Mom, wait!

Mom!

It's Nia!

Come back, I need you!
Please, wait!

[crows cawing]

[theme music playing]

[upbeat music playing]

-And, go!
-Okay.

She should be queen.

-Uh, Meghan Markle.
-[Kelly] Yep.

-Um...
-Thank you.

Okay.
Pizza, moon, amore.

-Dean Martin?
-[Kelly] Yes.

-Easy.
-[Kelly chuckles]

Typewriters?

-Tom Hanks?
-Yes, babe!

-God, you're so good at this.
-What in the world?

Cheating.
This is cheating.

-[device beeping]
-Time. Time.

-And they win again.
-Come on!

Yes!

Really competitive.

If I didn't know better,
I'd say you guys
were psychic.

Well, we are starting
to finish each other's...

Sandwiches.

-Cute.
-Well, whatever it is,

living together
certainly suits you.

-Aw, thanks. We think so, too.
-Mmm-hmm.

All right. J'onn, Nia,
you're up.

-You okay?
-[Nia] Yeah.

It's just, um, with Brainy
taking Zor-El back to Argo,

I guess I haven't
been sleeping that well.

Well, maybe Lena
could team up with me
when she gets here.

No, she's still back east,
looking for information
about her birth mother.

I really hope
whatever she finds
brings her some peace.

[Alex] Right?

She's really had a rough go
with the Luthor side
of the family.

That is putting it mildly.

So, Kelly,
how's the social work
job going?

Oh, I love it.
But it can be
pretty intense.

I actually have
a new case tomorrow,

with a 10-year-old
alien orphan
with EMP powers.

His only family is
a brother in prison.

That is heartbreaking.

Well,
if anybody can help him,
it's you, babe,

because empathy
is your superpower.

Aw, that's really cute.

Can you two please be
just a little more adorkable?

-I don't think so.
-All right. Come on, Nia.

Let's show these crazy kids
how to do it.

[Andrea] What do
the Super Friends do
for fun?

I mean, do they even have fun?
I want you three to find out.

Andrea, it's not like
there's a Super Friends hotline
we can call.

Well, then do
whatever you have to.

Stalk them. Project a big "S"
in the night sky.

Jump off a bridge,
so one of them
has to catch you.

Then interview them
on your way down.

I don't care how you do it,
just do it.

I... I can't speak
for Supergirl,

but I'm sure
she's too busy saving people

with real emergencies
to do a celebrity puff piece.

And I heard
that they don't even
like giving interviews.

Well, are you forgetting
our exclusive with Dreamer?

And how about
your tete-a-tete with Supergirl

during my press tour
for Obsidian Platinum, hmm?

I had assured her
that our conversations

were off the record.

Well, then get her
on the record.

Every time we have
a Super Friend interview,

CatCo Media tracker
skyrockets.

We're at number three.
We need to be number one.

[snores]

Did she fall asleep?

-Hey. Nia.
-Huh.

Andrea, I am so sorry.

Sleep on your own time,
not mine.

Go home. You're taking
a mental health day.

Now, you two,
you have 24 hours

to get me an interview
with a Super Friend.

Ideally, Supergirl.

Fail and you'll find yourself

writing classified ads
and obits.

Back in London,
I once dressed up
as a pizza delivery guy

to bluff my way

into 10 Downing Street
to interview
the prime minister.

-Did it work?
-No.

All I got were a dozen pizzas
with extra cheese.

[J'onn J'onzz]
Supergirl, I need your help.

-I'm on my way.
-On your way where?

To go pound the pavement.

Okay.

Thanks for coming.

I've been monitoring
the NCPD scanners

about a series
of truck robberies.

Nothing seemed out
of the ordinary until now.

Was this a Metalomite?

They can bend any metal
just by using their minds.

If there's one on the loose,
we'll have to
take care of it together.

Yeah. That's not
from a Metalomite.

-A residue
that turns things invisible?
-It's an Obscuran.

Since when do
Obscurans and Metalomites
work together?

Maybe what they're stealing
is enough to put away
their differences.

