"Makes me wonder if you and supergirl are more than just work buddies." "Don't play games." "Never." "It's a simple evolutionary equation." "Survival of the fittest." "For humanity to survive," "We need to be fitter than them." "You think you're humanity's savior, max?" "You're nothing but a common criminal." "You have no proof I've ever hurt anyone, your hands are tied." "But if you do try anything," "Things will get very bad for you" "And the people you love." "Are you threatening me?" "Supergirl is the threat, alex." "This..." "Bizarro?" "She's humanity's guardian." "You're welcome." "May the best girl win." "He all but admitted it." "He took all those girls." "All seven." "He made the bizarro you." "Is that what we're calling it?" "Another catco trademark." "So, how do we stop her?" "We arm our agents with kryptonite darts" "And we take down this bizarro" "The next time she shows her face." "But she's not the villain here," "She's the victim." "It's max we should be going after." "You're acting as if she's a person," "And not an experiment." "That's what she is, kara, she's one of max's deranged science projects." "So why don't we just arrest max?" "We're the deo, we don't exist." "And we certainly don't have the authority to arrest private citizens," "Especially not world-famous billionaires." "Briefing the strike team in 10." "Kara, there's something I wanted to tell you," "Not in front of hank." "When I was with max," "He mentioned you." "What?" "In what way?" "Like, in a weird way," "As if he knew we were related." "I'm mean, there's no way he could, is there?" "No." "No." "No way." "No." "He's just..." "He's trying to get into your head, he's trying to rattle you." "That's what he does." "Jerk." "(sighs) -what are you doing?" "I'm texting adam." "I can't go on a date," "Not while max and bizarro are out there," "It's too crazy right now." "No." "No." "No." "No." "No." "No." "That is exactly why you should go." "It's never going to be good timing," "So you can't wait around until it gets better." "You may be supergirl, but you're kara danvers too," "And she deserves a life." "So, go." "We'll hold down the fort." "Thanks, alex." "James:" "How do you feel about drowning our sorrows?" "I know what my sorrows are." "What, uh..." "What sorrows exactly do you have, sir?" "(chuckles) bottoms up." "Winn:" "Yeah." "What are you doing, man?" "Having a drink with a friend." "No." "With kara." "Huh?" "Why'd you tell her you were happy about her and adam?" "Because she likes him." "And that's what she wants me to say, man." "Come on." "No!" "Look, look..." "Dude, I've been stuck in the friend zone so long" "That I'm just thinking about buying some investment property here." "(chuckling)" "But you, you could be with her," "And you know it." "Literally, all you have to do is say the word." "So why don't you?" "Winn, I'm in a relationship." "Look, dude, I know that you care about lucy," "You don't have to convince me, I get it." "But nobody wants to be in a relationship with someone" "That wants to be with somebody else." "Mmm." "Mmm-hmm." "(winn claps hands)" "(winn exhales)" "Good talk." "Yeah." "Leave the bottle." "(chuckles)" "Kara:" "Working for your mom has its ups and downs," "But it's good for me." "She's been a really great mentor to me, whether she knows it or not." "Adam:" "What about your mom?" "Are you guys close?" "We were." "But she died." "My dad too." "Oh, my god." "What happened?" "Uh, there..." "There was an accident." "I wasn't there." "Kara, I'm so sorry." "No, no." "It happened a long time ago." "And I was adopted by this really wonderful family," "Who's great to me." "So, everything had a happy ending." "But?" "Well, after that, it's..." "It's..." "It's always been hard for me to feel normal, I guess." "You know, like I'm where I'm supposed to be." "Does that make any sense?" "Yes." "But kara, I should tell you something." "(whispers) no one ever feels normal." "Kara!" "(groans)" "Please, please, you're making a mistake." "(groans)" "Please, please, you don't want to do this." "(blowing)" "(both grunting)" "We've got her in our sights." "Fire!" "Again!" "Alex, no!" "She's down!" "Are you all right?" "Alex:" "It's the kryptonite." "It's degrading her." "It's corrupting her." "(growling)" "Hate you!" "(groans)" "It's the kryptonite artillery, you can't go after her." "Not now." "Kara, I was just trying to protect you." "Alex, you were right, he knows." "What are you talking about?" "Maxwell lord." "Bizarro didn't come after me as supergirl this time," "She came after me as kara." "He