Added DiffLines:

* {{Foreshadowing}}: While trying to interrogate an informant on Galatea, the Question learns that instead of waking up screaming from nightmares like Kara, Galatea merely tosses and turns in her sleep. It seems like a small detail, but Question dwells on it a bit. It later comes back as important information to use against Galatea, as he brings up [[BreakThemByTalking how it means Galatea secretly feels Kara's guilty conscience because of their psychic link]].

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: In the interim since "Legacy", Hardcastle's been stripped of his commission and discharged from the American military. Whatever value he contributed to the proto-Cadmus operations ended with Clark and Kara's escape from Hardcastle's base. Considering Superman ''was'' the most wanted and hated figure on the planet during that episode, you can't really fault the General's superiors for throwing him under the bus for such a catastrophic security failure.

Cloning Blues renamed to Clone Angst as per TRS, specifically about angst from a character discovering that they're a clone.


* CloningBlues: Initially, Galatea has the upperhand against Supergirl, but she slowly starts losing. It clearly bugs her than she can't put down the original. The conspirators want to pull the plug immediately, but Galatea implores to them that she can still win.

* DontBeRidiculous: When Green Arrow points out that Supergirl's nightmares might be a result of eating nachos before bed, Question corrects him by saying it's actually peanut butter sandwiches, prompting the miffed Stargirl to ask if he goes through her trash. Question's response?:

* InformedAttribute: Galatea is described by Lasser as having blue eyes, and while that would match with her being a clone of the blue-eyed Kara, when we see her, she has green eyes.

Supergirl has been experiencing disturbing nightmares where she is committing brutal murders. She fears that those are so repressed memories so she teams up with Green Arrow and the Question to investigate. This is the episode that sets up the Cadmus arc.

Added DiffLines:

* AwesomeButImpractical: Hardcastle carries a gun with a Kryptonite bullet at all times [[ImproperlyParanoid in case Superman comes to kill him]]. That one bullet is all the Kryptonite he owns, and if he wastes it shooting the bullet at anybody who is not Kryptonian (Green Arrow points it out while playing HumanShield to Supergirl) or is not fast enough on the draw (Galatea melts the gun with heat vision while Hardcastle is taking it out of its drawer) he is completely screwed.


Added DiffLines:

* ImproperlyParanoid: Hardcastle is more paranoid about Superman coming to kill him than Cadmus, keeping a gun loaded with a Kryptonite bullet (and only ''one'' Kryptonite bullet) by his side at all times. He sneers at Supergirl that "[[[FantasticRacism Kryptonians]]] are fickle" and never seems to have given thought at the possibility of [[HeKnowsTooMuch being silenced]].

* PursuedProtagonist: The episode begins with close-ups of running feet, as an evil Supergirl clone follows a scientist who [[HeKnowsTooMuch knows too much about unethical experiments]]. He manages to slow her down with some mercenaries and a robot before being cornered and getting a ScreamDiscretionShot as the clone prepares to incinerate him with heat vision.

* ClothingDamage: Supergirl and Galatea do a number on each other's outfits. Not necessarily played for fanservice, as the damage serves to mirror their outfits (the tear in in Supergirl's shirt gives her a small CleavageWindow, Galatea's leotard becomes a two piece with BareYourMidriff).

* BigNo: Galatea in response to her superiors trying to pull the plug on the fight.



* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: Galatea hesitates when given the opportunity to kill the Question. This hesitation gives Supergirl the opportunity to attack her and turn the tide of the fight. Given that Galatea was poised to kill Supergirl, the Question may very well have been exploiting this trope.
