1
00:00:23,189 --> 00:00:25,483
I was young,
just 28, on the road
with my act.
2
00:00:27,402 --> 00:00:29,195
For the past few years,
I'd been entertaining
audiences
3
00:00:29,279 --> 00:00:33,366
with my astonishing illusions
and wondrous wizardry.
4
00:00:33,450 --> 00:00:36,202
But now,
I had a wife, Sindella,
5
00:00:36,286 --> 00:00:40,623
and our 2-year-old daughter,
Zatanna, waiting for me
back home.
6
00:00:43,668 --> 00:00:45,628
My act was a success.
7
00:00:45,712 --> 00:00:48,006
My stage illusions
were renowned,
8
00:00:48,089 --> 00:00:50,633
thanks to a touch
of real magic.
9
00:00:50,717 --> 00:00:53,052
My audiences
were always dazzled.
10
00:00:54,512 --> 00:00:57,098
But one night,
something went wrong.
11
00:00:57,182 --> 00:01:00,185
A curtain caught fire.
The fire spread quickly.
12
00:01:00,268 --> 00:01:02,187
The audience was in danger.
13
00:01:02,270 --> 00:01:03,980
Without a second thought...
14
00:01:06,941 --> 00:01:10,487
...I used my magic
to put out the flames.
15
00:01:10,570 --> 00:01:13,323
Uh... Presto!
16
00:01:13,406 --> 00:01:16,993
-The audience thought
it was all part of the act.
17
00:01:17,076 --> 00:01:18,828
My grand finale.
18
00:01:19,704 --> 00:01:21,456
But for me,
19
00:01:21,539 --> 00:01:23,333
it was a new beginning.
20
00:02:02,747 --> 00:02:03,790
Teekl!
21
00:02:20,807 --> 00:02:24,644
Mother of Goat!
Diamond-guy killed Teekl.
22
00:02:24,727 --> 00:02:29,440
Causing Klarion
to return to his true form
as a Chaos Lord.
23
00:02:29,524 --> 00:02:33,695
A form he could not maintain
on the Earthly plane.
24
00:02:33,778 --> 00:02:37,866
Now, with that lovely bit
of nastiness out of the way,
25
00:02:37,949 --> 00:02:40,827
it's time to have some fun.
26
00:02:40,910 --> 00:02:43,830
Let's start
with this eyesore.
27
00:03:03,349 --> 00:03:04,267
Whee!
28
00:03:20,909 --> 00:03:22,785
That was entertaining.
29
00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:25,204
Lord of Chaos,
30
00:03:26,539 --> 00:03:29,459
you dare meddle
with the balance of...
31
00:03:35,048 --> 00:03:37,550
Oh, well done, Flaw.
32
00:03:37,634 --> 00:03:40,136
I do believe
you spared us a lecture.
33
00:03:53,107 --> 00:03:55,318
Damn it. Local Ley lines
have been disrupted.
34
00:04:04,869 --> 00:04:05,745
Power of Zeus!
35
00:04:08,581 --> 00:04:11,709
I simply cannot understand
how Klarion allowed
36
00:04:11,793 --> 00:04:14,921
such pathetic creatures
to thwart Chaos' will.
37
00:04:16,005 --> 00:04:18,967
Hmm. Time to unleash
the chaos.
38
00:04:25,974 --> 00:04:27,392
I got them.
39
00:04:27,475 --> 00:04:29,686
Ah! I'm okay.
40
00:04:29,769 --> 00:04:30,687
Dad.
41
00:04:36,943 --> 00:04:40,530
Space Trek 3016,
Episode 516,
42
00:04:40,613 --> 00:04:43,032
scene 16, take 16...
43
00:04:43,783 --> 00:04:45,618
Action!
44
00:04:45,702 --> 00:04:47,954
Captain, we're surrounded.
Shields are failing.
45
00:04:48,037 --> 00:04:49,789
There's only one way
to survive this.
46
00:04:49,872 --> 00:04:51,082
Cut!
47
00:04:51,165 --> 00:04:53,084
Okay. Great stuff, people.
Really great.
48
00:04:53,167 --> 00:04:55,586
We're just gonna
run it one more time.
49
00:04:55,670 --> 00:04:56,754
For coverage.
50
00:04:58,298 --> 00:04:59,590
Gar, buddy,
51
00:04:59,674 --> 00:05:03,219
this is supposed to be
life or death for Tork.