So far, they've stolen
computer boards, motor oil,
steel casing.

And from this truck?

-Ammonium nitrate.
-They're building a bomb.

Ms. Hochschild?
I'm Kelly Olsen.

The new caseworker
for Joey Davis.

Oh, yes,
please come in.

Thank you.

Oh, thank goodness
you're here.

I've just been
at my wit's end with him.

I hear Joey's having
behavioral issues.

-What's going on?
-Well, he's picking fights.

He's disobeying
me and my staff,
misusing his powers.

Not only is it unsettling
for the other children,

but I'm just worried
someone might get hurt.

Did his file mention
that two days ago,

he knocked out power
to the entire block?

You know,
Joey's not usually like this.

He's usually such
a sweet, kind boy.

I mean, can you
think of anything
that might be upsetting him?

I blame his brother Orlando.

-In Van Kull Prison.
-Yeah.

-Joey gets monthly
visitation with him?
-Mmm-hmm.

This all started
after Joey last saw him.

I mean, if you ask me,
he's bad news.

I think it would be best
if the state
just stopped the visits.

[girl] Marta, give it back.

Oh! There, be careful.

-Sorry.
-It's okay.

Girls, I've told you
a thousand times.
No running in the house.

Marta took my bread roll.

According to the rules,
each child is expected
to respect

the personal property
of their housemates.

It was mine.

This is a matter
of justice.

-Okay.
-Okay.

Ah, the children wear
power-dampening cuffs?

Oh, that's
a necessary precaution.

I mean,
with ten alien children
under my care,

their abilities
have to be controlled.

When Joey gets angry,
he can overpower his.

I'll help you
with Marta later, Esme.

So, Joey is in his room.

-Come, it's this way.
-Okay.

You know, when something's
bothering me,

talking about it
always seems to help.

It must be hard living here,

with your brother Orlando away.

-What do you know about him?
-I know he's in prison.

And by the look on your face,
when I said his name,

you must care about him
an awful lot.

You don't know
how I feel.

You could tell me.

I have a big brother, too.

His name is Jimmy.

And when we were kids,
he would do
all kinds of crazy things.

Like... he would climb up
on a roof
and jump off of it.

One time, he took
our dad's car for a ride.

My brother is
the bravest person I know,

and I still worry about him.

Because that's what you do
for people you love.

There's something wrong
with my brother.

Why do you say that?

Last time I saw him,
he had dark circles
under his eyes.

We get them
if we use our powers a lot.

We get sick
if we use them too much.

You think your brother's
using his powers in prison?

For his job.

I don't know what you call it,
but he gets to go out to do it.

He's in a work-release program.

He told me not to worry,
but I can't help it.

He took care of me
after our mom and dad died.

He only robbed
that store to get money

for a place for us to live.

He says
we'll be together again
when he gets out.

But what if his job
makes him really sick?

What if he dies?

I am going to do all that I can
to help you and Orlando.

You know, a good friend of mine
knows the warden at the prison.

She might be able to help.

-I don't wanna
get him in trouble.
-It's gonna be okay.

I promise.

According to the manifest,
that truck was carrying

over 5,000 pounds
of ammonium nitrate.

That much explosive
could level
a 50-story building.

Well, we can use the residue
that we found

to track the Obscuran
energy signature,

and hopefully,
the bombmakers.

Hey.

Are you okay?

The alien orphan Joey
that I was telling you about?

Yeah?

I'm worried.
The poor kid's been acting out

because he believes
his brother is overusing

his EMP powers
at his work-release program
at the Van Kull Prison.

You mean
the Second Chances program?

I did an article on that
when it first started.

That's why I'm here.

Joey says
that if his brother Orlando
uses his powers too much,

he could die.

When I interviewed the warden,
the program seemed amazing.

They contracted
with a clothing manufacturer

to give jobs
to incarcerated workers.

From what I saw,
they were treated really well.

So, if Orlando's
making clothing,

then why would he need
to use his EMP powers?

Is it because
he's being forced to?

Or maybe he's using them
for some self-serving purpose?

