Supergirl

Previously on Supergirl...

All we have to do is travel back

to the high school's baseball diamond center field,

get a specimen of her DNA, use that with the Phantom striking powers

to locate Supergirl in the Phantom Zone.

A spaceship?

-Kara? -We are Brandon and Brenda.

This is Kenny, and this is Alex.

CJ Grant, Daily Planet.

I'm a journalist here on a big story.

Naxim Tork,

runs a cosmic menagerie.

So, uh, what did you want to talk about?

Power dampeners.

-What do we do? -

Thinking.

I came for a Kryptonian,

but a Naltorian...

and a Coluan...

Well, I say it adds a nice kitsch factor to our menagerie.

- Take this. -

There's gotta be some way out of this.

Brandon and Brenda in trouble.

Go. I'm right behind you.

The Kryptonian!

Now I've got you.

- - Kenny?

Alex? What are you--

Brenda called me.

Wait. Are you all right?

Yeah.

Kenny, Alex, it isn't safe!

- No! Kara! -

Kara. Kara, Speed Racer.

Where?

Give me the remote now...

or our friend

can bore a hole through you, and I can take it.

I'm going to win a Pulitzer.

-This place is amazing, guys. - Thank you.

I know I've been a bit of a grouch with you guys...

but thanks for all your help with the space psychos.

It was a team effort.

Naxim and his comrade are secured inside one of their cages.

I've re-cloaked their ship and alerted the proper intergalactic authorities.

Midvale won't be plagued by these two anymore.

-Space cops are a thing? -Indeed.

Accordingly, we should be on our way.

Hi, Mom.

Kenny Li.

I thank you for your service,

and for the exposure to the high school statusphere.

- -It was truly enlightening.

At least I was helpful then.

You guys did all the heavy lifting here.

I don't think I could keep having crazy adventures like that all the time.

It's not about how intense your adventures are.

It's about who you have them with.

Yeah, I completely agree.

I don't know how to thank you, Brenda.

Even if it was just for a little while,

it was nice to not feel like the only alien in town.

I promise you won't always feel that way.

Part of me wishes I could go with you and Brandon.

Supering in space has a nice ring.

-Yeah. -

Then again, Midvale has its perks.

I just hope one day I could grow up to be as cool of a hero as you.

Something tells me you'll be super.

We should get you two ready for prom.

Mom is going to go nuclear if we don't get photos first.

You are going to have so much fun.

Thanks for everything.

Safe travels.

Bye.

So what are we really gonna do with the bad guys?

I set the ship's course to Uruguay.

That's where Naxim was found in the original timeline.

In three days, his ship will de-cloak,

and an encrypted message will be sent to the DEO,

allowing us to fully realign space-time.

Easy-peasy.

What is that?

Another dream?

I saw the cage like before.

And I could hear the cougar nearby, but...

we've already captured Naxim and Mitch.

So why would the cage be empty?

Why would I be dreaming of them at all?

Perhaps it's a dream echo,

triggered by the ship's Bismolian energy.

Maybe.

Well, the Kryptonite meteor should be entering the Earth's atmosphere

any moment now.

As soon as we get the debris with Kara's blood on it,

our mission here is finished.

¶ I'm your biggest fan ¶

¶ I'll follow you Until you love me ¶

¶ Baby, there's No other superstar... ¶

Alex...

I know you are unhappy about Kenny and I supering.

And I know you're especially not thrilled about the whole intergalactic

zookeeper fight-y thing. But--

You were amazing today.

How you handled those bad guys.

How you handled yourself.

You should be proud, Kara.

I am.

I'm sorry if I've been overprotective lately.

When Dad put me in charge of your safety,

that job consumed me.

But then I went away to college

and I realized that I could be more than just Kara's older sister.

But then I came home and I saw you and Kenny supering,

and I was worried you were gonna mess things up.

That I was going to have to put my life on hold

to help sort yours.

But I was wrong.

You can handle anything that comes your way.

And I should have never forced you to talk to Kenny about NCU

when you weren't ready.

I am so sorry.

No, I'm... I'm glad you did.

You pushed me to finally figure out

what I want to do with my life,

to make a choice.

And I did.

I just...

hope it's the right one.

It is.

Because you made it.

Oh, wow. Check it out.

Wow.

-That's beautiful. -Hmm.

But... what do I do about this?

Or I could, like, take these off.

My advice?

You have to wear a mask every day.

Take the night off.

¶ Baby, you'll be famous ¶

¶ Chase you down Until you love me ¶

¶ Papa-paparazzi... ¶

Have a blast.

What are you doing?

I...

am gonna enjoy the show.

¶ We're plastic But we still have fun! ¶

¶ I'm your biggest fan ¶

¶ I'll follow you Until you love me ¶

¶ Papa-paparazzi... ¶

My apologies for the subpar attire.

It's the best I could do on short notice.

I... I don't know.

Do you think it's a little...

It's stunning.

You... You're stunning.

Thanks.

I believe it's, uh...

It's customary for couples attending prom

-to share a dance, no? -

Should I spin you? I'm spinning you.

You know, I never thanked you before...

for sharing your calming technique with me.

The "9:00 to 5:00" was quite effective.

Happy to help.

You're still worried, aren't you?

About your dream?

What if it's trying to warn me about something really important,

something life threatening, and that's why it keeps coming back?

How can I be a hero if I don't even understand how to use my own powers?

While we're in this time, I just wish I could...

But you know you can't.

Call your mom.

The meteor just entered the Earth's atmosphere right on time.

Let's finish this.

Mmm.

Something must be here somewhere.

Oh.

Yes!

Now, where are the lights?

I know I can find the right buttons to press.

My ex-husband can attest to that.

-Oh. -Thank you for releasing us, human.

Happy to help, extraterrestrial.

Now you can help me in return.
