History Heartwarming / Smallville

** Clark finally opening up and telling Lois ([[SecretSecretKeeper who actually already knows]]) his secret. Followed immediately by [[TheGlomp her flinging herself at him]], knocking them both into a pile of paper, kissing him and saying "What took you so long?". Made all the more heartwarming when one considers that she is literally the only person he ''ever'' tells when not under duress.
*** Technically, he did the same thing with Lana... only to scramble for the ResetButton when she proves she is TooDumbToLive with it.

** Lois, so pissed off about Tess' predicament, ''[[ArmorPiercingSlap slapping]]'' Lex unconscious becomes this if you think it through. The two women had an extremely rocky relationship, with Lois quick to accuse Tess of betrayal as late into the show as "Dominion". But despite this, they still, in some sense of the word, were ''friends'', and the fact that Lois is so angry about the situation becomes heartwarming because of it.

* During an interview between Creator/TomWelling and Creator/MichaelRosenbaum for the latter's show ''Podcast/InsideOfYou'', the two discuss how Tom had to get up very early in the morning and drive down to the set, and how the rest of the cast (Tom thinks it was John Schneider (Jonathan) who spearheaded the notion) signed a letter to the network requesting that Tom be given a driver because they were afraid [[ActorExistenceFailure Tom would end up in an accident and the show would end as a result]].

** Jor-El's entire speech in the finale, when removing Clark's inhibition against {{flight}}, and the montage of saves throughout the entire series. Comes with the revelation that for all the trouble with Jor-El, the entirety of Clark's trials have been to save everyone he did, allowing him to grow into the hero the world needed. Comes with a CMOA when he gives an [[WorldOfCardboardSpeech epic]] punch to Darkseid before flying to the Fortress to retrieve the iconic suit.

* "Vengeance": Clark has disappeared and Martha, worried that he's in denial over Jonathan's death, goes to Chloe to see if she knows anything. While she doesn't, Martha says she is glad that Chloe is there to keep the secret together. Chloe assures her that Clark is going to be fine and they hug.

--->'''Ryan''': I don't need them any more. I've got you.

-->'''Chloe''': I knew it was you! It's always you! (''hugs him'')
** At the end of the episode, Clark ''finally'' gathers the courage to ask Chloe to go to the Spring Formal with him. [[spoiler:Sadly, this only leads to many seasons of unresolved ShipTease.]]

** Despite the DownerEnding, there's the fact that Clark, [[spoiler:under the influence of Red Kryptonite, ''still wants Lana with him''.]]

-->'''Clark''': When I was in the tank, I saw my earliest memory. [Lara] was putting me in the ship. Her only fear was that no one would love me.
-->'''Martha''': I can't imagine the agony of putting my son in a lifeboat and sending him across the stars.
-->'''Clark''': [[{{Superdickery}} Because of Jor-El, I always thought that my biological parents were monsters.]] But she wasn't. I just can't believe I forgot about her.
-->'''Martha''': You didn't, Clark. Your first word was "Lara." Your father and I could never figure out what it meant. Now we know.
-->'''Clark''': I wish she could have met you, to see what a great mom I have.
-->'''Martha''': She knows, Clark. A mother's love never dies.

-->'''Chloe''': You were always the one good thing in my life, and if I didn't tell you enough, I care about you more than you'll ever know. Please find out who did this, Clark. You're the only one who can.

** It does have a DownerEnding, but it is still very heartwarming to see Chloe going to Clark who is mourning at [[spoiler:Alicia's]] grave, showing her support and saying that she will always be here and subtly dropping hints that she already knows about his secret and isn't going to leave him for that.
** Lois finds Clark with [[spoiler:Alicia's killer]] and is close to killing him. Lois calmly talks him out of it and gives him a CooldownHug as Clark breaks down in grief. This is the first real sign that Lois truly cares about Clark.

-->'''Jor-El''': Kal-El, you must continue your education. You cannot stop.
-->'''Clark''': She is my friend. She needs help!
-->'''Jor-El''': Your destiny is far greater than saving one human life.
-->'''Clark''': No! I won't let her die!

