I feel the show would be a lot more intelligent in many ways if they didn't feel the need to keep referencing dumb things from the comics.

Still, to save seven billion, it's an acceptable loss. They can still do it if the non-killy plan fails. Of course they won't, and we know that, but it's not the worst idea.
Or they could just take out the blue bitch who wants to rule the universe and let Non get humanity to save the planet, then take him out.

Do we really have to cover them with bed sheets?

National City is LA.

BTW, my call for the "hope" thing for next week is just a close-up of Supergirl's chest.
The logo, not the tits, I mean.
Although the tits will give a lot of people hope, too…..

With few exceptions, I think everyone commenting here wants SG to be good and is disappointed (not hate-filled) when it stumbles. And everyone without exception agrees Melissa IS Supergirl.

I read somewhere that her supersuit was padded in the shoulders to help with that effect.

My (hopeful) take on that was that she deliberately name-dropped Kara and talked about her as another person to ensure SG didn't think that Cat still thought/knew SG was Kara. It just seemed overly clumsy and pointed.
"Oh, I've become a better person - I'm even nicer to my assistant, whose name I still get wrong, but…

I assumed the "she" for the president was referring to President Clinton, who will, barring a miracle, be the next president of the US, and "she" for God was just Max being snarky talking to a woman.

Was I the only one hoping Jimmy would end up going splat?

After a strong start this year, Regina is being sidelined and neutered, which isn't very interesting. I hope she won't go and camp out in the woods with Robin. She's not that sort of camp….
The daisy dying is because Gaston didn't get to Move On, so hope did not bloom.

Did we actually *see* any animals in the animal shelter? Or is this a purgatory where, even though your job is to care for animals, there are no animals to care for and thus no point to your existence?

Hook and Emma have chemistry like acids and bases have chemistry.

You think he might be a reference to that famous St. Germain, perhaps?
This is, however, not information as such, merely an additional hypothesis, so I can't make a decision based on it.

Possible, of course, but it only increases the number of coincidences. Does Claire's newspaper story mention anything about where and when she was taken back to, for example? How would Geillis have known where in Scotland Claire was?
I don't disagree with your theory in the sense that I think it is wrong, but I need…

This reminds me of Asimov's short story about going back in time to get a genuine copy of the Declaration of Independence and selling it in the modern era for bulk cash. While absolutely authentic in every way, it was determined to be a forgery as it was just too new….

This might be why I like her - she reminds me of me. I'm just as egotistical and selfish, seeing everything through how it affects me and mine. Though I'm not as brave, and I don't care much about the sufferings of others.

If they really wanted to stay out of history's way, they should have gone to NZ, being the smallest and least influential of the Anglosphere nations.

Only assuming 1940s Claire manages to stand out in history enough to be noticed. It's possible that Geillis did careful research before travelling to the 18th century and spotted the newspaper article about the fairie abduction and realised what it was, but we don't know that yet.

I know why he did it. But it was still wrong.
