Continuity mistake: As Lana gets ready to throw the first ball there is a kid in a red, black and white shirt in the background and he is walking away from the scene. Just after she throws the ball the very same kid is calmly walking behind her again.
Continuity mistake: Seth fires at Clark and Clark dives behind a ride car to dodge the bullets. As Clark stands up he brushes the impacted bullets off of his shoulder. Seth says "Looks like I'm not the only one with special powers." before he turns to use his powers to pick up a ride car that is behind him. As Seth starts to get the car in the air, in the background you can see Clark is only just standing up and brushing his shoulder off again.
Continuity mistake: In the shot of Lana being stepped on by the horse, her right arm is out by her side and her hair is covered with the wood shavings lining the stall. In the next shot of her, her right arm is up so that her right hand is by her head and her hair isn't covered with the shavings. Her arm is back out by her side in the next shot when Clark arrives.
Continuity mistake: When Lex and Clark go to where Lex saw Morgan and it's a bunch of people sewing, Lex grabs a man's hand and puts it on the table. On the table is a piece of fabric that the hands are on, but in the close up shot, there is no fabric. It's back in the next shot.
Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, the doctor takes the mouthpiece out of Lex's mouth, then the scene cuts to Clark. When it cuts back to Lex, the mouthpiece is back in his mouth.
Continuity mistake: After Clark gets his powers back the cut on his cheek heals and leaves only blood on his cheek. While still at the power generator he goes to wipe this blood off of his face with the back of his hand only in the shot just before you see his hand go to wipe, a second before his hand actually appears on screen, the blood that was on his cheek is now gone as if it was already cleaned.
Continuity mistake: As Clark stands outside the room where Lex has just got his shock treatment the blood on his cheek is back even though his cheek wound was healed and he wiped any residual blood off in the previous scene at the power generator.
Continuity mistake: When Lex first tries to break out of Belle Reve, he stabs a security guard in the leg with a pencil deep enough to draw a large amount of blood on the guy's pants leg. But when Lex is trying to incapacitate the man you can see the pencil flopping around on the guards leg and not sticking inside the guy's leg.
Continuity mistake: When Clark is faced with Nathan Dean at the Auto Wrecking lot, Nathan says "In a minute, neither one of you will care," (regarding Pete Ross' whereabouts). The next shot is of the blue car that Pete is trapped in with the windows blown out. Then the shot goes back to Clark and Nathan, and the cars fall onto Nathan. Clark is then listening for Pete and when we see a shot of the blue car being crushed, this time we see the windows being smashed.
Continuity mistake: Martha asks Clark to come out after he gets glasses. In the shot showing all three of them, Clark comes into view on the left side of the screen and is turned toward his parents. The very next shot shows he is just walking through the door of the optometrist and turned away from his parents as he closes the door.
Continuity mistake: When Lionel and Lex are talking, after they sit down, near the end of the conversation, Lionel asks who Lex's source is. Lex is looking straight ahead. In the next shot, we see Lex turn his head to face his father. In the next shot, Lex is looking straight ahead again.
Continuity mistake: As Lana starts her second swing at Chloe with the axe while the camera is in front of Lana Chloe is just barely getting up and is still close to the floor. The camera switches in mid-swing and suddenly Chloe is completely standing and is able to jump back to dodge the swing.
Continuity mistake: When Molly first starts flipping through the disks for Lex, she has a ring on her left ring finger. After Lex talks about just getting back Molly is shown still flipping through the disks only now the ring is gone.
Continuity mistake: In the head on shot of the car that almost hits Mr. Altman you see the driver of that car react by turning his car to the left. In the very next shot, as Clark and Mr. Altman are just coming to a stop after Clark's high speed rescue, the driver is now turning his car to the right, as shown by which way his wheels are turned.
Continuity mistake: When Adam says "It's nice to be appreciated" Lex is looking at Adam. In the next shot, as Lex says "strange thing is." and now Lex is looking down at the file or piano.
Continuity mistake: After Dante says "...if you want to turn that tortoise into a hare just give me a call." he walks off and the shot follows him as he walks all the way over to a black car and starts to work on it. The shot returns to Clark and Pete and Dante is shown walking away again on the left side of the screen.
Continuity mistake: At the start of the final race there is a bridge at the far end of the road that Pete and Jason are going to race to. During the entire race they never pass this bridge yet it ends up behind Jason's car when Pete looks in his rearview mirror as the crash is going on.
Continuity mistake: As the two racers speed past Clark and Martha, in the truck at the intersection, Pete's red car does not have its neon lights on in the back window and under the rear spoiler. Then in the next shot, while still racing, both the blue neon lights in the back window and the green neon under the rear spoiler are on.
Continuity mistake: As the car that Jason was in comes to a stop after the crash you can see Pete's red car is nowhere near the wreckage of Jason's car. In the next shot Pete's car is shown rolling forward to a stop, meaning he hadn't backed up but was still going forward and stopped where he was, but now Pete is only 30-40 feet from the wreck of Jason's car.
Answer: In the comics, Krypto is a dog from Krypton who was used as the passenger in a test launch by Jor-El, Superman's father, before he launched the actual rocket taking his infant son to Earth. Krypto's capsule was involved in a mishap, sending it out of Kryptonian orbit and eventually found its way to Earth where he linked up with the young Clark Kent. Like any native of Krypton, Krypto has superpowers on Earth. In Smallville, the dog is a standard Earth dog who has been experimentally injected with kryptonite, giving him super-strength for a limited period of time, who escapes and links up with Clark (who suggests the name Krypto, ostensibly because of the dog's cryptic origins). It doesn't take too long for the dog's strength to fade, and the Kents decide to keep him, although they ultimately name him Shelby, after a dog that Martha Kent had in childhood.
