Supergirl continues to protect the planet. Many miles away in
the Arctic, Dr.Jones is researching how to save our planet from a
climate catastrophe. He wants to spread a message of conservation.
Deep beneath the ice lays an organism that will consume the energy
of everything it touches. It leaches all power leaving only empty
shells in its wake.
Another thing that can zap energy away from you is the act of
keeping a secret. The process of keeping a piece of yourself
hidden. Kara Danvers understands that well. Until very recently few
people knew of her super powers. What if your secret will cause
people to view you in a different way? This is what Alex is
thinking about. What will change if she admits she has feelings for
Maggie?
In this episode we get a very realistic portrayal of what it
feels like to come out as gay. Many of the words the writers use
for our heroes match what I said many years ago. I still remember
how thankful I was to the writers and our leading ladies for giving
us this story. Even though that part of my story has passed I was
glad for the next generation to have this story showing a positive
and realistic coming out story.
As we move through this rewatch I love to see our team grow in
strength together. It was fun to watch Supergirl take down
Parasite. I hope you will join Green Butterfly and Silver Vox as we
continue this journey with our Super Friends. Please remember don’t
let a secret drain the life out of you. It is OK to say what you
are feeling out loud. This is your eye in the sky Green Butterfly.
Have a super week.
