10
11	* AntagonistTitle: The episode's title refers to Bizarro, Clark's EvilTwin.
12	* BackFromTheDead: Chloe is pronounced dead, but manages to come back thanks to her healing powers.
13	* BigDamPlot: Clark's fight with Bizarro breaks the Reeves Dam causing a flood.

17	* GlamourFailure: Bizarro's {{Glamour}} doesn't work while under sunlight.
18	* MegatonPunch: Clark executes this on Bizarro twice in this episode. In the teaser, he sends Bizarro flying through the air, and during his climatic fight with the doppelganger, he sends him flying VERY high into the sky where Martian Manhunter grabs and takes him away.

27	-->'''J'onn''': You've learned a lot from your time in Smallville. These people have made you who you are.\
28	'''Clark''': They won't always be here. Losing Lana has made me realize, no matter how close I get, someday they'll all be gone.
