Diane: We're going home! Karma: Officers! (Hospital Guard shot Diane on her shoulder. She lost balance and fell down the stairs, suffering some fractures.) (Chloe is then freed from the nightmare.) Me: Karma is a b***tch. Moral of the Lesson: Don't kidnap somebody to rewrite away your traumatic past. Stop your whining and grow the hell up! It AIN'T worth living a life filled with lies just to satisfy your stupid ego. Other people have done a better job overcoming such traumas from their past lives that they become better angels.
Sameee i love diane even tho she did all this she can kidnap me shes amazing no matter what when she died i didn't want her to gooo shes my best friend
I love your videos. I wonder if it is possible i would like to use this video for when I do sn opinion and observations piece of Kara and Lena relationship.
The entire time Lena was manipulating Kara, Katie made the acting choice to show doubt. Lena hated doing it, every bad choice she made she hated it. Whenever she made Kara smile she felt horrible knowing it was a lie. I always felt like Lena convinced herself she was just venting. I think Lena fully intended on fixing things and thought Kara would be there when she finally calmed down. 5x13 crushed her, actual tears in her eyes when Kara told her she could no longer turn a blind eye and that she would actively pursue stopping Lena. I think Lena doubled down not out of anger, but desperation to prove to Kara she wasn't evil. If she could make her plan succeed, then she could fix things with her head held high and show Kara she never turned bad. Unfortunately Lex showed her that the moment she shook his hand, she went villain.
The line that affected Lena the most was "I will do everything in my power to stop you, just like any other villain". Up until that point Kara was trying so hard to fix things, she kept thinking Lena would come around, that Lena wouldn't go to certain lengths. While Kara was trying, Lena kept thinking that she could turn back whenever she wanted and because of that she kept choosing not to because the ability to turn back was always there, Kara changed the game though. Kara told her she's crossed a line she can't just uncross, she worked with Lex, that was a final straw for Kara. Katie had many options after that line of villain by Kara and she chose regret. Lena may still not have turned away but it was clear from that expression that she knew, she knew she had gone past the point of no return and succeeded in pushing Kara away, like she wanted, and instantly regretted it. I felt the show failed in one area, instead of letting Kara just leave, Lena never would have kept her mouth shut, she would have said something. I think 2 lines should have been added, 2 lines that allowed the fans to know that neither wanted this but neither knew how to fix it. Lena: So that's it then, we've finally done it, we are Lex and Superman Kara turns around looks Lena in the eye Kara: we don't have to be Kara flies off without another word while Lena asks herself how they got to this point. This adds a layer of emotions and didn't make their reconciliation feel as forced as it did in 5x19
So this video proves one thing very clearly. The show had the right scenes to make this happen. You're a good editor, but you can't pull these scenes from your ass. The show created the right moments but failed in putting them into the right context. I'm still not okay with how season 5 played out. I read Supercorp fics daily, so the show is still very much in my mind. I struggle with accepting many of the choices Lena made during that season because of the look Lena had every time she made them. She had doubts every time, she almost chose Kara over Lex until Lilian got involved (which makes 0 sense for Lena to turn to her), and never once questioned what Lex was up to when he wasn't with her. See these aren't things I see Lena doing. I'm still bothered by it
The confrontation in 5x17 was just bad writing, there was no need to make Lena look stupid by falling for Lex's lies again only to have Lena do running back to Kara in 5x19.
A lot of people have issues with how season 5 played out, I'm one of them, but they miss what this all meant. "Protecting people is what I do, you should know this by now"-Kara Danvers to Lena Luthor "Protecting you is what I do, you will know this from now on"-Lena Luthor to Kara Danvers The writers were never able to make Supercorp Canon, though they clearly wanted to. So instead they used double meanings in everything. One of those hints they sent was Andrea Rojas. They made sure we saw Lena had feelings like she did for Kara before. You can't tell me the Andrea thing was am accident by the writers. They used parallels in that entire relationship right as Supercorp was at its largest in popularity. This was to tell us Lena had deep feelings for the same sex before. So as a Behavioral Health Professional I have a breakdown that I think Supercorp fans will appreciate. Lena broke the way she did because the things she was hiding were brought to the surface and not just her denial of who Supergirl was. I'm not saying the show was implying Lena realized she was gay, but they were implying Lena cared for Kara in a way that went beyond friendship. Lena's pain was that she thought Kara didn't care as much as she did. Then Kara did her own speech and Lena realized that Kara was in as much denial as she had been. Season 6 is kind of proof of my theory. Season 6 was primarily Lena helping Kara except herself for who she is. Now this can be taken multiple ways and that was intentionally done by writers who weren't aloud to make them blatantly Canon, so instead they used double meaning on almost everything in season 6. Lena knew before Kara how she felt, that was clear by how different Lena became after she realized how she felt. The rest of the time was her patiently helping Kara come to terms with her own feelings and you can see Kara slowly except these things. Denial can be very very powerful. But if you look, Lena had slowly taken Alex's place in Kara's life and even Alex herself noticed this. You can't tell me Alex would feel okay in letting just a friend take her role in Kara's life. No she felt safe in leaving Kara with Lena cause she saw the connection, the writers made sure we knew Alex knew. All of this was intentionally made apparent to us that Lena had become the most important person in Kara's life and that last scene was Lena telling Kara she excepted herself and all that she is and that if Kara did the same, she would be there for her. Kara taking off the glasses while staring at Lena was a symbol from the writers of Kara excepting herself and an expression of what mattered to her, Lena Luthor.
Both of the Danvers sisters saw something in Lena that she didn't see in herself. Even Alex, who hated how Lena hurt Kara, believed that deep down Lena loved Kara.

The most emotion Lena had shown throughout her feud with Kara was when she realized Kara had given up and saw her as a villain. Up until that point, Lena thought Kara would keep trying to get her back and I think she rather enjoyed being chased. I personally think Lena thought she could change her mind whenever and had most likely intended on patching things up. The moment Kara finally stood up for herself and was done blaming herself for Lena's choices, Lena was crushed. I truly believe Lena regretted everything at that point, pushing Kara totally away was never her intention I think.
1:50 Lena Luthor 5x07: I killed my brother for you, for our friends! Don't you understand what you've done? Regina Mills 1x21: She ripped his heart out, because of you!! Because you couldn’t listen to me!!
