Kira again. Apologies for the blackout; it's been a crazy week. To make up for it, here's the first in a series of Smallville fivers by Derek Dean: Five-Minute "Unsafe," which Derek assures me is one of the worst episodes of Smallville, ever. Let's enjoy!

As fair warning to everyone, this and the others aren't like the fivers I normally write.

Yeah, Derek's Smallville fivers compare with his usual stuff the way my Voyager fivers from, say, 2001 compare with the stuff I do now. They're shorter, punchier, and less careful to cover every aspect of the plot. There's something to be said for that style -- it's what made this site popular, after all -- and when I half-called Buffy S3 from Kelonzi, the idea was that when I had time I would do the episodes with this sort of back-to-basics approach. (It's harder than it sounds. My one attempt so far, Five-Minute "The Wish," isn't short or punchy at all.)
Great fiver, Derek. I think I told you that like 90 years ago when you first sent it....
