I wish she'd let it grow out a smidge too. It looks fine from the front but it's still too short in the back so in profile her hair looks weird. The asymmetrical 'do was okay last year when it was straight (not my favorite but not a trainwreck either) but curled it looks weird.

He doesn't even have a plan. Basically, the Orb was not Zod. It's some puppetmaster yet to be revealed, who freed the army for whatever reason. Zod and his army are possibly clones created from before the war and made with no powers. They're basically going, "So! Hey! We have no idea what we're doing here, no goals, no purpose, no powers, no motivation! Uh! Let's...work on that!" There have been FotW more complex than that! Callum doesn't have the physical presence to coast by on just a cool aura for this part, and there's no motivation or goal in the writing thus far, so... Lex or Davis caliber, he is not.

I thought the exact same thing the first time I watched their two scenes, but the second time when I put on my fanwanking goggles I was more okay with it. I agree she should be reaming him out for his Batman bullshit and I was really excited to see that, but I think right now she's just totally stuck on being upset with herself for everything that went down. I'm not sure if she's even processing Clark's behavior yet. Hell, in the second scene, he's like, "Oh and the world is going to end in a year btw," and she doesn't even hear it in favor of talking about Jimmy.

I don't know. I found the writing definitely shaky, and neither of them are really acting like themselves, but I'm waiting to see how it rolls.

On the other hand, Chloe being upset at Lois moving in on her sidekick territory was unbelievably sad, but I was strangely encouraged by it. That was the first time in a while that Chloe has had any reaction at all to losing something. So I'm hoping they're going somewhere with that. If they're really trying to go somewhere with this rift, I'm along for the ride. If they're only stirring shit up with Chlark so Clois looks better, then this is all a waste. Wait and see, I guess.
