0:50 - that's the kind of depth you don't see much of.........i don't understand why people disliked her, she had such a hard life but kept up a brave facade
I can't speak for everybody but it's because 1) she always focused on the negative and 2) she moved on from Clark to Lex so fast... considering her moral high ground she always had with Clark and 3) she always seemed like she was offended by everything everyone else did? Except she let Lex get away with everything, and he was the worst...
I will never understand their dislike either. Lana was an orphan who continually was harmed and assaulted by others throughout her life (and in hospital more times than I can count). She was groomed by Lex as a teenager and at her most vulnerable she was taken advantage of and lied to. No wonder she was confused and made mistakes about who to trust - she was a traumatized teenager who actually deserved compassion and help instead of hate.
This was one of the most painful episodes, it gave us a deeper understanding for Lana. It wasn't Chloe's, Clark's or even Lois's responsibility for what happened in her past, but I hated them for not being there for her as friends. She didn't have anyone. Probably why she was vulnerable enough to get trapped by Lex.
It's so sad... first her parents died in front of her, then her aunt left her and things with her biological father also didn't work out and then Clark ripped her heart out! Lex and Chloe were kinda the only people left in her life and Lex used all this for his advantage.
@Micheal Henry she never loved Lex. Her feelings for him were out of gratitude. Her love for Clark was true. My theory is proved in "Promise" when Lana learned that Clark left her not because he didn't love her but wanted to protect her. After that she immediately decided to break up with the "father" of her "child". That was exactly what she meant by "I love both of you" in "Hydro". When Clark's words "I don't love you", she was heartbroken and angry with him. At the end of “Perry” Lana told that she wanted to spend more time with someone about who she really cared (Clark) rather than with her her dead parents. When Clark broke her heart, she started taking drugs to see her parents to *forget Clark,* then dating with Lex. I don't blame Clark, it's not his fault. Lana made her own choice but I can understand her motives and reasons why she did that.
@@Flower-x6c very interesting insight. do you you mean her gratitude for lex was also a reaction? & yes if she is trying not to be dependent a hug could make it worse!
Clark has alway been the good costant in her life,she thought he would always be there for her. Thats the look of "and even clark abandoned me,even clark is walking away from me"...so yes,sad resignation.
It took Lana another 3 seasons, but in end, she became totally independent, was as powerful and strong as Clark without any of his weakness. Still sad she ended up all alone, which was something she hoped Clark would avoid by sharing his secret. Instead it happened to her.
Yeah, at first she starting taking drugs, then dating with Lex only to *forget Clark.* I don't blame Clark. He just wanted to protect her after what happened with her in "Reckoning". So it's not his fault. It's Lana's choice. But I can understand her feelings and reasons why she did that. Her sweetheart left her heartbroken by his words "I don't love you".
"Lana..all I want is you to be happy" Clark, you definitely look uneasy in that room with Lana..you probably don't know what to do or say, since what happened to Lana is mostly due to your dumping her..sorry, but that statement of yours (so often actually made in real life by people who dump their boyfriends or girlfriends) may sound a bit senseless..Lana replies "I will be"..Yes, she will be happy, but only with you, Clark....
Why didn't he just hug her and love on her during this scene! She clearly needed him and he just walked off. There were so many times throughout this show when clark should have just snatched lana up and made love to her mentally but I guess it didnt go that way.
"snatched her up and made love to her mentally"...oh my God I'm dying 😂😂😂😂😂. I see what you're saying though. You're right. Even though I love Clark, when he's not acting like an idiot, he can be so clueless at times when it comes to Lana. Especially in this scenario when he knows he triggered this downward spiral Lana went through.
Totally get where you're coming from but didn't he just break up with her like the episode before this? (Hence why she was trying to get comfort by crossing over to see her dead parents.) And then she says again in this scene "I won't allow myself to become dependent ever again" whch is obviously a loaded thing to say to him. Like I agree that she needed the comfort but I think the whole point was that she didn't want to need it from him. And I think he knows that they won't move on without space even if his reasons for wanting the break up are stupid in the first place
@@ThexImperfectionist This is exactly where the writers messed up. Cause like 2 episodes later, she was hooking up with Lex instead of actually letting her be on her own and figure things out on her own. At this point she was going through functional depression and needed professional help, cause she was overwhelmed with a feeling loneliness even when she was around other people.
@@zhozho800 when Clark gained his powers again, he couldn’t sleep with Lana anymore. He was afraid even to kiss her like before. After Jonathan’s death, Clark’s guilty for Lana’s dead parents became stronger, so he couldn’t be with her like before anymore. Such situation was in season 3. Martha lost her baby Clark not only had guilty for that but his guilty for Mr and Mrs Lang because stronger. That’s why he distanced from Lana.
Clark was so dry here. She’s clearly sad and needed someone to talk to despite their relationship status. If someone is telling you they’re lonely etc. at least try to console them rather than hit them with dry one liners. He’s never been good with words
if he has is own compelling experience with the drug why isnt he more empathetic and understanding to lana. clark is empathetic to (elite murders) but not to her. lex is being a manipulative snake but the part where he says he understands is because its the truth and because he went under too. clark is supposed to be morally superior thanks to his parents and he cant even tell when his ex needs a hug. but save lex a million times so he can keep on experimenting, ruing lives and killing lol

