KARA: Previously on Supergirl...

I feeI like I'm not
living up to my potential.

I went to work for Cat Grant

because I thought, that would be the way
that I could make a difference.

But, instead, I just fetch the coffee.

MAN ON TV: NationaI City Airlines is
circling the city after an engine failure.

Mayday. Mayday. Mayday. We're going down.

Why do you do this to me?

Because I'm your sister and you love me.

You exposed yourself to the world.

KARA: Ever since I was adopted,

I've felt the need to help people,
and tonight I got that chance.

HANK HENSHAW: Welcome to the DEO,

we protect Earth from
extraterrestriaI invasion.

I'm stilI learning.

But the people of this city wilI die.
You have to let me stop it.

Do you have eyes on the target?

I got him.

SUPERGIRL: I can't do it!

She's not strong enough.

Kara, this is why you were sent here.

I believe that,
you have to believe it too.

KARA: Earth doesn't have
just one hero anymore.

Now it has Supergirl.

When people see that red cape,
they expect to see a certain someone.

Someone they know.

But this isn't his story.

It's mine.

It's been a week
since I revealed myself to NationaI City.

So far, things are going pretty well.

I think I might actually
have a handle on this.

ls that the fastest you can go?

Are these tests mandatory for everyone
or just because I'm a--

It's not because you're a woman,
Ms. Danvers.

The DEO requires rigorous
physicaI and psychologicaI evaluation

for alI our prospective field operatives.

I was gonna say "alien."

A novice superhero
could be a liability in a field.

I need to know
you're in fulI controI of your powers.

Stamina, strength, speed.

My sister just broke
the sound barrier, sir.

HANK HENSHAW: Fire again.

So, did I pass?

I see you share your cousin's appetite
for wanton destruction, Ms. Danvers.

You know, I am starting
to answer to Supergirl.

It's cool, we'lI find our thing.

Is alI of this really necessary?

I'm ready, Alex, for alI of it.

I can do this.

Believe it or not,
he's just looking out for you.

You know, we both are.

I had a fulI year of training
before he even let me in the field.

But I'm really glad
that you're here, though.

(CHUCKLES)

I hated keeping this
whole part of my life from you.

And growing up,
I always thought you were such a bad liar.

That's what a good liar makes you think.

WINN OVER EARPIECE:
Supergirl. Come in, Supergirl.

Winn, what is it?
I'm kind of busy right now.

Kara, there is a huge fire raging
down at the NationaI City port.

It is bad.

AlI right. I'm on my way.

Fire at the port. Gotta go.

Hey, you've been dodging missiles

and pushing your endurance
for the last two hours.

Even you have your limits.

For the last 12 years, I hid who I was.

I don't have to anymore.

And I don't want to waste a minute of it.

Besides, this sounds
like a job for Supergirl.

(SIRENS BLARING)

What can I do, chief?

That ship's holding
almost a million barrels of crude oil.

If the fire reaches it,
it's gonna go off like a two ton bomb.

And the tugboat won't get here in time.

What are you waiting for?
Superman would've blown it out by now.

Right. Okay. Uh, you've got this.

(MEN SHOUTING)

MAN: You're making it worse.

I'm going to try to move it.

(SCREAMING)

NEWSCASTER: Miracle or menace?

That's what the citizens
of NationaI City are asking themselves

after the latest attempt
at heroics by Supergirl

left the bay facing
an ecologicaI disaster.

(ELEVATOR BELI DINGS)

Oh, God, is that smelI you?

Three showers
and I stilI reek of burning oil.

I went from superhero
to ecoterrorist in a single bound.

Hey, hey. You're just, like, a
week into this superhero thing,

you're going to make some mistakes.
(CHUCKLES)

Like, when you first started working here

and Cat asked you
to get her lunch and you went to Chipotle.

Yeah, except now I'm making mistakes
in front of the whole world.

MAXWELL ON TV: Forget about
Supergirl's lack of experience,

I'm talking about the trouble
she'lI bring to NationaI City.

