1
00:00:20,272 --> 00:00:23,738
I'm sorry your fellow
prisoners and your saviors fled.

2
00:00:23,773 --> 00:00:26,710
I was looking forward
to 18 against one.

3
00:00:26,748 --> 00:00:30,084
Your lust for needless battle
eludes me.

4
00:00:32,816 --> 00:00:35,292
Let us end this.

5
00:00:43,032 --> 00:00:44,933
Mongul is neutralized.

6
00:00:45,001 --> 00:00:47,703
Forget Mongul.
Only the Key matters.

7
00:00:48,355 --> 00:00:52,380
The Crystal Key... Is gone.

8
00:00:55,545 --> 00:00:59,414
Our priority must now shift
to guarding the Key Chamber,

9
00:00:59,477 --> 00:01:01,885
so that whomever
stole the Key

10
00:01:01,952 --> 00:01:04,988
cannot use it to reactivate
the Warworld.

11
00:01:05,056 --> 00:01:10,127
Agreed. But the Justice League already
holds the Chamber for that exact purpose.

12
00:01:10,195 --> 00:01:15,989
And unfortunately, our Ambassador
has no appetite for direct confrontation.

13
00:01:16,028 --> 00:01:21,606
Our only choice is to patrol the Chamber's
perimeter like mere security guards.

14
00:01:21,673 --> 00:01:25,476
- It is galling.
- But, as with all Reach warriors...

15
00:01:25,503 --> 00:01:28,374
We live to serve.

16
00:01:43,173 --> 00:01:46,818
Look! I know this missing Key is
important, but we need to focus on...

17
00:01:46,857 --> 00:01:51,034
<i>Blue Beetle, the so-called Reach hero
has dominated this news cycle</i>

18
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:55,241
<i>with U.N. Secretary General Tseng
announcing his plan to present Beetle</i>

19
00:01:55,273 --> 00:01:59,476
<i>with the International Medal of Valor
for saving the Earth from the Warworld.</i>

20
00:01:59,762 --> 00:02:01,897
That's a load of good press
for a traitor.

21
00:02:01,933 --> 00:02:03,484
Hey! Don't blame Blue.

22
00:02:03,525 --> 00:02:05,518
He's just much a captive
of the Reach as we were.

23
00:02:05,542 --> 00:02:07,642
We have to set him free.

24
00:02:09,219 --> 00:02:12,700
You know, before he conquers the Earth
and enslaves all mankind.

27

The Toyman's toys
don't come cheap.

28
00:02:43,412 --> 00:02:45,146
<i>In fact...</i>

29
00:02:45,154 --> 00:02:48,123
They break the bank!

30
00:02:52,054 --> 00:02:53,655
No, no!

31
00:03:00,235 --> 00:03:02,423
Hero, what...
He nearly got us killed!

32
00:03:02,490 --> 00:03:04,258
And the Reach stinks!

33
00:03:04,325 --> 00:03:08,141
No fair! I get the hero who took
down the Warworld single-handed?!

34
00:03:08,165 --> 00:03:10,934
This is Metropolis.
Where's Superman?

35
00:03:38,025 --> 00:03:40,527
Here you go, officers.

36
00:03:40,594 --> 00:03:43,507
Time to put the toy man
back on the shelf.

37
00:03:43,578 --> 00:03:46,200
No fair, no fair, no fair!

38
00:03:46,268 --> 00:03:47,935
Yeah, OK, yeah,
that was pretty cool.

39
00:03:48,003 --> 00:03:49,403
And the Reach is, though.

40
00:03:49,471 --> 00:03:51,602
Blue Beetle, Blue Beetle,
a moment?

41
00:03:51,626 --> 00:03:54,776
For the famed Cat Grant?
I'm at your service.

