Thank you! The ghosts were fun, and were happy to move the story on a bit for me. Smallville might be a bit of a disappointment for Lex...*koff* Or a blessing, hard to tell at the moment.
Occasionally the series makes use of (I won't even talk about whether they use it well because it is Smallville after all), what I hesitate to call seer abilities but, Lex's sort of communion with the past and the way that he visualizes people he has lost - Lex's regret made tangible (at least to him). If these visitations were happier, less tinged with angst, or the whiff of the mental illness, I think that Lex would be more open to what they're telling him. Hopefully this set of visitations works out better for him...
