When I was a child, my
planet Krypton was dying.

I was sent to Earth
to protect my cousin.

But my pod got knocked off-course

and by the time I got here,

my cousin had already grown
up and become Superman.

I hid who I really was

until one day when an accident forced
me to reveal myself to the world.

To most people, I'm a reporter
at CatCo Worldwide Media.

But in secret, I work with my
adoptive sister for the DEO

to protect my city from alien life

and anyone else that
means to cause it harm.

I am Supergirl.

Previously on Supergirl...

My whole life, I've been a sidekick.

Watching my dad's camera be
destroyed reminded me of something.

He gave his life
protecting this country.

And if I do this, I can honor him.

Mother?

Father?

My son.

To new friends!

The portal would help
your planet immensely

and it would help me get home to mine.

Ready to change the world?

You have no idea.

What's the hurry?

No!

Are you okay?

Stay back!

I'm here to help.

Don't hurt me!

James?

Police are on their way, buddy.

You good?

James?

Let's call it a night.

- sync and corrections by Mr. C -
- www.addic7ed.com -

Okay. I mean, I love him. I do.

I... I love him. But come on.

JT has got to be the only one

holding up the reunion right now.

Oh, obviously.

Here, but let me ask you this, right?

Would you rather have an NSync reunion

or JT and Britney back together?

Ugh! My OTP.

That's an impossible question to answer,

and you are cruel for asking.

Yeah. Well, you know, sometimes my
Luthor genes just shine through.

Thanks for catching lunch with me.

Yeah. Well, since I canceled
on you the last three times

and you said you couldn't get away,

I figured you were worth
the extra effort.

Yeah, what's keeping you so busy?

It's top secret.

Intriguing.

As soon as I can tell anyone
anything, you will get an exclusive.

I'm working with a new partner.

- Mmm.
- Yeah, she's...

She's fantastic.

It's... It's like having
a mentor, you know?

You'll... You'll love her. Promise.

You got to give me something.

I have to have something
to look forward to.

Okay. Something to look forward to.

What do you know about
quantum entanglement?

- "Quantum" wh...
- Polyatomic anions?

Well, when you see what
we're doing with them,

- it will blow you away.
- I can't wait.

Oh.

Actually, this is... This is her.

I'm gonna have to go, 'cause we're
doing our first test today.

Oh, it was so good to see you.

- Next time, lunch is on me.
- Okay. Cool.

Bye.

Hmm.

Thanks, brother.

Hey, hey! Look who it is.

You know what? I love these falafels.
Do you?

Because they are, like, the
best in the city. I gotta say.

Yeah, they are the best in the city.

You know that because I told
you about this falafel stand.

Oh, yes. Yes, you did.

And I'm totally stalking you

because, dude, what happened?

Last night you were just...

You were just, like, one and done.
That's not like you.

In all honestly, that
woman was more afraid

of Guardian than she
was of her attackers.

That can't be true.

No, dude, you didn't see her.

I'm sure she was in shock.

Yeah, but it's... It's bigger than that.

It's... It's happening a lot.

So, people see this big
guy in this scary mask

and they freak out, they run away.

- Just like Clark's friend.
- Oh, you mean...

I feel like they're more frenemies.

You know what I mean.

It's just that Guardian is not...

He's not this beacon of hope
that I thought he would be.

I mean, basically, all I'm
doing is beating people up.

Whoa, dude, we are...

We are doing a lot of good here.

We... We're making a difference.

I mean, Supergirl, Superman,
they're making a difference.

They're changing hearts and minds.

They inspire people.

Guardian inspires fear.

Ma'am?

Oh, is that an earthquake?

Ma'am, stop what you're doing.

Everybody get out of here!

Go! Go, go, go, go!

Get out of here! Get out of here! Go!

This is Agent Schott. We have a hostile
telekinetic in Simmons Square.

Let's go! Get out of here!

Watch out!

Move! Move, move, move! Move!

Hey, where'd the alien go?

She's gone.

I don't know.

Authorities
are investigating

a targeted alien terrorist attack

that occurred earlier today.

Law enforcement has no
leads on the identity

of the alien or motive,

but tensions are on the rise

as fear of another attack...

If the news keeps stirring up fear,

there's gonna be a witch hunt
for whoever this alien is.

Things could get out of hand very fast.

Okay. So, we figured out
what kind of alien she is.

- She's a Phorian.
- A what?

I never realized any had
taken refuge here on Earth.

Historically, they're a
peaceful race of aliens.

Today, not so peaceful.

Thank God Supergirl was there.
Hundreds could've been hurt.

Normally, their telekinetic
powers are benign.

