Icarus: I know. It's frustrating. I blame Gough and Millar. They should have planned to end the show after season seven and used THAT season to set up all of the things they did this year. But they were SO attached to the "no tights, no flights" edict they completely forgot that at some point Clark has to become Superman.

Widow's Sting: That's what's cool about friends talking about stuff. They come up with cool ideas that they might not have come to on their own.