52
00:05:03,302 --> 00:05:04,637
And at nearly 3:00
in the morning,
53
00:05:04,721 --> 00:05:06,055
with everyone on overtime,
54
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:07,932
it's almost
life and death
for me.
55
00:05:08,016 --> 00:05:11,936
So can you please
just give it more...
56
00:05:12,854 --> 00:05:14,480
More.
57
00:05:14,564 --> 00:05:16,399
Sure. J.A. Sure.
58
00:05:16,482 --> 00:05:19,110
More "more" coming right up.
59
00:05:21,988 --> 00:05:25,074
Space Trek 3016,
episode 516,
60
00:05:25,158 --> 00:05:29,203
scene 16, take 17...
61
00:05:29,287 --> 00:05:30,371
Action!
62
00:05:34,834 --> 00:05:36,252
- Line.
Cut!
63
00:05:41,549 --> 00:05:43,259
Dang it!
64
00:05:43,342 --> 00:05:46,095
Now I'm just a flaming diamond
careening through
time and space.
65
00:05:46,179 --> 00:05:50,975
I hate to admit it,
but I need a hero.
66
00:05:57,315 --> 00:05:58,441
Good morning, Charlie.
67
00:05:58,524 --> 00:05:59,776
Morning, Penny.
68
00:05:59,859 --> 00:06:02,945
Okay, kids. Next stop, school.
69
00:06:03,029 --> 00:06:04,947
- Uh-uh-uh!
70
00:06:05,031 --> 00:06:07,992
No fussing
and frowning allowed
on old Charlie's bus.
71
00:06:08,076 --> 00:06:10,328
Only nice big smiles.
72
00:06:44,612 --> 00:06:45,571
I had that.
73
00:06:45,655 --> 00:06:47,490
I didn't want to
take the chance.
74
00:06:47,573 --> 00:06:50,159
As it is, your landing
could have destabilized
the entire bridge.
75
00:06:50,243 --> 00:06:52,286
- It didn't.
But it could have.
76
00:06:52,370 --> 00:06:54,205
- We don't yet know
the limits of your powers.
77
00:06:54,288 --> 00:06:57,250
Huh! Since when does
Superman have a sidekick?
78
00:06:57,333 --> 00:07:00,419
- Sorry, Super... boy.
Duty calls.
79
00:07:06,926 --> 00:07:11,347
Dang it, too late.
Gotta find another hero.
80
00:07:11,430 --> 00:07:15,726
But first,
I need an anchor
to this mortal plane.
81
00:07:15,810 --> 00:07:18,271
This motorcycle will do.
82
00:07:26,237 --> 00:07:28,030
I'm taking over
your dumb skateboard, mortal.
83
00:07:28,781 --> 00:07:30,158
Uh, it's a bus.
84
00:07:30,241 --> 00:07:32,535
Bus. Bus.
You knew I meant...
85
00:07:32,618 --> 00:07:35,788
Hey, you remind me of somebody.
86
00:07:39,750 --> 00:07:42,295
After saving
the audience from the fire,
87
00:07:42,378 --> 00:07:47,717
I was moved to do more
with my abilities
than simply entertain.
88
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:52,388
Lacking a clear
direction forward
drove me to distraction.
89
00:07:52,471 --> 00:07:53,639
And then...
90
00:07:55,099 --> 00:07:58,436
...there he was,
the Superman.
91
00:07:58,519 --> 00:08:01,772
I had, of course,
heard of the Man of Steel,
92
00:08:01,856 --> 00:08:05,735
but I had not yet seen him
through my daughter's eyes.
93
00:08:08,779 --> 00:08:10,740
Superman astonished the world
94
00:08:10,823 --> 00:08:15,620
with wondrous feats of flight
and strength and courage.
95
00:08:15,703 --> 00:08:18,080
But behind his heroic acts,
96
00:08:18,164 --> 00:08:21,250
I saw an alien
from another world,
97
00:08:21,334 --> 00:08:23,252
an immigrant like me,
98
00:08:23,336 --> 00:08:26,631
fighting to keep
his adopted planet safe.
99
00:08:26,714 --> 00:08:29,926
Could I not do as much
for my adopted country?
100
00:08:31,052 --> 00:08:33,221
I pondered this question.
101
00:08:33,304 --> 00:08:37,892
I prayed for guidance
until I knew
what I needed to do.