Look at Metropolis.

Since Superman's arrival,

a veritable super bad guy war
has been waged on that city.

Their maintenance budgets have quadrupled.

NationaI City does not need
Metropolis' problems.

- Who cares what that guy says?
- You do.

Isn't MaxwelI Lord your personaI hero?

I own a couple MaxwelI Lord watches

-and his biography.
- Mmm-hmm.

- And his autobiography.
- Yeah.

CAT: Drunk at 9:00 a.m.

That's the last time
I have breakfast with Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

-(ELEVATOR BELI DINGS)
- She's here.

At least now I know how you do that.

(SIGHS)

Here is your latte, Ms. Grant.

- It's hot.
- Just how you like it.

A concern you didn't seem
to share before today.

Content meeting, two minutes, my office.

We're alI aware of Supergirl's
latest debacle, yes?

She made sure no one wilI surf
NationaI City for the next 10,000 years.

Some hero.

CAT: lt was the lead story
on the Daily Planet homepage,

their fifth in as many days.

Which annoys me because the Daily Planet
already has a go-to superhero,

and now they're trying to steaI mine.

Now, when I branded her,
there was an implicit promise

that she would be,
at a minimum, above average.

But in the past week,
she has proved herself to be...

Oh, what is the opposite of super?

#Terriblegirl?

You know, Superman made plenty of
mistakes when he first started.

At least she's saving lives.

In the sloppiest, most awkward
way imaginable, James.

So it is left to us
to take controI of Supergirl's narrative.

Save her from self-immolation,
and scoop the Planet.

I want an interview.

(SNICKERS)

Yes, Kara?

(LAUGHS) Sorry, sorry. I just...

I just started to think about
this kitten video I saw online earlier.

It's so funny what they
make those cats do.

I'lI send it to alI of you.

Or not.

James...

Perhaps your friend in blue
would be usefuI in arranging a sit down?

Maybe you could broach the subject,
the next time you "Bro hang."

(CHUCKLES) It, uh, doesn't really
work that way, Ms. Grant.

Mmm.

Well, let me assure alI of you,
Lois Lane, Clark Kent,

and alI of the hags
over at the Daily Planet

are working day and night
to get this exclusive.

We need to get it first.

I want a sit down with Supergirl.

A girI to girl.

And I want it by, um, the end of the week.

Go, go. Go, go.

Uh, not you, Kara.

Do you really think that I don't know
what's going on with you?

You do?

Well, no. And honestly, I don't care.

But whatever it is,
it's affecting you at the office.

Now you need to join a gym,
uh, see a shrink, whatever,

but get your head out of the clouds
and back behind the desk where it belongs.

Right.

lam not doing that interview. No.

I can’t. I mean, I can’t.

Ms. Grant's not stupid.
She'd recognize me in, like, one second.

She wilI look at Supergirl
right in the face

and she wilI not even see her assistant.

- How can you be so sure?
- Because she doesn't see you now.

I watched it happen for years
with your cousin.

Why don't you think
that people recognize him as Clark Kent?

Reading glasses and a good slouch?

No, he's able to hide

because the world can't believe that
there's really a hero in their midst.

Yeah, and I'm sure there's a good reason

why my cousin keeps his job
at The Daily Planet

instead of flying around
as Superman alI the time,

which would be so much easier.

Yeah well, one, he's able to pay his rent.

She's going to keep
pressuring you about that interview.

Oh, I can handle Cat Grant.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Maybe I put the "S" on too soon.

Kara, look out the window.

TelI me what you see.

Buildings. Billboards.

There's that bar
where that guy cards me alI the time.

He knows how old I am.

I see a city fulI of people who need help.

Who need a hero.

(SIGHS)

You really think so?

If anybody can filI Superman's boots...

It's you.

Thank you, James.

That was a really good pep talk.

Excellent use of pep.

Brilliant. Awesome.

GUARD 1: Look, Superman's the man.
I grant you that.

AlI I'm saying is, I think it's great
NationaI City's got our own superhero.

