Quotes
-
James Olsen : You realize you have two donuts in your hands, and that those don't even go together?
Kara Danvers : Do I?
James Olsen : Yeah.
Kara Danvers : [putting them down] Okay. I may be eating my feelings.

Kara Danvers : It's Alex. I thought we were good after the mind wipe, but I was wrong. The way she spoke to me last night, to Supergirl... she was so cold.
James Olsen : She doesn't know that you're Supergirl.
Kara Danvers : I know. Didn't realize how much it would hurt. I mean, not knowing that my favorite movie is "The Wizard of Oz"? Eliza thought that I would relate to the adventures of a young girl being lost in a faraway land. It was... it was my favorite movie, because I was from a different planet. And now, Alex doesn't know that. Not anymore.
James Olsen : Yeah. It's gotta be tough. I'm sorry. That must be really hard for you.
Kara Danvers : What if the mind wipe has consequences that we didn't anticipate?
James Olsen : You can't think that way. Look, maybe the best course of action right now is to throw yourself into your work and just take your mind off of it.

Querl Dox : You two cannot be on the same team again.
James Olsen : I agree. Inside jokes, shorthand from Midvale. This is an unfair advantage.
Kara Danvers : So?
Lena Luthor : Hey, but, you know, maybe we have an unfair advantage, too.
James Olsen : [amused laugh] You could be right. Greatest human invention?
Lena Luthor : [answering simultaneously] The electric light.
James Olsen : Printing press.
Alex Danvers : Oh. Fail.

Mackenzie : Mr. Olsen, I wanted to pitch you a story, but it's, um...
James Olsen : [gesturing for her to sit down] Please.
Mackenzie : It's kind of sensitive.
James Olsen : Yeah, no worries.
Mackenzie : It's about L-Corp and Ms. Luthor. My source in the accouting department found a glitch in their numbers. Caught rumors of a black budget; he thinks it has to do with genetic testing.
James Olsen : Genetic testing isn't illegal.
Mackenzie : If it wasn't shady, why would they keep it off the books? So, can I follow the money?
James Olsen : Yeah. But send me what you have first. I want to vet it.

James Olsen : What's that?
Lena Luthor : Game night training.
[he laughs]
Lena Luthor : What? Okay, listen, some couples need to work on their communication skills, and others need to work on their competitive trivia skills. You and I are deeply connected, Mr. Olsen. We just need our game night performance to reflect that.
James Olsen : And you hate to lose.
Lena Luthor : And I hate to lose.
