Secrets are dangerous. They're usually why people get hurt in mysteries. Feels like I'm living in a mystery novel right now... only none of the secrets are mine.

Synopsis for "Our Backs to the Wall"

Supergirl and Alex Danvers are fighting a swarm of Kelex robots back-to-back. All of sudden Alex is abucted by a woman in a full-face helmet and bodysuit. Kara tries to reason with her to not avail. then Kara remarks she wears a Fort Rozz's guardswoman's uniform. The woman answers she isn't a guard but Facet.

It looks like Facet is going to kill Alex, so Supergirl attacks her. However, Facet is strong enough to fight back. Facet gets two drones seize Kara and claims she lured Kara into her lair to train her. Then she whispers something in her ear.