42
00:03:54,804 --> 00:03:58,881
<i>Heck, I'm at everyone's service.
That's just how I roll.</i>

43
00:03:58,948 --> 00:04:01,312
<i>So, you've begun
handling situations</i>

44
00:04:01,335 --> 00:04:04,365
<i>that, once upon a time,
were a job for Superman.</i>

45
00:04:04,389 --> 00:04:09,090
Hey, if the Justice League's too busy,
I'm happy to pick up the slack.

46
00:04:09,196 --> 00:04:10,897
<i>Why am I still waving?</i>

47
00:04:10,944 --> 00:04:14,424
<i>I look like an idiot!
Scarab, get us out of here!</i>

48
00:04:14,475 --> 00:04:18,944
<i>The Reach desires the crowd's adulation,
and we serve the Reach.</i>

49
00:04:19,012 --> 00:04:20,680
<i>Quite correct, scarab.</i>

50
00:04:20,747 --> 00:04:23,482
<i>Fighting human crime
is without benefit.</i>

51
00:04:23,550 --> 00:04:27,787
Making sure the crowd appreciates it?
Priceless.

52
00:04:27,854 --> 00:04:32,057
Given the recent negative publicity
over our hidden invasion fleet,

53
00:04:32,125 --> 00:04:35,528
it is fortunate your puppet
is appreciated at all.

54
00:04:35,595 --> 00:04:38,673
Please. The meat
loves their heroes.

55
00:04:38,697 --> 00:04:41,298
You worry too much, scientist.

56
00:04:44,437 --> 00:04:47,874
I am so honored
by your kind attentions...

57
00:04:47,941 --> 00:04:50,809
And so honored
to be your hero.

58
00:04:52,768 --> 00:04:55,715
<i>That's not the way I talk!
And stop waving!</i>

59
00:04:55,783 --> 00:04:57,850
<i>Look like
the Queen of England.</i>

60
00:04:58,262 --> 00:05:00,748
<i>Great, now I'm Peter Pan.</i>

61
00:05:01,555 --> 00:05:06,993
Uh, as your profile expands,
do you worry about increased scrutiny?

62
00:05:07,060 --> 00:05:08,828
Nah. I welcome it.

63
00:05:08,896 --> 00:05:11,104
Let 'em watch.

64
00:05:28,436 --> 00:05:31,696
<i>Hi, La'gaan.
I'm glad your leg's all healed.</i>

65
00:05:31,764 --> 00:05:36,936
<i>- Angel fish! You're here.
- I... Came to pick you up,</i>

66
00:05:37,004 --> 00:05:40,302
<i>- Bring you back to the surface world.
- That's so sweet.</i>

67
00:05:40,333 --> 00:05:42,608
<i>I was just going
to zeta back tomorrow.</i>

68
00:05:42,646 --> 00:05:46,513
<i>I thought we could use the trip
as an opportunity to... talk.</i>

69
00:05:46,581 --> 00:05:50,343
<i>To talk?
That's... Great.</i>

70
00:05:53,941 --> 00:05:56,891
<i>We will soon arrive
at your home, Jaime Reyes.</i>

71
00:05:56,959 --> 00:05:59,627
<i>Ugh, could we not?
Nothing's worse than watching</i>

72
00:05:59,695 --> 00:06:02,985
<i>you and the Ambassador pretend
to be me to my family.</i>

73
00:06:03,015 --> 00:06:06,017
<i>Any alternative tactic
would only endanger them.</i>

74
00:06:06,044 --> 00:06:07,511
<i>Congratulations, scarab.</i>

75
00:06:07,547 --> 00:06:10,048
<i>You took the words
right out of my mouth.</i>

76
00:06:14,377 --> 00:06:16,886
<i>Breech of defensive perimeter.</i>

77
00:06:18,243 --> 00:06:22,191
Batgirl?! What are you doing?
You know this won't hold us.

