Lena gives the order to deploy Lexs ion cannon countermeasures, which Supergirl shrugs off.
But Kara sees it as proof that she needs to try talking to Lena one more time.
Im not going to give up on you, she vows.

Claymore 3 is standing by to destroy the hideout.
Karas horrified, but Alex points out that Kara was damned in Lenas eyes no matter what she did.
Ah, but Alex isnt done.
Shes more attuned to Lenas double-Luthor-life: hiding Reign, protecting Lex, secretly manufacturing Kryptonite.
For perspective, the last time this happened, ol RK brought about the destruction of Pompeii.
But he needs Acratas power from the medallion to fuel the Staff of the Shadow World because … reasons.
Well, dead along with all of humanity is a throw in of safety, right?
(Jonns Thats concerning is the most hilarious understatement of the night.)
Otherwise, whats the point of trying to save anyone?
Torn, Alex orders them to get Malefic ready but have Claymore standing by.
Hope/Eve offers to manually reposition them, but Lena wont sacrifice her only friend to Lexs likely countermeasures.
But Hope/Eve points out that shes not a friend; Lena created her to serve a purpose.
Lena Luthor is the loneliest lady on the planet, yall.
Give Lena her friends back in 2020!
Evil geniuses are exhausting.
Hope/Eve succeeds (and survives), and Lena launches Myriad.
Brainy pleads with Alex to order everyone to shut off their tech.
I lost, says a defeated Lena.
Sometimes the good guys dont win.
As backup plans go, its solid, but it doesnt really point to a good-guy situation.
Meanwhile, at the tar pits, Kara is trapped under concrete for (say it with me!)
reasons, and worse, she has to listen to Rama Khan deliver his big villain speech.
He picks up on the theme of the night and sneers that people never change.
(Mitch Pileggi is a champion sneerer.)
But Supergirl retorts that peoples capacity to change is what makes the world beautiful.
Yep, he failed, and guess who was behind it all: Gamemnae!
Andrea arrives back at her office having (presumably) removed the Leviathan debt from her tally.
At the DEO, Kara and Alex have one last chat about second chances and human nature.
WORK IT OUT, LADIES, EVERYONE IN THE AUDIENCE IS BEGGING YOU.
And he sends him on his way in everyones favorite classic-car spaceship.
So glad these brothers made peace!
And now hes ready.
For what, you ask?
But thats not the only piece the Monitors putting on the board.
Ive always been the hero, Lex insists, unaware that his sister recently said something similar.
And speaking of Lena, hed like to have a word with the Monitor about her.
Crisis is coming, yall!
