Hey guys.. i'm new so not sure if this has been discussed before
OK this is really starting to annoy me - throughout the whole show Clark's only real interaction with Lex is when he needs something. I can't remember seeing an episode where they go to the beach together or watch a basketball game. As if that wasn't bad enough Clark still uses Lex despite the gap that's developed, he still storms in (possibly thirst?) and says something along the lines of "that's what friends do in case you've forgotten". They clearly aren't, why do they both pretend?