Why she didn’t listen anyone when they were warning her about Lex's true nature? Clark didn’t have any proof. He could only suspect, not know for sure. Also how Lana should have understand his actions if at first he warns her about Lex, then wishes her to be happy with him? Illogical acting, isn't it? Moreover, even Chloe went on dealing with The Luthors no matter what. And if you look at Martha and Lionel, you could think that they were a family couple. In later episodes Tess also didn’t believe that Lex was an evil person despite everyone were warning her. That was because Lex had saved her. However in “Bulletproof” when Lana showed her PROOF that Lex was using her for his own purposes, Tess finally believed it. So why Clark didn’t do the same? Why he didn’t show her PROOF? It was not a problem with his abilities. So his warnings were similar to jealousy and quickly conclusions. Notice, after learning about Lex’s true nature, Lana never blamed anyone because no one gave her proof.

i love lana so much. they are heartwrenchingly and addictively tragic
The absence of music during this scene made it that much more impactful

This was one of the saddest episodes for me.
Same. It’s actually a very dark episode.

This scene is from the heart, it's really sad to see Lana so vulnerable, I was really touched by it... I loved Lana
It's so sad... first her parents died in front of her, then her aunt left her and things with her biological father also didn't work out and then Clark ripped her heart out! Lex and Chloe were kinda the only people left in her life and Lex used all this for his advantage.
there was so much more depth to Lana's character, its a shame they didn't delve into it more
she was tough
CLARK WHY U LEAVE HER...DONT U SEE SHE PRETEND TO BE STRONG IN FRONT OF U WHILE ACTUALLY SHE NEED UR HUG...THAT SILENCE ENDING KILLED ME...POOR LANA

Yesss I was like fuxking hold her kiss her forehead go somewhere away for a couple days like the beach, just to get her mind off of things.
If he hugged her, he would worse her condition. It’s better just to leave in this situation.
I agree that ending was awkward. Aren't they still dating in this episode? At least a hug would be normal, or coming inside the room.
@@Flower-x6c
very interesting insight. do you you mean her gratitude for lex was also a reaction?
& yes if she is trying not to be dependent a hug could make it worse!
I feel Lana's pain.
this is when i started loving her...
I felt so fucking bad for Lana you can just look at her and see the pain on her face
I disagree. I think that look was her hersel believing that she'll be happy.
Clark has alway been the good costant in her life,she thought he would always be there for her. Thats the look of "and even clark abandoned me,even clark is walking away from me"...so yes,sad resignation.

I lost both parents now so I understand her pain more than ever
Clark is the reason why she did that
He should be ashamed of himself.

She could ask him what ever made you think I wasn't happy with you!? But if u would have toulded me your secret I would have been happier!
Lana ❤
Clark is so stupid in this scene ! She is so patient with him and he keeps on hurting her again and again !
Clark was so dry here. She’s clearly sad and needed someone to talk to despite their relationship status. If someone is telling you they’re lonely etc. at least try to console them rather than hit them with dry one liners. He’s never been good with words
"I won’t let myself be that dependent again."
Followed by being completely dependent on Lex and ruining her life in the process. Bravo, Lana.
if he has is own compelling experience with the drug why isnt he more empathetic and understanding to lana. clark is empathetic to (elite murders) but not to her. lex is being a manipulative snake but the part where he says he understands is because its the truth and because he went under too. clark is supposed to be morally superior thanks to his parents and he cant even tell when his ex needs a hug. but save lex a million times so he can keep on experimenting, ruing lives and killing lol
So true!!
There have been times where Lana has been very cold to Clark as well.
Because it would worse her condition. To leave her was the hardest thing for him. So he did right when didn’t hug her.
@@LARK-ht7kdand he very much deserved it when she did it.
my god man tell her you love her
So sad that they made Lana never happy even when she was in Hugh school she was never happy not even content.
do you have the part of J.Kent talk with clark? can you upload?
I wished Lana Lang had ended up with Jason. He could have taken her on the road in the Chevy to fight supernatural monsters.
I hate myself for loving u..
Which season and episode?
Season 5, episode 17
Não machuquem a laninha 😢
