The Phantoms are back with a vengeance on Supergirl Season 6 Episode 7, “Fear Knot.” Or are they? David Harewood directs the mid-season finale where each of the Super Friends is confronted by visions of their worst fear.
Knowing this makes watching the promo video a little easier. It’s still difficult to watch Brainy fall away from Nia and to his presumed death, even if it is all a vision and not reality.
The Phantoms don’t ease up back in the Phantom Zone either because Kara and Zor-El are still facing the uphill battle of trying to escape. It becomes all the more chilling when Kara says, “If they try to save me, they’re all going to die.”
Then again, this could be a vision of Kara’s worst fear — not being able to save the people she loves.
Since this is the mid-season finale, there’s a big chance “Fear Knot” will leave everyone with a cliffhanger to keep us on the edge of our seats until Supergirl returns in August.
