User blog:Xandermcc/Supergirl S2 E13 Mr. and Ms. Myghistiquick?

(I'm kidding, i know his name)

So this episode is all about Jealousy. And how it is good and it will get you the girl. I'm learning so many bad messages from this show.

Mr. Mxyzptlk comes into the episode with the most humorous introduction ever. As that is how Mr. Mxy rolls. (+2) We also get to see Kara in a wedding dress which is good.

J'onn is researching the Fifth dimension sightings and forshadowing the defeat of Mxyzptlk. +1

The episode goes back to Maggie and Alex's life and the start of their B plot is a lot like a fanfic about them. The end of that plot is much more interesting. -1

Winn has a Valentines Date! In the form of Lyra Strayd. From the planet Starhaven from Season one. It also reminds us that Winn has a great many pieces of knowledge on the cosmos. +1

So Mxy is escalating his "wooing" of Kara from flowers to murder. Mon-El responds by wanting to kill him. Kara doesn't kill. However Mon-El's reason for wanting to kill him is because of jealousy. Not a good reason for murder. -1

2/10

Mxy then brings Parasite back from the dead. Forcing Kara out in the open to save the day with the help of SuperMxyzptlk. An humorous fakeout and an awesome action scene seeing Parasite again. +2

So Mxyzptlk brings up some good points about Kara's love life. Making me feel pretty conflicted about this situation considering that he is a villain. (An amazing villain, but still a villain) However he is good at knowing more about Supergirl and who she is more than Mon-El. On the other hand, Mon-El is not trying to murder everyone on the planet, but also doesn't understand her and makes her life harder all the time. So i'm giving the point to Mxy here. +1

I'm allowing this scene to speak for itself. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_r6xythCbKk

(+1) Mon-El's outburst after Kara lets him have it however... sounds like a total whiner. He sound like he expects approval for doing... something good that he never did? It is really ridiculous. -2

So the next scene, Mon-El says this line. "Things were easier on Daxam when i objectified women and didn't care about them" This is coming out of the mouth of Supergirl's love interest's mouth. WTF? -2

Maggie once again says that she hates Valentines Day, however this time she gives the reason for it which is that her parents actually weren't supportive of her coming out as gay. (Want more proof, see Season 3. Dad can't go to their bridal shower without barfing) It is a pretty good moment in the show and actually steers the bland person hates Valentines Day into a good direction. +1

The fight between Mxy and Mon-El is very funny. Using lots of slapstick in a similar way to a lot of Mxyzptlk's pranks in the Animated Series. +2

Frankly Kara brings up a lot of good points about Mxy. When the supervillains are better choices than your so called heroic love interest, then you know you have failed. -1

4/10

Mxy is stopped in such a humorous way by Kara. I loved how they ended it. Especially with an amazing message about love. +3

...But, the ending to the episode basically destroys the entire "You can't force love message". Basically going with "You can't force love, unless it is with a hot looking guy". Then Kara and Mon-El have sex to allow him to know that it is okay to be who he is. Worst Valentines Day message ever. -2

Score is 5/10. Mxyzptlk has summoned me some bonus rounds to use though.

Winn's final moment with Lyra was very good. +2

Those thugs that attacked in broad daylight to steal money when Supergirl is in National City. They are beginners. -1

Final score is a 6/10. Next we got some time with Dean Cain again!