Either way, something bad
is happening to Orlando,

and it's affecting Joey.

I need to find out.

Can you help me get in
to talk to the warden?

Yeah, of course.

-Can you guys handle
the truck robberies?
-[J'onn J'onzz] Sure.

If we discover something,
we'll call.

Mom, I am going to reach you.

Mom. Mom!

It's Nia!

[grunts]

I've got this.
You don't have to
wake yourself up.

-Don't be scared.
-Who are you?
What do you want?

My name is Nyxly.

Wait, I've seen you before.

You were in my dreams.

Not exactly in them.

I crashed them,
and not on purpose.
I'm stuck here.

I'm so grateful I found you.
I need your help.

And you need mine.

What do you mean
you crashed my dreams?

An evil man took my powers
and banished me
from my dimension.

In my weakened state,
I couldn't cross the barrier
into your real world,

and I got trapped here.

Only Naltorians
are supposed to be able
to enter the dream realm

in physical form.

Technically,
not only Naltorians.

I'm from the 5th Dimension.

-You're an imp.
-An imp stripped
of my powers.

Well, mostly.

I still have
some small remnant
of magic left,

enough to sense you.

It took me ages to find you,

but I knew that you were
my only chance
of getting out of here.

What makes you think
I can help?

On occasion,
Naltorian women have been known

to manifest their dreams
in the real world.

That's nothing to mess with.

It's dangerous to interfere
with the laws of the universe.

I get it. But sometimes,
you have to take
a chance, Nia.

I would never ask you
to take a risk alone.

If you help me,
I will go to great lengths
to help you.

I don't know
what you're talking about.
I don't need any help.

I don't mean to pry,
but I have seen
your dreams, Nia.

You miss your mother.

You need to see her,
and I know exactly
how that feels.

I desperately miss
my brother and my father.

I have to get home
to see them.

We can help each other, Nia.
If you get me
out of this dream realm,

I will have enough power
to bring your mother
back to life.

Bringing someone back
from the dead, that's...

a serious infraction
of universal law.

I know imps are powerful,
but I didn't know
they could do that.

We can.
With some limits.

I can only bring
your mother back to life
for exactly one day.

-Really?
-In a snap.

You and I have
such similar needs,

to be reunited
with our families.

It's destiny
that we help each other.

-What do you say?
-I... I...

[screeching]

[breathing heavily]

Thank you.
Hi, Warden.

Thank you so much
for seeing us.

Always a pleasure
to see CatCo's star reporter
and her friend.

What can I do for you today?

We're here about the prison's
Second Chances program.

There's nothing I enjoy
talking about more.

We're literally
changing lives.

Thanks in no small part
to you, Miss Danvers.

Since your article came out,

donors and corporate sponsors
have been beating down
our door.

That's great. Most people
just see prison
as a place to punish people.

They see the crime
and not the person.

Not us. We respect our workers.

We teach them new skills,
which helps them
reenter society

as valuable
and productive members.

Which is why I was worried
when I heard from Kelly.

Uh, she has a young client
who has a brother
in the program.

-There might be a problem.
-Yeah, he's worried
his brother is

being injured
overusing his EMP powers
on the job.

We don't know
if he's a victim
or an instigator.

I can't imagine a scenario
where either one of those
is true.

So, there have been
no incidents
involving EMP powers?

All aliens are continuously
monitored on the work site,

and if anyone
had used their powers,
I would know about it.

-What's the worker's name?
-Orlando Davis.

Well, I promise you,
I'll check into it.

And if there's anything
to the boy's concerns,
I'll take care of it.

Could we see Orlando?
I would love to tell Joey
that we did.

I'm sorry.

All visits need to be requested
two weeks in advance.

In your next article,
you could shed some light

on all
the bureaucratic red tape
around here.

[chuckles]

[Kelly] You sure
this is gonna work?

You do remember I'm Supergirl?

Hi.

Kara Danvers and Kelly Olsen
to see Orlando Davis.

Okay.

[typing]

Jeez. One moment.

[typing rapidly]

Sorry. What was
that name again?

