"Call to Action" is the sixth episode of the fourth season of Supergirl, and the seventy-first episode overall. It aired on November 18, 2018.
Synopsis
Everyone gathers for Thanksgiving but Kara is feeling down after her televised debate with Ben Lockwood about the anti-alien sentiment coursing through National City. Meanwhile, James and Lena argue about the best way to handle the Children of Liberty.[src] |
Trivia
- After Colonel Haley reprimands Supergirl and Alex, the latter describes her as acting "Dolores Umbridge-y" at the D.E.O. and goes on to say that if it continues, she will go "full Weasley twin" on her. This is a reference to Dolores Umbridge, and Fred and George Weasley, characters in the Harry Potter franchise. In fifth film in the series, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Fred and George prank Umbridge during her tyranny at their school.
- When a dragon-like creature begins rampaging through the city, Alex remarks, "that's what I get for making a Harry Potter reference".
- Manchester greets J'onn as "my favorite Martian", referencing the TV series of the same name.
- Brainiac 5 arrives at Kara's apartment the same way Mon-El did in "Medusa".
Goofs
- In the Children of Liberty's manifesto, "plagues" is misspelled as "plaques".
