Superman & Lois season 3 episode 10 recap: How did Kyle discover that Clark was Superman?
We are now moving into uncertain territory in Superman & Lois as the Man of Steel's identity is slowly getting more and more exposed with every passing day. At this point, each and every member of the show's original cast is well aware of Clark Kent's superhuman abilities and unfortunately, someone who shouldn't have known it is aware of it too.
Kyle had been highly suspicious of a superhuman living in his quiet city of Smallville, but somehow, he could never figure out this individual's true identity. When Kyle saw that Sarah and George Jr. were involved in a gruesome car accident but still emerged unharmed, his suspicion only grew stronger. He assumed that the superhero was Jonathan, but wasn't 100% sure yet.
To confirm his suspicion, he went over to the Kents’ farm to have a word with Clark. This turned out to be a massive disaster, as right when Kyle stepped into the farm, he saw Clarke use his superpowers and take off to rescue Lois from Peia. Thankfully, Lois had made a complete recovery because Mateo sneakily gave her a dose of the cure. Unfortunately, now Kyle knows that Clarke is Superman.
With Kyle knowing Clake Kent's secret, the future of the superhero now seems to be in peril. Kyle is not yet aware that his ex-wife, daughter, and girlfriend also know about Clarke and this might be a huge factor in the story. Superman's archnemesis Lex Luthor will arrive very soon and the last thing a superhero needs during this time is a madcap with sensitive information.
However, not everything was gloomy and grim in this episode. Louis is cancer free now. After Sarah got arrested, Chrissy made sure Lana was well taken care of, and finally, after an entire month, Jonathan and Candice have finally reunited.
