    I said to as many people as would listen at the time that "Superman" was the least interesting character on the WB/CW show Smallville, that all the other characters were far more interesting and engaging. Allison Mack's character of Chloe, a wholly created character just for the show, previously unknown in Superman canon, was definitely one of those. I think she got as much or more air time than Tom Welling did. Allison Mack's arrest as a procurer for a guy running a sex slave shop comes as a complete surprise. The report is that her $5 million bail came from her own house and assets as well as those of her parents, and that she will be living with her parents until her trial. I'll bet that was an interesting conversation. "Hi, mom, I've been arrested, can you come bail me out?" "Arrested!? For what!?" "I've been helping a guy round up sex slaves." "Allison! Sex slaves? How could you? How many? Two, three?" "Fifty." "Oh, my God. How much is it going to take to bail you out?" "Five million dollars." *faints*

    I've been following the story a bit. I wonder if she was always nutty or if she just got nutty later in life? I'd watch the 20/20 interview where she describes why she thought collecting sex slaves was a good idea.

    And although her character isn't "canon" outside of her show, Supergirl gave a small nod to her character by referencing Clark's friend Chloe, who has a wall of weird.

    There's a small but noticeable contingent of people who believe all actors are nutty. Personally, I'm impressed with her loyalty to this guy. Not too many women will share their guy with other women, much less with 50 sex slaves. Then there's the woman who flew a helicopter into a prison yard to rescue her boyfriend. Where do you find women like this?

    Or are we thinking about this all wrong and we should be asking, what's he got that I ain't got? How does the guy make the woman go all crazy for him that she'll round up sex slaves for him? That she'll rescue him from jail with a helicopter?
