S1 E15Unfinished Business

You know, I've been talking to some of the regulars, and apparently Earth males are only supposed to express their feelings about sports and occasionally monster trucks. Who knew?

[Kara and a White Martian impersonating Alex are trading punches.]

WMWhite Martian

Well, to tell you the truth, I'm glad they found your sister. It is so exhausting pretending to care about your silly little feelings.

If you hurt her–

WMWhite Martian

You'll what? Whine at me?

CVComputer voice

Core stabilized.

Oh, that was a close one.

Close? We had, like, you know, 12 seconds to spare.

Thank you for saving me.

I should be thanking you. I've been on my own for so long, and... [pause] I had a mother. She wasn't warm, that's not our way, but she cared for me, I know she did. I'd forgotten that feeling until now, what it feels like to have a family. Which is what makes this so hard. [Hank stares at her] I'm going back to Mars.

Why?

There must be other voices like mine. White Martians that have the desire and the capacity to change, who don't want to be defined by the hatred of our kind, but just need a push. To do the right thing!

They could kill you as soon as you land.

Maybe. But if I don't try they're never gonna stop hunting me. You know that's true. You have shown me what it is to stand up and fight, and that's exactly what I'm going to do.

I've just had one of the hardest nights of my life, and I'm heading into something I probably won't survive, but... standing here with you, I feel like everything's going to be okay. You have changed me forever. [takes J'onn's hand and puts her head against his] Goodbye J'onn.

Goodbye... Miss Martian.

I am very excited to meet Alex's new mystery man.

Hey, do we know what he does for a living? Alex's guy?

Cop.

Yeah, no way Alex Danvers dates someone who doesn't own a firearm.

[Alex and Maggie arrive]

Hey, you guys. Hey, um, you all remember Maggie, right?

[after comprehending that Alex and Maggie are dating] Hey, yeah, good to see you again.

Alex! I... I didn't know. [points at Hank] Did you know?

Of course I knew. I'm psychic.

How come you never said anything before?

It's not for me to say. Good for you, Alex.

[cleaning James' wounds] You're lucky you didn't take a direct hit.

Very lucky.

I had my shield. I love that shield. [Kara gives him a pointed look] And I know what I'm doing, Kara.

Even if Metallo is weakening though, he's still a fanatic follower of Lillian Luthor. We have to find out where he's taking Lena and how to help her.

What is it gonna take for you to realize that Lena is a criminal? She's not the victim. She got the kryptonite, he broke her out of prison.

Lena is not a member of Cadmus! She's not! She stopped the game with alien weapons, she saved Alex's life when Corben tried to kill her.

She shot Corben and then her crazy Mom turned Corben into Metallo, so that could've been the plan the entire time.

We have to start treating Lena Luthor like a hostile. The evidence is too overwhelming.

Winn? If you watch that video, I know you'll find something.

I did, it's... it's clean.

Then find something to prove her innocent.

Everything we've seen so far says the exact opposite.

Well, she's my friend, and I believe in her. [leaves room]

[follows Kara out the room] I'm your friend. Which is why I don't understand why it's so hard for you to believe me. People don't remember this, Kara, but Clark and Lex Luthor used to be best friends. For years. And Clark believed in Lex for the longest time. No matter what people said. No matter what kind of proof he saw with his own eyes. No. Lex was his friend. But Clark was wrong.

Lena is not Lex.

But they grew up in the same house, Kara. I don't understand why you keep defending her. And you have so much faith in her, but none in me as Guardian.

That's entirely different. I am trying to protect you.

I do not need your protection. I need your trust. You have mine. I don't understand why it's so hard for me to get yours.

[Winn is working on the computer]

You know, the backseat driving... not helping.

Sorry. Have you found anything yet?

I promise I will tell you. Haven't you ever heard the phrase "a watched pot never..." oh, woah wait a second, I might be simmering.

I'm not one to usually gloat or say "I told you so", but... doesn't seem like I was the one with confirmation bias.

Yesterday, she was guilty. Today, she's not. It's not confirmation bias, Danvers. It's just the news game. Since you got enough time on your hands to stand around and look up at that TV, how 'bout you get out there, get an exclusive on Lena Luthor? This time... try to spell "exclusive" right.

[putting down Kara's article about her] It's a good article. You flatter me.

I only wrote the truth. I'm learning to keep digging, even when all the evidence points one way. There's always another side.

Even when it's hard to find.

Especially when it's hard to find. [pause] So my office is overflowing with flowers...

Really?

Yeah. [both smile] You didn't have to do that.

Yeah, I did. Supergirl told me that it was you who sent her. I don't know how to thank you.

Well, that's what friends are for.

Yeah, never had friends like you before. Come to think of it, I've never had a family like you. No one's ever stood up for me like that.

Now you have someone who will stand up for you, always.

Well, Supergirl may have saved me, but Kara Danvers, you are my hero.

Agent Schott, scan the archives for anything resembling fifth dimensional incursions here on Earth.

Close encounters of the Fifth kind. You got it.

On Earth, it's customary to send messages on Valentine's Day. We had a similar custom on Mars.

Well, it's too bad you can't call her (M'gann).

We Martians are a psychic people. All our communication was through thought. But when we had something really important to say, we would often write it down. On some planets, to write something down is to truly say it.

Hey, pal. How's it goin'?

Oooh, you know, believe it or not, I am having a girl issue.

[more to himself] Good... timing.

Hey. Hey. You're great with girls. They throw themselves at you left and right.

Yeah, not all of them.

C'mon, hit me. I need a... a relationship pearl. C'mon.

Yeah, uh... things were a lot easier on Daxam when I objectified women and didn't care about anyone.

Okay. I feel you. Caring is like... the kiss of death.

See, that's the thing, Mxy. I'm not going to marry you.

MMr. Mxyzptlk

What do you mean?

I brought you to the Fortress in case you got violent again, because I didn't want anyone to get hurt when I broke the news. It's not going to work between us, ever.

MMxyzptlk

But you said... [pause] You don't love me?

Love isn't making demands of someone or forcing them to marry you. Love is putting someone else's needs above your own.

LLyra

I didn't think you'd call.

Why? Last night was, like... beyond amazing on just, just so many levels.

LLyra

I figured it was a one-time thing, for you. An experience. I've never met a human that was actually up for dating an alien.

Weeell, now you have. Look, I'm not naïve, okay? I know that there are lots of people who don't think that humans and aliens should mix. If we're being super-honest, I... potentially falling for an alien is not what scares me. It's falling for anyone. Just have kinda... had my heart trampled on a few times.

LLyra

Me, too.

Lyra, you aren't, like, some experience to me, okay? You are potentially a real, fulfilling, challenging relationship, [quickly] and that's just too much, okay? That's too fast. Woo hoo. Just gonna, um... what do you say we, um... we just take it slow?

LLyra

Sure.

[relieved] Okay.

[Lyra takes Winn's hand.]

LLyra

[whispers] Slow.... Take me to where you live.

[whispers] Yes. Ma'am.
