Every People Need a Hero

[claudio_carvalho · 7/10 · 16 May 2007]

While working in the night shift of the Daily Planet, Chloe receives a distress phone call from a woman claiming that she is in danger. Chloe and Lois schedule a meeting with the woman, but a car runs over her and the two friends witness the murder. Meanwhile, the close friend of the Kent's family, Senator Jack Jennings, visits the farm to rest from his campaign for the senate against Lex Luthor. Jonathan is surprised by the visit of Detective Maggie Sawyer, who is investigating the death of the nineteen-year-old stripper that Chloe and Lois witnessed last night. She found a picture of Senator Jennings with the girl and is following the lead. Clark believes Lex is evolved with the crime, but Lex helps him in the investigation. Meanwhile, Chloe and Lois decide to work in the nightclub to investigate the murder. When Lois meets the criminal, she is abducted and her life is in danger.

In "Exposed", Clark unfairly blames Luthor for a crime, while his friend and idol tells lies, and he learns that people are not perfect and need a hero. The gorgeous Lois dancing in the nightclub as a stripper is hilarious, and I found this episode only reasonable. My vote is seven.

Title (Brazil): "Exposto" ("Exposed")

I love references

That's very king to pay honor do dukes! Wonderful.

Probably the show's most inappropriate episode

If you are conservative at all, chances are you will be offended by this fairly obscene episode.

Senator Jennings is running for re-election as Kansas senator, and visits his friend Jonathan Kent's farm to try and gain support in the town. Meanwhile, Chloe gets a distress call from a young woman in the slum of Metropolis. Chloe and Lois get there in time to see the young woman hit by a car. As it turns out, this woman was a stripper at the nearby nightclub. As investigation ensues, detectives discover pictures of Jennings in an intimate relationship with the stripper. The authorities, thanks to Lex and Clark's help, discover that Jennings ordered the car run-over to try and bury the dirt of his scandalous relationship. However, this plan backfires on him, and he has to drop out of the campaign.

The only tiny-good thing about this episode is Clark's increasing distrust in Lex, as Clark believes Lex was involved in the murder. But this episode is so inappropriate, that if you buy or rent this season on DVD, just skip the episode 'Exposed.' Simply said, it ruins the proud and famous character of Lois Lane.
