Supergirl season 2’s sixth episode, “Changing,” (https://www.yahoo.com/movies/supergirl-recap-coming-145700970.html) brought the payoff to several storylines: Alex came out of the closet (https://www.yahoo.com/news/m/9e35ed58-c8d8-3b85-b7c6-714657713b47/%E2%80%98supergirl%E2%80%99-season-2.html) to her sister (which, ironically, went better than coming out to the object of her newly-awakened affection); James Olsen took his new armored-vigilante identity out for a field test; and Mon-El tried the selfless-superhero life on for size. As part of the episode’s main “villain of the week” story, an Arctic-based climate researcher had an unfortunate encounter with an extended homage to John Carpenter’s The Thing and found himself transformed into a environmental-activist version of classic Superman foe The Parasite… which might be the most “Peak CW” thing to happen on the series yet. For those not immediately familiar, The Parasite is a big purple alien energy-vampire who can suck the life-force out of any being - making him one of the few DC Universe villains dangerous to Kryptonians and Martians in hand-to-hand combat.
