The Faithful Synopsis

While the season is officially underway, we are starting to learn more and more about what we can expect from season 3. Today the official synopsis for Supergirl's fourth episode titled "The Faithful" has been released! While many folks have been praising how well the season three premiere went, viewers will also be excited to note that director Jesse Warn (who directed the premiere) is returning for this episode. Supergirl will investigate a mysterious cult that seems to almost worship her while J'onn confesses an old secret. The official synopsis is here:

CHAD LOWE GUEST STARS — Kara (Melissa Benoist) investigates a secretive new group whose leader, Thomas Coville (guest star Chad Lowe), has a mysterious connection to Supergirl. Meanwhile, Samantha (Odette Annable) feels like she’s letting Ruby (guest star Emma Tremblay) down, and J’onn (David Harewood) confesses an old secret. Jesse Warn directed the episode written by Paula Yoo & Katie Rose Rogers (#304).

Agreed: I note for future, I should have read ahead in the tread before affirming my last comment.

Yes, and I understand why people were upset at the time, but people should also learn to accept Jeremy's apology and forgive mistakes. Otherwise what use is Hope, Help and Compassion for all.

Regarding my use of the term "Minor incident", you are absolutely right if taking the incident on its own, some people would be very upset and expect a sincere apology, which they got. However (this might sound cold or insensitive to some, but is not intended to be) when standing back and taking an objective look at the incident, and comparing it to something far worse like the current Weinstein controversy (I sympathise with all the victims). On a bad to worse scale, a few accidental and thoughtless misspoken words by Jeremy followed by his realization of his wrongdoing and an apology, we should forgive and move on.

Now I too would like to move on and enjoy the first episode of season 3 tomorrow.

Quoting sheriek:

We’ll just for accuracy sake only Jeremy apologized. No other cast member has. And just because it was a minor incident to you doesn’t mean it was to others. I do not agree with the hate but it is understandable to me how some are still upset. But this thread is not about that so here’s hoping episodes 2 and 3 are awesome.

I'm very happy to live in that bubble for an hour each week.

Quoting Triggy:
It is very possible that we can live in our own little bubble here and enjoy the ride, which is Supergirl.

I love "book ends" in writing....where we see something said, or done....and then we see the outcome where the heroine is faced with her own words. This is going to be a very interesting episode, and the gravitas of this cast along with Chad Lowe is just going to be off the chart exceptional acting.

Hope we get more Supergirl saves again. That submarine scene in the premiere was epic


Too right starlord, that's the best part of the show, at least for me anyway.

"Kara (Melissa Benoist) investigates", all I need to know from that episode description, Kara doing her job was something I wanted to see more of in Season 3 and to know we'll be getting that is great news, especially when it involves something to do with her Supergirl persona.

Ooooh this episode sounds like it'll be interesting for sure. Kara claimed that she's better than humans in EP.1 and now she's gonna get a taste of being treated/worshipped as a deity. Can't wait to see how it all plays out.

Definately true about this not being the place. My apologies.

I wondered to if that quote she made about being better than humans would somehow come to play in this episode.

When she said better than humans I think she was thinking of human emotions. She didn't want to feel anything so she tried to revert to being a coldly logical Kryptonian.

This one should be interesting Kara did tell Mxy she didn't want to be a god.


I want to see how this contrasts with Overgirl in the crossover. Since sadly in the Nazi philosophy Overgirl would pretty much be considered almost god-like. Probably. Also seeing Overgirl in the crossover might be a way for Kara to realize she needs to embrace her human side more.

Yeah that does sound like an intriguing episode. Chad Lowe has a mysterious connection to Supergirl. Wonder what that will be. Hope we get more Supergirl saves again. That submarine scene in the premiere was epic