I've never heard of a Phorian
doing so much damage.

And they're also
telepathic like Martians.

They are connected
through their thoughts.

Do you think more of them will attack?

For now, let's just treat this
as a lone-wolf situation.

So, how do we find her?

Supergirl and Mon-El are
out surveying the city

to see if they can
come up with anything.

I'd be happy to help. I can get out
there and see if there's any leads.

Mr. Olsen, you've been very helpful.

This is a DEO matter.

We'll let you know if we
need Guardian's skill set,

- but for now...
- I got it.

Today was just our first test.

You can't expect it to be
perfect on the first attempt.

I quadruple checked my
calculations on this, okay?

The reaction of the polyatomic anions

was supposed to be strong enough to
spark the core of the generator.

Neither of us has gotten to where
we are without persistence.

If I can't make this work,
we won't be able to power

the portal that we're building.

This was supposed to revolutionize
the way everything was transported,

eliminate famine, the
need for fossil fuels.

I wanted to help my planet.

And get you home to yours.

And you will.

You're making advancements in science

that most people on Earth
could not even dream of.

No one said it would be easy.

What if I can't make it work?

What if I can't get you home?

I have confidence in you, Lena.

I am going to the test facility

to check the progress of the portal.

I know you don't believe it yet,

but you're going to make this work.

Wh... Dude!

That'll be 20.

Where do you people come from?

Please, don't shoot me.

Come on, it's just a little bag of weed.

It's for my anxiety.

I was kidnapped recently
and I'm very, very tense.

Wait! You know the attack
on Simmons Square?

Yeah. What about it?

That woman.

The one with all the crazy powers?

Everyone's looking for her, right?

I know where she lives.

Wait!

It's okay.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

It's all right, see?

I'm not gonna hurt you.

We've been in here a long time.

You must be hungry.

Mmm. This

is a really good burger.

Okay.

I know you don't wanna be here with me.

I'm just trying to help you, Marcus.

I'm trying to help you and your mom.

I promise you that.

But the authorities are after her

because she did a bad thing.

And if you help us find her,
then we can protect her

from doing something
bad to somebody else.

So do you have any idea
where she could be?

Maybe she should give him,
like, some action figures.

Right?

Like, if somebody had
given me action figures

when they interrogated me
about my dad when I was 10,

like, I would...

I would've sung like a canary.
I'm just saying.

This kid is completely shut down.

And pulling him into
an interrogation room

like some criminal off the street,

I don't think is the best
way to get him to open up.

So, you're not only a masked vigilante

and a photographer, you're
also a child psychologist now.

I'm just saying this kid's
life has been upended badly.

Okay, first, he's a refugee.

Then his mom ends up missing.

And if he's turned on the
TV at all since yesterday,

all he's seen are adults
yelling about her,

calling for blood.

I wouldn't trust anybody
either, if I was this kid.

James is right.

I've been in there for hours,

and all he does is just
stare at the camera.

He's looking at you.

At... At me?

Through a wall, Alex?

He's an alien with telekinetic
and telepathic powers.

Hey, look at that. It's like the...

The... The Mona Lisa.

You said that he connected with you.

He thought the Guardian was a monster,

and then I took my helmet off,

and I guess he saw someone
who looked like him.

He identified with you, James.

Are you saying you want Mr.
Olsen to question the boy?

Well, Marcus doesn't trust me.

Okay? But he could trust James.

I mean, out of here.

In a more conducive environment.

We have to find his mother
before she attacks again.

If I can help this kid, I'd like to.

All right.

Take the day, see if you can find
out where the boy's mother is.

We'll check in with you later.

Hey... You'll be good with him.

- Hey, buddy.
- Hey!

Uh...

Hey, scanning is a thing you, like...
You do here, right?

Yes.

Yes. Here at the DEO, we
scan for many things.

Mmm-hmm. So, you could, like...

You could, like, press a button

and it would scan the Earth's orbit
for, like, my parents' ship.

I certainly could, but
I already did that

when they led us back to Earth.

I tracked their progress
as they went out

of Earth's atmosphere and
flew away to Daxam. Bye-bye.

Can you show me how you did that?

Yeah.

See? Look. It's a bunch of satellites.

- The skies are clear.
- Yeah. Good.

That's... That's what I thought.

It's good.

Still isn't working?

Was it me throwing it down in disgust

or the sparks that gave it away?

Can you give us a minute?

Failure is a part of the process, Lena.

I told you this was going to take time.

It's not about time. I'm
just not getting it.

You know, maybe we should pay
a visit to Stryker Island.

Get Lex Luthor to come
in and save the day.

