This episode had less to do with Clark- and now Kara's- story than with giving Kara Zor-El actress Laura Vandervoort screen time to display her body, along with a couple of other women. A couple of other plot points keep this episode afloat, however.
Kara is desperate to fit in. To do this, she enters the Miss Sweet Corn Beauty Pageant. However, also in the pageant are three kryptonite-infected vixens, two of which see Kara display her superhuman strength power to save Jimmy Olsen from freezing in his car. They use Kara to help them obtain a Smallville treasure map located inside the town's time capsule. However, Kara double-crosses them, since they were so brutally mean to her already. In the meantime, Lex figures that Kara is the "angel" who saved him from death, and confronts her about that.
The plot point involving Lex thinking that Kara is the "angel" is what gives this episode any purpose. However, when Lex has to say a line involving not only being saved from death by Kara but also "from his evil ways," obviously Lex actor Michael Rosenbaum, who is usually the best actor on the show, didn't buy it, because he acted it so flatly that it was corny. The "vixens" were an annoyance. But it's good to have Kara "Kent" in the show.
