Myriad (Season 1, Episode 19)[edit | edit source]
Non (Chris Vance) and Indigo (Laura Vandervoort) activate the alien device known as Myriad, which places everyone in National City under mind control. Kara is unaffected, but her when her cousin Superman arrives to help, he falls under the influence of Myriad as well. Meanwhile, Maxwell Lord (Peter Facinelli) has created a device to protect himself and Cat Grant (Flockhart) from the signals. The three of them plot to override the mind control signal, but Non confronts them. To avenge the death of his wife Astra, he orders three of Kara's friends- James (Brooks), Winn (Jeremy Jordan), and Kelly (Carly Nykanen) to jump to their deaths, knowing that Supergirl can only save two of them. Kelly ends up being the unlucky third one. Speaking through James and Winn, Non orders Kara to accept defeat.
Non and Indigo try to use a mind-controlled Lucy Lane (Jenna Dewan-Tatum) to free all of the captured criminal aliens held at the Department of Extranormal Operations, but Kara foils the plan. Indigo then ambushes the Martian Manhunter (David Harewood) and Kara's sister Alex (Leigh) when they arrive in National City. When Indigo defeats the Manhunter in battle, Alex falls under her control. Looking to torment Supergirl, Non and Indigo give Alex a suit of Kryptonian armor and order her to kill Kara.
