This week we finally get our first glimpse of Krypton in a flashback between Kara and her father, Zor-El, before the planet's destruction.
Since Kara ran away from the farm because Clark is friends with a martian (racist much, Kara?), she has been trying to track down her Kryptonian crystal. Kara gets in over her head and Special Agent Carter captures her in order to extract alien knowledge. During the rescue mission, Clark sees his birth mother through Kara's memories. Lex wants to help, but Lionel makes him cry instead. Chloe finds a lead on a new story: Lana's new terrorist organization, The Isis Foundation.
Helen Slater (Supergirl, The Lying Game) makes her first appearance DC Comics original character Lara-El, Clark's Kryptonian mother.
Christopher Heyerdahl (Hell on Wheels, Peacemaker) makes his first appearance as DC Comics original character Zor-El, Clark's Kryptonian uncle.