102
00:08:37,975 --> 00:08:42,230
Sindella was nervous for me,
but understood.
103
00:08:42,313 --> 00:08:44,607
-And so, inspired by...
104
00:08:44,690 --> 00:08:46,525
-...Superman and my daughter...
105
00:08:48,444 --> 00:08:49,737
...it began.
106
00:08:49,820 --> 00:08:51,864
Between performances
and family time,
107
00:08:51,948 --> 00:08:55,910
I used my gifts
to protect and serve society.
108
00:08:55,993 --> 00:08:59,664
Still, I wished to do more.
109
00:09:00,706 --> 00:09:03,042
And just like magic...
110
00:09:06,128 --> 00:09:08,923
Dad? Nabu? Anybody?
111
00:09:10,049 --> 00:09:11,133
Oui.
112
00:09:11,217 --> 00:09:14,887
Your father is well enough.
113
00:09:19,433 --> 00:09:22,144
Now do you believe
that Child is a threat?
114
00:09:22,228 --> 00:09:23,396
We do.
115
00:09:23,479 --> 00:09:24,897
And that you need
our help to fight her?
116
00:09:25,690 --> 00:09:27,608
Possibly.
117
00:09:27,692 --> 00:09:28,859
What the hell was that?
118
00:09:28,943 --> 00:09:30,861
Stealing our power
without asking.
119
00:09:30,945 --> 00:09:32,321
There wasn't time to ask.
120
00:09:32,405 --> 00:09:34,699
The kid had just demolished
the Tower of Fate.
121
00:09:34,782 --> 00:09:38,661
I was the only one conscious
to even try to stop her
from doing it again in...
122
00:09:38,744 --> 00:09:41,956
I don't know,
New York or El Paso.
123
00:09:42,039 --> 00:09:44,208
Look, I'm sorry.
I am.
124
00:09:44,292 --> 00:09:46,127
But I had to
give it a shot.
125
00:09:48,087 --> 00:09:49,797
- All right.
- Yeah, I guess.
126
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,509
But please
do not do that again
without asking first.
127
00:10:05,062 --> 00:10:06,188
Hmm.
128
00:10:06,272 --> 00:10:09,317
The hunt for Child
will now commence.
129
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,695
Can you call on
the Lords of Order,
ask for a power boost?
130
00:10:12,778 --> 00:10:14,905
That is not their way.
131
00:10:14,989 --> 00:10:17,283
Nor will it be necessary.
132
00:10:34,133 --> 00:10:38,804
Listen, bubala,
you're giving me fits, here.
133
00:10:38,888 --> 00:10:41,891
Last season, it was
all that prima donna crap,
134
00:10:41,974 --> 00:10:43,893
feuding with
the not-to-be-missed Granny,
135
00:10:43,976 --> 00:10:47,063
outsiders missions
making you late,
et cetera, et cetera.
136
00:10:47,146 --> 00:10:51,192
But at least you were sharp,
in the moment.
137
00:10:51,275 --> 00:10:53,736
This year, I can't even
get you to focus.
138
00:10:53,819 --> 00:10:56,405
You're, like,
a million miles away.
139
00:10:56,489 --> 00:10:59,784
More like 140 million.
140
00:11:00,368 --> 00:11:01,869
Uh, okay.
141
00:11:01,952 --> 00:11:07,208
Look, I know your buddy
Superboy passed.
142
00:11:07,291 --> 00:11:09,752
Do you need some help dealing?
143
00:11:09,835 --> 00:11:11,420
The studio has resources.
144
00:11:11,504 --> 00:11:12,880
No, man, I'm fine.
145
00:11:12,963 --> 00:11:16,092
Just...
I'm tired.
146
00:11:16,175 --> 00:11:19,595
So maybe you need a rest,
you know, some downtime, huh?
147
00:11:19,678 --> 00:11:23,265
Yeah, right.
I thought everyone's jobs
depended on me.
148
00:11:25,142 --> 00:11:28,104
We've been building up
Harvey's Lieutenant Der'Chow
character.
149
00:11:28,187 --> 00:11:30,940
He's become
a real fan favorite, see?
150
00:11:31,023 --> 00:11:34,276
The suits think
he can carry the load...
151
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:38,114
You know, until you're rested
and ready to return.
152
00:11:38,197 --> 00:11:40,533
Just think about it.
