Is it a bird? Is it a plane? It's actually the return of Superman and Lois on The CW! The final chapter is upon us, and the Man of Tomorrow certainly has a lot on his plate. The prior season left off with Superman going into space to take down the ferocious Doomsday while his family and friends watched in fear back on Earth. The conclusion to said battle is finally here, and we're all super excited to see what the final season of Superman and Lois has in store for us!

The episode opens up with a recap of the season three finale, and we cut to large fragments of the Man of Steel's cape floating aimlessly in space. Back on Earth, Lois and her sons, Jonathan and Jordan, discover that General Sam Lane has been kidnapped and likely in the clutches of the nefarious Lex Luthor. Lois orders Jordan to use his enhanced hearing to search for her father.

Meanwhile, Lex and his associate, Amanda, are discussing the former business mogul’s potential return to LuthorCorp, as it's been a whole month since he got out of prison. Despite some reservations, Lex is mainly concerned about finding his estranged daughter, Elizabeth, who he hasn't heard from in many years. The archenemy of the Last Son of Krypton has ultimately taken up residence in a dilapidated apartment across the street from the Smallville Gazette.

Despite Jordan's best efforts, tracking down his maternal grandfather with his abilities proves to be harder than expected. Jonathan tries to reassure his brother about their father and his chances of survival, but the aspiring hero has his doubts regarding his father's fight against such a ravenous beast. As she worries for her husband, Lois has a flashback to when Clark revealed his secret identity to her many years ago. Despite some initial reservations, the love between Lois Lane and Clark Kent is palpable as the revelation only strengthens their bond.

Returning to the present, Superman is giving his all in a fierce battle with Doomsday, the two exchanging blows with survival as their only focus. Doomsday is a formidable adversary, but Superman is determined to come out on top, even with his foe having regenerative abilities beyond comparison. The next day, Lex visits Lois at the Smallville Gazette, and the seasoned reporter demands to know where her father is. Lex plays coy, which leads to a heated discussion between two lifelong enemies. To say that their exchange ends tumultuously would be an understatement.

We cut to another flashback where Clark returns to the Daily Planet after another clash with Lex and Intergang, which leads to a distressed Lois. Despite her worries, the Man of Tomorrow reassures his newlywed partner that everything will be fine and that he’ll always be by her side. Elsewhere, General Sam Lane is being held captive by his former romantic partner, “Gretchen”, and laments that she's working for such a vile person and how their relationship was a facsimile of something genuine. Even with his attempts to reason with her, General Lane is able to escape and successfully incapacitates “Gretchen”.

In the serene town of Smallville, Jonathan tries to lift Jordan's spirits, but his brother remains worried about their grandfather’s condition. As they share a meal, Lex unexpectedly arrives and speaks with the twins. He explains that everything that’s about to happen is justified, as Lois had previously imprisoned him for a crime he didn’t commit, causing him to lose contact with his daughter. The scene ends with a flashback to Lois preparing to reveal the story incriminating Lex to the public. Despite his pleas, Lois is determined to see him behind bars.

After being knocked unconscious by Otis, General Lane is once again at the mercy of Lex and his affiliates as he's shoved into a grave and buried alive by Otis. Another flashback highlights the birth of Jonathan and Jordan as Lois has a small seizure while in labor with the twins. Clark stands by, despite his initial insistence on heading to the Fortress of Solitude to help with delivering the twins, and Lois eventually gives birth. Back in the present, Jordan is able to pick up on the voice of “Gretchen”, and he and his mother go to save General Lane.

Jordan is able to save his grandfather's life and they immediately rush him to the hospital. General Lane insists that despite everything that has happened, the Man of Steel will rise again and take down Lex Luthor once and for all. However, Superman is still at arms against Doomsday, but even after unleashing a powerful blast of heat vision, it appears the esteemed hero has finally been defeated once and for all. The Last Son of Krypton has finally met his match and paid the ultimate price.

Jordan senses Doomsday’s return and quickly flies his brother and mother to the location where the monster is headed. Doomsday descends to Earth, dropping the lifeless body of the once-powerful superhero at the feet of his family. Devastated beyond belief, the trio openly mourn the loss of not just a hero, but a father and husband. Meanwhile, Doomsday presents Superman's heart to Lex and Amanda, a grim symbol of his defeat. As the episode closes, Lois looks toward Lex’s hideout while her sons cry uncontrollably over their father’s death.

