Oooh, thanks for the info on Hera's blood. If it was just a "still developing" kind of thing and that she developed a blood type at a certain point *handwave handwave* that could totally the biggest logistical problem in Kara being a hybrid. Her lack of recognition of the name could be due to a number of things, though there's still the metatextual issue of Nicky's retcon. Perhaps it's simply that all hybrids have Big, Huge destinies and he didn't want to write one in for Nicky? Blergh.

I agree that someone needs to writh Ellen and Kara's Mom, (even though I also agree it would be a shame to stepmotherize Socrata) but alas, I have neither the time nor a story-hook. :(

I was quite happy to see in an interview that apparently the writers did see Laura's passing of the baton as having to do with her acknowledging her culpability in the mutiny, but I still would have liked to see more fallout.

And WORD to the point about getting Laura a Mytharc STAT.
