Every moment of your life is a test.

One that reveals who you are.

And if you truly are worthy
of the name Zod,

you will follow in the footsteps
of those who have come before you,

or you will die trying.

If you didn't know Brainiac
had corrupted the Voice of Rao,

then why even attempt a coup?

Because Daron-Vex offered to spare
your life in exchange for my help.

- Stop!
- And I would do it again.

Hello, Father.

I came to tell you
that I forgive you.

For what you tried to do to me.

Black Zero is in.

They want something in return.

There he is.

My old friend, Daron-Vex.

We have a lot of catching up to do.

Ona!

What's wrong?

- Rao.
- Through fire, we are reborn.

I learnt of the pre-cataclysm
instrument of violence so powerful,

it will give Brainiac pause.

That thing in there,
they told me it's called Doomsday.

If you let that thing loose,

it will kill everything
that it comes across.

It's true.

That's why we have given
over our lives

to protecting the universe
from Doomsday.

What does this alien want?

To rip this city right
from the ground

and add it to his collection.

You didn't really think
the Voice of Rao was of God, did you?

Why kill the chancellor
and the others?

All I can say is there's gonna be
a lot more bodies

if we don't find him.

Look, I can't risk being up here
any longer.

Just have your Sagitari...

You mean what's left of the Sagitari.

They're already spread too thin.

It means that the Council
are either dead or in hiding.

The Primus has turned traitor.

Black Zero is openly walking
the streets.

I can't help you.

- Are you Black Zero?
- All of you, out of here!

Everyone!
Do us a favor and go back inside.

It's not safe out here. Go on! Move!

You all try to move out of here!

Get them out of here.

Oh, you got something for me, eh?

No! No!

We have to go back!

Whoa!

It's chaos out there.

I know. And it's getting worse.

Pretty soon people are gonna
figure out that no one's in charge.

And the whole city
is gonna descend into anarchy.

Making it even harder
to find the Voice.

Three days of searching and nothing.

Nyssa said they found a trail
of mangled bodies

leaning out of the Tower of Justice.

She's there now,
she's trying to find out more.

Were you with her?

We need to find him, Lyta.
We need to find him.

And stop him from bringing Brainiac
here.

We will.

And we'll make him pay
for what he's done.

How's Dev?

I... I managed to get him in med-bay.

He's recovering.

Itching to get back in the fight.

Good.

We're gonna need him.

And a whole lot more just like him.

Seg, I know losing Ona
was hard for Kem.

They're sending him
to Kryptonopolis...

was that to help him or to help you?

I'm worrying that you're starting
to think this fight we're in,

that maybe we can't win it.

Is that what you think?

Everything that Adam said...

about my grandson, about the Els,
about who we are...

who we're meant to be.

He believed that I could save
the universe...

and I couldn't even save him.

I've lost too many people already,
Lyta.

I can't lose anyone else.

You're not gonna lose me.

You cannot stop me.

I am coming for you and your world.

That's a lot of hardware.

The Voice of Rao is wounded.

And like all wounded animals,
this is when they are most dangerous.

No one's seen him. He's in hiding.

It's not him we're going after.

The fall in the Genesis Chamber
didn't kill the Voice.

The only way to fight something
that cannot be killed

is with a weapon that is unkillable.

We're going to get Doomsday.

Look how far you've fallen,
old friend.

The same could be said for you,
Sela-Sonn.

How does one transition...

from one of the most respected

and highly regarded members
of the Science Guild

protégé of the great Val-El,
nonetheless,

to leader of an insurgency whose only
currency is death and destruction.

It started with a betrayal.

From someone I trusted.

You think I didn't know?

That you'd cover your tracks so well,
I wouldn't follow them back to you?

That's no excuse.

You dedicated your life
to saving lives,

not destroying them.

That was a long time ago.

And all my work trying to ease
people's suffering

gave me keen insight
into how to inflict it.

I have a lot of questions for you,
Daron.

And I intend to get answers.

And my name is Jax-Ur now.

- Move.
- Zod.

Move! Get out of here!

Move it, you two. All of it!

Lyta has disappeared.

So is Zod.

With far more firepower
than one man can handle.

And with one of Black Zero's
skimmers.

They're going for Doomsday.

And to think you're all expecting me
to screw you guys over.

I realized this wasn't easy for you
going against Seg.

And I understand
why you admire his idealism.

But ideals are no good to the dead.

It was sheer luck that he survived
that blast in the tavern.

Get to the point.

It's up to us
to save him and everyone else.

And the only way we can do that
is by making the hard choices.

Even ones as extreme as unleashing
Doomsday.

But how can we be sure?

You said Doomsday is a genetically
engineered killing machine

that can't be controlled.

He functions like any apex predator,

focusing on the most formidable
opponent first.

That's Brainiac.

Great. Now after that, he'll work
his way down the food chain.

That's us.

Before that happens,
we turn him to stasis.

We're risking a lot on being able
to pull that off.

That's Seg talking.

Don't think of this as a betrayal.

You and I, we're Zods.

Duty bound to protect our people
by any means necessary.

Seg's an El,
he will never understand that.

But at least
he'll be alive to forgive you.

So how are you planning
on getting inside?

I'd like to know that too.

And all that firepower
isn't gonna get you in there.

You need a Zod and an El.

And I won't do it.

I don't need you to.

Lyta, you once asked
if I knew who my father was.

At the time, I didn't.

But I do now.

House of Zod.

House of El.

You're both.

You're my son.

Where is it?

Seg, if you know something...

Doomsday is already
far beyond your reach.

