Quotes 

• Alex Danvers : Esme, these are my co-workers. This is Lena, and this is William, and this is Brainy. Everyone, meet Esme.

  Lena Luthor : Hello, Esme. It's very good to meet you.

  Esme : You're very pretty.

  Lena Luthor : Thank you. So are you.

  Alex Danvers : Hey, uh, I was wondering, Brainy, if you could spare a little bit of time to help me out. Um, Esme is a Dyralian, and Kelly and I are looking to get her to feel a little more comfortable with her mimic powers. Um, off the record.

  William Dey : Of course.

  Brainiac-5 : Well, lucky for you, I used to be old friends with a Dyralian. This one time, the Dyralian and I were socializing with a Winathian friend of ours, and the Dyralian unknowingly taps into the Winathian's ability to de-power the gravity in the room. It took us three hours to get down from the ceiling.

  Esme : He's funny.

  Brainiac-5 : [leading her and Alex onto the elevator]  Tell me, how familiar are you with Coluan quantum mechanics? Hmm? Have you been trained in hand-to-hand combat?

• Supergirl : Any luck finding Nxyly or the next totem?

  Brainiac-5 : Still scanning. Nia hasn't had any luck in Parthas finding the Dream totem, either.

  Lena Luthor : [Brainy gets an alert on his computer]  Well, it looks like you just got lucky.

  Brainiac-5 : Indeed. It appears that three days ago, Nxyly broke into the Hague while we were dealing with the chaos caused by the Humanity totem. Although, she barely entered and walked away with nothing.

  William Dey : Why are you only getting the match now?

  Brainiac-5 : The system scans every available public camera worldwide. That's billions of bits of data, and unfortunately, I'm beholden to 21st-century upload speeds. I'm accessing the Hague's security system now for more information.

  Supergirl : Still, it's surprising there was no news report.

  Lena Luthor : Well, with things escalating between Kaznia and Corto Maltese and the setting up of the peace talks, a non-robbery at the Hague was probably the least newsworthy item.

  Supergirl : Hmm.

  Brainiac-5 : Well, a totem must be there. According to their security feed, Nxyly just returned.

• Lena Luthor : Do I smell chocolate chip cookies?

  William Dey : Actually, chocolate roulade, Jaffa cakes, and hobnobs, my Aunt Millicent's specialty. And they're not for you. They're for Alex to give to Esme.

  Brainiac-5 : Oh, yes, the young liege. Tell me, do either of you have any sense what her preference for building block sets might be? Castle, theme park, or train?

  Lena Luthor , Supergirl : [Kara flies in at just the right moment]  Train.

  Supergirl : Sorry. Super-hearing.

  Brainiac-5 : Was the answer really that obvious?

  Lena Luthor : Well, the castle and the theme park are great, Brainy, but once she builds the train, she can take it on any adventure she likes.

  Supergirl : The words right out of my mouth.

• William Dey : Supergirl won't give you those totems. She'll find another way.

  Nxylgsptinz : I've never seen a planet so driven by naivete. And, you know, you're quite the worst of them, with your devotion to the free press.

  William Dey : You don't believe in free press?

  Nxylgsptinz : Mm-mm.

  William Dey : Journalism shines a light on people in power. It ensures no authoritarian impulse goes unchecked. Much like yourself.

  Nxylgsptinz : If you think your little newspaper has any impact on those with real power, you're more delusional than I thought. No, the powerful will always believe their way is righteous. I would know. My father was the most powerful being in my dimension. The more power he gained, the more corrupt he became. I tried to show him the error of his ways... and he decimated me. But soon... I will reunite the AllStone... and I will finally set things right.

  William Dey : After everything you've done... all of the chaos you've wrought... you really think you're delivering justice?

  Nxylgsptinz : Yeah.

• Supergirl : I have what you want, Nxyly. Let him go.

  Nxylgsptinz : Give me what I want first.

  Supergirl : Suit yourself.

  [she tosses the crystal over] 

  Nxylgsptinz : [reacting in pain to Lena's spell]  Ah!

  Supergirl : Run!

  Nxylgsptinz : [catching William as he tries to escape]  You tried to use magic against me.

  Supergirl : Don't hurt him.

  Nxylgsptinz : I'm not hurting him. You are.

  William Dey : [choking]  You talk about me like I don't... get a say.

  [he trips Nxyly and removes the Courage totem from her gauntlet] 

  William Dey : But I do.

  Nxylgsptinz : [realizing their connection is broken]  You're not in my head anymore.

  Supergirl : I guess hope does trump fear.

  Nxylgsptinz : No. I won't be undone.
