Full Recap
Clark causes a minor incident when he brings Alicia to the Talon – Lana is suspicious of Alicia after the last murder attempt. That night in Jason and Lana's apartment, someone gets through a locked door and tries to kill Lana. Everyone suspects Alicia but Clark defends her innocence. While a new staffer for the paper, Tim, tries to get a date with Lois, Clark tries to find a way to clear Alicia's name. He discovers she hasn't been wearing her bracelet but she still protests her innocence.
Jason is attacked outside the Talon by a similar appear-and-disappear killer, and Clark arrives in time to drive the killer off. Jason's mother Genevieve meets him at the hospital and Jason confronts her with his suspicions about how she set him and Lana up – she denies everything A doubting Clark insists that Alicia turn herself in and Alicia agrees, but only if Clark reveals his secret – he refuses and she teleports away.
Clark goes to Sheriff Adams, who reveals she was interrogating Alicia during the attack on Jason. Alicia goes to Chloe and offers to tell her "the truth" about Clark. She teleports Chloe into a car and drives them at high speed toward a wall after calling Clark. She teleports Chloe out as Clark arrives and catches the car as Chloe secretly looks on.
Meanwhile Lois finds that Tim is creepily obsessed with Lana and Jason's "immoral" relationship. Tim is a krypto-mutant who can dissolve into a dust cloud or something and goes to confront Alicia, drugging her. Meanwhile Genevieve meets with Lex and offers him information on how Lionel got out of jail.
Clark goes to visit Alicia and finds her dead, hung from the rafters. Lois reveals what she knows about Tim and Clark goes to confront him. With his ability to "dissolve" and super-strength, Tim holds his own until Clark uses his heat vision to render Tim helpless. He almost strangles Tim but refrains at the last second.
Jason confronts Lex and offers him a job and a chance for them to work together to figure out what Genevieve has going on. Clark is morose over the thought of how his refusal to reveal his secret may have led to Alicia's death. Chloe is concerned over her knowledge but Lois advises her that whoever she knows some secret about, Chloe should keep it. Chloe takes her advice and removes her articles from her Wall of Weird, and she and Clark share a moment over Alicia's grave.
