Trivia[]
- The episode's title is a pun on the idiom "make it rain". There is also an episode similarly titled.
- Winn uses the same pun in the episode, claiming there to be a "100% chance of […] Reign" after the planet begins to terraform.
- The Children of Juru arriving on Earth is similar to when Zod, Ursa, and Non land on Earth in the 1981 film Superman II.
- In Superman II, Ursa kills a snake with her heat vision after arriving on Earth and says, "Did you see that? Did you see what I did? I have powers beyond reason here." Similarly, when Selena first uses her heat vision, she says, "We have powers beyond reason here."
- Also, Vita paraphrases Ursa's mocking line in the film about Superman, "He actually cares for these Earth people." Applying it to Supergirl, Vita says, "She actually cares for these humans."
- The personal shield belt Winn creates is reminiscent of the force field belt Brainiac 5 wore in the DC comics.
- When Kara, Mon-El, and Alura arrive on Earth through transmatter portal, Mon-El says "Welcome to Earth." Kara says the same thing to M'yrnn when he, along with Kara and J'onn return to Earth from Mars.
Goofs[]
- The DEO shouldn't have blood samples of all three Worldkillers. Purity couldn't be weakened during her captivity. Lena could have provided Reign's from her experiments.
