Still, the Lena storyline was fascinating, so lets start there this week.

Our favorite Luthor is commencing her Harun-El trials with Subject 0331, whose name shed rather not know.

His brother died on the operating table while donating a kidney to 0331, who now carries that guilt.

Ergo, 0331s the best subject to be imbued with superhuman powers.

And shes a bad person for not calling for help when her biological mother drowned when Lena was four.

Instead, theyre caught, and the Children threaten to kill Tom if James doesnt blow up the tower.

And Im sorry, but this.

That said, sure, its nice that he wants to save Toms life.

Bens working on his script lauding Guardians actions in blowing up the tower … and killing Supergirl.

For some reason, James believes them.

But of course, Supergirls in the tower.

Curse his sudden but inevitable betrayal!

But Manchesters no dummy and quickly realizes that this isnt the real Agent Liberty.

He kills the henchmen but promises to spare the false Agents life in exchange for information.

I believe disloyalty should be rewarded, he says.

Supergirls able to climb to a top window, where James eventually notices the flash of her laser eyes.

And you know, even in a so-so episode, its always so much fun to watch Supergirl triumph.

When Ben hears the news, hes extremely displeased.

Understandable there goes tonights show!

After the excitement, Kara and James meet at CatCo to discuss duality and how people can surprise you.

But Lena just went through the wrenching experience of losing Adam and tells James to leave.

He does, but its unclear whether he takes the pasta with him.

Having vouched for Manchester with Kara, Jonn now wants answers.
