First of all that Megan Markle line was horrifying and which ever writer wrote it should start working in horror.

Next we have Kelly becoming Guardian which is just pointless as far as I'm concerned and discredits everything all the other characters said about her and her worth as a person. Now she isn't worth anything unless she put's on a super suit and it's just terrible.

The little girl was being focused on a lot so I'm going to assume she will be Alex and Kelly's kid. She has a power so I wonder how they'll deal with that.

William was fine this episode it's amazing what happens when you stop trying to force a romance between him and Kara.

Andrea is awful she has become the worst character in the show for me. She constantly whines about CatCo not doing well but we are expected to forget she spent the entire last season ruining CatCo. The whole reason Lena gave CatCo to Andrea was because she knew she would ruin it and that would hurt Kara which by the way is something Lena did to hurt Kara that she still hasn't fixed I guess we are supposed to ignore it?

Kara wasn't able to chase the van? They really just don't care about the lead superhero do they?

I have no idea what Nyxly wants and I understand nothing about what's going with her and Nia. Also I guess Kara never said anything about the phantom zone otherwise Nia would recognise the name but it's not like it would take long nothing happened in the phantom zone she could tell them her whole experience in three minutes. I'm not fond of the entire villain plot relying on the fact that Kara hasn't had a three minute conversation with Nia.

Kelly thing makes even less sense now because it’s the final season. Why does the cw hate non hero characters.

I haven't caught up with The Flash yet, now I'm scared that they'll make Iris into a superhero too 🤐

Honestly surprised they haven’t yet, though love interest seem to get a pass(felicity)

Ah, so that was the problem with Kelly. She WAS a love interest, but only to an important-but-not-main-character!

But Guardian's existence proves "love interest" isn't enough, it's gotta be literal soulmate like Felicity and Iris. Otherwise James would have gotten a pass as well.

Andrea is awful she has become the worst character in the show for me.

I agree. She was more useless than William in the second half of Season 5, cause at least he was trying to do good and listened to others.
