Smallville Season 5 - Episode 14 : Tomb
Chloe is possessed by the spirit of a young girl whose body is sealed in the Talon's walls, and goes searching for the girl's killer while Clark and Lois try to track her down.
Full Recap
It’s a dark and stormy night and Chloe is taking a shower at Lois’ apartment over the Talon. A lightning strike causes the lights to go out and Chloe is unaware of a shadowy figure peering at her through the shower curtain. She gets out and looks for candles as the figure moves by behind her. Clearing off a mirror, Chloe sees a girl behind her, pleading to her, and screams. Lois races up stairs and finds Chloe on the floor begging for help…her wrists cut.
Clark meets Lois at the hospital along with Chloe’s psychiatrist, Dr. Seidel. Seidel believes Chloe did it to herself and plans to treat it…aggressively. Clark talks to Chloe who doesn’t remember much but thinks there was someone in the room. Clark suggests they should mention Chloe’s mother, who had mental problems, but Chloe refuses.
Martha is working on budget papers when Lionel comes to visit and she’s clearly nervous around him. Lionel tries to console her over her loss and she considers his words. At the hospital, Chloe hears a girl’s voice and sees the lights in the bathroom flicker. She goes to investigate and sees something but Lana interrupts. Chloe follows a pair of bloody footprints that only she can see until Dr. Sydell catches up to her and has her sedated.
Lex is trying to find Professor Fine when Lana shows up to visit him about Chloe. She asks him to find some decent doctors from his time at Belle Reve and he agrees to help out. Lex then shows up at the hospital where Clark is and tells him Chloe’s going to be transferred to Belle Reve. Clark is upset even though Lex says Lana agrees Chloe should be moved. After Lex leaves, Clark takes Chloe to Lois’ apartment where Chloe wakes up. She starts hearing the voice again and seeing the girl, even though Clark can’t. The spirit vanishes into a wall and asks Clark to use his x-ray vision. He does so and finds…a skeleton. Yanking open the wall, he finds the skeleton…and a bracelet with kryptonite on it. He staggers out and Chloe touches the bracelet…and there’s a blast of energy. Clark calls the sheriff but when they go into the bathroom they find Chloe acting strange…and in the mirror “Chloe” can see herself as the spirit of the girl.
At the Kent Farm, Clark talks to “Chloe” who is clearly nervous and not herself. “Chloe” vows to try and find the man who killed the girl, and then Clark leaves. “Chloe” goes through her belongings and finds a taser-license identifying herself. Lois shows up to report the police have identified the girl as Gretchen Winters, who disappeared. They go upstairs only to find that “Chloe” has left already. “Chloe” is at her dorm room in Metropolis and wakes up Lois, who wonders what is going on. “Chloe” leaves and bumps into Lex – he and Lana try to calm her down. “Chloe” tasers Lex when he doesn’t get out of her way, and Clark shows up. Lex blames him for Chloe being free.
Clark calls Lois who is conducting an impromptu “aura cleansing” in her apartment and brings her up to speed. A guy arrives at her apartment and introduces himself as Michael, an orderly at the hospital from earlier. Michael claims he’s there to help and his dad ran the place when it was a movie theater, but Lois is suspicious. When he leaves Lois tries to call the hospital but Michael returns and chloroforms her unconscious. “Chloe” goes to an old house…where Michael lives. She asks for help and he lets her in, and “Chloe” talks about what he did to Gretchen and how he confessed to Gretchen and then he killed her. Michael grabs her and “Chloe” first tasers him then starts clubbing him. She’s interrupted by Lois calling for help and goes to the basement to investigate. She starts to free Lois but Michael comes down and knocks her out.
Michael now has them both tied up and is clearly nuts. He reveals that his father made the bracelets with the kryptonite, and puts on one “Chloe.” Then he cuts Lois free and gives her a knife, and tells her to slit her wrists or he’ll shoot Chloe.
At the Planet, Clark is checking the newspaper files and sees a picture of a candlelight vigil for Gretchen, with Michael in the background. He brings up Michael’s record and heads for his house.
An angry Lois throws the knife, taking Michael in the shoulder, but he knocks her over and prepares to stab her. Clark heat-visions the knife out of his hands but is weakened by the kryptonite bracelet and collapses. “Chloe” says she’s Gretchen and appealed to Michael to help her like he did before. When he gets close enough she touches him with the bracelet. Gretchen is now inside of Michael’s body and Chloe is free. Gretchen stabs “herself” with the knife, then emerges out of the body, smiles at Chloe, and departs. Chloe tells an awakening Lois and Clark what happened.
Lana visits Clark at the barn and wants to know why he wasn’t honest about what happened with Chloe. They don’t really resolve anything and she walks out. Clark talks to Martha and suggests she take over Jonathan’s Senate seat – she agrees. At the Daily Planet, Clark and Chloe discuss what happened and why Gretchen chose Chloe. Chloe admits she’s reluctant to see her mother, and Clark advises she should before she loses any chance to ever do so. Later Chloe goes to a mental hospital and sees her mother standing in front of a window. She faces the woman, who touches her face, and they hug.