78
00:06:22,259 --> 00:06:25,887
- It'll hold for a couple seconds.
<i>- Batgirl, please!</i>

79
00:06:25,910 --> 00:06:27,630
<i>They're going
to make me hurt you!</i>

80
00:06:27,655 --> 00:06:30,567
<i>The Batgirl cannot hear
your true voice, Jaime Reyes.</i>

81
00:06:30,635 --> 00:06:33,905
- And a couple seconds...
- Is more than I need.

82
00:06:49,101 --> 00:06:51,289
Sweet dreams, Blue.

83
00:07:06,406 --> 00:07:08,874
<i>Scarab,
what are you waiting for?!</i>

84
00:07:08,942 --> 00:07:14,012
<i>I am establishing the Impulse's pattern of
movement, anticipating where he will be.</i>

85
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:15,720
<i>Target point.</i>

86
00:07:18,985 --> 00:07:22,600
<i>OK, you're down.
You won. Let's go.</i>

87
00:07:22,639 --> 00:07:24,623
<i>I think not.</i>

88
00:07:24,691 --> 00:07:29,662
<i>As this street is currently deserted,
we must seize the opportunity.</i>

89
00:07:29,730 --> 00:07:33,876
<i>Scarab. Kill them both.</i>

90
00:07:45,196 --> 00:07:47,575
<i>Scarab!
You don't have to do this!</i>

91
00:07:47,607 --> 00:07:50,033
But he does.
And so do you.

92
00:07:50,072 --> 00:07:53,931
In fact, it will be a good lesson
for you to helplessly observe

93
00:07:53,966 --> 00:07:57,001
your own body murder
your former friends.

94
00:07:57,068 --> 00:08:00,801
The first kills are always
the hardest, my boy.

95
00:08:00,831 --> 00:08:02,639
<i>Might as well
get them over with.</i>

96
00:08:02,683 --> 00:08:07,478
<i>Scarab, please! We've fought side
by side with these guys. Do something!</i>

97
00:08:07,546 --> 00:08:10,921
<i>I must do
as designed parameters dictate.</i>

98
00:08:17,723 --> 00:08:19,657
Scarab!
Your attack is ineffective.

99
00:08:19,701 --> 00:08:24,178
- Analyze this containment field.
<i>- Analysis already complete.</i>

100
00:08:24,228 --> 00:08:28,062
<i>Field displays energy signature
consistent with the alien cooperative.</i>

101
00:08:28,098 --> 00:08:31,735
Cooperative technology
draws power from kinetic energy.

102
00:08:31,774 --> 00:08:35,171
The scarab's physical attack
is strengthening the force bubble.

103
00:08:35,239 --> 00:08:36,506
It should know this!

104
00:08:36,574 --> 00:08:41,424
Scarab! Do you have the means
to effectively circumvent this tech?

105
00:08:41,471 --> 00:08:45,508
<i>- I do. A side attack would...</i>
- Don't explain! Do it.

106
00:08:45,853 --> 00:08:49,345
[backwards spell]

107
00:08:53,706 --> 00:08:56,094
I've reinforced Rocket's
force bubble with my magics.

108
00:08:56,161 --> 00:08:59,847
Blue's not going anywhere.
[speaking backwards]

109
00:09:01,601 --> 00:09:05,221
<i>Ha! Don't you get it,
extraterrestre?</i>

110
00:09:05,252 --> 00:09:08,238
<i>Impulse and Batgirl were decoys.</i>

111
00:09:08,285 --> 00:09:11,549
<i>A distraction from Rocket
and Zatanna's real attack!</i>

112
00:09:11,645 --> 00:09:14,481
<i>I guess some first kills
are harder than others.</i>

113
00:09:14,549 --> 00:09:16,850
Scarab! Proceed
with countermeasures.

114
00:09:16,918 --> 00:09:18,885
<i>There are no known
countermeasures</i>

115
00:09:18,914 --> 00:09:23,042
<i>against this specific combination
of magic and cooperative technology.</i>

116
00:09:23,065 --> 00:09:25,391
This goes well.

