Ed’s Winner for the Week: Women posessed - All four shows featured female characters caught in a psychological battle with conflicting personas. Amelia Earhart (Jennifer Oleksiuk) was transformed into an alien monster on Legends. The former Batwoman Kate/Circe (Wallis Day) couldn't handle her swiss cheesed brain after Alice and Jacob kidnapped her. Cecille (Danielle Nicolet) on Flash had her body taken over by the Psycho Pirate. Finally on Superman and Lois, Lana (Emmanuelle Chriqui) volunteered to let Kal-El's mother Lara occupy her body temporarily.
