Previously on
"Supergirl"...

If you're gonna save
your world

you have to work
with Lex Luthor.

I'm just gonna kill Supergirl
myself.

I won.

Silas, we want you to help us
break into the Phantom Zone.

The portals only open
and close long enough

for a Phantom to get through.

Then I guess we're gonna have
to catch a Phantom.

We find the defendant
not guilty.

The Phantom Zone's been
fractured,

it would take years for us
to make it to each of them.

Supergirl is in there,
okay?

We are bringing her home.

I think the Phantom did
something to me.

Please come.

Silas.

It's freezing in here.

Found him.

What happened?

A Phantom.
It burst out of me

and attacked me.

It was so cold, worse than
I can ever imagine.

Like living death.

We didn't send all the Phantoms
back to the Phantom Zone.

One got out.

Theme music playing...

*Supergirl*
Season 06 Episode 03

Episode Title: "Phantom Menaces"
Aired on: April 13, 2021

You ready to catch a ride?

Kara.

Get him.

No, let her go!

Kara, Kara, Kara!

- Father...
- Kara!

- No.
- Stop! Stop! Bring him back.

Quiet.

It'll hear you.

Who'll hear me?
Where are they taking him?

Same place
we're taking you.

Don't touch me.

You gotta get out of here.

Phantoms, over the ridge,
coming this way.

They just tore through
a bunch of White Martians,

now they're
on the rampage too.

- Why should I believe you?
- Because they got Az-Rel.

That was all
that was left of him.

Oh, no, they're here.

That was too easy.

There are no Phantoms
or White Martians

coming over the ridge,
are there?

- And Az-Rel?
- Oh, he's fine,

wherever he is.

I nicked this from him
weeks ago.

Girl's gotta light a fire
somehow.

Thank you, but they took my father.
I have to go rescue him.

You will.

But first, we have to get you
and that leg somewhere safe.

Come with me.

All right.

It's all right.

Where are you, Supergirl?
You're in here somewhere.

In the dark and in the cold.

All alone...

I'm here with Lex Luthor.

How does it feel
to be a free man?

Um, in a word,
beautiful.

Well, Rhonda,
it feels wrong.

Because I'm a madman who should
be rotting in prison.

...jury, I wanna say thank you.

Without you, my future
wouldn't be so bright.

You shouldn't have
a future.

You shouldn't even be able to
sleep at night.

You should be haunted

by a Kryptonian heart beating
ceaselessly beneath your floorboards!

Brainy! Alex!
We need thermal blankets.

- It's okay, it's okay.
- What happened to him?

A Phantom slipped by us last night.
It attacked Silas.

How did it get by us?

It nested inside of him.

But if it escaped him,
why attack?

I have three roommates,
I don't know where they are.

It's okay, it's okay.
We'll find them.

Brainy, get me everything you
can on Phantoms.

We didn't know they could
possess humans,

what what else don't we
know about them?

I'm so cold.

Where's Alex and Dreamer?

Nia was pulled for
Catco's investor's retreat.

Andrea wouldn't let her say no,
she has to replace Kara.

Alex went home last night
to get some rest.

I need her here.
This man needs help.

Go easy on her.

She was crushed when we couldn't
save Supergirl from the Phantom Zone.

So was I.

But you were the one who reminded
me to act like a soldier not a father.

Alex needs to do
the same right now.

You both need to be honest
with your emotions...

I acted on my emotions
yesterday.

And not only did we fail
to save Supergirl,

but I let a Phantom escape
into this world.

I won't make
the same mistake again.

When I landed on Earth,

I was alone.

My adoptive mother raised me
as her own,

with kindness and compassion.

And my sister, she showed me
what it truly means to be strong.

To love so fiercely, it hurts.

She taught me
what it means to be human.

She was my first companion
on this planet.

Without her, I wouldn't be the hero,

the person
I am today.

I thought you weren't going
to watch that.

I am Kara Zor-El.

That's before I thought
she wasn't really gone.

Hey...

Kara is not dead.

No, it's worse than death.

She's trapped in a cold hell...

because I couldn't save her.

