Gaaaahh!!! What a place to stop! Now we know that something bad happened at the old people's home, but we don't know who was at the receiving end of that bomb. Will that nice young nurse survive, I forget her name, so that she can at least inform the police that the chocolates that exploded had been given to Miss Bowen-Timmons?
What a horrible place that dump was that Clark and Matt visited. I can imagine the kind of food they served - and the poor people who ate it already live very unhealthy lives! Imagine eating that sort of food on a regular basis! And imagine trying to get along with people like the customers there, or that waiter, and at the same time being afraid of the police! Jenni, you really managed to convince me that life isn't fair!
And yet none of those customers there is the bomber. What's wrong with Thomas that he turned out so bad? I really wonder who his father is. Could the donator of Thomas's genes by any chance be Lex Luthor? Of course, Aunt Ina donated her own spot of badness too, or rather her and her sister's parents did, that's for sure!
I very much liked seeing Clark with Matt. It was very interesting to see how they observed one another. Clark marvelled at his son's optimism, and then he realized that he had that trait in spades himself, and Matt remarked on how Clark turned into 'Superman' inside that 'restaurant' (or whatever it was). And I loved how Matt asked Clark about how he felt seeing his son take over from where he himself should have been, and Clark gave Matt an almost perfectly honest answer.
I just loved this thought from the pimply youth:
Mumbling under his breath, the waiter retired to the end of the counter to read his comic. Now, if he'd been Iron Man, he could have given these two newcomers a fight they'd never forget!
I wish you hadn't stopped there though, because now we
really need to know what has happened at the home for old people and what is gong to happen around Thomas!
