The WB has released a description of "Run," the Wednesday, Oct. 20 episode of Smallville.
Here's how the network describes the episode:
"After Jonathan's (John Schneider) wallet is stolen, Clark (Tom Welling) super-speeds after the thief (guest star Kyle Gallner) but is stunned when he cannot catch him. The thief, Bart, a.k.a. The Flash, later shows up at the farm and tries to talk Clark into leaving Smallville for a life on the road together, flexing their super powers. Meanwhile, Lex (Michael Rosenbaum) buys a priceless framed manuscript with Kryptonian symbols and Clark learns that it contains a mysterious hidden map. However, when Bart steals the manuscript from Lex, he inadvertently puts Clark's life in danger and must make the decision whether to save Clark or himself."
"Run" was written by Steven S. DeKnight and directed by David Barrett.
In a recent interview with The Continuum, executive producer Al Gough described Smallville's take of The Flash.
"He's sort of this fun-loving kid who is sort of using his power to have fun, a little bit of a street urchin and a little bit of a con artist, a small-time thief," Gough said. "And he crosses paths with Clark, and what Flash shows Clark is that just because you have all these powers doesn't mean you have to have the weight of the world on your shoulders and always hide them. You are allowed to go out and have some fun.
"And toward the end of the episode, you see that Clark puts Bart on the road to responsibility so that somewhere down the line he will become The Flash."
Gough also promised a race between the two speedsters.
