To us, when it comes to the dream totem, there is no one better to be able to find such a totem than Dreamer! What stands out to us though is that Supergirl is going to face an old Superman troupe, can she be Kara Danvers when she has the abilities of Supergirl. In many ways, the Kryptonian power set is considered god-like. If Kara is so powerful, how selfish is it of her to live her own life? That will be considered when a giant dream monster attacks the city when Kara is being interviewed and can't go to assist the team in dispatching the monster! Read the full synopsis for yourself below:
NIA CONFRONTS HER SISTER – Kara (Melissa Benoist) lands her dream story for Catco but when the city is suddenly attacked by a nightmare monster at the same time as her interview, she is forced to take a serious look at her life and decide if she can continue to live as both Kara and Supergirl. As Dreamer (Nicole Maines) takes the lead on the search for the Dream Totem, which can vanquish they nightmare monster in National City, she realizes she needs to ask her sister Mauve (guest star Hannah James) for help. Old wounds resurface as the two sisters come face to face. The episode was directed by Eric Dean Seaton written by Rob Wright and Jess Kardos (#616). Original airdate 10/19/2021.

exactly! it's like they're paying "tribute" to season one by just repeating the same story lines
i'm just hoping she doesn't leave them all behind to go to the future. supergirl does that a lot in other shows
Wow - No, I certainly don't want to see either of those endings!
I'm hoping that the series will go out on a high note, with Supergirl still saving her city from all external threats. (I don't see how she could do that if everyone knows her secret identity...)
Because someone says they don't like a person - this does not equate to "trashing" the person. No need to go into how Alex's time was cut significantly - we all agree with that and have mentioned it many times (but always feel free to list out examples. Yes, I do not favor seeing the weepy eyed Dreamer. That's not "trashing" her, it's just says I don't like the fictional character (emphasis on fictional). Yes I like Lena - are we going to go through your rantings every time someone dares to say they like Lena. Are we always going get the impression that you feel your opinion is the only justified one. This forum made all feel welcome - not just the people who agree with you. If this has changed please let me know and I will contact Eric for the new rules.
And I continue to ask, why is Lena getting a free pass here? Lena had an entire season dedicated to her feelings. She got a lengthy couch scene with Kara in the last episode that by all rights should have gone to Alex. Alex got made a bit player in the 100th episode over Lena's ungrateful behind. And now in season 6 she is getting an entirely unneeded new storyline.
Nia's conflict with her sister has always been fundamental to her. But who other than the writers looked at Lena at the beginning of season 6 and through: you know what Lena really needs? A witch backstory and an arc about accepting her Harry Potter powers! In a world where Lena already had a story! It's about defeating her family and turning her back on them.
On this show we have met Lena, Lena's step mother, Lena's brother, Lena's mother, Lena's mother's friends, Lena's best friend from the past, Lena's best friend from the past's father, Lena's best friend from the past's boyfriend, Lena's other good friend Samantha, Lena's other good friend Samantha's daughter, Lena's other friend from school with the alien fight ring, Lena's boyfriend from her past.
By comparison, how many best friends from college of Alex's have we met and how much screentimes have they gotten? How much time was dedicated to Alex dealing with her father's death over Lena with her mother's death? How many ex's from Alex's past have we gotten to meet?
Yet Lena gets a free pass, because the actress is hot. Nia gets trashed when clearly Lena and her extended family is how the show started undercutting Alex and Kara's relationship to the extent that it was almost completely absent in the Luthor centric season 5 and they are still throwing screentime at her over Alex&Kara
I do think this is the crossroad for SuperGirl. If she stops being SuperGirl, she will also have to be able to see crime happening and view it in the eyes of a reporter without using her powers (or use them very little). In essence, she will have to face the totem scenario for courage - the courage to leave SuperGirl behind. However, I think Kara will realize that there are times her strength is needed and I don't think she is going to give up the cape because I think Kara's love for protecting those who cannot protect themselves will always take precedence over her need for a detached separate life. For income, Andrea, if she finds out Kara's identity could pay her commission on all her exclusives.
Another scenario is that Kara becomes the keeper of the totems. She is already the paragon of Hope - could be she resides somewhere where if needed can be called upon but in essence making sure that the Totems remain safe. I just don't want to see her and Alex separated - that was such a beautiful sister relationship.

I'm seeing a lot of speculation out there regarding this synopsis,that it's setting up Kara hanging the cape up and retiring as Supergirl at the end of the series or Kara's identity as Supergirl being revealed at the end of the series(something they did with Superman recently in the comics).
ETA 2
Maybe this was her courage test?She should of shown her courageous vulnerability the night she saved Alex by revealing her whole self as Kara Zor-El Danvers and not get out there quickly and create the Supergirl identity?
