Whoo!

Mmm.

Oops.

- Hi, Mom.
Who changed the locks?

You know,
it's true what they say.

Diamonds are a girl's
best friend.

No running in the house.

Jennie, here's a little
something for the bus.

I'm sorry you have to go,
but you know how this works.

Other kids need a home,
and you're no kid anymore.

I understand, Mrs. Ordway.

This was left for you
by child services for today.

Happy birthday, Jennie.

- Is this about my brother?
- I have no idea.

Okay.

Thank you very much.

A little advice
for out there in the world.

Don't try so hard to be perfect.

You don't have to be
for people to like you.

And it's a little annoying.

Todd.

Dad's ring.

Whoa!

- Hey, stop it!
Stop!

The fight is over!

Go to your crate.

I'm very sorry for the damage.

I had no intention of fighting
anyone coming here.

Things got out of hand.

Looks like it.

I mean, look what you did,
Court.

Me?

She broke into the house, Pat,

and was trying to steal
the green lantern.

I wasn't stealing anything.

This belonged to my father.

Your father?

His name was Alan Scott.

Does that name mean something
to you?

Yeah, it's the Green Lantern.

His ring led me here.

My name is Jennie.
Who are you?

I'm Pat Dugan.

You're Stripesy?

You're a legend.

- I am?
- He is?

You built the Star-Rocket Racer.

You're a mechanical genius.

It's an absolute honor
to meet you, Mr. Dugan.

And you have Starman's staff,
so you must be...

Not Starman's daughter.

Stripesy's?

Stepdaughter.

Pat taught you.

Well, yeah, kinda.

I mean...

Can you show me
how to use the ring?

Please, Mr. Dugan?

Oh, hi, there.

Aww, aren't you cute?

And slobbery.

- All right.
Here you go.

I meant what I said,
Ms. Whitmore.

I'm more than okay on the sofa.

Oh, it's Barbara,
and Courtney offered.

Only after you asked her to.

It's fine.

Sleep well, Jennie, okay?

Have a good night.

Go!

Hey.

I thought you might need that.

Thanks.

Pat, how do you know
she's really

Green Lantern's daughter?

Well, um...

the JSA didn't talk about their
kids a lot, to protect them,

but I know that they had them.

And that ring,
it only worked for Alan.

The cosmic staff
only worked for Starman,

and now it works for me.

What if she's not
who she says she is?

What if she's, like,
a spy or something?

- A spy?
- Yeah, for one of the JSA's

old enemies,
like, Baron Von Blitzkrieg.

- Okay.
There's no "Von," all right?

It's just Baron Blitzkrieg.
And he died in the war.

Okay, whoever, then.

Listen, Court, you're looking
for villains everywhere.

And I get it.
Being Stargirl, it's...

Everything.

This life that you're pursuing,

it's more about helping people

than it is fighting
the bad guys.

And that's what you're good at.

Yolanda, Rick, Beth,

you gave them a shot
when nobody else would.

So how about giving
this kid a chance?

- I can't thank you enough.
- Yeah, neither have I.

- Can someone pass me the milk?
I'm really thirsty.

- Some syrup?
- Yeah, pass the syrup.

- Please?
Does anyone even hear me?

Morning.

- Milk?
- Mm-mm-mm.

Wow, really?

Morning, Courtney.

- What's all of this?
- Breakfast.

- Jennie made it.
- Gotta try these pancakes.

I thought Pat's were unbeatable,

but we sure got
a contender here.

- Oh, Pat's are very beatable.
- This is like a restaurant.

- I'm glad you like it.
- Mmm!

I loved cooking for everyone
in the group home I grew up in.

We had pancake breakfast
every Sunday.

Wow, that sounds like fun.

So you fixed the table.

Not me.

- Is this your seat?
I'm sorry, I can move...

- I'm not hungry.
So, um, what's the plan today?

- Well, finish breakfast.
That's gonna take a while.

Then take Jennie down
to the garage,

see if we can get
the lantern working.

- Great, I'll come with you.
- Nope, you've got school.

Summer school.

- Yolanda?
Well, what are you doing here?

- I thought you got straight A's.
- I did.

My parents enrolled me
this morning

to "keep me out of trouble."

- Wow, wow.
Uh, that's terrible.

Yeah, really, really unfair.

Good morning, Blue Valley High.

I am Mr. Deisinger, for anyone
who hasn't taken my art class,

which is everyone.

Since it's summer,
you can all call me Paul.

Okay, who have we got here?

Isaac Bowin?

- Here.
- What was that?

Here!

- Josh Carillo.
- Here.

Matz Carillo.

Hey.

So who's this green llama girl?