117
00:09:29,075 --> 00:09:31,931
<i>This isn't going well.</i>

118
00:09:31,999 --> 00:09:33,867
I'm sorry.

119
00:09:33,935 --> 00:09:37,003
You're sorry?
I'm the one getting dumped.

120
00:09:37,071 --> 00:09:39,386
La'gaan,
try to understand.

121
00:09:39,417 --> 00:09:42,743
All those weeks in captivity
gave me time to think;

122
00:09:42,811 --> 00:09:44,345
To... to gain clarity.

123
00:09:44,413 --> 00:09:46,948
I know now,
I haven't been fair to you.

124
00:09:47,016 --> 00:09:48,817
Shouldn't I get
to decide that?

125
00:09:48,884 --> 00:09:52,152
You don't see it yet.
But the hard truth is,

126
00:09:52,175 --> 00:09:56,692
we only got together because you
made me feel better about myself.

127
00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,296
And that's not a relationship.
It's selfishness.

128
00:10:00,364 --> 00:10:02,798
That's just how it started,
Angel fish.

129
00:10:02,866 --> 00:10:05,134
What matters
is what it might become.

130
00:10:05,202 --> 00:10:09,550
Except we'll never be anymore to each
other than what we are right now.

131
00:10:09,573 --> 00:10:11,007
Neptune's beard!

132
00:10:11,075 --> 00:10:15,645
- This is about Connor, isn't it?
- No. It isn't about him.

133
00:10:15,713 --> 00:10:20,071
Or you. This is about me.
I can't give you what you want...

134
00:10:20,126 --> 00:10:22,752
To be something other
than my rebound guy.

135
00:10:22,820 --> 00:10:25,021
And you deserve more than that.

136
00:10:25,089 --> 00:10:28,203
You're right, M'gann. I do.

137
00:10:37,369 --> 00:10:41,783
Enjoy your advantage while you can.
The Reach track my every move.

138
00:10:41,822 --> 00:10:43,608
And when
we're through with you,

139
00:10:43,675 --> 00:10:47,411
there won't be enough left
for a DNA identification.

140
00:10:47,479 --> 00:10:51,301
<i>Nice death threat! Could it get
any more technical and dull?</i>

141
00:10:51,345 --> 00:10:53,586
Why are they not en route
to one of their headquarters?

142
00:10:53,638 --> 00:10:55,519
We need to find out
where they're taking him!

143
00:10:55,555 --> 00:10:57,489
Tell me our destination.

144
00:10:57,588 --> 00:11:00,990
And I'll make
your deaths painless.

145
00:11:01,253 --> 00:11:03,387
<i>Oh, yeah, that scared 'em.</i>

146
00:11:17,206 --> 00:11:19,197
<i>What do they hope
to find here?</i>

147
00:11:19,245 --> 00:11:22,147
<i>Insufficient data.</i>

148
00:11:29,937 --> 00:11:31,451
We've got company!

149
00:11:31,477 --> 00:11:34,922
And I'm otherwise occupied
maintaining this bubble around Blue.

150
00:11:34,990 --> 00:11:38,277
Chillax, Rock'. We're prepped
for Queen Bee's tin soldiers.

151
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,755
[speaking backwards]

152
00:11:40,964 --> 00:11:44,443
- Hey! I was going to do that.
- You can still knock 'em out.

153
00:11:44,459 --> 00:11:46,470
Oh, yeah! Crash!

154
00:11:48,805 --> 00:11:52,396
Hey, hey, hey, let go!
Let go!

155
00:11:55,666 --> 00:11:57,746
Rocket! The force bubble!

156
00:11:57,782 --> 00:12:00,666
Holding!
But I'm a sitting duck here!

157
00:12:03,228 --> 00:12:06,756
You were fools to bring us here.
Queen Bee is our ally,

158
00:12:06,823 --> 00:12:08,848
and her minions
will destroy you.

159
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,442
If only these bubbles
were soundproof.

