Tim Russ: Jul-Us

Quotes 

• Supergirl : Your point is well-made that Krypton is dead. But its legacy lives on. For good and ill. My own mother sentenced prisoners to Fort Rozz. Prisoners who broke free and took their anger out on Earth, many of whom we're still trying to apprehend. There are people on Earth who work every day to solve the mistakes of Krypton's past. People who are trying to make Earth fairer. Or just better. These people dedicate their lives to this work, and some have even given their lives to it. This planet, these... these people, they took me in. An alien immigrant from a world they knew nothing about. A world whose legacy threatened their way of life, and their safety, again and again and again. And now they deserve it in kind, because their very existence is threatened by this Worldkiller of Kryptonian making. My mother tells me Argo City has changed, that it has learned from the mistakes of Krypton's past. So I beg you. Give us the gift of Harun-El. We don't need very much. And this bit of charity, it will save Earth.

  Jul-Us : Well said, Kara Zor-El. But my concern is for those of us you left behind. I'm afraid we cannot spare the Harun-El.

• Alura Zor-El : As you may know, Zor-El and I came up with a plan to save Kara during the dark days before Krypton's destruction. We didn't know that Argo could survive, and so we put Kara, our only child, into a pod and we sent her to Earth. Its people took her in. They saved her. And in exchange, she serves the people of her adopted home. She's a hero that embodies our greatest ideals. But unfortunately, Kara was not the only Kryptonian to travel to Earth.

  Supergirl : A Worldkiller followed.

  Jul-Us : You must forgive our skepticism. You've been away a long time. Here on Argo, Worldkillers are the stuff of children's stories.

  Supergirl : I, too, was hesitant to believe that such a thing could be real, but I faced it. She is real. And she calls herself Reign. I traveled here from across the stars because I could not defeat her myself. And Earth is in grave danger.

  Selena : An unfortunate situation if true, but how can Argo be of help?

  Jul-Us : Indeed. We are a recovering city. Still limping wounded from the trauma of destruction. We can't communicate outside our protective dome, let alone send troops or aid beyond its borders.

  Supergirl : It isn't troops we need.

  Selena : Then what is it you seek?

  Supergirl : A gift. Of Harun-El.

• Jul-Us : You would have us give away our most precious resource, our only lifeline, to an alien species?

  Supergirl : The people of Earth share our ideals. They're more like us than you realize.

  Jul-Us : Or perhaps you've become more like them than you realize.

  Alura Zor-El : With all due respect, Councilman, the danger currently facing Earth is of Kryptonian making.

  Jul-Us : And I need not remind you, Alura, that Krypton is dead. Argo City is all that remains.

  Alura Zor-El : And yet the sins of Krypton live on in this Worldkiller. Can you abide this as our legacy?

  Jul-Us : This council does not concern itself with legacy, only survival.

  Alura Zor-El : And what is the point of survival if there's no soul to save?
