Picking up where it left off
The episode picks up where “Prom Night!” left, with Nia and Brainy trapped by the aliens. However, Kara hears them in distress and comes to their aid. In the brawl, Nia and Brainy break free and manage to stop the aliens. However, Cat watched and recorded the whole thing via a drone.
With Brainy and Nia free, they pretend they’re ready to go and Kenny and Kara have to get ready for the ball. Brainy later tells Nia that he set the aliens on their way to Uruguay so they can reset space-time. However, Nia dreamed of the cage and the cat again, but Brainy thinks it must be just a dream echo.

Prom
Alex drives Kara to the prom and the sisters have a heartfelt conversation in the car. Alex tells her that she is proud of herself and apologizes for the way she has behaved lately. She now realizes that Kara can handle anything. She also tells Kara that because she has to wear a mask everyday, she should take it overnight and not wear a mask to the prom. Alex will then photograph the meteor shower.
On the Timeship, Nia and Brainy share a dance before the ball.
At school, the meteor shower begins, interrupting Kara from talking to Kenny. She takes off to prevent the meteor from hitting the school, which Alex witnesses. The meteor is made of kryptonite, however, and Kara falls from the sky and lands in the gym, alive but weakened by the kryptonite. As they sort things out, the aliens are broadcasting a message demanding that the aliens reveal themselves or not. Kenny pretends to be the Kryptonian and the aliens take him away before disappearing.

Aliens and a rescue mission
The aliens find out that Kenny is human and that he sacrificed himself for his friend so now they plan to use him as bait and throw him in a cell with Cat. Naxim sends a message to the aliens and says the Kryptonian has 10 minutes to turn around or they will kill Kenny. Nia and Brainy subdue Kara and then go look for Kenny.
Alex takes the Kryptonite shards from Kara’s hand and after speaking – with Alex warning her that she’ll never go back to normal if she gets caught – Alex, takes the lock of the janitor’s closet they’re stuck in so that Kara can enter natural light. A recharged Kara takes off. Nia has another dream, this time she holds the cougar back so she can try to read the cage for more details, discern the letters PW She loses control of things and comes out of the dream, but brings the cougar with her, sends it hunting aliens, a power Brainy calls lucid dreaming. When they board, they realize that Nia’s dream cougar is actually about Cat.

Everything is going wrong
Kara shows up to the ship and in a scuffle, they end up freeing all of the aliens who have been captive on board. Cat escapes and the police show up as Naxim and his sidekick escape. Brainy and Nia watch in horror as Kara is confronted with Cat and the cops, realizing that the timeline has been altered and cannot be undone. Nia says they can use the Time Ship to travel back in time to fix it, going back just a few hours so they can stop Cat. Kara surprises and gets out of custody and flies away.

Fix things
Nia and Brainy step back in time for a few hours and prepare to turn things around, but quickly find they are not alone. Kara sided with them. She tells them that she realizes that she doesn’t want her future to be mixed up with cops and reporters, so she wants to make a difference. With time running out, they agree to let her help, but they accidentally come into contact with Alex and Kenny. Nia finds Cat’s drone and shoots it down, then comes face to face with Cat. Nia ends up giving Cat a peptalk, telling her that she’s a visionary and even puts her on the path to being called Cat rather than CJ. With that out of the way, the timeline resets.