153
00:11:41,325 --> 00:11:42,827
We love you, kid.
154
00:11:42,910 --> 00:11:46,038
I just want
what's best for the show.
155
00:11:46,122 --> 00:11:47,873
And you, of course.
156
00:11:51,794 --> 00:11:54,880
Kent Nelson
gave me direction, focus.
157
00:11:54,964 --> 00:11:59,927
Over the next few years,
the work dedicated
to my secret calling
158
00:12:00,010 --> 00:12:02,012
increased exponentially.
159
00:12:02,096 --> 00:12:06,642
But between
my public stage career
and my secret life as a hero,
160
00:12:06,725 --> 00:12:09,728
I spent less and less time
at home.
161
00:12:09,812 --> 00:12:14,233
Kent helped out,
practically becoming
a member of the family,
162
00:12:14,316 --> 00:12:16,777
watching over them
when I could not.
163
00:12:16,861 --> 00:12:20,990
Still, I hated being away
from Sindella and Zatanna.
164
00:12:21,949 --> 00:12:24,493
Once again, I prayed on it
165
00:12:24,577 --> 00:12:27,997
and came to believe
my absence from my family
166
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,209
was a necessary sacrifice
for the greater good.
167
00:12:32,293 --> 00:12:39,508
But God, the universe
or fate had other ideas.
168
00:12:39,592 --> 00:12:42,219
It was not an enemy
that undid me.
169
00:12:44,305 --> 00:12:46,682
It was cancer.
170
00:12:46,765 --> 00:12:51,395
I tried to be there
for Sindella, for Zatanna,
171
00:12:51,479 --> 00:12:54,523
but still I had to perform
to pay medical bills,
172
00:12:54,607 --> 00:12:57,693
had to fight
to protect the world.
173
00:12:57,776 --> 00:13:00,738
Then, in some damned hotel
174
00:13:00,821 --> 00:13:03,032
-in some damned city...
175
00:13:04,575 --> 00:13:07,536
...there came another
knock on the door.
176
00:13:16,378 --> 00:13:18,297
Holy moly!
177
00:13:23,969 --> 00:13:27,223
Didn't know
they had active volcanoes
in Sydney.
178
00:13:27,306 --> 00:13:28,974
They do not.
179
00:13:29,058 --> 00:13:30,976
Anyone tell the volcano?
180
00:13:31,060 --> 00:13:32,186
We are too late.
181
00:13:33,479 --> 00:13:35,981
Child has come and gone,
182
00:13:36,065 --> 00:13:40,653
and this land
is forever scarred
by her mark of Chaos.
183
00:13:40,736 --> 00:13:42,696
The Pillar of Fire.
184
00:13:43,447 --> 00:13:44,573
We must go.
185
00:13:44,657 --> 00:13:45,908
But we have to help
the people here.
186
00:13:45,991 --> 00:13:48,744
We have to save
the world.
187
00:13:48,827 --> 00:13:50,788
Fate is correct.
188
00:13:50,871 --> 00:13:52,456
I have summoned the League,
189
00:13:52,540 --> 00:13:56,001
the outsiders,
and every mystic champion
I could recruit.
190
00:13:56,085 --> 00:13:58,087
Sending heroes
to each new crisis
191
00:13:58,170 --> 00:14:01,173
as quickly as Madame Xanadu
predicts them.
192
00:14:01,257 --> 00:14:03,926
But our efforts
will be for naught
193
00:14:05,678 --> 00:14:08,681
unless all of you
stop Child herself.
194
00:14:12,017 --> 00:14:15,312
It pains me
to agree with Nabu,
195
00:14:15,396 --> 00:14:17,856
but he and the Stranger
are right.
196
00:14:17,940 --> 00:14:19,024
We have to go.
197
00:14:26,532 --> 00:14:28,158
Dang it!
Wrong heroes.
198
00:14:44,758 --> 00:14:46,885
Dang it!
They can't help either.
199
00:14:49,388 --> 00:14:54,435
Holy freakin' moly!
Child's reversed gravity.
200
00:15:09,241 --> 00:15:13,245
Is that the wizard?
I can't believe he's helping.
201
00:15:13,329 --> 00:15:16,665
Come. We must find Child.
202
00:15:23,922 --> 00:15:24,965
Dang it!
203
00:15:28,135 --> 00:15:31,639
Whoa!