--->'''Chloe''': (''shivering'') I know you can run faster than a speeding bullet, Clark... Take me along for the ride.

--->'''Chloe''': [[InnocentAliens I think you are so amazing.]] [[TheCape You save people's lives and take]] [[ThinkNothingOfIt zero credit for it]]. [[HumansAreFlawed If more humans are like you]], [[TheParagon the world would be a better place]].

--->'''Chloe''': Smallville needs you more than I do, Clark, go. (''Clark hesitates'') GO!
** It is made more moving at the end, as [[spoiler:in exchange for Chloe's life, Clark promises to return by sundown. He fails to return in time and his powers vanish. Indirectly, he sacrificed his abilities to save her]].
*** [[spoiler:Of course, after that, he immediately rushes to Lana in pursuit of a relationship for the... God knows how many times, in a particularly [[{{Narm}} narmy]] scene.]]

* "Splinter": Clark gets mad at Chloe for telling his secret to Lionel. [[spoiler:Silver Kryptonite has made him extremely paranoid.]] When it is all over:
-->'''Chloe''': Look, Clark, I understand that you haven't been yourself, but you know that I would never tell Lionel your secret. I'd never tell anyone. I'd die before I'd ever betray you.
* "Solitude": Martha is infected by a Kryptonian virus, and she tells Clark how much she loves him and that she would willingly give her life for him. [[spoiler:It is all a set-up, courtesy of Brainiac.]] When it is over, they have another talk ending in a long hug.
** When [[spoiler:Brainiac]] turns against Clark and incapacitates him with a piece of Green Kryptonite, despite being almost frozen to death the last time she was at the Fortress, Chloe immediately rushes to Clark's aid when she figures out that [[spoiler:Fine is a bad guy]]. Pretty [[{{Awesome/Smallville}} awesome]] when you realize she basically saved him from Kryptonite, [[spoiler:Brainiac, and ''Zod'']]. She didn't escape completely unscathed, and stayed at the Kents, wrapped up and thawing out in front of a fire:
--->'''Chloe''': You know, next time I head up north, I got to remember to pack a parka.
--->'''Clark''': How did you get up there anyway?
--->'''Chloe''': You left your key in the cave. (''hands the key to Clark'') Seriously, Clark, you've got to be more careful. I mean, if I can get up there, anyone can.
--->'''Clark''': You know, [[HumanAlien Professor Fine]] said that human beings were insignificant and couldn't be depended on. He obviously don't know you very well.

--->'''Alex''': Uncle Clark, Uncle Clark! Make me fly!
--->'''Clark''': Hey! I missed you, little guy. (''picks him up and swings him about'')

* "Vengeance": Clark has disappeared and Martha, worried that he's in denial over [[spoiler:Jonathan's death]], goes to Chloe to see if she knows anything. While she doesn't, Martha says she is glad that Chloe is there to keep the secret together. Chloe assures her that Clark is going to be fine and they hug.

-->'''Clark''': What if something goes wrong? I don't want to leave you here.
-->'''Chloe''': You have to. (''Clark turns to leave'') Clark... I don't know if I'm ever gonna see you again. (Cue [[BigDamnKiss Big Damn]] NowOrNeverKiss)

* "Hydro": Both Lana and Clark demand Chloe to keep secrets from each other, and she is torn between her loyalties and is always blamed when the other finds out something. Clark accuses her of not telling him that [[spoiler:Lana is pregnant with Lex's child]]. She almost starts to cry and Clark feels bad for upsetting her and apologizes with a hug.

** When Clark is finally freed of [[spoiler:his phantom-induced nightmare]], Chloe comes in and he gives her a big hug [[spoiler:because she [[DiedInYourArmsTonight died in his arms in the nightmare]]]]. She looks a little surprised, but it is really sweet.
--->'''Clark''': I don't know what I'd do without you, Chloe.
--->'''Chloe''': Oh, is this when I'm supposed to cue the Music/BarryManilow music?
--->'''Clark''': No, seriously. You mean a lot more to me than you know.

