This isn't the first time Chloe has called her in a panic, but a month into the job— and two months after Kara's promotion, though that first month is best forgotten, along with the parade of replacements that never took— she's down to only the more significant disasters that tend to swirl to life around Cat Grant.
Before Kara can ask Chloe what's the matter now, she continues in a rush. "Cat's in the hospital—"
