- [cracking]
- [Supergirl] Neither can I!

I am on cuteness overload!

[screams]

Okay, this was
not my intention,

but I just wish you would
have let me help you!

Whoo-hoo, make way!
Where's that pizza at?

[Jessica]
There is no pizza, Kara.

I apologize
for the chicanery.

Chica... Chicanery?
What is that, French?

All right, fine! I'll eat whatever.
I'm starving.

No, I mean there is no food.

I want to talk to you
about your anger problem.

Ugh, not this again.

Look, the only person who
has a problem with my anger

is a-you.

[breaking news tune plays]

Thanks to Girl Superman
and Green Ian...

Du-duh!

Did you just call me
"Girl" Superman?

It was an honest mistake.

[crashing]

- Sorry. It was an honest mistake.
- [man screaming]

Ha-ha.

Kara, I really think
you should come

to my anger management
support group.

Oh, sure. No, no, I'd love to come
to your touchy-feely workshop.

Should I bring
my own healing crystals,

or will the group
be providing them?

I'm serious, Kara!

I really didn't want it
to come to this.

Remember the birthday card
you gave me?

"Jess, I owe you one gift."

Fine! All right, I'll go, okay?

But only because you're exploiting
a thoughtful and generous gift.

Welcome to
Getting to the H.E.A.R.T.

Healing Emotional Anger
Requires Training.

A new explorer has joined us
on our expedition to the soul!

[puffs]

First person to hug me
loses an arm.

It's okay, dude. I wasn't
sure about this either,

but ever since
I got to my H.E.A.R.T.,

I can face the anguish
of my unrequited love.

And I've learned to manage my
searing hatred for all humankind.

With the pressure of school,
work, and other stuff,

my temper was
getting out of control.

Like one time,
I lost my cool and said

[whispers] "H-E-C-K."

That day,
I was more rage than Barry.

[Carter moans]

Oh, that's adorable.

Now, come on, g*ng, let's show
Kara how we get to our H.E.A.R.T.

Behold,
the Mirror of Forgiveness.

[Kara grunts]

But before
we can forgive others,

- we must be able to forgive ourselves.
- [Kara grunts]

Forgiveness is key, Carter.

I forgive you.

I forgive you, Carter Hall.

Ugh.

Holding on to anger,

- like holding on to this bowling ball, is exhausting.
- [grunting]

All you have to do,
in both cases, is let it drop.

I feel better.

Come on! I mean, did dropping
that ball actually do anything?

All the stuff that makes you
angry is still out there!

Kara, this class is about changing
how we express that anger.

What good is being angry
if no one knows about it?

I like how I express my anger!

It doesn't hurt anyone,
so leave me alone!

[groans]

Oh, boy. You okay, Carter?

Forgiveness is the key.

Ugh, there's gotta be
a way to reach her.

Don't you think maybe
you should listen to Kara?

I mean, how she choses to deal with
her anger is, well, up to her.

- Can I make a suggestion?
- That's a great idea, Zee!

Suggestion!
The power of suggestion!

Hypnosis?
More like Hyp-yes-sis.

Wait, you want to hypnotize Kara?

I'm not sure
that's a great idea.

Besides, hypnotizing someone
is not easy.

[chuckles] I should know.

Hey, guys.
What's not easy?

You're very sleepy.

I am very sleepy.

I stand corrected.

Listen to me, Kara.
From now on,

whenever you encounter
something irritating,

you will instead see it
as something adorable.

Yes. Irritating is adorable.

Now you will awaken

on one, two, three!

...easy?

Zee, what's not easy?

[whispers]
Now, to see if it worked.

Look, Jess,
if you wanna apologize

for forcing your granola class
on me, we're all good.

Actually, I have other... thoughts
I'd like to share with you.

Last week, I left my laundry
in the washer

and accidentally turned your
favorite pair of boots lime green.

Also, I was thinking
of sprucing up your room

with a life-size cutout of Superman.

And replacing
all your sugar-filled soda

with much healthier bean milk.

And last but not least, I'd
like you to strongly consider

replacing all
your leather jackets

with these much-better-
for-the-environment burlap sacks.

