Supergirl

When I was a child, my planet Krypton was dying.

I was sent to Earth to protect my cousin.

But my pod got knocked off-course

and by the time I got here,

my cousin had already grown up and become Superman.

I hid who I really was

until one day when an accident forced me to reveal myself to the world.

To most people, I'm a reporter at CatCo Worldwide Media.

But in secret, I work with my adoptive sister for the DEO

to protect my city from alien life

and anyone else that means to cause it harm.

I am Supergirl.

Previously on Supergirl...

I've never met a human that was actually up for dating an alien.

Well, now you have.

Any idea what Jeremiah stole from us?

It's not good. He took the national alien registry.

What is it?

Cadmus has the list of all the aliens in the country.

How could you?

You betrayed everyone.

Would you believe me if I said I did it for you?

Oh, crap.

Even they can't stand your singing.

Sorry to pull you over, but I saw you have a broken taillight.

I do? Sorry, Officer.

Lucky for you, I have some tape for that.

Come on, I'll help you put it on.

See how nice everyone is, once you leave the city.

I don't understand. You said it was broken?

_

Out of the car!

No! No! Run!

Ah!

Let me go!

Baby! My baby!

What are you going to do to us?

What are you going to do to us?

That's the 20th abduction since Cadmus got the alien registry.

And they're escalating. Getting more aggressive.

Are we any closer to finding out where Cadmus is taking them?

Or what they want?

'Cause that is the trillion dollar question.

It's million dollar question, buddy.

Really? That low?

Yes, and um, "no" on all counts.

Um, I mean I've monitored traffic cams,

sat feeds, cell phone chatter, uh...

Maybe Jeremiah taught them how to avoid our radar.

From now on Jeremiah Danvers is an enemy combatant.

What does that mean?

It means, if found, he's to be arrested on sight.

That's not a problem, is it?

Of course not.

Good.

We have to let all these aliens know.

They need to be able to protect themselves.

I volunteer to tell everybody at the alien dive bar.

But it's not enough to just let all the aliens in the bar know.

There are hundreds more on that list.

Can you issue a statement?

Not without compromising the DEO. We're off the books for a reason.

So do it anonymously.

If we do it anonymously, no one will take us seriously.

But they might listen to CatCo.

I'll write an article, get it on the front page.

You think Snapper would run that?

Yeah, of course. Absolutely.

Absolutely not.

I'm not gonna start a public panic by publishing a conspiracy theory.

But Supergirl spoke on the record.

I mean, you saw all those sound bites.

You use Supergirl as your source

every time you want to get something past me.

You said a good reporter should always cultivate her source.

Sources. Plural.

I'm not gonna take your word for it.

Way too much fake news out there. I can't risk it.

So, what, you're willing to put people's lives in danger

than risk hurting your reputation?

Careful, ponytail. You're at DEFCON 3 with the moxie.

We're the paper of record in this town.

From now on, you need at least two independent sources verifying every single quote,

no matter whose life is at stake.

What if you interviewed Supergirl?

I mean, you've interviewed our Presidents,

world leaders, Julian Assange.

You'd be able to tell if she was a credible source or not.

Better be an exclusive.

Of course. She won't speak to anyone else.

Ah, game.

Which means you owe me dinner,

a bottle of Scotch,

and one of those flash grenade things.

It's like The Twelve Days of Christmas.

- Alex? - I'm sorry.

- I'm just... I'm... - thinking about your dad.

Don't worry. The DEO's gonna find him.

That is what I'm worried about.

The DEO considers him a threat.

When we find Cadmus, things are gonna get rough

and he could get caught in the crossfire.

He stole the registry from the DEO. He hurt J'onn.

But, Maggie, I know him.

He's a good man.

And even if he is siding with Cadmus, there has to be a reason.

He's either, I don't know,

threatening him or they're blackmailing him,

or they are mind controlling him or...

I am the only one left who believes in him.

Well, you're gonna be there when they find him.

Okay? And you're gonna help protect him.

- You're right. - Mmm-hmm.

Double or nothing? There's no way I'm giving you a grenade.

Fine. I'll go get us another round.

Okay. Well, I'll rack.

And, while I loved the movie version of Dune, as I expected,

- except for... - The Sandworms.

I mean, the Fremen just peel apart their scales with hooks

and suddenly worm-riding is a viable mode of transportation?

- Yeah. - I don't think so. So unrealistic.

But the Bene Gesserit are...

Amazing!

Amazing.

I mean, mystical women with the power to influence the future?

I'm here for it. I'm here for it.

Lyra, how long have you been on Earth?

A couple of years. But I learned English off-world.

Your English is impressive.

But I'm actually a lot more impressed by how well you speak "Winn."

Okay.

- Yeah, we get each other. - Yeah, babe.

- I think we need some more drinks. - Okay.

- I'll be right back. - All right.

- Well, well, well. - What?

You really like this girl.

Uh, she's okay.

"She's okay." What're you talking about? "She's okay"?

Come... Listen, okay, listen. I know I generally fall,

like, hard and fast for a girl but...

I don't know. I'm listening to your advice, and I'm gonna take it slow.

Listen, I am like the twice-bitten, thrice-shy guy, so...

Lyra, where are you?

Winn.

Hey!

Let me go!

No! No!

No! No!

Get off of me.

I'll get her.

No!

Freeze! Or I will shoot.

Stop. Roll out, boys!

Lady here, she's about to drop her gun. Isn't she, huh?

Let her go.

No! No!

I should've gotten there sooner.

I mean, if these guys hadn't come in then I would've...

- We'll get her back, Winn. - You don't know that, okay?

We don't know anything, all right?

Hank, are you sure you can't get anything from this guy?

Cadmus must've found a way to shield his thoughts from me.

But we will find something, Winn. We always do.

Everything I've tried, it's led to nothing.

And if they hurt her, your father,

- I'm sorry, but this is his fault. - Agent Schott.

Hey, uh...

Winn, you know what you need right now?

If you say "a drink," I swear, I...

Oh, I was going to say "deep breath," but that is a much better idea.

'Cause Zakarian Ale always takes the edge off. I'm gonna go get a bottle.

Like I said to the other guy that came in to talk to me,

I got nothing to say to you people.

Yeah, that's what I heard.

- Now, me... - Ah!

I bet you've got loose lips.

Now tell me, where is Cadmus?

- Tell me where Cadmus is. - Ah!

- Tell me where Cadmus is! - I can't.

Okay, they put stuff in my head, all right?

They'll know. They'll kill me.

Well, it's either them or it's me.

Tell me!

- Alex! Come on, get out of here! - She's crazy!

One more word out of you and she's the least of your problems.

- Come on. - All right, all right!

Look, I'm sorry. I know I was out of line. I just...

Alex...

I just thought I could get him to tell us something.

Alex, he can't tell us anything if he's dead.

I would have stopped.

What Winn said about your father...

This has nothing to do with him, okay?

I just want to help Winn find Lyra. I wanted...

I want to find them all, okay, before Cadmus...

You know, maybe Mon-El was right.

We all could use a deep breath. Or a drink.

I'm fine.

Okay? I promise.

Hey, Chief. Supergirl is here in James' office.
