Episodes: Season Overview
More Detail:
Episode Seven of SUPERGIRL, titled “Human for a Day,” shows an earthquake striking National City. After fighting the powerful robot Red Tornado in the last episode, Supergirl has temporarily lost her powers, preventing her from saving the city from the earthquake. After talking with Jimmy Olson about trying to be a hero without superpowers, she talks an armed robber out of stealing or shooting anyone. Meanwhile, Supergirl’s boss at the media company where she works gives an inspiring speech to the city’s panicked citizens. She tells them to have faith and “heed our better angels.”
“Human for a Day” is one of the best, most morally uplifting, most touching SUPERGIRL episodes so far. It teaches the idea that everyone needs to have courage and be heroic. Also, the speech by Supergirl’s boss emphasizes that the citizens need to “heed our better angels” in every situation. Sacrifice, service and doing the right thing are three other virtues the episode promotes. “Human for a Day” has some intense action violence and a couple scary looking aliens. So, caution is advised for even older children.
