The finale of Superman and Lois is an excellent conclusion to series respectful to the comics and characters! This episode is directed by Tom Cavanagh from The Flash! Last episode, we had Jordan captured by the Eradicator and transformed into Zeta-Ro! Lois is distraught and Superman is without words. The computer is searching for Jordan, Steel can’t speak, and then asks the computer to continue to search. Laurel is taken away and says they will lose. Lois pleads for Clark to find Jordan. She walks away from Steel. Kyle, Lana, check on Genral Lane.
Sarah asks Jonathan why the Eradicator took away Jordan. Leslie is taken to the DoD base. Lois comes in to talk with her sending away the soldiers. She slams Leslie against the wall. Leslie says Lois’ look is like hers when she failed to save Krypton. Is she possessed by Ursa or Faora-Ul, or another Kryptonian? General Lane sees the citizens protesting. Kyle, Lana, and Sarah lock hands to help with protest. A true family. Superman flies across the world and then out into space. The lost of his son is unbearable. He shouts that is heard around the world. Jordan in normal form hears the shout. Kyle speaks for General Lane. The citizens are worried.
Chrissy says Edge is still loose. Then, the Eradicator appears above the town. Superman flies to a fiery pit to see Jordan, he is thrown down by his possessed son! He hears the voice of Zeta-Ro. He strikes Superman. Of course, Superman cannot hit his son! The Eradicator starts up his blue power, the citizens start to run, and the soldiers cover him with rifles. Zeta-Ro/Jordan slams Superman through the lava pit and into the wall. Steel fires a blast at the Eradicator, but he is thrown down.
The soldiers open fire. The Eradicator blasts them to change them into Kryptonians. Lois notices something in his hand. John Henry says it’s Kryptonite! The Eradicator blasts the Kryptonite and they are all gone. Superman lands, but it is too late. General Lane calls for an evacuation from Kyle, Lana, and Sarah. She asks if they have found Jordan. Superman doesn’t know how to save Jordan. Lois says she can work with John Henry to change Jordan back. She knows Jordan’s dark side and can help him. Superman says it’s Zeta-Ro and Lois knows her son has the strength to resist the conversion.

Superman flies hearing a signal to a field. Chrissy writes up an article about the evacuation. Lana contacts her mother that they are leaving. John Henry is at his work bench. while Jonathan brings him some weapons. General Lane drives up in a van and Lois takes a suitcase from him. John Henry has powered up his kinetic hammer. Superman lands next to the farm house and nods a negative. John Henry shows them the upgraded hammer that needs to be thrown from a far distance. Jonathan is going to protect his mother iwth a rifle from Lois’ suitcase. Zeta-Ro appears above the clouds with the Eradicator and the Kryptonians, he flies to the mines, there are countless crystals, and the Eradicator unleashes his power.
The soldiers and Zeta-Ro land outside of the mines. The computer has detected the Kryptonians and Superman knows it is the mines. There is a traffic jam to leave the town. Steel stands with Superman and they start to fly to the mines. They face the soldiers and Jordan/Zeta-Ro! Steel slams the soldiers with his hammer while Superman punches them out, he is locked in a chokehold, when Jordan walks up. Steel blasts Jordan knocking him out and flies away with him. He lands at the barn, but his power is being depleted. Lois puts the deadset on Jordan’s head and then on herself.
She sees the confrontation of Edge with Zeta-Ro and says she has to go deep in his mind. The Eradicator’s power extends past the mines. At Smallville, Kyle, Lana, and Sarah sees the blue energy and start to run as they see it hit citizens. Kyle sees a woman trapped in an apartment on fire. Lois sees Zeta-Ro and the young Tal-Ro. Jonathan sees Jordan asleep and promises to be a better brother. He wakes up and Zeta-Ro’s eyes flare red. At the diner, everyone is taking cover, the window shatters, and Kyle Richards walks in with the unconscious woman in his arms. A hero. Jonathan blasts Zeta-Ro, but he is still strong, and lifts his brother in a choke hold. Lois screams for her son.

She is in the farm house and checks on Jordan crying while Clark and Jonathan are at the doorway. Jordan says Zeta-Ro told him that he is not strong. Lois pleads that he is strong and should fight. He flashes to all of the times throught the series. Jonathan gasps that he loves his brother and Jordan has returned. Superman flies chased by the Kryptonians, they gang pile on him, but Steel knocks them off with his hammer. He is at 7% power. Superman heads off with Steel into space.
The Eradicator wants to transform Earth into Krypton. Superman flies and holds the Eradicator.
Steel throws his hammer, it streaks, and strikes The Eradicator! He starts to fall to Earth having memories of Vanessa. Superman catches him and brings him to the ground. Leslie is in her Kryptonite cell. Superman and Steel see Tal-Ro on his knees saying he only wanted a famiy. Clark says they are brothers. This show is about family even with some having super powers. The town is being repaired by all of the people of Smallville. Clark provides the narration and then turns to Morgan Edge. He reveals that he is from Krypton to Chrissy and her video camera. Superman says that the devices are no longer a threat. He admits he has to control his powers and that he saw Smallville citizens are now stronger.
Kyle has a backyard barbeque. Jonathan plays Injustice with the football players and he sees Tegan. Lois gives Chrissy a check selling her Metropolis for half of the Smallville Gazette. They are partners. I wonder why they can’t get more reporters. General Lane tells John Henry he is no longer on active duty. He tells Lois that he is going to see his sister and keeps thinking of his wife when he sees Lois. Sarah is flattered by Jordan’s words to Edge and they kiss, the photography brings in strong sunlight. Later, we see Clark and Lois, well dressed, walking out of the house to see Jonathan and Jordan at a tree. Clark drops orange crystals of his father into the ground beside the tree. He could have dug a mile in the ground to drop the crystal. He speaks about his father.
There is a threat given by the John Henry’s computer. Superman moves out at super speed. A capsule lands in front of the farm house. It is John Henry’s daughter, Natalie, she sees Lois and calls her mom, wow! Her landing is a twist on Superman's arrival on Earth. This is a nice cliffhanger to an excellent comic book inspired series! Superman & Lois has offered some dramatic moments, twists, and a long series at 15 episodes! I hope there is a strong villain, there still is Leslie Larr, but I would like another non-Kryptonian enemy; Gog, Blaze, Mister Mxyzptlk? Also, it is high time that Jonathan Kent becomes Superboy! Great work, Todd Helbing and Greg Berlanti!
Five out of Five Kryptonite Crystals!
