We know we aren't the first to say this, but we have been saying this for a while now! With the incoming Crisis on Infinite Earths looming overhead, we really are in the Golden Age of comic book television shows. Batwoman is picking up steam and for our Girl of Steel, she was in fine form yet again tonight! Ma'alefa'ak's presence was felt in a big way as for whatever reason, J'onn and he can't seem to touch without causing a huge power rift. Just what is the Monitor's purpose in releasing him on Earth-38? Of course it wasn't just J'onn who struggled tonight, here's what also stood out to us:

1. Breakfast in Bed: Both Alex, Kelly and Brainy, Nia were treated to breakfast in bed. They both had a few hiccups but ultimately the couples seem to be going strong! Additionally, James and Kara take a stroll through the city where James reveals he has the opportunity to run the Smithsonian and run for Senator. The two laugh and bring coffee to J'onn where they find him in pain on the floor.
2. A Martian Curse: J'onn and his Brother seem to be afflicted by an ancient Martian curse. It's a pain that is caused when you go brother against brother. Brainy notes that there is a cure in the future using "Q-Waves" but it hasn't been discovered yet. To his shock, Kelly is actually using them at Obsidian North to cure her patients. The team preps to get J'onn the care he needs.
3. Miss Tessmacher: Lena is on a mission to fix humanity. Her goals are about improving the nature of humans and reprogramming them. Of course for her to do so, she'll need a test subject. Turns out it was Lena who kidnapped Miss Tessmacher from last episode and she is going to be Lena's test subject. Talk about revenge!
4. Leviathan Whispered: Lena has Tessmacher in her lab but this isn't the Tessmacher we are used to seeing. She is scared, scared to even say the name of the organization she was recruited by. Turns out Tess has been working with Leviathan since she was 16. Being a genius, she was already in college, but also already in debt. Leviathan offered her a way out and thus bought her service for life!
5. J'onn's Memories & NSA Surveillance: Some of what the new Obsidian Tech can do is map memories. J'onn, who now has M'yrnn's memories, has many memories to contend with. However, some of the memories are missing. They seem to have been removed purposely. Kelly and J'onn are working to discover why and rebuild them. Just then, the DEO locates Ma'alefa'ak. Kara leaves to join them but for some reason, after seeing Kara looking at his screen, William makes a call to an NSA contact and asks that they track where Kara Danvers is going in National City.
6. Traitor: It turns out that Ma'alefa'ak is a traitor. While we don't have the full story yet, we do see that Ma'alefa'ak was working with the White Martians during the Martian civil war. As punishment, he was sent to the Phantom Zone for his crimes. The more J'onn is able to repair his memories the better he seems to be doing health wise. Kara, Brainy and Alex face Ma'alefa'ak and a White Martian in the sewers of National City. William heads down into the sewer to see Supergirl in the fight. Ultimately, William retreats as well as Ma'alefa'ak and the White Martian.
7. Lena is Stealing Obsidian Tech: Andrea walks right into Lena's lab where she accuses Lena of breaking her tech in an effort to steal it. Lena seemed genuinely shocked by the move. The only thing that seemed to go her way was that Tessmacher didn't reach out for help and Lena's machine was able to prove her loyalty.
8. Ma'alefa'ak vs. Supergirl: Ma'alefa'ak is looking for information on how team Supergirl is able to track him. He takes the form of Kelly to see if he can get info from Alex. Alex, however, is able to see through the disguise rather quickly. She calls for help and Supergirl arrives in time to face off against J'onn's brother. It seems that Supergirl has the upper-hand in the fight and she seems stronger but Ma'alefa'ak is quick.  His shape-shifting is fast and he uses it to his advantage. He is only able to get away by throwing Kelly off the roof and Kara catches her.

Final wrap up moments. Alex and Kelly's appartment is saved. Kara saw to it. Kara heads to Catco at night to catch up on her extra work. She has it out with William who she promptly puts in his place. Kelly and Alex share a moment at the apartment and talk about how they want to know more about each other. Brainy takes another stab at being cool and actually showers Nia with poetry. He doesn't always get it, but he is always trying. Lena frees Eve only to tell her that she is going to be working with Hope and Hope materializes in Eve's brain. Kara sticks it to Andrea as well by getting all her work done. William heads to a volunteer at a soup kitchen. Hope takes the body of Eve! DANG!

Just about two days until we get to see the second episode of Supergirl season 5! That isn't stopping The CW from sharing with us eleven brand new photos from the episode after, "Blurred Lines". Judging from the photos, Lena is continuing to keep Kara in the dark about her true feelings! Kara also looks like she is going to be in a few corporate meetings (but aren't we all). Most concerning to us, however, is that is looks like James is seriously hurt! With the character set to make a departure very soon, this is quite troubling! Check out the images below:

Things are heating up for the Girl of Steel and her superhero team. It looks like things are not letting up before the upcoming (epic) Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover! J'onn J'onnz just found out about his long lost family member, but there is no brotherly love between those two in this upcoming episode. Also, Kara has some questions about her new co-worker that lead her to believe he is a "criminal" but what she finds is a shocking revelation. Read the synopsis for yourself below:

SAYING GOODBYE IS HARD TO DO - Kara’s (Melissa Benoist) investigation into William Dey’s (Staz Nair) “criminal” activities results in the shocking revelation he is not who she thinks.  Meanwhile, the conflict between Malefic and J’onn J’onzz (David Harewood) reaches a boiling point.  David McWhirter directed the episode written by Jay Faerber & Jess Kardos (#504). Original airdate 10/27/2019.

WOW, first Batwoman then Supergirl! Might be twice the amount of work for us but it's also twice the enjoyment! Supergirl really set the stage for a complex season 5! Will Andrea Rojo ease her tight grip of the Cat Co employees? Will she be friend or foe? Lena and Kara, yikes! Lena really has started to embrace her Luthor side and has gone even as far as creating a new technological friend. As for Ma'alefa'ak, he is going to be a hard hitting foe! Judging by this trailer for the new episode next week, he's taken Alex's form right? RIGHT?
