The transgender actress tells EW that Sunday's episode is, "I think, is a lot realer than we normally deal with on the show. A lot of the time we make analogies on the show and we kind of show parallels to the real world in our fictional setting with capes and flying. To get to tackle a very real issue while still having the capes and the flying and everything was really exciting to me, and I was really looking forward to it all season."

CW’s Supergirl (https://www.reddit.com/r/supergirlTV/comments/fjd35s/supergirl_5x15_reality_bytes_post_episode/) has put political issues on the back burner this season, leaving room for the obnoxious Batwoman to swoop in instead.

Unfortunately for us, it’s yet another propping up of the transgender community.
