What are we gonna do?
Hmm, we're gonna go back to STAR Labs and tell them what happened.
You weren't gonna kill him?
No.
Which now means the end of the world is on me.
Hey, that vision you had... I was there, too. Like, I saw it.
All of us, together at the park?
Yeah.
I know this is, like, none of my business,
and there's a lot going on right now,
but I think that's why I need to say something...
In Gotham, in the Lazarus Pit,
when I was sucking up all the nightmares, I saw what Dick saw.
What are you talking about?
Dick had a vision, too, and it was, pretty much exactly like yours.
The little girl?
With the red balloon.
I don't know if he's talked to you about this.
No, he hasn't.
What's happening to me?
You're transitioning.
You started the process when you said the words.
Now, you must drink from the Well of Blood
and submerge your body in it to gain peace.
Until you do that, your misery will only grow.
No. No, I can't.
I won't.
I only came with you to stop you from killing my friends.
Just leave me alone.
- Is he ready? - Not yet.
We're running out of time. If we don't complete the ritual soon...
He must come to the Well of Blood willingly.
- And if he doesn't? - He will.
I have a plan.
He will.
Oh, hey. Look at you.
- Hey, Gar-virus. - Almost human-sized again.
Yeah, yeah.
How's Conner?
I'm not sure, he keeps calling me "home slice".
Well, he said I'm hotter than last July, so, I'd say he's fine.
Are you sure he's clean? From the curse?
Mmm, he's clean, all right.
I checked him up one side and down the other.
Good for you.
Where's Sebastian?
He sacrificed himself to save us. She has him now.
As far as we know, this temple could be on the top of Mount Everest.
And even if we do find it, how do we get him out of there?
We could teleport.
Or that's not a thing?
And this is all assuming the ritual hasn't already happened.
- If it has... - We're fucked.
The whole world is fucked.
We gotta still believe there's a chance.
A chance to save him.
Yes, anything less is a failure.
So what's our move?
Something happened to... to your head?
Are you wearing cologne?
It's Drakkar Noir. You're welcome.
If you're all done taking in the view...
Grab a seat.
We've got a demon to stop.
- Synced and corrected by Firefly - - www.addic7ed.com -
The Blood Moon sets in two hours and six minutes.
What's your big idea?
It's a three-step process.
We find them, kill them, and go have a cold one.
- Hot take. - We're not doing that.
I am done playing demon rescue-and-rehab.
This bitch killed my dad and put a snake up my guts.
It's time for her and the kid to go bye-bye.
She's on high alert. It's too dangerous.
We need to find a way to bring Sebastian back without a head-on battle.
There's an old saying, Richard.
"He, who doesn't learn from history is a..."
What is it? Oh, yeah, a fucking moron.
If we killed him when we had the chance,
we'd all be in the RV heading to 'Frisco right now.
Don't call it 'Frisco.
We don't kill people, Conner.
We're not murderers.
Got it. Except for all the people you've murdered.
Like the ones you burned alive in the asylum,
which caused this whole mess in the first place.
- That was different. - Hey!
I'm not complaining. Shit happens.
Sometimes, people die. It's not always a bad thing.
We're not killing Sebastian.
Even Bruce figured it out, eventually.
Do you know how many people The Joker
killed since Batman bashed his head in?
Zero. I like that kind of math.
Looks like you're not all the way back yet, are you?
No, I guess not.
Looks like you're not all the way back yet, are you?
I can't do this. I won't.
Deep inside, you know, the life you've led
is not the life you're meant to lead.
There are so many memories hidden,
because they're too painful to remember.
Are you ready to see them now?
This is your home now, Sebastian.
And this... is your room.
Just for me?
Oh, and here's a little "welcome home" gift.
I've seen other children your age play with these,
uh, although, I have to say, I don't really understand how they work.
I hope you do.
You were very happy for a time...
but then, your guardian made a mistake.
This is your home now, Lila.
She'll need your bedroom, Sabbie.
It's warmer in here and...
She's not well. You understand, don't you?
Come here, love.
Do you know what that is, Lila?
Why don't you let her have a try, Sabbie?
Thank you. You're a good boy.
Do you know what really happened that day?
You were punished because you were stronger than her.
