They've been setting up Chloe as a villain since last season, when the Legion told Clark that no one knew of Chloe in the future. Chloe's darkness has been hinted at for some time. She mind raped that one guy in the hospital. Later, she claimed that it was Brainiac but got called on it.
Chloe's anger at Clark for refusing to save Jimmy is a parallel storyline to Zod's anger at Jor-El's unwillingness to bring back his son. I have a feeling that Zod is just a distraction to keep us from focusing on Chloe's decline into darkness. Smallville is taking a page from Buffy's Willow storyline.
Mark my words. Chloe's anger and loss over Jimmy will turn her into a villain and will lead to her death, which may or may not be the impetus to get Clark into the suit.
