Legends of Tomorrow · Season 1
Let me guess: you're afraid of snakes.
And you're not?
Animals only lash out only if they're provoked or desperate. Your slithery friend wasn't trying to hurt you. He just thought you were part of the tree.
So you commune with all animals?
Mm-hmm.
You're like an attractive Doctor Dolittle.
But hey, the sun is setting, maybe I should go out catch us an iguana and prepare some of my world-famous iguana soup.
Nah, I'm good. I brought energy bars from the ship.
What? Energy bars?
Mm-hmm.
Come on, Nate, we're in the Cretaceous Period. You have to at least try the local cuisine.
[Stein is pacing around the medical bay nervously.]
Sit down, Professor.
His heart is beating way too fast.
I said "Sit".
I know you think I'm overreacting-
No, I don't. You care for the kid. I get it. But the way you're acting's not doing him any favors.
Oh, how should I act, Mr. Rory?! Please enlighten me with your vast emotional wisdom!
Well, you seem to forget I had a partner, too. The reason Snart and I got on so well was, well, we... we trusted one another. We were friends. We had each other's backs.
Perhaps you've chosen the wrong analogy. Your partner... is dead.
Yeah, well, I'm still on the ship.
Your point?
You're not exactly a spring chicken, Professor.
Your point!
My point is you're not gonna be around for too much longer. And Jax has to learn how to do this stuff himself. Stop treating him like a kid, and more like a partner. [pushes his beer bottle into Stein's hands] Partner.
You're Gideon?
Hello, Captain Lance.
But you're like... I mean, you're really...
Human?
I was gonna say "hot", but yeah, that too.
Gideon.
Yes, Captain?
I'm really sorry for everything I put you through.
Forcing me to disable the ship? Or our kiss?
How did you...
If it's the latter,... I rather enjoyed it.
[subdued] As did I, Gideon. As did I.
I think I may have found a way to track Commander Heywood.
Don't worry, Mr. Hunter, we've already found him.
You did?
We're heading to Houston, 1970.
Yeah. Elvis at the Astrodome.
And then we're gonna rescue my grandfather.
Then Elvis.
We still need to figure out a way of contacting Commander Heywood without arousing suspicion. To that end, I suggest that we --
It's simple. We infiltrate NASA.
[Everyone else agrees, Sara claps Rip on the shoulder.]
[Professor Stein has just embarrassed himself by singing The Banana Boat Song inside Mission Control as a distraction, with Mick joining in.]
What the hell are you two playing at?
[over the radio] Okay. I got it. I cut the feed.
Oh, it's a... It's a British tradition, sir.
Flight! I had radio contact for a second, then I lost it again.
Nice voice, Professor.
Thank you very much.
Menial labor without super-speed is really quite tedious. Then again, I've missed working with a fellow scientist. Cisco and Caitlin and I, as you know, worked together for some time and... I miss the camaraderie.
Legion of Doom doesn't have karaoke Fridays?
I know it's easier for you to think of me as a monster, but, um... I've met some of history's monsters, Raymond, and believe me, I'm not one of them.
You killed Barry's mother. Twice. Rex Tyler. Brainwashed Rip into killing Doctor Mid-Nite.
Time travel has a way of revealing the truth to you. And you and I have more in common than you think.
Pass me the pliers.
[passing the pliers] We're both scientists. We're obsessed with achieving the impossible. You've dedicated your life to learning how to shrink yourself down to the size of an atom, and I spent mine learning the secrets of the Speed Force.
I became the Atom to help people.
You could use the dwarf star in your exo-suit to power an entire city, but instead, you chose to become the Atom because you weren't satisfied with your small, pathetic life. There is no shame in wanting to be greater. To reach higher. To... walk on the Moon.
Is that why you want the Spear? Reach higher, become greater? Run faster?
No. I'm after something much more... elemental. I want to live.
[Henry Heywood has sealed himself inside the cargo bay, preparing to sacrifice his life to save the ship.]
Hank! Hank! Hank! Don't! Don't do this!
I am so sorry, Nathaniel.
No. No, you open that door, the explosive decompression will suck you out.
If I don't, you will all die.
I can do it. Let me do it. I have powers now.
No. No. I won't let you risk your life. I have fulfilled my duty, protecting my piece of the Spear. But I'm just a grunt. Now it's your turn. You can figure out a way to destroy the Spear. Don't let it ruin another person's life.
Your son is at Mission Control. He's there. He's waiting for you. C'mon.
Give him a message for me. Tell him... I'm sorry for leaving.
Don't. Please don't, please don't.
[Henry winks at Nate, then opens the cargo bay door and gets pulled out into space.]
[Sara finds Rip having a drink in the parlor.]
Drinking alone?
Only as metaphor.
[pouring herself a drink] You in here feeling sorry for yourself?
Oh, no. I've got more than one way of feeling sorry for myself, surely.
Thanks for backing my play earlier.
I wasn't... entirely supportive on this mission.
Indeed. But still... must be hard, coming back to your ship and finding someone else in charge.
No. That was the easy part. The hard adjustment was seeing that you are a much better captain than I ever was.
So that's why you're in here feeling sorry for yourself.
I'm in here trying to figure out what my place is if I'm not this team's captain.
So you're saying you don't fit in. You're an outcast. A misfit.
Let's assume.
Sounds to me like you're a Legend.
[Sara and Rip regard one another, then clink glasses.]
What's your favorite candy?
Jelly beans. Why?
[Jax transmutates the container protecting a piece of the Spear of Destiny into jelly beans]
A little transmutation trick me and Gray have been working on.
[Walks over to eat a jelly bean] Both delicious and impressive, Mr. Jackson.
So, it looks like our historians have made a discovery.
According to this map, the blood of Christ is hidden right smack in the middle of no-man's land.
Great, right at the center of the bloodiest battle in human history.
Even if we were to make it through the terrain unscathed, there's still the issue of the blood's precise location.
That's the good news. Just as the Spear acted as a divining rod for its pieces, it glows when it's close to Jesus' blood.
But one cannot simply walk into the middle of a war zone.
You hear them, too, huh? The voices. What's the Spear saying to you?
It's not the Spear. It's my mother. Her voice, at least. She's begging me to help our people. To keep our family and our legacy safe. She wants me to change my destiny.
Maybe the Spear can do that for her.
The chance to rewrite reality. Who wouldn't be tempted? What do your hear?
My parents.
What are they saying?
"Don't play with fire, Mick."
Attention, all combatants. May I have your attention, please? There are casualties on the battlefield. Brave men on both sides who are in urgent need of medical attention. I know that the divisions between us run deep, that they may very well be insurmountable. But I implore both of our armies for this one moment to come together as allies and honor a ceasefire, so that the injured may be removed from the field of battle. There may come a day when our courage fails us, when we forsake our friendships and break the bonds of fellowship. But today is not that day. And perhaps in showing our humanity, we might just save it.
Now the Spear of Destiny is in the hand of not just one, but four psychopaths.
Don't forget Mr. Rory.
That's right. We trusted him and he screwed us over.
Did we? Trust him? I admit it, we never really did, and he picked up on it.
Apparently, Mr. Rory is not entirely stupid.
