Quotes 

• Mon-El : Wait, are you... are you guys kidnapping this woman?

  Olivia : Just get out.

  Mon-El : That is, okay... that's a highly illegal situation, and I'm gonna have to insist that...

  [he gets pistol-whipped] 

  Mon-El : Okay. Yeah.

  Tanya : I'm not scared of you.

  Mon-El : I'm very scared of you. So, should we put some music on, or...?

• Tanya : You know Supergirl? I need you to get this to her.

  James Olsen : What is this?

  Tanya : It's Thomas Coville's journal.

  Kara Danvers : How did you get this?

  Tanya : I stole it from his cult. Can you get it to her or not? I thought you two were close. I think his followers are using it to make a bomb.

• Tanya : I was a teacher. Linguistics and semiotics.

  Kara Danvers : You helped Coville learn Kryptonian.

  Tanya : He found me. I-I'd been saved by her. I... I just wanted the miracle to mean something. But when Reign came, the followers started making me translate his journal. It had everything he had ever learned about Krypton, and I was the only one left who knew how to read it. But what I read, it was like a recipe. Explosives.

  James Olsen : Where's Coville now?

  Tanya : He just vanished. The others were saying that he died serving Reign, that-that he's a martyr. They'd become fanatics.

  James Olsen : And where are his... disciples now?

  Tanya : [scribbling an address on a Post-It]  This is where I ran away from.

• Tanya : Look, I know I should have left earlier, but at first, it was... it so nice, I mean, to believe in something, to connect to people. But then Reign came, and Coville got word to us that we were worshipping the wrong god, that Reign was our deliverance.

• Tanya : Wait, hold up. You're Guardian?

  James Olsen : Yep, just try not to put that on your social media. I'm trying it keep it on the low.

  Tanya : Okay. Sorry. I just... that is so awesome. I-I had no idea. I thought you were just friends withn Supergirl, but you're super... well, not "man", uh, because that's already taken. But you're super.

  James Olsen : They're super. I'm just Guardian.

• Tanya : Oh, no, come on. Don't downplay it. You're Guardian! You're a superhero. And they still would've shot you.

  James Olsen : You forget they did shoot me. In the face, with armor-piercing bullets.

  Tanya : No, not the acolytes, the police. I've seen it happen to my father, my brothers. I just... never thought it would happen to Guardian.

• Supergirl : What happened? Are you okay?

  James Olsen : Yeah, yeah, yeah.

  Tanya : They came for me.

  James Olsen : You'll never believe who the heavy was. Olivia.

  Supergirl : Olivia? But... but she was the first one to turn on Coville at the stadium.

  Tanya : Yeah, you're right. She was lost after that. More than the rest, but she kept visiting him in prison.

  Supergirl : You should've called me.

  Tanya : Oh! Guardian had it handled. Don't worry, I'm not gonna start a church or anything.

• James Olsen : So, any luck finding the cult?

  Supergirl : We went back to where you escaped from. They weren't there, but we did find evidence that they were trying to build the bomb you told James and Kara Danvers about. But they failed. Um... we think someone might have died there.

  Tanya : [she holds out a necklace]  This was Liza's. She was my friend.

  Supergirl : [James' phone buzzes]  What is it?

  [noticing his expression change] 

  Supergirl : James.

  [he tosses her the phone] 

  Supergirl : [reading a text]  "Give us Tanya and the journal, or the world will see your true face."

  James Olsen : They're gonna tell National City I'm Guardian.

• Tanya : You don't have to reveal yourself for me. I'm gonna give myself up. I wanna face them. I wanna fight.

  James Olsen : No, no, no, Tanya. It is way too dangerous for that.

  Tanya : No, I need to do this. For once, I need to take a risk and stand up for what I believe. I need to be myself.

  James Olsen : Well, you're not doing this alone.

• Acolyte #2 : You've decided to come back to us.

  Tanya : I wasn't given a choice.

  [he leads her into a van where Olivia waits] 

  Mon-El : [climbing in after her]  Awesome. This is, uh, this is for Mike, right?

  [looking around and noticing the unfriendly expressions] 

  Mon-El : Ooh. Sorry. I'm pretty sure this is my lift.

  Acolyte : We're kind of in the middle of something, guy.

• Supergirl : "You must deliver Tanya and the journal to the corner of Pacific and First at 5:00 p.m. If you fail to show up, we will go live with this video and reveal James Olsen as Guardian to all of National City."

  Tanya : I am so sorry I put you at risk.

  James Olsen : No, no, no, it's not your fault.

  Tanya : If they expose your identity, then you're a vigilante. They could arrest you, and then all of those people that you put in jail, they... they'd know who are you, they could go after you.

  James Olsen : Look, Tanya, it-it is not about that right now. This is about protecting you.

  Supergirl : We have three hours. We can find Olivia and her followers before anything happens to James.
