"But sir, he …"
"Do as I say!"

I don't think any of us expected Powerthirteen to say that.

What do you think this is, The Mask?

Mom told me that I should be nicer to you.

Right, but that Snart (at the start of LoT season 1) had lived through 1.5 (?) seasons of the Flash and had evolved from criminal to potential hero. The Snart that Thawne retrieved was from earlier in the timeline when he was still just a criminal and hadn't been convinced by the Flash that he could be more than

Before this season, I had never heard anything about Carter being any kind of Nazi. So the coincidence of this book title does not make me say "Oh, this is ultimate proof that he is a neo-Nazi."

We just have to accept that Leena, Winn and Lillian (and originally Lex) designed a bomb that would spread whatever it contained (originally green kryptonite, but now lead) throughout the entire Earth's atmosphere without creating any shock waves that would knock buildings down, planes out of the sky, or kill humans.

You're right, but again, it was likely a nod to the original use of lead for Daxamites in the comics, so that's why they used the word "irradiate".

Travis was not Alicia's father - he and Madison were never married, they were just boyfriend/girlfriend. So while Alicia is sad that Travis is dead, he was never a father figure to her (he didn't raise her; I think it's implied or stated that Madison and Travis had been dating for awhile but not a long period of

Oh, are they?

No idea if the current comics still use the force field explanation or not. I can understand the writers getting tired of constant questions about how Superman's costume is invulnerable, then coming up with the "baby blankets from Krypton" explanation, but then having readers complain about how convenient it was that

I'm not too worried that Kara didn't feel bad for days that she killed a robot that was trying to kill her. She had bigger things to worry about i.e. she had to use her heat vision on its greatest intensity to stop RT that she temporarily lost her powers. If it's a choice of seeing Kara struggle with not having any

Your point was that Kara was reluctantly fighting her cousin, and I pointed out why of course she was reluctantly fighting him. Maybe your definition of "refute" is different than mine?

I didn't remember that RT eventually became sentient, but that sounds familiar. But it was a threat trying to kill Supergirl. Should she let it kill her in order to not kill it? And what was its level of sentience? Was it expressing opinions like "I exist", "What is my purpose?" and "I want to survive"? I think

But the bad guys weren't your typical peaceful refugees. Most refugees have nothing and rely on other countries to help them, to give them a place to live. The Daxamites had technology, ships - they had the means to go anywhere and resettle wherever they wanted. They chose to enslave an occupied planet that had

But now what commercials will I have to listen to when I'm listening to my podcasts? Casper Matresses? Nature Box? Square Space?

In a show about Supergirl, pretty much every human is eventually going to be "in distress" and need to be saved. It even happened to Alex once this season, the most badass human on this show. So saying that Lena is "a damsel in distress" is pretty reductive. She's a strong character that stands up for herself and

So if something refutes your point, it's irrelevant?

Yes, they definitely meant "Doc Hollywood", the stories are almost identical. But he said "Doc Holliday".