-->'''Chloe''': Clark, there's something inside of me! I don't want to go to the ER and wait for the doctors to figure out what it's gonna do to me! How accurate's your heat vision?
-->'''Clark''': Chloe, don't even go there.
-->'''Chloe''': Is it pinpoint accurate?
-->'''Clark''': Chloe, I'm not gonna burn you!

--->'''Clark''': Hold on to me. You can't move.
--->'''Chloe''': Okay.
--->'''Clark''': (''as she shudders and screams in pain'') I'm sorry!
--->'''Chloe''': (''teeth clenched'') Just get it out!

* "Blue": Chloe freaking out a bit when she sees Clark injured [[spoiler:after being de-powered by a ring created from Blue Kryptonite. Then she frantically stops him from trying to break it because he could saw his fingers off]].
* "Gemini": [[spoiler:Chloe and Jimmy are locked in an elevator with a bomb. Chloe admits she is meteor-infected, but Jimmy gives her a NowOrNeverKiss.]]

-->'''Clark''': Speaking of heartbeats, you didn't have one for over eighteen hours.[[note]]For some reason, we don't get to see any BeautifulDreamer moments...shame.[[/note]]
-->'''Chloe''': I was hoping we could skip the lecture and go straight to the "welcome back" dinner. I'm starving.
-->'''Clark''': It's fifteen hours longer than the last time, Chloe. I've been sitting here, literally, trying to think about what to say at your funeral.

** Sure, [[spoiler:he did go mildly psycho, but it is at Lex, so who's complaining? The return of Pete Ross]] provides many heartwarming moments, like hacking into Lex's computer to protect Chloe, the "thank you" after Clark saves him, and the final hug between Chloe and him after he presents her with a rose. [[spoiler:Pete is the UnluckyChildhoodFriend of Chloe, in case you've forgotten.]]

--->'''Chloe''': If it means saving Clark, I'd climb Mount Everest.

--->'''Chloe''': Out of all the planets across the universe, you decided to send your only son to this one, to Earth! You trusted us to protect him! Now please, Jor-El, I need you to trust me. [[AnguishedDeclarationOfLove I love your son!]] He's in danger and he needs our help!

* "Descent": After [[spoiler:Lionel]] dies, Chloe comes over to rescue Clark from being drowned in {{Angst}}.
-->'''Clark''': Another person who treated me like a son and died because of it.
-->'''Chloe''': Clark--
-->'''Clark''': Jor-El died getting me on that ship. My dad died of a heart attack from the powers he took on protecting me. And now [[spoiler:Lionel's]] been murdered for protecting my secret.
-->'''Chloe''': They did die for you, Clark. But ultimately, they died for all of us. There was a reason those men were in your life--each of them added something to the man that you are today.
* "Sleeper": Jimmy coming to Chloe's rescue when she is tortured for information. [[DistractedByTheSexy Now...how does she look so beautiful when she is so messed up...?]]

-->'''Chloe''': Clark, this is not the time to be stubborn, okay? Don't do this. We need you! ''I'' need you!

** After Chloe has been rendered catatonic by [[spoiler:Brainiac's attack]], Clark visits her at the hospital, holds her hand, and says he is sorry for letting her confront [[PhysicalGod Kara]] [[spoiler:(Brainiac in disguise)]] alone.

-->'''Chloe''': Clark! Where have you been? I've been waiting for you.
-->'''Clark''': I'm sorry, I got held up in a Russian work camp.

-->'''Davis''': (''to Chloe'') If you found real love, hold on to it. And if anyone says that it's a cliche, I'll personally kick their asses.

-->'''Clark''': (''hugs her'') Don't worry about anything else. (''Chloe briefly looks troubled, but then smiles; at the same time, Clark also smiles with a hint of wistfulness'')

-->'''Chloe''': Clark, if you were lying on that couch, I would do whatever you asked, down to the letter. I wouldn't hesitate. Now trust him.
* "Commitment": Clark giving an impromptu speech at Chloe and Jimmy's engagement party.