Uh, you know what?
Actually, we made a mistake.

Uh, thanks, but we're gonna
come back another time.

Okay.

-What's wrong?
-Orlando is already
on his way to his job.

[officer] Orlando Davis.

Oh, there's Orlando.

[officer] Keep it moving.

I said look alive, Orlando.

[Kelly] For someone having
all of the opportunities

the warden touted,
he doesn't look very happy.

No, he doesn't.

Good thing I can fly.

J'onn?

I tracked
the Obscuran energy signature
to this spot.

Chances are
the Metalomite is there, too.

And a Toradine and a Dynamorph.

That van just pulled
those incarcerated aliens

from a work-release site.

One of them is
the brother of the orphan
Kelly was telling us about.

Why would they be here?

[Orlando] It's crazy
doing this in daylight.

[officer]
It's what the boss wants.

Anyone tries to stop us,
you boys can stop them.

No. No, you can make us steal,
but we don't hurt people.

You do as you're told,
or the one getting hurt is you.

They're being forced
to steal against their will.

They're building
a dirty nuke.

-It's Supergirl!
-Pull out, now!

-[prisoner 1] Let's move.
-[prisoner 2] Hold up.

-Hurry, hurry.
-Start the van!

[Supergirl grunts]

[groans]

All right. Hit it!

The whereabouts
of the five alien workers
are unknown at this time,

but we believe that
while they were making
their escape,

they kidnapped
Van Kull officer Larry Chapman.

That officer
held them at gunpoint.

We need to find them.

Well, it's obvious someone
who's infiltrated
the prison program

is using Orlando
and the other workers
for their alien powers.

Exactly.

So, we have a Metalomite
who can warp metal,

a Toradine
who creates force fields,

an Obscuran
who has cloaking abilities,

and a Dynamorph
who can unleash energy blasts.

And Orlando is a Zeltarian
who can produce EMPs.

I promised Joey I'd help,

and all I did was
put his brother in danger.

They were threatened.
I should have been able
to save them.

The only people to blame
are those behind all this.

Well, whoever they are,
if they're dead set

on getting their hands
on a dirty bomb,

then they're bound to target
other sources of uranium.

Well, we can't
let that happen,

or they'd have
enough material

-to make 20 bombs.
-Contaminate the whole city.

We can start by following
all five alien
energy signatures.

Right now,
there's no trace of them.

They must be shielded somehow.

I don't know,
I'll look for ways around it.

While you do that,
I'm gonna head back
to the prison.

Warden Kote
needs to know the truth.

I should have run Joey's
concerns about Orlando

through the proper channels.

I only made things
worse for everyone.

It was because of you
wanting to help Joey

that we found out
about Orlando and the others
being exploited,

which then led us
to finding out
about the bomb.

The system is stacked
against them,

and I don't know why I thought
I could do anything about it.

The Kelly Olsen
that I know and that I love,
she never gives up.

When we rescued Kara
from the Phantom Zone,

do you remember
when you asked me

if I was sure
if I wanted to go?

Yeah, I remember.

I was afraid that I wouldn't
be able to help.

So, my Fear Vision,
I was attacked

by Phantom versions
of you and the others.

Telling me
that I would never...

be able to compete
with everyone's powers
and intellect.

That I was weak.

Maybe it was right.

I don't believe that.

You have to say that,
you're my girlfriend.

No, I don't.

So... tell me
how the Fear Vision ended.

[sighs] I, um...

I realized that even
if I couldn't fight
your Phantom selves,

maybe I could
protect you instead.

So, I found
a piece of shrapnel.

It reminded me
of Jimmy's Guardian shield.

Hmm.

And I used it
to get between all of you
and the Prime Phantom.

And, yeah, it worked.
I brought you back.

Well, of course you did.

Because you are strong,
and you are smart,

and you are powerful.

Hey, we all have doubts,

but it's when you thought
that you could protect me,

you took a risk.

And it's only
when we take risks

that we can really find out

who we're meant to be.

And Joey...

is very lucky to have you
in his corner,

because you are a protector.

