The CW has released a gallery of images from "Idol," the Friday, Nov. 13 episode of Smallville.

The episode features the Wonder Twins -- David Gallagher as Zan and Allison Scagliotti as Jayna.

Here's how the network describes the episode:

"Superhero twins Zan and Jayna show up in Metropolis to help The Blur fight crime but end up botching several rescues, landing Clark in hot water with the District Attorneyıs office.  Clark decides to come forward as the Blur to clear his name."

The episode was written by Ann Coffel Saunders and was directed by Glen Winter.
