Original subtitles

It was the same dream I've had ever since I was a child.

It still scares me.

I won't judge.

It always starts the same way.

I'm on this empty train, going through a dark tunnel,

but it's endless.

Just a void of nothing.

And so, I start screaming.

I scream for my mother.

But she doesn't come.

No one comes.

And I'm so alone,

and all I want is to get off this train.

But... But I can't.

I know I'm awake now,

but this feels the same.

Feels like I'm on that train, Rachel,

and there is no stopping it.

Yeah, I know how you feel.

But in the dream, you don't get a choice.

You do have a choice, Sebastian.

I don't even know what I am.

My entire life, I thought I was nothing.

Or maybe, it's worse.

Maybe, I'm just...

What?

Damned.

I'm a child of Trigon too.

I made the choice to become a Titan.

Because you do get a choice.

And you'll make the right one.

I know you will.

You're my big bro, after all.

All right.

Just six hours to keep Sebastian away from that witch,

and we are home free.

Or, we're living through the end of days.

Cool.

You could afford to be more optimistic.

Yeah, but that would be lying.

Mother, we found the dissenter.

Hello, Raymond.

You seem troubled.

Go ahead, tell her what you told the others.

You're safe here. Speak.

The others are worried.

Why?

The blood moon has risen, and we've not seen our brother.

What is my flock saying?

That our long wait has been in vain.

Never speak to our mother that way!

You are afraid.

But have faith.

I have waited much longer than you for this moment.

Longer than anyone, really.

I have sacrificed my very self to be reunited with my son.

So...

Yes.

He will be brought home.

Azarath. Metrion. Zinthos.

All clear.

All clear.

Wow, look over there!

It's an empty hallway again.

Why don't you say "All clear" one more time?

It was, really, such a delightful phrase.

It's so obvious Dick's putting me on ice.

"Everyone with no skills, go hide behind the monitors."

No offense.

I think you meant a little offense.

Alternative take?

Dick knows that being a "super" involves

deep commitment and sacrifice,

and he just needs to know it's what you want before you jump in.

Yeah.

For what it's worth, I believe in you.

You'll know your moment when it comes

What?

In Gotham, it felt like I was on the ground.

Making a difference.

Now I'm just dodging VR nunchucks.

It's like they're on the PS5 and I'm stuck on the Wii.

Wow, okay, that actually was really offensive.

- I worked hard on those nunchucks. - Wait, wait, wait.

Do you have any experiments here that involve snakes?

No.

Wasn't it a snake that killed Lex Luthor?

Yes.

Then that's what I call suspicious activity.

- Tim, no. - Come on.

Tim. Oh, God.

No, no. Tim, stop!

- Tim! - Yeah.

What are you gonna do? Um, catch it like it's Ekans?

A first gen Pokemon reference. You really are a geek.

Thank you.

I'm so ready for some action, I'm telling you.

Get up! Get up!

Go, go, go! To the left! Tim, to the left!

That was way too close.

The thing was enormous.

It went by the door, and then we lost it on the monitors.

But we definitely saw it in the north hallway.

I'm going to have a lifetime of nightmares now.

I would be bathing in that thing's digestive enzymes, if it weren't for Tim.

- Thanks, for the visual. - I should have tried to kill it.

That would've been a bad idea.

Or a fatal one.

This is magic. We're in Jinx's world now.

What's your take on this?

Well, a snake is that crazy lady's signature move, right?

Could have been the same snake that killed Lex.

How did the snake get inside of S.T.A.R. Labs?

We had every inch of this place covered.

Doesn't matter now, does it? The point is that it's here.

And Mommy's gonna use that snake to get what she really wants.

Which is Sebastian. So how do we stop this thing?

Well, I am gonna have to consult the only person

capable of handling a snake of this magnitude.

Samuel L. Jackson.

- Jinx. Focus, please. - Okay, okay.

It's magic versus magic, right?

So, if you catch this thing, I will magic your little snake.

So not little.

Then, I will magic your enormous snake.

Happy now?

Make cowboy boots out of the thing, for all I care.

Let's find it. Kory, you and I on the west wing.

Gar and Jinx, take the east.

Conner, guard the silo and make sure nothing gets to Sebastian.

Okay.

- Tim and Bernard-- - Let me guess. Security monitors.

Yeah. For now.

Well, hypothetically, yes, I have turned into a snake before, I think.

Okay, great. So, our superior plan

is that you are gonna turn into a snake,

then, you're gonna make the snake fall in love with you,

and then you're not gonna text the snake back.

