We all know the name, we all heard the stories and the legends, the beauty, and the greatness of Cleopatra. Only problem is that history has confused this leader and failed her biography  time and time again. In this episode, Kara looks into the life of Cleopatra and the misconceptions surrounding key moments in her life. Ultimately, Cleopatra's life has been told and retold by generations of scholars who tend to see things with all the educational acumen of the "Y" chromosome. 
 
 The story of Cleopatra has been a dumpster fire for centuries and hopefully Kara can help extinguish this inferno once and for all.
 
 Note: no one carrying a "Y" chromosome was injured during the making of this episode.
