Sure, it might not fit in with the M.O. of the whole superhero mantra, but angry, irritated Kara/Supergirl made for some brilliant TV. Much like Supermans descent into darkness in Superman II, seeing Supergirl lose her cool or get a little too aggressive was great to see and was the highlight of Red Faced. The darker edge to the titular heroine was seemingly just a convenient storytelling device for use in this episode as Kara learns to control her anger, but any similar attitude and approach would be most welcomed in the future.