knows who I am," "Which means he knows where I work, he knows we're sisters," "About eliza." "Nowhere, no one is safe anymore." "I warned you!" "I told you he was dangerous." "Where's bizarro?" "Things didn't go quite according to plan." "Meaning?" "Bizarro is equal in strength to kara," "But her powers are directly oppositional." "We hit her with the kryptonite dart," "But instead of weakening her..." "It made her stronger." "Yeah." "So, once again a super-powered monster is unleashed on national city." "And this one's controlled by maxwell lord." "Whoever's behind this, we have to neutralize the threat." "You say she's diametrically opposed to kara?" "Fire breath, freeze-vision, it's like she's a mirror image." "In that case, I'll have the labs start reverse engineering" "The chemical compound to our synthetic kryptonite." "If its atomic structure is making bizarro stronger," "Reversing its ionic charge should have an oppositional effect." "Anything else you'd like to share?" "No, sir." "No plan is going to work until we take out max lord." "How do you suggest we do that?" "All I know is that there are so many threats out there." "Bizarro, non and astra," "And those are just the ones we know about." "I can't face all of that, and maxwell lord too." "It is time to stop him once and for all." "(sighs) I should've done more." "I mean, why take her and not me?" "It was just dumb luck." "Cat:" "Kara, we have been worried sick about you." "I ordered an amber alert." "Ms. Grant, could I please have a minute alone with adam?" "Oh." "Well, I guess I'll go roam the hallways of my building." "Adam..." "Are you breaking up with me?" "Because we haven't even started dating yet." "I hate to say this but" "Maybe the universe is sending us a message." "Our first date got interrupted," "And then I was kidnapped." "I know what you've been through," "And I get it." "But not everyone is going to leave you." "Not if you let them stick around." "If I had been five minutes earlier or later at noonan's that day," "We wouldn't have even met, we wouldn't be here." "Okay, so what I think was fate, you think is an accident?" "If I have learned anything from the past few weeks," "If I don't have room in my life for a great guy like you," "Maybe I don't have room for anyone." "I don't know if that makes you feel any better." "Not really." "I thought this wasn't going to work" "Because of my baggage." "My issues." "That I'd be the one to chicken out." "I'm sorry." "I know you are." "I'm gonna go." "No, I'm gonna leave, just hang here for a second." "Goodbye, kara." "Goodbye, adam." "Supergirl made you a monster." "If I were you, I'd be very angry about that." "I'd want to take away anyone supergirl loves." "(door slams shut)" "Hey, kara, you okay?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I'm fine." "I just needed some air." "Yeah." "What happened?" "Just..." "Adam and I..." "Oh, no." "Did he..." "No, no, it was me, I did." "(james sighs)" "Okay, well, if you need somebody to talk to..." "I think you and I both know that nothing you can say or do" "Will make me feel better right now." "So maybe..." "I don't know." "Maybe you should just leave me alone." "Agent danvers," "Or whatever you feel like calling yourself," "I'm growing very tired of these unannounced visits." "Well, lucky you, because this is the last one." "What the hell is going on?" "Maxwell lord, you're under arrest." "On what charges, hmm?" "Aren't you going to read me my rights?" "I'm acting on behalf of an extra-legal enforcement organization." "Meaning you don't have any rights." "Unless you want to tell me where bizarro is." "Mmm, not really." "But I do have some information you might find interesting." "Your sister, sweet-faced, mild-mannered ingenue kara danvers..." "You take me in," "I tell the whole world she's supergirl." "What do you think about that?" "Where you're going," "There won't be anyone to hear you." "(whooshing)" "Kara, I..." "What the hell?" "(screams)" "Maxwell:" "So this is the deo." "A little more stalagmite-chic than I pictured." "Take him to cell 19." "My lucky number." "What the hell do you think you're doing, alex?" "I had no choice, hank." "He's had us under surveillance." "He knows about the deo." "He knows about kara." "I don't care if he's got the nuclear codes and his finger's on the button," "That is not some anonymous alien you brought in." "That is maxwell lord," "Head of a multibillion dollar organization." "Timemagazine'sreigning person of the year." "Everyone is going to be looking for this guy." "They