GUARD 2: Yeah, you said the same thing

when we got our own
professionaI basketbalI team.

You saw how welI that turned out.

Hey, everything okay up here?

Yeah, just finishing things up.

Let me see your ID.

-(GUN COCKS)
- Stand back from the tank.

We have a security breach in Sector 52.

(HISSING)

(SCREAMING)

HANK HENSHAW: What is she doing here?

I called her, sir.
We hunt aliens. She is one.

It's a resource we didn't have before.

- What can I do to help?
- Don't cause any oiI spills.

Take a look around. Don't touch anything.

Alex, this whole facility
specializes in chemicaI manufacturing.

Sodium hypochlorite, ammonium nitrate.

ALEX: Ingredients for a chemicaI bomb?

Yeah. We need to find this alien, fast.

Shouldn't you be sleeping?

I wanted to see you.

I'm sorry I could not be home sooner.

Father made dinner.

Then I am truly sorry.

Zor-EI has many fine qualities.

Sadly, cooking is not among them.

Why were you working so late?

Oh, another criminal
was brought to the Citadel.

What kind?

He is not from Krypton.

His people are called Hellgrammites.

And you stopped him?

The Military Guild arrested him.

It is my job as adjudicator
to get justice for his victims,

and make sure he never hurts
anyone ever again.

I want to help people
just like you some day.

- You will, Kara.
- How do you know?

Because you have the heart of a hero.

- Now get some sleep.
- Okay.

Hellgrammite.

You're looking for a Hellgrammite.

That stinger you pulled out,
I've seen it before on Krypton.

My mother sent one of
their kind to Fort Rozz.

According to the data we salvaged
from the wreckage of Fort Rozz,

there was a Hellgrammite prisoner.

What do we know about his species?

Not much.

It's basically a large insect,

but he can camouflage himself
into any shape he wants.

Humanoid included.

A giant insect trying to steal
bomb-grade chemicaI compounds.

This job never ceases to surprise.

You guys track him down,
and I'lI take him out,

just like we did with Vartox.

Sure thing, Ms. Danvers.

If you can prove to us you can handle
yourself without getting killed.

What are we doing in here?

When I joined the DEO,

I spent 12 hours a day
for five straight months in this room.

We need to know that you're prepared for
everything you might face out there.

Alex, I can bend steeI with my bare hands.

And last week, I kicked Vartox's butt.

I'm ready enough.

- You really think so?
- Yeah. I do.

(GRUNTS)

(PANTING)

How did you do that?

Kryptonite emitters. They're only at 18%.

Not enough to permanently harm you,

but enough to weaken you.

Make this a fair fight.

I just found out last week
that Kryptonite exists.

Only the DEO knows it can hurt me.

You may have powers, Kara,

but so do most of the Fort Rozz aliens.

Not only do they have
the element of surprise,

but they've also had time
to master their abilities.

We may not always know
who our enemies are,

so we need to be prepared to face anyone.

Now, come at me.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

(PANTING)

(GRUNTING)

Your wind up leaves you open
for a counterattack.

(BOTH PANTING)

(YELLS)

You are relying on your
strength without technique.

When you are facing a superior opponent,

you need to use their strength
against them.

(YELLING)

AlI right, alI right, enough.
You made your point.

Well, maybe I'm not
DEO materiaI after all.

I think I know why my cousin
prefers to work alone.

Ms. Danvers...

I hate that you made me do that.

You should be thanking me.

You may have just saved
your sister's life.

Why are you walking like that?

I took your advice to get
my head out of the clouds,

so I took a kickboxing class.
I'm a little sore.

"SupergirI Failure to Launch"?

I don't need you to read it to me.
I wrote it.

Get it to copy for the noon posting.

I don't get it.

Why do you keep criticizing Supergirl
for trying to save the city?

When Superman started...

He, he, he. Him, him, him.

lam so sick of hearing
about the Man of Steel.

Every woman worth her salt knows that
we have to work twice as hard as a man

to be thought of as half as good.

Well, she did rescue that plane.