160
00:12:22,340 --> 00:12:24,107
We don't have time for this.

161
00:12:24,175 --> 00:12:26,176
[speaking backwards]

162
00:12:33,069 --> 00:12:35,418
Girlfriend,
someday you have to tell me

163
00:12:35,486 --> 00:12:37,954
how you figure out
those backwards words so fast.

164
00:12:38,022 --> 00:12:40,490
Maybe backwards
is my native tongue.

165
00:12:40,557 --> 00:12:43,192
- Seriously?
- Come on, let's get to work.

166
00:12:49,397 --> 00:12:50,900
Here.

167
00:12:50,967 --> 00:12:53,269
You, uh, sure you've got
the power for this?

168
00:12:53,337 --> 00:12:55,131
Me? No.

169
00:12:55,835 --> 00:12:58,185
But I'll summon it
from those who do.

170
00:13:00,710 --> 00:13:04,609
[speaking backwards]

171
00:13:06,883 --> 00:13:09,400
<i>Man! I wish I could ask
what's going on.</i>

172
00:13:09,439 --> 00:13:12,043
<i>They doubtless plan
to destroy Blue Beetle.</i>

173
00:13:12,099 --> 00:13:14,767
<i>Ending you and this scarab
in the process.</i>

174
00:13:14,835 --> 00:13:17,737
<i>Hermano, if that's your only
takeaway from our time together,</i>

175
00:13:17,805 --> 00:13:20,073
<i>you haven't learned a thing!</i>

176
00:13:22,543 --> 00:13:26,145
I do not like the implications
of that scarab imagery.

177
00:13:26,213 --> 00:13:31,016
We still know nothing of what
put this scarab off-mode for 4,000 years.

178
00:13:31,084 --> 00:13:33,752
You worry too much.

179
00:13:35,916 --> 00:13:38,865
They all die now!

180
00:13:49,569 --> 00:13:53,172
Guys, this is all on you!
I still got my own Beetle to hold.

181
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,875
<i>And Z's smacked in the middle
of her mystic trance.</i>

182
00:13:55,942 --> 00:13:59,434
Oh, great. Not like our tushes haven't
been kicked by one Beetle already.

183
00:13:59,466 --> 00:14:02,539
But this Beetle comes with his own
personal kryptonite. Go!

184
00:14:02,570 --> 00:14:03,779
Gone!

185
00:14:09,857 --> 00:14:11,573
Ha! Crash.

186
00:14:11,628 --> 00:14:13,827
Those Martians really can't
take the heat.

187
00:14:13,894 --> 00:14:17,697
No, but stay alert.
He has other skills to compensate.

188
00:14:46,192 --> 00:14:48,072
You can thank us later.

189
00:14:53,133 --> 00:14:56,903
Green Beetle is outnumbered. You must
summon Black Beetle immediately.

190
00:14:56,971 --> 00:15:00,774
Black Beetle cannot leave his post
guarding the Warworld's Key Chamber.

191
00:15:00,842 --> 00:15:03,644
Nor do I require his help.

192
00:15:09,853 --> 00:15:12,287
Uh, Z,
we're on the clock, here.

193
00:15:13,042 --> 00:15:18,288
[speaking backwards]

194
00:15:30,140 --> 00:15:32,074
Wicked!

195
00:15:32,142 --> 00:15:34,644
[speaking backwards]

196
00:15:55,832 --> 00:16:00,460
Fools! You will all die!

197
00:16:00,485 --> 00:16:04,136
[speaking backwards]

198
00:16:27,173 --> 00:16:28,507
No!

199
00:16:28,574 --> 00:16:32,844
Beetles Blue and Green are off-mode.
We've lost both!

200
00:16:32,912 --> 00:16:35,190
Why didn't you listen?
I warned you!

201
00:16:35,221 --> 00:16:40,119
Say one... More... Word.

202
00:16:50,031 --> 00:16:53,375
- Ahh.
- Zatanna, you OK? Did it work?

