Someone's been
spying on us, Pat.

I need Courtney Whitmore.

Courtney!

Jennie, what's going on?

My ring was corrupted
by the Shade's shadows,

and now the darkness
is leaking into it.

Jennie needs to exorcise
the darkness from her ring.

You can help me overcome

the darkness within me.

No!

I finally found my brother.

- No!
- Ah!

And he needs our help.

If you
take me out of this room,

I'll destroy the world.

I'm not leaving you here!

Ah!

Courtney! Look out!

Pat!

Hey,
are we in the Shadow lands?

Yes, because you insisted
on helping

those irksome children.

More proof that no good deed
goes unpunished.

How did we get here?

Alan Scott's daughter
has the power of light,

but his son,
for reasons I don't understand,

has the power of the shadows,
like me.

Me coming into direct contact
caused some kind of feedback,

which seems
to have banished us here.

Okay,
we gotta find a way back.

That... that's a brilliant
strategy.

I'm truly watching
a master at work.

Hey, Swift,
I'm doing the best that I can...

No, no, please,
please don't apologize.

I can think enough
for the two of us.

Lucky for you,

you're with the sole being
in existence

that knows how to escape
this dreadful place.

Come now.

Let's get home.

Okay then.

I'll do it... right here.

Ah!

Swift!

You okay? Huh?

No.

It seems until Jennie's ring

is free from its corruption,
I'm as useless as...

you.

Ugh.

It's okay, Kritter.

We're okay.

Good God, what now?

It hurts.

Todd? You can control this.

Focus on your sister,
your family.

Family.

What's wrong with you, Todd?

You like boys?

That's sick.

No wonder your real father
didn't want you.

And me? I run my group home
for normal kids.

You're filth.

Tainted.

You'll be alone forever.

We're gonna fix your sins.

I'll beat 'em out of you

for as long as it takes.

Todd!

The hell?

You have caused

quite a lot of trouble tonight,
young lady.

What's going on?

Where are my friends?

I didn't hear a "ma'am"
in there anywhere.

Such disrespect.

Oh, you wanna talk
about disrespect?

How about lying to us?

You said Todd wasn't here.

All right, I lied.

But you don't understand
how necessary it was.

Necessary?

His sister's been looking
for him everywhere

going out of her mind...

Where is she?

Jennie-Lynn is safe
for the moment,

but her brother...

Your drop-in visit tonight

interrupted
a very important procedure,

and now you have endangered
everyone, including him.

Jennie-Lynn may
burn down buildings

in her weaker moments,
but Todd?

The whole world could
be swallowed up in shadow

if we don't get him
under control.

We are going to help him,

and you're going home,
Star girl.

I'm not going anywhere.

My dad...

Pat.

I think Todd
sent him and the Shade

into the Shadow lands.

The Shadow lands?

What Pat
could be going through,

it could kill him.

It's horrible. I've been there.

You've been to this place?

It's where the Shade
gets his power from,

and Todd, it looks like.

You shouldn't have come here.

Wait.

Ugh!

Whatever's happening
on the other side,

Jennie's ring is still
connected to the Shadow lands.

That isn't normal.

I mean, is there anything
normal in this town?

Believe it or not,
the Shadow lands has rules,

- and you'd better learn them.
- All right.

For one thing,
this place preys

on your subconscious;

Your fears and regrets.

While I, of course,
don't harbor

such worthless emotions,
I'm quite sure that you do.

And if you give into them,

it could jeopardize us both.

You're keeping up with this,
yes?

Yeah, yeah, I got it.
I understand.

Also, doorways here,

they usually take you
where you most desire to go,

taking their cues
from the subconscious.

It rarely turns out
for the best.

If I can't get us home
the way I did before,

our only hope is to...
keep moving,

avoiding the hungry wraiths

your insecurities
will no doubt conjure up

until I can...

I can find a way out.

It should have taken us
somewhere else.

Why?

Because the diner
is insignificant to me.

Well,
that's not entirely true.

This is where you refused
to forgive me.

Isn't it, Mr. Swift?

- Gambler...
- It's not him.

- It's a construct.
- Sure looks like him.

It's awfully hypocritical
of you not to forgive me.

- Wouldn't you say?
- Ignore him.

You caused your sister
so much pain,

yet she still forgave you,
didn't she?

Enough.

Sweet, dear Emily.

What did you say to her
on the day she died?

- Do you remember?
- Out.

- Go!
- Where?

Away from him.

Oh.

From one grease pit to another.

Damn it.

Who is that?

Well, what are you
standing around for?

Grab a wrench.

Dad?

- Todd!
- Jennie!

- No!
- No!

No!

Hello?

Let me out of here!

This room is
designed for your protection

and ours.

The walls are coated

with an energy defusing
polymer

to assist in power control
and suppression.

Whoever the hell you are,
open the door!

I'm a friend, Ms. Hayden.

I'm an ally to both you
and your brother.

