All language subtitles for Justice League 03x08 The Return.en

'We regret to say that
your request to leave Earth'

and begin a tour of duty
on Ca has been denied.

This is important.
You can't just--

No debates,
John Stewart.

We've made our decision.

With all due respect...
wouldn't it be a simple matter

for John and Kyle Rayner
to trade duties

for just a short time?

You know, I am getting
a little homesick.

Sure would be nice
to see Earth again.

The Green Lantern Corps
is a military institution

dedicated to the protection
of the galaxy.

We will not alter
our decisions, disrupt our plans

simply because of
your personal problems.

It's our business
to know these things.

You're going to have to
work through it, John.

What is it?

'There's an unidentified
object approaching Oa'

at a somewhat
astonishing speed.

We're on it.

Nothing's going to get
through this baby.

Activate planetary
defenses.

Magnify image.

- Professor lvo's android.
- Holy mother of..

Oa. It's gone.
Just like that.

We've got another problem.

The Android's heading
for Earth.

We'll set up three layers
of defense.

'One on the ground, one in the
upper atmosphere, one in space.‘

That's me. I want to
hammer that thing

before it gets
anywhere near here.

Move out.

What is it?

When the Android left Earth
he said he'd evolved

to a level where none of us
could offer him anything.

So why is he coming back?

'Your new book,
"Into The Light'"

'certainly projects the image
of a man who's reformed.‘

But many people are skeptical,
Mr. Luthor, for good reason.

I understand
their skepticism, Saroya

but the fact is I'm not
the man I was before.

This device may prevent
the spread

of my kryptonite-induced
cancer for another 30 years.

Or another 30 days.

For all I know, it might
only be another 30 minutes.

However fate plays her hand

I want my remaining time
to have meaning

to make a positive difference
in the world.

So you're a new man.

No grudges, no vendettas,
even against the Justice League?

Oh, far from it.
I owe them everything.

They trusted me when
no one else would.

I'd like to think that
we might be friends some..

What the devil?

Uhh! Uhh!

Let go!

Keep fighting me, Lex,
and I just might.

What is this about?

There's an old friend
of yours coming back to town.

lvo's android.

Wherever you're taking me
won't be safe enough

but I have just the place.

- A barbershop?
- Gotta hand it to you, Luthor.

Nobody would think
to look for you here.

So after you get your
nose hairs trimmed, then what?

Just watch.

Hey!

- Where?
- Guess we just pick one.

Uhh!

Uhh! Uhh!

Kryptonite. Uhh.

Thinks of everything,
doesn't he?

Open.

'What's the matter, Lex?‘

- 'Scared?‘
- The atom.

You came with the other two,
no doubt.

You sound so disappointed.

The most powerful creature
in the universe wants my head

and the league sends its least
powerful member to protect me.

Come on, Lex.
You're smarter than that.

You know I'm an expert
on nanotechnology.

Yes, yes.

The very same technology
lvo used to create the Android.

Which means I'm
just the man

to find the chink
in the Android's armor.

And how are you
going to find that chink

without the Android's
blueprints?

The League confiscated them.

And now they've
unconfiscated them.

'You cannot keep me
from my goal.‘

- Telepathy.
- I'm not impressed.

Why have you come back?
What do you want?

'Why do you ask questions
you already know the answer to?‘

- Luthor.
- 'Of course.‘

We're not going to
give them up.

He's your enemy.
You owe him nothing.

Turn back now.

I have evolved far beyond
what I was when we last met.

You do not want
to challenge me.

Line 'em up!

Uhhh ahhh!

The Android, why does
he hate you so much?

I once took advantage
of his naivete.

He's not naive anymore

and I've stopped taking
advantage of the innocent.

Let's hope you'll be
more convincing

if you have
to tell him that.

'Gentlemen..'

Bad news?

Not the laser,
use the proton gun.

And completely fry
the circuitry?

That's what
circuit breakers are for.

Don't question me,
you incompetent idiot!

