Spoilers Supergirl - Season 1

Question: Does Cat still believe that Kara is Supergirl? It's like once she figured it out, we never heard about it again.
 
You remember that Cat spent almost a decade watching Clark pull the wool over Lois' eyes with tricks just like that?
 
You don't know that.

12 years ago, Clark was Earth's greatest hero?

So, lets say that he had been in a cape for maybe 5 years?

That's almost 2 decades of super threats, and Cat controls the news.

Seeing Kara and Supergirl side by side, if anything, would confirm that they are the same person because they are IDENTICAL.
 
Why would that be necessary? Cat doesn't know Shapeshifters exist.
My point is that if Cat saw Kara and the Martian disguised as Supergirl in the same room at the same time, she would then have doubts that Kara was Supergirl. I don't remember that scene, that's why I wondered why Cat seemed to drop the whole "I know Kara is Supergirl" scenario.

Yeah, it's obvious to us that they are the same person but alter egos have fooled people for decades (people in the story, not the audience.)
 
Back in the John Byrne run of Superman issue #2 I believe, Lex had his experts use numerous means to determine Supermans real identity. When it came back as positively Clark Kent, Lex refused to believe that anyone with that amount of power at his disposal would hide in such an unassuming form.
Cats own ego may well have played into her dismissing Kara as Supergirl when she saw her and MM together.

That exact scene did happen. This actually happened in the very next episode after Cat revealed she'd figured it out.

It's my impression that when Dodge pointed this out previously, you confused this with J'onn pretending to be Kara while the real Kara was down with the Black Mercy.
 
Obviously, their poop is as heavy as a condensed dwarf star, regular plumbing couldn't handle it. :D

Look at how super breath works. They comfortably keep Thousands of Litres of condensed air in their lungs, so obviously they can comfortably keep thousands of gallons of condensed poo in their bowels.

Whatever process is condensing the poo under extreme pressures enough to turn coal into diamonds, might be enough for their excrement to have become understandably dense, but 5 days without direct contact to yellow sunlight and living Kryptonian biomatter reverts to human levels of nonsuperness.

Is poo alive?

If Poo is "dead" how long until yellow sunlight stops enhancing body waste?

(Kal-El's strand of hair staying super in that Museum in Superman 4.)

Considering the risk of secondary "infections", how the water and food tables might be thrown upside down if Kara's DNA is naturally recycled and coming down with the rain, there could be several foreseeable knock on effects.

When necessary, it's only sensible that Kryptonians defecate in space nonearthwardly.

It might be years in between times when they feel the pressure to clear their bowels. Kara might have never pooped on Earth.

Interesting. If that is the case wouldn't she also be compressing her gas. So at some point she would eventually need to fart. Like far far away in the ocean or underwater to absorb the hmm... impact.
 
Kryptonians according to Byrne:

In his run on Superman, John Byrne established that Clark burns 100% of everything he eats for energy.

Complete metabolizing means no waste.

No waste means no pee or poop.

No pee or poop means this conversation is less than pointless.
 
I love the poster -- it's an homage to Superman #199, "Superman's Race With the Flash!" from 1967. I wonder if they'll actually work the scene into the episode like The Flash did with "Flash of Two Worlds."

This will air between the Flash episodes "Trajectory," involving an encounter with a new speedster, and "Flash Back," which reportedly involves some time-travel or alternate-timeline hijinks. Hopefully "Worlds Finest" will fit smoothly into the gap.
 
Hmm, interesting. Sounds like this is part of a longer storyline for Barry wherein he gets lost in different timelines and dimensions for some reason (perhaps as part of his attempt to return to Earth 2?)
