About this episode

The hosts discuss the Smallville episode 'Abyss' and explore themes of memory loss and emotional connections.

What happened? Did you forget another memory? Well, come on down literal memory lane with us this week to find out as we get into season 8, episode 9, Abyss. When Brainiac starts removing Chloe's memories, it's up to Clark to rebuild the fortress and get her back online no matter the cost. We talk about the concept of Brainiac, inappropriate confessions of love, and actually have a deep discussion about the heartbreak of losing memories as we age. Who says we don't get deep here, too?