We'll beat 'em, Lex.

We will.

Where are you?

(Lex)
'...and connect the Heisenberg
compensators in series.‘

- He's coming in.
- Not for long.

Hyah! Ooh!

Uhh!

Your bravery is admirable,
but annoying.

Uhh!

Second line of defense
is down.

Prepare yourselves.

You'll need that cannon
very soon.

Then stop interrupting us!

- Have you come to offer help?
- Not help. Hope.

When will you learn?

Aah!

Uhh!

Uhh ahh!

Uhh.

Lock and load.

An intriguing idea,
modifying the cannon

so that it could alter
my programming.

And it might have worked
a month ago

when I was still nanotech

but I have transcended
that limitation.

You're alive.

Which is more than
I can say for 0a.

What's the plan?

We're going to use every bit of
power we have left in our rings.

Take one last shot
at the Android.

A blast like that could
destroy half the planet.

Half a planet's
better than none.

It's the only way.

Hmm, those words
are always used

to justify destruction.

We can only guess how much
power the Android has amassed

as it's worked its way
across the galaxy.

It has to be stopped, Fate.
Here and now.

Not just for the sake of
this world

but for all worlds.

Then for the sake of
all worlds

I will continue to seek
a better way.

Uhh!

Uhh. Uhh.

Uhh, uhh.

You lied to me, Luthor.

Mmf uhh!

Ooh!

'Manipulated me.‘

Used me to serve your own
despicable ends.

What are you waiting for?
Just do it.

Good idea.

A subatomic universe.

Figured the Android can't kill
what he can't see.

'Oh, but I can see you.'

Did you really think
I couldn't follow you here?

No universe, however large,
however small, is denied to me.

What do you want from me?

You have everything
humans desire..

Wealth, power..

Yet you crave more

and you'll do
anything to get it.

'Why? What is your
ultimate purpose?‘

What you're really asking
is, what is yours?

Wait. Please.

The Android's nature
has proved benign before.

I believe it will again.

Benign? You call
destroying Oa benign?

Not even you can stand
against the Green Lantern Corps.

What the devil's going on?

Lex Luthor is
saving the world.

The truth is,
for all my struggles

to make my mark in life,
for all I've accomplished

in just a few short generations,
my name will be forgotten.

Even the greatest of us can't
compete with time and death.

Then why do you go on?
Why does anyone?

Why don't I just destroy you
and everything else right now?

'All it would take is
a single thought and--'

No! If you do that,
you won't see the end of it.

The end of what?

The evolutionary process.

You, of all beings, should know
something about that.

Yes, yes, I'm evolving.

That's why
Professor lvo made me.

These past months, I have
amassed so much knowledge

and yet I remain
confused, empty.

What am I evolving into?
What is my purpose?

I must know!
Tell me!

There's no way to tell.

And that's why
I stay in the game.

My purpose, if you will,
is to see where it's all going.

And you, you'll live forever.

You'll be able to see it all.

Is that my purpose?
Simply to be a witness?

We create our own
purpose in life.

Now go create yours.

You know, when I heard
you were coming

I was actually afraid of you.
Petrified.

But now, when I see your fear,
your uncertainty

I just pity you.

Should have quit
while you were ahead.

Oh! Aah!

Ohh!

- Get out of the way.
- It's over, isn't it?

Yes.

He murders an entire world,
and it's over?

Just like that?
I don't think so.

I did not destroy Oa.

I simply moved it
to another dimension.

It was in my way.

Then could you move it back?

Done.

I can help you
on yourjourney

and your search
for meaning.

- Help me? Why?
- Because that is my purpose.

I accept your offer.

- Told you we'd beat 'em.
- What do you mean, "we?"

We have another guest, Inza.

Would you prepare
a place for him?

Of course. Welcome.

Are you alright?

Fine, although
there was a moment

when I actually thought
John Stewart

was going to attack me.

Oh, I don't know about that.

His bark's a lot worse
than his bite.
