Quotes
-
Virgil Hawkins : I don't know why they chose me, but I know they wanted to break me.
Dinah Lance : Why do you say that?
Virgil Hawkins : The tests. They started out small, little static shocks, but they kept upping the juice. Till it felt like I was being eaten by lightning. Still, I was one of the lucky ones. The alien creepazoids didn't seem to like the results they got from some of the other kids. Kids I never saw again.

Dinah Lance : Your scarab. We all had assumed. It was an invention of the previous Blue Beetle, but now it seems clear the reach created it.
Blue Beetle : [Nervous] Uh, yeah, that's clear.
Scarab : There is no reason to believe the Impulse's predictions. Perpetuating concern would be a strategic error, putting us at risk of persecution or worse.
Blue Beetle : Yeah. I mean, it's very clear. The reach tried to use my scarab to control me, but it wouldn't work for them. Their scientist said the only way to reboot it... was to kill me.
Dinah Lance : So the reach created it, but they can't control it. Jaime, that may make you our best weapon against them.
-
Black Canary : Beetle?
Blue Beetle : I'm sorry. I've been hiding something, but I can't... I just can't.
Impulse : Uh, blue, blue, blue. What happened to keep quiet?
Scarab : Stop, Jaime Reyes. This is a tactical error.
Blue Beetle : No, time for the truth. Impulse says that some time in the future I betray earth and bring on a Reach apocalypse. That's not a future I can live with. So whatever it takes, get this Scarab off me.

Black Canary : The Reach used our own secrets against us, beat us without firing a shot, even offered to take Despero off our hands. And I couldn't come up with a reason to say no. Hope you have some good news.
Captain Atom : Some answers, at least. With the obvious exception of Blue Beetle, the reach abductees are of two types Those with a known superpower. And those with the potential to develop one.