And you'll always
be there for him.

Come here.

I don't believe it.

I'm sorry,
but there is corruption

in the Second Chances
program.

The idea
that anyone would abuse
the workers like that,

it's unconscionable.

That is why
we have to figure out

who could have
infiltrated the program.

And I'm telling you
that that's impossible.

I personally put strict
safeguards in place.

Look, I know this is hard,
but this is so much more

than just a series
of truck robberies.

Whoever's orchestrating this
is building a dirty bomb.

-Where did you hear that?
-Supergirl told me.

That's why
you needed to know
the truth.

I want to give you the chance
to go on the record.

You can't write this story.

Without proof,
they'll shut my program down.

Don't let the actions
of a small group of criminals

ruin the good we're doing.

-Warden, I--
-Kara, I promise you

that I will do
a full internal investigation

once the alien escapees
have been captured,

and once Officer Chapman
is found safe.

I don't understand
why you can't just
see the truth.

You just need to drop this!

I'm sorry.
This is just a very
tense situation

involving dangerous alien
criminals.

You can do a story
after this all turns out

to just be a misunderstanding.

Wait. Wait. Mom!

Mom, I need you!

[yelps]

Mom!

[Nyxly] Nia. You're back.

Thank goodness.

I'm sorry our conversation
got interrupted
by that vicious owl.

We were just about
to make a deal.

Thanks. But no thanks.

-I don't understand.
-Nyxly... I don't know you.

But I do know
that imps on the whole
are not to be trusted.

How would you like
to be judged
by your species, Nia?

-Aren't you a hero on Earth?
-Yes, but--

I can grant
your dearest wish, Nia.

And you can end this cycle
of tormented dreams,

and finally see your mum
for 24 hours.

-Don't you want that?
-Of course I do.

Then let's help each other!

-[owl hooting]
-[Nyxly groans]

That monstrous bird.

Get out of here! Shoo!

[owl] The wise understand
by themselves, Nia.

Fools follow the words
of others.

Don't listen
to that stupid owl.

Owls will bring to light
what is in the dark.

-They're symbols of truth.
-Nonsense.

That is
a ferocious bird of prey
who's looking at us

like a pair
of tiny little tasty sparrows.

She's trying
to divide and conquer us, Nia,

so that she can devour us
for breakfast.

I don't think owls
are that devious.

My mother revered them.

[owl] Wisdom lies
not in seeing things,

but in seeing
through them.

Oh, shut up, you ghoul.

Nia...

[scoffs]

I have been
around the universe,
and that creature is evil.

You saw how she attacked me.

Don't let her mess
with your mind.

Please, let's get us
out of here

and get you reunited
with your mum.

I don't know.

You can trust me.

[owl screeches]

Ugh! Leave us alone!

[William] What are you
working on?

I'm trying to find out
as much as I can

about Warden Kote
at Van Kull Prison.

Your friend
doesn't still work
for the CIA, do they?

Yeah. Why?

You're looking
for a deep dive
on the warden?

Would you mind asking?

Sure. Happy to help.

Oh, good.
Then help me
understand this.

I gave you two an assignment.

Get me an interview
with one of the Super Friends.

Now, two of them
were at the same place
at the same time,

and where were you?

-Not there.
-Andrea, we can actually--

No, no, no.
I don't want to hear
your excuses.

Not only did you miss
a golden opportunity
to get me what I want,

but CatCo was scooped
by every other news outlet.

I can't bring myself
to look at our media tracker
ratings after this.

Who cares
about the ratings?

What?

I, uh...

You keep saying
you want CatCo to be

the most trusted
source of news
in National City.

Yes. Of course I do.

Our readers need hard-hitting
and truthful reporting

-now more than ever.
-Then let us do our job,

instead of making us chase
the Super Friends around.

They aren't the story.

For any of us to do our jobs,
CatCo needs eyeballs,

and the Super Friends
can get them for us.

The more we have,
the better our ratings,

the better our bottom line.

And that's the reality.

I suggest
you remember that.

Now, back to work.

