Clark (Tom Welling) and Lana (Kristin Kreuk) each make an attempt on Chloe’s (Allison Mack) life for unknown reasons after they receive a mysterious e-mail from the Sommerholt Institute. Clark must discover the source of these e-mails after Chloe reveals she has uncovered proof that they are doing mind-control research at the lab and realizes they must be trying to kill her in order to prevent her from writing an expose. Meanwhile, Lana decides to rent the apartment above the café to Adam (guest star Ian Somerhalder) even though she feels he is hiding something dangerous about his past.

“Try” by Nelly Furtado — Heard playing at the Talon when Lana and Adam are talking the first time. She makes him a special cup of coffee, and he confesses that the Talon has been a refuge for him.
