Supergirl (2015–…): Season 5, Episode 13 - It's a Super Life - full transcript

Previously on Supergirl...

[KARA] I can't help thinking that...

if I had done things differently

with my friendship with Lena,

maybe things would have
turned out differently.

There's no way of knowing.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

[ALEX] Okay, I'm sorry, I'm confused.

This is your all-powerful
Fifth Dimensional stalker?

No. I don't know who this is.



I am Mr. Mxyzptlk,

just as I'm sure
that you, Kara Danvers,

are Su...

[GRUNTS] Get in here.

[YELLS INCOHERENTLY]
Thank you so much.

I can't just come in anymore.
I have to be invited.

Tell me who you are
and what you want, now.

[MR. MXYZPTLK ON TV] I'm your
one true love, your soulmate,

your one true 'pairing'
as the kids say.

My name is Mxyzptlk,
and I love you, Kara Zor-El.

Okay. If you... [GASPS]

- [GASPS]
- Aw, come on.

If you are Mxy,
then why do you look like this?

Okay, I only took on that other form



and sophisticated accent
to impress you.

But it worked.

You caught me.

[MR. MXYZPTLK ON TV] Tricked me.

[SUPERGIRL ON TV] No,
I followed the rules.

You say your name backwards,

you go back to the Fifth
Dimension, no questions asked.

[MR. MXYZPTLK] Ah, I miss that hair.

I really, really do.

But now, I can't use
any of my powers,

except to help those
whom I have wronged.

Oh, how sad for you.

Yes.

A tragedy of Shakespearean
proportions, I agree.

But great news.

You're the last one.

[LAUGHS] What could I
possibly need your help for?

[LENA ON TV] I killed
my brother for you,

for our friends!
Don't you understand what you've done?

Your best friend thinks
that she is your enemy.

And the worst part...

It's your fault.

You hid the truth from her.

You let her find out
from that sadist, Lex,

and now, you think

she could be capable of anything.

- What's your point?
- My point, toots, is this.

Careful.

I am offering you a do-over.

Hmm?

I could send you back in time.

Wouldn't you like to be able to
tell Lena that you're Supergirl

on your own terms?

Wouldn't you like to see...

what the world would look like...

if you controlled the narrative?

- Haven't you hurt enough?
- [BOTH GASP]

- [SIGHS]
- Hmm?

I get it.

You don't trust me.

Okay, but how's this?

Ready? Now, by Fifth Dimensional law,

I am required
to give you this recording

of me saying my name backwards,

in case you ever need to banish
me to my Fifth Dimension,

- which I know that you...
- [RECORDED VOICE] Kltpzyxm.

[SPUTTERS]

[LENA ON TV] I'm not a villain.

You shouldn't have
treated me like one.

Hey, girls.

What's going on?

[EXHALES DEEPLY]

You're not seriously thinking
of doing this, are you?

What if I could change things?

If I told Lena that I
was Supergirl before Lex,

maybe she would have
reacted differently.

I mean, isn't that worth a try?

Changing history
to save a friendship?

- Kara, I don't... I don't know.
- No.

This is changing history
to save history,

'cause Lex and Lena are
planning something horrible,

and we are no closer
to finding out what that is.

And when the fight comes...

I don't know if I have
what it takes to stop her.

Kara...

are you sure you can trust Mxy?

No. [SIGHS]

But the tape recorder worked.

I... I could always just use it
to get him to go away.

[ALEX] All right, listen to me.

If you really think
that this is your best chance

to set things right with Lena
before she hurts somebody...

then do it.

Okay.

Uh... How do I do this?

Um...

[WHIRRING]

- [MR. MXYZPTLK] Oh!
- [KARA] Oh, God.

Thank Zook you changed your mind.

Yes, I'm still working on eavesdropping.
That's a problem.

Okay, uh, before we do
this, Mxy, I need your word

that if things go sideways,

you'll put it all back to normal.

