Review of Smallville: "Recruit"

Opens with Lois (hawwwwt!) in a drinking game with two football jocks. One bowls out. The other falls over soon after. Woo! Lois is a champ!

Jock #2 follows Lois as she's struggling to stay sober ("...the world is NOT spinning around...").

"Let's play a game we both win?" He says. Dumbass. She shuts him down (hawwwt!). Moron then puts his hand on her only to meet some redirection and a nice snappy front push kick to the gut. Lois stands over him (hawwwt!).

Cops later find the guy paralyzed and arrest Lois. D'oh. Some kick!

Then the whole "Save Me" by Remo Zero credits. Blah, every show has it.

Chloe knows Clark's secret and continuously clues him in that she knows. Guess he's just really clueless. Moron.

Clark gets recruited by the Metropolis University Bulldogs, full scholarship, the works. Some goofball with long hair...

MEH FUCK IT. I SAID WHEN I WANNA, but I REALLY DON'T WANNA RIGHT NOW! As in... review this episode. Too much f'n effort.

Episode gets 8/10 because it deals with Clark taking responsibility for his powers and quitting football, and because the exchange with Lois and Clark (hmmmm, Lois and Clark) was just great. I can already see a "Lois and Clark" (for morons, read: a la Lois and Clark TV show) scenario forming. I still think it was too early to introduce Lois, but whatever. But yeah, the last conversation Lois and Clark had in this episode was priceless.