But she was sick. I wasn't.
Was that your fault?
You had done nothing wrong.
Your strength should have been rewarded, not her weakness.
Hey, excuse me. Have you seen Conner?
Are you kidding? Take a look.
Bernard, I need orbital elements.
I gotta see what I'm working with, you feel me?
I feel you, Mr. Kent.
I think we can stop with the "Mr. Kent" business, don't you?
Just call me Conner. Or Mr. Luthor.
All right, Conner.
What the hell is going on?
Ask Mr. Luthor.
I am taking away the moon.
I accessed LexCorp's mainframe.
We're redirecting 58 of their satellites
to reflect sunlight back onto the moon.
It'll basically erase the illusion that the moon's turning red.
No Blood Moon, no blood ritual.
Okay, everyone, listen up.
Once we're fully online, I'm gonna need thrusters
on all satellites beyond 249.3 degrees East,
all the way up. Got it?
Hey, uh, Conner, can I talk to you for a second?
Kind of busy, Richard.
We're down to one hour, 46 minutes.
Please don't call me Richard.
You actually prefer Dick?
The last person to call me that was Lex Luthor.
Then he sent six ninjas to kill me and Tim,
so yeah, I actually prefer Dick.
Okay.
You know he wasn't actually trying to kill you, right?
He was just sending a message.
How do you know?
'Cause if he were trying to kill you,
he would have rigged the room with explosives.
That's what I would have done, if I wanted to kill you.
Look, Conner, you've been through a lot, lately.
An hour ago, we thought you were dead.
- Why don't you take some time... - No time.
If we don't re-position these satellites now, we miss our chance.
- Thoughts? - About Conner?
That something is definitely wrong.
It's like, the "Lex" side of him is taking over,
which, of course, means that this satellite idea
is probably going to work.
All right, go for it.
Thank you. Sir.
I knew you'd see it my way...
Dick.
By the way, how's your, uh, "non-confrontational,
let's just sneak Sebastian out the back door of the temple
while May Bennet's looking the other way" plan going?
Hey, Dick. I have an idea.
It's going great. Thanks for asking.
Do you remember when Gar mentioned teleportation earlier?
Well, that is the idea.
I remember when he said it hadn't been invented yet.
Yeah, well, if you'd bothered to ask me, I would've told you
that it has, by magicians, over 10,000 years ago.
They should have told somebody.
Yeah, I didn't say they'd perfected it.
How am I gonna explain this to you?
Does anyone know how to turn this on and make it do things?
No, wait, fuck it. I... I'm gonna do this the old-fashioned way.
Okay.
***
Okay.
So, the old magicians got the first part nailed.
There has always been a spell to get someone to disorganize.
- "Disorganize"? - Yeah. You know,
go all to bits. That was the easy part.
The hard part was putting them back together again.
And that's where things went wrong.
You'd always end up with some poor bloke
with a... a foot sticking out of his mouth,
or just a big mass of quivering jelly with one blinking eye.
Uh, this is beginning to sound not very promising.
Yeah. The other problem was that no one could ever predict
exactly where a person would be when they re-organized.
Back then they didn't know that the earth moved through space,
so someone could re-appear a mile high in the sky,
or right at the bottom of the ocean.
If only there was a computer that could predict in time and space
exactly where a disorganized person would reorganize.
And had the ability to control the reorganization.
Right down to the very last atom.
Oh, wait. We do. You're welcome.
Where is Espenson?
You're fighting your instincts.
But your instincts have always guided you to your destiny.
Even when the world stood in your way.
So, in this line of code, X equals X plus one.
You can see we have a variable, then an equal sign,
then that same variable again, then some math operator.
In this case, it happens to be a plus sign.
- Then a one and... - I see a shortcut.
Instead of writing "X equals X plus one",
um, you could just write "X plus equals one"
and it performs the same function.
Ding-ding, Mr. Sanger. Looks like you are headed to the bonus round,
where the scores can really change.
Lame.
Hey, Sebastian, hang back a sec.
So... you're a smart kid.
Now, here's the thing,
teaching is about fundamentals, not shortcuts.
And I'm worried that you haven't mastered the fundamentals.
Take this to the guidance office.