I am court-ordered to do so.

Boop.

[MR. MXYZPTLK CLAPS HANDS] Now,
no shade to the Super Friends,

but it tends to work better when
it's just me and the subject.

So, do you two have any plans?

- No. I don't think so.
- No. No, we were just gonna...

[GASPS] What...

Where did they go?

Oh... [CHUCKLES]
They're in their happy place.

- [SILENCED GUNSHOT]
- [GROANS]

Magic rules!

Game on, Danvers!

All right, so,

how does this work?

I will show you
relevant parts of your life.

You'll tell me when to pause,

I will snap,

like thus,

sending you back.

You will change history.

Once you have confronted
Lena, you will come back,

we will watch from your loft
and the safety of your couch.

If you are comfortable
with the domino effect...

[CLAPS HANDS]

I will then snap again,

at which point,

- it will become reality.
- [REEL WHIRRING]

- Okay?
- Okay.

So, three years of friendship.
Where did it go wrong?

Well...

Uh-huh.

[SIGHS DEEPLY] When Lena told me
that she knew I was Supergirl,

- she was furious.
- Yeah.

- She said I made a fool out of her.
- Uh-huh.

She was humiliated.

Okay, so, we're looking for a moment
where you made your best friend

feel like a big, dumb idiot. Yeah?

- In so many words.
- Okay.

Well, we have
an embarrassment of riches.

[GASPS]

Get your seatbelt back on.
I'm gonna land this plane.

- [KARA] Oh, yeah, this is a good one.
- [MR. MXYZPTLK] Oh.

Mmm.

[LENA ON TV] Kara? Kara?

God, I hate flying.

- [MR. MXYZPTLK] Oh!
- Ugh. This is awful!

- I'm awful!
- You're awful.

I was just agreeing with you.
I would never say that.

- Uh-huh.
- Okay.

- [KARA] Oh, okay.
- [MR. MXYZPTLK] Ah.

Let's go to before Mercy attacks.

- [MR. MXYZPTLK] Right there?
- [KARA] Mmm-hmm.

- [MR. MXYZPTLK] You sure?
- [KARA] Yes.

Don't mess it up.

[LENA] To be honest,
I didn't have much

faith in politicians to begin with.

I just don't think
any of them can be trusted.

Don't look so scandalized, Kara.

You know how cynical I can be.

[BREATHES DEEPLY]

Is everything okay?

You shouldn't have to be so cynical.

You're good and righteous,

and... and the tragedy is,

the world has made you cynical

because you've been
betrayed so many times.

By your mother, by your brother...

and now, by me.

What are you talking about?

I'm not who you think I am.

I'm Supergirl.

I never meant to deceive you.

I just didn't know how to tell you.

[ALARM BLARING]

You stay here. I'll deal with this.

- [GUNFIRE]
- [METAL CLANKING]

Lena?

[KARA] What happened? Where'd she go?

Ah. Events are unfolding
differently now.

Oh, boy. Um, I need to catch up.

- [MAGICAL ZAP]
- [MR. MXYZPTLK] Ah, there she is.

[KARA] She went to Metropolis.

Oh, my God.

She went to see Sam.

So, Kara is Supergirl?

[LENA] Yeah, I know.
My head's kind of spinning.

When you were Reign,
and I made Kryptonite to stop you...

You know, in response,
Supergirl was so horrible.

And then, Kara was the same.

She was so kind and supportive.

But it made me think,
which was the real Kara?

And if the real Kara thought
I was a villain...

then maybe that's all I really am.

No, Lena, no.
How could you ever think that?

Lena, you made Kryptonite
to split me from Reign

and to save my life.

You were never the villain.

You were always the hero.

Thank you.

I really needed to hear that.

[KARA] The Lena in this
timeline might never forgive me.

She might even hate me.

You know what? You know what?

If Sam stops her
from going down a dark path,

I can live with that.

Except you literally can't.

What do you mean?