It's Green Lantern.

And Pat actually thinks
she's his daughter.

Well, why shouldn't he?

Because there's a history
of people in this town

not being who they say they are.

So no Rick Harris?

I don't see Rick.

Bueller?

Bueller?

Hey.

I've been trying you
all morning.

Where are you?

- Out.
What's up?

There's a new superhero in town.

What?

Whoa!

Whoo!

Well, what do you think, Dugan?

Well, I think it's great, Zeek.

The flame's still a little weak,

but I'll have that fixed
in a jiffy.

See you tomorrow, Dugan.

Miss.

So where do we start,
Mr. Dugan?

Well, why don't we start
at the beginning?

So where'd you get the ring?

It was left for me by my dad.

It started glowing,

pulling at me.

The ring worked
that entire time?

Why wouldn't it?

Well, just according
to what I know,

Alan had to recharge the ring
once a day using the lantern,

but, you know,
maybe I'm remembering wrong.

Well, let's see if we can
take a look inside,

learn something.

What just happened?

Okay, the way it was,

the power reacted
to your father's emotions,

so you seem like
you're feeling anxious.

Maybe you made
the lantern anxious too.

What does the ring actually do?

Well, for one thing,

it can create anything
that you will it to.

How would I even do that?

Just think of something,
picture it in your head.

Hey, just...
just take your time, okay?

There's no rush.

Just imagine an object,
all right?

Just whatever
comes into your mind.

There we go!

Hey, you did it!

She went crazy meeting Pat,
like, she was his biggest fan.

Well, sure,
that's a little weird,

but what makes you
so suspicious?

She was super polite.

She fixed the table.
She made pancakes.

She made pancakes?

This girl shows up,

breaks into my house,
takes the lantern, blasts me,

and suddenly
she's best friends with Pat,

saying she's
a superhero's daughter

and we're just supposed
to believe it all

without question, you know?

These are actually really good.

They are really good.

You'll never escape her.

Hello?

- Barbara Whitmore?
- Yes.

I won't take
but a moment's time, promise.

And you are?

Richard Swift, at your service.

How may I help you,
Mr. Swift?

Well, as my card says,

I deal in things both old

and curious, as a collector.

And one of my many passions
is magic.

Stage magic, that is.

It's come to my attention
that the late William Zarick

had a noteworthy collection
of magical stage props

and sundries from the past
now held in trust

by the same American Dream.

- Williams Zarick?
- A councilman in Blue Valley,

if I'm not mistaken,

but a well-known... collector.

Did you know Mr. Zarick?

- Merely by reputation.
- Mm.

- Barbara...
- Mm.

I'm going to cut to the chase.

If the American Dream were
to sell me Zarick's collection,

I'd probably pay
a ridiculously high sum for it.

Well, let me see where
the collection is stored

and if the committee
wants to sell it,

and I'll get back to you.

Excellent.

There's no contact info,

which is strange

for a business card,
if you don't mind me saying.

I'll be in touch with you,

but while I'm here,

I may as well explore
all that is Blue Valley.

By chance, where might I find
a decent cup of tea?

You could try Richie's.

It's just right down the street.

Richie's.

Sounds delightful.

I'll be in touch.

That is incredible.

Do you guys see that?

Oh, yeah.

Whoa.

Oh, hi, Courtney.

What's going on?

You must be Yolanda, right?

Or I can call you Wildcat.

Rick and Beth told me
all about you.

You've got a heart of a fighter.

So inspiring.

I bet Ted Grant
would feel the same too.

I'm Jennie.

Yolanda is fine.

So, uh, you told her
about the team?

Why?

Because Jennie's
a legacy, Court.

A real one, like Rick.

So is that why you're here?

Because you found out
about the new JSA?

- Hey, Court...
- No, Pat!

I wouldn't be so skeptical
if she would have knocked

on our door last night,
but she broke in.

Because I didn't know
who stole my father's lantern.

Maybe I should just go.

- Jennie!
Jennie, wait!

That was not cool, Court.

You almost had
your old life back.

You want to get back
to who you were before,

don't you?

Before the abduction.

If you want it all back,

you'll have to kill her.

Kill your stepdaughter.

Kill Cindy Burman.

- So you're from Milwaukee?
- Well, I grew up there.

Quite a show down there.

Sorry.

I'm not the one
you need to apologize to.

The thing is,
I don't get it, Court.

I mean, your greatest superpower

is seeing the good
in other people,

but you can't seem
to see it in Jennie.

Can't see it?

Pat, how can I not see
the good in Jennie?

Everyone sees it.
I mean, she's perfect.

And...

and she's a superhero's
daughter, for real.