Ghost the ghost snake.

Yeah, then it'll be like, "Fuck you, Snake."

Hey, can I, uh... Can I ask you something?

Yeah, spill.

You know about magic...

My guild card came in the post last week.

This is gonna sound crazy.

I hope so. I am getting bored.

A tree of bones tried to talk to me.

Whoa. Tried, or did?

Did.

Okay.

Did this tree of bones happen to be under a red sky?

Yeah.

Yeah, that place has a name.

The Red.

Underwhelming and unoriginal.

Yeah.

What else do you know?

Ugh, not much, really, just rumors.

"It's a place of great power and mystery." You know, rumor-ey stuff.

It's really starting to freak me out, Jinx.

I don't know why I keep seeing it or what it wants from me--

Ugh, Gar, only the most boring people

need to know what's at the other end.

Can't you see that this is a gift?

Sometimes, you just have to go in blind and figure it out.

Oh, my God.

Hey. Are you all right?

Dude?

Okay, buddy. You all right?

Oh! Oh, my God.

We found a dead guy. The snake ate his face off!

Guys, this is really bad.

Be careful, you do not wanna mess with this thing.

I'm sensing a theme here.

Dick really needs to talk to someone about the Titans' merchandising.

I... I can barely find a mug.

Hey, how's life on the outside?

Oh, everything's totally fine.

Dick asked me to take over for you, Rachel.

He figured you could use a break.

Okay. That's nice of him.

Um... Do you want anything, like, chips or something?

Uh, yeah. Okay.

Yeah? And don't play Monopoly without me. It is going to be--

Super. Yeah. Got it.

Yeah.

Take your time.

Okay.

- This feels wrong. - Wrong, how?

Things would play out differently on Tamaran.

What do you mean?

My people would embrace the uglier option.

We may need to reconsider things.

Sebastian is right here. We may never have this chance again.

So you wanna take out the one guy who spent this whole time protecting--

Well, that book was very clear.

- So, if the prophecy is right-- - So, we should all just do

what this picture says?

Look, we've had it worse with Rachel.

We'll do the same thing with Sebastian.

What if Sebastian is not like--

Rachel?

Hey, do you guys have, like, five dollars?

What the hell are you doing?

Getting chips.

Why, you patrolling my sodium intake now?

Where is Sebastian?

In the silo with Conner, like you wanted.

We wanted?

Yeah. You sent him there to give me a break?

What's going on?

I thought that it was safer for me at the silo?

It was. But Dick thinks there's an even safer place for you.

I'm taking you there now.

That's good. So, where is it?

Nearby. Outside. We just need to leave S.T.A.R. Labs.

Actually, uh, look. I would feel a lot better

if we could just go back to the silo.

Or I, I can go back myself. I bet Dick wouldn't even mind.

But you can't. Everybody's waiting for you.

Who?

The Titans?

My son.

Oh, my God.

You get more beautiful every time I see you.

I would never take you by force.

You already know the words.

I'm here to warn you.

Do not trust the Titans.

They mean to harm you.

And I would hate to see you die--

Conner, what's going on?

Dick, just walk away.

Why don't we take a minute to sit down and just cool off a little bit?

I feel perfectly cool, Dick.

When I told you to walk away,

I meant it.

Conner, stop!

Look, this shit isn't magic, okay?

Well, technically it is. But what I mean is,

we've only got three minutes until this guy is up and at it again.

I know that was a close call, but we will protect you.

Is that really true, though?

Because I obviously wasn't safe at S.T.A.R. Labs.

And that woman told me I wasn't safe with you, either,

that I was gonna get killed.

Yes, you weren't safe. Which is why I got you the hell out of there.

We will figure this out. I promise.

It'll be all right. You can trust Kory with your life.

I did.

I know you have questions. We do too.

We just need to buy some time to get some answers.

Hey. Elko Diner.

Okay, Universe. We hear you.

Who's in the mood for pancakes?

Dick, we may be in over our heads, man.

Look, she was able to summon a beast

inside the most secure lab on the planet.

Who knows what she's done to Conner

and how much time we have left until the end of the world.

Five hours and 15 minutes.

And the world is not ending, okay?

I told Kory we'd get through this, and we will.

Where did she take him?

Don't worry about her. She's taking care of Sebastian.

We've gotta take care of this.

Give me some time with Conner.

Hey, Dick.

Sorry about before.

I guess things got a little heated.

That's an understatement.

Hey, what do you say we take these cuffs off?

The kryptonite stays on.

Hmm. That's disappointing.

