Anyone ever think Lana was meant to become Clark first big adversary long before Lex become fit and anyone else that comes after Lex?
Throughout the show, as I recall, watching them all, seem like Lana was always juggling between being good and bad. And she exhibits all the traits that would lead a person to villainy. Orphan as a child, abandoned and neglected by her guardian (supposedly) abandoned by her boyfriend, well sort of, but y’all know what I mean. Constantly at target for stocking and near harassment and possible attempted death.. Seems like the paints her to being somebody who is looking for love and acceptance only to be granted, neglect, forgotten, and . Her to be more of herself less than what people want her to be. Hence when she is under a weird wearing skimpy outfits and talking more freely and unguarded. that is until we see her again in Paris in season four, now letting a little bit show, but she’s still the small town good girl. Then in the episode wrath when she receives power like Clark, and she goes on a rampage claiming that she’s doing that to protect Clark. But then she turns around and she teases and go to him about having the powers of a prefers to live on and hide out on a farm. Twice she uses video breaks up, rather than break up face-to-face. then there’s my favorite cherry on the top of this interesting pie, she’s wearing a piece of the meteor that killed her parents. And calling it a good luck, charm, please! If that then how come she doesn’t have a piece of a meteor that killed Jason? looking back at all the seasons before season eight, I would have loved it even more if Lana went down the dark side, and Clark ended up having to defeat her. And be a guy with moral punishing those who deserve to be of the law, Clark gives her the option of turning in and doing her time or he goes against his personal principles and tells her to leave Smallville and never come back. accepts his conditions and leave Smallville to never return. Or if she does prove herself to being remorseful, she does turn herself in, and she spent some time in prison. But her time in prison is not wasted at all. She dies into law books with the help of her biological father, she passes the bar exam, and when she is released from prison, she becomes an international lawyer.
