Chuck Sirianni
What is it, honey?
MMairzey
Your old footlocker's beeping. At first I thought it was the smoke detector.
Chuck Sirianni
That ain't no smoke alarm. It's a sound I never thought I'd hear again. There's trouble on Blackhawk Island.
Aztek didn't find anything else?
Sorry, Superman. It was a bad lead.
Nobody's fault. When you guys do pick up Luthor's trail, call me. I want in.
You know what? This new monitor-duty rotation isn't so bad. No more overnights unless you want them. Only one shift a week and you're done. Wally?
I'm telling you, you should let it grow out.
[Flash is staring at Fire from across the room]
Why don't you just go talk to her?
What, me? Talk to her No way!
Yeah, you'd probably be wasting your time anyway. I hear she's...
you know... [Flash looks curiously at her]
If you're afraid to talk to her, I'll tell her for you. [Starts walking over to Fire]
Got something for you. Tell Hawkgirl your story, Mr. Sirianni.
Chuck Sirianni
We met a while back, ma'am. Longer for me than for you. When you traveled in time to World War II, you fought alongside my squadron.
You're one of the Blackhawks.
Chuck Sirianni
Only one still kicking, I'm sorry to say.
Chuck Sirianni
During the war and for decades after, we captured a lot of weapons. Real sci-fi stuff. We hid the worst of it on Blackhawk Island. We decommissioned the place over 30 years ago. But this morning, the old security alarm went off. Might be nothing.
Or it might be someone raiding your armory. We'll take a look. Shayera out. Pick a third for the team.
Oh, Yob Shiggurath! Hey, Fire!
We've got a mission. Let's go.
Chuck Sirianni
I'm not going to argue with you about this.
MMairzey
I didn't come to argue. It gets cold up there.
Allow me. Something of a specialty of mine.
You haven't said a word the whole trip.
I was hoping this mission would give us a chance to get to know each other a little better.
I understand — you're very deep in thought, mentally preparing for the battle. No time for women — I understand. Oh!
Oops! Sorry. Two bogeys closing fast. I'm losing it. We're going down. Get ready to bail. Ejector pod's off-line. We're gonna have to do this the hard way. I got it.
Chuck Sirianni
Hawk! Aah!
Don't you ever scare me like that again! [stalks off]
[To Fire] She loves me. She's like the big sister I never had, only... you know. Short.
Chuck Sirianni
Wait up. I know everything there is to know about this island. You're going to need my help.
We've got it covered. And, no offense, but you're a little old for this kind of work.
Chuck Sirianni
Something's activated the island's defense grid.You wanna make it outta here alive, I'm coming with you. Whoever's on the island will be headed for master control. That's in a bunker under the Blackhawk Victory Museum.
Where you stored the weapons you captured?
Chuck Sirianni
Yeah, there's some serious ordnance there. Even got a couple of old war wheels.
Wasn't all that stuff destroyed in the war?
Chuck Sirianni
Don't believe everything you see on the Documentary Channel.
[Lex is holding Chuck hostage]
Chuck Sirianni
[to the Leaguers] I'm sorry. If I were 20 years younger...
You'd still be ancient. Keep quiet!
WCWatchtower Computer
Island self-destruct sequence initiated. Three minutes to detonation.
Chew on that for a while. We're leaving. If you follow, you know what happens to him. What did you do? Don't bother. We got what we came for.
Forget it. There's still time for me to run us out to the water.
No. I'm not going to let all this history be lost. I can't crack the code, but maybe if I...
Chuck Sirianni
You better let me do that.
WCWatchtower Computer
Self-destruct sequence canceled.
Chuck Sirianni
Can't fix everything by hitting it.