Don't worry about that.

Jesus. Don't resist.

We all keep fighting and fighting.

Maybe...

Maybe, now's the time to let go.

What's the matter? You scared?

I can't believe they've got one of these in Metropolis.

Yeah, it turns out, it's not just a metaphysical diner,

but a chain, too.

Metaphysical? So, it'll protect me?

Yeah, I, uh, hope so.

I'm sorry, but I'm just not seeing

how a milkshake is gonna save my life.

Isn't there somewhere else we can go?

Like a witness protection thing? Or a different country?

I've always wanted to go to Bimini.

Just give me a second.

Hi, you two. Right this way.

There we go.

Koriand'r.

Zadira.

You brought us here.

Why?

We don't have much time.

We will find him soon enough, Mother.

We'll bring your son home.

Uh, I can't feel him. It's just nothing. It's empty.

We have located Sebastian.

Where?

A place that none of us can reach.

You're not safe here. Not until you gain

enough power for the coming war with--

Trigon. I know.

Are you done?

I see, I'm still not allowed to interrupt.

You were always a wise pupil. Keep it that way.

Pupil?

I'll fill you in later.

There's no time. The shield around this place will only last so long.

And the evil woman will certainly come to claim what is hers.

She's talking about me.

Don't listen to her. You're not "hers."

He is. That is precisely the problem.

And the forces working with Trigon

will stop at nothing to assure his ascension.

Not if Sebastian has a say. And he doesn't have to do anything he doesn't want to.

He won't be able to resist his destiny.

No one can.

We just have to keep him safe until the blood moon passes.

This naive optimism is... touching.

And from where is the source?

The cult's book.

We found that it details the prophecy.

He can only rise to power while the blood moon is still in the sky.

And what makes you think that you can save him from his mother,

when you barely understand your capabilities,

let alone your responsibilities to people of Tamaran?

I owe them nothing.

I fulfilled my mission.

Rachel defeated Trigon. The prophecy was denied.

As will this one.

You did nothing to change the girl.

The change was already in her.

You were merely a spectator to destiny running its course.

That's not true. Kory helped me.

You know, we don't have to listen to her. We can just leave.

Do so at your own peril.

But you know you won't be able to protect them.

I can't save anyone on an empty stomach.

Kitchen.

Great Trigon. Please.

Speak to me.

I'm begging you.

Our son was taken away by the Tamaranean to a place I cannot enter.

I need your guidance.

Forgive me. Forgive me!

Forgive me. You have forsaken me.

You have forsaken me, when I need you! I need our son!

Trigon, you're here?

Oh. Your Grace, thank you, for heeding me.

That's not true.

I love none more than I love you.

I'm sorry.

I never meant to place anyone above my Lord.

What should I do?

I understand.

Someone always pays.

Probability of organ failure, 80%.

Dick, please, please don't let me die like this.

Hey, it's gonna be okay, buddy.

I'm so scared.

I understand.

We're not going anywhere.

Okay. Okay.

I want you to hear me. We're gonna save you.

Okay, you're gonna save me. You're gonna save me.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Where have I heard that before?

Oh. Oh, right.

Why don't we just ask Hank?

That's what you said to him, right?

Right before he died, right?

- Put him under. - Oh, come on. Come on.

Listen, we got to get that thing out of him.

- Tell me you got something. - Well, that's no snake.

That is a curse.

So, we need a magical expulsion, which I've never done before.

And if it goes wrong...

Well, uh, I think you can guess.

But for it to work, I'd need my blue ash.

It's from the ground up teeth of a Baba Yaga, a John Constantine special.

Then we go with that. We have no choice.

- I can't. - Why?

Well, because we need to get close enough to that snake to fight it directly

and we can't rouse its defenses. It's a total fortress.

Then how do we get in the fortress?

The Trojan horse.

A man on the inside.

We need something small enough to get into his body

and stay undetected.

Like a virus?

But a virus smart enough to target only the snake.

What?

Trigon has spoken to you.

You understand I don't want to do this.

You must be strong for both of us.

You forgave me for what I did to you.

And you have been by my side since, despite everything.

Loyal, trustworthy...

your strength has guided me through the darkest times.

And now it is time to bring Sebastian to his rightful place.

Quickly, please.

I will honor your sacrifice forever. I swear.

Okay, here's the big idea.

I turn into to a virus. Any questions?

I have plenty. Let's start with the basics.

I thought you could only turn into animals.

Well, technically, Niles Caulder said

that I could unzip and rearrange my DNA into anything

as long as it has DNA

And viruses are actually the most primordial form of DNA,

so technically it should work.