-->'''Chloe''': Thanks for not giving up on me.
-->'''Clark''': I'd never give up on you, Chloe. You know that.
-->'''Chloe''': I just hope that if it turned out that there was no other choice, you would choose to do the right thing.
-->'''Clark''': What choice would that be?
-->'''Chloe''': To do what's best for the world... and not for me. Know that I'd understand.
-->'''Clark''': Well, as long as I'm around, that's never gonna happen.
* "Infamous": More like NightmareFuel, but Chloe telling [[spoiler:Doomsday]] to stay away from Clark.
* "Turbulence": Chloe actually stops [[spoiler:Davis from morphing into '''[[SuperpoweredEvilSide Doomsday]]''']] with just a hand on his shoulder. Now that is some ComicBook/{{Superman}}-calibre CooldownHug... okay, it is not exactly a hug, but the spirit is there.

-->'''Clark''': Look, I don't know--
-->'''Chloe''': (''transformed into Lois by [[LiteralGenie Zatanna]]''): Okay, Clark, you don't have to know. If you won't believe in yourself, then let me believe in you. Okay? I know that deep inside, you don't wanna just be a normal guy, sitting behind a desk, reporting on disasters while you could be out there stopping them! Now use the power you feel. The world needs you. (''Clark turns, but a golden flash makes him turn back to see Chloe has been transformed back'')
-->'''Clark''': Chloe? But that's--
-->'''Chloe''': Impossible? Only if your mind. Sometimes you just need a leap of faith. Come on, Clark, you can do this. Up, up and away.

** Chloe meeting [[spoiler:Clone!Jor-El]] and telling him how Clark's upbringing with the Kents made him into the most amazing person she has ever met.

* "Conspiracy": When Zod gets shot, Clark chooses to save his life, despite knowing that Zod could very well become a monster, simply because its what [[spoiler:Clone!Jor-El]] wanted him to do.

** Also, Martha set up her own secret identity as [[spoiler:the Red Queen]], became a master manipulator, takes over Checkmate and, by extension, the entire government's attempts at studying aliens, all so she could protect Clark.

** [[spoiler:The ghost of Jonathan Kent]] returns to console Clark over his doubts of ever becoming Earth's greatest hero after [[{{Jerkass}} Jor-El]] [[WhatTheHellHero yells at him]] for [[spoiler:nearly killing a clone of Lex]] and for having darkness in his heart. [[spoiler:Jonathan]] gives Clark an inspiring speech in which he readily admits his own flaws (namely [[HotBlooded his temper]]), insists that Clark can become the hero he's meant to be despite what Jor-El claimed, and tells his son he has faith that Clark will overcome his coming trials.

** Finally some long-undue healthy moments. Clark and Oliver decide [[spoiler:they could trust Tess and tell her that. She hurriedly leaves the room so that they won't see her tears of joy of being accepted. And at the end, she brought a copy of ''Literature/PeterPan'' to Alexander, and it is wonderful how someone whose entire emotion range used to be PsychoticSmirk could become a loving mother to the boy]].

* "Icarus": [[spoiler:Carter's HeroicSacrifice allows him to be with his lover Shayera. Now they can begin their reincarnation and [[BecauseDestinySaysSo eventually reunite]]. By the time the series ended, they could very well be newly-born babies at that point.]]

-->'''Clark''': How'd you do it? Trust me, I mean--back then, before you found out.
-->'''Chloe''': I had my suspicions.
-->'''Clark''': But that's what I mean. You knew I was lying to you, and still you looked me in the eye every day and you trusted me.
-->'''Chloe''': I guess that's the true test of believing in someone--knowing that their lies are there to protect you. It's not really trust if you ask someone to explain themselves.
-->'''Clark''': But that's hard.
-->'''Chloe''': It's really hard.
-->'''Clark''': You never gave up.
-->'''Chloe''': And I never will.

** [[spoiler:After Martha survives an assassination, Chloe visits her at the hospital.]]
-->'''Martha''': We both needed to leave for Clark to stand up on his own. But maybe we stepped away too far.
-->'''Chloe''': Mrs. Kent, I never stopped watching his back.
-->'''Martha''': Clark needs you as much as the world needs him. You're part of this family, Chloe.
-->'''Chloe''': You know, growing up, I never really had much of a mother figure to look up to--until I met you. You really taught me what it meant to take care of the people that I love.
-->'''Martha''': And as Clark's oldest friend, I can't think of anyone better to watch over him.