won't find him." "You're compromising the security of this entire operation." "And he is compromising the security of my family." "Guess which one I care about more?" "We are all willing to do a lot of things" "To protect our secrets, hank." "I would think you would understand that" "Better than anyone." "(gasps)" "No move." "Okay." "I won't move." "I won't move." "Why did you bring me here?" "Supergirl loves you." "How do you know that?" "Supergirl and me." "Same." "Why don't you come closer, so I can see you?" "Bizarro:" "No." "Why not?" "Ugly." "You know, we..." "We all feel ugly sometimes." "We all feel like no one loves us." "Like maybe they never will." "And you may not look like her right now," "But there is a part of you that still is supergirl." "I can feel it." "And people don't love her because of what she looks like on the outside." "I love her" "Because of who she is." "Because she's brave," "Because she's kind," "And she always tries to do the right thing." "And you can be the same." "You're not a monster." "Liar!" "(james screaming)" "(james groaning)" "It's james." "Bizarro has him." "The compound is ready." "The exact molecular opposite to green kryptonite." "You move her into position, I'll take the shot." "Will this stuff work?" "We're gonna find out." "I kill supergirl." "(both grunting)" "(glass shattering)" "(choking)" "(bizarro growling)" "I can't get a clean shot." "Just do it!" "Kara, I don't know what this is going to do to you if I hit you." "(choking) take the shot!" "(bizarro grunts)" "(panting)" "(exhales)" "Hank henshaw:" "She's been asking for you." "(weakly) supergirl." "Hi." "I'm here." "Hi." "I'm sorry." "I know." "I'm sorry, too." "Hank henshaw:" "We're going to put her under," "The way she was when I first saw her." "She won't feel any pain, will she?" "She won't feel anything." "We have to try to help her." "We will." "I'm going to hold your hand until you fall asleep, okay?" "Afraid." "I know." "I once went to sleep for a long time, too." "I was afraid." "But when I woke up," "I wasn't alone." "You're not gonna be alone either." "Thank you," "Kara." "(gulps)" "She didn't deserve what happened to her." "No, she did not." "Maxwell lord made her to be just like me." "And she was." "Guess my girl came in second place." "We'll see how funny you think it is when you've been in that cell for a few years." "I'd say you're different from your cousin when it comes to" "Truth, justice and the american way," "But holding people indefinitely against their will," "Can't get much more american than that." "You will never hurt anyone ever again." "Anyone like eliza danvers?" "That's some cute house you grew up in in midvale." "Right along the beach." "Idyllic." "He's not worth it." "Agent danvers, my hero." "So long, sisters." "See you soon." "Ms." "Grant?" "Mmm." "Uh, I don't know if you've talked to adam..." "I did." "He's leaving." "He's going back to opal city." "So soon?" "Well, he says that now that we're back into each other's lives," "He'll visit me of course," "But there's nothing urgent keeping him here in national city." "You know, kara, I always thought that you and I were very different." "But I'm starting to realize we may be more alike than I thought." "In what way?" "I lost adam years ago" "Because I prioritized other things over him." "Namely, myself." "And while that may help you build an empire," "It doesn't help you build a life." "For that, you need to put other people first." "I thought you understood that but I guess I was wrong." "Ms. Grant, I want to explain why..." "Why you broke my son's heart?" "No, whatever happened between you and adam, kara, is your own personal business." "I just want you to know that it wasn't..." "Cat:" "I don't want to know." "In fact, from this moment on," "I think our relationship should be strictly professional." "Boss, employee." "That way, everything is very clear." "Nobody gets confused." "Nobody gets hurt." "Of course." "If that's what you want." "Hey." "Perfect timing." "Do you want to go to noonan's for happy hour?" "We still haven't de-briefed about" "What happened when you were with bizarro." "I mean, it's nothing earth-shattering." "I just said how I was feeling until you got there." "Oh, okay, well, then no work talk," "And we can just have free buffalo wings." "Yeah, I'd love to, I just have to pick up lucy from the airport." "She was in d.C. Visiting her father." "Happy reunion." "Happy reunion." "Night." "Hey, uh, kara..." "Have a good night." "(sighs)" "(skittering on wall)" "What the hell?" "(gasps)"
