Kara is at a loss. No matter how much flying she does, how much she beats on the invisible barriers with all of her strength, she can't get out. Between her brawn and Barry's brain, all their powers combined, there's nothing to be done.

It's devastating.

Even though she isn't happy about it, she's settling in. Barry helped her with a new pair of lead-lined glasses and she's gotten some clothes. After a pretty spectacular crash landing as Supergirl, she's spending most of her time as Kara. Supergirl will be there if people need her, but she isn't the only hero here.

There's a bar near her apartment that does good, cheap food. The lack of money and her incredible metabolism are becoming something of a problem, but she doesn't want to get a job. She doesn't want anything resembling permanence here just yet.

She only plans to get her food and go home, but she recognizes the girl up on the stage. Beth, her name was. She was kind to her when she landed here, and Kara finds herself sitting at the bar as she listens to the songs. She's really good, and Kara finds herself relaxing for maybe the first time since she got here.

Beth comes over when she's done and Kara waves, only to then realize that Beth has never actually met her as anything other than Supergirl. Now, with her glasses on and hair in a messy bun while wearing leggings and a tunic, she looks much different. Which is the point. "Um, hi! You were really good."
