This week's Supergirl is a little on the melodramatic side, but what do you expect from former frenemies turned best friends who have now been lying and betraying one another for almost half a season?

making her new Pulitzer Prize winner write an article about who was wearing what at her award ceremony?(Legitimate question-- do people actually read articles like this?)Rojas is also busy in her transition to supervillain as she confronts Lena (Katie McGrath) for some reason?

While the episode will focus on someone from the Cult of Rao bailing and taking an important journal with her, then going to James Olsen (Mehcad Brooks) to get it to Supergirl (Melissa Benoist), the episode still has to keep up with the fall out of last week's battle with Reign (Odette Annable) and the[...]
