"Hidden" is one of the best episodes of the series and probably the best one of season 5. Everything is simply great. The story is awesome, the writing is great, and the performances are great, too.
A young man named Gabriel realizes that after the second meteor shower, things will never be the same for Smallville, so he smuggles himself into a control room used to shoot nuclear silos that the government had hidden around Smallville, and plans to use it to destroy everyone's favorite cow town. Can Clark save Smallville? Well, he hasn't got any powers...
There are two scenes that define the episode and make it worthy of Smallville's hall of fame. Firstly, the scene where powerless Clark dies at the hospital and secondly, the scene in which he makes a giant leap to grab a nuclear warhead that's heading towards Smallville.
This second scene is so awesomely written, directed, edited, and visualized that you can't help but cheer and clap.
Kelly Souders and Brian Peterson are my favorite Smallville scribes, I always like their episodes. But with this one, they really outdid themselves.
This is coming from one of Smallville's biggest fans. This episodes answers the question that people often ask themselves: "Why do we watch Smallville?" Watch Hidden, and you'll get your answer.
