Quotes 

• Brainiac-5 : I need real fifth-dimensional elements to lock onto Mxy. Tell me you found some.

  Supergirl : No, but we did find something else that might help.

  Alex Danvers : [opening a case]  Baltorian scanners. They're portable and able to trace even minute amounts of fifth-dimensional energy.

  Brainiac-5 : [taking a scanner out]  Interesting.

  [it beeps] 

  Brainiac-5 : Sprock, it-it's already found a source of fifth-dimensional energy.

  Supergirl : [looking at a monitor]  Is that the Ormfell?

  J'onn J'onnz : The one Nxyly blew up?

  Nia Nal : You don't think she'd return to the scene of the crime, do you?

• Alex Danvers : I thought I was listening, J'onn. You know, our... our lives and our experiences, I mean, Kelly and I, we have so much in common. I just...

  J'onn J'onnz : You will most likely never understand what she is going through. I came to this planet as a Martian. And in my heart, I've always been more Martian than anything. But... I have chosen to wear the face of a Black man for a very long time now. I could've changed races, could've changed into someone else entirely. But if I'm honest... wearing this skin has made me feel most like an alien on this planet. Feeling like I don't belong. Never quite getting comfortable with the idea that this... really is my home. But I also realize that Kelly and James don't have the option to make that choice. I know you, and I know your heart. And I know how much you and Kelly love each other. She does, too. When she's ready to open up, you'll be there for her. And she'll be glad that you are.

• Alex Danvers : Hey, babe.

  Kelly Olsen : Hey. I feel like we haven't really talked in days.

  Alex Danvers : Yeah, I know. It's been so intense trying to find Nxyly. My friend called and said that the respirators made it to Chisholm Memorial Hospital.

  Kelly Olsen : Yes, thank you. But I think it's more complicated than that. Orlando just called, and Joey should be getting better and he's not. I'm worried we're missing something.

  Supergirl : [calling on comms]  Alex?

  Alex Danvers : Yeah, go.

  Supergirl : We've got the last of the debris to calibrate our sensors. We need to get back to the Tower ASAP.

  Alex Danvers : Uh, I'll be right there.

  [to Kelly] 

  Alex Danvers : Supergirl said that we've got all the debris; that should help everyone here. Dreamer, we have to get to the Tower.

  Dreamer : [giving her scanner to Kelly]  Here. Take mine. Maybe we did miss something.

• Kelly Olsen : Where were all of you?

  Alex Danvers : Kelly? What happened?

  Kelly Olsen : Rankin is the problem. She's a source of the fifth-dimensional energy, and I don't know how or why. There was a fight at the hospital and I couldn't stop her.

  John Diggle : Kelly managed to grab some of Rankin's hair.

  Supergirl : Kelly...

  Kelly Olsen : I needed your help. I told you the people in the Heights needed your help and you didn't see them. You don't see me.

  Alex Danvers : Kelly, I see...

  [seeing Kelly's look, she trails off] 

  Supergirl : We're gonna stop the person who did this.

  Kelly Olsen : I know! I know that you are all trying to stop Nxyly. I know. But do you hear me? Do you see what is happening? People are gonna die! And I feel like I am yelling into a void! We are supposed to fight for everyone, together. And yet I am looking at people suffer, people that look like me, and everyone here is just too busy. Where is the outrage that people are gonna die without help? Without hope? Maybe you could spare a second for them.

  Alex Danvers : [Kelly leaves]  I'll, uh, I'll go after her.

  Supergirl : I'll go with you.

  Nia Nal : Wait. Let's just give her a second. Until she's ready.

• Alex Danvers : Hey, babe, it's not really a good time. Can I call you back?

  Kelly Olsen : Joey was at the Ormfell building when it came down.

  Alex Danvers : What? Is he okay?

  Kelly Olsen : I... I don't know. It's bad. The hospital is overwhelmed, they've run out of respirators and oxygen tanks. I... can you guys come?

  Alex Danvers : Look, I... I totally get it. And as soon as we get a break, we'll head to the Heights. We're dealing with something huge here. I have some med school friends that work at other hospitals. I'll see if they can send some respirators over.

  Kelly Olsen : Uh, that would be amazing.

  Alex Danvers : Um, I have to go. I'm so sorry, but you are amazing. You can do anything. I love you.

• Brainiac-5 : The contaminated debris is radiating small amounts of fifth-dimensional energy. It's what's making the people here sick. Our scanners will help us locate the debris.

  [Dreamer passes them out] 

  Brainiac-5 : All together, they should make for a powerful energy source.

  Supergirl : And that will give us what we need to find Nxyly?

  Brainiac-5 : I believe so.

  Kelly Olsen : But will it help the people here in the Heights?

  Brainiac-5 : Removing the contaminated debris should lead to the people recovering almost immediately.

  Alex Danvers : Great. Everybody wins.

• Supergirl : I x-rayed the entire city. There's no sign of her or Mitch's ship.

  J'onn J'onnz : When we put that anti-magic cuff on Nxyly, it made it impossible for us to track her.

  Brainiac-5 : Maybe it's not Nxyly we should be looking for. Mxy is still full of fifth-dimensional energy. The crystal is dampening his energy signature, but perhaps we can modulate the Tower sensors to isolate his specific wavelength. There might be more information on fifth-dimensional energy at the DEO's desert facility to help me build a tracker.

  Supergirl : Well, we'll need Alex's retina scan to get in. I'll give you a ride.

  Alex Danvers : Okay.

  J'onn J'onnz : [Alex checks her phone]  Is everything okay?

  Alex Danvers : Yeah. I was just gonna go home and check on Kelly, but, um, I'm sure she's got it covered.

• Alex Danvers : I may not, uh... understand, and, uh, you know, I... I understand that I won't fully ever... I just... I just want to be... an ally to you in every way.

  Kelly Olsen : I, uh... I feel like a valve has been released... and I have no control over my emotions. Which is something I have always prided myself on. All I keep saying is that I'm tired... of fighting for something that we should all be innately fighting for. I am so tired. Yeah, and I-I... I c... I ca... I can't process it all right now.

  Alex Danvers : Well, how do I support you? Because I love you. And it kills me to see you in pain.

  Kelly Olsen : Just... let me be. And don't push me to unpack it all right now so it can be communicated for you. Hold the space and love me... without having to understand all of me and all of my experiences. And for now, just... hold me.