[MAGICAL ZAP]

[KARA] Oh, my God.

This is the night Agent Liberty
poisoned the air with Kryptonite.

[MR. MXYZPTLK] Uh, you know what?

Maybe we should shut this off.

- Huh?
- No, no, no.

Lena saved me the first time.

She might hate me,
but she'll save me again.

She wants to,
but she'll never make it in time.

[MONITOR BEEPING]

[INHALES DEEPLY]

Hey, Kara.

I'm sorry I missed Thanksgiving.

We're just...
We're so lost without you.

I...

am so lost without you.

Happy late Thanksgiving. [SOBS]

[KARA] Oh.
Can you please turn it off?

I can't watch any more of this.
Just stop it! [CRIES]

[CRYING]

That was horrible.

Obviously, you don't want
to stay dead.

- No!
- No!

No, I have to go back further.

I get it now.

I get it now.

My dual identities made Lena think

that she couldn't trust
either side of me.

I was a hypocrite.

Okay, so, when exactly did this

Kryptonite-fueled tete-a-tete happen?

Ah... It was...
It was, uh, just after

we found out Lena was housing Reign.

Lena, the Worldkillers are coming.

- We have to get you some place...
- Mmm...

- Skip forward.
- Skip.

You are never going to make
Kryptonite ever again.

- You really do have a God-complex.
- [KARA] See, there.

- This fight is what I'm trying to avoid.
- Mmm-hmm. Okay.

So, go back.

I need you to find out if there
really isn't any Kryptonite left.

Kara, you're asking me to betray
somebody that I really care about.

I never should have done that.

- Uh, yeah, it has to be before this.
- Yeah, hang on, before.

We have to go back further.

[TAPE REWINDING]

- Here.
- Yep.

My friend came to me.

She was alone and afraid.
I had to do something.

I need you to level with me.

Do you have any more Kryptonite?

- This is it.
- Mmm-hmm.

This is the moment that Lena
started to distrust Supergirl.

- This is when I have to tell her, so...
- Okay.

Mmm...

[SIGHS]

Beam me up, Mxy.

You don't have a catchphrase?

We'll work on that.

'Girl power!' No.

My friend came to me.

She was alone and afraid.
I had to do something.

That feeling of needing
to protect your friend,

no matter what the world thinks...

I understand that more than you know.

You once told me

Kara Danvers was your hero.

I never told you that. I told...

It's me, Lena.

I've always been Kara.

Kara, how could you?

I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner.

Three weeks ago, I found out that
Sam, one of my closest friends,

was a homicidal Kryptonian.

I went through that terror alone.

I risked my life
day after day for weeks

because I believed
that I was the only one

who could be trusted
to protect her, to save her.

I could have used your help.

I would have used your help

if you'd bothered to tell me
the truth before now.

If you'd trusted me then,

I wouldn't have had to
go through that danger alone!

I'm so sorry,

but I thought I was protecting you.

But now, we can... we can move
past it and work as partners.

You expect me
to be your partner after this?

When all you've done is prove to me

that you can't be trusted at all?

Oh, no.

[EXHALES]

[ALARMS BLARING]

[GROANS]

I...

- I forgot.
- Yeah.

- The Worldkiller started an
eclipse that day. - Mmm-hmm.

- So, you forgot the... forgot the
eclipse... - [KARA CLEARS THROAT]

...and then, you also forgot
the Kryptonite bomb.

You know what we're not gonna do?

We're not gonna rely
on your memory anymore

for maybe, like,
big, important details.

- [SCOFFS]
- Just sayin'.

We got to try something else.

- How about here?
- No! No. Just let this play out a bit,

- because in the original
version of events... - Mmm-hmm.

...Lena helped me and the DEO
to fight the Worldkillers.

- Okay.
- I know she's upset right now,

but she's gonna help us.

Welcome to the bizarro version

where she does not help the DEO,

- right... right here.
- What?

