Non-Spoiler Thoughts:

Official Synopsis:

DEAN CAIN RETURNS – When Jeremiah Danvers (guest star Dean Cain) is rescued from Cadmus, Alex (Chyler Leigh) and Kara (Melissa Benoist) are thrilled to have their father back. The Danvers arrange a family dinner to celebrate but things go awry when a suspicious Mon-El (Chris Wood) starts to question Jeremiah about his sudden return.

Things that stood out:

You have report to HR because you are dating co-worker (are they getting paid?)

Not a very subtle way to move Jeremiah (lead lined truck with 3 big black suvs)

Mon-El is the only one smart enough to question if Jeremiah is good

Jeremiah knows “Mon-El’s secret” and “doubts that Kara would like to know”

Alex is mad at Kara for accusing Jeremiah, but is was shady as heck to break into the database

The didn’t even give Jeremiah an x-ray? (To see his arm)

Jeremiah says “it’s not the whole story”? What does that mean?

Also said, “I did it for you” to Alex

Jeremiah took the National Alien registry

What is the giant spaceship at end?