So, what's...

What's my purpose now?

What's the point of
trying anything else?

Baby...

Loss is different for everyone,
but it hurts the same.

And I will sit with you,
right here.

I can't breathe.

I feel like
I don't even deserve air...

It's J'onn.

I know what
you're going to say,

but it doesn't matter if I pick
up the phone or not, there's...

There's no point.

The point is
that you're still here.

And you get to decide whether
you give up or you keep going.

Look, I know it's not
the same thing

but yesterday,
when I was in my own despair

about what happened at
Obsidian...

I lost my way and I found a
lifeline in helping Silas find his.

Because when everything seems
dark,

that's when we show up
for those who need us the most.

Thoroughly unpleasant surprise.

Good morning, sis.
I promise this'll be quick.

When I woke up this morning, I
could not wait to get back to work.

So, I opened my computer and,
wouldn't you know it,

I have been locked out of
all Luthor Corp accounts.

Even my own Lex Foundation,
isn't that funny?

You may be a free man, Lex, but
your time at Luthor Corp is over.

Ah-ha-ha!

See,
I had a feeling it was you.

The firewalls were spectacular,
by the way.

And how did you change my
bioscan?

Ah, let me guess, the Coluan
helped you out with that?

Cute prank, sis.
Now, undo it.

Maybe I wasn't clear,

I will do everything
in my power to protect this company

and the world from you.

Do you think my testimony was
some kind of a mistake?

Hmm. I thought you might be
feeling stubborn.

I had very expensive coffee
this morning

with my new friend
ADA Matthews,

now District Attorney Matthews.

He was freshly appointed when
your friend, District Attorney Diaz,

was fired
for losing my case.

Anyway, uh, Mr. Matthews was so
grateful at his good fortune,

that he's willing to do me a
favor.

He's issuing you a court order

to undo your little
cyber-attack within the hour.

Oh, and I also had
a very nice chat with him

about his investigation into
you and Non Nocere.

Just wanted to make sure he was
giving it his full attention.

It's now his number one
priority.

Be wary of opening with
the Queen's Gambit, sis.

It's such
an obvious first move.

- This isn't over.
- It never is.

- You said a Phantom did this?
- Yeah.

Or as they are originally
known, a Zulian Melatarian.

Originally from a dark planet on
the outskirts of the Roa system,

they were forced to flee, seeking
a new home planet to repopulate.

Unfortunately,
their method of populating

is to infect the planet's
existing inhabitants

by turning them into soulless,
hive-minded, minions.

They were very successful.

Until the Kryptonians stopped them,
imprisoned them in the Phantom Zone.

Their powers were diluted and
they were unable to multiply.

They were, however, able to
continue spreading misery,

making them excellent prison
guards.

But when this alien escaped,
all its powers returned.

It can now infect people?

Essentially, make new Phantoms?

And it only gets stronger,
the more it preys.

Will it possess people like
Silas?

No, I believe that was purely
a means of escape and evasion.

When the Phantoms attack,
first they do so psychically,

paralyzing their prey
with misery.

Then they strike using
their venomous talons.

After a short incubation period,
the victim's life-force leaves the body

and migrates to the Phantom's
nest.

- Life-force?
- In the 31st century,

we discovered a formula to
quantify

the intangible substance
that makes a human unique.

You call it a soul.

Temperature is crashing.

What was that?

That's Silas?

And a Phantom's attack
did this?

Yes.

And with that Phantom still on
the loose,

it could be infecting other
victims.

We need to find that Phantom

and anyone
he may have turned.

M'gann, you and I will keep
searching the city,

scanning for cold-energy
signatures.

We can use Silas
as a baseline template.

Brainy, get into Silas's
social media,

scan for facial recognition.

We need to find
those roommates.

What do we do
if they've already been turned?

Act very carefully.

These progeny

will be just as powerful as the
Phantom, but they're still innocent people.

A remote activated
kinetic inhibitor

can be triggered
from up to a mile away.

Keeping us at a safe distance so
that we don't also become infected.

I'll begin constructing one now

along with some additional
Phantom containment units.