Oh, God! No.

If Lena doesn't help us fight
the Worldkillers, then...

- Yep.
- Wait, wait, wait.

Wait. You're skipping a lot!

This is all exposition,
so much exposition.

Hold on! Was that Mon-El?

Yes.

- So, he didn't go back to the future?
- No.

Huh. Of course.

If we didn't defeat Pestilence,

- then he would have been
there with us... -Uh-huh.

...when we went to Sam's mom's house.

Can you... Can you snap me in there?

I want to get his perspective.

I never understood
what you saw in him.

You need to leave
for your own safety.

I... I won't leave my daughter.

I failed her when she was a girl.

I refuse to fail her again.

Well, is there at least a
safe place for you to hide?

There's a safe room.

I'll wait there.

[SIGHS]

- We should take up defensive positions.
- No, wait. Um...

I need your advice.

I finally told Lena I'm Supergirl.

Wow.

How... How did she take it?

Not well.

And I don't blame her. I mean,
I'm supposed to be her best friend,

and I... I lied

and betrayed her just like
everyone else in her life has.

So, what do I do?

You know, Lena and I
have a lot in common.

We've both been betrayed
by our own families.

And when the people who are
supposed to love you the most

let you down,
it just makes you feel so...

so vulnerable, you know?

But my mother and the Luthors,

they betrayed Lena
for their own selfish reasons.

They...

They wanted to take advantage of her.

You lied to... to protect her.

Because she's your friend.

[SIGHS]

Now, I know Lena's hurting
right now, but...

once she understands that...

she'll forgive you.

I hope you're right.

But I don't think I'll ever
be able to forgive myself.

You know it's okay to mess up, right?

No matter how many mistakes I've
made, you've always forgiven me.

You should, uh, know that you
deserve the same compassion

that you show others.

Reign will be here soon.
We should get ready.

[FOOTSTEPS RECEDING]

[REIGN] Did you miss me?

[YELLING]

[GRUNTS]

[GROUND CRACKING]

[SUPERGIRL GROANING]

Sam! Sam, no, this isn't you!

I know you're in there,
I know you are!

No.

You really thought
you could stop me, Supergirl?

You can't even protect
this one pathetic human.

Oh, Sam...

[ELECTRIC ZAP]

[REIGN GROANS]

[LENA] No. But I can.

Because this is the tool I use to

bring Reign out and bury you down.

Come back to us, Sam!

[LABORED BREATHING] I will kill...

you all!

No, you won't.

- [ZAPS]
- [GROANS]

[REIGN BREATHING HEAVILY]

[SAM'S MOM] Sam! Sam!

Lena.

What happened?

Sam, it's okay. It's okay.
You're gonna be okay.

Oh, Sam, I'm so sorry.

[SOBBING] I'm so sorry.

[SUPERGIRL] You did it!

You saved Sam.

Yeah, and I did it
without Kryptonite.

[ZAPS]

No!

Fool!

I am a Worldkiller.

And I cannot be stopped!

No!

[GRUNTS]

[GRUNTS]

[GROANING]

Sam! No! No! No! Sam! [CRYING]

No, please!

Come back to me, Sam!

[SUPERGIRL] Mxy, they're all dead.

Please, get me out of here.

- [BREATHING HEAVILY]
- [MR. MXYZPTLK SNAPS FINGERS]

Then she was never
angry about hypocrisy.

She was angry because
I never shared my

identity with her in the first place.

So, you know what that means?

We have to go back
to the very beginning.

Give me a date and a time,
I will make it so.

- Um, let me think.
- Uh...

Hang on a second.

It's just, it's buffering.

This happens sometimes.

It's the interdimensional Wi-Fi.

You know what?
It doesn't even matter.

I've got your entire
friendship on BetaMyx.

So, when did the two
of you become friends?

[KARA] Uh... It... It was...

Right after Lena moved
to National City.

You have had a lot of adventures.

"Lena," please.

