A Lena Luthor (Katie McGrath) and Kara Zor-El (Melissa Benoist) reconciliation scene was something we thought would never happen. Lena finally realizes the sinister lengths Lex Luthor (Jon Cryer) can go and has a grand showdown with him. She goes to Kara's house and apologizes for all her misdeeds. It is taken for granted that the two will finally work together to bring down Leviathan and Lex. Or, so we hope.

Fans (namely Supercorp) are jumping up and down at the emotional scene and are so glad that the two, after sparring with each other for the whole season, are going to work together. However, some think that Kara should apologize to Lena too, though why that should be the case, is inexplicable. Lena has given Kara enough reason to not trust her.

A fan wrote, "THESE TWO ACTRESSES ARE GOLD TOGETHER. THEIR SCENES ARE MAGIC, WHETHER THEY'RE FIGHTING OR LAUGHING AND TALKING IT'S GOLD. #SUPERGIRL #LENA #KARA I LOVE THEIR #FRIENDSHIP."

"Finally! Kara and Lena working together. Mxy said it best! 'There is no might compared to that of a Kryptonian and a Luthor.' And he was right to say that. #Supergirl," tweeted another fan.

Others demanded that Kara apologise to Lena. "Kara better apologize to lena too," a fan tweeted.

"I didn’t expect a Kara so hard on Lena. Now the roles are switched and Lena has to reach for Kara to trust her again in the next season!"

"I’m glad Lena see the light and apologize to Kara. And I can’t blame Kara being hesitant about Lena," tweeted a fan.

Fans are just waiting for a hug between the two. "I'M STILL CRYING! THE HESITATION, THE VULNERABILITY & THE WAY KARA JUST WANTED TO HUG LENA OUT OF HABIT YOU CAN JUST TELL!" wrote a fan.

"I really was hoping that we would see kara soften when lena finished talking, and pull her in for a hug but..." a fan wrote. 

"That Kara and Lena scene at the end of the episode was so emotional I’m going to need a moment," a fan wrote.

Some believe that it is perfectly understandable for Kara to warm up to Lena again...after all she did leave her for dead. "Okay so I’m all for Kara and Lena to reconcile, trust me I’ve been waiting for it #Supercorp but at this point I don’t blame Kara for being pissed. This is the second time Lena has messed with something she doesn’t fully understand bc she isn’t alien... cont..." tweeted a fan.

Well, will they be able to destroy Leviathan and Lex? It remains to be seen. Tune into 'Supergirl' on Sundays at 8 pm on The CW.
