Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Supergirl catchup, this time looking at season 4 episode 8, Bunker Hill. This was the episode that we finally got the big showdown we were waiting for: that’s right, Ben Lockwood finally came face to face with…Manchester Black. These were some of the best scenes in the episode as somehow Manchester has become the intimidating one, having Lockwood and his wife completely at his mercy. You genuinely didn’t know what was going to happen, making things all the more tense. I was actually surprised that the wife made it to the end of the episode alive as I could have seen her dying at a few different points to really push Ben over the edge.

It actually seemed that they had tied up at least the first act of the Children of Liberty story with Ben’s arrest (thank goodness not his death. I’ve seen season 1 of Luke Cage and what that kind of damage can do), but am sure that he will be released from prison soon enough. I can’t imagine the show would get rid of such a good thing this quickly considering how many more episodes they are left in a season. We might just not see him for a few episodes is all.

The craziest moment though has to be Supergirl lifting a whole building up because she was stuck to the floor of it. This was just…I cant actually think of how to describe it but it is something you are not going to see anywhere else! Things didn’t end on the best of notes for her as Lockwood managed to spin the reveal of his secret identity as a positive for him and a negative against Supergirl. This led to the president (who I don’t really trust or like) firing Kara from the DEO for not revealing her identity. I can see both sides of this argument and actually wasn’t sure of what Kara’s decision was going to be until she revealed it herself. Will Alex leave too? Or will this firing only be temporary? Either way Supergirl will just keep doing what she does anyway.

The ending teased the crossover which I will review as a whole one I am caught up with the other shows but already threw me for a loop with the 90’s Flash rocking up again after all this time. I am very much looking forward to seeing that as I do not know anything about it.