It's good to see you again,
Miss Danvers.

- If I'm calling you "Lena"...
- Kara...

- [KARA] Oh, it's too...
- [MR. MXYZPTLK] Anything?

- Too soon.
- Too soon.

I wrote a scathing article
about your device.

Mmm... Getting closer. Here.

I would hate for you
to give me these emails

out of some misplaced
sense of friendship.

This was right before Lena
and I really became friends.

See, she's about to say,

[BOTH] I didn't come here
to make friends.

She didn't wanna let anyone in,

and then, when she did,

I made the mistake
of not letting her in, too.

This time, I'm gonna do it right.

Bye!

[MAGICAL ZAP]

I didn't come here to make friends.

[SIGHS]

I wanna show you something.

Listen, I'm really busy,
so, if we could just...

[WHOOSHES]

[GASPS]

It's you.

- Kara Danvers is Supergirl.
- Yeah.

Can't believe I was fooled
by a pair of glasses.

Don't worry, a lot people are.

Oh, God, I have to recall all
those alien detection devices

'cause they clearly don't work.

You're not angry?

No, it's incredible.

I mean, you're incredible!

But...

Why are you trusting me
with such a big secret?

You barely know me.

Because I know that what
you want more than anything

is to do good.

And I know it's hard
for you to trust people,

but I need you to know now,
without a doubt,

I trust you.

[SIGHS] My cousin, your
brother, they got it wrong.

Imagine what we could do together.

A Luthor and a Super,
working together as a team.

If we were partners,
we could change the world.

[HEROIC MUSIC]

[MR. MXYZPTLK, ANIMATEDLY] Only months after
publicly declaring their partnership,

the formidable duo
of Supergirl and Lena Luthor

has already cleaned up National
City's criminal element.

This pair is literally unstoppable!

Not to mention, fashionable

after Lena convinced Supergirl
to cut the hair of steel,

and gave her a new suit to boot.

But their next adversary
is Lillian Luthor herself,

and this time,
their battleground is a courtroom.

Emotions. Drama.

Will they persevere?

Mxy, can you please
take this seriously?

Take it seriously,
because every party needs a pooper,

and that's why we invited Kara.

Really?

If we're gonna take the fun out
of stuff, let's really do it.

[SNAPS FINGERS]

And what is Supergirl's real name?

I hardly see how that's relevant.

Citizens have the right to know the

name of the officer
that arrests them.

If Supergirl is gonna act
like judge and jury,

we should know her name as well.

I plead the Fifth.

[FEMALE REPORTER]
Powerful testimonies

in the trial of Lillian Luthor today.

But will they be undercut
by Lena Luthor's refusal

to give up Supergirl's identity?

Well, nothing so trifling
as the laws of man

could stand in the way of Supergirl

and Lena Luthor's divine victories!

[CROWD CHEERING]

Where I once thought

that true power was the
Kryptonian walking amongst us,

but that power is nothing
compared to the might

of a Kryptonian paired with a Luthor!

[CROWD CHEERING]

[KARA] This is incredible.

The last time Lillian was on trial,

the whole world suspected Lena
of working with her,

- but having Supergirl as a partner...
- [GASPING]

...it gives Lena the credibility
her last name never could.

- This is it.
- Yes.

This is the timeline where
I truly do no harm to Lena,

and the world sees her
for the hero she really is.

[LENA] Of course,
I'm more than happy to donate.

Okay.

- [MAN] Miss Luthor.
- [KARA] Oh, no.

Is that Lockwood?

You knew my father, Pete Lockwood?

You're Ben.

We were sourcing our steel
from his factory,

and then he abruptly closed it.

No, he didn't close it.
He converted it to a church.

The Cult of Rao.

I'm so sorry, Ben.

If Supergirl and I can do
anything to help your father...

You can't.

Because he's dead.

My father, my wife,

my only son, George,
they jumped off a roof

because they believed...

that she would save them.