Yes, which she ditched, bobbing in a bay.

Engineers are working around
the clock trying to remove it.

She saved that tanker from exploding.

Causing an oiI slick,
which they're stilI trying to clean up.

Now, I don't like the fishes,

but it does reassure me to know that
they're stilI under there swimming about.

Well, if SupergirI were here,

what would you suggest she do?

Calm the helI down.

She's taking on
way too much, way too fast.

She's trying to save the day.

By screwing everything up?

No, this inexperienced idiot
has barely had a run in her tights,

and yet there she is
at the epicenter of danger.

What's next?

"I think I'lI catch the meteor that's
headed straight for the White House?"

Oh!

Whoops)'-

No, no, no. There is a learning curve.

You don't just walk through the front door
and suddenly own the company.

I started out as Perry White's assistant.

I worked my ass off

untiI one day I finally had the chance
to write an article for the gossip column.

Every step of the way, I had to fight,

to work hard, to get better,
to come out ahead.

No, catching planes and boats on fire...
Hmm.

How about we start small
and work our way up?

SupergirI should take
a page out of your book, Kara.

(CHUCKLES)

Uh, this fish isn't local, is it?

No, of course not.

Meet me in the alley in five minutes.

Thank God you didn't say the roof.

Hey, what's up?

- Nothing, nothing.
-(CLEARS THROAT)

I like to come out here to smoke.

Which I like to do in private.

Actually, I'm meeting someone
right now so...

Yeah, you can meet them
inside the building. Yeah?

- No, my friend likes to make an entrance.
- Oh.

(LOUD WHOOSHING)

- He knows.
- He knows?

You told him?

James already knew. And Winn's my friend.

Yeah.

If I'm going to be a hero,

and prove to everyone
that I know what I'm doing,

I'm gonna need to practice.

Start small, get better.

And to do that, I'm gonna need your help.

-I'm in.
-I'm in.

I said it first.

(CLEARS THROAT)

(CHUCKLES)

(ELECTRICITY SURGING)

I don't want any trouble.

Then you should've stayed hidden,

under your rock
with the rest of the insects.

I have to eat.

GeneraI Astra promised she would take care
of alI your needs on this world.

Her only request was your loyalty.

TelI her I prefer to go it alone.

TelI her yourself.

I don't want any part
of whatever you're planning.

Like I told you alI when we first
crashed here and escaped Fort Rozz,

we are stronger together.

There is a Kryptonian
working with the humans.

My niece, in fact.

She calls herself Supergirl.

You wilI make excellent bait
to help me capture her.

I've seen what happens to people when
they take on someone wearing that

This is not an invitation, it's a command.

Okay, boys, what have you got for me?

Armed robbery at a pizza place
on 5th and Siegel.

JAMES: Remember, bulletproof means
bullets bounce off of you.

So, if you don't want anyone to get hurt,

don't let the bad guys
even get a shot off.

Oh, yeah, and also try not to
damage the suit.

I, uh, helped make that outfit.

- I got some mad sewing skills.
- Mmm-hmm.

- Get down!
-(PEOPLE SCREAMING)

Now give me your money.

- Come on, let's go, let's go.
-(GUN COCKS)

SUPERGIRL: Next?

Ambulance caught in traffic
on Donner Avenue

carrying a heart attack victim.

They're not gonna make it to
NationaI City GeneraI in time.

Oh, and a fully-loaded ambulance
is about 9,200 pounds,

which would mean that you'd need to use a
maximum of 44,498 newtons of force...

Kara, what he means is, gently this time.

(SIREN WAILING)

FEMALE NEWSCASTER: SupergirI rescued
an ambulance stuck in traffic,

saving the life of a man inside.

MALE NEWSCASTER:
Another super save for Supergirl.

Looks like NationaI City's
hero is starting to live up to her name.

Oh! This one's the fire department.

Ha! Kara, you're gonna love this one,
it's a classic.

Kitten up a tree.

Fluffy!

Here you go.

