It's actively missing Astra hours apparently.

Can you imagine Kara found Astra in the phantom zone instead of mister "let's give up and stare at cave wall" and they make it back.

Everyone is there and for a minute they're all too caught up in the moment with having Kara back. Then Alex steps back from hugging her baby sister and see's Astra and just blue screens.

And the J'onn notices and has full on Kill Bill sirens going on.

Brainy is there like "oh shit I read about this bitch" except yah know in that analytical but dramatic way he has of talking? Yeah he's standing there explaining in "the gravest terms" how big of a criminal Astra was to Nia who is wondering why tf the mood just switched, which means he's filling in Lena and Kelly too, and there's a lot of "SHE made Myriad?" and "Alex KILLED her???" overlapping Kara trying to tell everyone she's cool now, everything is fine, and Astra being all "I'm not gonna kill anyone" and "I really wanna thank Alex for stopping me so I could have this second chance."

At this point Alex almost goes full on hysterical laughter because "you want to THANK me? For killing you?" but also getting body slammed with that realisation of "oh fuck I was into this woman."

Which Kelly is watching like "interesting..." and also "why is that streak hot?"

And Lucy is filming from the back corner using years of military experience to keep a straight face so that no one notices her before Alex manages to formulate a full sentence in response to what's going on, because why tf not?

And then because why not go full indulgence, Vasquez walks in planning to check the kids haven't committed treason again while she's been off doing undercover work or whatever keeps her busy these days, sees the chaos of Nia trying to stealth off to get popcorn while Brainy and Lena low key fangirl over getting to question Astra about Myriad, and Kara facing up to J'onn's concerned dad glare with an argument that's basically "you don't have all the facts... Which are that I love her", and Astra being uber formal about greeting Kelly because gay disaster Alex just blurted "this is my Kelly" just to try and shift the conversation away from the whole "thanks for killing me" thing.

She turns right back around and walks out again as Alex lunges at Lucy because she finally noticed the filming. She runs into Cat who is just coming off the elevator and just shakes her head. They decide to leave and come back in half an hour with coffee.
