Plot
After a movie night at the Talon, Lana starts to see an old childhood friend named Emily who died 6 years ago. She is convinced that she is seeing ghosts because Emily can appear and disappear at will. Clark sees differently -- she is simply moving really fast, in the same way he can. It turns out that Emily's father has been cloning humans with the help of liquid Kryptonite, using his deceased daughter as a template. But there's a flaw with the Emily clone -- she has no sense of morality and no conscience, which eventually puts Lana in grave danger. Meanwhile, Lex prepares for his wedding with Helen.
