Quotes 

• Supergirl : The Monitor freed Mal? I didn't know he was of this universe.

  Querl Dox : Yes, I thought the Monitor was a Flash and Green Arrow's problem.

  J'onn J'onzz : He's of every universe, and he's everyone's problem. Last year, he tested Kara and Earth-1's heroes with Dr. Deegan and the Book of Destiny. This year, he's testing me to make sure I'm ready for this.

  Alex Danvers : And what exactly is "this"?

  Supergirl : Another reality wave?

  Querl Dox : Not exactly. Whatever it is, it is hurtling through space at an impossible speed. I calculate it will reach the edge of the universe in exactly 5.3 hours, at which point, it will boomerang back. Once it intersects again with our solar system, the results will be, in a word, cataclysmic.

  J'onn J'onzz : Exactly when will it reach us?

  Querl Dox : There are too many variables to calculate precisely, but I will say this. If this wave isn't stopped by tomorrow night... there will be no more "us". No more future. No more anything.

• Alex Danvers : Are there any inhabited planets in its trajectory?

  Querl Dox : Just one.

  Alex Danvers : [seeing the screens]  Argo City.

  J'onn J'onzz : Oh, my god. Superman's there with Lois and...

  Supergirl : My mom.

  Alex Danvers : Can we warn them?

  Querl Dox : Argo's Harun-El sure makes communication difficult, but I will try.

  Supergirl : How much time do they have, Brainy?

  Querl Dox : Not enough.

• Supergirl : Every pet in National City is having a nervous breakdown. This feels bigger than Leviathan.

  Alex Danvers : Well, the USGS didn't register an early warning, so it took everyone completely by surprise.

  Querl Dox : Yes, and she does mean everyone, because this earthquake is, quite literally, worldwide.

  Alex Danvers : But the seismic activity wasn't coming from within the planet, it's coming from without.

  Supergirl : Uh, that's...

  Querl Dox : Extra-normal?

  Supergirl : I was gonna say "impossible", but okay.

  Querl Dox : Yes, yes, a fair descriptor. As would be, uh... unfeasible, unthinkable, absurd, outlandish. But however you choose to describe this event, one thing is absolutely certain. We have...

  J'onn J'onzz : [approaching]  A major crisis on our hands.

• Alex Danvers : [seeing Harbinger appear in the DEO]  Hey! Face down on the floor. Now!

  Supergirl : Did you do this? Did you destroy Argo?

  [the other heroes appear behind her, and Alex gestures for her agents to stand down] 

  Supergirl : [relieved to see Lois and Kal]  Oh, my god, you're okay.

  Lois Lane : Thanks to her. She appeared at the last second and brought us here.

  Superman : We sent Jonathan off in an escape pod.

  Supergirl : And my mother?

  Superman : [shaking his head]  I'm so sorry, Kara.

• Harbinger : There's a wave of antimatter sweeping across this universe... destroying everything in its path.

  Oliver Queen : I've seen the antimatter wave in action. It wiped all of Earth-2 right out of existence.

  Harbinger : I've brought you all to Earth-38 because this is where the Monitor wants you to make your stand. This universe is the tipping point. If we don't stop the antimatter wave here, it will continue to the next universe, and the next and the next... until it has obliterated not only every Earth, but everything... across all reality.

  Oliver Queen : All right. So we are going to need a bigger team. Where's Barry? Where are the Legends?

  Harbinger : Doing reconnaissance. I'm headed to check on them now.

  [vanishes in a flash of light] 

  Batwoman : I... still don't like her.

  Alex Danvers : Well, Brainy's algorithm will help forecast exactly how much time we have until the antimatter wave hits.

  Supergirl : Thank you all for being here. I know we can beat this together.

• Lena Luthor : Are you here to arrest me during the apocalypse, or to try and kill me because you weren't successful the other day?

  Alex Danvers : I wasn't trying to hurt you, Lena. I was trying to stop you from using Myriad.

  Lena Luthor : Right. Is that why you had a Claymore satellite aimed at me? And I didn't use Myriad, that was Eve Teschmacher.

  Alex Danvers : You and I both know that that isn't true.

  [the ground rumbles] 

  Alex Danvers : The reason the sky is red, and the planet feels like it's falling apart is because it is. There is an anti-matter wave that is tearing through the universe right now, and it will destroy Earth if Kara and the other heroes don't stop it. Now, I am working with J'onn to hedge our bets and mount an evacuation, but in order to do that... we need your help. Look, I am sorry that I lied to you. And not just me, and not just Kara. It was all of us. J'onn and Brainy and Nia.

  Lena Luthor : You know, you actually had me believe that you hated Supergirl.

  Alex Danvers : I wasn't pretending about that. And that is a... long story. Listen, I... I know that you feel burned by us. And that there is nothing that I can say in this moment that is gonna change that. But if you could please just put your feelings aside, J'onn and I really, really need your help.

  Lena Luthor : I don't want your apology, Alex. 'Cause you will never again have my friendship or my trust. I've learned my lesson from all of you. But if the world is at stake, then of course I'll help. It is hubris of you to think that I wouldn't, but then, you've made it perfectly clear how little you've thought of me these last few years, so... what do you need me to do?

• Alex Danvers : The president is in. He's speaking with other world leaders. We'll coordinate the effort from National City. But, J'onn... even if we did manage to get enough ships for everyone, we can't just fly off Earth. I mean, space itself is being erased.

  J'onn J'onzz : Earth-1 is the last stop on the anti-matter trajectory. We can try and get everybody there.

  Alex Danvers : Well, one little extrapolator is not gonna do the job.

  J'onn J'onzz : The transmatter portal?

  Alex Danvers : Who could build one big enough? I mean, not even Brainy has.

  J'onn J'onzz : Lena. She built an enormous one for the Daxamites. I'm sure she could build one twice as big.

  Alex Danvers : No, that's too big of a risk. I mean, after Myriad, after everything... she can't be trusted.

  J'onn J'onzz : What other choice do we have?

• Alex Danvers : You almost got it?

  Lena Luthor : Almost done, I think. Yes! Systems are a go. Calculating destination... destination set.

  [sighing in relief] 

  Lena Luthor : Smart call with Galleon's theory.

  Alex Danvers : Oh, lucky guess. But you're the real genius here, so...

  Lena Luthor : Don't mistake us working together for friendship. I told you before, Kara and you showed me who you were, and I accept that. Now let's go help these people get on these ships.

• Alex Danvers : The quantum tower is keeping the wave at bay. Supergirl is...

  [a light sparks as the ground rumbles] 

  Alex Danvers : ...fighting really hard to protect it, but we've got to get this portal up and running.

  Lena Luthor : I'm trying, but the transmat portal works by synthesizing polyelectronic anions. And if I don't get the energy levels right when I interface with the breach device, then the ships will disintegrate when they fly right through it.

  Alex Danvers : Right. That is not a good option.

  Lena Luthor : No.

  Alex Danvers : Have you thought about using an inverse variable to calculate the differential? Galleon's theory.

  Lena Luthor : That's smart. An inverse beta-decay to figure constituent quark, that could work.

  [with another rumble, Alex pulls her out of the way of falling debris] 

  Lena Luthor : Thanks.
