Okay, Lex got abducted by Brainaic/Professor Fine's ship. When he came back, he was altered to have all of Clark's powers. It wasn't his choice, but he told Lana everything about his powers. Lex proves he has powers by shooting a gun into his hand.
Meanwhile, Clark found out that someone was going to become the host of Zod. It was going to be Lex, and Clark wasn't able to stop it.
So Lex ends up possessed by Zod, and trying to take over the world. He traps Clark in the Phantom Zone, there's a riot in Metropolis and it looks like Lionel and Chloe will die, as they are pulled from the limo by a mob.
Slowly, all the lights go out on Earth. (Zod used Brainaic to cause a virus to take out all electrical things and computers--to cause panic.) Clark is going through space inside the crystal/Phantom Zone thing.
And as the riots cause fire through the streets, Zod/Lex is standing on top of the Lexcorp building, looking down in satisfaction. Lana arrives (somehow fought her way through the chaos) and says "Lex? I'm here--was this just another test?"
She doesn't know that it's Zod in there and not Lex. He stands for a moment, and looks down at her like he's calculating something. Then, he grabs her and kisses her.
And that's where it ends.
It's an incredible episode, and Rosenbaum does a great job portraying Zod inside Lex as a different person. (Since there aren't any glowing eyes or a different voice or anything.)
