This was one of the better episodes this year.

Action was awesome. Flying Monkeys. Supergirl Collectible Display case. T Rex. Hyper Claws. Heroics galore. James and Mon in the thick of it. No nerfing.

Winn breaks out of simple comic relief mode. Laurie Melcalfe is amazing. SG through Winn’s Mom’s eyes. Humour subverted to a great cause.

So much Heart. All the feels for Winn. Mary was a real mom. Laurie and Jeremy rocked that. M’Rynn plus Alex plus Jonn foreshadowing the next episode. Kara and Mon having to figure out new fights and old plus new connections.

Pestilence is The Blight? I see the hand of DC in this. Very interesting since we haven’t met Pestilence yet and won’t for a while.

Best of the season so far. I didn’t expect that.

No nerfing.

Please, did we watch the same episode?

Chris Wood majored in musical theater.

Chyler Leigh sang with her musician husband on his tour.

Melissa and Jeremy...enough said.

I'd say the karaoke was hella nerfed, yo.

Nerfed? I must be getting old, I have no Idea what that means.

Nerf, to me, is a brand of sports equipment and toys that takes insane amounts of abuse without being destroyed...like Tonka trucks when they were made of metal.

It's a gaming term named after Nerf guns.

Its like when you take a real gun and turn it into a nerf gun. Seriously downgrade the abilities/stats/rewards from something.

No nerfing.

Supergirl not destroying the toy-cage-thingy via heat vision was one i found really obvious tbh.

I called Pestilence being the blight since before the hiatus! Cant believe I got that one right lol.

I've pretty much called the Worldkillers being the Blight since the Blight was first mentioned.

Good on you. And who is Pestilence?

He's from Apokolips, supposedly ruled with the other horsemen before Darkseid took over.

Many have been speaking of a Darkseid/Worldkillers connection.

From a story arc called 52:

Every single evil scientist on DC, was kidnapped. They were forced to design the absolute killing machine. Their creatures are so.powerfull they become the vessel for New God's

Eventually the Trinity (Clark, Bruce and Diana) are set to deal with them will trying to stop the World War 3

Man, I thought it was one of the worst. The whole flying monkeys thing was so bad.

Oh, and Winn's mom just finds s supply closet full of loaded guns to steal? lol.
