A Lesson From Smallville

Oct. 27, 2022

Here’s the Theme song from the TV series “Smallville” (2001 – 2010)

SAVE ME (CHORUS)

Somebody save me. Let your warm hands break through Somebody save me I don’t care how you do it Just save, save. Come on I’ve been waiting for you

Here’s one interesting episode “Pariah” Season 4 Episode 12 originally aired on Feb. 2, 2005. When Lana and Jason are attacked by an unseen assailant, suspicions initially fall on Clark’s new girlfriend, Alicia. Clark is forced to take a hard, truthful look at Alicia, who’s hurt by his lack of loyalty.

There’s a part of me that never feels freer
than when I’m with Alicia. – Clark

ALICIA: I couldn’t give up my powers again it was worse than being in prison what would you do if somebody told you that you couldn’t use your abilities?
CLARK: I don’t know. But I would… I would give them away in a second before I’d use them to hurt someone.
ALICIA: Yeah, so would I. I’m better now, Clark. You know that. I just want people to accept me for who I am. I think if you’re honest with yourself, you’ll realize that deep down inside, you want that to.
CLARK: We’ll just go to the sheriff. We’ll tell her what happened. ALICIA: All right, I’ll go with you… if you tell her about your powers, too.
CLARK: I can’t do that.
ALICIA: Why not, Clark? Don’t you understand that… once people know the truth
about us, then they’ll have to accept us for who we really are?
CLARK: I’m sorry.
ALICIA: Yeah, I’m sorry, too. Letting people know about us is the only way that we’re ever gonna be free, Clark. Don’t hate me for wanting that. Goodbye, Clark.
JONATHAN KENT: What happened to Alicia…wasn’t your fault.
CLARK: If I had believed her, she wouldn’t be dead.
JONATHAN K.: Clark, she was framed. There’s… there’s no way you could’ve known that.
CLARK: I could’ve trusted her. Did you know that Alicia wanted me to go to the sheriff with her and tell her everything?
Alicia thought that if people knew the truth about me and what I can do, they wouldn’t be so quick to judge her. But I didn’t go. I was too afraid of what people might think, how they would react. What if she was right? Because if people knew what I can do and who I really am… maybe she’d still be alive.
And I just can’t forgive myself for that.

A friend of mine could have just taken off and disappeared, probably with his girlfriend but he thought he won’t last long and really complicate things for his girlfriend. He found out he was right about a month ago, Sept. 19, 2022.

Somebody save me
Let your warm hands break right through
Somebody save me
I don’t care how you do it
Just save, save
Come on
I’ve been waiting for you