This one's even bigger
than the one in Sydney.
204
00:15:31,722 --> 00:15:34,516
Better to destroy
the entire World Ocean.
205
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,562
But Child
is already gone.
So we must follow.
206
00:15:42,524 --> 00:15:45,736
Oh!
I feel split in half.
207
00:15:45,819 --> 00:15:49,573
- I have to go
through this twice?
208
00:15:49,657 --> 00:15:53,160
Dang it! Whose idea was it
to split the Earth in two?
209
00:15:57,122 --> 00:15:58,248
Holy mo...
210
00:15:58,332 --> 00:15:59,708
Don't even say it.
211
00:16:11,637 --> 00:16:13,514
Child is gone.
212
00:16:19,395 --> 00:16:21,313
Finally we're safe.
213
00:16:21,397 --> 00:16:23,941
Dang it!
I keep seeing
the same heroes.
214
00:16:28,654 --> 00:16:32,449
Dang it.
Now I don't see
any heroes at all.
215
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:45,879
Dang it!
216
00:16:49,341 --> 00:16:51,760
There are no other
heroes here yet.
217
00:16:53,011 --> 00:16:54,680
Dang it!
218
00:16:54,763 --> 00:16:57,391
That means
we're getting closer.
219
00:16:59,643 --> 00:17:01,103
Dang it!
Dang it! Dang it!
220
00:17:01,186 --> 00:17:03,480
But we're the only ones here.
221
00:17:03,564 --> 00:17:05,524
We have to stop and help.
222
00:17:12,656 --> 00:17:15,659
Follow the plan.
We need to be
where Child is now.
223
00:17:15,743 --> 00:17:19,163
Dang it.
That was them.
That's who I need.
224
00:17:19,246 --> 00:17:21,331
Oh, but not this soon.
225
00:17:39,183 --> 00:17:44,229
The loss of my wife
sent me reeling, spinning.
226
00:17:44,313 --> 00:17:48,776
At Kent's suggestion,
and with his recommendation,
227
00:17:48,859 --> 00:17:50,903
I joined the Justice League.
228
00:17:50,986 --> 00:17:56,200
While I still battled
mystic threats,
I no longer faced them alone.
229
00:17:56,283 --> 00:17:58,660
I cut back on
performance tours,
230
00:17:58,744 --> 00:18:00,370
-and when I did travel...
231
00:18:00,454 --> 00:18:02,706
-...I brought Zatanna with me.
232
00:18:02,790 --> 00:18:05,501
And still, I was spinning.
233
00:18:05,584 --> 00:18:12,341
For just as I had been inspired
by Superman, Kent, and others
who had come before me,
234
00:18:12,424 --> 00:18:19,556
I, unfortunately,
had become an inspiration
to those coming after.
235
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,643
Thus, in a moment of crisis,
236
00:18:23,936 --> 00:18:26,814
my little girl over-reached.
237
00:18:26,897 --> 00:18:31,151
And in that moment,
my compass ceased to spin.
238
00:18:31,235 --> 00:18:34,780
Great Nabu,
release my daughter.
239
00:18:35,781 --> 00:18:37,407
No.
240
00:18:37,491 --> 00:18:41,954
Then and there,
I knew exactly what I must do.
241
00:18:42,037 --> 00:18:45,541
As if my entire life
had been designed
242
00:18:45,624 --> 00:18:51,630
like perfect prestidigitation
to lead up to this very moment.
243
00:18:51,713 --> 00:18:53,465
Take me instead.
244
00:18:56,134 --> 00:19:01,473
No, please!
This was my fault.
Dad, don't! Dad!
245
00:19:01,557 --> 00:19:03,559
But to her,
it must have seemed
246
00:19:03,642 --> 00:19:07,229
as if I was abandoning
my girl once again,
247
00:19:07,312 --> 00:19:10,732
taking my show
on the road permanently.
248
00:19:10,816 --> 00:19:17,531
Giving her no more
than one hour of my time
and attention every year.
249
00:19:17,614 --> 00:19:19,241
Daddy.
250
00:19:19,324 --> 00:19:21,994
But I took on
this burden.
251
00:19:22,077 --> 00:19:25,914
Sacrificed myself
to save my daughter.
252
00:19:38,010 --> 00:19:39,344
Action!
253
00:19:39,428 --> 00:19:42,431
Captain, we're surrounded.
Shields are failing.