I only want
what's best for you both.

Let me out of here.

I'm sorry,

but you and Todd
can never be together again.

Damn thing keeps overheating.

Sarge is gonna have my ass

unless I get her
up and running.

You wanna help me, son?

I always tried to.

You did try.

Remember the garage
on the base?

You were always at my side.

We should go, Pat.

You were like
a tick on a dog, son.

Every time
you tried to fix something,

you made it worse,

like our family.

You should have brought me
and your mom closer together,

but instead,
she pushed me away.

I was too hard on you.

She worried
about your feelings.

Made you weak.
Stand up straight, would you?

I was never proud

to call you my son.

This is the Shadow lands.

A nightmare version
of the people in our lives.

- It twists their words.
- No.

Not this time, Shade.

My real father
spoke every word of this.

You've always been worthless,

playing second fiddle
to everyone in your life.

You've never been a standout,
a leader,

have you?

We need to go.

Still miss you, Pop.

Don't turn your back on me.

I should've been harder on you.

No.

What is it?

Nothing that I care to see.

Ah!

Dickie, is that you?

Have you come to say goodbye?

Don't let me die alone.

Not like Father.

Don't ignore me.

Please.

Say something.

Ah!

Shade.

I know it's difficult
to lose people that you love.

Yes, spare me

your bleeding-heart sentiments,
please.

Courtney survived
the Shadow lands because...

Because of me.

She got out because of you.

She survived because of her.

She had to face
her own darkness

in order to get past it.

You're telling me
about the darkness?

I'm just saying,
maybe the key here

is to face things.

You don't run away.

I'm incapable
of feeling anything.

Have you been watching us?

In our town, our school,
our... our homes?

You picked the wrong people
to do this to, you know that?

They're going to find you
if they haven't already.

Star man,
the Justice Society of America,

all of our friends.

They'll be coming for us.

For you.

Y-you think I'm helpless
without my staff.

I'm not.

No, but that's the point.

You can set the staff aside.

Just as Yolanda
can put Wildcat's suit away.

Rick the hourglass,
Beth her goggles.

You're not like Jennie
and her brother.

You're not like me.

I don't even know
who you are.

You'll have to try harder
if you want to scare me.

My appearance is not
a choice I can make.

My mother was subjected
to experiments

while pregnant with me.

Beyond my flesh
being transparent,

I was born with a...
cyanide touch,

these doctors called it.

Anything I come
into contact with dies.

That included my mother.

Nurse Love rescued me
from the people who did this.

But there was nothing
to be done.

I'm sorry, I really am, but...

I am as cursed
as Jennie and Todd,

unlike you and your friends.

We were born this way.

Here at Helix,

we help those like us learn
to live a life of isolation.

You teach them
how to hide from the world?

We help our patients survive
the only way they can.

Alone.

When Jennie's ring was infected
by the shadows,

it connected her to Todd,
and his power became unstable.

If we cannot suppress
Todd's power,

he will destroy us all.

Shade, you okay?

Traveling through the fire
like that, I don't...

I don't think
I can do it again.

Emily asked
if I'd come say goodbye.

But the truth is, I didn't say
anything to my sister

the day she died
'cause I wasn't there.

I wasn't there.

I couldn't, you see.

I had to separate myself
from her.

Losing people is just too hard.

Forget that limey.

We're not done, son.

Jennie's still
too close to Todd.

We need to take her
far from here.

Maybe I wasn't born
like Jennie or Todd

or you, but I know
what it's like to lose family,

to feel so flawed
you must have pushed them away.

I've carried that curse too.

But Jennie and Todd
are meant to be together.

I saw her powers reacting
to his hurting.

She's the light he needs,
not those lamps.

My power, Jennie's,

it all reacts to how we feel.

That's why I think
Todd's connection with Jennie

is the only thing
that can save him.

It also might be the one thing
that brings Pat home.

Look,
I know what you're doing here,

and I understand why, I do.

But life isn't about living
in isolation.

It can't be.

Because if we're alone...

what's the point of anything?

If you're wrong,

we all die.

Jennie, are you all right?

Courtney, where's Todd?

Waiting for you.

You need to be with him.

- But when I touched him, it...
- You both were frightened.

And you know what that does
to you and the fire.

For Todd, well, he became...

a living doorway
to the Shadow lands, I think.

What can we do?

Do what we did for you.

Stand with him. Don't go away.

Have faith.

You think I'm a bad father,
Pat.

But look at your son.

He does everything he can
to get your attention.

Just like you did with me.

But you don't see Mike
at all,

so like you,
he feels worthless.

Don't.
Don't listen to them, Pat.

You're gonna die alone,
Mr. Swift,

like your sister.

No one's gonna say goodbye
because you haven't earned it.

You shouldn't be here.

She'll never really be his mom.

Mike's mom abandoned him
when he was what?

Three or four years old?

She got strung out and left him

at a soup kitchen.

