Did you self-medicate with booze?
Large-scale city repair and high-speed bullets to the chest?
If you chose the last option, then congrats, youre grieving the Supergirl way.

But its just a beautiful fantasy; her joyless reality is keeping National City safe.
Then, when Alex invites her to the tasting for the wedding reception, Kara blows it off.
Let me repeat: Kara.
When Alex objects, Jonn assures her that her unrelenting seriousness is one of her best qualities.
OMG, hes awful.
CRRRUUUUUSH HIM, LENA.
At CatCo, we learn that Cat Grant has a new job: White House press secretary!
I…dont think thats how major corporate acquisitions work?
But theyre interrupted by the TV (again!)
with news about a burglary in progress.
The cost, maybe?
I bet National Citys expensive.
At least theyve identified the thief, Robert DuBois, codename Bloodsport.
A shot of heat vision later, she reveals Bloodsport sprinting away from a previously invisible Daxamite ship.
(So does this mean more Guardian in season 3?
Anyway, Kara says Supergirl is the core of her, and Kara is a distance second.
With this in mind, she quits CatCo.
And who is Bloodsport working with?
Yep, the bottle of cologne himself.
Amazing burn, lady!
Highest of fives.)
Shes done with the coddling and tells Kara that its time to ditch the pity party.
Who are you right now?
Kara Danvers doesnt quit!
I am not a human.
I tried to be, but Im not.
Kara Danvers was a mistake, she says, crushing Alex (and the audience).
So Alex gives an update on Bloodsport and turns to leave.
Before she does, she reminds her sister that Kara Danvers is her favorite person.
She saved me more times than Supergirl ever could.
So just think about that while youre trying to get rid of her.
Yessss, sister tough love!
You have a human heart now, he tells her.
If you have a go at cut it out, youll lose something essential.
Kara in turn asks if he still dreams about his family.
And of course, Winn was listening in on their whole exchange, which is a little creepy.
Gee, think well see them again?
Yep, seems like normal, everyday single mom stuff!
Meanwhile, Supergirls unconscious body drifts downward in the water as her team calls her name over the comms.
Regardless, its the first step in getting our Kara back, if a little sadder than before.
That fight is delayed when a furious Morgan storms into Lenas office.
Karas sassy with him as she leaves, and Morgan tells Lena that she now hasallof his attention.
Now some closing scenes:
Underwater, an alien ship flashes to life.
This is obviously not the last well see of this.
Theyre both near tears as he says it would be his honor.
Lena texts back a heart.
Awww, all the hearts, you two!
Aaaaand cut to Samantha waking up in a panic.