254
00:19:42,514 --> 00:19:45,809
There is only one way
to survive this.
255
00:19:45,893 --> 00:19:48,312
We must surrender.
256
00:19:48,395 --> 00:19:52,149
Cut!
Print. Perfect.
257
00:19:58,530 --> 00:20:00,782
Jeez! It's cold!
258
00:20:00,866 --> 00:20:04,119
Gut it out,
and follow the plan.
Now!
259
00:20:04,202 --> 00:20:06,079
My compliments, humans.
260
00:20:06,163 --> 00:20:10,959
Your species has done
a marvelous job
melting this polar ice cap.
261
00:20:11,043 --> 00:20:13,670
But I believe I can do better.
262
00:20:13,754 --> 00:20:14,838
Care to watch?
263
00:20:18,425 --> 00:20:20,761
You can't kill me!
264
00:20:20,844 --> 00:20:22,262
Power of Zeus!
265
00:20:25,557 --> 00:20:29,645
Child, your mayhem
on this world ends now.
266
00:20:29,728 --> 00:20:33,690
We will restore peace,
where you have wrought havoc,
267
00:20:33,774 --> 00:20:36,860
for we are
the defenders of Order,
268
00:20:36,944 --> 00:20:38,987
the conquerors of Chaos.
269
00:20:39,071 --> 00:20:44,660
And for you,
a fate worse than death.
270
00:20:56,338 --> 00:21:00,634
Ooh! Pretty, pretty,
pretty, pretty!
271
00:21:16,733 --> 00:21:17,901
Like I said...
272
00:21:20,487 --> 00:21:23,156
You can't kill me!
273
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,576
You can't kill me!
274
00:21:26,660 --> 00:21:30,956
But I can kill every
living thing on this world.
275
00:21:43,301 --> 00:21:44,428
Dang it!
276
00:21:47,305 --> 00:21:50,642
No, wait. This is it.
I found them.
277
00:21:55,230 --> 00:21:56,064
Dad.
278
00:22:04,656 --> 00:22:09,036
Why do you tell us
what we have no need to know.
279
00:22:09,995 --> 00:22:12,414
There must be a record.
280
00:22:12,497 --> 00:22:15,667
We both know
my body cannot last forever.
281
00:22:15,751 --> 00:22:18,253
But you and the Helmet
will endure.
282
00:22:18,336 --> 00:22:22,591
I tell you these things,
so that when the time comes,
283
00:22:22,674 --> 00:22:24,885
you may tell my daughter.
284
00:22:24,968 --> 00:22:27,512
That is not
our responsibility.
285
00:22:27,596 --> 00:22:29,931
It is your responsibility.
286
00:22:30,015 --> 00:22:33,060
As long as you hold
my body hostage,
287
00:22:33,143 --> 00:22:39,941
I charge you, Nabu,
pass these words, my story,
on to my daughter.
288
00:22:44,488 --> 00:22:48,909
Hmm, fine.
We will honor your wishes
289
00:22:48,992 --> 00:22:51,203
if that becomes necessary.
290
00:22:51,286 --> 00:22:54,790
Oh, it seems
quite necessary.
291
00:22:54,873 --> 00:22:56,625
For in this coming battle,
292
00:22:56,708 --> 00:23:00,128
I will not allow
my daughter to perish.
293
00:23:00,212 --> 00:23:02,172
And it will almost
certainly take
294
00:23:02,255 --> 00:23:06,468
all that remains
of my vim vitae,
my life force,
295
00:23:06,551 --> 00:23:09,137
for Doctor Fate to survive,
296
00:23:09,221 --> 00:23:11,973
let alone triumph.
297
00:23:23,443 --> 00:23:25,987
The Stranger
had the right idea.
298
00:23:26,071 --> 00:23:28,698
We're in a crisis situation.
Again.
299
00:23:29,658 --> 00:23:31,493
If we make it out of this,
300
00:23:31,576 --> 00:23:35,497
we can't rely on
another villain like Wizard
to come through for us.
301
00:23:35,580 --> 00:23:39,126
Jeff, I think we have to start
thinking about organizing
302
00:23:39,209 --> 00:23:41,878
a true Justice League
Reserves system.
303
00:23:43,964 --> 00:23:46,007
Unfortunately,
I have the feeling
304
00:23:46,091 --> 00:23:50,178
we're going to need it
more and more
in the days to come.