Good. Until then,
we need to locate that Phantom

and keep everybody safe.

Look, I know
you're upset right now.

Not getting Kara back was
a blow none of us expected.

But we can't be ruled by our
emotions. Not now.

I need you to focus
and lean into your training.

Because that's exactly
what it's for,

to kick in when we feel like
giving up.

So we find comfort in doing
what we do best.

Kara is gone.

How can you just march on
like nothing is wrong?

Because marching is the
only way to get her back.

This is all my fault.

My father was safe
where he was.

I never should've convinced him
to leave.

So I have good news and bad
news.

Let's start with the bad news
first.

I like to end on a high note.

Those guys that took your
father,

they're going to sacrifice him
to a terrible creature

that lives deep in Shadow Lake.

- What?
- But

it doesn't feed until it's
lapped the lake 11 times.

Which gives us enough time to
make a plan.

No, I can't waste any
more time.

You really should
let me make you a splint.

Things don't heal
in the Phantom Zone.

Like, ever.

I can push through.

You

are stubborn.

You must've made one hell of a
criminal.

I'm not a criminal.

Sure.

And I'm a princess.

I was sent here by a madman.

And your father? Did this
madman send him here too?

Until yesterday,
I thought my father was dead.

Why?

My name is Kara Zor-El.

When I was younger,
my home planet was dying.

Saving it was hopeless.

My father sent me to Earth

to take care of my baby cousin
who went before me. And I...

I thought we were the
only two survivors

and that everyone else from our
planet was dead.

Including my father.

I can't lose him again.

I think I can help.

What's that?

It's a powerful tool
from my dimension.

I had it hidden on me
when I was banished.

I may not have my powers here,

but... this thing still has
a few sparks.

See, he's okay.

Are you
a Fifth-Dimensional imp?

Do you know many imps?

Just one. His name is Mxyzptlk.

You know Mxy?

That guy is wild card.

He has made some good strides
recently.

At least he had the last time I
saw him.

Yeah, maybe I could use that
splint, after all.

J'onn, I was thinking.

Maybe waiting for Brainy's
kinetic inhibitor to be ready is... risky.

These Phantoms could be
multiplying at very high rates.

If we find them, we should contain
them any any way that we can.

Absolutely not.

Those energy field discs require
close proximity to your target to work.

You heard Brainy.

The kinetic inhibitor
shields us by a mile.

- But the longer we wait...
- I said no.

That's an order, M'gann.

Sorry it took me so long to get
here.

There's a bit of an emergency
at the Tower.

You're hologram multitasking
again.

Your text said you need more
help with Operation Vengeance.

I'm at your service.

How did Lex take our systems
lockout?

Poorly, as expected.

He mentioned Lex's Foundation
this morning.

So I did some digging and it
turns out

the foundation is just a sham to buy
experimental weapons from Kaznia,

but you and I are going to
funnel the money directly

to the Luthor Wing of National
City Children's Hospital instead.

Do you think you can hack into
this account and make that happen?

I'm not exaggerating when I say
that nothing would delight me more.

It's done.

Lex should be receiving lavish
thank you calls

from the hospital any minute.

I have to go.

He started running into the
south wall over and over again.

Like he's being drawn to
something.

I got a hit on the police
scanner.

It says that there is a disturbance at a
warehouse two miles south from here.

It's being attacked
by hostile ghost creatures.

The Phantom has a created new
progeny.

We have to secure that warehouse.
Keep everybody from the area.

Where is M'gann?

She said that she was going on
patrol.

She's already there.

I've got four cold signatures
immobile along the back wall.

And one very large presence.

The Phantom!

M'gann!

M'gann! No!

M'gann!

M'gann!

The four progeny are in
containment,

but their combined dark-phantom
energy is shorting the security system.

I need to fortify the unit,
but I'll need a second Luthor electro...

Her temperature is dropping
faster than Silas's.

The Zulians overwhelmed the
planets they invaded so easily

because the stronger the Zulians
got, the quicker the victims turned.

Alex, get Martian plasma.

A transfusion might slow

M'gann's turn.

On it.

Hey.

