| Synopsis | Supergirl is smoking, and talking to Boomer, together on a date. He keeps asking her questions, like an analyst. He asks her when she started smoking; she says just now, but she finds it disgusting, and is immediately quitting. She flashes back to her recent confrontation with Power Girl, after returning from Kandor. Power Girl wants to know why they suddenly left, and she found herself back at JSA headquarters. Kara insists she just quit as it wasn't their fight. Power Girl suddenly understands that Saturn Queen gave her information about Argo City, but Supergirl just keeps insisting that they never should have gotten involved. Power Girl gives up, and leaves. At a nightclub with Boomer, she flashes back again, this time to Themyscira, where she spent some time with Wonder Girl. She then plays pool with Boomer, and finds out that his father was murdered. She then flashes back to time at the Kent farm talking with the Kents. She and Boomer move their date to the top of the Empire State Building, where he's looking into apartments with binoculars, and finds a wife-beater, who Supergirl takes out with an almond. She flashes back to Krypton, where her father is struggling with her mother, and he tells Kara to kill her. She needs money for their date, so she goes to the Batcave, and sells a Kryptonian "Sourcedoc" medical device to Batman for one million USD, so that she will never have to worry about money again. He tells her that Superman is worried about her. After dinner with Boomer in Japan, they are about to end their date, when a truck is about to run over a girl chasing a cat. She stops the truck, and the girl asks if she is Supergirl, and if that's her new costume. Supergirl asks her if she likes it, and she says "No, Supergirl shouldn't wear black. Too dark." Supergirl returns home, and Wonder Girl appears after a blowout with her mom, and they comfort each other. |
