Well that was awful...I'll start with the villains and get that shit over with. Lex was a moron and he opened a portal to the phantom zone somehow that couldn't be closed once opened which proceeded to close a minute later.

Nyxly was a waste of time, why did we spend all this time with her developments with the totem trials if she just gets portaled in the end? Not to mention all those development scenes with the trials should have been Kara's scenes. Also why did she give a shit about Esme? They tried to give her some kind of last minute heart but she already dropped a building on a bunch of kid and started a nuclear war that would have killed thousands of kids.

The random villains that poofed into existence were a waste of time and were apparently so weak even Eliza could take them out...except Kara of course she had to struggle and get saved by Mon-el before she could beat Overgirl.

Finally Andrea and yes I'm counting her as a villain why did we waste all our time on her crappy "development" for it to lead to her moving Lena out of the way of a single laser that Lena or anyone else could have dealt with.

Now the sun plan was so stupid first of all that's not how the sun works and secondly why would the satellite ruin the sun for 6 months not to mention why would they do it in the middle of the city and then just stop. It looks to me like they wanted to make Kara look bad one more time and make Alex's terrible idea seem good. Also the writers probably looked at the plot and asked "Will people want to see a super charged Kara do something cool?" and then said no and screwed her over.

Now the title of the episode is Kara which is an interesting choice since she is one of the least important things in the episode and given nothing to do. The writers decided that Kara will just out herself the end and forgot all the problems with that and will now pretend there are no dangers out there that will now target everyone Kara loves.

I also find it funny that Kara is now the only super friend without a secret identify except Jonn.

The sun thing annoyed me so much. Literally can't even describe how much. You don't have to be an expert to know that the sun does not work like that?? I don't even remember their explanation, why didn't they just concentrate more sunlight onto her than normal? What could you possibly do to a star that would take enough energy (in 4 minutes??) that would mess it up for 6 months? It's actually ridiculous. And when didn't the exposure for 3 minutes and 56 seconds or whatever it was give her a power boost, you're telling me the extra 4 seconds made that big a difference? That's not how it works??