I'm sorry I went against your
orders.

No, this is my fault.

I had a hunch Martians might be
more susceptible to their attacks.

Let's just say we both screwed
up.

When you go just beyond this
ridge,

you'll see Shadow Lake.

They'll be keeping your father
in a cave.

Right at the top.

Sure you don't want me to go
with you?

I get it.

Meet a girl in the Phantom Zone

and you're not quite sure
you can trust her.

Why were you sent here?

For the high crime of being
the Mad King Brpxz's... heir.

My full name is

Princess Nyxlygsptlnz.

Wait, you're actually a princess?

I guess we both told the truth.

Not all fathers send you away
to save your life.

Some do it because they're...
paranoid narcissists,

threatened by anyone
who might take their power.

Your father sent you here?

But first, he killed my older
brother.

My older brother was kind,

and the people loved him.

So he had to die.

I'm so sorry. That's awful.

I was next.

Not that I was worth killing.

He never really thought that
much of me.

He used to call me a silly girl
imp.

Useless and not fit to sit on a
throne.

So he had me banished here
instead.

Where I would live
with this...

eternal souvenir
of my inadequacies.

He put it on with magic

and well, I don't exactly have
much of that left, do I?

You're not useless.

You're resourceful.

Look how much you've
helped me already.

And look at you moving
with that crutch.

You're a natural.

Just because neither have us
have our powers here

doesn't mean we can't believe
in ourselves.

And each other.

You don't belong here just
as much as I don't.

So we should get
some sleep.

As we're both going to save my
father in the morning.

I'm wiring the funds as we
speak, Boris. Pokka.

How can the Lex Foundation be
dry?

Sir, I have the Galaxy Gazette
on the phone.

They're hoping for a statement
on the donation you made today

to the Luthor Wing
of the Children's Hospital.

Dona...

Lena...

She drained the accounts.

Gave it all to a bunch
of sick kids.

She's good,
that sister of mine.

Taking something perfectly
illegal and making it legal.

- Sir? The press?
- I'll call them back.

We have to do some damage
control. Boris is not going to be happy

that his money
went dasvidaniya.

Then I will have Otis pay
a little visit to the hospital,

on behalf of my darling...

generous sister.

Thank you for bringing
the new electro-core.

By my calculations, at this
capacity, our containment unit

would be breached in under an
hour.

Well, I'm happy to help.

The upgrade should fortify it.

Lex.

I hear your Foundation
had a very charitable day.

Turn on Channel Five.

Oh, my God.

Preliminary reports indicate that
the cause of the fire was faulty wiring.

When asked for comment, Lex
Luthor noted that his sister, Lena Luthor,

was in charge of all
recent upgrades to the wing.

He set fire to the
children's wing of the hospital

just to get revenge on me.

No! No! No!

Nyxlygsptlnz.

Nyxly?
What's going on?

My magic is back.

Your magic's really back?

- How did you do it?
- I don't know!

I wasn't even trying!
That's the crazy part.

All I could think about was
your encouragement.

And I felt like...

I had to rid myself
of my father's shackles.

Both metaphorical and physical.

And I knew it was right,
because every time

I looked at that thing,

all I could hear was my father
telling me I'm useless.

I finally believed in myself
enough to figure it out.

You had the power all along.

I'm finally starting to feel
like my old self again.

At least, who I think I was.

Who I was before...

I got here.

What do you mean?

Ever since the Phantom Zone fractured,
I started to get these...

flashes.

Like, fake memories.

I mean, they were things
that I knew didn't happen.

But they feel so real.

Like they were from
another life you lived.

Another time? Another reality?

- Exactly.
- I've been getting them too.

You said they started happening
after the Phantom Zone fractured?

Is it kind of crazy that I'm so
glad that you get them too?

This place. It can be very...

lonely.

That's why I rescued you.

I've got a good feeling about
you.

Let's go save your father.

He's a maniac.

This is just sport to him. It's
just another way to beat me.

I hate him. So much. I hate
his face. I hate his voice.

I hate his suits, I hate his
never-ending games of depravity.

I wish he would just die.
I wish we could kill him.

