Quotes 

  • Brainiac-5 : Lena, I... I need you to know that I had no idea that this was Lex's plan. I thought that if... if I was... close to him, I-I would be able to know how and when to stop him, but I... I didn't. I was so worried that... by working with Lex I was becoming the villain, that... that I lost track of... of what he was up to. I thought... that by doing this I would help save the world, but... look what it's done.

    Lena Luthor : Brainy, you were willing to sacrifice everything to save your friends. On the other hand, I was the hypocrite who believed that she had the answers to all the world's problems. It's the closest I've ever come to seeing things through Lex's eyes. Self-pity and blinding hubris should be the Luthor family motto. So if anyone's gonna win the culpability award, I've got you by a landslide.

    Brainiac-5 : What do we do now?

    Lena Luthor : Try and cope with the mistakes of the past and... appreciate that we have friends who still believe in us. Now let's go save the world.

  • Alex Danvers : This is Martian nanites laced with potassium iodide. It's gonna give your system a chance to repair itself now that you're out of that room. But it's not gonna be fun.

    Brainiac-5 : [bolting upright with a gasp]  Gamemnae. I know how to stop her. The Anti-Life Equation. Leviathan were ancient aliens, but Gamemnae's a technological being, which is exactly what the Anti-Life Equation was designed for. All we need is a method of uploading it into that center console, which has to be the ship's command hub.

    Alex Danvers : [conjuring a compatible device]  Like this?

  • M'gann M'orzz : If we only knew how to make Lex mortal again. We need his kryptonite.

    Brainiac-5 : Not kryptonite, Jarhanpurium. Fragments of that planet must have made it to Earth. It would be toxic to Lex, just like kryptonite is to Supergirl.

    J'onn J'onnz : But finding it would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

    Dreamer : That's what my dream was about. There was a green bottle, kryptonite green.

    Lena Luthor : I could invert the energy in the bottle, run it through the machine I used to make kryptonite.

    Brainiac-5 : Sprock. It could work.

    Dreamer : The monument Supergirl was trapped in on Shelley Island was also in my dream. The bottle must be there.

    Brainiac-5 : It's the same energy station Lex used last year on Earth-38. I'll go.

    Dreamer : No, you're still too weak. I'll go.

    Alex Danvers : And I'll go with you. Brainy, you and Lena work on Myriad and her kryptonite machine for when we bring you back that bottle.

    Supergirl : I'll get Myriad from the Fortress. And there's gotta be something there we can use to weaponize the Jarhanpurium. That way we can strip Lex of his powers and make him mortal again.

    J'onn J'onnz : But let's not forget, Lex still wants to kill us all. And he has Leviathan powers, which means he can sense us, especially Supergirl. He'll strike as soon as we try to make a move. We need another diversion.

    Supergirl : I can buy you guys time by offering myself up.

    J'onn J'onnz : We're not gonna let you do that, Supergirl. It's too risky.

    Supergirl : If that's what it takes to save half the population and stop Lex, I'm willing to take that risk.

  • Brainiac-5 : I meant what I said before. I truly am so sorry for everything.

    Dreamer : You hurt me, Brainy. You abandoned us. I know it was to save the world, but... what's the point of saving anything if it means you have to hurt the people who love you?

    Brainiac-5 : Yeah. You're right.

    [giving her his Legion ring] 

    Brainiac-5 : Take this. It's a loaner while I'm recovering. And the first step in trying to... make up for everything I've done. Who knows, it might be of service.

  • J'onn J'onnz : I've located Lex's satellites. Twelve of them orbiting the Earth. Each armed with Claymore cannons to fire on hard targets should any one of them be tampered with. It would appear the only way to shut them down would be to shut them all down at the same time.

    Supergirl : But only four of us can fly.

    Brainiac-5 : Synchronizing our movements, too, could prove impossible.

    M'gann M'orzz : We could shut it down with the Dorkri Surth-Uh.

    Alex Danvers : The what?

    M'gann M'orzz : A Martian ritual which translates to "the binding".

    Supergirl : And you could use this on the satellites?

    J'onn J'onnz : It would require M'gann and I to join our minds, synchronize our thoughts. We could create a web of psychic energy that we could literally bind onto things and move them in unison.

    M'gann M'orzz : We can do it.

    Alex Danvers : Okay, but even if you stopped the satellites, half the people out there are still gonna be brainwashed by Lex.

    Supergirl : Lena, if you had the code Lex used, could you reverse it using Myriad?

    Lena Luthor : Myriad. Y-Yes, but... you'd trust me? Even after everything?

    Supergirl : You want to help people. Whatever else has happened, I know what's in your heart.

  • Dreamer : Let me in!

    Brainiac-5 : [weakly]  Can't.

    Dreamer : Yeah. Yes, you can. There's a panel. You can hit it.

    Brainiac-5 : Radiation.

    Dreamer : I'm not gonna let you die.

    Brainiac-5 : Nia, you should hear this. You have to work with Lex to destroy Leviathan. Pushing you away, hurting you, it was to protect you. I love you.

    Dreamer : No, you're not getting off the hook that easily.

  • Lena Luthor : How's it coming?

    Brainiac-5 : Kelly was able to access Lex's code at Obsidian. Thus far, it's been easy enough to reverse-engineer, but the sequencing, the control flow... the way Lex was able to override free will with a few keystrokes... it's quite terrifying.

    Lena Luthor : The code was my design. Are J'onn and M'gann in position?

    Brainiac-5 : Affirmative. And we're ready to trigger Myriad as soon as they take down all the satellites.

    Lena Luthor : Hopefully, Supergirl will keep Lex busy long enough so we can stop him.

  • Lex Luthor : Careful. I bruise easily. I'm not immortal anymore, remember?

    J'onn J'onnz : Brainy, what's taking so long with that projector?

    Brainiac-5 : The data's been wiped. I don't know if it's recoverable, and the projector itself...

    Lena Luthor : No, we don't need it. I'll just open a transmat portal like I did during Crisis.

    Brainiac-5 : No, no, no. Even if that were to work, without the coordinates of where he sent her, she could be anywhere in the Phantom Zone.

  • Nia Nal : [returning Brainy's Legion ring]  I think this belongs to you. Came in handy. Thanks.

    Brainiac-5 : I should have protected Kara. I failed. I failed everyone.

    Nia Nal : You didn't fail, Brainy. You defeated Leviathan.

    Brainiac-5 : Supergirl is gone. Lex Luthor lives. I should have let the other Brainiac-5s take on Leviathan, because clearly, I was too stupid to get it right.

    Nia Nal : Brainy, stop! You are not stupid. You were put in a no-win situation and you did the best you could.

    Brainiac-5 : I hurt you. That... was not the best.

    Nia Nal : You did. But I still care about you.

    Brainiac-5 : How can you be so kind after... after everything? It's not logical.

    Nia Nal : The heart isn't logical. When we thought you were dying on the Leviathan ship, you said that you loved me. If that's still true and... you want to fix us, you need to start engaging with me honestly, no matter what. Even if you think you're protecting me. Because, Brainy, I am not a woman who needs to be protected.

    Brainiac-5 : Of course. You're a woman who stops tidal waves... and who dreams impossible things.

    Nia Nal : And loves you, too.

    [offering a pinky swear] 

    Nia Nal : No more secrets?

    Brainiac-5 : I promise.
