SupergirlWhy don't you take the stick out, Corporal?
Captain.
SupergirlHe asked you a question!
Don't answer him! That's classified inform-
Supergirl[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.
SupergirlSo, 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. [He turns and begins to leave] And incidentally, you did good.
SupergirlYou 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.
SupergirlAt 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.
SupergirlHuh.
[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.
SupergirlWell, 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.
SupergirlRoger. Hey! Butane breath!
[Captain Atom screams]
[Captain Atom screams]
Say "ah," dirt bag.
[Gilbert Halstrom painting]
[Gilbert Halstrom gasps]
SupergirlWhat's with the running, doc? We both know how this is gonna turn out.
I didn't tell anyone! I swear!
SupergirlGood. Then you're the only loose end.
[Supergirl grunts]
[Gilbert Halstrom whimpering]
SupergirlYou can scream now, if you want.
[Gilbert Halstrom screaming]
[Supergirl screams]
[Supergirl panting]
Hmm. I've never fully understood the mechanics of dreams. I don't have them myself.
SupergirlWell, this one's doing a number on my ceiling, and Pa Kent's getting tired of patching it.
I will say this. What I saw was far more linear than ordinary dream logic. But it didn't seem like a memory either. It was inconclusive.
SupergirlYou mean... I might actually have done these things?
I'm sorry. I just don't know.
Don't listen to this guy, everything's conspiracies with him.
Not "conspiracies". Conspiracy. Singular.
Reaching back to ancient Egypt, there's been a single cabal of powerful individuals directing the course of human history. But the common man prefers to believe they don't exist, which aids their success.
Supergirl[reading newspaper clippings] Global warming, military upheavals in the third world, actors elected to public office...
The spread of coffee bars, germs outpacing antibiotics, and boy bands? Come on! Who would gain from all this?
Who indeed?
SupergirlThese weren't just dreams, they felt like they really happened!
I dunno, I've had some dreams that felt mighty real. [glances over his shoulder at Black Canary] There was this one the other night... [eats a French fry thoughtfully]
Hold your horses! No one asked for more help. This whole trip might just prove the kid shouldn't eat nachos before bed.
Peanut butter sandwiches.
SupergirlHow did y- what, do you go through my trash?!
Please... I go through everyone's trash.
[Supergirl has just been attacked by an android.]
Standard Z8 Combat Trainer.
Like the ones we use. The League buys 'em in bulk.
SupergirlSo?
So who do we buy them from?
SupergirlThe Army, I thin... Oh, wait a minute...
Another fun fact: The man who commissioned the Z8 Project? The same man who put you in the hospital.
SupergirlGeneral Hardcastle? He's retired now, isn't he?
Gone. And hoping to be forgotten.
Figured someone would come for me some day. Only, I thought they'd be from the other side. [aiming his weapon at Supergirl] This weapon fires a projectile of kryptonite pellets suspended in a liquid silicon core. Causes maximum scatter on impact. Only gets one shot, but trust me, alien, it'll do the job.
SupergirlWe're not here to hurt you. We just have some questions.
Sorry if I don't take your word for it. As I recall, your kind can be fickle.
[After a tense moment Green Arrow steps in front of Supergirl]
Okay, now what, smart guy? Use up your magic bullet on me, and you're left with one very ticked off Supergirl.
[General Hardcastle grunts]
Now, be a good host and tell us a story.
[The brief distraction gives Question the chance to easily disarm Hardcastle]
The army shut me out after Superman invaded. The feeling upstairs was I failed when it counted most, so how could I lead again? I got the message and took early retirement. Problem is, I know too much. One of these days they’ll decide to shut me up. The military and big business have been in cahoots for decades. Top secret stuff. Experiments on metahumans, mutants, aliens. Searching for new technologies both for national security and profit. That Volcano Woman? She was one of ours. Same with those freaks the Joker made up like playing cards.
Any of it have to do with Supergirl?
It has to do with all of them. Your little club up in that spaceship? There’s a file on every one of you. But I don’t know anything about these dreams of yours. If it is connected to these people, I’ve been out of the loop too long to know.
And how do we find "these people"?
You don't. They find you.
Sorry, kid. Dead end I guess.
Not necessarily. Need some time to process this. Martian, pick us up.
What? I told you everything I... Supergirl?
Yes. And no. Friends call me Tea. Are you a friend, general?
[General Hardcastle yells]
[Hardcastle lunges for his kryptonite gun but Galatea quickly destroys it with her heat vison]
Guess that's a no.
So, what do you think? It's important that you like yourself. And I'm you, just accelerated a few extra years. Plus better trained. And I have to say, a heck of a lot smarter.
SupergirlYou lured us here. After your lackeys couldn't get rid of me at Star, you decided to deal with me yourself on your home turf.
It's like you're reading my mind. Which is actually the problem. And why you have to die.
Next time, get your own dreams.
SupergirlWho do you work for?
Really? At the top. Even I don't know that, but I do know I can't work in secret if you keep seeing what I do. So, sayonara sister.
That's not the only thing.
[leading the rest to a hiding place] This is it.
SupergirlA barber shop?
Got to hand it to you, Luthor - NOBODY would think to look for you here.
[Captain Atom is trying to stop Superman and Huntress from rescuing Question]
This is ridiculous. If you're not gonna help us, get out of our way!
Not an option, Superman. I've got my orders, legal and proper.
