Episode Report Card Omar G: B | 1 USERS: B YOU GRADE IT Sun Gave All
By Omar G | Season 7 | Episode 1 | Aired on 2007.09.27
All the water from the dam is heading perilously toward the fishing kid, his dad, and their dog. Maybe now this'll be the best fishing spot on Earth. Fishing Dad grabs his slack-jawed boy and tells him to run. The father trips and hits his head on the world's tiniest boulder. Somehow, he knocked himself out with a rock that could have easily fallen into his shoe. The kid, who maybe would be better off in foster care anyway, tries to wake up the father. The water is coming! Then, suddenly, it freezes. In Clark-time, our hero stands in front of the rising tide (how is the tide rising at this point?) and aims his hot peepers at it. His heat vision sends hot energy (mind magma, if you will) through the entire rushing river. He boils and boils and boils. The entire contents of the dam suddenly dissipate into hot steam. It's like a sauna out here! "We really needed that water, Clark," the woodland creatures say. "Thanks so much." Rather than Clark's heat vision having singed and destroyed everything around, the woods look just fine. I call bullshit. Clark gives the kid, who should be dead from all the hot geothermal activity, a little smile and a nod, and zips off. "Whoa!" the kid mutters. "Hey, by the way, my dad is still unconscious. I don't think he's breathing. Do you think you could help me get him to the hospital, Mister? You have to run off and do other things? Oh, all right. I'll just stay here and cry then. Thanks, Mister!"
