Trivia
The episode opens with Jonathan Kent driving, with "Good Ol' Boys" playing on the radio - it is the theme song from The Dukes of Hazzard (1979). John Schneider, who plays Jonathan Kent, also played Bo Duke.

Goofs
About 10 mins in when Martha and Jonathan are in the kitchen you can see a cupboard in the background open its doors mysteriously.

Quotes
Chloe Sullivan: So she just stripped down right in front of you? Lana Lang in all her glory...
Clark Kent: Most of her glory. She said everything I ever wanted to hear but it didn't seem like she knew what she was doing.
Chloe Sullivan: At least you'll have something nice to daydream about in Saturday detention.

It's OK, but rather ridiculous

"Smallville" has one of its weaker episodes of Season 1 in "Nicodemus." Still enjoyable on a lower level, but this episode does nothing to progress Clark's journey of self-discovery.

A flower induced with the mysterious green toxin is stolen from Lex. As the thief runs, he gets in a wreck. However, Jonathan saves him. The flower, like an allergy, affects those who come in contact with it to magnify their desires. The flower also affects Lana. Unfortunately for Clark her desires, like if someone was being hypnotized, are simply enhanced by the flower.

Let's move on to next week.
