Kara is to wed "Kal-El" under Saturn Queen’s mind control. In a flashback, Kara sees Saturn Queen defeated by a Superman/Batman team, finding Ultraman in the Phantom Zone, and landing together in Kandor. Another flashback breaks Saturn Queen's control and Kara attacks her and Ultraman. Saturn Queen orders Power Girl’s immediate execution, but Kara intervenes and frees her. As Kara is about to kill Ultraman, Saturn Queen mentally intervenes, asking that he be spared if she shares information about Argo City. The information is shared, Kara leaves Ultraman alone, and departs with Power Girl.
