Clark is really a member of that family now. It's great to see how he helps his aunt. But he also tries to make Zara and Ching finally see the light. Perhaps he's also trying to prepare his departure back to Earth. I hope we're going to see another message between Lois and Clark soon.
Kal-El or rather Clark is all about family. It is one of the reasons he went to NK in the first place. He wanted to see what is parents people were like. He also wants to see Zara and Ching happy. He and Zara had more of a brother and sister relationship than bond mates.
The callback to one of Clark's enemies was great. I had almost forgotten about the sword fight between Arc-Tal and Clark. Poor Clark is leading a dangerous life on New Krypton and I'm not sure he realizes how he's made more enemies than Nor.
Arc-Tal is the worst kind of enemy; he hides in the shadows, calculating his next move. Yeah, Clark definitely has more enemies than Nor.

See the next chapter regarding preparations against Nor.
