    Storyline

    • Trivia
      According to Brandon Routh on Twitter, the "bulletproof coffee" Cat mentions in this episode was used by writer Andrew Kreisberg after Routh's "obsessive" use of the term. Routh, of course, played the title character in Superman Returns (2006) and stars as The Atom in Arrow (2012) and its spin-offs.
    • Goofs
      At the scene of the traffic collision, Supergirl's path is blocked by a fallen electricity cable that appears to be live as it is sparking and dancing around. She grabs the cable and snaps it which 'kills it'. Live wires do not spark and dance, and snapping the cable would have no effect; That's not how electricity works.
    • Quotes

      Winn Schott: Ah. An interesting choice of mentioning that in an interview. Isn't that a little dangerous?

      Kara Danvers: I didn't mean to. I got confused. It just popped out. She... She tricked me. She's like a villain. She's like a super interviewing villain.

      Winn Schott: That is literally the most boring power ever.

    Supergirl is very hot.
    This episode is even better than the previous episode supergirl is great and hot. And i can't wait for the next episode. And I hope that CBS continues to go through with this fantastic series. Finally a nice series which really appeals to me. I think it's a good thing that the creator chose sure that someone like supergirl whit superpowers is not 100% foolproof and make mistakes. What this series makes it a lot more human and clearly shows that you can learn from any mistakes and weaknesses. So I really hope that we will see a lot of more of kara aka supergirl. Because I would find it really a missed opportunity if cbs choose not to continue after this season with supergirl.