Dude, Superman just told you to step aside.
I heard him, ma'am. Not gonna happen. [Superman makes to move past him, but he forms red energy with his fists and punches Superman across the room with ease] I control radiation, Superman. That includes red sun radiation.
Get Question out of here. Don't wait for me.
What made you think I was gonna.
Call J'onn for transport, when you get outside. This buiding's commlink shielded.
Nobody's going anywhere with Question. Thought I made that clear.
You shouldn't have come from me.
[Huntress and Question are trying to escape, she tries opening a door]
You shouldn't have snuck away without me. Locked. Sure, why not?
Just about enough of the energy blasts.
I can't make it.
Sure you can. This is Huntress. Two for emergency pickup.
You are no longer a member of the Justice League. Clear this channel and--
Save it. Cue it down and we're under fire get us out of here then scan the area. Superman won't be far behind us.
Taught a good fight. Stay down.
I can't do that, Superman.
[A Cadmus medic is about to see to Captain Atom, Superman intervenes]
Don't you touch him! He's Justice League. [Carries Captain Atom out]
Wait. Get this off my face. Aerosol in my coat pocket.
SupergirlWhat happened?
Cadmus turned him against us.
SupergirlNo way. He'd never do that.
But he did, and so did Professor Hamilton. Hamilton's working for Cadmus. He's probably the one who--
SupergirlCloned me. Why?
He was afraid of us. I'm sorry, Kara.
SupergirlDon't be. Just tell me when we're gonna go and shut them down.
One stop first. Wait here.
What's going on? :Huntress: He's gonna be fine, but he needs his rest.
I'll only be a moment.
It's okay, Helena.
Five minutes.
[Huntress removes the Question's mask, revealing his true - though battered and bruised - face]
You were right. I am the ugliest guy of all time.
Not in my eyes. [kisses him]
What happened, Question? How did Cadmus get ahold of you?
I went to kill Luthor so that you wouldn't be able to.
That's not how we do things.
How do we do things, Superman? Your counterpart killed Luthor, this Luthor is scheming to enrage you--
Doing a pretty good job of it.
Ruining your reputation, turning your friends and comrades against you, creating a superpowered arms race - but you cannot succumb.
I can shut down Cadmus without killing Luthor.
Carry on, then. If you're wrong, it's not like it's the end of the world... right?
SupergirlPut him down!
Sure. I was pretty much done with him anyway.
SupergirlWhat do you think you're doing?
Oh, I'm about to set the reactor to overload and blow the Watchtower to bits, but what I'm hoping is that you'll be dumb enough to try and stop me. Uh-oh. What's wrong, hero? Not strong enough? Maybe that's because I'm the real hero here. Your Justice League is a bunch of dangerous loose cannons, and I'm going to shut your down.
SupergirlWho do you think you're kidding? You don't care about what the League does. Admit it, you just wanna beat me.
I've already beaten you, but I'm going to make it last.
SupergirlYou know what? Now matter how bad you beat me, I'm real, not a clone.
Shut up!
SupergirlDeep down you know the truth. You're not a person. You're just a weapon, grown out of one of Hamilton's petri dishes.
Shut up! Pitiful. What?
The mission is scrubbed. Do you hear me? Stand down and await further instructions.
I'm not reading you. Can you repeat?
Call of the Ultimen. Do you hear me? Call--
Wrong number.
[Supergirl screaming]
Kara. Power reboot in eighteen seconds.
SupergirlRight.
When I get rid of you, I'll be the only--
[Galatea screaming]
SupergirlI'm worried about them, Steel. I'm worried about my cousin.
Don't be. Everybody in the League is good at their job, but those seven? They're the best ever. Not because they're the most powerful - they aren't. Not all of them. And it's not just because they were the first. It's because they're special. They've proven it time and again. They make the hard choices, they set the example. They do what's right, not what's easiest. And they always come out on top. They're gonna be okay, Kara. We all are.
Shoot. I know. I was hoping they'd be out looking for us.
No. shoot.
Obliterate them.
Okay, big guy, that's as far as you go.
You can't stop Validus with that toy.
Rusty, I got him right where I want him.
No!
SupergirlJohn, stop! Fight it.
Kara. I knew what I was doing, but I couldn't stop.
Where are we?
Last thing I remember was... Oh, no.
Just so you know, the sharp part's on the other end, chief.
Believe me, that's coming.
Aah!
Tear him to bits. Slowly.
We wanted to say thanks by making you honorary legionnaires.
It's very nice, but I already have a ring.
Don't worry about it, GL. You can't keep it anyway. If you took it home, the future technology could pollute the time stream.
SupergirlI'm keeping mine. I'm not going back. Kara? History says Supergirl never returned from this mission because she decided to stay in the future.
Whatever abducted them didn't leave any energy signature. Maybe Dr. Fate or Zatanna? Where's Kara?
She asked us to give you this.
SupergirlTell Ma and Pa I love them. And I love you too, Clark. Don't take this the wrong way, but I've found a place where I can make a difference. Where I'm more than just Superman's kid cousin. I... I feel I belong here. Also, I met this boy.
You should have seen her. She was amazing.
She's a grown woman now, capable of choosing--
Kara's headstrong, but she's always made good decisions. I trust her judgment. But you were right, Ollie. I wish I had told her.
It's okay, Clark. She knows.
Now, this boy Kara likes so much, does he have a name?
