Supergirl quotes

Kara

I am not in the Friend Zone.

Alex

You've spent more time in the Friend Zone than the Phantom Zone.

Kara

Ms. Grant just won the Siegel Prize for Woman in Media.

Winn

Oh, yes, she already knows. I didn't know she could smile if it wasn't based on cruelty to others.

I met Supergirl. She was amazing. And she was so much prettier in person.

Cat

Oh. Well... did you notice any of her other attributes?

Um, she's super strong...

Cat

And smart and brave and kind and she saved you all. Tell me, what do you think makes her a hero?

I'd say her legs. Definitely her legs. Her heart, Mom.

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.

Kara

Can you hack into hospital records?

Winn

Easy-peasy, fresh and squeezy... It's not something a man would say.

Alex

Kara risks her life to protect other people, and she is a hero, and yet I do the same, and I'm in trouble? That is perfect.

Alex

Where are you?

Kara

I'm a little busy.

Alex

You said you would be here.

Kara

And I will be. I'm just dealing with an escaped alien prisoner.

Kara

Chocolate pecan pie is the best dessert in the galaxy, and as someone who's been to twelve different planets, I mean that literally.

Cat

Leslie, you and I got through you not supporting Hilary in 2008, we can get through this.

Kara was a little girl from another planet. She lost everything. I didn't know how to do anything but accept her. You are my daughter, Alex. I wanted you to be better than me, but that never meant I didn't love you. You have always been my Supergirl.

Hank

I once told you, there are people out there who fear your cousin. It's not because he has god-like powers. It's because of what he might do to them if he ever lost his temper.

I got $20 on the robot.

Alex

Forty on the alien.

Cat

But the real key Kiera, is that you need to figure out what's really bothering you. For example, I am so furious with my mother, so I took it out on you. And you are so mad at me, but... And this is the important bit, you weren't really mad at me.

Kara

Actually, I kind of was.

Cat

No. You were really mad, at something else. You need to find, find that anger behind the anger. And you need to figure out what is really making you mad.

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.

Kara

Would you like me to call your mother a car?

Cat

She can take her broom.
