** And after, the Kents let Candice stay with them until she gets things sorted out, and don't blame her, and encourage her not to blame herself, for her father's actions.

!!Season Three
[[folder: Episode 4: Too Close To Home]]
* The whole saga of the Kent clan versus Emmitt Pergande, the father of Jonathan's girlfriend.
** Jonathan goes to see Candice, but finds her dad, who makes some vaguely threatening comments about Jon "spreading lies" about him. Jon tries to smooth things over at first, then gives up and states he ''knows'' Emmitt stole his truck in the previous episode. He's willing to let it slide for Candice's sake, but isn't going to pretend Emmitt is anything but small-time sleazy crook. Emmitt punches Jon for "lying."
** Lois finally gets out of Jon that Emmitt did it, and she drives herself, Jon, and Jordan to have words with him. She stands firm against all his veiled threats, refusing to back down, and stating that the only reason she isn't calling the sheriff on him is, again, the Kents don't want to hurt Candice. When Emmitt tells Lois "Don't think I won't lay hands on a woman," Lois just smirks and retorts "Men like you don't scare me." Bear in mind, Lois has just had her first chemo treatment for Stage 3 cancer, and she's still confident Emmitt's no threat to her. Even when he displays the handgun in his belt, she doesn't back down so much as tactically withdraw, letting Jordan know he doesn't need to get involved and making it clear to Emmitt that, gun or no gun, she is ''not'' intimidated by him.
** Finally, ''Clark'' hears the story, declares "No," and heads for the door. When Lois says that this is not a job for Superman, Clark replies "He's not going" in a very upset and dangerous tone. Clark catches up with Emmitt at the diner, and tells Emmitt they need to talk. Emmitt refuses, and Clark makes clear that they ''are going to talk'', either outside or in the diner in front of several people and his daughter. Emmitt loses his temper and tries to shove Clark, [[NoSell to no effect]]. When he tries to punch Clark, Clark blocks and pins him to the bar with one hand, then spells it out for the white trash idiot:
--->'''Clark''': Now, if you ''ever'' threaten my family again, take something that isn't yours, or sell another dangerous drug, ''I will come for you''.\\
'''Emmitt''': Okay!\\
'''Clark''': ''(pulls Emmitt up, then stands in front of him, crossing his arms)'' And my wife will expose who you really are, and you will go away for a very long time. ''(beat)'' Now leave.\\
'''Emmitt''': ''(scurries for the door)''

** More to the point, Superman is ''not'' DumbMuscle. He figures out, from pretty limited clues, that Bizarro is the opposite of him, so takes the fight to the Smallville mines, where there is still X-Kryptonite. Reasoning that, if X-K has no effect on Superman but gives humans a measure of Kryptonian power, inverted that would mean it would affect Bizarro like Green Kryptonite.

* Sam Lane hacked and scrambled a security camera video, from his phone, the moment Jordan got in trouble. He describes it as being easier than Candy Crush. There is a ''[[AsskickingEqualsAuthority reason]]'' he was head of the DOD.

** How awesome is this sequence? Only a short time after it's debut, it became regarded as not only one of the finest pieces about Superman on TV, but one of the finest works about Superman period.

* A subtle one, but it's a testament to Clark's acting ability that Lois' producer just thinks of him as "the guy with the glasses."

!!General
* The CGI is ''[[SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome amazing]]''. It's considered one of the best parts of the series and is a huge step up from previous Arrowverse shows.