"Should"?

Theoretically, uh, the idea would be that Gar's virus

becomes a carrier agent for Jinx's blue ash.

So, Gar, as a virus, gets inside Conner's body,

replicates, infects the snake...

And boom! Conner lives.

What?

If Conner dies, so does Gar.

A virus can't live outside a dead host.

And...

- There's more? - And...

We haven't exactly figured out an exit strategy for me

once I'm actually in Conner's body,

so I could kinda get stuck.

Come with me.

Listen, I need you to think clearly about this

away from everyone else.

I'm fine.

Gar. Take a moment. Okay?

It's bad enough that Conner's life is on the line.

I understand the risk.

But I've got this, Dick.

If you were me, would you even hesitate?

Taught me too well, man.

We'll figure it out. We always do.

All right.

Here we go.

Come on, Gar virus.

This won't work.

Not that I care.

It will. It just needs to replicate.

He's doing it.

Now he needs to surround it.

Come on.

Are you casting a spell?

No. I'm praying.

He's there.

Right. Now he just needs to infect the snake.

It should only take a couple of seconds.

His vitals are plummeting.

V-Fib. It's his heart!

We need adrenaline.

Tim!

Okay.

He did it. Now all we need to do

is figure out how to get Gar out of--

Oh, God.

What the hell is happening?

Conner!

Looks like all that training paid off.

You okay?

Yes.

Good.

Straight? No chaser?

That is a lot of...

syrup.

See how good life can be

when you're not worrying about the end of the world?

Yeah. It suddenly seems more... sugary.

That is what being a Titan is all about. The snacks.

When Dick's not looking, of course.

You're gonna love it.

Hey, I didn't mean to say anything upsetting.

No, no, I'm sorry. It's just, um... It's me.

It's 'cause... I'm-I'm not used to people.

- Hey. - Sorry.

You're okay.

I got you.

Do you... What is that? Do you see...

Hey, hey.

Come on. I was gonna eat that.

Well, you're not anymore.

Look at them. Thick as thieves.

Yeah.

Well, he had no family.

Must have been a very lonely life.

Rachel knows what he went through.

Yes. And her past blinds her to the truth.

But yours illuminates it.

Remember your training.

Order and chaos.

When chaos rises...

Order must rise to meet it.

Yes. But they are not just words.

What are you doing?

You will employ your powers to save the girl,

but not to stop the destruction that he will bring?

He will bring the end of days.

I have seen it. And you must too.

Pick me up, Daddy!

Daddy?

Come here.

Come on. They're waiting for us.

You wanna blow the candles out? Ready, one, two, three!

Yay!

Happy birthday! Good girl!

What did you do?

Say it.

Admit what he is.

We need to get out of here. Now.

She has seen what your fate is,

what the monster will do if he's not stopped.

Your destiny was sealed in the stars long ago.

You were never meant to save Sebastian.

You were born to kill him.

He hasn't done anything wrong.

Yet. The blood moon is upon us.

If you don't kill him now, that is the fate that awaits you.

Do you want to lose all your friends?

Do you want the entire world swallowed whole

because you insist on defending a stranger?

You're going to kill me, aren't you?

Kory, no.

Now is the time, Koriand'r.

My entire past has been a gigantic lie.

Why should I trust anything you're saying now?

I'm not gonna hurt you.

Oh, thank you.

And you can go.

The decision is yours.

Beware the consequences.

Good riddance!

Rachel, Sebastian, get back!

No, wait!

It's me you want.

I don't want people dying for me.

Thank you for being kind to me, Rachel.

- Azarath... - Sebastian, no!

Metrion, Zinthos!

Hey!

Hi.

You were right.

You're gonna have to be more specific.

About what you said, earlier.

I'd know my moment when it came.

Oh, yeah. And, hey, you were incredible.

That snake didn't stand a chance.

That's not my moment.

Any updates on Conner?

Sleeping like a newborn.

Vitals are steady and, uh, no damage to his internal organs.

And you're sure this is gonna work?

One way to find out.

Oh, okay, um, I think we have some action here.

Yes! All right, look.

It's... Looks like a...

Looks like maybe a foot?

Better be more than a foot.

Come on, buddy.

Gar?

Now that was a wild ride.

Jesus!

Yes, it was. Good to have you back.

How's Conner?

He's all healed up.

Yes! Yes!

Okay! And now we're doing this.

Brother Blood! Brother Blood! Brother Blood!

Welcome home.
