[Kal-El] Good morning, little guy.
You ready to make friends yet?
[orb warbling]
Okay.
No aggressive behaviors.
Focus is on the reward.
[warbling]
[Lara] Kal-El!
-[Kal-El yelps] -[laser fires]
My son, what on Rao were you doing?
Mother. I was trying to communicate with the sun eater.
Kal-El, why would you do that?
Well, he's the last of his kind.
If we could speak, I'm sure there's more we could learn from him.
Or at least let him know he's not alone.
[Lara] Oh, my son.
That kindness of yours.
[Brainiac] It is a weakness.
I'm sorry, Mother.
[Lois coughing]
What?
[yelps]
What are you doing here?
Who are you, trespasser?
I don't know.
I... I can't remember.
[opening music playing]
Lois!
Her mind has been trapped inside the Black Mercy,
just like Kal-El.
[hesitates] So what?
They're stuck in there?
How do we get them out?
No one but Brainiac can free them now.
The Black Mercy is his world.
Then we have to stop Brainiac in ours.
[Supergirl] You do not understand.
Now that Brainiac has Kal-El's body, he is unstoppable.
-This is hopeless. -[Jimmy] Hey.
I've done hopeless before, and we came out on top.
-Okay, I just need a signal. -[device beeping]
-[trills] -Birdwatchers.
I'm live above Metropolis, and I need your help again.
-An alien invader is on his way. -[loud thudding]
[metal clanking]
[trilling]
[Jimmy yelps]
No!
Get out of here!
[grunts]
[rumbling]
[tense music playing]
[Jimmy breathing heavily]
Are you all right, Jimmy?
[both gasping]
[Supergirl groans]
-[grunts] -Kara!
[Waller] James Olsen, Lois Lane.
As known accomplices of Superman
and traitors to the human race, you are under arrest.
General Waller, there is an alien invader on his way here to Earth.
Then we'll give Superman the same warm welcome we gave you.
No, it's not Superman. It's...
[Jor-El] Why are you here?
I don't know.
Who sent you?
I don't know!
Please, can you just tell me where I am?
That is the mind of human female Lois Lane.
That is not a memory of Kal-El's.
-It is her. -How? The Black Mercy was not designed
to house multiple minds.
I do not know.
We need to ascertain how she got in.
Then erase her.
We require more data.
I will find Kal-El and ensure he is occupied.
We cannot let this...
this glitch derail the simulation.
[power shuts down]
Wait. You can't just leave me here.
[breathing heavily]
[sighing] Oh.
-Who's there? -Please, don't be afraid.
I won't harm you.
I wasn't sure if you had eaten, so I brought this.
[Lois] Cake?
How do you know I like cake?
Did you poison it?
Is this some kind of alien trick?
No, no. It's cake.
I thought everybody likes cake.
Here.
[muffled] See?
It's just cake.
[Lois chuckles]
You aren't used to interrogations, are you?
[in normal voice] I'm not.
I mean, I'm not interrogating you,
but it's why I'm in the Hall of Science
and not a warrior.
I've always been... different.
Weak.
I don't know.
You seem fine to me. [chuckles]
I mean... [clears throat] ...not fine-fine.
[chuckles] I'm Kal-El.
I have no idea who I am.
But it's a pleasure to meet you. [gasps]
[uplifting music playing]
Clark!
-Oh, it's actually, Kal-El. -No, you're Clark Kent.
You are the reason I came here.
Brainiac trapped your mind in this machine.
[scoffs] Brainiac? Our computer system?
You've forgotten who you are.
And so did I. But it's coming back to me, okay?
You're Clark, and you're Superman--
[doors opening]
Get away from her, Kal-El.
She's dangerous.
Clark, you have to believe me.
Please, just remember!
-Wait, you... You're-- -Destabilization in progress.
Delete the invading mind.
Mortigi Kodon!
[Louis gasps]
[grunts]
No.
No. I'm not leaving without Clark!
