Smallville: Perry

What a way to introduce Perry White! I could not believe that that guy was him.

Perry does what Lois will later do: makes a suicide jump to be rescued by Clark, but takes the precaution of tying a rope to his foot.

Powers out of control, like loss of powers, is a familiar hazard for Superman. Occasional loss of powers is sometimes useful for allaying suspicions. It is finally recognized that Clark's body processes solar energy, as John Byrne said.

Lex agrees to psychotherapy. Perry has something on Lionel, will return to the Planet and owes Clark who should look him up when he goes to Metropolis - so one more small step has been taken.