203
00:16:55,138 --> 00:16:57,507
Or are we back to square one?

204
00:16:57,574 --> 00:17:01,078
- Who controls the Beetles?
- Well, let's find out.

205
00:17:01,145 --> 00:17:05,045
[speaking backwards]

206
00:17:07,142 --> 00:17:12,325
<i>It worked. Jaime and B'arzz O'oomm
are back in control of their own bodies.</i>

207
00:17:12,352 --> 00:17:15,298
It's true. I can feel it!

208
00:17:15,561 --> 00:17:17,395
I'm free of the Reach.

209
00:17:17,463 --> 00:17:19,050
For real this time.

210
00:17:19,089 --> 00:17:22,867
You're 100% sure? Because
we've been through this before.

211
00:17:22,935 --> 00:17:25,216
I am certain of it.

212
00:17:25,386 --> 00:17:28,155
Reading no external signals
since Zatanna worked her mojo.

213
00:17:28,229 --> 00:17:29,997
Neither Beetle is in contact
with the Reach.

214
00:17:30,269 --> 00:17:33,994
Hey, hey, hey, <i>hermano!</i>
Congrats!

215
00:17:34,031 --> 00:17:35,575
Thank you.

216
00:17:36,225 --> 00:17:40,569
<i>- Congratulations, Jaime Reyes.</i>
- Oh, right. Like you're happy about this.

217
00:17:40,597 --> 00:17:42,365
I am! I swear!

218
00:17:42,432 --> 00:17:45,794
<i>If this mistrust is your only
takeaway from our time together,</i>

219
00:17:45,803 --> 00:17:47,418
<i>you haven't learned a thing.</i>

220
00:17:47,455 --> 00:17:51,927
<i>This scarab far prefers our partnership
to being slaves to the Reach.</i>

221
00:17:51,958 --> 00:17:56,347
- You know, I believe you.
- Of course you do. Up high.

222
00:17:56,681 --> 00:17:58,849
<i>It has been so long...</i>

223
00:17:58,917 --> 00:18:03,954
<i>I had all but forgotten the sensation
of controlling my own body.</i>

224
00:18:04,021 --> 00:18:06,556
<i>My gratitude knows no bounds.</i>

225
00:18:06,624 --> 00:18:10,227
Uh, that's great, but Queen Bee's goons
are waking up!

226
00:18:10,295 --> 00:18:12,392
Which means it's time to go.

227
00:18:21,439 --> 00:18:24,642
So spill. How did you know
how to cure us?

228
00:18:24,669 --> 00:18:26,803
That temple wasn't even
in the Reach's database.

229
00:18:26,832 --> 00:18:30,201
Bumblebee and I first came across it
months ago, on another mission.

230
00:18:30,237 --> 00:18:32,915
<i>I couldn't help noticing
the Blue Scarab imagery,</i>

231
00:18:32,950 --> 00:18:36,085
<i>and recorded a holographic file
of the symbols in hieroglyphics.</i>

232
00:18:36,153 --> 00:18:39,836
<i>Dr. Fate was able to translate the glyphs,
which revealed a mystic ceremony</i>

233
00:18:39,859 --> 00:18:43,059
<i>the ancients had used to cleanse
the scarab of Reach control.</i>

234
00:18:43,127 --> 00:18:45,880
That's why my scarab
was off-mode when I found it.

235
00:18:45,922 --> 00:18:49,625
<i>I had been cleansed upon landing
on Earth 4,000 years ago.</i>

236
00:18:49,669 --> 00:18:52,238
Because the ritual
used magic of human origin,

237
00:18:52,310 --> 00:18:55,105
Fate, a lord of order,
could not perform it.

238
00:18:55,173 --> 00:18:56,907
So he prepped me instead.

239
00:18:56,975 --> 00:18:59,543
Meanwhile, Batgirl
and I got with the hacking.

