Chrissy Parker (Maggie Lawson) is the main antagonist in the 2002 episode "Redux" for the TV series "Smallville".
Chrissy Parker is the captain of the cheerleading squad at Smallville High School and friend of Lana Lang.
While attending a swimming competition, she kissed the current champion Troy Turner, who subsequently sank to the bottom of the pool after rapidly aging during a race with Clark Kent.
Later she kissed Russell Burton and repeated the process, aging him in a matter of seconds. It is learned that she has the ability to absorb the life energy from the people that she kisses. The rate at which she absorbed their victim's youth apparently varied according to the length of time she kissed them.
Remebering that he had seen her with both victims prior to their deaths, Clark asked Chloe to look into her past, which resulted in Chloe learning that there were multiple cases of triple-'uber-progeria' stretching back until around the "Morton's school for girls" class of 1921. All of them featured Chrissy present in some form or another, under such aliases as 'Missy Parker' or 'Robin Stroud'. According to one high school yearbook, she was most likely to "Live for a hundred years".
Due to her being confronted by the new principal, Terrence Reynolds, about the lack of records from her old school and his inability to contact her parents, Chrissy knocked him out and attempted to drain his life energy.
As she prepared to absorb Reynolds' life, Clark confronted her and told her to stop, Chrissy defending her actions by explaining that she regarded absorbing peoples' life energy as 'saving' them from lives that would never be as good, youthful or perfect as they were at present.
When she moved back towards Reynolds and attempted to drain Clark's life energy, Clark threw her through a stage set, crashing onto an electric keyboard. Before he could reach her, Chrissy looked at her reflection on a spinning mirror and her enhanced aging caught up with her, resulting in her collapsing into a pile of ash in a matter of seconds.
