You are all here because something is missing from your life, right? Something elusive, something that you can't quite explain. I bet you've looked for this key to happiness in religion, or maybe philosophy. Maybe on a walk in nature, or just watching the big football game at home. Some of you may have tried to find it at your jobs. You've looked everywhere. But, my friends, if you don't know what it is you're looking for, if you don't know what's missing, you're never gonna be able to find it. That's why you're here today with me, so that I can show you what that missing piece is.

~ Ally Allston
Alexandra "Ally" Allston, nicknamed as Parasite, is the main antagonist in Season 2 of the TV series Superman & Lois. She is based on the DC Comics character Alexandra Allston.
Ally was a cult leader who almost cost the life of Lucy Lane. This led her sister Lois to dismantle Ally's organization. Years later, Ally tried to merge Earth and the Bizarro World using the Oblivion Stone, but she was defeated by Superman.
She was portrayed by Rya Kihlstedt, while her young version was portrayed by Amber Taylor.
Ally's father died trying to reach the Inverse World. At just eight, she inherited his belongings and the pendant that enabled dimensional travel. She authored self-help books, founded the Inverse Society, and recruited several followers, presenting herself as the only one capable of "fixing" their broken lives. In the past, Ally was the cause of Lucy Lane's "suicide attempt", who was actually one of her followers trying to see the Inverse World. This led Lois to write an article in the Daily Planet disproving Ally's beliefs and forcing her to remain in the dark web with her followers.
Years later, Ally reveals damaging information about Lois to the press, and goes to Smallville in Lucy's place to meet with Lois. During one of Ally's lectures at the Inverse Society, Chrissy Beppo (Lois' co-worker) shows up and Ally shows her a video making Lois look like a liar.
Chrissy then visits Ally at her apartment to interview her without Lois, but Ally drugs Chrissy and has her mind transported to the Inverse World. When Chrissy wakes up, Superman and Lois appear to warn them about the imminent attack by Bizarro, who wants to kill Ally to prevent her from merging the two dimensions. Afterwards, fugitive general Mitch Anderson gives Ally Bizarro's pendant.
Inverse World[]
Ally then uses the pendants to cross over to the Inverse World with her cult, but while Mitch manages to cross over with one of the pendants, several of her followers die in the process and Ally is captured by Superman and imprisoned by the D.O.D., where she is interrogated by General Sam Lane about Lucy's whereabouts. Ally is later freed by Lucy and manages to cross over to the Inverse World, where she eventually manages to merge with her other half using the pendants.
Ally later flew to Superman's Earth while he and Tal-Rho were trying to destroy her pendant with their heat vision in a volcano. Tal flew to fight her, but she began absorbing his powers and threw him away, engaging in an aerial battle with Superman. While trying to drain the hero, she was caught off guard by Steel's hammer and returned to the Inverse World after she took what was left of the pendant. She made it clear to Lana-Rho that she had a way of still fixing things. Ally later fatally drains the Bizarro Tal-Rho, who previously betrayed her and helped Superman escape their dimension.
Endgame[]
Ally began merging the worlds
“
With the authorization of the Department of Defense, today I can relay to you, not only is the merging of the planets real, it is happening, and Ally Allston, or whoever she is now that she and her Bizarro self are one, is responsible. If Ally succeeds in merging these two worlds, each of us will be forced against our will to merge with our other selves, turning us into... I don't know what. And I can also confirm that for the first time in 20 years we can't wait for Superman to save us.

~ Chrissy Beppo
In Ally's merged state, she fights Superman and Tal-Rho. Eventually, Superman's efforts caused her to split back into two separate individuals, each disempowered and human again. Both Ally and her Bizarro counterpart were remanded to Department of Defense custody. In an interrogation, they confess merging felt joyous at first, but ultimately left them hollow and dread-filled. They acknowledged continuing the plan out of loneliness, not conviction.
