SMALLVILLE: "FALLOUT"
The CW has released five images, including a behind-the-scenes shot of filming, from "Fallout," the Thursday, Nov. 2 episode of Smallville.
Here's how the network describes the episode:
"Clark (Tom Welling) is thrilled when he learns Raya (guest star Pascale Hutton) managed to escape from the Phantom Zone and has come to see him in Smallville. The two grow close and Raya shows Clark how to restore power to the Fortress of Solitude.
"However, Baern (guest star Bow Wow), a killer who also escaped from the Phantom Zone, takes on both Raya and Clark as he seeks revenge for his imprisonment."
