DC Week Begins – 'Supergirl' Recap: “Medusa” - RESPECT.

The 4 night crossover event aka #DCWeek began last night with Supergirl. Kara aka Supergirl had a breach enter her apartment and quickly dissipate during her family’s Thanksgiving meal. This quickly ended the event and the group went their ways.

Mon-El ended up at a local bar and ran into the original Hank Henshaw. He followed Hank outside and got into a battle with him. Mon-El ended up losing that battle but was spared from the aftermath that occurred inside the bar. Original Henshaw unleashed an aerosol kryptonian virus known as medusa and used it to kill all the aliens in the bar. Kara then learns the blood Lillian Luthor took from her was used to get inside the fortress of solitude and steal the medusa. A virus Kara’s father created in the event of an attack that would save the people of Krypton but would eliminate all other alien species.

Mon-El contracted traces amounts of the medusa and was brought back to headquarters and quarantined. While this is going on Alex finally comes out to her mother and J’onn tells Kara he is turning into a white martian.

Kara then figures out original Henshaw’s next move and gets into a battle with him. While in battle another breach occurs and distracts Kara allowing Henshaw to escape. Kara heads back to headquarters to check up on Mon-El who finally makes a move and kisses her.

Lena Luthor daughter of Lilian Luthor calls her mother once again and this time offers to help her with her cause aka rid the earth of all alien species. She gives her mother isotope 454 which will allow the serum to become airborne and kill any alien in the city. The two head to a pier and launch a rocket with the serum inside it.

J’onn and Kara arrive on the scene. J’onn takes on original Henshaw as a white martian while Kara goes all Supergirl and chases after the rocket. She is able to grab the rocket but it still goes off. Awaiting their death, Kara and J’onn look to the sky as the serum sprinkles down upon them but nothing happens. Turns out Lena is not a true Luthor after all; she switched the isotope, saved the aliens and called the police on her mother.

Back at the headquarters Kara’s mother was able to reengineer the serum and save Mon-El. Kara confronts Mon-El about the kiss they shared but he doesn’t remember kissing her. Or does he?

Speaking of kisses, Maggie and Alex finally get together.

At the close of the episode a third breach opens in Kara’s apartment, this time Barry and Cisco step out. Barry then enlists Kara’s help.

TO BE CONTINUED ON THE FLASH!