We should kill him.

We can craft the perfect murder.
First, with just the tiniest re-wiring

of his home, we can deliver
a near-fatal electric blow.

He'll be paralyzed but he'll still be
aware of what's happening to him.

From there, we'll finish him.

You choose the method,
he's your brother.

But just make it slow, okay?

After that we'll dismember the
body

and scatter the pieces
across the universe.

I know exactly which planets
have atmospheres with pressures

high enough to decompose
carbon in an instant.

This time there will be
no Lex resurrection.

Brainy, stop.

Okay?

- We can't kill Lex.
- Why not?

You just suggested it.

Lena, you've already done it.

Brainy, it turned me into
the darkest version of myself.

I know it's hard, but you can't
go down this dark path, okay?

You're a good person.

Then what do we do?

What do we do?
What am I supposed to do?

Ever since I removed
my personality inhibitors, I...

I have been overwhelmed
by the depth of my emotions.

The rage?

It's always there.

Seeping out, burning me like
acid and...

all I want to do is help you
destroy him, Lena.

I need
to destroy him.

And if I can't do that, then...

how do I make these feelings
go away?

Brainy, we were wrong.

You can't put your emotions
into little boxes, they'll eat away

at you until there's nothing
left.

And I know it's hard,
but you have to embrace that.

It's okay to feel rage.

You just gotta let it out
and then let it go.

I hate him!
I hate him!

And I'm...

I miss her.

Hey.

Me too.

The Martian plasma infusion
is complete.

It seems to have slowed down
M'gann's transformation for... now.

But it won't stop it.

I've been going through
Brainy's Intel on Phantoms.

It's inevitable.

M'gann's life-force, her...

soul.

Will be lost.

You were so right.

I was so afraid to feel, to...

grieve, that I...

just put my head down,
and I marched.

But I still made mistakes.

I shielded my emotions
and I put M'gann...

in danger.

I've already lost so many
people that I love.

This morning,

I couldn't get out of bed.

Because I did not want to live
in a world without Kara.

So, I know how much you wanna
give up.

But you have to fight.

M'gann? She's still in there.

And even if there's the smallest chance
that we can save her, you have to try.

For her.
For her soul.

You're right.

Wait, you bonded with her soul
to stop Myriad.

I'm not an expert, okay?

But what if there is a way
that we can harness

your piece of M'gann's soul
to stop her from turning?

But...

If we try and it doesn't work

I'll lose what little I have
left of her.

Living with fragments of the
people we love, pales in comparison

to the real thing. Trust me.

All right.

All right.

I'm willing to give it a try.

And I think...

I think I might know
just the thing we need.

Hey, thanks for coming. We need
all hands on deck for this.

Of course. I brought the Obsidian
Neuro-Imager you asked for.

Thank you, Kelly.

Think of what we're about to do
as a soul transfusion.

First, we'll need a Sacred
U'ra'er'run.

It's used for spiritual rituals
in Mars.

This one's been
in my family for centuries.

How does it work?

In theory, the U'ra'er'run
will act as a conductor.

A modified Fal-Tor-Pan as it
were.

Star Trek III:
The Search for Spock?

It'll allow us to re-fuse J'onn's
piece of M'gann's soul to her body.

And, Kelly, you'll neuro-image M'gann,
make sure she's safe during the transfer.

- Okay.
- Brainy will man the U'ra'er'run,

while I cleave M'gann's soul
from mine.

I'll then transfer it

into here to complete the
process.

The transfusion has to happen
at the exact moment

M'gann's soul leaves her body,

but before she starts to turn.

If we miss this window,

she will be lost.

The temperature inside
the tower just plummeted.

It's the Phantoms. They must
have followed the others here.

I've got M'gann. You take
care of those Phantoms.

Brainy. Lena.

Okay, we need to contain them
before they get to J'onn and M'gann.

The Kinetic Inhibitor
isn't ready.

We can't get close enough
to restrain them.

- It's too risky.
- My portal watch...

I can reroute the exit coordinates
to transport the Phantoms

to a sub containment unit
from a safe distance.

