Clark is convinced that he can find his cousin's whereabouts if he can get into Lex's mind, who's just been shot by the man holding Kara and Lois prisoner.

When Brainiac ends up in a confrontation with Clark after trying to coerce Kara into joining him, he takes it out on Lana.

Despite his father's warning, Lex still finds himself in a power struggle from within over the secret to The Traveler...with some deadly results.

All signs point to the fact that Clark was not the only one that landed on Earth the day of the meteor shower in Smallville.

Clark examines a rural hamlet where blue kryptonite in the water has no known negative effects. However when a bell rings, tho local deputy regretfully knocks out the nosy reporter 'at the wrong time and place'. Lois has a car crash nearby and is nursed by an Amish family. Yet when she wants to leave, she discovers their chilling true intention, as the extremely aberrant sect does with one female every year. In the Luthor mansion, Alexander insists to be called Lex and his aging condition requires 'regular' birthday parties. Mercer's plan to give him a cure if the original lex's research allows so is reconsidered as she realizes this clone may be too perfect.

The story of Clark Kent culminates in this two-hour series finale as Clark takes the last step to becoming the Man of Steel.
