It\u2019s a Smallville<\/a> reunion! <\/p>\n

Erica Durance guest stars as one of Cassandra\u2019s (Kristin Kreuk) childhood friends as they work on a fundraiser on Murder in a Small Town Season 1 Episode 4.<\/p>\n

Durance guest-stars as Emma O\u2019Brea, whose husband has disappeared, and the spoilers hint that the case becomes complicated. Cassandra feels torn between her old friend as secrets arise and helping Karl solve this case.<\/p>\n

This will be another massive week to bring in another fanbase since Erica Durance<\/a>\u2018s storyline has also been in several promos. <\/p>\n

She and Kristin haven\u2019t acted together in around 15 years.<\/p>\n

In addition to this exciting reunion and intriguing case, several spoiler photos hint that Cassandra and Karl\u2019s relationship speeds up and that she meets his daughter.<\/p>\n

Smallville Actresses Reunite as Childhood Friends<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s the Smallville reunion we\u2019ve been waiting for since the official trailer for Murder in a Small Town was released.<\/p>\n

Cassandra (Kristin Kreuk<\/a>) reunites with her old friend Emma O\u2019Brea (Erica Durance) at an arts center fundraiser.<\/p>\n

It starts with a beautiful reunion, but Emma later discovers that her husband, Charlie, has disappeared. <\/p>\n

She turns to Cassandra for comfort and assistance, and Cassandra introduces her to Karl and his team.<\/p>\n

Did a Scorned Wife Commit Murder?<\/h2>\n

A crime took place at the O\u2019Shea\u2019s residence, but it\u2019s unclear if he was abducted or murdered initially.<\/p>\n

If anyone can solve it, it\u2019s Karl and his team since he\u2019s well-versed at finding clues others often miss.<\/p>\n

Emma O\u2019Brea insists to Det. Alberg that everyone loves her husband Charlie (Toby Levins). If you\u2019ve watched enough police procedurals, that\u2019s a red flag.<\/p>\n

Almost everyone has an enemy, and it usually starts at home. The more Karl talks to Emma, the more disturbing secrets are revealed.<\/p>\n

Since Charlie is so well-loved, I wonder if he had an affair, especially since Emma has uncovered secrets about her husband.<\/p>\n

There are very few things that have a wife holding a gun to her husband, emotionally asking why she wasn\u2019t enough for him. <\/p>\n

The only other thing would be if she learned that Charlie had another life that didn\u2019t include her, and he wanted out.<\/p>\n

That undoubtedly pushed Emma over the edge. <\/p>\n

However, did she kill him and report him missing? That\u2019s an overdone trope in police procedurals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Charlie and his fling could have disappeared, and Emma could have found them before the cops did. <\/p>\n

It sounds like there were many secrets in this disturbing marriage.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t wait to learn if it will be a common trope or something exciting like from Gone Girl. Those missing-person cases are twisty.<\/p>\n

Cassandra\u2019s Torn Between An Old Friend and Karl<\/h2>\n

The promo teases that Karl eventually suspects Emma did something to her husband, Charlie.<\/p>\n

That puts Cassandra in a tight spot between her childhood friend and her cop boyfriend. She\u2019s more likely to know what her friend is capable of, but will she want to betray her?<\/p>\n

Since the episode synopsis teases Cassandra and shares some vital clues with Karl, she must find something compelling about Emma and Charlie\u2019s marriage.<\/p>\n

Hopefully, we\u2019ll see Cassandra in an investigative mode and as a sympathetic friend. Seeing her as only Karl\u2019s girlfriend has gotten tedious since we barely saw her at the library since the season premiere.<\/p>\n

This promises to be thought-provoking since it will affect Cassandra\u2019s relationship with Emma and her blossoming romance with Karl.<\/p>\n

How Will The O\u2019Shea\u2019s Marriage Affect Cassandra and Karl?<\/h2>\n

At the end of Murder in a Small Town Season 1 Episode 3,<\/a> Cassandra finally admitted how much she cared about Karl when he almost died in a burning fire.<\/p>\n

However, will seeing everything blow up in one of her oldest friend\u2019s marriages set them back?<\/p>\n

She still seemed wary of commitment after being single for so long, and it\u2019s challenging to become serious later in life while balancing careers, children, and relationship fears.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m excited that the two will focus on real-life issues, not just having a case come between them. <\/p>\n

It looks like Cassandra takes a leap of faith and trusts Karl with information from the spoiler photos and the synopsis.<\/p>\n

Meeting Dad\u2019s New Girlfriend<\/h2>\n

The spoiler photos tease Karl\u2019s teenage daughter, Holly (Dakota Guppy), who visits again. She\u2019s come a long way from the teenager barely speaking to him in the series premiere, but teenage girls\u2019 moods fluctuate.<\/p>\n

Even though she\u2019s relaxed around Karl, how will Holly react to meeting Cassandra? <\/p>\n

Initially, Karl mentioned his daughters wanted him to place that dating ad, but in theory, that\u2019s different from meeting someone who\u2019s not your mom.<\/p>\n

The photo shows Holly smiling, so hopefully, Cassandra put her at ease. <\/p>\n

I\u2019ve asked for more family scenes to learn about Karl and his daughters, so I\u2019m anxious to see how they mesh in scenes.<\/p>\n