Have Mr. Perez find you a spot in Basic Programming.
I was... I was trying to help.
I think you need to work on your maturity level.
That's all. You can go.
He punished you for being smarter than him.
That's what happens when common people are given power
over those who are extraordinary.
Mother, there is something you need to see.
- This can't be happening. - But it is...
The pain of his transition is growing.
Mother, make him enter the Well.
Make him drink from it now.
No. I won't force him.
So the trick is re-organizing matter
back into its original coherent shape.
Theoretically, it's what Beast Boy does every time he transforms.
Can it be done for someone who's DNA isn't already encoded?
How long do I have to figure it out?
No time at all.
Hard maybe.
Right, it's nearly time. You ready to power up?
What makes you think you can get me my powers back, again?
Okay. Well, I never said I could get you your powers back.
I said I had a spell to help you find them.
You can still feel them, can't you?
Like a phantom limb? Or when someone you love dies.
They might be gone, but the connection is always there.
- Yeah. That's how it feels. - Mmm-hmm.
The thing is though, Rachel,
magic is about intention, right?
So, your powers couldn't have been taken from you,
unless a part of you wanted to lose them.
You think I wanted this to happen?
Well, you tell me.
You've done a lot of amazing things in your life,
but you've never just been normal.
Being normal...
Yeah, that felt pretty good.
Do you even want your powers back?
'Cause if you don't, that is okay. I'll never tell.
Maybe being normal is a little overrated.
Yes, I could not agree more.
So, Raven...
let's get started.
What are you doing?
Right. Eat that.
- What? - Yeah.
That's a part of the spell.
A very important, albeit disgusting part.
So, start eating.
Okay.
- Why does it smell like... - Pineapple-mango?
Yeah, that's my conditioner.
You know, that doesn't help.
Really? Pineapple-mango is nice.
That's it.
Quickly, like ripping off a band-aid.
Well done.
Bernard. What's up?
You'd better get over here.
Flatten the eccentricity of all northern satellites to .078.
Increase inclination by 39.
Yes, sir.
You, maximize Delta-V between longitudes, a 165.3 degrees East,
- 14.7 degrees West. Quickly. - Okay.
- This is insane. - Compared to what?
Two hours ago I was inside a stomach trying to kill a ghost snake.
And two hours before that, we were fighting zombies.
And I kissed Bernard.
Big night for everyone.
- We don't have all night. - Whoa!
And in her grace and wisdom...
Yo.
Luna granted us the Moon.
All satellites orientation complete.
Yes.
Well, he pulled it off.
We have just over an hour.
If the Blood Moon does not return to us, we are...
It will.
There's no natural way this can be happening.
Hack into the LexCorp server.
I think I know who's behind this.
Tonight's been pretty crazy.
I know.
I kept imagining Kal-El flying in and seeing bald Conner
ordering everyone around.
Yeah, but, I was thinking more about us.
Oh.
Speaking of that, um...
If we find this temple...
Are you going?
Sounds like we might not have to.
Thank God.
What?
Uh, because it sounded very dangerous,
and all you have is that tiny Bo staff that you barely know how to use.
Um, why don't you ask that snake if I know how to use it?
- Oh, well, maybe I will. - Oh.
Oh, but I can't. Can I? 'Cause you killed it, didn't you?
My hero.
You know, sooner or later,
I am gonna have to go fight with them.
As long as it's later.
You okay?
You don't look so good.
Yeah, I don't feel so good.
Why don't you go lie down. Go get some rest.
It's okay. I just gonna get some fresh air. No, I'm okay. I'll...
Hey, do you want some company?
It's okay. It's been happening to me all day.
You seem restless. Are you all right, my friend?
I'm not really in the mood for conversation right now.
Yet so many wish to speak with you.
If you want an autograph, I can sign a napkin or something.
Listen...
You see? They speak.
Do I know you?
The animals, they also see.
You will see,
like Buddy Baker and Mari McCabe, but you must look.
Well, it was nice speaking with you, but I gotta go.
Wait!
When the tower splits in half, go to The Red.
What?
When the tower splits in half, when you see it happen,
take yourself to The Red. Do you understand?
Do not forget this.
In the end, all of life, everyone and everything,
it depends on you... Garfield Logan.