(CLEARS THROAT)
I thought you said it was a cat.

Who names her snake Fluffy?

NEWSCASTER: A dazzling display
of heroics by the GirI of Steel

now has a gratefuI NationaI City asking,
"What oiI spill?"

- Watch out, Metropolis.
-(CHUCKLING)

Looks like we're about to give you
a run for your superhero money!

I can't believe it. It's working.

People are really
starting to believe in her.

In you.

I couldn't have done it without you.

Thank you.

Both of you.

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

God, what, did you order more pizza?
You're a beast.

- Kara? Kara, the cape.
- Your cape...

Can we talk?

Do you really think it was a good idea
for you to telI your friends who you are?

Yes, because they're my friends.

I'm allowed to have friends, aren't I?

Or is that also against DEO rules?

I didn't come here to fight,

I came here to apologize.

For how I handled things back at the DEO.

Maybe it wasn't the right way
to go about it,

but you have got to understand,

I was only looking out for you.

You always have looked out for me,

since the day my cousin
dropped me off at your house.

Do you remember how scared
you were of the popcorn maker?

(LAUGHS) Yeah.

You crawled under the table next to me.

Showed me the melted butter

and sprinkled the tiny, white crystals...

But I'm not a scared little girI anymore.

Yeah, but I wilI always be
your big sister.

That doesn't just suddenly change

because last week you decided
to fight criminals.

Well, last week I found out
you don't work in a lab.

You're out there fighting,
risking your life,

and I stilI trust you.

I know I have a lot to learn.

And James and Winn believe in me, but...

I need your faith, Alex.

More than that more than that cape...

More than anyone's.

(CELI PHONE RINGING)

Danvers.

- I'lI be right there.
-(PHONE BEEPS)

They need me back at the DEO.

I'lI calI you.

What's the news on the Hellgrammite?

We've confirmed six similar attacks
on chemicaI plants across the country

over the past year.

He's been making his way to NationaI City

with enough chemicaI components
to build a weapon of mass destruction.

I'm not so sure about that, sir.

The tests we ran on his blood indicate his
alien DNA isn't carbon-based like humans.

It has a chlorine foundation.

Each of those facilities
stored confiscated DDT,

which is a chlorine pesticide.

Well, if he's not building a weapon,
what does he need DDT for?

- He's eating it.
- Right.

Given his home planet's
atmospheric conditions,

DDT would be the closest thing on Earth
he could find to food.

Since DDT was banned,

the government
has been destroying remaining stockpiles.

His food source is shrinking.

Well, if this thing is hungry,

let's buy him some dinner.

FEMALE NEWSCASTER:
Eat your heart out, Metropolis,

it looks like SupergirI is here to stay.

Ms. Grant, you wanted to see me?

James, I was wondering how the hunt
for the interview with SupergirI is going.

Oh, she's doing a little better,

so I wasn't sure if you were still
interested in controlling the story.

Oh, I want a sit down with her
before the Planet.

Maybe I was beating
around the bush too much earlier.

No, you were pretty clear.

The "S" is not some
"Who wore it best" fashion faux pas.

It's a team logo.

Maybe SupergirI is his sister,
maybe it's his girlfriend,

but there's definitely a connection.

And because you are famously "his pal,"

I have to wonder

why you haven't exploited that
relationship to get me what I want.

I have a policy against using my
friends for business reasons.

And I have a policy against losing.

Whose policy do you think
means more to me?

No, I get it. You're an honorable guy.

So I'm asking you to do
what's right by me and this company

and get me in a room with that girl.

You have 24 hours.

Or?

Or the Planet gets their
beloved photojournalist back.

DISPATCHER: Greyhound, this is Trap One,
no sign of the hostile.

Copy, Trap One. Stay alert.

Let's hope this movable feast
is too hard to resist.

Given the Hellgrammite's
superior sense of smell,

he should've sensed the DDT
in the atmosphere by now.

Then where the helI is he?

Trap One, the target is on your vehicle!