** When the second half of [[spoiler:Chloe's marriage certificate]] is revealed, and apparently [[spoiler:not only are she and Oliver now married, but Oliver is leaving to go with her on her quest to find more superheroes!]]

* "Scion": Pretty much all of Clark and [[spoiler:Conner]]'s interactions.

** [[spoiler:Lois and Clark discussing their upcoming wedding, the vows, the little Oliver and Chloe moments, and Clark walking Lois down the aisle]].
** Superman [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome saves the world by moving literally moving a planet]], and as he looks down to Earth, [[TimeSkip the scene fades into a comic book being read as a bedtime story by Chloe to her young son]], wearing his Warrior Angel pajamas, who glances over at [[spoiler:his toy bow & arrow]] before going to bed.

** Jor-El's entire speech in the finale, when removing Clark's inhibition against {{flight}}, and the montage of saves throughout the entire series. Comes with the revelation that [[spoiler:for all the trouble with Jor-El, the entirety of Clark's trials have been to save everyone he did, allowing him to grow into the hero the world needed]]. Comes with a CMOA when he gives an [[WorldOfCardboardSpeech epic]] punch to [[spoiler:Darkseid]] before flying to the Fortress to retrieve the iconic suit.

** Lois, so pissed off about [[spoiler:Tess' predicament]], ''[[ArmorPiercingSlap slapping]]'' Lex unconscious becomes this if you think it through. The two women had an extremely rocky relationship, with Lois quick to accuse Tess of betrayal as late into the show as "Dominion". But despite this, they still, in some sense of the word, were ''friends'', and the fact that Lois is so angry about the situation becomes heartwarming because of it.

** Clark super-speeding miles away to get Ryan the brain surgeon he needs from the same episode as well as accompanying response is also this:

** Superman [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome saves the world by moving literally moving a planet]], and as he looks down to Earth, [[TimeSkip the scene fades into a comic book being read as a bedtime story by Chloe to her young son]], wearing his Warrior Angel pajamas, who glances over at [[spoiler:his toy bow & arrow]] before going to bed.

* In "Ryan", when Dr. Garner arrives with Sheriff Ethan to take Ryan back and walks towards the boy, Clark and Jonathan step forward and block him. Crosses over with CrowningMomentOfAwesome.

* During an interview between Tom Welling and Creator/MichaelRosenbaum for the latter's YouTube show ''Inside of You'', the two discuss how Tom had to get up very early in the morning and drive down to the set of ''Smallville'', and how the rest of the cast signed a letter to the network requesting that Tom be given a driver because they were afraid [[ActorExistenceFailure Tom would end up in an accident and the show would end as a result]].

* In "Nicodemus," Martha recounts the moment that she first met Jonathan. That scene was insanely heartwarming.
* All of Clark's scenes with Ryan in "Stray."

* In "Reaper," Lex arranges, at Clark's request, for the Metropolis Sharks to come to Smallville and play a little scrimmage for Mr. Fordman, who was slowly dying, with his son as their quarterback.

** Also, Lex gives a check to Jonathan and Martha with an amount equal to the "exact amount of the cows and land lost" earlier in the season. It's nice to see that...[[HarsherInHindsight still with how he and Jonathan went out...]]

* In "Duplicity," Jonathan tells Pete [[SoProudOfYou he's proud of him]] for helping Clark.
* In "Red," after Red!Clark shoves Jonathan against his truck, Pete runs to Jonathan's side and asks "Are you okay, sir?" It's obvious he cares for the entire Kent family.
* In "Lineage," Clark earlier blew up at Chloe for prying into his life when someone claiming to be his mother arrives in Smallville, and touched a sore spot when he told Chloe to look for her own mother, not knowing [[ParentalAbandonment she left her at a young age]]. The two make up again after Clark apologizes, and he comforts her over her MissingMom:

* In "Ryan," when Dr. Garner arrives with Sheriff Ethan to take Ryan back and walks towards the boy, Clark and Jonathan step forward and block him. Crosses over with CrowningMomentOfAwesome.