I'm back where I started?
I'm back when I started?
What?
I am so sorry, Kara.
I... I thought we could help.
I just, I don't... I don't know what to do.
[tires screeching]
What?
[dramatic music playing]
What is going on here?
We are on a military mission under my authority.
Oh, we know, because one of my journalists
just livestreamed his entire arrest.
Tsk-tsk-tsk.
Arresting a journalist is a violation
of the Fourth Amendment.
-What the-- -The Wolf Pack rides again!
Steve? Uh, how?
What? Steve?
We're bustin' you outta here, Wolf cub.
[wolf howling]
[Steve] Us Flamebros have your back.
We saw your get arrested and said,
"Nah."
That's great!
But what's your plan to deal with Amanda Waller?
-Steve, out! -[tires screeching]
[wolf howling]
This was a distraction.
Get them!
[loud rumbling]
[menacing music playing]
as an alien in disguise.
My name is Clark Kent,
and we already had this conversation yesterday.
Today.
But your evil robot parents reset time.
Right, and my whole life here on Krypton?
Is a hateful lie!
Made up by my dad's computer?
See, you get it.
Now wake up, and let's go home.
Uh-huh. So let's say all of this is true.
-Which it is. -Why are you here?
Why would you come all the way from Earth
and... and risk your life to find me?
I, uh... Well...
-It's, um... Clark, I-- -[Jor-El] Kal-El!
I told you to keep away from the invader.
She's dangerous.
-Mother, Father, I-- -Clark, don't--
Go!
Now.
[doors clanking]
[Lara] I thought we erased her.
We tried, but that only reset our simulation
to the moment the glitch arrived.
The glitch has a name, you know.
Then we reset to before she entered the Black Mercy.
We can barely maintain the simulation as is.
We cannot afford destabilization.
Wait, You can't get rid of me, can you?
She's more annoying than Kal-El's memories indicate.
Oh, I can be so much worse.
And once I get to Clark again--
I know you guys told me to leave,
but I thought the alien might be hungry.
-So-- -Clark! This isn't real!
-That guy is not your dad-- -Mortigi Kodon!
Okay, I just have to get in that lab,
wake up, Clark, and we all go home.
The glitch has escaped.
Find her!
-[energetic music playing] -[Lois panting]
Hey, you're name is Clark and you're my boyfriend.
What?
Mortigi Kodon!
[grunts]
Okay, I'll just wait here outside the lab.
Mortigi Kodon!
[Lois] Clark!
-I... -[Jor-El] Mortigi Kodon!
[Lois] No.
Clark, please. You have to remember.
It's me.
It's... it's Lois Lane--
[Jor-El grunts]
[Lara] Where is the glitch?
[Jor-El] We have searched all day. We cannot find her.
[sighs] If she reaches Kal-El,
she will destroy the simulation.
The lab!
You have to remember, Clark, please.
This is not your home. You belong on Earth.
With Ma, and Pa, and Jimmy, and... me.
[doors clanking]
If I am this Clark, why is he so important to you?
Why are you doing all of this?
Because I...
[dramatic music playing]
I...
Where are they?
I came here because I'm desperately in love with you.
So please, Clark.
-Remember. -[Kal-El] Lois.
Your name is Lois.
Okay, okay.
Things look, uh, real bad, but we can turn this around.
We just need to come up with a plan.
Lois is gone. Brainiac has stolen Kal-El's body.
We have nothing.
We've got me and Steve and you.
I am no use to anyone.
I spent my whole life as Brainiac's puppet.
When I tried to stop him, he crushed me.
He threw me away.
I am not a warrior.
I am a failure.
Aren't you Superman's cousin?
'Cause that guy gets beat up, like, all the time.
That doesn't make you a failure.
It's just part of being a hero.
Right, Jimbo? Ay!
You think I am a hero?
I was born for war, created for destruction.
So was Superman.
But you get to decide what you want to be, no one else.
