A lot of intense stuff in this episode. I loved it.
I very much enjoyed the flashbacks and all the little pieces of backstory: J'onn becoming Hank and Jeremiah's involvement, Alex's wild days, Kara and Alex's difficult start (I'd love to see how their relationship progressed from there and how they eventually grew so close together) and Kara's beginnings at CatCo.
We also got Kara Danvers, a precious ray of sunshine who may or may not be a puppy in disguise, riding a motorcycle, clad in black. Unexpected, but very, very cool.
Lucy's finally in the loop, thank God. Also, she's back. I half-expected them to get rid of her now that her role as a third wheel in James and Kara's 'love story' has ended, but it's nice to see her again, without her dull boyfriend stuck to her side at all times.
Siobhan's a bitch (and she apparently has the most annoying superpower ever), Cat's flawless and Alex's a badass and the best human being on the face of this planet, but what else is new?
Overall, it was a solid episode, character-focused, which is what Supergirl does best. I'm very excited about the crossover with The Flash next week.
