MOS 151 - S6E11 - Mxy in the Middle

Maid of Steel: A Supergirl Podcast

Three hundred years ago Mr. Mxyptlix betrayed Nyxly when he testified against her. The result of that trial was Nyxly being banished to the phantom zone. Now the princess of the fifth dimension seeks to reassemble the All Stone which would give her power over all existence. Supergirl and her team must protect Mxy because his blood is the key to the All Stone.

Imps can be tracked by their magic. Therefore Mxy must find a way to be of service without using his powers. J’onn says “an imp without magic is like a rocket ship without fuel”. Needless to say, this is a difficult mission but Mxy tries his best. His heart is definitely in the right place. Magic from the fifth dimension is hard to beat. The properties of which nullify the first few solutions our team comes up with. Mxy is on the right track, however, a Trojan horse may be just what they need to win this fight.

Lena makes her way to Fortune Cove to try to discover more information on her birth mother. Strangely, as soon as she mentions Elizabeth Walsh’s name the local residents become unhelpful and eager for her to leave. Andrea uses her sources to find the last woman Lena seeks. Florence was hard to find, but once located, is willing to share the information Lena has traveled here for. Lizzie came to her in her dreams and told her good friend that someday her daughter would come seeking answers. Lena has inherited more than a beautiful face from her mother. She also possesses the spark of her magic. This revelation made Green Butterfly really happy. I have always wanted Lena to be more than another Luthor in a House of El story. I love Lena the scientist and business genius. She is one of my favorite characters so how could I say no to an expansion of her character. I only wish we could have more episodes left to explore this untapped skill.

Now all I can say is Lena better fly home quickly because the Super Friends need some magical help. Lena always gives 100% to any problem she faces. She will work tirelessly to help the team succeed against the Imp with world domination on her mind. Supergirl and her team must find the totem of courage before Nyxly does. Whoever controls courage also controls fear. Don’t you worry though. Silver Vox and Green Butterfly will be with you every step of the way as we continue the adventure of Supergirl’s final season. Stay safe and have a super week!
