The pieces are coming together but we still have questions in Season 7 Episode 15: Veritas. When Clark and Kara attempt and fail to thwart Brainiac, Lana suffers the consequences.

This week we go deep into Lex's psyche with the 12th episode of season 7: Fracture. When Lex is shot in Detroit, the only way to save him is for Clark to take a journey into his mind, where he confronts little Alexander and the darkness he's been carrying since childhood.