[sighs]

[Joey exclaims]

[Ms. Hochschild]
Joey... Joey, stop this.

Joey, I'm warning you.

[groaning]

-[Joey] It hurts.
-What are you doing?

I'm suppressing his powers.

He's in pain.

No, he is fine.

[groaning and panting]

What on earth
are you doing here?

I came to check on Joey,
and I am glad I did.

He is obviously terrified
about his brother,

and this is how you treat him?

You may not agree
with my methods,

but it is my job
to keep this place in order,

and to teach those kids
that actions
have consequences.

I wonder how your bosses
would feel about
your teaching methods

if they ever saw
the security videos.

Do you think anyone has time

to look at
what goes on in here?

If you're not gonna
protect these children...

I will.

Listen, Ms. Olsen.

I have been working
in this system

longer than
you've been alive.

So, go ahead.
I wish you all the best.

So, from what I see,
there is no way
the warden could afford

a luxury beach house,
luxury cars,

and first-class travel
on his prison salary.

No, but he could by having
a secret offshore account
in the Caymans.

My buddy in the CIA
just sent me these.

[sighs, clicks tongue]

I mean, he's been depositing
large sums of money
on a regular basis.

Well, I guess
what they say is true.

-Follow the money.
-I'm sorry, Kara.

When you wrote your article
on the work-release program,

I remember how highly
you thought of him

and what he was
trying to accomplish.

Yeah, I was a fool
for believing in him.

It's not your fault
he's corrupt.

Power can bring out
the best in some people,

and the worst in others.

Look, there's very little
oversight for private,
for-profit prisons.

I'm sure
that made it easier
for the warden

to become vulnerable
to outside influences.

The question is,
who's doing the influencing?

The prison contracted
Summerlin Industries

for the work-release program.

I traced it through two dozen
different subsidiaries
and tax ID numbers.

-Yeah, no doubt,
shell companies.
-Mmm.

The trail dead-ends
with an LLC

registered in Panama
under the name
Cypress Holdings.

I know that name.

Yes. I was looking
into Cypress Holdings

while you were away
with Cat Grant.

I had good reason
to suspect it had ties

to Mob boss
Bruno Mannheim's Intergang,

but never could prove
a direct link.

That's it. Cypress Holdings
is a front for Intergang.

William, you're brilliant.
I gotta go. Thank you.

Sure.

Kara Danvers,
she came to see me again.

It is only a matter of time
before the truth comes out.

Maybe you should bring
those workers back
and we can make up a story

-and go back
to the way it was.
-It's too late.

Nobody said anything
about a dirty bomb.

It's what Mr. Mannheim wants.

We're going after
the uranium again tonight.

When the job's done,

you don't have to worry
about the truth getting out.

The alien workers will be dead.

You were right, Kara.
I searched all known
Intergang hideouts.

Picked up an energy signature.

They must be using it
to conceal Orlando
and the other aliens.

That's their van.

[Officer Chapman] Listen up.

After tonight, your services
will no longer be needed.

I'll deactivate your
power-dampening cuffs,
and you'll be free.

You're just gonna let us go?

You have my word.

Okay, time to move out.

No one's going anywhere.

You heard the man.

It's okay.
You're safe now.

We know
that you've been forced
to use your powers to steal,

that you didn't kidnap
Officer Chapman.

We're gonna take you
back to the prison
and explain everything.

Let's get you out of here.

We're getting out of here,
but not with you.

[both grunting]

[Supergirl] Please,
we just want to help.

Like we haven't heard
that before.

Let us pass!

He's collapsing the building!
I've got it.

You want to take us back...

to explain,
to make it all okay?

You don't get it.

The system doesn't care.
It never has.
And it never will.

You're right. I don't know
what will happen.

But I do know
that if you decide
to go on the run...

that system
will never stop
hunting you.

You will never know
a moment's peace,
and neither will Joey.

What do you know
about my brother?

That you have
shared hardships,

that you love
and need each other.

I begged Social Services
for help...

but they didn't listen.

And who's gonna rent a place
to a guy making minimum wage?

