[in the Watchtower infirmary]
Lucky for The Big K we've got Martian care on our League HMO.
Bolovax physiology is very similar to my own.
And how much of this is guesswork?
I would rather not say.

S1 E15Unfinished Business
And what about this Katma Tui?
KKilowog
I'm not sure what happened to her. She was the Green Lantern who trained John.
They must have been close.
KKilowog
Very close.
[Flash and Kilowog check John's apartment for his power battery; Flash searches the fridge]
Aha, I knew it! Johnny does have a kink in his armor. Bob and Terry's.
[offers Kilowog ice cream; he eats it, container and all]
KKilowog
Delicious!
Riiight. Stick with me big guy, I'll open up a whole new world for you. [Runs over to TV] Hey, check this out! People's exhibit B; [[w:Old Yeller (1957 film)|Old Yeller]].
[Shows Kilowog the videocassette; he eats it.]
KKilowog
Delicious!
Feel the power of my rage! Feel the power of my hate!
Ah, you must be the mystery woman.
And you must be?
Delighted to meet you.
So, do you still snore?
I wouldn't know.
Well, I'd like to stay and relive old times, but...it's the same drill as before.
Duty calls.
Duty calls.
Go! The conquest begins now! Emblazon my word and will across the cosmos!
[John discovers he can no longer use his ring properly]
Then we start over. I trained you once, I can do it again.
Back to basics? I don't think so.
The problem with half the Corps, you included, is that once you learn to use your rings like jackhammers, you forget the subtleties of manipulation and control!
I know, I know - "the mind is the weapon, not the metal."
At least you remember that much. It's time to relearn what you've learned.
Now you sound like Yoda.
Look, you have two choices: let me help you retune your mental disciplines, or you can live with your emerald impotence.
[Flash walks by at the last word]
Impotence? [John and Katma look at him] Right...I-I was just goin' over there...
[Speeds off]
I'm afraid he's finished. When this mission is over, we'll have to recall Rayner to takeover John's sector.
Just like that?
He's given up on himself.
HHakwgirl
He's not the only one. But I guess that's what happens when a toy loses its luster.
[Hawkgirl walks over to John]:
Are you going to need all those power cells?
If that's what it takes. I can still pull my weight, you know. There's more to me than just a fancy ring.
I've always known that, John.
[After binding Katma to the power of Py'tar] Now, who's next? [He goes over to Hawkgirl]
Keep away from her!
The wings give her an exotic quality, wouldn't you agree? I don't think I'll put her in the army. I have just the place for her. As one of my personal attendants.
Don't even think about it.
Okay, we are officially spooked here.
PTPy'tar
Hear me, o children of Kalanor. Behold, I am the Py'tar, the living soul of this planet. Despero is a great deceiver. He has misused my power for his own petty ends. I say unto thee the Py'tar is not a source of hatred, but a beacon of hope. In times gone by, Kalanor was a paradise. It can be again. But thou must reject the dark ways of Despero and step into the light. The choice is thine.
[The Justice League is attacking the White House, with Luthor in the Oval Office]
PLPresident Luthor
[to himself] They couldn't see the beauty! No imagination! They'd rather fight!
[Superman bursts into the office]
Even this wasn't enough for you, was it? You had to have it all. Now we're on the brink of a war that could destroy the whole planet!
PLPresident Luthor
Could've been so perfect... paradise...
And I let it get this far because of the law. And the will of the people.
PLPresident Luthor
[laughing] The people?! This is all their fault! And they're gonna burn for it! Burn!
You're nothing but a mad dog now, aren't you?
PLPresident Luthor
Ooh, a threat! But this old dog still has a few teeth!
[Pulls out a drawer with a control box, and poises his finger above a red button. There is a pause.]
There are at least six different ways I can stop you right now.
PLPresident Luthor
But they all involve deadly force, don't they? And you don't do that. [Superman is silent] No. You need me. You wouldn't be much of a hero without a villain, and you do love being a hero, don't you? The cheering children, the swooning women - you love it so much, it's made you my most reliable accomplice!
Accomplice?! What're you-
PLPresident Luthor
You could have crushed me any time you wanted. And it wasn't the law or the will of the people that stopped you - it was your ego. Being a hero was too important to you. You're as much responsible for this as I am! So go ahead. Fix it somehow, put me on trial, lock me up - but I'll beat it. And then we'll start the whole thing all over again.
...I did love being a hero. But if this is where it leads... I'm done with it. [eyes glow red]
[Lord Green Lantern and Lord Hawkgirl arrive at the college protest]
Punks.
Remember when everyone liked us?
Since when does that matter to you?
Since I started seeing the fear on everyone's face.
You wanna talk about fear? When I was a kid, I went to bed every night scared that the whole world was gonna blow up. That's the way things were back then, and folks just accepted it. They didn't think there could be a better way. Well, we found one.
So, do you sleep better now?
You know I do.
[Lord Superman eating soup with Lois Lane at her Apartment]
Cold.
LLLois Lane
It's Gazpacho, it's supposed to be.
I wasn't talking about the soup. You gonna tell me what's wrong?
LLLois Lane
After 2 years, you don't know?
Here we go.
LLLois Lane
The world's on permanent lockdown, free speech is all but dead, and you don't know what's wrong?
Lois, we've been over this a thousand times. Why can't you see the bigger picture?
LLLois Lane
I can see just fine, thank you. You're the one who can't see where this is leading.
Lois, we're doing everything we can to- [Lord Superman's Comlink beeps] Just a sec. Yeah?
LLLois Lane
Go ahead, finish. You're doing everything you can to what, make sure everyone bows down, and worship you? Is that it?
That's not what we want! Can't you just listen for a second?!
Ah, love. Sorry to interrupt, but I need to see you and the others.
I'm busy.
Now.
I gotta go.
LLLois Lane
We're not done with this.
I know. Believe me, I know.
LLLois Lane
You can't just write me off, like-like I'm some kind of hysterical- [Lois tries to follow Lord Superman out the door but is stopped by two Police Officers ]
PPolice Officer A
Sorry, Ms. Lane. But you know the rules: No leaving the premises, no unauthorized guests, no phone calls.
LLLois Lane
Can't speak my mind, can't think.
PBPolice Officer B
It's only temporary, ma'am. They gave us their word.
LLLois Lane
Sucker. [Closes the door]
