Quotes 

• Shifflet : But I must admit, it does look hopeless.

  J'onn J'onzz : Only if you believe it to be, is it so.

• J'onn J'onzz : There seems to be a recurring theme here.

  Shifflet : You can read these?

  J'onn J'onzz : You mean you can't?

  Shifflet : These chambers are ancient. No one knows who built them.

  J'onn J'onzz : These icons suggest that your world may have had a flourishing ecosystem at one time, much different from the barren desert conditions of today.

  Shifflet : Legend does say that Kalanor was once a paradise.

  J'onn J'onzz : This same tree seems to repeat throughout. Apparently, it holds some significance.

  Shifflet : The only image I recognize is the Flame of Py'tar. That tells me that this evil has been on Kalanor for centuries.

  Radocko : Ancient drawings by cavemen, that's all they are. Are we just going to sit here and talk or do something?

• Shifflet : It's a miracle.

  J'onn J'onzz : It's just the normal life force of your planet reasserting itself after centuries of entrapment.

  Hawkgirl : And you won't have to worry about Despero anymore.

  The Flash : Where is old Three Eyes?

  Green Lantern : He finally saw the light.

  The Flash : Well, okay, then. We've saved the day. Can we go home now?

  Katma Tui : There's still a lot that needs to be done to rebuild Kalanor. We could use your help.

  Green Lantern : [kissing her cheek]  Sorry, Kat. Duty calls.

• The Flash : [seeing J'onn possessed by the Py'tar]  Okay. We are officially spooked here.

  Py'tar : Hear me, o children of Kalanor. Behold, I am the Py'tar, the living soul of this planet. Despero is a great deceiver. He has misused my power for his own petty ends. I say unto thee the Py'tar is not a source of hatred, but a beacon of hope. In times gone by, Kalanor was a paradise. It can be again. But thou must reject the dark ways of Despero and step into the light. The choice is thine.

• J'onn J'onzz : Despero must have a weakness. We need to discover what it is and exploit it.

  The Flash : [Kilowog enters eating what looks like a piece of fruit]  Got any more of that?

  Kilowog : [he offers one; taking a bite, Flash spits it out]  It's not exactly Bob and Terry's.

  The Flash : No kidding. But with a hypercharged metabolism, I can't always be choosy.

• The Flash : Hey, what's Katma doing?

  J'onn J'onzz : Buying us time. We must go.

  The Flash : Say what?

  J'onn J'onzz : We have the carbon bomb. If we are captured, all hope is lost.

  Kilowog : J'onn's right, little poozer. We got a job to do.

• J'onn J'onzz : Kilowog, your rings and lantern batteries are all fed from a much larger power source, correct?

  Kilowog : That's right. The central power battery on Oa. Its energy is almost infinite.

  J'onn J'onzz : Despero is channeling a great of power himself. It stands to reason that he may have a similar energy supply and distribution system.

  Green Lantern : How about that flame of his?

  J'onn J'onzz : My thoughts exactly. Somehow, Despero draws power from it, then he channels it through his third eye.

  Hawkgirl : So if we take out the flame...

  Katma Tui : The Py'tar's comprised of pure nuclear plasma. You can't just blow it out like a candle.

  Kilowog : You can with a carbon bomb.

  The Flash : A what?

  J'onn J'onzz : Of course. Carbon can be used to arrest nuclear activity.

  Kilowog : And I can build one in a few hours.

  The Flash : Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Kilowog, the man of a thousand talents.

• The Flash : What are we waiting for?

  J'onn J'onzz : The Py'tar. It's a sentient being.

  The Flash : A what?

  J'onn J'onzz : It's alive. In pain. It wants to make contact.
