In this week’s episode of Going Back to Smallville, we’re diving into the wild ride that is Instinct! Trust us, this one gets spicy. We’re talking alien queens, soulmates, and the kiss that nearly sent Clark over the edge (literally). From Chloe’s heartbreaking letter reveal to Lois walking in on Maxima mid-smooch, there’s a lot to unpack… including what this moment meant for Clois, Chlimmy, and Clark’s entire arc. Join us as we revisit all the chaos, character beats, and comic book callbacks that make this one unforgettable. Buckle up, Smallville fans, things are about to get emotionally intense.