* Clark finally returning home in "Phoenix."

* In "Truth," Chloe inhales a truth gas that makes it impossible for anyone to lie to her, but is also killing her. After finding out, she sets out to uncover Clark's secret, even though Clark himself is immune to her. Clark manages to track down an antidote and injects her with it after she passes out. Kryptonite-induced powers are known to bring the worst out of everyone, but Chloe fears that it only brought out her true self, tearfully apologizes, and admits she's afraid that she has used up all her apologies, especially after what happened in "Delete." Clark says that it won't be today and gives her a long, heartfelt hug.

*** [[spoiler:Of course, after that, he immediately rushes to Lana in pursuit of a relationship for the...God knows how many times, in a particularly [[{{Narm}} narmy]] scene.]]

** In the dream, Lex and Lana go the the Christmas party at the Kents, where Senator Jonathan Kent announces Lex is receiving the Kansas Humanitarian Award for his work towards the homeless. He also tells Lex he is the finest man he ever knew and [[LikeASonToMe would be very proud to have him as a son]]. Lex marvels that he has never felt happier. Then...inevitably, the [[{{TearJerker/Smallville}} tear-jerking]] DreamApocalypse comes by...

-->'''Chloe''': You have to. (''Clark turns to leave'') Clark...I don't know if I'm ever gonna see you again. (Cue [[BigDamnKiss Big Damn]] NowOrNeverKiss)

* "Blue": Chloe freaking out a bit when she sees Clark injured [[spoiler:after being de-powered by Blue Kryptonite. Then she frantically stops him from trying to break it because he could saw his fingers off]].

* The end of "Homecoming." The handling of the development of Lois and Clark's relationship is glorious.

*** Technically, he did the same thing with Lana...only to scramble for the ResetButton when she proves she is TooDumbToLive with it.

** Lois, so pissed off about [[spoiler:Tess's predicament]], ''[[ArmorPiercingSlap slapping]]'' Lex unconscious becomes this if you think it through. The two women had an extremely rocky relationship, with Lois quick to accuse Tess of betrayal as late into the show as "Dominion." But despite this, they still, in some sense of the word, were ''friends'', and the fact that Lois is so angry about the situation becomes heartwarming because of it.

* "Bizarro": Chloe consoling Clark over [[CreatorsPet Lana's]] [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt supposed death]], how he almost killed Lex, and how Bizarro reminds him of the monster he could be and that he is not human. Clark also reassures Chloe that he would be there when she feels right about talking her meteor infection.

* The many warm moments where Jonathan and Martha comfort Clark, give him sage advice, and just generally are awesome parents, definitely count as this trope, and these many moments help set the warm tone of Season One.

* In the episode "Nicodemus," Martha recounts the moment that she met Jonathan. That scene was insanely heartwarming.

-->'''Ryan''': I don't need them any more. I've got you.

** Clark and Jonathan reconciling after they had a heated argument earlier in the episode.
* "Obscura": Clark digs Chloe out after she is buried alive.

** Also in that episode, Lex gives a check to Jonathan and Martha, with an amount equal to the 'exact amount of the cows and land lost' earlier in the season. It's nice to see that...[[HarsherInHindsight still with how he and Jonathan went out...]]

* In "Duplicity," Jonathan tells Pete [[SoProudOfYou he's proud of him]].

** Creator/ChristopherReeve guest stars as Dr. Swann. It's just heartwarming enough just to see him interact with Welling, and they even play the classic ''Film/{{Superman}}'' opening march.

* Clark finally returning to home in "Phoenix."
* Almost every scene involving Lex and Clark throughout "Asylum" can be considered both this, but also a TearJerker as well. The biggest heartwarming scene, however, comes during their final scene together at the end of the episode.

