Supergirl quotes from Supergirl

Supergirl

She's as strong as me. She flies like me, she fights like me, except for that the fact that she talks like Cookie Monster, she is exactly like me.

Supergirl

People of National City, this is Supergirl, and... I hope you can hear me. We have been attacked. Mothers and fathers, friends and neighbors, children, everyone, suddenly stopped by a force of evil as great as this world has ever known. Your attacker has sought to take your free will. Your individuality. Your spirit, everything that makes you who you are. When facing an attack like this, it's easy to feel hopeless. We retreat, we lose our strength, we lose ourselves. I know. I lost everything when I was young. When I first landed on this planet, I was sad and alone. But I found out that there is so much love in this world, out there for the taking. And you, the people of National City, you helped me. You let me be who I'm meant to be. You gave me back to myself. You made me stronger than I ever thought possible, and I love you for that. Now, in each and every one of you, there is a light, a spirit that cannot be snuffed out. That won't give up. I need your help again. I need you to hope. Hope... that you will remember that you can all be heroes. Hope... that when faced with an enemy determined to destroy your spirit, you will fight back and thrive. Hope... that those who once may have shunned you will, in a moment of crisis, come to your aid. Hope... that you will see again the faces of those you love. And perhaps even those you've lost.

Fellow citizens of America, these are complicated times. Some of you are confused, many of you are scared. You just found out that the President of the United States is not from northern Iowa like you thought. She's from a planet somewhere out in the vast universe. Many of you feel betrayed because you were lied to. President Marsdin took responsibility for that. She resigned from office. But the fear that's spreading in this country like wildfire isn't because the president lied. It's because she comes from someplace different. All of you know that I am also from a different place, another planet. But I've lived here long enough to know that it doesn't matter where we were born, because we are all the same. The character of a person, or alien, is not defined by where we are from, but by what we do. The people that exposed President Marsdin wanted to divide us. They want us to turn on one another, live in fear, grow in hate. But I know we are better than that. I know we can work together with love and respect, treat our neighbors with kindness. I'm an alien, and I love this planet that I am proud to call home. I want what we all want: to be a good American. I will stand by the new administration as this nation begins to heal. And I'll continue to protect my friends and neighbors just as I always have. I hope you will all do the same.

Supergirl

Just because I don't work at the D.E.O. anymore doesn't mean I'm going to stop being a hero. No matter what you say.

Hank

I see you share your cousin's appetite for wanton destruction, Miss Danvers.

Supergirl

You know, I am starting to answer to Supergirl.

Cat

It's you. Oh, no. I'm sorry. I meant to say who are you?

Supergirl

According to you, I'm Supergirl.

Cat

Trademark pending.

Maxwell Lord

What can I get you? Or are you not allowed to drink and fly? I don't know the rules.

Supergirl

Caught your press conference. I was surprised, you're usually a little more glib.

Maxwell

There's nothing to be glib about. A sick little girl lost her father.

Supergirl

That little girl is being treated by a doctor who has a lifetime grant from your company. You said, tonight, you always build in fail safes. Like the kill switches in those bombs. Something tells me that there was a fail-safe in Knox's bomb, too. One that you could've remotely activated if I didn't save you in time. You forced Knox to plant those bombs in exchange for saving his daughter's life.

Maxwell

I would never barter a child's life. I can't speak for Knox's motives. He clearly went insane.

Supergirl

Maybe you didn't expect Knox to vaporize himself, but I do know this was all a ruse. I just can't figure out why you did it.

Maxwell

Fascinating theory. Unprovable, but worth exploring. I suspect that, whoever was responsible for these attacks, might be curious about you, Supergirl. What is she made of? How does she do it?

Supergirl

You were testing me.

Maxwell

And what would these tests have shown us? The drone would measured your agility. The building explosion, your strength. The next bomb would have demonstrated your speed while also revealing you're not actually invincible. But the results of that last test are the most intriguing of all. You chose to save a hundred people on that train, instead of thousands at the airport. One might deduce that there was someone on that train that you cared about. And finding that person is the key to revealing who you really are... when you're not flying around wearing that "S".

Supergirl

For the record, I care about everyone. You may have fooled this city, but I know you were behind this. And I'm watching you. This isn't over.

Maxwell

Finally, something we can agree on. [Supergirl flies out the window] The fun is just beginning.

You let that thing get away. I thought you were on our side.

Supergirl

I tried. It fought harder this time, harder. Faster. Like it's learned a thing or two from the last go.

It's like it knew you'd choose to save those people. The tornado was just a diversion to get away. He used your humanity against you.

And now more innocent humans could be in danger. If anything else happens, you and the D.E.O. will both be held accountable.

Hank

That's enough, General. My team analyzed Red Tornado's covering. It's made out of a biosyntheic polymer which contains traces of lead. To suppress x-ray vision, right? The android wasn't meant to fight insurgents. It was designed to kill Kryptonians.

You got Fort Rozz aliens locked up downstairs. Monsters. Abominations. Some of them have wings. Some have horns. And others spit acid. Do you know the difference between them and her? She's blonde.

Hank

She saved you and your daughter, tonight. You don't owe fear and contempt. You owe her a thank you.

Non

You remember me, little girl?

Supergirl

You're Non. Astra's husband.

Non

To think that you're the last daughter of the once great House of El.

Supergirl

You're gonna wish I'd died with the rest of them!

Supergirl

You know, you guys could have told me. I can keep a secret.

No, you can't.

Supergirl

You can feel like this all the time, you know. Free. Untethered. True to who you really are.

Hank

The world needs Hank Henshaw more than it needs J'onn J'onzz.

Supergirl

I'm not leaving you alone with that thing

Hank

You have to. I'm done.

Supergirl

Done? Done with what? It has Alex. We've got to stop it.

Hank

This started because it wanted me dead- with my race gone if I'm all that's left. Let it have me.

Supergirl

No! This murderer does not get to win. And you don't get to give up!

Hank

It will save Alex.

Supergirl

We don't get to choose. We fight!

Supergirl

I ask myself everyday why my mother didn't crawl into that pod with me. Now I know she felt guilty. She felt responsible for what happened on Krypton. That dying must've seemed... honorable But dying is a lot easier than getting back up when the world has ended. You have to get up. You have to go on.

Hank

My road is done. I'll help Alex and then join my people wherever they are.

Hank

[after putting Kryptonite restraints on Supergirl] I'm sorry. But I can't let you stop me.

Supergirl

J'onn. J'onn. J'onn. Listen to me. I lost everything - everyone. It makes a hole in your heart. But you can't fall into it. You have to fill it. You have to fight. Do not throw away who you are. If you do that thing wins. The last son of Mars dies even if you're still standing.

Alex

He all but admitted it. He took all those girls. All seven. Even the Bizarro you.

Hank

Is that what we're calling it?

Supergirl

Another Catco trademark.