You think he could get this working?

Lex was the genius who was
supposed to save the world.

You know, I...

I just thought if I
could make this work,

I would prove to the
world and to my mother

that I was as good as the golden boy.

I think most of all, I just
wanted to prove it to myself.

You don't have to prove anything.

You're smarter than Lex.

No. I'm not saying that
to make you feel better.

I'm saying it as a scientist.

As someone who knows.

But you need to stop trying
to think like your brother.

From what you've told me about Lex,

he's a man who's concerned with power.

And that's how you've
been trying to fix this.

Give it more power, you
think it will work.

Yeah, but it just keeps blowing.

But you're not a person
who's consumed with power.

Are you?

So, if you weren't trying
to do what Lex would do,

what would you do?

I'd try to find a way to
increase the anion input

without overloading the energy output.

All while maintaining the element
synthesis rate at a constant.

Not power.

Balance.

All right, just sit right there, buddy.

- James.
- Hey!

Marcus, this is my friend Kara.

She's a reporter here at CatCo.

Hi, Marcus. How are you doing?

- How are you doing?
- I'm good.

This is... This is good.

Good.

Bye, Marcus.

Eve, would you mind
clearing my afternoon?

Absolutely, Mr. Olsen.

And who do we have here?

We have here...

We have here... My... My nephew.

Marcus.

Marcus.

Is there anything I could
get for you or your nephew?

Yeah. You know what? Um, actually...

A couple of milkshakes
and some curly fries

from Noonan's would be great.

- Sure thing.
- Thank you.

You're gonna love the curly fries.

Have you ever had curly fries?

You're... You're gonna love them.

This way.

Have you ever seen one of those before?

Take these two knobs and you try to get

this metal ball from
one side to the other.

Argh!

You wanna try?

Okay.

Well, I guess that's
one way of doing it.

That's the same model
that Spider Martin used

to document the Civil Rights Movement.

You know what the Civil
Rights Movement is?

Never mind.

Anyway, I...

I bought this with my first paycheck
I got from selling a photo.

Here.

Oh. Here, try that.

Cool, right?

That one? Yeah, I've, uh...

I've had this one forever.

My dad got it for me.

It's the one that inspired me to be
a photographer in the first place.

He gave it to me right
before he passed away.

He was a soldier.

My father was a soldier, too.

Marcus, where is your father?

He died when we were
escaping our planet.

I'm really sorry to hear that.

I know how that can be.

It can be beyond hard.

Hey!

- Did we have a date?
- No, no, no, no.

No, I just thought I'd surprise you.

We've got egg rolls and pot stickers,

- shumai.
- Oh!

It's a veritable poo poo platter.

- Whoo-hoo!
- I love saying that.

"Poo poo platter." Sorry.

Did you rip the seat off the
toilet in my loft again

and now you're just bringing Chinese
food so you don't get in trouble?

That was once.

- That was one time.
- Mmm-hmm.

And in my defense, you
can be pretty scary

when it comes to enforcing
bathroom etiquette.

No. I, um...

I thought I saw
my mother last night.

I didn't. Don't worry.

I went and checked,

and my parents' ship definitely had
left for Daxam a few weeks ago.

But thinking I saw her, it...

I thought it would make me feel anger.

But I felt, um...

Other... Other stuff...

I just... I hate... I hate
that I still care about her.

Hey, we can't will ourselves
to not feel anything.

Life doesn't work like that.

On Daxam, that's exactly what we'd do.

We'd drug ourselves, so we
literally didn't feel anything.

You're allowed to miss her.
She is your mother.

Well, she's gone forever.

So...

If my mother had given
me pep talks like you,

imagine the things I could've done.

I'm happy to have mused you.

But trust me, it isn't always easy

being the parent we aspire to be.

Shall we test it again?

Let me just plug in the
algorithm and fire it up.

All right, so what you wanna do is

twist that and lock it in.

There you go. You're a natural.

Can I take a picture of you?

Of course.

My mother would never
hurt anybody on purpose.

Do you know where she is?

Hey, hey!

Hey, um... Marcus, give me one second.

Here goes nothin'.

You didn't say what
flavor for your nephew.

So, I got chocolate and vanilla.

- I'm sure it'll be fine.
- Okay.

What is your nephew doing?

Marcus.

Marcus!

James!

Someone help!

Power is running
smoothly to the core.

Anions are reacting at a steady rate.

Go!

Come on! Go, go, go! Go!
Get out of here!

Come on, go! Go!

The building is coming down!

How do we stop him?

It's working.

We did it.

You did it.

Oh, it's okay, I've got you.

I've got you.

