Stray
Guest Stars: Jada Stark, Brandy Ledford, John Glover [Lionel Luthor], Ryan Kelley [Ryan]
Clark befriends a kindred spirit when his family aids a secretive teen (Ryan Kelley) who can read minds. This strong installment has a refreshing twist: for once, the other boy with the superpowers isn't a villain. He's a benevolent lad who enters the Kents' life in dramatic fashion when he's accidentally struck by their pickup truck while fleeing from a murderous thief. Clark's parents take in the telepathic teen, but the boy's safety is soon jeopardized by the killer's return. Meanwhile, Lex has a chance to leave Smallville when his father offers him a job in Metropolis, but their stormy history makes Lex wary of his father's generous impulse.
