Smallville 8.12 "Bulletproof" – description

Smallville episode 8.12 “Bulletproof”
Airdate: January 22, 2009

We all can’t wait to see Tom Welling put on the cape and tights.

“Red and blue blur” – that’s the nickname for the new Metropolis hero, and in one trailer, there’s a kid who idolized the new hero with his own version of the costume. The local folks of Smallville shouldn’t have a hard time hard guessing this mysterious hero’s identity since there is no other kid in all of Smallville who loves to wear the primary colors like Kent does.

Are we ever going to see Kent wearing Superman’s costume? The producers don’t want to say anything final but they certainly keep teasing us.

In the episode “Bulletproof”, we still won’t see Clark with a cape, but at least we see him in blue, when he goes undercover as a police officer.

JOHN JONES IS SHOT — Clark (Tom Welling) discovers John Jones (guest star Phil Morris) was shot while working as a police officer, so Clark dons the uniform and goes undercover to find the culprit.  Meanwhile, Lana (Kristin Kreuk) confronts Tess (Cassidy Freeman) and tells her Lex isn’t the man she thinks he is.  Lana’s shocking news forces Tess to reevaluate her position as the head of Luthorcorp.  Morgan Beggs directed the episode written by Bryan Miller.
