Quotes 

• Mon-El : I can't believe you're going back.

  Supergirl : I know. Neither can I. It's gonna be really hard to be away from everyone.

  Mon-El : It's your home.

  Supergirl : Mm-hmm. Hey, thank you for everything, by the way. For coming back in and helping, and being part of the team. It's really meant a lot to me.

  Mon-El : Yeah, well, a while ago, someone pretty great taught me how to be a hero.

  Supergirl : She didn't do a bad job.

• Mon-El : Hey, uh, while you're in Argo, would you do me a favor? They have artificial gravity there, which means they have some sort of synthetic gravity manipulator. And since gravity can bend space-time, you can use it to send a beacon into the future, and let the Legion know they can come back and get me.

  Supergirl : You're leaving too? Why don't you just come with me?

  Mon-El : I wouldn't wanna crash your homecoming.

  Supergirl : You wouldn't be crashing anything. It would be lovely to have you there.

  Mon-El : You're serious?

  Supergirl : Absolutely.

  Mon-El : Okay.

• Mon-El : I know you've moved on... from us. But I didn't come back here just to help you fight Reign. When I left Imra, she asked me to... sort out how I felt. And not just about her. About you. And I've been trying to convince myself that friendship between us was the right thing. But I think I've been lying to myself. I'm sorry to spring this on you in-in the midst of you trying to acclimate here.

  Kara Danvers : Don't be sorry.

  Mon-El : I just don't want to hide things, pretend like they don't exist.

  Kara Danvers : After you left, I had a dream where I was walking down this path. A lot like this one. It was peaceful, and serene, and... you were there, waiting for me. And all I wanted was for you to be in that field with me. Now you are.

  Mon-El : Now I am.

• Kara Danvers : My certificate of Kanar-Onn!

  Mon-El : What's that?

  Alura Zor-El : A Kryptonian rite of passage.

  Kara Danvers : Requiring hours and hours of studies of Kryptonian history.

  Alura Zor-El : [with an amused laugh]  You loved it. I would come home every day and find you poring over books, rattling off new information you discovered.

  Kara Danvers : Okay, maybe I was a bit of a nerd.

  Mon-El : Uh... that sounds about right.

• Kara Danvers : Thara Ak-Var, this is Mon-El of the Legion of Superheroes.

  Mon-El : [shaking hands]  Hi. It... it's just like a space police.

  Alura Zor-El : Well, Thara is in law enforcement, as well. She's chief peace officer on Argo.

  Thara Ak-Var : Times have been peaceful ever since we re-settled, thanks to Alura and the work of the High Council.

  Alura Zor-El : Well, we all play our part, but Thara has really stepped up. She knows the city like the back of her hand.

  Kara Danvers : Well, maybe you can help us find something for Mon-El.

  Mon-El : Right. Um... a-a synthetic gravity manipulator?

  Thara Ak-Var : There's a guy in the market who sells anything with a microchip.

  Mon-El : Great.

  Thara Ak-Var : And after that, I'd love for you to meet my family.

  Kara Danvers : Your... your family?

  Thara Ak-Var : My husband, Lir-Al, and our two kids.

  Kara Danvers : Okay, we really need to catch up.

• Mon-El : Why are you smiling?

  Kara Danvers : It just feels amazing to be normal. I'm actually relieved I can't fly. No one to save. Do you hear that undetectable sound in the distance?

  Mon-El : No.

  Kara Danvers : Exactly.

• Val : Mon-El!

  Mon-El : Oh, hey. How you feeling, buddy?

  Val : Good.

  Mon-El : Yeah? Hey, Kara, this is... this is Val.

  Kara Danvers : Nice to meet you.

  [to Mon-El] 

  Kara Danvers : New friend?

  Shopkeeper : Mon-El saved his life. Healed him with the device from his belt.

  Mon-El : [explaining]  It's a development from the future.

  Kara Danvers : Saving people without telling me, hmm?

• Kara Danvers : [suspicious about an accident]  Do you think I'm being paranoid?

  Mon-El : If I've learned anything, it's that your instincts are, uh, usually spot-on.

  [offering her his Legion ring] 

  Mon-El : I think you should take this.

  Kara Danvers : No, Mon-El, don't...

  Mon-El : It's just in case. It will allow you to fly.

• Thara Ak-Var : Did you find the gravity manipulator you were looking for?

  Mon-El : I did, but the guy who sold it to me was sort of an oddball. Do... do you know him?

  Lir-Al : Ol-Irus.

  Thara Ak-Var : Mm-hmm.

  Lir-Al : Everybody knows him.

  Kara Danvers : Ol-Irus, our schoolteacher?

  Thara Ak-Var : Uh-huh. Do you remember that time he made us take home insect samples to study, and they reproduced by the hundreds in our houses?

  Kara Danvers : [laughing at the memory]  Well, maybe you weren't so good at your insect homework, but I'm sure you are an amazing mother.

• Mon-El : Your mom told me I might find you here. Just wanted to make sure you were okay. Are you?

  Kara Danvers : I don't know. Argo survived, my mom's alive. This place is beautiful. It's perfect.

  Mon-El : But?

  Kara Danvers : Something's off. My mom thinks it's because I've had to be on guard my whole life. She thinks I need more time to decompress.

  Mon-El : And what do you think?

  Kara Danvers : Maybe that's part of it. I just feel disconnected in other ways. Thara. When we were young, we... we were so similar. We could predict each other's thoughts. And now...

  Mon-El : Now she's governed by the Kryptonian version of feng shui?

  Kara Danvers : [with an amused laugh]  Basically, yeah. I do envy her, though. I want that happiness for myself. I just don't know if I have it in me. And what I do know is that I'm very happy you're here. Your friendship has made this whole journey a lot easier. So thank you.

• Thara Ak-Var : [after a construction mishap]  I'm so sorry. Usually our construction sites are up to code, but it turns out this one hadn't been inspected yet.

  Kara Danvers : So you think it was an accident?

  Thara Ak-Var : Of course.

  Alura Zor-El : Why? What do you think it was?

  Kara Danvers : I'm not sure. Um... I saw someone after it fell running away.

  Thara Ak-Var : It could have been anyone.

  Kara Danvers : It's just, in my life, nothing happens for no reason. There are no accidents.

  Alura Zor-El : That was on Earth.

  Mon-El : Do you think you could look into it further?

  Thara Ak-Var : Of course. We'll get right on it.

• Kara Danvers : Where's the ship?

  Alura Zor-El : It's gone.

  Mon-El : Look.