So what do you want, Kara?
I remember Earth and my life on Krypton,
but they're all jumbled.
I don't know what's real anymore.
I'm real, Clark.
-We are real. -But you're not.
Because the real Lois wouldn't come for me.
[Lois grunts]
I broke into S.T.A.R. Labs to find you.
I worked with Livewire to find you.
I stole a whole dang spaceship to find you.
So don't tell me I'm not real, Smallville.
Stole a spaceship? Lois, that's insane.
It is you.
You're really here.
-[Jor-El grunts] -[Lois] No!
[Jor-El] Enough.
I am to regain control.
[grunts]
[Lois grunts]
[grunting]
[Jor-El grunts]
[Lois gasps]
[Superbrainiac] People of Earth.
Reckoning is upon you.
Surrender, and I will make your world the jewel
of the Kryptonian Empire.
Resist...
and I burn your planet to ash.
What shall it be?
Light him up.
[dramatic music playing]
-[Wilson grunts] -[Atomic Skull grunts]
[Damage grunts]
[all grunting]
Ah! It is to be fire, then.
-[grunts] -[Supergirl grunts]
Daughter.
You survived to disappoint me once again.
Do you hope these people will think you a hero,
when you die defending them?
It does not matter what they think.
You force me to destroy worlds,
but I will fight for this one.
-[grunts] -[glass shattering]
Lex. You're up.
Bringing the Metallos online...
[whirring]
...and activating their new, Kryptonite power cores.
[dramatic music playing]
[grunts]
[Supergirl groans]
[groans]
[grunts]
[yells, grunts]
How did I do that?
-I'm only human. -[Kal-El] On Earth, sure.
But this is all happening in my mind.
And I don't think of you as only human, Lois.
You're the strongest person I know.
Clark, I am so sorry.
I was scared, so I pushed you away.
But love is not for cowards.
You're kind and sweet and strong
not because of your powers, but because of your heart.
I didn't name you Superman because of what you could do.
I called you that because it's who you are.
[triumphant music playing]
I love you, Clark Kent.
I will always love you, Lois Lane.
[Brainiac] You will never be free.
There is no escape, Kal-El.
[energetic music playing]
[both grunting]
[yelling]
-I told you it is useless to-- -[Lois grunting]
[grunts]
You really don't know anything about us, do you?
[Superman grunts]
You thought if you put me in a cage,
everyone else would just roll over.
You thought we'd just let you hurt our friends,
our family, our world?
Stop them!
You thought we were alone, just like you.
-But we have... -And will always have...
[both] ...each other!
[gasps]
Lois!
-Where is he? -[weapons firing]
No.
[Brainiac] Ahh!
For this insult,
for this defiance,
I will take everything from you, Kal-El.
And your Earth.
Incorporate Kryptonite Shielding.
[Waller] What's happening?
Why isn't the kryptonite working?
I... I don't know. Give me a second.
[Brainiac] Prime the Archer beam.
Full output.
[Archer beam whirring]
[people screaming]
[Brainiac] Fire!
[beam whooshing]
[Supergirl grunting]
[breathing heavily]
[Brainiac] Foolish to the end.
[Supergirl panting]
[Brainiac] Fire.
[beam trilling]
[grunts]
[uplifting music playing]
But... but you're--
I'm back.
It seems like a whole lot happened while I was gone.
You were right, Kal-El.
Father--
Brainiac...
He must be stopped.
Then let's go stop him.
[beeping]
[Lex grunting]
Luthor, what are you doing?
Bring them back down!
General Waller, it's not me.
They aren't responding to my commands.
They've been hacked.
[Supergirl groans]
[Brainiac] Do you see?
You cannot defy me.
[Superman groaning]
[Brainiac] You cannot defeat me.
I have turned your weapons against you.
I have felled your champion.
I am Krypton.
And I judge this planet to be...
unworthy.
[beam trilling]
Superman...
Where are you?
