Synopsis for "Secret Identities"

Kara hears about a hostage situation and infiltrates it dressed in normal clothes, taking out the aggressors. The Science Police find evidence of heat vision and decide to use red Kryptonite to discover which of the hostages is Kryptonian. Kara worries, but it turns out a little boy in the room (and his mother) are also Kryptonian. The boy mutates and Kara takes him into space to heal with unfiltered sunlight, when his mother appears and attacks Kara. She tells Kara she was in hiding on Earth with her son because she wanted a better life than the "laborer" she was assigned to be on New Krypton. And she tells Kara she thinks her father would be ashamed of her.

Lana tells Kara she did the right thing in trying to save people, but Kara wonders if she made matters worse.

Synopsis for "Second Born: The Secret Origin of Superwoman"

A man is running from a storm on Mt. Katahdin, where Superwoman died. He is disintegrated and Superwoman is reborn.

Lucy Lane remembers her birth and trying to earn the affection Lois already had from her father, and never felt she lived up to Lois. Sam Lane never liked Clark or Superman, and died as seen during "Our Worlds At War", which was when Lucy enlisted in the Army. She was almost killed during "Amazons Attack", when she's brought in by her father who is alive and faked his own death due to "people he couldn't trust". He then gives Lucy the Superwoman suit, saying she's better than Lois and the only one who could wear it.

Lucy is then discovered alive and it's implied General Lane will not be happy with that development.
