I thought I knew what was going on before the credits, but after the credits, no fucking clue.
Wait... What?
But.. But.. but.. what about that stuff with Ray? He couldn't have done that from within, right?
I'm puzzled......
I really love Kara's emotionally heave scenes. But seriously, is this going to be the same every single week? Hello Kara and welcome back to Supergirl, how what emotional issue can we write for you today? Things aside, that departure from Krypton was pretty dope and heartbreaking, especially when you see Kal-El's pod jump into hyper space and Kara's doesn't. Psi was cool though. Not a very strong meta but she did put everyone in a tough position and the fears she brought to the characters were an interesting way of setting up the story and a whole new bunch of plot lines that were missed after the premiere. I was a bit disappointing that Kara's greatest fear wasn't re-living her home being blown up but how guilty she felt for putting Mon-El on that pod. Putting it all aside, her greatest fear wasn't what happened to Mon-El and her guilt over allegedly killing him, but putting him in the same position she was. She did exactly the same she hated her mom for doing.
The Sam/Ruby combo felt a bit weird, though. But I liked that the writers set them up as normal characters. Ruby is an annoying brat running towards danger. That pissed me off. However, her overconfidence made me think she's developing powers of some sort. And Sam is just focused on being a mother and we already know she's the big bad this season, so having her acting all normal was refreshing. I guess it'll be Ruby the one who pushes her to realize her powers but that last scene showed that she can't use them whenever she wants but when really needed.
Big-ass giant hole at CatCo' elevator. nñNo one notices. Kara even left her belongings there. It's hard to believe they don't have CCTV footage of her flying out the elevator.
I feel like the Maggie/Alex relationship is not gonna last long. Maybe it was that stupid argument but I can feel. I don't forsee a happy ending for them. Plus, Maggie is there just to be Alex girlfriend. They should give her a job at the CEO to develop her character. Lena was great.
BO-KATAN!
This was the episode I was waiting for from this season. Finally, we progress a little bit of the season's overarching goal, and we get everyone's suspicions confirmed. Bo-Katan and Ahsoka Tano are coming to the Mandalorian!
Not only this, but we finally get an explanation as to why Mando acts so different compared to those in other Star Wars media (e.g. Star Wars: The Clone Wars). He's apart of a Mandalorian clan (cult) who wants to restore the original way of the Mandalore. It all makes sense now.
Seeing him interact with Bo-Katan and think they're fake Mandalorians at first was pretty amusing. It's quite a "fish out of water" moment.
I love this show.
IT'S SO MUCH FUN.
TECHNICAL SCORE: 7/10
ENJOYMENT SCORE: 8/10
My name ia Hunter Zolomon and I am the highest Man Alive. When I was a child I saw my father shooting my mother. My father went to prison for her murder. Then I went to an orphanage because nobody wanted me. Then an accident made me the impossible. To the outside World I am an ordinary hero whose name is Jay Garrick, but in secret I kill time remnants to mentally confuse Others and find speedsters like me. One day, I'll find Barry Allen and I'll race him. I am Zoom
Oh man the Red Tornado was not well done. He moved like a human trying his best to seem like a robot but not quite getting there. Felt pretty awkward. That aside I hope this ep spells the end of the Kara x James stuff and focuses more on the Supergirl and the character stuff. Really liked the scenes with Cat and the views on how women are perceived/expected to act. Loved the rage heat vision at the end also!
