Cheerleaders are poisoning their football boyfriends; Lex wants to patch things up with Clark; Lois continues to try to get into college.

What's up with the football team: Danny, Smallville High's starting QB blows off his cheerleader girlfriend at practice, saying he's hanging out with the guys later. When she gives him a sports drink, he immediately begins treating her like a goddess and decides to leave practice and go shopping with her. Later, Danny comes back with a shotgun and tries to kill Jason because he thought he was hitting on his girlfriend. Soon all the football players are waiting on their cheerleader girlfriends hand and foot.

What's up with Clark: With Danny's absence, Clark becomes the starting quarterback. Clark tells Chloe he won't be able to spend much time on The Torch because of football. At first she's disappointed, but when she drinks from the poisoned sports drink she falls madly in love with him. She quits The Torch and later confronts Clark in the barn wearing only his jersey. She loves him and is completely devoted to him.

What's up with Lex: He buys the team new jerseys. Clark tells him he can't buy back his friendship. He then gives Clark all the files he ever had on him and says Clark's friendship helps keep his dark side at bay.

What's up with Jason: Jason tells Lana he needs his job as assistant coach and he's sorry they can't take their relationship public. When he drinks the sports drink he becomes insanely jealous of Clark. When Clark drinks the drink and becomes weak, it's got meteor rock in it, Jason tells the team to hit him hard, a weakened Clark is pummeled. After practice, Clark tries to tell Jason the sports drink is poisoned but Jason attacks him. Clark's saved by Lex.

What's up with Lois: After she notices her cousin going Clark-crazy, she decides to investigate. She finds out two cheerleaders did a chemistry experiment with the "Love molecule." With Clark's help they figure out that when it was combined with meteor rock, it makes people fall hopelessly in love. They decide to steal the antidote from Mandy, the cheerleader who created the concoction.

How it ends: Clark distracts Mandy while Lois steals the info from her purse. As she's trying to decipher it, Chloe attacks her, saying she won't let Lois steal Clark from her. Lois kicks her into the furnace and the heat snaps her out of her trance. They relay the info to Clark and they use the info to snap the team out of their trance.

The guys on the team had been giving Clark a hard time. But, when game time comes around, Clark leads the team to victory with a 60-yard touchdown pass as time expires. The crowd goes wild and Clark is a hero. The whole stadium is rocking, except Jonathan who looks on with a scowl.

Lex apologizes to Clark again and says he wants to give their friendship another chance. Clark decides to test Lex and asks him to help Lois get into college. With his influence, he gets her in, Lois knows Clark had a hand in her getting into school, she's off to the city, but she'll be back to visit.