You're gonna be okay.

He wasn't in control of himself.

It was like something
was in control of him.

Do you think the same thing
happened to his mother, too?

Maybe she's not the perpetrator
we thought, but the victim.

Just like Marcus.

Either way, we'll need
to keep him in that cell for now.

It's equipped with a
telekinetic dampener,

which should prevent him
from having another episode.

Well, he's safe, but his
mother's still out there.

We need to get him to
tell us where she is.

Well, our best chance at
that now is Mr. Olsen.

James.

I spent the entire day with that kid

and all I got was a couple of sentences.

You were right, J'onn.

This is a DEO matter.

I should not have involved myself.

James.

Look, I know what I said earlier on,

but we could really use your help here.

It has to be you.

Why? Because I'm black?

You look the same as he does too.

- Why don't you talk to him?
- It's more than that.

He sees something in you.

I brought him to CatCo and I
risked everybody's safety.

Supergirl had to come save everybody.

Me, him...

She kept everybody safe and
I had no idea what to do.

You know, I remember that feeling.

On Mars, we were encouraged to decide our
line of work when we were very young.

Everyone had no problem
pinpointing their futures.

I didn't know what I wanted to do.

I was just waiting for a sign.

Did you find one?

My first daughter.

When she came along, I finally
realized I had a mission in life.

I had someone who relied on me.

Having her gave me direction.

Protecting her made me realize

I had a gift for keeping people safe.

So I, um... I joined the
law enforcement on Mars.

I became the Martian Manhunter.

And you think me talking to Marcus

would give me that kind of purpose?

I saw a reflection of
myself in my daughter.

I think you already see a
reflection of yourself in him.

You want to find out what
kind of hero you can be?

Right here is a great place to start.

We've been searching the city for
signs of another attack, nothing yet.

Have you two found anything?

We looked into the Phorian's physiology.

Turns out that a major shift
in atmospheric energy

can cause a change in
their mental state.

But what causes a shift like that?

Okay. So, this measures electromagnetic
activity around the city.

There was a large spike around the time of
the first fight on the street yesterday.

And let me guess, another spike
during the attack on CatCo today?

Hey, good guess.

But that spike was about
five times the size.

Have we determined
what caused the spike?

Yes. High levels of
polyatomic anions released

in the atmosphere.

Wait. I... I saw Lena.

She said she's working on a new project.

She mentioned those anions.

That can't be a coincidence, can it?

Definitely not.

I'm gonna call Lena.

Hello, Supergirl.

Rhea?

You sound surprised.

- Trace the call.
- If you've done anything to Lena...

You'll what, lecture me?

We will find you.

You have no idea where I
am or what I'm doing.

How does it feel to be powerless?

If this is about Mon-El,
you have to come to terms

with the fact that he
chose to stay here.

No, he made a choice to come home,

to be king to his people.

And we would have been happy to go,

but you were too selfish to allow that.

What's she saying?

- Everything
I do, I do for my people.

Everything you do for yours

is to bolster your broken ego.

You need this planet to worship you,

the last daughter of a failed world,

because otherwise, your
survival means nothing.

You're delusional.

No.

On the contrary, I see
everything clearly.

I came here in peace, which you refused.

And all of the ugliness
that's transpired

is because of your
righteousness, Kara Zor-El.

Everything that happens
from now on is your doing.

Every city that burns,
every nation that falls,

for every child of Earth that cries out,

"Why is this happening?"

The answer is Supergirl.

Kara has done nothing. Okay?

This is all you!

Oh, of course you're there with her.

The Kryptonian girl who bewitched you.

Mother, you're... You're
mad at me here, okay?

Don't... Don't take it
out on this planet.

You are better than this.

Anger has nothing to do
with what I'm doing.

Then why? Why are you still here?

I'm here to wake you up, Mon-El.

Did you manage to trace the call?

No. There was too much
electromagnetic interference.

- Was that my phone?
- Yeah.

Telemarketer.

Hey, Marcus.

Look, I know that you didn't mean

to attack everybody the
way that you did before.

Okay?

And neither did your mom.

Look, all I'm trying to do is make sure

that everybody who saw
her picture on the news

knows that's not the real her, right?

Every planet we go to,
they make us go away.

What do you mean?

They always try to hurt us.

They think we're bad.

I thought it would be different here.

I liked it here.

When I was a kid, I used to get bullied.

See, I went to a school where there weren't
a lot of people who looked like me.

And then when my dad died,
it just got a lot worse.

See, he was... He was my guardian.

He was the guy that made me feel safe.

So, after he was gone, I just...

I put up this wall.

And I didn't let anybody in.

