Nope, he's an out and out good guy...your feeling is probably down to the fact that , before the reveal, the show has been a bit ambiguous in order to tease us about who or what Hank is.

Now it's out there that will probably disappear.
well it fooled me, knew there was something wrong with him and thought he was a bad guy, am glad he is a good guy

I enjoyed the episode but I didn't get the bit about the broken arm not needing to be seen to. When it happened and she ignored it I was thinking, if she doesn't get it set properly, when her powers come back it will instantly heal in the wrong position and no one will be able to fix it! I can see how her powers would instantly heal it but I can't see how they would instantly physically shift the bone into the right position as opposed to just fusing where it is the way any other bone not properly set would do.

Ah well, I guess I think about these things way too much

Do you think anyone will notice her broken bone healing overnight? She ought to keep it in a sling for a while, to make it look like she is healing at human rates.

Nobody knew it was broken except the people who know who she is anyway.

So she can just say she hurt it but it's ok now.

They haven't noticed she is Supergirl yet.....she only takes her glasses off.

Another good episode.

Must be watching a different show as the episode was quite dull and what cliffhanger...

I don't know if this is spoiling it but...a certain shapeshifter of the Martian variety has come in handy many times in the comics in this situation.

I was expecting MM to help Kara out on the balcony but looks too late now she's removed the glasses!

The cliffhanger (other than how Supergirl, MM, and the DEO cope with the baddies) is whether Supergirl's identity is at risk from Cat.

I think it's inevitable Cat will play along to keep the inside advantage she's enjoyed so far with her Supergirl exclusives. You just know there will be more in joke 'banter' between the two in the office from now, so at least they're moving things along nicely.

Also glad they seem to be resolving the tedious love triangle with Jimmy telling Winn he is not in competition for Kara, even if Kara may feel otherwise.

I laughed when that superbad hit Hank and realised he ain't human. Those little reveals are a good way of having MM contribute without stealing the show.


Edit: Talking of MM, I saw the advert during Supergirl promoting the Arrow/Flash spin-off show starting soon, 'Legends of Tomorrow'. Shame there's no invitation for Supergirl or MM yet. Nearest we're going to get for a TV Justice League I think.

Enjoyed the latest episode, perhaps not as much as "Human for a day", but good nonetheless.

Torn on the Cat piece and wouldn't be too bothered if there was a reset....makes sense in the real world that her secret wouldn't last but in a fantasy I can live with it if it keeps the current Cat/Kara dynamic.

I was groaning at Supergirls maudlin uncertainty when the show started but wow, when she's in fighting mode now, she's impressive. Thought "uh oh" when they started to destroy buildings, but smiled when she took time out to protect others ...... are you watching Man of Steel ?

Yep the effects aren't brilliant but even the goofy wirework has a charm that CGI doesn't.

Only bum note for me was the huge coincidence of Kats son issue resonating with the mother issue that Kara has. Will get tedious very quickly if Kat has something which relates to every issue Kara has.

But still great fun.

Oh and interestingly I got through this ep without wishing painful deaths on Win and Jimmy, so subtle improvements appear to be being made.

Yes! Cat didn't let me down. She's become one of my favourite characters in this. I hope there's no reset. She's proved herself smart and sympathetic, and her knowing could make Supergirl's life easier, as long as Supergirl stands up to her.

^^ That's why Supergirl has to stand up to her. I think Cat is smart enough not to kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Plus Kara knows enough Cat secrets now for neither to want to expose the other.

I'm thinking cat knowing will be short lived. Does the martian hunter wipe minds?

Yes he does do that and I hope he wipes Cat's mind as this is getting stupid now the amount of people who know she is Supergirl as its turning into Team Supergirl like Arrow and Flash have in their show!

It also annoys me as Superman manages not to get recognised by wearing glasses yet Supergirl does the same thing and her boss works out who she is after 8 or 9 episodes is just stupid!

Then again I was falling asleep watching this episode as it was awful and only the last 10 minutes were decent. Then again I don't understand the point of the hacking storyline in the episode at all!

I didn't see that as resolution - I saw that as Jimmy being a dick, as surely he knows full well that Kara would shoot Winn down.

He would only do so if he found out she knew and I can't see Kara telling him. Also, she would need to prove that she can't be trusted with it as, otherwise, why wipe her and not everyone else who knows?

I'm quite glad she knows. I think it stretches credulity and makes Cat look pretty stupid for her not to know given all the clues she's seen lately and it gives Kara a bit more free reign to dash off and save people rather than constantly having to skive off work behind Cat's back!

Completely agree. wasn`t a big fan of cat at first but she is one i`ve grown to like. there is definitely more to her than this boss who just insults her staff. also we met her mother so can understand why she is like she is.