240
00:18:59,611 --> 00:19:03,286
<i>Starting with the computer files of the
previous Blue Beetle, the late Ted Kord.</i>

241
00:19:03,312 --> 00:19:06,450
<i>Ted's files revealed that
an archaeologist named Dan Garrett</i>

242
00:19:06,518 --> 00:19:09,635
<i>first discovered both the temple
and the scarab in 1939.</i>

243
00:19:09,658 --> 00:19:11,733
<i>It fused with him
the way it fused with you,</i>

244
00:19:11,801 --> 00:19:14,002
<i>but Dan assumed it was some kind
of mystic artifact,</i>

245
00:19:14,070 --> 00:19:17,703
<i>and he used it to become the first
Blue Beetle of modern times.</i>

246
00:19:17,728 --> 00:19:22,265
When Dan passed away, he left
the scarab to his protege, Ted Kord.

247
00:19:22,314 --> 00:19:25,848
But Kord quickly realized
the scarab was alien technology.

248
00:19:25,916 --> 00:19:29,274
Since he wasn't about to let
an alien device fuse to his spine,

249
00:19:29,321 --> 00:19:31,000
he locked the scarab away.

250
00:19:31,032 --> 00:19:33,715
But Garrett still inspired Ted
to become the second Blue Beetle,

251
00:19:33,757 --> 00:19:35,625
even with no superpowers.

252
00:19:35,692 --> 00:19:37,751
Ah, I hear those are optional.

253
00:19:37,846 --> 00:19:41,782
<i>Anyway, Ted suspected
the Light wanted the scarab back in play.</i>

254
00:19:41,876 --> 00:19:45,945
<i>He tried to stop them from stealing it,
and paid the ultimate price.</i>

255
00:19:45,973 --> 00:19:48,088
<i>That's where you came in.</i>

256
00:19:49,392 --> 00:19:52,319
Guess I wasn't exactly what
the Light or Reach had in mind.

257
00:19:52,387 --> 00:19:54,154
But why keep all this from me?

258
00:19:54,222 --> 00:19:56,556
Because it took months
for me to learn the ritual.

259
00:19:56,624 --> 00:19:59,993
And not to mention, configure
the ancient Bialyian incantations

260
00:20:00,030 --> 00:20:01,564
to work in concert
with my magic.

261
00:20:01,663 --> 00:20:03,464
And you couldn't risk
letting the Reach know

262
00:20:03,465 --> 00:20:05,733
the temple existed
until you were ready.

263
00:20:05,801 --> 00:20:08,869
You managed to keep
your mouth shut? You?

264
00:20:08,937 --> 00:20:13,406
Hey, making sure you stayed a hero was
the main reason I came back to the past.

265
00:20:13,474 --> 00:20:17,436
So I was motivated to take my mouth
off-mode. Don't you get used to it, now.

266
00:20:20,292 --> 00:20:23,571
Great news, Team.
Nightwing, out.

267
00:20:23,629 --> 00:20:25,586
What's great news?

268
00:20:25,653 --> 00:20:28,989
The Team freed Blue Beetle
and Green Beetle from Reach control.

269
00:20:29,057 --> 00:20:32,802
Terrific. You need me,
I'm watching TV.

270
00:20:35,530 --> 00:20:38,299
Um, is Connor around?

271
00:20:38,367 --> 00:20:42,103
He said something about
going out with Wendy Harris.

272
00:20:42,170 --> 00:20:45,038
Oh. Right...

273
00:20:54,116 --> 00:20:57,934
I realize my order to throw
the fight against the children

274
00:20:57,949 --> 00:21:01,981
was disappointing,
and you have my sympathies.

275
00:21:01,994 --> 00:21:04,521
But it was a necessary evil.

276
00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:10,398
Now the Light's plans for
the Reach, the League and the Team

277
00:21:10,466 --> 00:21:14,369
may proceed on schedule.

278
00:21:15,003 --> 00:21:18,003
