I thought it was a solid episode and loved the two white martian surprise. Actually, it was more of a relief to me because without the second white martian I thought there was just a massive plot hole I'd have to overlook - one white martian being both Winn and M'gann at the same time.
There is one storyline I'd like to vent about (not trying to be negative...just want to gather my thoughts). I really like Kara and Mon'El and am rooting for them to get together. And it seems like eventually they will at some point this season (though probably not for long).
The writers seem to do this thing with Kara's potential romantic relationships where they make them totally one sided to start. Winn was completely in love with her. She didn't feel the same. She had a massive crush on James (refuse to call it love...seemed more like puppy love) but they never built up his side of the relationship IMHO. Kara and Cat's son was two dates so that doesn't really count. And now we have Mon-El. I think the writers have done a great job of showing Mon-El slowly developing feelings for Kara. But other than small glances, laughing at jokes or having her first drink with him they have not really shown her developing feelings for him. In fact, they've had her flat out deny that she thinks of him like that. At they end of the episode they try to spin it that maybe Kara does have feelings for him but they are complicated by her own history. Now, as I am firmly in the Karamel camp I'm willing to buy just about anything so I will gladly buy this...but there is still the part of me thinking "I don't know, she seemed pretty clear that she didn't think of him like that".
P.S.-Don't get me started on the Miss Tessmacher thing. I get it. But the "as soon as Kara realizes how she feels he has moved on" trope is so cliche I was a little disappointed they went there. Probably won't last long...one or two episodes tops.
Anyway, I did enjoy the episode and can't wait for the Luthor-centric one next week.
P.P.S - Almost forgot one of the best parts of the episode - Vasquez!! Can we please get a Vasquez spinoff? Because she is all kinds of awesome.
