In the future, I just live in the open. All Legionnaires do. There's no secret identities, no disguises. 24/7, I'm just... me, Mon-El from the Legion of Super-Heroes. And it's still exhausting.
I know what you're going through. I actually do. I had a very... complicated relationship with my dad. He actually tried to, um... to kill me, too, believe it or not. But you know, for the longest time... Dude, I was terrified that whatever made him what he was, like, that was inside of me, too. You know, that... evil.
Argo was spared the fate of the rest of Krypton. But what value is our civilization if we don't use our stolen time to right the sins of the past? We must set an example for future generations, or else our survival means nothing. [hands Kara a fragment of the Urrica rock]
It was a pleasure meeting you. I'm very fond of your daughter, as are many others on Earth and across time. You should be very proud of what she's become.
AZAlura Zor-El
I am. [to Kara] It's amazing that something so small and unremarkable can hold the key to so much survival.
You know, when you first approached me about working at the D.E.O., I was failing med school, I was drunk, and I was completely lost. But you, J'onn, you gave me purpose. You know, something to stand up for, something to devote my life for. But today, I risked my life for it. You know, I jumped straight across without hesitating, without even thinking. And to be honest, I mean that wasn't even the tallest building I've jumped off of in the line of duty.
Yeah. Exactly. And that's who I am. It's just... baked into me. You know, jumping buildings, making enemies, that's all part of the job. But the irony here is, is that the thing I had to do to save myself is the very same thing that could've killed me. I mean, one more inch... and I would've died. And then, where would she be? [nods towards Ruby] I broke up with Maggie because I wanted to be a mother. And one day, I will be. You know, whether I'm with somebody or if I'm doing it by myself. I know that's what I want. And I know that that is who I am. Just like I know that I'm the person that's gonna jump the buildings to stop the bad guy. And I... I keep wondering, I mean, can those two people co-exist? And is that fair? Is it fair to the person that I'm coming home to?
You may be the person who jumps the building to stop the bad guy, but you're also one of the most intelligent and intuitive women I know. You are an incredible agent and I know you're going to be an incredible mother. So when the time is right, I know you'll make the choice that's right for you.
I'm really gonna miss you guys. This world was so foreign and terrifying, but over the years I've learned to feel safe here. It's been an honor protecting this planet and being protected by it. And I owe all of that to you.
[voice-over during montages of Supergirl's and Kara Danvers' farewell parties] You are my friends who understand me and make me laugh. You are my role models, who have built me into a leader and shown me what it means to find fulfillment in the work we do. This world has given me a family. In taking this chance to revisit my home, my first home, I'm bringing you all with me in my heart. And I'm at peace knowing you'll be holding down the fort here until I'm back. And this is not "Goodbye". It's "See you on the flip side." Or as we say on Krypton: "Kaoshuh" – "To be continued."
You have brought me much joy in my time on your Earth, Alex. You and your friends have shown me strange and wonderful things. You know, you have a rare gift for intuiting the feelings of others. You would have made an excellent Green Martian. [Both J'onn and Alex become emotional.] Most of all, you have given me the great gift of witnessing your love for my son. Home is not a place. It is living among those who love and honor you. I can depart this world with peace, because I know my son is home.
[choking up] It has been a great honor getting to spend time with you, M'yrnn. And now I know where J'onn... gets his dignity... and his enormous heart. [hugs M'yrnn]
[hesitantly] Uh... yeah. Yeah, I was, but then, uh, the time beacon broke and, and Kara ran into some troubles, so I, uh... I decided to stay back to...
