Clark and the gang are overcome by a spell after drinking a bottle of champagne sent by Zatanna in celebration of Clark and Lois' engagement. Things go more than awry at their hen and stag dos.
Clark (Tom Welling) stares at Lois (Erica Durance) as if he's never seen her in a dress before. Chloe's (Allison Mack) never seen him this happy before. Oliver (Justin Hartley), Tess (Cassidy Freeman) and Emil (Alessandro Juliani) all toast the happy couple. Chloe: "to friends."
Next day, Clark wakes to see an 'S' emblazoned onto the ceiling of his room and a ring on his finger. Then discovers Chloe in a wedding dress in the closet. She too wears a ring. "What did we do?" Chloe tells him not to say 'consummate'. The farm is trashed. Alcohol isn't meant to affect Clark and Clark sees the champagne was a gift from Zatanna. They were put under a spell when they drank. The mind wipe affected them all.
Clark finds his wallet on the limo and 'Just married' is written all over the limo. Chloe looked very Sarah Jessica Parker in her wedding attire. Reminded me of the pink dress SJP used to wear in the opening creds of Sex and the City.
Clark has a text from Lois saying she needs more time. He recalls the first time he kissed Lois she left town and when she discovered he was the Blur, she went to Egypt. Chloe finds Dr Emil's pants in the backseat as well as a wedding certificate, torn in half. "Holy matrimony." This has her name and signature on it. So if she did marry Clark, which is highly unlikely, where is Clark's half of it. Clark walks away and straight into the wall, his abilities are affected.
Clark finds Dr Emil dressed as Elvis, as he and Tess sing. The limo driver (Paula Elle) tells him of the Chapel of Love. Dr Emil is arrested for making an armoured truck disappear. Tess comments there's only one person she knows who can do that and calls him 'Clarkie.' Hey Tess, get your own nickname for him, I've been calling him Clarkie for ten years!
A bag woman steals Lois' shoes whilst she's unconscious. Lois and Oliver are together in a seedy part of town. Strange Clarkie ended up with Chloe and Lois with Oliver. Oliver says he survived the world's greatest bachelor party. Lois thought she'd wake up with someone, "taller, darker and a whole different handsome." Oliver wears a green jacket. Well he had to, it's his Green Arrow colour. Wonder why then Chloe wears a green leather jacket of her own in some episodes. Lois notices she's lost her engagement ring, well lucky otherwise said bag woman would have nicked that too.
Tess convinced Dr Emil to drink champagne as he doesn't normally drink. Clark's beeping and he tracks the armoured truck back to the farm. Oliver says he'll buy Lois an identical ring even if he no longer has his corporation. Lois doesn't want a ring from her ex. Lois finds a casino chip in her bra, she didn't feel that there all this time. Lois: "I'm not twitching, there's something stuck in my bra."
Oliver: "That's not my territory anymore." Oliver tells her the "Pointer sisters" gave them a clue to where they were last night.
Tess tells Clark his behaviour was human after he says on his first drunken night out, he loses Lois, commits a crime and lands his friend in jail. Yes but under the influence of the various Kryptonite colours, he's done much the same things. Dr Emil isn't at the police station but instead is being beaten for info on the whereabouts of the money and the armoured truck. His captor, Fortune (James Kidnie) shows him footage of Dr Emil knocking out two men. He also claims he took his lucky lemur. As soon as he mentioned luck, should have realized he'd be at the casino too.
Lois bet her ring and she would only do that if she was certain it was a 'sure thing'. Meaning the casino cheated. The boss being the man with Dr Emil, i.e Fortune. Lois says she wanted her wedding to be perfect and that Clark would never lose his ring. Lois and Oliver are caught and tied up. Oliver breaks through the tape binding them and their only escape is to dress as showgirls on stage.
Chloe thinks the cops who took Dr Emil were fake as she and Clark also arrive at the casino. She recognizes Lois as the showgirl and Oliver too. Fortune goes for Oliver, finding him attractive and Chloe is recognized as someone who stole his money. The highlight here was Oliver as a showgirl and then gets his top ripped off.
Dr Emil realizes Fortune is running a scam by stealing the armoured truck money and then reporting it stolen for the insurance. Clark rescues Dr Emil. Chloe and Clark turn out not to be married. This reminded Clark of the good old days. Chloe's saying goodbye as she's leaving. She won't let Oliver give up his world for her. But he already has! Chloe can no longer be Watchtower, but she's more than that to Clark. Chloe realizes she inspired Clark to greatness - but that was always his destiny - and her true calling is finding heroes and helping them reach their potential. Clark's not alone, he's got Oliver and Lois. Chloe has created a double identity like Clark. She's the Star City's new reporter by day, just like Clark at the Daily Planet. Chloe will always be there for him.
Tess says it was a nice surprise hearing Dr Emil sing, his having a special power of his own. He hasn't sung since his wife died. Tess doesn't think he should give it up. Dr Emil's camera is found and Lois comes clean about the ring. Clark telling her this week that she's the one who's important, not the ring. Clark was under the impression he'd scared her away again.
They watch footage from the previous night's escapades. Clark's ring was from a vending machine. Dr Emil and Tess "got it on" together.
Chloe lets Oliver know she's leaving, well he figured it out for himself and shows her the other half of the marriage certificate with his name and signature. They'll stay with each other, even if she's leaving. So were they going to tell anyone else about this. Clark didn't even seem interested in knowing what the wedding certificate was all about, more worried about himself and Lois. So if they were married how come he ended up with Lois and Clark ended up with Chloe. I know I asked that already.
Plenty of laughs in this episode - had a feeling they were just buying time until the hurried conclusion of the series within the next 7 episodes. When they'll finish off Darkseid and all will be right with the world.
The highlight was still Oliver as a showgirl, was it something he always wanted to do. ha. Lois still on about wanting to marry Clark and how she was waiting for someone like him for such a long time. Tess seeing Dr Emil in a new light - along with everyone else, as we find out he was married. Although it's a little late to give his character some backstory. I noticed Oliver has his top ripped off and in the next shot when he turns around, the straps can be seen on his back. Chloe mentions Batman and Wonder Woman. Oliver mentions the Blair Witch this time round.
Next time Tess and Lionel go head to head in a battle for LutherCorp.