I feel like such
a fraud around her.

She's everything I should be.

- No.
She's everything you were.

Think about it.

She's just trying to learn
more about a father

she never really knew,
that's all.

That's why she's here.

Remember how that felt?

- Pretty lonely.
- Yeah.

Pretty lonely.

Hey, Barb.
What's up?

I'll check it out.

What is it?

I don't know, hopefully nothing.

Just talk to Jennie.
I'll be back.

I have my goggles,

and Yolanda
can cut through anything.

- Well, that's not the only...
- And Rick has, like,

amazing super strength.

- A few other stuff.
- Yeah.

Oh.

I'm sorry
for how I spoke to you.

- I have the lantern.
And now that I do, I should go.

No, Jennie, wait.

Look, none of this
is your problem.

It's mine.

I spent months convinced
I was Starman's daughter.

And I was so messed up
when I found out I wasn't.

I thought I was everything
that you actually are,

but clearly, I'm not.

Your power is like nothing any
of us have ever seen before.

You're all anyone could ever
want in a member of the JSA.

You're the real deal, Jennie.

You've got everything.

Stop saying I have everything!

I have nothing.

This ring, it's supposed to do
whatever you ask it to,

anything at all.

And all I wanted
was to find my brother.

Your brother?

I thought this ring
would lead me to him,

not to this stupid lantern!

Um, Jennie,
what did you just do?

All we got by way of tea
is orange pekoe.

We got coffee.

And while I assume
it's not the bizarre brew

derived from monkey droppings,
I'm sure it tastes no better.

Very well.
Orange pekoe it is.

God, help me.

- Oh, gosh.
Sorry about that.

Now, I don't think I've seen
you around here before, have I?

Well, you'd be the one to know.

- Pardon me.
Pat Dugan, mechanic.

I got a garage down the way.
The Pit Stop.

- Catchy name.
- Yeah, yeah.

- Oh, no, please do.
Sit down.

Appreciate it.

I didn't catch your name.

Richard Swift, antiques.

Watch looks like a nice old one.

See, my love's vintage cars...

antiques of the road,
you might say.

Got a '56 Roadmaster.

That's kind
of my number one car.

Actually, noticed a '65 Jaguar
out on the curb.

It's a real beauty.

It's a '67.

'67, huh?

Run, run, run!

Hurry!
Go, go!

- I just remembered something.
I'm... I'm double parked,

but it sure was nice
to meet you, Mr. Swift.

And you.

It sounds like
it's gonna explode!

It looks like it.

I can try and crush it.

What if that makes it
definitely explode?

- What's going on?
- Pat, it's the lantern, it's...

What happened?

We didn't know where else
to take it,

away from people, we thought.

This is all my fault!

Emotions, Jennie, remember?

That's what affects your power.

Jennie is the lantern.

That's why the ring works
when you put it on,

because you're charging it.

You can absorb the energy
before it explodes.

I can try.

You all need to leave.
If this doesn't work, it...

Go!

I'm not going anywhere, Jennie.

You can do this.

- I think it's working.
Yeah.

Yeah, I think I got it.

She saved us.

Whoa.

My gosh.

Hey, guys.
I guess I can fly now.

- Good morning.
- Hi.

Uh, is Jennie awake?

She was gone when I woke up.

Pat?

If you're worried
I'm here to dig through

old files again, don't be.

I'm done with that.

- What are you talking about?
- Jennie.

She made me realize
what was really important:

my friends, my family,

Stripesy.

I should have treated you
more like Jennie did

when we first moved here.

So,
it's Courtney Whitmore first,

daughter, sister, friend,

and if a villain comes up,

then it'll be Stargirl.

Right, right.

It's actually funny
you should mention that,

'cause, uh, well...

there is this villain from
the old days called The Shade.

He's bad news.

And he's the last member
of the Injustice Society

that's unaccounted for.

And I think he's in Blue Valley.

I'll get my staff!

Okay, yeah.

Mom!

Mom!
I'm hungry again.

Here I am...

sweetie.

- Don't.
Mom, don't.

Please.
Please.

Sinful human.

So easily corrupted
and consumed.

- Mmm.
Delicious.

Let me go!

Your stepmother
was desperate to escape.

She was trying to kill you.

I had to take control
to protect you.

I can protect myself.

What did you do to her?

I fed off her hatred,

her desperation,
her corrupt soul.

I'm in control, me!

My body is mine!

You do that again,

and I'll put you back
in the box, you got it?

- Of course, Cynthia.
Of course.

I am sorry.

You are in control.

You.

I'm only here to serve.

I didn't want her dead.

Greg, move your head.
