Complicating the already daunting job of raising two boys, Clark and Lois must also concern themselves with whether or not their sons [[Jonathan Kent|Jonathan]] and [[Jordan Kent|Jordan]] could inherit their father's Kryptonian superpowers as they grow older. Returning to [[Smallville (Earth-Prime)|Smallville]] to handle some Kent family business, Clark and Lois are reacquainted with [[Lana Lang Cushing|Lana Lang]], a local loan officer who also happens to be Clark's first love, and her Fire Chief husband [[Kyle Cushing]]. The adults aren't the only ones rediscovering old friendships in Smallville as the Kent sons are reacquainted with Lana and Kyle's rebellious daughter, [[Sarah Cushing|Sarah]]. Of course, there's never a dull moment in the life of a superhero, especially with Lois' father, General [[Sam Lane|Samuel Lane]] looking for Superman to vanquish a villain or save the day at a moment's notice. Meanwhile, Superman and Lois' return to idyllic Smallville is set to be upended when both a mysterious stranger and impassioned self-made mogul [[Morgan Edge]] enter their lives.
