Original subtitles

I wish I never brought you back from that damn island.

How strange.

You never cursed me while I was helping you

find fame and fortunate.

You ruined the lives of my colleagues and friends.

Did I?

Those pretty much sound like your choices.

Too late to grow a conscience now, don't you think?

I don't want this anymore.

But we have so much more to do.

You owe me.

You leave me alone!

Bruce, if you really want me to leave you alone,

put the diamond down.

You can't, can you?

Because you can't let go of power.

What if I could fix it all?

Fix it?

You've broken everything.

I feel you, Bruce. I feel your loneliness.

But you're not alone.

I am here for you.

You lost her once.

You let her go.

We can get her back.

- Mona? - Yes.

Her husband's the only thing

that stands between you and her.

Nothing else.

You don't know her.

I know once he's gone, Mona will be all yours.

Her heart, her body,

and her soul...

she'll be yours despite your fraud self.

Forever.

I won't kill anyone.

Not you, Bruce.

Me.

I'll do it.

Let me take control and you'll never be alone again.

All you have to do is drop the gun

and watch me do it.

Drop the gun. Let me take control.

That's all you have to do.

After all I've done for you,

you owe me.

They're sending us all home.

- Why? - Storm's rolling in.

We haven't got much time.

Hey, be careful out there.

- Okay, yeah, you too. - Okay.

- Okay. Yes, sir.

Okay, Mike, so we're not gonna be down

in the basement for a month, all right?

Didn't you say we should prepare for the worst?

I did, so go get the sleeping bags, upstairs closet, please.

Thank you.

Watch out. He's in a mood.

Rick's hearing was canceled.

That's okay. He'll be safe in jail.

Nowhere's safe, Pat.

And we can't just let Rick rot in a cell.

Right, we're gonna see what we can do

after the storm clears.

This storm isn't passing, and you know that.

And we all know who's causing it.

After what he did to Yolanda and Rick and Beth...

she saw him, Pat,

in what she thought was our house.

He's getting stronger.

So Beth and I decided we're not waiting around anymore.

Okay, well, I'm sorry, but what does that mean?

It means as soon as we find Eclipso,

we have to go after him

with whoever and whatever we have left.

Court, just please do me...

And since you don't know how the JSA stopped him last time,

we're gonna have to figure it out ourselves.

We are not prepared.

Pat, I love you,

but when have we ever been prepared enough

to make you happy?

I'm gonna go call Beth.

I'll let you know as soon as we find the center

of this storm.

We are gathered here today to lay to rest Rebecca McNider,

gone too soon.

The Lord bless you and watch over you.

Lord make his face shine upon you

and be gracious to you.

Lord look kindly on you and give you peace.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son,

and of the Holy Spirit, amen.

- Amen. - Amen.

You know if the Thunderbolt could help, I would ask.

Nobody can bring Rebecca back, Johnny.

How could someone do that to a child?

- Not someone, Sly. Something.

- What's it want? - Whatever it is,

we have to stop it.

- We will, Rex. We'll catch that monster.

Flash.

Pat, we're in public.

- Right, sorry. Jay, Jay.

- Hello, Stripesy. - Hi.

We know that it's called Eclipso.

Where does it come from?

Pat, let the members ask the questions.

- Right. - It comes from an island.

We believe it was brought back here

by an explorer named Bruce Gordon.

This is your fault, Charles!

- Myra, please. - No, you weren't there!

You didn't see what it did to our little girl!

Myra.

Myra.

- Liar, liar. You are a liar.

But, Mom, I got my flower dress on.

- She's gonna find out. You know she will.

Liar!

So let's go over what we know.

We know your goggles can see through his illusions.

That's one advantage we have over him.

Good.

We also know the Staff hurt Eclipso before.

The Staff may still be weak,

but if we can use it with your goggles somehow,

maybe there's something we can do.

Yolanda hasn't called me back either.

Dad.

Dad.

Dad?

Is the heat out or something?

Dad?

What do we do now?

We're gonna find this Bruce Gordon

and see what he knows.

Dr. McNider was my friend, too, Sylvester.

And, you know, I want to be a part of getting justice

for his daughter.

Look, I know I'm not on the team.

But please, Sylvester, this is different.

I know it is.

God, Pat. She was only ten.

We can't let this happen again.

- Is that... - The Shade.

- I'll get the others. - No.

If The Shade wanted to fight,

he wouldn't be staring us down in broad daylight.

I'll meet you back at the garage.

But, Sylvester, I thought that...

Go, and we'll talk later

about getting you more involved.

Okay.

Thank you, Brady Bob.

I'm here just off of Main Street in downtown.

And as you can see behind me, the...

Upwards of 40 miles an hour.

All the...

Closed.

Gone home.

Completely...

What happened?

Sylvester?

Pat, Pat, uh,

what we're facing, it's not...

human.

What is it?

The Shade called it a...

spiritual parasite.

Like an otherworldly creature.

Somehow, this Bruce Gordon found it.

And now it's possessed him.

I mean, this thing can make you see it

as anything it wants.

It can make your nightmares come true.

And he told me how we can stop it.

But why would The Shade help us?

I saw fear in his eyes

when he told me that he had faced it before.

I mean, this thing...

it murdered men, women,

children.

I mean, he called it...

real evil.

He said the only way to stop it is to kill the host.

Kill the host?

You're talking about killing another human?

When the host dies,

Eclipso will be forced back into the diamond.

And as long as we don't touch it,

as long as no one does,

Eclipso will be powerless inside.

Well, if this thing somehow possessed someone,

we got to exorcise it.

We have to save 'em.

That's the code the JSA lives by, right?

That's the code you live by.

Yes, of course.

You're right, Pat.

There's always a way.

