I have a feeling Astrofan is probably right. But I'm hopeing they at least keep Lana dead or out of the picture for at least half a season. Chloe will wake up and be totally fine. Maybe she'll get some practice useing her powers. Green arrow scientists can analyse her tears to see what else she can do with them. Clark battles Bizarro with a little help from Lionel. Meanwhile Oliver Queen's people interrogate Lex as to how and why he killed Lana, and slowly graduate to questions about 33.1 and Ares. Lex's people find out it's not really the police that have Lex captive. They bust in and try to sneak him out at the last minute. A battle ensues. While all the caos is going on Bizarro has knocked out Clark and is now posing as him (of course LOL) Bizarro shows up at the place Lex is being held and whisks Lex away. Together they begin a secret underground plan to rule the world. Lex's projects continue, only even more underground than before. One of the projects may very well be Lana. Lex may have had a tracking device implanted inside her at around the same time he injected her with hormones. He may have used this tracking device to find her and experiment on her as revenge. Or interrogate her as to what she told Lionel. Although I don't think I wan't Lana kidnapped and experimented on again. She's been a victim for too long. She needs to fight or die. But not be a victim and not be rescued by Clark at the last minute.

Yay, another one hour complete story clean up job. In this episode Bizarro will die, Chloe and Lana live, and Lex is cleared of all charges leaving everything back to normal in Smallville again.
Yep, I'd say you're about spot on in you assessment, a shame really because smallville has some great moments and storylines. Lana is definitely alive and well, carted off in that white van that oh so inconspicuously drove by her truck before it exploded, ah well.