And she didn't.

I'm so sorry, Ben.

If there's anything
I could do to help...

Well, you could tell me
who Supergirl is.

She parades around as a god,

but she hides in plain sight
as a human.

Miss Luthor, if...
if people knew who she was,

if they knew that she bought
a coffee in the morning

or that she rode the bus or that she

worked a job just
like the rest of us,

then they would stop worshipping her.

So, I have to know who she is.

And you are going to tell me.

It's never gonna happen.

And if you have issues
with the Cult of Rao,

I suggest you take it up
with Coville.

Oh... I already have.

[MAGICAL ZAP]

Hiya!

[LENA SCREAMS]

[GRUNTING]

Thomas Coville wants you to believe

that National City's resident

Kryptonian is someone
worth worshipping,

worth dying for.

Is Supergirl a god?

I'm not sure about that.

Not sure about that.

When she goes home at night,

did you know that she
lives a secret human life?

Until today.

Until today, because today, Supergirl

will reveal her
identity to the world,

or... Coville
and Miss Luthor will die.

No. Supergirl, don't do it!

So, Supergirl, one hour
of breathable oxygen left,

the clock starts now.

[TIMER BEEPING]

What're you gonna do?
Uh... No spoilers.

I'm loving this. Uh, I mean...

[WINN] I can't trace the signal.

[ALEX] Look, some lone wolf
shouldn't have the resources

to thwart our trackers.

He must have powerful help.

Yeah, help spelled L-E-X.

If that's the case,
then we are never gonna find her.

[METAL CREAKS]

Stay here, I got it.

Every morning when I wake up...

I imagine this moment.

The moment where being Supergirl
gets someone I love killed.

And I have push that fear
so far down...

[SIGHS]

...or I... I can't get out of bed.

But now, here it is.

My greatest fear,
just staring me right in the face.

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

I have to save Lena.

I... I have to,
but if I tell the world who I am,

then I put everyone else I love
at even greater risk.

Alex, J'onn, James, you.

What if one of you gets hurt?

Don't worry about
the rest of us, okay?

We're gonna be fine.

No, Lena is the one that
needs your help right now.

We can take care of ourselves...

because you taught us how.

We're here at National City Hall,

where Supergirl is set
to arrive any minute,

and announce her human identity
to the world.

- Oh, sorry.
- Jeez. You're strong.

Hello.

[VOICE AMPLIFIED] Hello.

I am Kara Danvers.

Some of you may know me as a
reporter for CatCo Worldwide Media.

- But I am also...
- [LABORED BREATHING]

Kara Zor-El, of Krypton.

[PEOPLE MURMURING]

I am Supergirl.

- [CAMERAS CLICKING]
- [CLAMORING]

Good stuff, my dude!

But we should kill
the hostages anyway, right?

No.

No, we keep our word.

Send them the location.

Are you okay?

[LABORED BREATHING]

Just breathe, Lena. It's okay.

Maybe it's time the world knows.

I've always been so afraid to
reveal my identity to the world,

but look, it saved Lena.

Maybe...

Just maybe, this...

this is the timeline
to stick with. Let's...

I see why you would think that,

but, um, maybe we should
skip ahead to the ending?

Oh, no, what happens?

[NEWSREADER] After Supergirl's
identity was released to the world,

Agent Liberty and his followers

targeted each of Supergirl's friends,

including her former
employer Cat Grant...

- No.
- ...one by one.

There were no survivors.

- All right, all right, enough. Stop.
- Alex Danvers, Winn Schott...

I don't wanna see anymore.
Please turn it off, please.

- ...J'onn J'onzz...
- [MAGICAL ZAP]

[SIGHS]

It doesn't matter
when I tell Lena the truth.

It always makes things worse.

[SIGHS] I think I've been too
scared to admit it to myself, but...

I think Lena would be better off
if she and I were never friends.

Is that the world you wanna see?

No.

Please just show me anyway.

