Is that a Containment suit?
Uh-huh. I'm not flesh and blood anymore, just living energy.
That wouldn't be NUCLEAR energy, would it?
With a name like Captain Atom, what do you think?
I think you're what I marched against back in college.
Why don't you take the stick out, Corporal?
Captain.
He asked you a question!
Don't answer him! That's classified inform-
[picks him up] I've just about had it with you guys! You've got 'til the count of five. One... FOUR... [her eyes start to glow]
I'd speak up if I were you.
So what's the plan?
I shove these carbon rods in the robots reactor, that should stop it.
I gotta say that's not much of a plan, if you get that close the heat will fry you.
I know.
But--
If this doesn't work, contact the League, they'll know what to do next.
Captain.
[Green Arrow shakes hands with Captain Atom]
You sure he's gonna be okay?
He should be. J'onn's team picked him up right after it happened, so he didn't lose much of his energy.
At least he got a new suit out of it. So aren't you gonna give me the "you did good" speech?
You're headstrong, unprofessional and reckless. If you ever jeopardize yourself or your teammates again by running off half-cocked without a battle plan, I will personally see to it that you are kicked out of the League. I don't care who your cousin is. And incidentally? You did good.
Huh.
[Showers/locker room area]
Well, if it isn't the monster-killer.
I was lucky. So was everybody else. Still don't think I belong up here.
That's the point. Someone like you will keep us honest.
Gee, Bats, I don't know. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good radiation burn as much as the next guy, but I don't think...
[Loses his train of thought as he sees Black Canary across the room, pulling up her boots.]
So...see you soon?
You just might.
Come on!
I told you to stay away!
Hey, I'm just trying to help!
I told you before the situation is completely under con--
Looks like I just can't help boarding in.
There's some people at the cliff.
I'll try to drain it.
Go! Go!
There was too much energy.
Well, there's always the low tech way.
Lantern!
I'll worry about that.
So, what's the plan?
I shove these carbon rods into the robot's reactor. That should stop it.
I gotta say, that's not much of a plan. If you get that close, the heat'll fry you. :Captain Atom: I know.
But--
If this doesn't work, contact the League. They'll know what to do next.
Captain.
Try to distract it.
Roger. Hey! Butane breath!
[Captain Atom screams]
[Captain Atom screams]
Say "ah," dirt bag.
Sir, according to my thermal sensor readings of Dr. Simmons, you just missed a prime opportunity to... well, I believe the phrase is, "kiss the girl."
Kissing girls is for heroes, Skeets.
Nice work, Elongated Man.
That was just about the slickest move I've ever seen.
Hey, it was a team effort. I'm just glad I stretched in the right place at the right time.
Back to normal, huh?
Mordru's magic was nullified when he lost consciousness. I thought I told you to stay on crowd control.
I know, but... there was this... I mean, you wouldn't believe it... it almost.. [pauses on seeing Batman narrowing his eyes] ah, forget it.
You and I are gonna have a little chat later. [walks away]
[sarcastic] Looking forward to that.
The android – why does he hate you so much?
I once took advantage of his naiveté. He's not naïve any more, and I've stopped taking advantage of the innocent.
Let's hope you'll be more convincing if you have to tell him that.
A subatomic universe.
Figured the android can't kill what he can't see.
Oh, but I can see you. [Atom and Luthor are revealed to be standing on Amazo's hand] Did you really think I couldn't follow you here? No universe, however large, however small, is denied to me.
What do you want from me?
You have everything humans desire: wealth, power... yet you crave more, and you'll do anything to get it. Why? What is your ultimate purpose?
What you're really asking is, what is yours?
You know, when I heard you were coming I was actually afraid of you. Petrified. But now, when I see your fear, your uncertainty, I just pity you.
[Amazo glares]
You should have quit while you were ahead.
Told you we'd beat him!
What do you mean, "we"?
[holding Atom in her palm] Ready?
Just don't squeeze.
This is incredible. Every atom of it is filled with books' worth of information, it is beautifully simple, it—
Save it for the autopsy.
There. Is that--
That was disgusting.
I don't suppose you need any help destroying that? Wouldn't want that technology falling into the wrong hands.
We can learn a lot from it. It almost beat the Justice League, after all.
Why would you need something to do that, General?
Oh, I don't know. Maybe because it turns out that the Justice League has had a secret space-based weapon of mass destruction all along. And we're going to be talking about that some day, believe me. Ma'am.
[a general has just taken away a doomsday machine that nearly destroyed Earth] Amazing. Show him a weapon that destroyed its creators and every other thing it saw, and he wants to play with it. What's to stop history from repeating itself here on Earth?
We are.
How did you know Vance was the inside man?
He was the only one on the tower whose mind I couldn't read. Cadmus must have supplied him with a sophisticated method of masking his thoughts.
So, what do we do with him now?
I'd like to go in there and wipe clean the last two years of his memory.
Whoa. That's a little harsh, don't you think?
He's a liability.
I'm sure he's spilled everything he knows to Cadmus.
Don't you understand? We can't trust him.
J'onn... we can't trust anyone now.
Cool it, Martian. Back off, freak show, or the meat puppet eats it.
Come here. Let's go, girl.
I've set this for 30 seconds. Plenty of time for you to disarm. Or not, as the case may be.
Not very ladylike behavior, ma'am.
Unh! Plastique!
Ah!
C'est la vie.
Tend to her. They thought of everything.
You really think we can do something with this?
An invulnerable juggernaut forged by the gods? Oh, yes, Miss Waller, most definitely.
I heard we lost Plastique.
Yes, ma'am. You'll have my full report by 0800.
Right. That'll be all. Rick, you're a good soldier. Your father would be proud.
Ma'am.
Next time, go to the bathroom before you leave for a mission.
Let's go.
[Superman and Huntress smashes into Dr. Moon's lab; Dr. Moon pulls a gun]
Don't be stupid - drop it.
[Dr. Moon drops the gun]
Sorry - not good enough. [knocks Dr. Moon to the floor and pulls her crossbow on him]
Huntress!
[backs off] Yeah. Okay. Lean on me. We're getting outta here.
[weak, babbling] Secret messages encoded in amino acid chains in carb-free breakfast bars.
Come on, baby doll. It's all right.
It's gonna be a little rough. It'll take the guards, you get ready to move him.
That won't be necessary, Superman.
Good to see you, Captain. Cover our flank.
I'm afraid you misunderstand. I'm speaking as an officer of the United States Air Force.
Bad time to grow a sense of humor, Cap.
No joke, ma'am. I'm currently assigned to General Eiling's special projects unit. My orders are to prevent you from taking Question out of this facility. So how's this gonna go down?
