I can't believe this. Catherine Jane Grant came back and single-handedly saved this show. I've missed her humor. I've missed her inspirational speeches. I've missed her being a mentor to Kara and guiding her. What I wouldn't give for her to be a regular again.

Good episode overall. I liked the whole team working together (we really should get more of that next season and less of whatever the hell we got in most of this year's episodes). I'm slowly realizing that I kind of hate season 2. Yeah, okay, it's had its share of good or even great episodes, it introduced Maggie and Lena, and Alex's coming out storyline was spectacular. But it also murdered Kara's character development and focused too much on Mon-El (he had the third largest amount of screentime this season, only behind Kara and Alex, and he got more screentime than Maggie and James COMBINED) and his shitty, toxic relationship with Kara. But what did I expect, really? This is the CW. They love their arrogant selfish white boys and hate their female protagonists. I don't know why I thought they'd treat Kara with respect and allow her to grow. And the sad thing is, I will keep watching because I still care too much about some of the characters.

Can Rhea just fucking die already? And Lillian Luthor too? Honestly, they should just lock them up in a room together and let them kill each other.

Well, Superman is here. Looks like we're getting a Super fight next episode. I can already see all the property damage.

@aniela-krajewska I'm agree with you about Mon-El but if we are honest we know that the screen time of Supergirl's boyfriend always will be more than the other characters. That's a fact. I love Maggie and yes her character deserves more screen time but we already know is almost a miracle when she appears bc the DEO and Supergirl don't work with the NCPD at all. The writers are wasting the relationship of Alex and Maggie. If you have a police detective and a secret agent dating, you must use it for the show, and instead they apply the "we don't mix the things", come on! Hope that they think about it for season 3.
