Instead of seeing Supergirl tackle a spate of bombings in National City, the episode revolved around Kara Danvers returning home for Thanksgiving and having to mediate a fight between her sister and her foster mother.
She also has to take on villain Livewire, the evil alter ego of shock jock/CatCo employee Leslie Willis.
In an interview with TVLine, the 34-year-old who's married to Magic Mike star Channing Tatum, said the relationship between Kara and Lucy will blossom as the series goes on.
'There’s a warmth to her that’s really hard to fight,' she said. 'There’s an inherent friendship between them that Kara can’t deny.'
