- Oh look, the Cult Children of Rao stalk children.

- Yay, the Superfriends are working together again! I missed this team. Can we have more?

- Sooo… was that kid arrested for arson or what?

- Someone actually saw through the glasses disguise. Too bad it was Culty McCulterson. Shouldn’t Lena have figured it out by now?

- A Kara/James scene! We didn’t have many of those last season. Glad to see them back.

- Wait, I thought Kryptonite affected Kryptonians because Krypton became irradiated when it exploded. Why would normal soil samples be irradiated?

- Awww. Alex really wants kids.

- So the bomb ended up kick-starting whatever was in Reign’s pod and turning on the “programming” in Sam’s head? Good job, Culty McCulterson.

They're pretty clearly treating Kryptonite as a rock-like/crystalline mineral that becomes toxically radioactive under a yellow sun.

Another great episode. The way they connected Thomas Coville to Supergirl was really smart..It was nice to see flashback to the pilot.Coville was an interesting villain. not totally evil, but let himself get corrupted by his faith

Seeing the #SuperFriends back in action was so beautiful

I really loved the scene where James told Kara how Clark saved him. I wouldn’t mind if we get no Guardian this season. He is more interesting this way

Girls night was beautiful. I hope there will be more

every mention of Mon-El

Alex's Scene was so heartbreaking I feel so bad for her but she can't keep lying to herself. Stunning performance by Chyler
Glad Kara was there to support her sister

Next week is gonna be hard,I am devastated to see Maggie leave but with Floriana exit there isn't really anything the writers can do and I think an important theme like having kids is a really realistic issue that could lead a couple to a break up even when love is there.

The ending was so emotional and a little bit creepy in the end. Hallelujah was a perfect song choice.

Sam/Reign development is really intriguing me. I feel sorry for her,she is going to think she's crazy before realizing who she is

so Kara inadvertently activated reign pod??

who could be on the ship?other word killers?? I'm so confused

Friend of mine seems near certain the writing he saw around in that ship at the end was the language used by the Legion of Superheroes... But then also I started reading the New 52 run of Supergirl, and those tubes sort of reminded me of the Worldkillers' ship or lab or something I saw in there So one or the other?

Yeah & it seems to me like motherhood & children are something Alex & Maggie should've discussed sooner. Alex is nice, but man in every episode it seems this season thus far a grown adult has been seen crying, so I think there's going to be a breaking point soon. Perhaps Alex & Maggie breakup or just take a break from each other. With the type of job Alex has she's already got enough on her plate I think. Good luck to em.

Thomas Coville reminded me of the D.P.R.K. & how Kim il Sung is thought of there & people will just believe anything no matter how crazy it sounds or delusional they are. That was bizarre.

Another fantastic episode! My heart broke for Alex, I knew deep down she does want to have children. That scene made me cry. The whole ending with the Hallelujah song was breathtaking!

However heartbreaking it meant for Alex and Maggie I love how Alex came to terms and knew that she wouldn't be happy if she was never a mom.

It's one thing if you can't have a baby or struggle or can't adopt, etc. But to really want kids but making the decision not to because your partner doesn't want kids would be breaking your own heart and she would eventually come to resent Maggie.
