Eliza Danvers : You're still out here?
Kara Danvers : Yep.
Eliza Danvers : I made coffee in case this turns into a teary all-nighter.
Kara Danvers : Oh, you don't have to stay up.
Eliza Danvers : Well, this is the "mom" fine print. When your child's in agony, you show up regardless the hour.
-
Kara Danvers : I figured it would be nice to get her away from everything for a couple days.
Eliza Danvers : This is gonna be hard no matter what, but at least here she can...
[sighs]
Eliza Danvers : lean into it. Better than letting her pretend she's fine.
Kara Danvers : [catches the hint] You're worried about me.
Eliza Danvers : I think I worry about you more than Alex. Losing Maggie is going to be excruciating, but at least Alex doesn't close herself off.
Kara Danvers : I'm not doing that.
Eliza Danvers : You have the most wide-open heart in the world for other people. But when you feel weak, you punish yourself for it. You've had an awful year.
Kara Danvers : And I'm feeling a lot better. I promise.
Eliza Danvers : You don't have to be better. You're allowed to be a mess.
Kara Danvers : Too many people depend on me.
Eliza Danvers : That is a great excuse.
Kara Danvers : I'm just accepting the fact that I'm not human. And if I'm gonna do the things I have to do, I have to walk away from... certain... vulnerabilities.
Eliza Danvers : You've thought a lot about this.
Kara Danvers : Yeah. It's been a long time coming. I'm happy about it.
[nods pensively]
Eliza Danvers : You don't seem happy.
-
Alex Danvers : What's the point of all this?
Kara Danvers : I dunno. We need to sleep. We always slept well here.
Alex Danvers : So we'll stay for, like, three days. Mom will cook tons of food, and I'll gain, like, five pounds, and then walk back into an empty apartment.
Kara Danvers : Do you wanna talk about it? It might help.
Alex Danvers : You don't get to do that.
Kara Danvers : What?
Alex Danvers : You don't get to shut down, what, for six months after Mon-El goes, and then now sit here and you tell me to talk.
Kara Danvers : It will get better.
Alex Danvers : Yeah? Are you better?
Kara Danvers : Okay. You are edging on mean drunk, and I only signed up for sad drunk.
Alex Danvers : Oh, that's right.
[snaps her fingers]
Alex Danvers : I forgot. It's whatever Kara says that goes. Right? I mean, screw everybody else. Kara knows best.
Kara Danvers : You know what? I'm sorry that I was trying to do something nice for you.
Alex Danvers : No, I'm sorry that I broke the imaginary rules for a weekend that I didn't ask for.
Kara Danvers : Then I'm not gonna try to help you anymore.
Alex Danvers : Good.
Kara Danvers : Great.
[lies down, turning her back on her sister in that same dismissive way that had been done to her]
-
Kara Danvers : So, J'onn says to head straight back to the DEO, and if we scratch his car, he'll put us in containment.
Alex Danvers : Well, you'd better let me drive, then.
Kara Danvers : Why? I'm a great driver.
Alex Danvers : You almost killed us twice coming up here.
Kara Danvers : That possum came from nowhere!
Alex Danvers : [holding out her hand] Keys. Come on.
Kara Danvers : [reluctantly handing the keys over] If you're so worried about my driving, why didn't you say anything yesterday?
Alex Danvers : Because yesterday, getting into an accident didn't seem like a big deal. Today, I would like to avoid it.
Kara Danvers : Progress.
-
Kara Danvers : You slept in.
Alex Danvers : Yeah.
Kara Danvers : Good. Remember this thing?
Alex Danvers : That was the best "thank you" gift we ever got for solving a case.
-
Kara Danvers : Kenny was one of the first people I lost on Earth. Doesn't get any easier.
Alex Danvers : Kenny Li.
Kara Danvers : Keeper of secrets.
Alex Danvers : You know, that's the first time I really understood what I had in you. What it could mean to have a sister. It's crazy to think that I ever thought that you were worst thing that could happen to me. I'd never get over it.
Kara Danvers : Well, I did hog the bathroom.
Alex Danvers : Yes.
[they snicker]
Alex Danvers : After Kenny, that's when I realized that you and I could get through anything together.
Kara Danvers : That was the first time I really became Kara Danvers.
Alex Danvers : It's a good thing, too. Got us through the next ten years.
Kara Danvers : Think I remember thinking I would never feel at home on Earth. I still don't, in a way. But I feel at home with you.
Alex Danvers : Always.
-
Alex Danvers : It was a good idea, coming here. I don't think I could have slept in any other bed last night without Maggie. Sorry I punished you for trying to help.
Kara Danvers : Oh, it was your turn.
Alex Danvers : I never want to hurt you.
Kara Danvers : I know. I am getting better. Sorry I haven't shown it. Maybe if I had, you'd have more hope right now.
Alex Danvers : You're here. Right now, that's all I really need.
