Super...Lana?

So I'm watching Smallville last night and I have no idea on what the hell is going on. All I see is Lana in this alien technology suit that gives her abilities like Clark. I'm like, "wth?!" So apparently she's trying to save the world with powers that she gained from this suit. I have been out of the loop for a long time when it comes to Smallville, but damn...this show has been running since I was a senior in high school AND it's still freaking good. Whoever the writers are for this show, go make some movies as well because you guys are killin'. And oh yeah, Lana (Kristin Kruek) still looks good.