[SNAPS FINGERS]

[SUPERGIRL] What happened?

Where are we?

Where your loft used to be.

[SIRENS WAILING IN DISTANCE]

[MR. MXYZPTLK] Uh...

You know what? No thanks.

- Nope. I don't need to see it.
- Yeah.

- Can you just snap us out of here?
- Yep. With pleasure.

What's happening?

I can't feel
the Fifth Dimension at all.

Without my powers...

We're stuck here?

[SIRENS APPROACHING]

We should get out of here.

You think?

[AUTOMATED VOICE]
Citizens, you're out

after curfew,
in defiance of Luthor Law.

[GUNFIRE]

This world sucks!

You don't know the half of it.

Look who I found.

Oh, Kara, thank God you're here.

Who's this?

Oh, this is my friend, Mxyzptlk.

- Mxyzptlk?
- [SUPERGIRL] Yeah.

What, you thought with the new face,

we wouldn't recognize
the same old you?

This is the guy who tried
to make Kara marry him.

It's fine, Mon-El.
Because he is reformed...

and he's actually helping me.

Uh, no... You know what?
No, Mon-El is right. Okay?

It was despicable of me
to pursue a woman

who so clearly was not
interested in me from the get-go.

I misread the room,
and I'm gonna be better.

It's tough to be an imp.

And I'm gonna try
for the rest of my days.

So, maybe we can let
the past be the past, huh?

Come on.

Wow. Okay, you won.

We'll need all the help we can get.

All right, well,

look... things are not as they
seem, and I will explain, but...

First, will someone please
tell me what's going on here?

[ALARM BLARING]

[LENA] People of National City,

I regret to inform you that the
terrorist known as Supergirl

- is at large.
- Terrorist?

She's working with
a Fifth Dimensional

being, capable of mass destruction.

H.O.P.E. Robots have been deployed

throughout the city
for your protection.

Please, report to them any
and all suspicious activity.

And remember...

My goal is, as it has always been...

to protect you from harm.

No. [SIGHS]

When Lena first came
to National City...

to take over L-Corp,

Lex tried to have her assassinated.

He failed,

but she was seriously injured
in the attack.

She disappeared for two years.

When she came back,
everybody said that she was different,

that she had changed.

[KELLY] The trauma, the loneliness...

it drove her mad.

She retaliated against Lex,
killed him.

Took half of National City
along with her.

Now, she rules what's left
with an iron fist.

- Reign is her enforcer.
- And Brainy, too.

She captured him. Aligned him.

Now, he has no emotions...

and does whatever Lena tells him to.

[SUPERGIRL] Oh, no.

This, this... I have made
a terrible mistake.

This world is my responsibility.

Okay. Okay, we can still fix this.

- [MR. MXYZPTLK] I need my powers.
- [SUPERGIRL] Mmm-hmm.

But since we've been here...

They've disappeared.

That must be because Lena tapped
into the Fifth Dimensional energy

to use it to power her police robots.

And as long as she's
harnessing the Fifth

Dimension, then you can't access it.

I worked at L-Corp for about two
years before Lena found me out.

Uh, we caught a criminal.

He didn't have a name,
but he had a hat

that he could pull anything out of.

Old drinking buddy of mine.

I lost that hat to him
in a poker game.

That hat contains a lot
of Fifth Dimensional magic.

So, if we get you the hat...

Get me the hat,
I can make all of this go...

- bye-bye.
- [ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]

Surrender the imp or die!

Get the hat!

We'll hold her off!

Come on, I'll show you the way!

And I've got your back!

[DREAMER] Brainy, it's me.

It's Nia.

You don't have to do this.

I know I don't have to.

But I think I will enjoy it.

[GRUNTING]

Go to Lena, I've got Reign.

[GRUNTING]

[SUPERGIRL] Lena?

It's me.

It's Supergirl.

It's Kara.

Who's Kara?

Just a friend.

