Blue Beetle and Robin attack Kara and weaken her. Alex leaves to take care of Lois who is talking with Catherine at the hospital, telling Miss Martian to extract from Kara's mind the information he needs on Superman. At the hospital, Catherine is sedated and Lois leaves to write her story. Father seems to think Alex is being overly emotional due to the "near depletion" of his Kryptonian solar cells. This angers Alex, who destroys Father. Kara arrives, punches Alex, and uses super-breath to instantly incapacitate Blue Beetle and Robin. Alex tries to control Kara's mind, but fails due to Miss Martian not being mind-controlled at all. After she reveals to Alex how she did it, Kara punches him again and puts him down for the count. Kara talks to Lois and reveals Alex's control over Catherine has been broken, but she can't write her story on Cadmus because they struck a deal with the "authorities" to rehabilitate Alex in exchange for keeping their involvement out of the press. The experience has left Kara feeling she's ready to step up if anything ever happened to Superman, and then she flies off to save a jet.
