When did you get to be so wise?
— SMALLVILLE, “Obscura” (1.20)

#ughhh everything about the way jonathan treated lex was such a bad attempt at foreshadowing
#the writers clearly want us to be like 'ohohoh IF ONLY THEY KNEW that jonathan is ACTUALLY RIGHT and lex is gonna be EVIL someday!!'
#but that completely ignores that there's no in-universe logic to jonathan's behavior because he's reacting to a lex that doesn't exist yet
#so to the characters in the show (who don't actually know the future) he's just acting like a judgmental asshole towards lex for no reason
#which frankly is a horrible look for a character who's supposed to be Good™
#this convo is actually the closest the show ever gets to being self-aware about this IMO b/c clark is right and jonathan seems to hear him
#but the problem (like always) is that it produces no actual change or character development
#because jonathan backtracks the instant lex does something he can read bad intentions into. he never cuts him an ounce of slack or grace
#(and then clark apparently forgot his own lesson in the later seasons because he started acting just like jonathan used to 🙃)
#...anyway viewed in a vacuum this is actually a really good scene but with the rest of the series in mind it makes me wanna scream