Hey!
Uh, sorry.
Good work. That was impressive.
I know.
You bought us some time.
Pretty sure I saved your ass, but... sure.
You moved some satellites. You didn't stop the earth from turning.
When they drift out of position,
they'll have a five-minute window to do the ritual
just before the moon sets.
But you knew that, right?
If they figure it out, which they probably won't.
Right now, they're panicking, and panic clouds rational thought.
I gotta be honest, Conner.
I'm starting to get a little concerned about you.
Why? 'Cause I'm winning so hard?
Leather jacket, the bald head, I get it, you're changing,
you're growing, that's all good.
Just trust me, you don't want it to happen too fast.
Mmm, too fast.
Well, you know what, I'd say it's happening just in fucking time.
Rachel's useless.
Gar's losing his mind, Kory's blue-thing, inconsistent at best.
And, Tim, well, he can't do anything... at all.
So, if I were you,
I'd stop worrying about my best player
and just take the win.
You're not the only one to ever have to go through this.
Me, Kory, Rachel, Gar, we've been there.
We've all had to fight a battle with our dark side.
This isn't my dark side.
This is the side that's looking out for me.
Maybe that's why you don't like it.
If we're done here,
we'll be in the lab setting up a way to bring Sebastian back.
We could use your help.
You.
Have the LexCorp servers had any hack attempts in the last ten minutes?
Four minutes ago. Mainframe breach.
Satnav was accessed and viewed.
- Point of origin? - Huh?
Where did it come from?
Um... North Metro Quadrant. Just off State Road 19 near Hynek Lake.
The Fire Creek Dam.
That's where she is.
Thank you.
Go ahead. This will ease your pain.
At least for now.
We don't have much time.
When the moment comes, you must be ready.
- Please... - No.
I need your full attention now.
You still have a final lesson to learn.
What's this?
I knew you'd forget.
Oh, no.
It was six months ago, tonight, that I came into your store.
- Oh, my God. - And you were standing there
with your... your apron and your little turtle...
Tortoise, actually, and it was quite big, so...
Yes, tortoise. Whatever.
And, uh, you looked up at me...
"Hello, then. Can I help you?"
Is that supposed to be me? But I don't sound like that, do I?
- You sound exactly like that. - Oh, my God.
And I remember thinking, um...
"That's the loneliest man I've ever seen.
Why is he so lonely?
I've gotta do something about that".
And I've seen you every single day since then.
Are you gonna open it?
You always talked about how the one your mother gave you
was the start of everything, so...
And now with you designing your own game,
I thought maybe it would be... inspirational.
We need to talk.
Uh... okay.
Well, I... I think you... you know what I'm going to say.
I really don't.
It's over.
You're joking, right?
- What's... what's wrong? - This.
All of this, this... None of it makes any sense.
I mean, what... what am I supposed to do?
Just sit here and wait for you to figure it out?
What are you talking about?
Don't, don't, don't, don't do that.
Don't act all surprised, or... or upset, or...
Look, um,
I'm... I'm trying to make this easier on both of us.
Are you breaking up with me?
Yes.
Look, um... Okay.
- I don't know what's hap... - I can't do this anymore!
I'm sorry. Sorry, sorry.
I'm sorry.
I... Look, I... I know how this goes.
Things seem great, and then,
someone else comes along. And that's it.
- What? That isn't true. - Yes. Yes, yes, it is.
See, I'm not the destination, Julie. I never am.
I'm just a step along the way.
You're wrong.
You can lie to yourself...
but don't lie to me.
Look, I'm... I'm gonna go.
Uh...
I think we have more to talk about, so I'm gonna call you...
Don't.
Why did you do it?
Because I knew she would, eventually...
When other people hurt you, that's a tragedy.
But if you take up the cudgel and do it for them, that's a sin.
Every single one of your followers knows your greatness.
They will never leave you.
If you don't know that, you're lost.
We pledge our eternal devotion.
Show him your devotion.
We pledge our eternal devotion.
They see you. They know what you are.
Do you?
Yes. I do.
So, do I have enough juice?
Did you do something to increase your strength?
I'm not sure. Why?
When I saw you last week, you only had access to 8.1%
of your total estimated kinetic output.