You got Mike and left

and never spoke
about Mommy again.

You wanted him to forget Maggie
and move on.

Like you did.

Mike thinks
about his mom every day.

He doesn't say it.

But he feels as unwanted

as Courtney does.

One day, I'm gonna hate you

as much as you hate your dad.

I don't hate him, Mike.
I don't.

- And I never did.
- Good. Pat, that's good.

Don't give in,
and we'll be out.

You have to go to him.

What if I hurt him again?

Do you wanna hurt him?

Then you won't.

Please. You need to leave.

I'm not going anywhere, Todd.

We shouldn't have
trusted you.

Where are we?

Todd, I...

I don't understand
any of this.

I don't understand
it yet either.

All I know
is we finally found each other.

We need to go.

- You go.
- Come on!

You go, please.

Dad left his ring for me.

He knew we would find
each other with it.

Somehow, he knew.

We've always been connected.

We always will be.

We have to be.

The light and the darkness.

- Todd!
- Jennie!

No!

Jennie!

- Come on!
- I told you,

I could die going
back into that fire.

Hey, you either die in here,
or you die trying.

Pick one.

Fair enough, Pat Dugan.

Well,
I guess you were right.

Where's the...

skeleton guy?

He's calming
some of our other patients.

We don't often have nights
with this much excitement.

I hope this won't become
a regular occurrence.

I think we've got it
under control.

You both still
have a home at Helix.

What you're doing here
isn't right.

All of our patients
are free to go

any time they wish.

No one is being held
against their will.

That's actually true,
Courtney.

Oh.

Even so.

Spying on us
like you've been doing?

Spying on you?

They were behind the cameras?

What are you talking about?

The cameras you put up
all over Blue Valley.

- Inside our homes...
- We did no such thing.

Then how do you know
so much about us?

We do our research, yes.

But spying on you
with hidden cameras?

Don't be ridiculous.

Yes, well.

Then we're all done here?

Or at least I am.

I'm gonna go.

Where?

With my sister.

I don't think that's wise,
Mr. Rice.

But...

best of luck.

I trust we all keep
each other's secrets?

You didn't happen
to teach fifth grade math

back in the early 1980s
in Omaha, Nebraska, did you?

I don't care
for your attitude, Mr. Dugan.

I knew that was you.

Courtney Whitmore might have
been right, Nurse Love.

About what?

Isolation might not be
the answer these kids need.

Maybe Helix should form
a team of our own.

You know,
I still can't believe

that there's someone else
out there

with the same powers as mine.

Potentially even greater.

- Envious?
- Oh.

Sympathetic.

You know,
when I first experienced them,

they're frightening.

So help him.

I mean,
think about how much different

your life would have been
had somebody helped you.

Yes, well, who knows.

You've lived like this
for over 100 years, Shade.

If there's anything
on the planet

that can help Todd
figure this out,

it's not Helix.

- It's you.
- I-I'm no teacher, Pat.

Yeah, I get that,
but you want redemption

for the past, right?

Well, it isn't just about
not doing bad things, Shade.

It's about doing good.

And you helped
to destroy the JSA.

I did not kill...

You were an accessory,

whether you want
to face that or not.

And those kids right there?

They're the orphans
that were left behind.

All right, that's enough,
Stripesy.

Ugh.

My heart's dream.

Saddled with reprobates.

Ah, yes, hello. Um...

Rather than make my exit,

I'd like to extend...

a hand.

If you're amenable to my help
with the shadows?

Yeah, I'd appreciate that.

I'm not so sure.

Well, then,
please turn me down.

- I do need to get to New York.
- New York?

It's where Sandy Hawkins is.

Wesley Dodd's nephew.

Wesley Dodds, the Sandman?

Look, I agreed to helping
two children, not three.

Sandy has nightmares
of people in trouble

like his uncle used to.

That's how I knew
Todd was here.

Sandy dreamt about me and Todd
and reached out to me.

I promised him
I'd help with his nightmares

once I found Todd.

Ugh, New York. Fine.

But things are gonna
be different from now on.

None of your
outlandish theatrics.

Right, follow me.

Thanks, Courtney. Bye, Pat.

- Pat?
- Yeah?

How do we get home?

I can't believe the Shade
actually agreed to help them.

But, Pat,
that proves it's possible.

People can reform.

You know what else?

I helped Jennie and Todd

just like I helped
Yolanda and Rick and Beth

without the staff.

I know what I need to do
when I get back.

Not give up

on... on the villains,
on my friends.

On myself.

Pat?

What do you think?

Sounds good. All of it.

I'm sorry, it's just, I, uh...

can't shake it.

I understand.

When I went to the Shadow lands,
I saw and heard stuff

that was really hard see too.

If you wanna talk about them...

Not yet.

Whenever.

Thanks.

Pat.

This has left us
with one question.

If Helix hasn't been
the one spying on us...

then who?

Greg, move your head.

Mad Ghost!
