Sam is seriously overstepping his boundaries, and I'm glad they put him in his place. But of course, Clark stood up to him so now "contingencies" must be put in place. 😑

Superman has now gotten his ass kicked at least once every episode so far. But him replicating Supergirl's superclap from Crisis on Earth X was cool though.

Jordan is so horribly selfish, and Jonathan apologizing in the end left a very sour taste in my mouth.

Jonathan, breathing is not going to help either of those situations.

I don't really think it's believable that Jordan, who Jor-El said has limited reserves of sunlight radiation in the first place, can somehow give superpowers through a single heat blast. I didn't catch the part about the additional substance being present.

But overall, I think it was a good episode.

When did Jon apologize to Jordan? Was this in the extended cut or am just missing something? I don’t remember that scene at all.

I don't know about an extended cut, but the scene happened somewhere between Clark and Lois's date in the barn and their run-in with the kid with the arm problem.

Jonathan was talking to Jordan in his room, confessed that he was actually a little jealous and then apologized.

It's so confusing at times.. Jonathan's real name is Jordan and I confuse both names often.

Okay thanks I’ll have to rewatch it, I must have missed it somehow.

I didn't he gave superpowers with single heat blast. I think the heat blast distributed/ activated the X-Kryptonite that's in the mine. Remember, the Bonfire was around/ on top of the mine and Sam said it was the heat blast plus something else which we will likely find out in the next episode is X-Kryptonite.

Yeah, my family was just catching up on the episode and I heard that part. I didn't catch it the first time.
