Supergirl, Season 2
Kara:
You're not upset that I caught the bad guys and got everyone out safely, are you?
Maggie:
I would have gotten them to free the hostages.
Kara:
Maybe. But they're in jail now where they can't hurt anyone, and that's all that matters.
Maggie:
As long as they don't use the "Supergirl defense".
Kara:
The what?
Maggie:
It's a thing some criminals use to get their charges dropped. It's a perfect storm for a defense attorney. Excessive force. Evidence contaminated by debris. Vigilante justice.
Kara:
"Vigilante justice"? I stand for help, I help, and compassion. I did what I had to do to get those people out of there.
Alex:
I think what Maggie's trying to say is that what you do is amazing when we're up against--
Maggie:
A giant purple monster or a half-cyborg murderer, sure. But most of the time, police work requires a more... delicate touch.
Kara:
"Delicate".
Maggie:
Yeah. You broke a guy's arm and gave another a concussion. And that was after you knocked in the roof of a National City landmark. And now, it just has a big Supergirl-sized hole in it.