The season four premiere of Superman and Lois delivers one powerful emotional punch, masterfully blending high-stakes action with heartfelt moments. The return of Superman’s iconic battle with Doomsday is both intense and gripping, showcasing Clark's relentless determination, even in the face of impossible odds. The episode also shines in its quieter moments, as Lois’s unwavering hope for her partner's return adds a heartfelt layer to the epic confrontation. Lex Luthor’s presence as a calculating and deeply wronged villain adds intrigue and complexity, with his interactions with Lois fueling the tension.
The final moments, as Superman's body is delivered to his mourning family, leave viewers stunned and emotionally invested, setting the stage for an unforgettable conclusion to the series. In conclusion, "The End and the Beginning" stands out with its blend of action, raw emotion and deep character development, solidifying its place as a phenomenal premiere for the final season of Superman and Lois.

Well this is a perfect kind of "Super" day. Deadline reports that James Gunn has cast David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan as Superman and Lois for the DCEU and if that wasn't enough, we get a season finale (not series finale) with our Superman and Lois, Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch! That is a perfect Summer day for us! David and Rachel will have huge shoes to fill as Tyler and Elizabeth have been called the best live action versions of Superman and Lois to date and we agree! While still excited about the casting news, we are also so excited to see Lex Luthor make his revenge move against Superman! Here's what stood out to us:

1. 32 Days: We are about a month ahead in time. Luthor hasn't been seen and Superman can't find Luthor. Jordan is still grounded from being a hero. Kyle and Chrissy are still together and we find out that Chrissy is pregnant with Kyle's baby. Kyle is happy about it and this makes Chrissy very pleased! John Irons asks out Lana and she agrees.
2. Italy: Lois and Clark announce they are going to Italy for a family vacation. They will talk about it over dinner at the diner. Kyle tells Lana about the baby. Lana takes the news well. The DOD wants more tech from the Irons family. This means they would have to move to Metropolis and Natalie would go to school with her boyfriend Mateo.

5. 33 Days Ago: We get a flashback where we see what happened with Bizarro. Luthor brought a yellow sun energy gun to stop him. Bizarro has the ability to bring himself back from the dead after what Mannheim did to him. Every time he dies, he comes back stronger. Luthor puts together a plan to kill Bizarro time after time to make him stronger than even Superman. Having mutating every time he dies, Luthor is turning Bizarro into something that looks like Doomsday! At the meteor show festival, Kyle steals the mic to ask Chrissy to marry him. Clark hovers above Earth listening for Sam. He hears Luthor approach the Kent farm. Luthor calls in his creation, a Doomsday monster capable of killing Superman!

In the final wrap up moments, Doomsday is set loose in Smallville. Clark warns off everyone that might try and help him. He knows this thing is too strong.

Before we recap "Injustice" let's talk about the injustice we narrowly missed, and that of course is that Superman and Lois will return for a fourth season at The CW. That return is somewhat diminished though. Only ten episodes were ordered and half the cast has lost their full-time status. That includes The Langs and the Irons families and Chrissy along with Kyle. The opportunity for these characters to return as guest stars certainly remains and we believe most will do so at least to wrap up storylines for their characters. With Lex Luthor set to appear tonight and a series regular for season 4, it kind of feels like we are starting a new season tonight! Here's what stood out to us:

1. Healing Lois: It takes time for Lois to heal from her operation. Lois heeds Pia's message about Lex Luthor who is now being set free. We catch up with Lex at the prison who is notified he is being set free. More teens at the high school are thinking there might be a powered teen. Turns out Lois' old partner has the story and is investigating. We get a flashback of when Luthor was taken to jail, Lois was there waiting and watching. In current day, we see a now bald Lex drop a wedding ring and take a picture of a young girl with him. He mentions Otis being at the drop off point at the right time as he walks free.
2. Fire House Changes: Kyle is treating Jon differently and nicer now that he knows who Jon's father really is. Kyle dismisses the firefighter that wanted him to go get the mistaken sandwich. Sam, Lois and Clark meet to discuss Jordan. They agree Jordan needs to stop saving people immediately. Lana arrives to tell them that Jordan is bragging about the hero. In a flashback we see Lex in prison and how he ran things. At first he got his butt beat but it seems that Luthor has something up his sleeve. Lois and Clark call out Jordan for bragging about being a hero. They take his suit away.
3. Smallville Samaritan: The Daily Planet publishes the story on Jordan. There could be a new hero in Smallville. Clark goes to ask Kyle to treat Jon like he did before Kyle knew who Clark was. Sarah leaves to start her shift at the diner. In another flashback, we see Luthor meet with the warden. Lex has a team at the warden's house and his threat is taken very seriously. Lex is going to run the prison and not through bribes but force.
4. Luthor Released: Lex is returning to Luthor Corp and the press gather to cover his return. In another flashback, we see how Lex used the guards to beat his enemies from the first encounter. Jon speaks to Kyle. Kyle asks that Jon come to him rather than go through his dad. Jordan goes to talk to Sarah and she is right to call him out on his garbage attitude. Just then a tornado appears and Superman and Jordan seem to rush to the situation. Sam gets caught up in the tornado too and hides under an overpass. Superman starts to work the situation. Jordan also arrives and sees his suit in Sam's car. Jordan and Clark are able to freeze the tornado to stop it but Jordan reveals himself and takes photos with bystanders.
5. Jordan Exposed: Jordan is exposed to the world. Everyone knows there is a new hero now. Jordan wanted to be exposed and was tired of hiding it. He says "whatever" to Clark and gets physical. Clark immediately shuts him down and sends him to his room. Jon and Jordan connect in their room. Turns out Lex was never heading to Luthor Corp, he walked straight to the Kent farm to face Lois for her article that put him away.

