"Supergirl" Event Horizon (TV Episode 2019) - Chyler Leigh as Alex Danvers

Alex Danvers : [catching up to Supergirl and Guardian] How do you guys change so fast?

Nia Nal : No, Hannibal Lecter. He eats people.

Querl Dox : Miranda Priestly.

Nia Nal : Miranda Priestly? Are you serious?

Querl Dox : I'm as serious as the pursed lips of Miranda Priestly.

Nia Nal : [seeing Alex and Kara] Okay, good, you guys can help me prove a point. Who is the greatest movie villain of all time?

Kara Danvers : [answering simultaneously] Voldemort.

Alex Danvers : Hans Gruber.

Nia Nal : Impressively unhelpful. Well, I guess you'll just have to accept that I'm right.

Querl Dox : Hmm. This Earth custom that the girlfriend is always right is illogical and-and frustrating, but I can assimilate.

Supergirl : I'm guessing this alien didn't want just another ride. Kryptonian pods use anti-matter to propel them through space. And I know it's a long shot, but... can the engine be used...

Querl Dox : To make a bomb? It would require great skill and enormous resources. But it is possible.

Alex Danvers : How destructive?

Querl Dox : Strong enough to destroy all life across three solar systems.

Alex Danvers : Oh, well...

Querl Dox : We face an even graver problem. Supergirl's cape has been destroyed!

Alex Danvers : [sarcastic] Oh, yes, uh... I totally forgot about the risk to life across three solar systems.

Querl Dox : This is no time for sarcasm, however dry or well-crafted. Supergirl's cape is uniquely suited for the needs of high-speed superhero manuevers. And believe me, when a Farfarmniflatch is pursuing you across the poisonous prison pits of Takron-Galtos, you will wish for those heady days of old when your cape allowed you for an easy sharp right turn. Oh, yes. I... I shall repair your cape. And we will forget this sartorial disaster ever occurred.

Kara Danvers : [after bumping into a glassy-eyed patron at restaurant] What is going on with these people? They're completely oblivious.

J'onn J'onzz : By their silver eyes, I would say that they were Slattorians. A race of aliens I came across during an investigation.

Alex Danvers : Oh, your P.I. powers of deduction are failing you, J'onn J'onzz. The silver eyes are courtesy of Obsidian North.

J'onn J'onzz : Isn't that the company you're working for, Kelly?

Kelly Olsen : Today is my official first day. Those are augmented reality contact lenses that we're beta testing. The people with the silver eyes that are staring at the void above the cashier? They're actually looking at a virtual menu. I'll show you.

[showing them her tablet]

Kelly Olsen : So, when you wear the contact lenses, you're linked to tons of people on a social media platform, and they can connect without saying a word.

Alex Danvers : [shyly] Kind of like you and me.

Kara Danvers : [comical tone] You guys are so cute. But those contact lenses creep me out. Just call me when you can register to vote with a gesture. 'Cause look, there's about to be a special election, and did you know that voter registration is down? People don't wanna pay attention to what's happening the real world.

Kelly Olsen : In my new job, I am gonna be using Obsidian's VR tech to heal the brains of dementia and PTSD patients.

Kara Danvers : Touché. I'm a curmudgeon. Your new job sounds amazing, and I'm so glad we're working in the same building. Big Belly Burger lunches.

J'onn J'onzz : Ooh, look at the time. I gotta fly, guys. I'm teaching a tai chi class to a group of kids.

Alex Danvers : Oh, that's wonderful, J'onn.

J'onn J'onzz : Yeah, I'm living with clarity and purpose. It's gonna be great.

Kelly Olsen : You know what would not be great is me being late for my first day.

Alex Danvers : Hey, how did it go with Lena last night? I mean, I'm dying to hear.

[seeing her face]

Alex Danvers : Oh, no. I know that face. Are you ser... you didn't say anything? You didn't tell her?

Kara Danvers : It's not my fault. I had to take the dog to the vet.

Alex Danvers : You don't have a dog, Kara.

Kara Danvers : My neighbor's dog. Mrs. Stein.

Alex Danvers : Oh, come on.

Kara Danvers : She needed my help.

Alex Danvers : You have to tell Lena that you're Supergirl.

Kara Danvers : But...

Alex Danvers : When I told you to hold off, I just meant for one night.

