The wedding event of the year is here at last as Knocked Up Lana and Baby Daddy Lex walk down the aisle in the most ill conceived union this side of a drunken night in Vegas.
But not everything is as it seems and blackmail and chicanery are afoot. Now, that's more like an event in Smallville.
The Random:
1. Useless? Yes. Dumb as a bag of rocks? Absolutely. But mind-numbingly beautiful? Very much so, I must give Lana credit for that at least.
2. All right, this is a first, but I’ve gotta give Lana some additional props for creating a scenario to confirm her suspicions about Clark and learn that he’s more than meets the eye. Only, you know, less of a Transformer.
3. Poor Clark gets stood up by Lana and his own dog rejects his wedding proposal. Tough day, CK.
The Awesome:

Bet you thought I made that last one up, didn’t you?

The Awesome:
1. Clark and Mama Kent’s heart to heart is a moment that really grounds the show in a good way, reminding us of the human element of Clark and pain the loss of his father has caused.
2. Lionel promises Lex that he’ll ensure Lana won’t leave him at the altar, but what exactly is he up to? Because you know it’s not good, whatever it is, and his scene with Lex serves as a good counterpart to the familial connection we saw with Clark and Mama Kent.
3. Only Lionel can orchestrate a plan in which a wedding more full of sham than Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise goes off without a hitch, figuring out that Lana knows about Clark and threatening her that if she doesn’t marry Lex, he’ll kill Clark. And then he cleans up Lex’s church mess…and reminds him of it. Father of the year? Villain of the year? Lionel just keeps us guessing.

The WTF?!:
1. Everyone in this episode seems to be having some horrible, acid-induced whacked out dreams from Clark dreaming about killing the happy couple to Lex imagining his unborn child is staring at him through a sonogram with glowing eyes. No wonder they both love Lana, they’re high as kites.
2. So, Dr. Langston knows enough about Lex to know he can contact him directly and talk about half the shady crap he’s capable of so he does what? Oh, that’s right, he confronts him right before his wedding and threatens him with blackmail, which predictably ends with Lex killing him. Beneath a church. Well, all right.
3. Lana’s not the greatest actress on the best of days, so how exactly does she expect to survive in that household when she’s afraid of her husband and worried her father-in-law is going to kill the guy she actually does love?