* In "Delete," someone who is going to be exposed by Chloe's reports [[NightmareFuel mind-controls Clark into trying to run Chloe down with his truck]]. [[TearJerker She thinks Clark did it on purpose because she worked for Lionel before, starts to cry and say she can only apologize so many times]]. The heartwarming bit comes when they acknowledge they both have their weak moments (how Clark treated her in "Exile" while under the effects of Red Kryptonite) and make up, with Chloe promising not to pry into his life and take him for who he is.

* Most of "Memoria" is [[DarkerAndEdgier quite dark]], but the end was very heartwarming, with a touch of TearJerker.
--->'''Clark''': When I was in the tank, I saw my earliest memory. [Lara] was putting me in the ship. Her only fear was that no one would love me.
--->'''Martha''': I can't imagine the agony of putting my son in a lifeboat and sending him across the stars.
--->'''Clark''': [[{{Superdickery}} Because of Jor-El, I always thought that my biological parents were monsters.]] But she wasn't. I just can't believe I forgot about her.
--->'''Martha''': You didn't, Clark. Your first word was "Lara." Your father and I could never figure out what it meant. Now we know.
--->'''Clark''': I wish she could have met you, to see what a great mom I have.
--->'''Martha''': She knows, Clark. A mother's love never dies.

* "Blank": Clark with complete amnesia causes a lot of funny moments. It is Chloe who shepherds him around, covers up for his accidents (he forgot about his powers, too) and actively tries to keep him from revealing his secret to anyone (after spending some time trying to uncover that herself) that is heartwarming.

-->'''Chloe''': (''shivering'') I know you can run faster than a speeding bullet, Clark... Take me along for the ride.

-->'''Chloe''': [[InnocentAliens I think you are so amazing.]] [[TheCape You save people's lives and take]] [[ThinkNothingOfIt zero credit for it]]. [[HumansAreFlawed If more humans are like you]], [[TheParagon the world would be a better place]].

-->'''Chloe''': Smallville needs you more than I do, Clark, go. (''Clark hesitates'') GO!

** When [[spoiler:Brainiac]] turns against Clark and incapacitates him with a piece of Green Kryptonite, despite being almost frozen to death the last time she was at the Fortress, Chloe immediately rushes to Clark's aid when she figures out that [[spoiler:Fine is a bad guy]]. Pretty [[{{Awesome/Smallville}} awesome]] when you realize she basically saved him from Kryptonite, [[spoiler:Brainiac and ''Zod'']]. She didn't escape completely unscathed, and stayed at the Kents, wrapped up and thawing out in front of a fire:
-->'''Chloe''': You know, next time I head up north, I got to remember to pack a parka.
-->'''Clark''': How did you get up there anyway?
-->'''Chloe''': You left your key in the cave. (''hands the key to Clark'') Seriously, Clark, you've got to be more careful. I mean, if I can get up there, anyone can.
-->'''Clark''': You know, [[HumanAlien Professor Fine]] said that human beings were insignificant and couldn't be depended on. He obviously don't know you very well.

** Lex [[BatmanColdOpen is shot]], which sends him into a coma. He wakes up in bed with a very pregnant Lana, and his mother's ghost informs him that this life is what he could have in reality if he makes the right choices. Think ''Literature/AChristmasCarol'', with the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come showing a ''good'' future instead. Lex also has a young son, and Lana informs him that he broke off from Lionel seven years ago, leaving them not the richest people but certainly very happy ones. She also says he tends to overspend just to give her and his son, Alexander, the best of the world and that is why she loves him so much. Lex and Alexander go and admire some Christmas trees when they meet Chloe and Clark. Alexander rushes over...
-->'''Alexander''': Uncle Clark, Uncle Clark! Make me fly!
-->'''Clark''': Hey! I missed you, little guy. (''picks him up and swings him about'')

** Back in reality, Chloe calls Clark because she needs to distribute Christmas presents donated to the ''Daily Planet'' and the drivers are on strike. Knowing he is faster than a speeding bullet, she jams a Santa hat on him in a cute little scene and tugs at his heartstrings until he takes off at SuperSpeed, running from house to house, delivering the gifts before he met a very drunk SantaClaus. He talked him out of jumping off the building, and he wanders off.

