Superman & Lois Season 1 Preview: Clark Goes Through the Past, Darkly

Well, there's nothing like learning you've got family you knew nothing about to send a person on an impromptu trip down memory lane. That's exactly where Clark (Tyler Hoechlin) finds himself heading into this week's episode of The CW's Superman & Lois, with the appropriately titled "A Brief Reminiscence In-Between Cataclysmic Events" sending Superman back into his past- but with a darker twist to it this time. But as you're about to see from the following episode images, overview, and sneak previews, not everything this hour is about the past- because after everything the town's been through over the past ten episodes, Inde Navarrette's Sarah Cushing wants to make it clear that she wants her relationship with Alexander Garfin's Jordan Kent to be "More Than Friends."

Superman & Lois Season 1, Episode 11 "A Brief Reminiscence In-Between Cataclysmic Events": GREGORY SMITH ("EVERWOOD") DIRECTS THE EPISODE – Clark (Tyler Hoechlin) makes a startling discovery about Morgan Edge (Adam Rayner). Elizabeth Tulloch, Jordan Elsass, Alex Garfin, Inde Navarette, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Erik Valdez, Dylan Walsh and Wole Parks also star. The episode was directed by Gregory Smith and written by Adam Brent Fletcher.

In SUPERMAN & LOIS, after years of facing megalomaniacal supervillains, monsters wreaking havoc on Metropolis, and alien invaders intent on wiping out the human race, the world's most famous superhero, The Man of Steel aka Clark Kent (Tyler Hoechlin, "Teen Wolf") and comic books' most famous journalist, Lois Lane (Elizabeth Tulloch, "Grimm"), come face to face with one of their greatest challenges ever – dealing with all the stress, pressures and complexities that come with being working parents in today's society. Complicating the already daunting job of raising two boys, Clark and Lois must also concern themselves with whether or not their sons Jonathan (Jordan Elsass, "Little Fires Everywhere") and Jordan (Alexander Garfin, "The Peanuts Movie") could inherit their father's Kryptonian superpowers as they grow older.

Returning to Smallville to handle some Kent family business, Clark and Lois are reacquainted with Lana Lang (Emmanuelle Chriqui, "Entourage"), a local loan officer who also happens to be Clark's first love, and her Fire Chief husband Kyle Cushing (Erik Valdez, "Graceland"). The adults aren't the only ones rediscovering old friendships in Smallville as the Kent sons are reacquainted with Lana and Kyle's rebellious daughter, Sarah (Inde Navarrette, "Wander Darkly"). Of course, there's never a dull moment in the life of a superhero, especially with Lois' father, General Samuel Lane (Dylan Walsh, "Nip/Tuck") looking for Superman to vanquish a villain or save the day at a moment's notice. Meanwhile, Superman and Lois' return to idyllic Smallville is set to be upended when a mysterious stranger (Wolé Parks, "All American") enters their lives.