[Zee whimpering]

Is that a fact?

Well, [chuckles]

I have a few thoughts
I'd like to share with you.

You are the cutest little
smooshy-wooshy baby I've ever seen!

I'll just squish it, and then
tickle your cute little face.

[Jessica giggling]
Kara, that tickles.

[Kara speaks gibberish]
I swear to God...

[Jessica] Okay, stop. Stop.

Sweet Heterokontophyta,

the most affectionate
of all algae.

Without blinding rage,
oh, you're bluer than ever.

Enjoy it while it lasts, kid.

Construction starts tomorrow.

[Pam] "Coming soon:
Ode to Concrete"

A concrete statue
celebrating concrete?

[growls]

Let it drop. Let it drop.
[seething]

Let it drop!

[screams]

Oh, to heck with it!

Kara was right.

[chuckles]

What good is it, being angry,

if no one knows about it?

[school bell ringing]

Uh, have any of you guys noticed
anything weird about Kara today?

There you are, Danvers!

I just got word
that you failed homeroom!

How do you manage to fail a block of
time that doesn't even give grades?

Honesty, what am I gonna
do with you?

I'm not sure, but I know
what I'm gonna do with you.

Come here!
Let me boop that nose.

- [meowing]
- Lemme boop. Boopity-boop, boop...

- Stop that. Stop.
- [Kara laughing]

- Stop it, please. Stop it.
- Boopity-boop, boop.

My personal space.
Stop... Stop it!

Come back here,
you little smushins'!

I'll boop it.
I'll boop your nose.

Uh, you may want
to rethink that hypnosis.

Wait. You hypnotized Kara?

It was the only way I could get
her to deal with her anger.

Who's got the boopy-nose?
You do.

- Who does? You do.
- Stop that. Stop that.

Well, for your sake, there'd better be
a way to undo whatever it is you did.

Of course there is.

Pushing her past
her rage threshold

will snap her out
of that suggestive state.

Whoa. Back up a sec.

The only way to break the
hypnosis is to make her mad?

- That's correct.
- And this is the same hypnosis

that is clearly making it very difficult
for her to get mad in the first place?

[loud crash]

[people screaming]

- [sloshy growling]
- [screams]

Oh, my...

It's so, so...

So adorable!

[panting]

Must cuddle!

Kara! No, wait!

[panting]

Can't... hold it.

[grunting]

Wait. What's that?

[pulsing]

Kara, that pulsating spore,

it looks like
the heart of this thing.

[giggles] I'll say it does!

Snap out of it!

[sighs] I've never
told this to anyone,

but, as I child,
I was consumed by fear.

I was afraid of everything.

I came to resent myself
because of it.

That resentment turned
into self-loathing.

That's why I had to learn
to manage that anger.

I had to show you
to do the same.

It's like when I see you
get mad, I wanna shake you

and say, "There's a better way
to deal with that anger

- if you'd just do what I say!"
- [grunting]

Quit telling me what to do!

Kara, you're back!

I pushed you
past your rage threshold!

Listen, I am the person
I wanna be.

Sometimes that person is, yeah, a
little rough around the edges,

but you're just gonna
have to be okay with that.

I am... now.

Good. Moving on.

Two questions. Where are
we and how do we get out?

We have to get rid
of this blob!

I'm pretty sure
that's how we do it.

What's the plan?

We get to this thing's heart...

Oh, come on.

...and rip it out!

Now you're talkin'!

[grunts]

[grunts]

[grunts]

No!

No, no, no!

- [Pam screams]
- [birds screeching]

Kara, from now on,
I promise to never interfere

with how you deal
with your emotions ever again.

Don't be so hard
on yourself, Jess.

I mean, you totally
went overboard,

but I think
you actually helped me.

- Really?
- Yeah. Think about it.

Because of you,
I actually cuddled Mr. Chapin,

and yet, here you are,

and not in a hospital.

I mean, talk about progress.

[both laughing]

Oh, right.

Aww. You kiddin'?

Gimme that hug.

[both moan]

- [Jessica] Kara.
- Eh? Sorry.
