History Headscratchers / Supergirl2015

*** It's called black washing, I think, which isn't taken as seriously as white washing. White washing triggers people while black washing is considered the greatest thing to happen to a character even if they retain the same experiences and personality traits as their white counterparts which should be impossible since there's something called racism.
*** Uh...I can see why this thread stopped now.

** President Baker was working for Lex Luthor. What do you think the odds are that Lex '''didn't''' at least two dozen vaults full of Kryptonite he kept hidden "just in case?"

* So, how long did Eve say she'd been on Lex's payroll? ('''Eve:''' Forever.) Right, so what was the purpose of taking a job at [=CatCo=], a business that, at the time, had no connection to Lena Luthor. If we're supposed to understand that she's been working for Lex since her introduction as a character, what part of his plan involved Cat Grant?

* OK, so J'onn was able to take down Red K!Kara in about thirty seconds, if that. Superman calls him "the most powerful being on Earth." And then he gets beaten up by a human with a robotic arm. And then, when there are a bunch of rogue Kryptonians running around, he seems pretty helpless. Have I missed something here?

*** Not exactly. The episode revealed that the lead only has an impact on Daxamites through some kind of manipulation on the part of the device. The children were poisoned by Maxwell Lord so he could play the hero trying to get Lena locked away or murdered.
*** Not true. Maxwell Lord disappeared from the series after season 1. I think you mean Morgan Edge.

* Furthermore, this theory assumes that Superman and J'onn not only know about it, but would likely use Batman as a positive example of who should have kryptonite...but if Kara is put off by someone she considers a friend having some, her opinion wouldn't be changed by being told that the strange man who dresses like a bat and has not met in person has some. If anything she'd be more pissed off, especially because it would suggest Clark lied to her about destroying it because Batman thought ''she'' might be someone he'd need to kill someday!

[[folder: Lena had a point about the Kryptonite.]]
* Two out of three seasons have had Kryptonian invasions.
* EVERY Kryptonian, including Superman and Supergirl, have been "evil", even.if it was only temporary.
* Supergirl had no problem with Ollie using a Kryptonite arrow against an evil, alternate Supergirl.
* If Lena didn't have that Kryptonite aerosol, both her and James would have DIED. Supergirl wasn't coming to save them.

* So then... Why does Kara think she should be the sole arbiter regarding the use of Kryptonite?

It makes her look a bit hypocritical.[[/folder]]

[[folder: Tell Clark about Argo City?]]
* So, Kara's discovered a city of Kryptonians, Kryptonian culture and found her long-lost mother. She visits twice, taking Mon-El with her each time. Why didn't she think of telling/bringing Clark?

[[folder: The D.E.O. and gun control.]]

** Perhaps the DEO's weapons will simply "replace" the guns with some kind of sci-fi "stun ray" that changes nothing about the fights save for the implication that those that DEO agents shoot are just, well, immobilized instead of injured. [[/folder]]

[[folder: Sam's powers.]]

* Why does Sam become human when Reign is defeated? I'm not saying she should be able to do the extra stuff that Reign can do, but isn't she still from Krypton?

[[The micro-Author Tracts]]

* So, Kara's discovered a city of Kryptonians, Kryptonian culture and found her long-lost mother. She visits twice, taking Mon-El with her each time.

* Why wouldn't she think Clark wouldn't be interested?

** And with both J'onn and Winn leaving at the end of Season 3, will new D.E.O. Director Alex follow her predecessor's plans or will this be conveniently dealt with/forgotten about before Season Four starts? [[/folder]]

** The sheriff got hit in the head by a section of concrete wall before he even saw Kara and was unconscious (and probably concussed) immediately. All Kara had to do was quickly repair the wall (fast drying cement and a little heat vision) and claim she hit him in the head with a random chunk of concrete she found when she saw him pointing a gun at her sister. Viola.

*** No, you don't. You have to be born, in the most accepted and standard interpretation, an ''American citizen''. Assorted Birther nutcases aside, you don't have to be born in the US: John [=McCain=], for example, was born in Panama, and Ted Cruz in Canada.[[note]]Which is why the birther nonsense about where Barrack Obama was born is really dumbass. Not even they question the fact Ann Dunham is his mother, and as she was an American citizen, he was automatically an American citizen when born, regardless of where on the planet it might have been.[[/note]]

* Look, I get it; this show is ''Supergirl'' and Reign is meant to be her villain. The thing is, they don't even give any HandWave as to why Clark doesn't lend a hand. It would be kind of silly if they just said he was MIA, or off in space, or hunting down an escaped Lex Luther, but it'd be better than ignoring that there's another Kryptonian on Earth who could at least attempt to stand in Reign's way.

* She didn't think Clark would be interested?
