Smallville

Hourglass - S1-E6

Character mistake: Chloe hands Clark a newspaper with the list of jury members from Harry Volk's trial. As he reads the list he says "Rudolph Gage, Rita Garfield". After Clark realizes that his grandfather, Hiram Kent, is on the jury he hands the paper to Lana. A shot of the newspaper has the jury members listed as Randolph Gage, and Eve Garfield. Even young Harry calls her Eve when confronting Zoe at The Beanery.

Suspect - S2-E13

Character mistake: When Sheriff Miller is talking to Clark and Martha about Jonathan being drunk, he says Jonathan blew a 2.0, referring to his BAC. He meant to say a 0.2. A 0.2 would be a blackout drunk stage, but a 2.0 would be a lethal amount.

Gone - S4-E2

Character mistake: When Chloe is rescued, and she sees Lois, she asks what's Lois is doing here. Lois says "putting the worst 2 months of my life behind me", indicating how long since Chloe supposedly died. But it had been three months at that point.

Tomb - S5-E14

Character mistake: While Clark and Chloe are at Daily Planet, Clark asks her what is wrong with her mother. Chloe responds that her mother left when she was twelve years old. In the episode Lineage, Chloe and Clark are looking for Rachael Dunleavy and Chloe says her mother left when she was five.

Fade - S5-E20

Character mistake: Chloe is looking at her digital wall of weird for anyone with camouflage abilities in the past and says there's no match. They act like this is a new power. However, in season 1, "Shimmer", Jeff Palmer had the ability to turn invisible because of a cream he made with kryptonite infused green roses. That should have popped up in her search. And even if it didn't, Chloe should remember the ability to turn invisible because she got the cream on her fingers, which turned invisible.

Infamous - S8-E15

Character mistake: When Davis sees Lois' article about Clark, the second column contains a grammatical error; in her description of his upbringing with Jonathan and Martha, the possessive "Kent's" should be the plural "Kents."

Hero - S7-E13

Trivia: When Clark confronts the Flash in his hotel room, he reads off the fake IDs Jay Garrick, Barry Allen and Wally West. Those are the secret identities of the first three men to be called the Flash in the comics. Also, this Flash says his name is Bart, like Bart Allen, the teen hero formerly known as Impulse and currently being called "Kid Flash." (00:10:35)

Question: Throughout the series, people mutate fairly soon after their exposure to kryptonite. Is it ever explained how Lana has managed to wear a piece of kryptonite around her neck for 12 years and not change?

Answer: The kryptonite only creates mutations when it reacts with the environment and an individual. Remember, the FDA and several environmental groups did check out Smallville after the meteor shower, but found no danger in the rocks. Obviously they're not always emitting mutating rays, or all the flora and fauna of the surrounding area would be horribly mutated.