- 72 degrees? Yeah, right.

- Cameron? - Hey.

- Hey, come in. Hey.

- I got caught in the storm. I didn't know where else to go.

- No, yeah, it's cool. - Came out of nowhere.

Yeah, seems like a normal, everyday storm to me.

Is Courtney here?

She's upstairs.

Where's your mom?

Come on!

Hello, Barbara.

We have a lot to catch up on, don't we?

Nice fire.

I told you, you can go up and see Courtney if you want.

I will.

Must be nice

to be part of a family like this.

Uh, yeah.

You and your dad are pretty close, huh?

Yeah, I was close with my dad, too.

You sure you're not cold?

Is it cold?

You know, I lost my mother when I was eight.

- How old are you? - 15.

So you got seven more years than I did.

Oh, wait, she's your stepmother, right?

So I guess her loss won't be that hard on you.

I mean, it won't be as bad

as when your real mother abandoned you, will it?

Who told you that?

A friend.

That same friend also told me about my father,

how you ran him over and left him for dead.

It was an accident.

I didn't mean... I didn't mean to kill him.

You didn't.

He's still here.

He's with Barbara right now.

And I'm here with you.

- You're dead, Jordan. You're not here.

This is Eclipso.

- Eclipso? No.

No, this storm is my doing. It's my rebirth.

It was all gonna be so wonderful, Barbara.

This isn't real.

I would have protected you and Courtney

from all of this other nonsense.

It's not real.

But you betrayed me.

You hurt me.

So now it's time I hurt you.

Court?

Courtney? Dad?

No one is coming to save you, Mike.

- Buddy! No!

No.

Everyone in this house is going to die.

You could have helped me save our country

from itself, Barbara.

Admit it. A part of you wanted to.

Like I said before, you're insane.

- Insane? No.

No, I was in love, Barbara.

For the first time since my wife died, I was in love.

Barbara, he's not real.

Your car, start it.

- I tried, I tried. It won't.

There's nothing wrong with it.

There's no escaping me, Barbara.

Damn it, Barbara.

Ignore this nightmare and start the bloody car.

I will haunt you and your family forever.

Now!

Go home.

I need... Emily?

Shade.

You killed my dad, so I get to kill your dad.

I mean, that's fair, right?

And you thought you were going to be some kind of hero?

But you're nothing.

Unwanted by the JSA,

like you were unwanted by your own mother.

Mike?

Mike, are you okay?

- Court, look out! - What is it?

Cameron's here, and he's freaking out.

- Mike, Mike! No one is here.

- Oh. I just saw him.

He had powers like his dad, and he killed Buddy.

Oh.

- Hey, Buddy. Hey. Hey.

- Buddy's okay. You're okay.

Where's Pat?

I don't know.

Pat! Pat!

Pat! Pat!

What are you guys doing down here?

There were four of us sitting around the table tonight,

but we needed an odd number, in case of a tie.

Tie for what?

Green Lantern and The Spectre couldn't stop it.

Dr. Fate, The Hawks... Eclipso beat them all,

and he vowed to kill our families too.

We're out of time.

So we're voting.

It comes down to it, we got to do what

The Shade said and take out the host.

Talking about killing a man?

If you do that, I mean,

it goes against everything that we stand for.

We?

Last time I checked, you were the mechanic.

We're the ones that are putting our lives on the line and have

to make decisions like this that we don't want to make.

You ain't a member of this team, Stripesy.

You're Sly's driver, so stay in your lane.

- That's enough, Ted. - Sorry.

I just call them like I see them.

Nobody wants to do this,

but we might have to

for Rebecca.

We came together to find justice, not vengeance.

Didn't we, Rex? Ted?

Sylvester, we're talking about victimizing a victim here.

I got a son, so I'm gonna do what I gotta.

Let's vote. I'm a yes.

I'm obviously a no.

I don't want to hurt anybody.

But if there's no other choice, if it comes down to it...

I'm gonna do what we have to to protect our families.

Yes.

- Pat? - He shouldn't get a vote.

- He does. Pat?

I vote no.

It's like Starman says. There's always a way.

That's two to two.

So it's down to Sylvester, right?

Then it's decided.

It's two for but three against.

My vote's a yes.

What?

Eclipso threatened my family, too.

I'll do whatever it takes to protect them.

I won't take part in this.

You won't have to, Jay.

Get the car ready.

No.

I voted no.

Right now.

It'll never come off.

And your children's blood will be on your hands next.

You had a choice, and you made it.

You damned yourselves.

Pat?

You okay?

No one's gonna hurt you.

No one. Hey.

All right?

You sure you're okay?

I am, thanks to you.

What did you see?

A lot.

- Bruce Gordon. - What?

Why?

What haven't you told me, Pat?

I've never told you how the JSA really stopped Eclipso.

Oh, come on. Come on.

What happened?

You were right.

JSA should never take a life.

But it's too late.

We need to get this to storage.

- Sylvester... - Drive.

- Wait a minute. - Damn it, drive, Pat.

It's over.

It's all over.

There was no last meeting.

There was no decision to break up.

Everyone just drifted away after that.

I kept coming around, though,

hoping to see if any of them showed up around the table.

Nobody did.

Not until the ISA reformed, but...

you know, that was a lot of years later.

And even when the JSA got back together,

well, they were never the same.

They were broken.

And that's why the ISA won in the end.

Killing Bruce Gordon...

when the JSA did that...

It wound up killing them.

We promised.

No more secrets.

- I know, Court. - You've been...

you've been lying to me for weeks, Pat,

lying while my friends were being hurt

and destroyed by Eclipso.

What's my mom going to say?

She knows.

- Is everyone okay in here? - Hey, Barb, you all right?

Why did you lie to me?