In the final wrap up moments, Lex joins Lois and Clark on the porch. Lex wants an apology from Lois. Lex had a daughter. She was 14 when he went away and now she won't talk to him. Lex demands that Lois stop writing all together as an apology to him. Otis then arrives to pick up Lex from the farm. Lex leaves noting that Superman will be his next target. In a flashback we see how Lex manipulated the entire prison to his will. Lex is told that Bizarro is alive in the basement and he wants to see him for himself. Down in the basement at Bruno's we see a Bizarro Superman feeding on rats to survive. He attacks Otis and we are left with just a flashlight. Check out the preview for the season three finale below:

Well this is a bit frustrating, we still have no word on if Superman and Lois will get another season. If it moves to Max, we are totally fine with that, we just want more Superman and Lois. One indication might come from the season 3 episode 13 synopsis which is yet to come out. For example, when Stargirl ended, the last synopsis that came out included the "Series Finale" mark. Will we get that for Superman and Lois coming this Thursday? It's hard to imagine this show coming to an end when it ends with a cliffhanger of sorts and Lex Luthor is finally set free! So much potential! Any way, let's focus up on "Complications", here's what stood out to us:

1. Sneak Attacks: Pia's powers have been amplified with the cure and she is using them to keep Superman from finding them. Lois and Clark prepare for Lois' procedure. The Mannheims prepare to leave the country and it looks like Pia might be sick. Kyle learns of Clark's secret and he is excited about it. Kyle doesn't like that Chrissy lied to him about keeping Clark's secret. The Langs, Irons and Kents meet for a final meal for Lois before surgery. Sarah goes to make things right with Jordan but he isn't budging, he can't seem to forgive Sarah.
2. Double Mastectomy: Lois arrives at Hobbs Bay medical to prepare for her mastectomy. Her family is there to support her. Sarah cries in the kitchen noting that her life is ruined with the DUI and the loss of Jordan, she's messed up a lot. Natalie goes armored up to try and see Mateo. John Henry goes to stop her. Jordan has a panic attack when Lois begins her surgery, it turns out that it's actually his x-ray vision coming in. Jon is able to help Jordan calm down. As the Mannheims prepare to leave, Pia's powers go on the fritz and shut power down in the city.
3. Power Outage: The power is going wild in the city. Pia's powers are out of control and Bruno's cure doesn't seem to have worked. Lois figures this out. Lana goes to Kyle and is scared about Sarah. She thinks she might be so depressed she might try and take her own life. The parents rush to action. Clark worries the power might go out but Lois says she's ready for the surgery right now. Pia's powers are too out of control, the cure revved her up too much and she killed someone by accident. She runs for Bruno and Mateo to hide.
4. The DOD: Clark leaves to go help the DOD now that Lois is in surgery. Mateo finds the cube Natalie left for Mateo and the two get a moment to speak. Before they can talk, Bruno and his thugs run into the room. Kyle and Lana take Sarah to the diner to talk about how she is feeling and her sadness. The Irons family arrive and offer to help Pia. Pia is going to bring the city down if she isn't stopped but Superman finally gets a reading on where she is.
5. Pia and Superman: Superman offers to help Pia but she says no one can help her anymore. With Pia going haywire, Lois' surgery is taking a risk. Superman continues to try and help Pia. Superman makes his way to her and finally they work together to stop her pain. Superman flies her high into the sky after Pia whispers something to Superman. Her powers give out and she dies. Superman brings her body to Bruno and Mateo. Superman reveals that she whispered, "She'll love Bruno and Mateo forever and always".

In the final wrap up moments of the episode, Natalie comforts Mateo. Clark and the boys wait for Lois. Sarah applies for a job at the diner. The DOD celebrates the win. Lois makes it out of surgery. Clark tells Lois that he was there for Pia when she finally let go. Kyle goes to apologize to Chrissy about his reaction to learning who Superman is. Bruno offers to take all charges as long as Mateo is looked after. John Henry gives his word that Mateo will be cared for. Clark is amazed by Lois after he saw what Pia was fighting. Down in Mannheim's sewer Bizarro wakes up and looks to be changing! Check out a preview for the next all new episode in two weeks below:
