Supergirl
WhenSupergirldebuted on CBS , it introduce us to a whole young version of Kara Zor - El . In her regular life Kara Danvers crop at CatCo , where she pop out out as CEO Cat Grant ’s help . Though she spends most of her fourth dimension making their lives miserable , Cat genuinely cares about those who work for her .
The more we get to know Cat , the more we gain she is a outflow of experience and real world advice . nigh everything she says is memorable , important , and often hilarious . In time of year two she became a fall back guest star , mean we lost out on hebdomadal Cat Grant wiseness , so here ’s a refresher course with Cat Grant ’s 10 best quotes fromSupergirl .
“TOYMAN JR. YOU’RE THE COMPUTER GENIUS, FIX THIS.”
Winn spent his animation worried that when hoi polloi found out his father was the infamous Toyman , they would treat him differently . Obviously , his friends did n’t hesitate to patronage him . The Apocalypse did lead to some rather interesting encounters though .
If there ’s one somebody in his life-time he did n’t need to occupy about , it was Ms. Grant . She does n’t care who his parent are , as long as he can make her problem . It ’s a weirdly refreshing moment for him . Although we can never prove it , we think this was her way of place him at ease .
“THE ONLY REASON I BOUGHT THIS BUILDING WAS BECAUSE IT HAS A PRIVATE ELEVATOR. THAT WAY I DON’T HAVE TO GET SOAKED IN CHEAP COLOGNE EVERY MORNING GETTING TO MY OFFICE. FIND OUT WHO USED IT, HAVE THEM REPRIMANDED OR BATHED. I DON’T CARE WHICH.”
With this one line we are introduced to the force play of nature that is Cat Grant . We in a flash know what kind of boss and fair sex she is . In case fans were wonder what Calista Flockhart would do to make the unbearable hirer character her own , we get the sharp wit and peculiar ego awareness that becomes her key signature properly from the showtime .
It ’s a brilliant means to like a shot allow viewer have sex this is n’t going to be like otherSupermanseries . It showcases how this world is populated by inviolable distaff characters , and they ’re all different and particular in their own way of life .
“IN THE LAST HOUR ALONE, THE DAILY PLANET HAS PUBLISHED MY REAL AGE, THE FACT THAT I HAVE THREE PERSONAL SHOPPERS ON CALL AT BARNEY’S AND THAT I ASKED IDRIS ELBA OUT ON A DATE AND HE SAID NO. HIS LOSS.”
When confront with the fact that her email has been hacked and all her personal data is out there , Cat must administer with having all her most closely hold secrets out in the open . Though most of us would be disturbed about chronicle information or kin history being discovered by the world , Cat has other concerns .
Honestly , these secrets are n’t that shocking . She looks astonishing , three personal shoppers is n’t that sorry and what woman would n’t shoot her shot with Idris Elba ? In fact , we ’re marvel why he would say no to Cat Grant .
“WELL, LIKE TAXES, AGING AND PARTICIPATING IN MARTHA STEWART’S ANNUAL SECRET SANTA, THIS IS JUST SOMETHING I HAVE TO DO.”
After her deepest secrets are divulge by an email cyber-terrorist , Cat must face the rest of the display board . As much as she ’d like to put it off , it ’s inevitable , which ostensibly Martha Stewart ’s clandestine santa also is .
No one name drops like Cat Grant . Yes , she fuck a lot of noted people , but when she talks about them , it ’s always in the most unexpected circumstance . She never just runs into someone at a political party , it ’s usually someplace all out of the average and hilarious .
“AW LESLIE, YOU AND I GOT THROUGH YOU NOT SUPPORTING HILLARY IN 2008, WE CAN GET THROUGH THIS.”
To say Ms. Grant is a unmanageable boss is an understatement . Shock supporter Leslie Willis takes out her frustration with Cat on the wireless by making her the target area of her show . Once she is struck by lightning during a eggbeater crash , her retaliation gets more grievous .
When she attacks her former boss , Cat stress to reason with her by remind Livewire of their political differences . Of course , politics is n’t usually the best way to permeate an line of reasoning , and Livewire has no plans to quit her vendetta , until Supergirl gets involved .
“I DIDN’T GET WHERE I AM BY RUNNING AND HIDING FROM A FIGHT.”
Livewire has it in for Cat , so when she teams up with Silver Banshee , CatCo is her first point . When news of Leslie ’s escape break , Kara beg Ms. Grant to protect herself by obliterate out from her . Cat Grant is a deal of things , but a Sir Noel Pierce Coward is not one of them .
Even when Livewire and Banshee show up at her berth , Cat is outwardly brave , mocking her former employees . It is only when thing get dire that she begs for her life for the sake of her sons . Losing them is the only thing she ’s truly scared of .
“THE FLASH SOUNDS LIKE SOMEONE WHOSE ONLY SUPERPOWER IS JUMPING OUT OF AN ALLEY IN A TRENCH COAT.”
In the season one episode “ World ’s Finest ” Barry Allen acres in National City andSupergirlofficially joins the Arrowverse . He instantly makes his presence matte by pull through Kara . Cat is intrigued by this new hero , but unimpressed by his name .
Barry ’s reaction at having his name broken down by Cat is great . He ’s never view that particular side of being call The Flash before . It emphasizes how dissimilar Earth-38 is to him , and now lets him get it on he ’s not the biggest deal in town any longer .
“YOU CANNOT GET ANGRY AT WORK, ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE A GIRL. IF I HAD THROWN A CHAIR OR A NAPKIN, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN UNPROFESSIONAL AND CAREER SUICIDE.”
While it may seem like Cat is n’t interested in Kara ’s liveliness ( and she really is n’t most of the time ) , she does recognize her potential . She wants to verify Kara avoids some of the mistakes she made on her way to the top .
Something every fair sex visualize out pretty quickly is that they are n’t allowed to show certain emotion in the work . Though she would have been justified in her chemical reaction , Cat add up perfectly that the rules for adult female are different . Something Supergirl needs to remember just as much as Kara .
“KIRA, CALL HARRISON FORD AND TELL HIM THAT I’M FLATTERED, BUT ONCE AND FOR ALL, I DO NOT DATE OLDER MEN. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY’RE MARRIED.”
Of all her celebrated name drop , this may have been the best . A fed up Cat lets Kara know that she does n’t have time for married men . Even if they ’re Han Solo and Indiana Jones .
Of course , this is made hilarious by the fact that Calista Flockhart is in reality matrimonial to Harrison Ford . We wondered if he would be one of the many name Cat loves discombobulate around , and if so how they would work it in . This was even funny than we suppose , and stands as one of Cat ’s in force moments .
“YOU LOOK LIKE THE ATTRACTIVE YET NON-THREATENING, RICHLY DIVERSE CAST OF A CW SHOW.”
Barry Allen ’s appearance in National City lead to some expectant moments , include Winn wondering about all the unlike Earths . James ’ obvious jealousy and the beginning of Barry and Kara ’s friendship .
However , none was better than his first meeting with Cat Grant . As Winn , Barry , Kara and James stand in her office , she had no qualm distinguish them what they remind her of . ConsideringThe Flash’splace on The CW andSupergirl’smove there in season two , once again Cat is spot on .