(SCREAMS)

(STINGERS SHOOTING)

(SCREAMING IN PAIN)

(HISSING)

HANK HENSHAW: Alex!

ASTRA: Where is the Kryptonian?

She didn't show.

But this is one of the human agents.

I'm hoping it's enough
to keep you off my back.

I've been waiting quite some time
to get one of you alive.

(CLEARS THROAT) Hey.

Uh, Winn and I are gonna
head back to my place,

listen to the scanner
and do a little super hero-ing

if you wanna come?

I think I'm gonna take tonight off
if you don't mind.

Just got some things I should think about.

Look, I know I said I wouldn’t
do the interview, but I'lI do it.

I don't want you getting fired.

(CHUCKLES)

I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

(INHALES DEEPLY)

You know, it's been like this for a while.

Back when I first started,
I was this nervous kid with his camera,

just trying to get noticed.

And then one day, everybody knew my name.

And not because of anything I did.

Not really.

It's because I was friends with somebody

who was making a difference.

I don't know, I just...

I thought I could escape
alI that when I moved here.

Be my own man, you know. (CHUCKLES)

Back on Krypton, no one was their own man.

Growing up, I was taught that

to accept help from people
is not a shame, it's an honor.

Your cousin never talks about Krypton.

He was a baby when we left.

But I remember it.

AlI the time.

Did he ever telI you what that "S" means?

The House of El.

Yes, but, it also stands
for a Kryptonian phrase, our family motto.

"EI mayarah."

It means, "Stronger together."

You say people wilI see me
the way they see Superman one day, but...

I don't want to be a hero like him.

My cousin, he's so used to going it alone,

he doesn't know any other way. But I do.

I see it now.

You, Winn, my sister, Ms. Grant even,

you've alI showed me that.

James, part of being your own man
is knowing when to accept help.

- You really want to do that interview?
-(CHUCKLES)

First, I was scared, but I'm not anymore.

I want to do it.

For me?

For what we're trying to do here together.

For us.

(CELI PHONE RINGING)

Sorry.

Hello.

It's Henshaw. There's been an incident.

Your sister's been abducted.

I should've been there.

If I was there...

lf you trusted me instead of
putting me through your tests,

I could've stopped this.

Or maybe you'd be captured and dead too.

I know, to you, she's just an agent,

but to me, she's my family.

Does that mean anything to you?

Do you have a family?

I did.

Look, we have every satellite
and tacticaI drone up in the air,

searching this whole city for her.

And now you have me too.

ASTRA: You're bleeding.

Human beings are so fragile.

It's amazing any of you
make it out of infancy.

Alura...

How do you know that name?

I saw a hologram of you.

A message from Krypton.

It was in the ship
that brought your daughter to Earth.

Twins were rare on Krypton.

When we were children, Alura and I took
great pleasure in confusing our parents.

You're Alura's sister.

I am GeneraI Astra.

And what is your name?

You are very brave.

Braver than most of your race.

There is no reason to kilI me,
or anyone in NationaI City.

Is that what you think?

That my goaI is simply to kilI humans?

You are so very wrong.

lam here to save you all.

SupergirI wilI find me.

Alex.

Director Henshaw, I got her.

A warehouse at the corner
of 78th and Washington.

I'm going to get her back.

- Ms. Danvers, wait.
-(STATIC)

Get a strike team ready. We're moving out.

MAN: Yes, sir.

Alex.

No! Get out of here, it's a trap.

(GRUNTS)

It's been a long time, little one.

Look how you've grown.

So beautiful.

But you...

You died.

When Krypton exploded...

Everyone died.

You died...

Aunt Astra.

Except I wasn't on Krypton
when it perished.

I was a prisoner aboard Fort Rozz.

Did your mother not telI you?

How she sent me away?

Banished her own blood?

Imprisoned me for speaking the truth
while she told only lies?

But why did she send you to Fort Rozz?

For being a hero.

For trying to save our world.

I remember so many nights,
sitting on your lap,

listening as you taught me
alI the names of the stars.

Then let me educate you
once again, dear niece.

