In Season 2, Episode 7, called ‘Olsen’s Eleven,’ we see Livewire and Heat Wave as a couple. They were previously known as criminals in Metropolis, using powerful technology to commit crimes. But things have changed, and now they are working together and in love. Their relationship helps Lois Lane learn important lessons about trust and forgiveness.
Lois has been struggling with her feelings about aliens. This was causing problems between her and Clark Kent. She feared other aliens wouldn’t be as kind as Clark. This fear seemed to be true when Supergirl attacked and kidnapped Clark. Jimmy Olsen reminded Lois that she should stay trusting instead of acting out of fear.
Livewire and Heat Wave’s relationship also plays a role in helping Lois. Livewire gives Lois advice that helps her see the importance of giving second chances. This makes Lois decide to trust Kara (Supergirl) again.