So, I tried to rob a store.

When you're desperate,
you'll do anything.

In prison,
I believed what they said...

that the work-release program
would be the answer

to Joey and me
being together again.

It turned out to be
another lie.

Face it, okay?

No one wants to help
people like me.

People like them.

I'm an alien
on this planet, too.

I've seen
how hard life can be

for the people
that the system
isn't designed for,

how that system can fail
those less fortunate.

But I promise you,
if you come with me,

I will do everything
in my power

to make sure
your voices are heard.

Please.

Please...

don't let us down.

I won't.

Tonight, Van Kull Prison warden
Wyatt Kote and others
were arrested

in connection
with an alleged plot

to use aliens in the prison's
work-release program

to commit crimes
for the notorious
Intergang Mob syndicate.

Here with me to discuss it
is Supergirl.

Thank you for joining us.

If these allegations
are true,

how could something
like this happen?

Well, clearly,
the system is broken

when those in power
are allowed

to abuse that power
entrusted to them.

I'm angry that criminals
were allowed to infiltrate

a worthwhile program
like Second Chances,

but I'm glad that it will
continue with new oversight.

And what do you think
should be done
with the alien workers?

They should be
shown leniency.

Now, that's
the kind of reporting
I'd like to see.

Great job, William.

Kara, you should take a page
out of William's book.

Okay. Everybody,
back to work.

[William] Just so you know,
Supergirl came to me
at the scene.

-It was dumb luck
I was the one.
-I'm glad you were there.

Well, Andrea is happy.

Yeah, but she still
doesn't get it.

I mean, this is so much more
than an interview
with Supergirl.

This is about
telling the public

the truth about issues
that matter.

Well, we shined a light
on what was happening
at the prison,

we exposed the abuse,
and we stopped
an Intergang crime spree.

What about the abuse
that's happening
in other places?

We will root them out
and report on them, too.

When? In between our stories
about the Super Friends'
favorite hobbies?

Okay, don't hate me
for saying this,

but I think Andrea
has a point.

When Supergirl speaks,
people listen.

If an interview with her
could make people
hear the message...

I'm all for it.

I don't know how
that security video

ended up
in my supervisor's inbox.

It's obviously a fake.

I mean, somebody must have
hacked my computer.

Is she really
gone for good?

Yes. You all deserve
to be protected

by someone
who cares about you.

And I have one more
surprise for you.

Orlando!

Come here.

What are you doing here?

The judge pardoned me,
said it was unfair

what they did to me
and the others.

Which means I'm out.
I'm never going back.

[mouthing]
Thank you.

Oh!

You did all of this,
didn't you?

Sorry, Esme,
I, um... I don't know
what you're talking about.

Don't worry,
I'll keep your secret.

This house needed
a guardian angel.
And now, we have you.

-Hey.
-Hi.

Rough day?

It definitely started that way.

-Thank you.
-Of course.

But for the first time...

in a long time...

I felt completely exhilarated.

I felt empowered.

And today, I saw
I made a real difference.

I told you,
the Kelly Olsen that I love
never gives up.

I know
what I need to do, Alex.

This community
needs someone who is
willing to fight for them,

even when the system
isn't listening.

Yeah.

It's time to pick up
where Jimmy left off.

I want to be the new Guardian.

I have something for you.

What?

Okay.

What is this?

[Kelly chuckles]

Okay.

Open it.

The moment I saw you use
that shield during Crisis,

I had a hunch
that this might be coming.

So, I reached out to James.

And he sent this for you.

I don't think there
is anyone better fit
to be the next Guardian.

I don't know what to say...

except I love you.

Yeah, we'll see how you feel
after we start your training.

[both laughing]

Hey.

[sighs]

-To Guardian.
-To Guardian.

-Mom.
-You came back.

Do you really just want
to go back
to the 5th Dimension?

As soon as I get out of here
and replenish my powers,

I'll go straight home.

And if I help you,

we have a deal.

And you bring my mom back
for 24 hours.

Imps never break their deals.

Are you in?

[owl hooting]

I'm in.