Your alliance with the humans
is misplaced.

Do not stand against me.

I let one planet die,
I wilI not do so again.

Funny, I was going to say the same thing.

(GRUNTING)

Greyhound, this is Trap Leader, over.

Greyhound, do you copy?

Maybe I was wrong about you.

Join me, little one.

Never calI rne that again.

(BREATH ES HEAVILY)

It's nothing personal.

Just every species has a wilI to survive.

Know what most species also have?

-(GRUNTS)
-Those.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

You chose for it to end like this,
instead of allying with your family.

Now you can die alone.

You might wanna rethink the cape.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

ALEX: When you are facing
a superior opponent,

you use their strength against them.

(PANTING)

Hey!

Are you okay?

I saw on the news you haven't
quite mastered that one yet.

- HANK HENSHAW: Stop. Stay where you are.
-(LAUGHS)

(HANK HENSHAW GRUNTS)

You possess no weapon that can hurt me.

You are so wrong.

(SCREAMING)

Any more family I should know about?

Okay.

(EXHALES) I wish I had
your healing powers.

You took down that Hellgrammite
with no help from me.

Yeah, well, you were a little busy.

I can't even imagine
what you must be feeling right now.

I mean, after alI this time,

finding out you stilI have family.

You're my family.

My aunt...

We have to stop her.

I have to be ready for her next time.

Show me how to fight.

Train me to be as good as you.

I'lI make you even better.

On Krypton, I remember
Aunt Astra and my mother always arguing.

Like sisters do.

And when I asked my mother
why they could never get along, she said

that it was because Astra
didn't have faith in people.

You wanted to know if I have faith in you.

I do. I always have.

When you first came to live with us,

my parents told me
that you would be sad and fragile,

having just lost your world,

your parents, friends.

But you never let that loss
diminish your light.

You've always had
the heart of a hero, Kara,

way before you put on that

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

What are you doing? You need to rest.

There's something that I need to show you.

Something I've been working on.

Your cousin has a base,

it's a fortress, I guess, in the Arctic.

Now, we don't know much about it,

but we do know that it's a place
that he's been able to commune

with his Kryptonian ancestors.

How? They're alI gone.

They're no longer alive, yes.

The door wilI only open for you.

Mom.

Hello, Kara.

Wait. I don't understand.

The message we found in your pod,

it was part of an interactive
artificiaI intelligence program,

that's culled from living memory.

It's not really her, but...

Kara, I have been programmed
to offer you assistance here on Earth.

Thank you, Alex.

I'lI let you two talk.

I'm not quite sure what to ask.

Whatever it is you wish
you could ask Alura, you may ask me.

I'd ask for a hug.

I am not programmed to do that.

(SNIFFLES)

Then telI me about my Aunt Astra.

Director Henshaw,
thank you for helping me set up that room.

It's the least I could do for Supergirl.

I won't telI her you called her that.

I'd appreciate it.

(ASTRA GROANING)

(SCREAMS)

Kryptonians are nearly
indestructible on Earth.

How could that blade hurt me?

Unclear. I've never seen anything like it.

It's definitely not from this planet.

It seems to be emitting
a specific radioactivity

that's damaging
to your cellular structure.

It's stilI making me sick.

Get it away from me.

Get it out of here.

MAN: The humans are more canny
than we predicted.

UntiI we learn to neutralize
this weapon they possess,

we might have to rethink
our timetable for taking NationaI City.

MAN: And what of Kara Zor El?

My niece, she is stronger than I thought.

She's not just a little girl
from Krypton anymore.

(EXHALES) Mr. Olsen,
I know that I gave you 24 hours

to get me that interview with Supergirl,

but if you haven't procured it by now,

I would like to set up some interviews
with new art directors for tomorrow.

-(THUD)
- Eyes on the road up there.

Actually, Ms. Grant, your interview
with Supergirl's already started.

Look out your window.

What the hell?

(THUD)

SUPERGIRL: MS. Grant.

James Olsen said you wanna talk.

Let's talk.