You now have access to over 80%.
And what does that mean?
It means, you need to be careful.
This isn't just a weapon anymore, Kory.
If you go all out, it'll consume you.
It'll kill you.
All right. We need to be clear
on exactly how this is gonna work.
Let's run it one more time. Rachel?
I'll reach out, search for my powers and then,
from there, I should be able to zone-in on Sebastian.
Okay, once that starts... Kory?
I join hands with Rachel and begin feeding her my blue light.
And once the connection is secure... Jinx?
I join hands with Rachel and Kory,
and once Sebastian is thoroughly disorganized,
the three of us draw him back here.
And as long as all his physical matter ends up
somewhere in this room, I'll reassemble him.
All right. Once we start, we've got one shot at this.
It has to work. Okay.
Hey.
Just wanted to say thank you.
For what? I haven't done anything yet.
Either way, I'd say you've earned your five million dollars.
Don't make me regret it.
You really think this was about the money?
Wasn't it?
Yeah. Yeah, of course.
But, I have to admit, hanging out with you these past few days,
it's been a lot more fun than I expected.
You call this fun?
Sick, isn't it?
What have I become?
Let's go get Sebastian.
Do it.
With pleasure.
So...
How did that feel?
You have pleased me by coming here
and showing me your capacity for blind rage.
An instinct you have ignored for too long.
You killed my father.
He was so easy to kill.
I sent the same serpent for you to do my bidding,
but you are so much stronger than him.
But you're not stronger than me.
Okay, Rachel, focus on the light.
Now,
picture your power growing like leaf-shoots bursting from a tiny seed
and spreading out, searching for air,
searching for sunlight.
Searching for you.
Now, Kory.
They've got Conner.
Fire Creek Dam.
Forty miles north of here.
Funded by the Luthor Foundation.
Yep. That's where they are. Maybe 200 feet underneath.
Then that's where we're going.
I thought we wanted to avoid a head-on confrontation?
Thanks to Conner, now we have no choice.
Can't we teleport them both out?
No! When you try and do two, their cells intermingle.
It's not pretty.
And do them one at a time, they'll notice what's happening
and make sure it doesn't.
All right. Find Gar. We leave in five minutes.
Dick, wait!
This prophecy, it's, um...
I don't know. I have a really bad feeling about tonight.
If you're asking if I believe in that? No, I don't.
Well, it's hard to dismiss, isn't it?
Everything else is coming true...
To hell with prophecies and destinies, and visions.
Kory, you said it yourself,
you've had more visions than anyone,
and none of them have come true.
There's one more.
You and me...
and a little girl holding a red balloon.
I had it, too.
Why didn't you tell me?
I don't know.
It's okay.
It's like you said. To hell with visions.
This is a map to the temple based on what Rachel saw.
Gar, you're first. Break in and find Rachel's powers.
We need her back up to full speed as soon as possible.
Be destructive. Something big.
I got it covered.
All I need from you is to keep her distracted,
while, Tim, and Rachel find Conner and Sebastian and get out of there.
That leaves the rest up to you.
I'm gonna have to get real close.
You can kill her?
Yeah, I could fucking kill her. I'll take her out. Nut her!
I mean, I will freeze her
long enough for us to get the fuck out of there, presumably.
Let's be clear on one thing. This is not personal.
This is a smash-and-grab.
We get in, we get the boys and get out. Understood?
All right, let's go.
Hey, it's okay, Krypto. We'll bring him back.
I promise.
Mother... the Blood Moon is coming back.
We only have five minutes.
The time for transformation is finally here.
Drink from the blood.
Then bathe in the pool.
Only then, your transformation will be complete.
Azarath. Metrion. Zinthos.
Rachel?
I have no idea.
I have to admit, as welcomes go...
This is a little on the chilly side.
What's that, love? Can't hear you.
Jinx!
Fuck! Not again.
I got this.
Hey!
Son, help me!
Sebastian! Sebastian, come on, please, it's not too late.
Please, Sebastian!
I'm sorry, Rachel. I'm staying.
Sebastian, you don't have to do this.
Yes, I do.
I'm just so tired of being nothing.
No!
Take me to The Red.
My son, you're finally home.
