Upon learning that his father, Lionel (John Glover), has placed him under surveillance, a spiteful Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum) schemes to plant a bug in his father's office. Unfortunately, the crooks whom Lex has hired to do the job decide to double-cross him and rob LutherCorp -- taking Lionel and his personal assistant Martha Kent (Annette O'Toole) hostage. Meanwhile, Lana Lang (Kristin Kreuk) braces herself for a meeting with the wife of Lana's biological father, Henry Small (Patrick Cassidy). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