I just need something to draw
them all to the same point.

Or someone.

Brainy, will you be my wingman?

It would be my utmost pleasure.

Lena, you get to rerouting the
watch. We'll draw them in.

They're coming through the
elevator. Let's gear up.

Nice choice.

Hey, I don't remember sending
you an invitation.

Extraction complete.

Ready for the next phase.

Temperature dropping.

Lena, how we looking?

I've almost set the new
coordinates.

Stay away from her.

- My blaster is over-heating.
- Brainy, I'm coming for you.

Lena, the portal?

There! Now!

We got his progeny, but the Prime
Phantom seems to have portaled away.

M'gann.

M'gann!

J'onn.

You put children in danger
just to get back at me.

Lena. Are you gonna shoot me?
Again?

You know,
I've thought about it

very seriously,

but the last time I did that,
it didn't change anything.

'Cause look at us. Here we are,
back in our same pattern,

locked in this endless game of cat
and mouse that you love so much.

You love it, too.

You just hate losing.

Well, you can't lose if you
don't play.

I'm leaving Luthor Corp.

For good.

You can't leave.

Who'll "protect" this place

- from the "monster" that is Lex Luthor?
- Honestly?

Your own hubris.

Left to your own devices, you'll
self-destruct. You always do.

You're just upset about the
kids. You're not thinking straight.

I've never been more clear.

Fighting with you has
brought me nothing but misery.

And washing your toxic behavior
out of my life, I'll be free.

I can finally be happy.

I don't believe you.

This is just another move.

I promise you, it's not.

I'm done playing games.

I called the DA
and made a deal.

I leave Luthor Corp and he'll
drop the investigation.

You do realize you won't get a penny
from the company after you leave.

Everything you've worked for
will be gone.

Goodbye, Lex.

You can't just walk away.

You hate me too much.

I do hate you.

I just love me more.

Hey.

So, I almost lost you today,

because I was too busy
soldiering on to open up

and share my fears with you.

I won't ever do that again.

From now on...

we're a team.

We already were.

I'm only here because a copy of
my soul resided within you.

I had a hunch that you'd be a
good one to bind to, J'onn J'onzz.

I'm not bad.

- Hey.
- Hey.

What are those for?

For being my rock today.

I don't know. I'll just...

I was your rock?

I couldn't save anyone today.

That's not true.

You saved me.

You reminded me that when
I want to disappear from the world,

I need to just... get up

and shake myself off

and face the hard things.

Because people that we love

are worth it.

Life is worth it.

When I saw J'onn start to lose
hope today,

it was like
looking in a mirror...

And then I heard your voice.

You were telling me that
even in

the darkest times

we can always find a glimmer of
hope.

J'onn wanted to give up today,

but he didn't.
None of us did.

And we did the impossible.

Move in with me.

I wanna wake up every morning
and tell you how much I love you.

Because life is crazy
and it's unpredictable

and all the really matters is
that we share the little things

with the people that we love,
so...

what do you say?

Yes.

- Alex Danvers, yes.
- Okay.

I see you won your war
with Ms. Luthor.

So, what's next for
the Man Who Has Everything?

I go get more.

Hi, boys.

You know, you really shouldn't
sharpen your knives quite so loudly.

It makes it super easy to find
you.

- Kara!
- I'm getting you out.

Kara. Thank you.

How did you do that?

- Who are you?
- Zor-El, this is Nyxly.

She's who helped me rescue you.

Thank you for your help.

Oh, don't sweat it.

Right, I guess you'll be getting
back to where you came from now.

Yes, you'll be safer there.

Actually, um, I don't think we
should retreat.

I think we should keep looking

- for a way out.
- Of the Phantom Zone?

There isn't one. Believe me,
I've looked.

You didn't know where to look.

My mother built this place.
There is a way out.

It's tied to an anchor
that tethers this place

to the rest of the universe.

But it's in a different part
of the Phantom Zone.

Maybe there's a safer way
to travel through portals

without catching a ride with a

Phantom.

You mean my magic?

You think I could do it?

And then I could come with you

and I could get out of here.

There's only one way to find
out.
