This is what I'm talking about. What plot threads? Please tell me these loose plot threads that bother so many people. The closest thing to a loose plot thread outside of the Light I could see is maybe some more solid bonding between Clark and Conner, but Clark telling Conner his human name clearly showed that Clark had gotten past his biggest mental block about the whole thing.

There is no way the Light was disbanded over the timeskip. If the season finale made one thing clear, it's that the Light is a long-term thing that can act under the League's radar to work towards large goals. The last thing we hear Savage say is that they're starting Phase Two. It is entirely possible Phase Two could take five years before it reached a level that drew the League's attention. Every member of the Light has people under them the League has no why of knowing about in detail.

Again, what loose plot threads?
