- However, Kelly could have meant that Alex should have called before going to check on Rip Roar.
- Rama Khan is said to have been responsible for the Noah's Ark flood and the Yellow River flood; though this is likely via commanding another member of Leviathan, as he can only control the earth.
- Kara refers to Rama Khan as an earth-bender to the Fortress'a database; rather than using term "dirt" or "soil". Unless the database was upgraded by herself or Clark to recognize Earth synonyms, this Is a grammatical goof.
- Myriad was inside Fort Rozz when Supergirl launched it into space at the end of Season 1. She did not retrieve it when inside Fort Rozz in Season 3, making it impossible to be inside the Fortress of Solitude.
- Lena Luthor is implied to have never seen the Fortress of Solitude before. However, she and her mother Lillian were in the Fortress of Solitude during "Nevertheless, She Persisted", and the "L-protocol" did not go off in that episode.
- While Supergirl thinks it was Superman who made the program, it's possible Brainy did it instead; or Kelex after Henshaw broke in.
