* RevealingSkill: Kara is reviewing a heavily speeded-up video on her Catco laptop to prepare for an upcoming interview. When William approaches without her noticing and comments on the extreme playback speed, Kara scrambles to pause the video and close up the laptop, then stammers something about being used to "1.5x" playback speed. But we can hear the audio and it would clearly be nonsense to a regular person, so it would seem that Kara was using her super-abilities to follow it. William doesn't press the matter.


Added DiffLines:

* ShoutOut: When the energy dome cuts the hot-dog truck in half and the camera pulls back, you can see a bacon truck on the far right. This may be a shout-out to Kevin Smith, who directed the "Supergirl Lives" episode, part of which was shot overnight in cold, rainy weather at a Vancouver quarry. Smith arranged for a bacon truck to come to the location and serve bacon products in an effort to improve the mood of the cast and crew (particularly Melissa Benoist, who was wearing the superhero skirt uniform then).
