to be so is confounding, yes, but hardly surprising.

I have to keep telling myself "it's Smallville and Smallville's logic doesn't always resemble Earth logic--it's Insane Troll Logic!" Or insane Meteor logic.
