Russell

Look, we get that you're looking out for us, but Stephen called it. At some point we have got to stop playing defense, and fight back. I mean we've hiding out down here for two years.

Which is two years longer than any of us would have survived up top.

We are all for survival. But if we're not going to stand up for our own, what's the point of surviving?

Russell

(about John's meeting with Jedikiah) No! No way. It's a trap.

What you just said could be interpreted in the negative. Meaning there's no possibility of it being a trap.

Russell

I meant, no way it isn't a trap, you literal-minded hunk of crap.

So it turns out our resident klepto is actually a mad musical genius.

Like a violin prodigy or something?

Russell

Oh, 'cause I'm Asian I must play the violin.

It's gonna work.

Says who? Some crusty old professor friend of your father's?

Limbo exists, I've seen it. Stopping time while teleporting is the only way to get there. Maybe you're not trying hard enough.

Oh, I'm teleporting just fine. You're the one who's supposed to stop time mid-jump.

Russell

It can't be done! It's like farting and sneezing at the same time. Scientifically impossible.

(referring to his mother's boyfriend) Look, Cara, I know our kind can't kill, but what if he just chops off our hands and leaves us out here to starve or freeze to death?

Wow, we went straight to the dark place, huh?

Have you seen any horror movies? How are things at the Batcave?

Well, Russ is still laid up, but he hasn't lost his acquired sense of humor. Now I have to listen to his semi-coherent jokes and pretend they're funny.

Russell

I can hear you.

I know.

Russell

Talk to me, mama. What's happening?

I couldn't get close. Stephen and his Ultra gal-pal were crowding the scene.

Russell

But what do you think? Did a breakout actually bump someone off?

Clearly Jedikiah thinks so.

Russell

It doesn't make sense. How?

We can't rule out the possibility of an evolutionary mutation.

Russell

Whoa. You think Mother Nature created, like, a Tomorrow Person 2.0? A Day-After-Tomorrow Person.

Where are you going?

Russell

I am done taking orders and being a prisoner to a hypothetical cause when I could be out there helping real people. Right now.

Ultra is hardly hypothetical.

Russell

We act like we have to choose between working for them or fighting them. That's a fake choice. There are dragons to slay. We were given swords. I say we choose greatness.

Russell

Look, maybe it's time to reconsider our position. Do some good. We've been playing an awful lot of defense lately.

Since when are you a philanthropist?

Russell

Maybe I'm evolving. Maybe I don't want to see a teenage girl get raped by a bunch of gangsters.

We got enough problems, Russell.

Russell

Like finding our ghost hero who's lost in limboland? (to Stephen) No offense, dude.

MMallory

You’re Russell Kwon?

Russell

That’s what it says inside my underwear.

MMallory

Look, until Om Lam Chung's behind bars, trust me, this thing ain't over.

Russell

Who's--

Om Lam Chung, leader of the Made to Kill Vietnamese American crime syndicate, currently awaiting trial under the RICO Act.

MMallory

Bingo. What the snooty, disembodied voice thing said.

Perhaps I should turn myself off if my intelligence isn't welcome.

MMallory

So sensitive.

T.I.M, this is the best image you've got?

No other images exist of the address Cassie provided. Seems to be in some imaging dead zone.

It's the same technology the CIA uses to keep you from snooping on Langley.

Russell

So we're gunning for a paranormal supervillain holed up in his secret hideout with government-grade defenses? Hallelujah!
