"This world is a crazy place right now. People acting, reacting. Escalating behaviors. Like what Morgan Edge did to Lena. What our lawmakers are doing. Sniping at each other, going round and round in circles, not doing any good. Reminds me of Mars before the civil war. But like my father said then, 'There is great power in being the calm in the center of the storm. A beacon, to show the way.' Supergirl is here to remind us on Earth about what's best in ourselves. That's what's most important. It's more important than if you were to ever catch another bullet."
J'onn J'onzz to Kara Danvers

Lena's out on her gallery when Kara strolls in and asks her what she needed to discuss before. Lena admits that she had recently tried to kill Morgan Edge. Lena at that point discloses to Kara that her mother is back around. Lena requests Kara's assistance with saving Edge from Lillian.

Lena and Kara go to a function that Edge is facilitating and can move beyond his security. Lena attempts to get Edge to admit that he tried to kill Lena, and one of Lillian's drones begins taking shots at him. Under tension, Edge confesses to everything: the lead poisoning and the poisoning of Lena.

Trivia[]

  • Alex's mention of working as a doctor in Seattle before joining the F.B.I. is likely a nod to Chyler Leigh's role as Lexie Grey in Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice.
  • Winn reveals Superman has already killed Zod (at least by 2018). This is a reference to the 2013 film Man of Steel.
    • However, Mon-El revealed Zod will return in the future.
  • The armored Lexosuit that Lillian uses at the gala is very similar to Lex's purple and green armored warsuit he wears often in the comics.
  • Mon-El mentions getting the idea to use Lillian's drone against her from a battle alongside Brainy against Computo. In the comics, Computo was a supervillain created by Brainiac 5.
  • Winn says, "Sorry, these are not the drones you're looking for." In Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, Obi-Wan Kenobi uses the Force to convince two Stormtroopers to overlook R2D2 and C-3PO by waving his hand and saying, "These aren't the droids you're looking for."
  • The title of this episode references the song from the musical Wicked.

Goofs[]

  • The series takes place in the U.S., but at 6:54, the speedometer and odometer in Edge's car show speed and mileage in kilometers as used in Canada, where the series is filmed.
  • At the gala when Lena shows Edge the audio recorder, the way she holds it changes between shots.
