I was thinking that, if this show had been on the normal schedule, this was the episode that would have aired in February.
Shh, we're not supposed to ask that question! That's like asking how Alex still afford the rent on her apartment, groceries, etc. now that she's unemployed. Or asking how Kara affords that loft (and all of that take out food!) on a Reporter's' salary. I swear, Nia's the most realistic person on the show, living in a tiny apartment with a roommate.
