This latest exciting series of Smallville, finally sees Clark Kent and Lex Luthor developing into the sworn enemies they were fated to become. Clark will also discover more about his home planet, who his parents were, what his future holds and why he was sent to Earth.
In the last series finale, Clark faced his ultimate enemy, a version of himself called Bizarro. The two super heroes fought and their struggle caused Reeves Dam to break, flooding the area and leaving everyone in peril. Bizarro is intent on destroying his twin as only one of them can survive. Clark has also lost the love of his life to a horrific accident; his adoptive mother Martha has left for Washington; and the biggest trial for Clark comes in the form of his nineteen-year-old female cousin, Kara AKA Supergirl.
When the dam broke, Kara's spaceship was released from the earth. She had been in suspended animation for years, having left Krypton as a teenager destined to look after the young Kal-El. However, as she didn't age when inside the ship, she now finds herself younger than her cousin and he's now the one looking after her. Kara is fascinated with Earth's culture and has difficulty remembering to hide her powers from the world. Her youthful abandon puts her in several precarious situations that land her in hot water and directly onto Lex's radar.
Lana's death appears to have made Lex re-evaluate his life. He willingly goes to jail for the murder of his wife and begins to help those in need instead of exploiting them. His secret army has been dissolved, but he begins a new fixation on Kara and her ship, although he doesn't immediately realize the two are connected. Lex also continues his awkward relationship with his father Lionel. Neither trusts each other and Lex is all too aware that Lionel has many secrets and had a part in taking down Lex's secret army.
Another who doubts Lex's new charitable attitude is Lois Lane. Lois has sworn to find a way to bring the billionaire down. She also takes a big step in her career when the new Daily Planet editor Grant Gabriel is charmed by her take-no-prisoners attitude and hires her as his star reporter. While jumping at the chance to show off her investigative reporter skills, Lois feels bad about stealing some of her cousin Chloe's limelight.
As if competing with Lois for the new Daily Planet editor's attention wasn't bad enough, Chloe discovers that in addition to hiding Clark's true identity from the world, she must also now cover up her own secret. She fears confessing her new power to Jimmy as she believes it will drive him away. However, her continued evasiveness about her investigative stories and her relationship with Clark leads Jimmy to believe he and Chloe may not be the duo he thought they could be and he begins to look at Kara in a new light. As much as she's also prodded Clark to confess his secret to Lana over the years, Chloe finds that when it comes down to it, she can't tell Jimmy she's meteor-infected and realizes this may cause her to lose him forever.
