After Jonathan's wallet is stolen, Clark super-speeds after the thief but is stunned when he cannot catch him. The thief, Bart, a.k.a. The Flash later shows up at the farm and tries to talk Clark into leaving Smallville for a life on the road together, flexing their super powers. Meanwhile, Lex buys a priceless framed manuscript with Kryptonian symbols and Clark learns that it contains a mysterious hidden map. However, when Bart steals the manuscript from Lex, he inadvertently puts Clark's life in danger and must make the decision whether to save Clark or himself.

Bart: I say I’m gonna be somewhere, I’ll be there like a flash!
| Clark Kent/Kal-El of Krypton: So, what happened?
Alexander Joseph Luthor: I decided to play cowboy and got my spurs handed to me
| Bart: You know, I've always wondered if there was anyone out there like me, and it turns out to be you, Jimmy Crack Corn fresh from the farm.
| Bart: I'll be a thousand miles away before you can blink
Clark: I don't know, I can blink pretty fast.
| Bart: Your watch is fast. If there's one thing I never am, it's late. If I'm going to be somewhere, I'll be there like a flash.

Episode Goofs |
| |
How does Bart's hair stay so neat when he moves at such speeds - wouldn't the wind mess it up?
Just like the way Superman has an aura that extends ~2mm out from his body protecting his clothes from getting affected by explosions, shots, etc., The Flash has a similar aura protecting his body and clothes from burning up due to friction.

Cultural References |
| |
When Clark looks through Bart’s fake ID cards, the names are Jay Garrick, Barry Allen, and Wally West (the three Flashes from the comics)
| The pick up line Bart uses on Chloe, about being from the future, is a clever nod to the comicbook version Bart Allen’s origin.
| On Smallville, Bart is clearly faster than Clark. In the comics, the Flash and Superman are usually evenly matched, sometimes a little bit faster but not super faster.
| Bart's Clothes:
The red and yellow are the same clothing style The Flash implements into his uniform.
| Bart: ...Fastest man alive and all that...
This is the tag-line to most of his comics...
| Bart: Eat my shorts!
Bart, steals Bart Simpsons line from the popular show The Simpsons.