Until I moved to Metropolis,

and then I made a new friend.

And this guy was different, too.

And I didn't realize
how different he was.

I just knew that he understood
something that most people didn't.

And because of that, I trusted him.

And eventually, I let him in.

Do you know what happened?

That wall came down.

You see, Marcus, sometimes
you can meet somebody

and they can become your friend.

And by trusting them,

everything in your life can change.

I can see her.

My mom.

Can you?

But I don't know where she is.

It's somewhere I've never seen before.

Can you take me to her?

You'll protect her?

I will protect you both.

I promise.

Okay, we're now monitoring all
electromagnetic activity within the region.

If anyone powers up this device,

we're gonna know exactly where they are.

Good. Then we can strike.

Marcus knows where his mom is,
but he's gotta take us to her.

I'm afraid I can't let him out of here.

Mon-El's mother created some
sort of device with Lena Luthor.

She could set it off at any moment.

It's just not safe for Marcus
outside of containment.

But his mom is still out there.

I could... I could go with them.

I have a mobile version of
that telekinetic dampener.

It should have plenty of juice

to keep Marcus and his mom
from going all Carrie.

I'm sorry, guys. It's too risky.

J'onn, you said that you found
your mission with your daughter.

This is mine.

Be safe, James.

Thank you.

Let's go.

Marcus, be careful.

Mom?

Marcus?

Mom!

- Marcus.
- Mom.

No, no, Mom. These are my friends.

They helped me find you.

Thank you.

Look, we know that you did not
attack the square on purpose.

- It's okay. You're safe now.
- How?

This bad boy is gonna protect you.

- All of us?
- All of...

Tomorrow we could begin
the material trials.

I keep forgetting that success
means that you're leaving.

Working with you has
meant so much to me.

Me too.

Whatever happens next,

I want you to remember never
to doubt yourself again.

You are a marvel, Lena.

Any mother should be proud
to call you daughter.

Wait. Wait... What are you...
What are you doing?

We got something! A
huge release of anions.

- Where?
- San Isidro Valley.

You got a satellite image for that?

What is that?

- Let's go.
- Right on.

My mother...

I know this is going to be hard.

- You don't have to do this.
- No, I have to.

I just... I need to
grab something first.

Marcus?

I don't think it's working, Winn.

Argh!

There's too many of them.

This isn't working.

What's wrong with it?

It's made for two, not 12!

We gotta get out of here.

This much telekinetic energy
between these Phorians...

The entire city is in danger.

I am not leaving him.

Well, what do you wanna do?

Well, they're linked
telepathically, right?

Yeah.

So, if I break through to him, maybe
he can break through to them.

Okay, go.

Why won't it shut down?

- What did you do?
- What I had to do.

For my people.

I want you to know the affection
I have for you is real.

Turn it off!

I can't.

Why won't it turn off?

I don't know, she must've made
it self-sustaining somehow.

What did you do, Mother?

Marcus.

I need you to look at me.

I told you I would keep
you and your mother safe

and I am not breaking that promise.

You're bringing something here.

What?

You'll see.

Argh!

Marcus, I need you to hear me.

I need you to let me in like you
would let a real friend in.

James, it's not working.

We have to get out of here.

I'm not leaving them!

You don't mess with my family.

What is that?

A White Martian gave me this.

What are you doing?

The White Martians
developed this technology

in order to keep the Greens

under their control.

It traps a Martian in his own mind.

A never-ending nightmare.

Pretty savvy if you ask me.

J'onn!

J'onn!

You've learned a lot of things

about this world, Mother.

I've had to.

And did you learn that we're
not bulletproof here?

Whoa.

James!

You just have to look inside of yourself

and see the strength and the
courage that I see in you.

You're not alone.

You are not alone!

Hey.

That is a hero without a suit.

Put the gun down, Mon-El.

You don't want to hurt me...

Shut up!

The Kryptonian girl was right.

You are a hero of Earth.

But would a hero kill his own mother?

When you were a boy and I would
put you to sleep at night,

you used to say to me

that you would always love me.

And even though you've
turned your back on me,

I know you love me.

Where's Father?

Where is my father?

Your father was so hurt

when you abandoned us that he

took his own life.

No.

Mon-El, you are not going to kill me.

Whatever you think of me,

I'm still your mother.

We were not the only people to escape
the destruction of our planet.

Thousands of Daxamites survived.

Hundreds of ships spread
across the galaxy.

They just needed a way to get here.

- Agent Danvers...
- Yeah.

We have multiple bogies
heading into National City.

- How many?
- Twenty-five,

No, 50, 100... Maybe more.
