has been highjacked by a little girl shapeshifting into a T-rex.
This proves true when Kara joins the team at the site of a massive energy spike.
CAT GRANT WOULD NEVER.
I feel like you cant.
Anyway, Andreas not done with the changes.
Then she notices Lena lurking in a hallway alone and goes to have a difficult conversation.
She comes right out with it: Im Supergirl.
Ive always been Supergirl.
I shouldve told you so long ago.
And when she falls, she picks herself up again and offers the truth even when its hard.
The women embrace, and Lena whispers that Kara will always be her best friend.
Kara whips off her glasses, and we get to watch her new suit materialize over her body.
Cool, but you know what thatsnota part of?
Non-compete clauses, which Im pretty sure dont bar you from an industry for life.
At the alien bar, Nia finally asks Brainy why he gets weird every time they touch.
Nia assures him that hes not a Miranda, and they kiss.
Kara-in-Supergirl clothes lands on Lenas balcony, where our favorite Luthors chilling in jeans.
(Its rare enough that it feels worth a mention.)
Kara gives her a watch with a Supergirl beacon and promises that therell be no more secrets between them.
When someone betrays us, we sting.
Then she asks Hope to load a VR simulation that opens with a punch.
Finally, we see Eve in waitress garb get black-bagged in an alley.
Still not quite sure.
Well see how this storyline plays out.