You don't know me.

Not really.

But you and I want the same thing...

to do no harm.

Supergirl wants a world without harm.

That's rich.

Where were you when my brother
blew my helicopter out of the sky?

When my mother dragged
my broken body to a laboratory

and experimented on me
instead of fixing me?

Where were you when this world
was ripped apart by the seams?

Where were you?

I'm sorry I wasn't there
when it mattered.

So am I.

[GROANING]

The hat's in this room.
I can feel it.

[GRUNTS]

It's J'onn.

- He needs our help.
- No, he needs this.

Time to face justice, Manhunter.

J'onn! Catch!

[GRUNTING]

Dreamer, do it now!

[EXHALES]

[SUPERGIRL GROANING]

You don't know
the first thing about pain.

But I do. I can show you,
make you feel what I feel.

I won't fight you, Lena.

Then you'll die screaming.

[GROANING]

Found it.

[BOTH GRUNT]

[PANTING]

We're home.

- Holy cow.
- Whew.

That was the most emotionally
draining experience of my life,

and let me tell ya,
I've had some doozies.

Okay. So, it ain't over
till it's over.

So, now, we've gotta find a time

for you to go back
and tell Lena the truth.

- You ready for one more go?
- No.

No. Absolutely not!

I realize now that it doesn't
matter when I tell Lena the truth.

There will always be consequences.

Huge ones.

And if I can't go back
and snap my mistakes away,

I'm just gonna
have to live with them.

- [SIGHS]
- Oh...

[MR. MXYZPTLK] Oh...

- [SIGHS HEAVILY]
- Oh, boy.

Okay.

I know it didn't turn out the
way we expected, but you...

You still helped me, Mxy.

You freed me from my
burden of guilt, so...

- Go, be free.
- Ah. [CHUCKLES]

Use your magic to do
whatever it is you do.

Thank you.

Um...

And I should say, uh...

Before I met you, I was, um...

I was pretty lonely.

You know, and in that pain, I...

I would tend to sort
of, force myself...

on people, and, uh...

Out there with you today,

saving the world, I felt like, um...

I felt like I was liked,
for being me.

I felt like I had friends.

And, uh...

it's true what you said, Kara.

That magic...

can't be forced.

It has to be found.

I'm proud of you, Mxy.

Thanks for everything.

You're welcome.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I'm off to Mardi Gras in the '80s.

The 1780s.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

[WHOOSHING]

[SIGHS]

Let me guess...

You're here to tell me once
again that I should forgive you.

Or maybe that I shouldn't
work with my brother?

Not this time.

I recognize I made a mistake

in hiding my identity
from you for so long,

but the past is the past,
and I can't change it.

Forgive me or not,
that's your choice.

Just like it's your choice
to work with Lex.

I'm done blaming myself
for your bad decisions.

Then why are you here?

To tell you that from now on,

you're accountable
for your own actions.

If you decide to forgive me,
I will be there for you.

But if you continue
to work with Lex...

If you go through with whatever
it is the two of you are planning,

I will do everything
in my power to stop you...

just like I would any other villain.

[WHOOSHING]

This is an extraordinary
amount of food.

A parting gift from Mxy. [CHUCKLES]

Well, I think we should
have Mxy here more often.

[ALL LAUGH]

I hear Fifth
Dimensional interventions

do wonders for one's perspective.

You know what?

Actually, they really do.

Seeing all those alternate versions
of reality made me realize,

second-guessing myself
doesn't do any good.

No.

So, if I make a mistake,
I just have to move on.

[SIGHS DEEPLY]

[LAUGHS] What is that smile?

You guys.

Guys, you've been with me from...

the second I became Supergirl.

In my best moments and
especially my worst moments.

That means the world to me.

Sames.

Back at you.

El-may-arah.

- Aw.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]

"Stronger together."

[ALL CHUCKLING]

- Potato.
- Po-tah-to.

[ALL CHUCKLING]