* "Vengeance": Clark has disappeared and Martha, worried that he's in denial of [[spoiler:Jonathan's death]], goes to Chloe to see if she knows anything. While she doesn't, Martha says she is glad that Chloe is there to keep the secret together. Chloe assures her that Clark is going to be fine and they hug.
* "Tomb": Chloe, after Clark's encouragement, finally gathers the courage to go visit her mother, who didn't say a word and her face is [[TheUnreveal not shown]], but she strokes her daughter's face gently and they embrace.

-->'''Clark''': I don't know what I'd do without you, Chloe.
-->'''Chloe''': Oh, is this when I'm supposed to cue the Music/BarryManilow music?
-->'''Clark''': No, seriously. You mean a lot more to me than you know.

-->'''Clark''': Hold on to me. You can't move.
-->'''Chloe''': Okay.
-->'''Clark''': (''as she shudders and screams in pain'') I'm sorry!
-->'''Chloe''': (''teeth clenched'') Just get it out!
** By the end of the episode, Chloe is in tears over her newly found knowledge of being meteor infected, reasoning that every "meteor freak" she's ever met has either died or ended up in the insane asylum, summing up her situation as a "walking time bomb." Clark's response? Pull a chair next to her, hold her tightly and say "Then consider me your personal bomb squad". Chloe smiles gratefully in response, with Clark shooting her a reassuring smile.

* "Phantom": Mix of TearJerker and Heartwarming but Chloe finding Lois's dead body inside the dam and then bringing her back to life with her newly discovered ability to heal. The favor is returned in full as Lois does all she can to keep herself and Chloe alive in a collapsing dam.

** Clark and Kara share a moment and say they are happy they have each other in their lives. [[KissingCousins Shame they are cousins]].

** Clark noticing the wound on Chloe's cheek, berating her for taking dangerous jobs and yelling at Oliver for risking her life is heartwarming in his own way.
** Gets a little funny when you notice that serious "[[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend do whatever you want but don't you dare touch my girl]]" vibe when Clark confronts Oliver.

-->'''Chloe''': If it means saving Clark, I'd climb Mount Everest.
** When Clark is captured, Chloe decides the only way to save him is to help Kara get back her memories and powers. They travel to the Fortress of Solitude, but Jor-El is [[{{Understatement}} not in the most cooperative mood]]. Chloe proceeds to beg him with a heartfelt speech.
-->'''Chloe''': Out of all the planets across the universe, you decided to send your only son to this one, to Earth! You trusted us to protect him! Now please, Jor-El, I need you to trust me. [[AnguishedDeclarationOfLove I love your son!]] He's in danger and he needs our help!
*** This is also a callback to ''Wrath'', as in this episode, Chloe literally goes to the end of the earth to save the man she loves.

-->'''Kara:''' Oh, Kal-El, how could I ever forget you?

-->'''Chloe''': Clark—

-->'''Chloe''': They did die for you, Clark. But ultimately, they died for all of us. There was a reason those men were in your life—each of them added something to the man that you are today.

** Clark refuses to go to Krypton's past and stop Brainiac from killing his infant self and thus altering history because he thinks all he did is bring pain to Earth. While he {{Angst}}s, Chloe chases after him and try to convince that he has done much good and is not responsible for the bad.

** After Chloe has been rendered catatonic by [[spoiler:Brainiac's attack]], Clark visits her at the hospital, holds her hand and says he is sorry for letting her confront [[PhysicalGod Kara]] [[spoiler:(Brainiac in disguise)]] alone.

-->'''Chloe''': (''teeth clenched'') Get it out!

* "Noir": After Clark rescues Chloe again, Jimmy rushes in and starts babbling that he doesn't understand what happened, but Chloe plants a ShutUpKiss on him. When they hug, Chloe looks at Clark in the shadows and silently says something suspiciously like "[[ShipTease I love you too]]."

* In "Duplicity," Jonathan tells Pete he's proud of him.

* In "Ryan," when the titular character hands Clark his comics and says:
-->'''Ryan''': I don't need them any more. I've got you.
