‘Superman & Lois’ season 3 should reveal a big secret to Kyle

The Secret Keeps Kyle in Superman & Lois

Somewhat surprisingly, Kyle grew noticeably over the first two seasons. Although it was ultimately revealed that he was unfaithful in his marriage to Lana, resulting in their separation, Kyle took responsibility for what he did. He tried to make the process of parting as easy as possible for Lana, heartbroken because of this betrayal. Through this experience, he became a more understanding and less volatile character, paying close attention to his daughter Sarah and how to get back to his new normal as quickly as possible. In the season three premiere, Kyle, finally in good health, has come to terms with the fact that his marriage to Lana is over and has become a level-headed character.

Given that much of his history has been based on keeping secrets and admitting the truth, the prospect of everyone in Kyle’s life having to lie to him is already exhausting. His marriage was ruined because of secrets, but he still has a chance to be on good terms and be friends with Lana as parents, but this cannot happen if she at least lies to him about Clark from time to time. The same goes for Sarah, who is aware of Clark and Jordan’s abilities, but to a greater extent. Lana not talking to her ex-husband about something like this is more understandable, but Sarah should be able to have real conversations with him. both her parents. This is the ultimate secret to keep and will influence many decisions, especially in her romantic relationship with Jordan if the two rekindle their relationship in the future. This pushes the already unbalanced scales even further away from Kyle, which will ultimately hurt the character - and, let’s face it, he’s not one of the best in the series anymore, given Kyle’s constant underutilization and confusion about what to do with him. to him.

Will the secret ruin his new relationship?

Likewise, in the new season, Kyle and Chrissy began an extremely unexpected romantic relationship, giving Kyle a second chance for a happily ever after. In a way, the secret is that she plays a bigger role in Chrissy’s life than even Sarah’s. Chrissy is now working with both Lois and Clark, so his superheroes have become a part of her daily life. She has a whole new dynamic to figure out now, given the inevitable coverage of Superman’s antics that will be overshadowed by her feelings for Clark and Lois. In addition, Lois is her best friend, so their friendship will finally become real. It’s a really exciting time for Chrissy, but it’s also not hard to see where she might have trouble going forward. The Smallville Gazette is Chrissy’s life, as she herself says, so here she is at much greater risk than just friendship.

However, given that Kyle’s marriage ended because of a secret, it still seems rather counterproductive for the character’s story to introduce a new relationship in which a major secret is kept from him. If the writers really want to do right with Kyle, they need to continue his growth from the first two seasons by being more open and honest. Perhaps they will, and his relationship with Chrissy is already doomed, because he will cancel everything if and when he finds out that she is keeping this main secret. (This isn’t so much about keeping a secret, but about the lies required to keep a secret.) However, that would be pretty disappointing, especially since it could potentially be the show’s final season. Superman and Lois. This new relationship with Chrissy has to mean something and lead to something important for both characters.

The easiest way to avoid trouble and any unnecessary drama is to simply tell Kyle the secret early on. There is no reason No tell him, but he has a lot of reasons to know, which will allow Kyle to play a bigger role in the series. Being the only member of the main cast who doesn’t know the secret is a recipe for disaster. This will still leave Kyle in an isolated and almost meaningless role on the show, never having enough information to be an important part of the story or an equal in it. any his relationship. The show has always struggled with how to turn on Kyle, but here’s the chance to do just that. Let Kyle reveal the secret and let his relationship be completely real and free of secrets and lies. Valdez is a great performer and there’s interesting potential for Kyle’s relationship, especially now that he’s become a more tolerant and less angry person. Simply put, let the character continue to grow, rather than become stagnant or regress, which is something he is seriously in danger of doing this season.
