Supergirlended its six-season run with a welcome returnas well as one frustrating step backward and one promising step forward.
Meanwhile, all is not well on the villain side of things.

Her bigotry truly knows no bounds!
Thankfully, Kara abandons this foolish plan when she starts seeing the chaos it causes.
(Apparently, their powers don’t work on the bridge but work on the ground just beneath it?

Lex and Nyxly use their thirds to knock Supergirl down before turning on each other.
Nyxly prepares to blast Lex, but Lilian dives in front of the beam and saves her son.
A heroic act from a wicked mother.

Having transformed into literal monsters, Lex and Nyxly portal off and start fighting their way across National City.
“They’re empowering themselves by disempowering everyone else,” Kelly says.
It’s because of that Kara rules out using her piece of the All Stone to stop them.

But if she won’t do that, what can she do?
Cue a classic Supergirl hope speech to do just that!
No point spending too much time on the battle because the episode, thankfully, doesn’t.
All institutions start out with the best intentions but can easily go astray.
Anyway, the finale jumps ahead three weeks to the eve of Alex and Kelly’s wedding.
After all, she left CatCo because she couldn’t juggle being both Supergirl and Kara.
Kara explains that she feels torn between her two lives.
Cat has no patience for this.
“Kiera, it’s crucial that you stop making excuses and decide what your course will be.
Now, there is important work to be done and I hope you’ll join me.
And it would be interesting, because this isboring.”
Despite the underwhelming and sweaty totem quest, this is a satisfying and promising place to leave Kara.
Not only that, but Cat is right.
