Smallville (8.20): Beast

Clark discovers the truth behind Davis' supposed death and angrily confronts Chloe when he realizes that she has been protecting him... but it may already be too late, as Davis ambushes Jimmy and Oliver at the Talon.

Air Date: Thursday, April 30, 2009

• Clark (Tom Welling) discovers that Davis (Sam Witwer) is still alive and confronts Chloe (Allison Mack) about protecting him. Oliver (Justin Hartley) discovers Jimmy (Aaron Ashmore) breaking into Chloe's apartment, but things get rapidly worse after Davis jumps from the shadows and attacks both of them. Michael Rohl directed the episode written by Genevieve Sparling (#3T7470).
• One of "Bruno Mannheim's thugs" (in other words, A.J. from "Stiletto") is found dead in a dumpster, which leads Clark to believe that Davis/Doomsday didn't perish in "Eternal." Source: KryptonSite
• Two police detectives approach Chloe and want to ask her a few questions about Davis Bloome. They think she is covering for him and hiding what she really knows. Davis phones Chloe to tell her that some people have tried breaking in to her apartment. He says that he is "holding them here." Chloe implores him to release them, but Davis says that if he does that, they'll go to the police. Davis compromises and tells Chloe he'll let them go "after we leave Smallville." Jimmy confronts Davis and refers to him as "Cloverfield." Davis backhands him and sends him flying into a wall. After that, Davis threatens Oliver. Chloe insists to the detective that she and Davis are "nothing more than friends." Later in the episode, it seems that Davis has Oliver held in the Talon basement. Source: KryptonSite
• Chloe's situation with Davis (see "Eternal" spoilers) is giving her nightmares. Oliver and Jimmy begin to form a friendship. Chloe makes a decision that will change her friendship with Clark forever. Erica Durance (Lois) and Cassidy Freeman (Tess) do not appear in this episode. Source: KryptonSite