Kara Danvers : But there's been so much going on. I-I'm covering the special election, and-and with the dog, and I'm helping you recover all those prisoners from the DEO desert facility.

Alex Danvers : And the DEO and I very much appreciate that. But you're doing all these other things when there's just one thing that you need to do.

Kara Danvers : I know. I've just put it off for so long, and now... I'm being given an award for my tireless pursuit of the truth, and I'm a liar. I'm terrible.

Alex Danvers : You're not terrible. You're just scared.

Kara Danvers : I am so scared. I'm so scared that she's never gonna forgive me, Alex. I mean, what kind of person lies to their best friend for this long?

Alex Danvers : Look, I... have told you a gazillion times, you are the bravest person that I know. Okay? So be brave and tell her.

Kara Danvers : You're right. Yeah, we're having lunch today. I-I'll tell her today.

Alex Danvers : Good. I believe in you.

J'onn J'onzz : I've never experienced anything like it. That T-Rex must've caused some psychic paralysis.

Supergirl : Any intel on the dinosaur?

Querl Dox : A shapeshifter.

Alex Danvers : White Martian?

J'onn J'onzz : No, I would have known.

Supergirl : You were right, Brainy. This cape damage is terrible for aerodynamics. I keep keeling over to the right. I almost landed in a lake.

Querl Dox : Well, fear not. I am deeply engaged in finding a solution.

Alex Danvers : And yet that is the least of our problems. The DEO just picked up a massive energy signature, and it's not a bomb like we thought.

J'onn J'onzz : It's a homemade Phantom Zone projector.

Querl Dox : Whoever built this seems to have been stealing rare, high-security materials for weeks from various armories, laboratories, and government agencies. But not from us.

J'onn J'onzz : The pod's anti-matter engine was the final piece of the puzzle.

Supergirl : So they've spent weeks building a Phantom Zone projector, turned it on, and just left it on the ground?

Querl Dox : It's almost as if they wanted us to find it. Only question is why?

Supergirl , Alex Danvers : [realizing together] Trap.

J'onn J'onzz : No one knows who Midnight is, what planet she's from. One day, she just appeared on Mars to fight alongside the White Martians.

Alex Danvers : But why?

J'onn J'onzz : Because she's fueled by death. The White Martians were quite happy to let her loose on my people.

Supergirl : How did you defeat her?

J'onn J'onzz : I can't remember.

Querl Dox : You're still recovering from the psychic trauma you experienced at the museum. It could affect your memory.

Supergirl : This feels personal, J'onn.

J'onn J'onzz : Manchester Black spent a year launching personal attacks against me. If I can survive him, I can survive anything.

Alex Danvers : We still have to find Midnight. And we don't know who got her here or why.

Querl Dox : The good news is a battle like that must have depleted her powers. I think we bought ourselves up to 24 hours before she's able to attack again.

Supergirl : Good. I'll circle the country and see if I can find her while she's still weak. J'onn, can you shapeshift and accept my award tonight?

Querl Dox : Oh, yes, please, it's great fun to watch you do that.

Alex Danvers : Kara, no. *You* are accepting that award. And we're all gonna be there to watch. We'll find Midnight, and we're gonna face her the same exact way that we face everything else. Together.

Kara Danvers : And then I just went off on Andrea. I told her how I really feel about her new vision for CatCo, and I told her what I will and will not tolerate, and I did it all in front of the new guy.

Alex Danvers : Good for you.

Kara Danvers : Yeah. I mean, I can stand up in front of my new boss, but with Lena, when it comes to telling her the truth, I'm just... frozen. Why can't I do it?

Alex Danvers : Look, I know I've been hard on you. But you know what? Tonight, this is... this is your night. So I am giving you permission to stop beating yourself up and enjoy it, okay? You can worry about telling Lena another time.

Kara Danvers : I guess you're right.

Alex Danvers : Smile.

Querl Dox : I just received an alert from the DEO. Midnight is fully charged and on the move.

Alex Danvers : Where is she?

Querl Dox : Here.

Nia Nal : Okay, no, Kelly, you need to settle something for us once and for all.

Kelly Olsen : Mm-hmm.

Nia Nal : Who is the greatest movie villain of all time?

Kelly Olsen : Oh, that's easy. Hans Gruber.

Alex Danvers : Oh, my heart.

[they kiss]

Alex Danvers : Yes.
