Mon-El : How's my girlfriend, guys, huh?
Kara Danvers : What?
Mon-El : Bank robbers, zero. Supergirl, two. What do you even need cops for in this city?
Alex Danvers : [Maggie is insulted] He's from a different planet. He doesn't even know what he's saying.
Maggie Sawyer : No, he's right. Why bother trying to talk a guy down when Supergirl can just swoop in and force him down? Seventeen hours of "What do you want, how can I help you?", good old-fashioned hostage negotiation wasted.
Kara Danvers : You're not upset that I caught the bad guys and got everyone out safely, are you?
-
Mon-El : Alex, don't be embarrassed. The first time I tried to microwave macaroni and cheese, they had to evacuate three city blocks.
Kara Danvers : That's an exaggeration, but I have seen less terrifying nuclear explosions.
Maggie Sawyer : Well, I like pizza better than paella anyway.
-
Mon-El : As being something of a superhero myself, I can say that sometimes it's better to punch than... than to... talk.
Kara Danvers : Sometimes talking is more hurtful than punching. Obviously, I've upset you, Maggie. I'm gonna go.
Alex Danvers : No, Kara, don't do that...
Kara Danvers : No, it's fine. Thank you. Thanks for dinner.
Mon-El : [following her out] Babe!
[mouthing to Alex]
Mon-El : Sorry.

J'onn J'onzz : So this person who says they've kidnapped Alex, what exactly did they say on the call?
Kara Danvers : He said he would kill Alex if I didn't break Peter Thompson out of Albatross Bay. He said he knows Kara Danvers is Supergirl. He's targeting Alex because she's my sister.
Mon-El : This might be stating the obvious here, but why don't we just spring Peter Thompson and bring Alex home?
J'onn J'onzz : The DEO does not negotiate with terrorists.
Mon-El : But this is Alex.
J'onn J'onzz : If we do it once, we'll open the floodgates. Every bad guy will know Supergirl can be controlled.
Maggie Sawyer : And even if we do what he wants, it doesn't guarantee he'll release her. She's his insurance.
J'onn J'onzz : All right, people, let's get to work!
-
J'onn J'onzz : If this guy knows you're Supergirl, we use that to our advantage.
Mon-El : Well, that's got to be a short list. Who knows your secret?
Kara Danvers : Jeremiah, Eliza, Clark, the DEO. Lilian Luthor.
Maggie Sawyer : Does Peter Thompson have ties with Cadmus?
Winn Schott : No, I already checked. There's nothing.
Maggie Sawyer : Then you're asking the wrong question. We don't know where Alex was taken, we don't have a crime scene, we don't have any physical evidence. They've clearly been planning this for a while. Whoever took Alex is a ghost who doesn't want to be found.
Kara Danvers : Then what's the right question?
Maggie Sawyer : Who is Peter Thompson, and what does he mean to our ghost?
