- The scene where he appears is a deleted scene originally meant as a flashback in Season 4's "The House of L"^[1]
This episode had a large number of flashbacks including:
- When Lena Luthor decided to move to National City after Supergirl stopped the Myriad attack in "Better Angels".
- When Supergirl and Superman saved Lena Luthor in "The Adventures of Supergirl"
- Lex Luthor telling Lena that Kara Danvers in Supergirl in "The Quest for Peace".

In a flashback:

- Kara wore her stripped sweater from "Will The Real Miss Tessmacher Please Stand Up?"

Goofs

Supergirl saved the school bus in "The Quest for Peace", 10 weeks ago, however, the episode claimed 2 weeks later Lena Luthor called Andrea Rojas into her office to negotiate selling CatCo Worldwide Media. However, Lena had already sold CatCo in "The Quest for Peace", before Supergirl saved the school bus.
The flashback of Lena and Andrea met each other takes place 15 years ago, although Lena is 26, which would make her only 11 years old at the time. This is impossible, because they would not have been able to pass as 21-year-olds at the bar, if that was the case.