I've made sure of that.

You knew.

It was your mother who convinced me.

She knew that Zod would come for it.

I just never thought
that you'd help him do it.

You couldn't have moved it far.

I will find it.

We like to believe
you're a few steps ahead, General.

But it turns out I know these tunnels
better than you do.

How else do you think
we beat you here?

When you snuck away
in the middle of the night.

Then you have sealed Krypton's fate.

Careful.

Seg, come in.

Go ahead.

We have a problem.

Admit it, Daron.

Admit what you did
and this pain will end.

I didn't do anything.

Exactly.

I trusted you.

I told you of my fears
and you did nothing.

You were the one who restored
the Codex technology.

What did you think
was gonna happen?

Without my work on the Codex,

the Genesis Chamber
would have become unsustainable,

and we would have lost our only means
of reproduction.

Only if your intentions
were so noble...

why is your work shrouded
in such secrecy?

Because I knew
that in the wrong hands,

it could be used
to purify the Guilded bloodlines.

We doubt those viewed us weaker.

I just never could have imagined
you would be the one to betray me.

Back then, the only people I trusted
were you and Val-El.

And when you sentenced him
to death...

I knew I was next.

But that's not the worst of it,
is it, Daron?

You had to take it one step further.

Yes, I know about the Vara protocol.

And now you are going to tell me
how to access it.

Why have we stopped?

What's happening?

Raika, what's going on?

The containment field.

It is failing.

What do you mean failing?

He thinks we damaged it
when we moved it.

This is all that keeps
the beast inside.

How long do we have?

It is ancient technology,
it could be days or weeks.

Or maybe hours.

One thing is certain.

The beast will break free
of his tomb.

Now I know why growing up,
my mother never spoke of her mother.

The shame she must have felt.

Your willingness to betray everything
the House of Zod stands for.

I'm fighting for a better Kandor.

You and I can restore order
to Kandor.

I'll reclaim my role as Primus
of the Sagitari,

and with you by my side,
we can rebuild our city,

return it to what it once was.

Not the Kandor he wants to create,
a place ruled by fear.

How can you say that?

All my life, all you have done
is made me afraid.

Afraid that I wasn't good enough.

That I wasn't strong enough.

That I wasn't worthy of the Zod name.

I have failed you,
in so many ways, Lyta.

I tried to mold you
into a hardened warrior,

tried to drive out your love for Seg,

your refusal to follow orders
you disagreed with.

I saw your constant questioning
as a weakness.

And now I see
it's your greatest strength.

Don't lose it now
when you need it most.

Because you're gonna have
to make a choice.

- Grandpa, come in, do you read me?
- Yes.

What's wrong?

It's not, by any chance,
programmed by real grandpa

with a working knowledge of ancient
Kryptonian technology way, were you?

Like say you had to repair the
containment field on a capsule design

to hold a genetic experiment
gone horribly wrong.

No, but I'd be willing to try.

Well, that's confidence inspiring.

Would you like me
to divert my efforts

from determining the proximity
of Brainiac's ship?

Has it arrived in our system yet?

No, but it's only a matter of time.

Then let's concentrate on problems
closer at home first.

Thank you, old friend.

You've been very helpful.

Wait!

There's one more secret...

I didn't divulge to your leader.

And what would that be?

One that could make you
one of the richest man in Kandor.

The location of the Voice of Rao's
cache of untraceable solars.

You can't buy me.

Perhaps, you just haven't been
offered the right price.

Think of your family.

All you could do for them.

I have no family.

They died in the Xarxas outbreak.

All the medication was rationed
to the Guilded.

It was not a quick death.

So, unless you can bring them back,
you have nothing I could want.

Please, please, you have to help me.

Now, look at your heart,
I'm begging you.

You can't let me die here.

No, please! I'll do anything.
Anything!

Just please, please let me...

Please, please!

Please, you can't leave me in here!

Please!

Please, help me!

I can't die here in this place.

Let's ask Raika about the fastest way
to the surface.

I'm gonna go with the skimmer.

Or we could not do that.

- What are you doing?
- Hold it.

It is time for my people
to rid themselves of this burden.

We will take the creature
to your city.

And risk the lives of everyone
in Kandor.

You can't be serious.

Look, you'll never get it
through the outlands.

This catacombs contain many secrets,
even the tunnel to your city.

And when the Collector of Worlds
comes for Kandor,

he will take Doomsday along with it.

And my people will be free
of their duty.

And Krypton will be free
of the threat

from that foul creature.

That's not going to happen.

We're going to stop Brainiac.

You cannot even stop your own people
from trying to take the beast.

How will you defeat
an alien conqueror?

You will fail, Seg-El.

Listen to me.

If Brainiac is allowed
to take Kandor,

then eventually all of Krypton
will be destroyed as a result.

Eventually?

We're guaranteed destruction
far sooner

if we do not rid ourselves
of this scourge.

You saved my life once.

And for that I will allow both of you
to leave this place alive.

But try to stop us,
and you will die where you stand.

I'm done wasting time.

Are you really going to shoot me?

Take one step further and find out.

Then do it.

Better that than stand here
doing nothing

with our a planet facing destruction.

Mother, stop. Please don't do this.

No.

Very well.

You say you intend to restore Kandor

and reclaim your position
as Primus of the Sagitari.

Well, so do I.

Jayna-Zod,

I, Dru-Zod, hereby invoke
the spirit of Jo-Mon,

and our ancient traditions
in challenging you

to a Kandorian duel.

For the loser,
no mercy will be shown.

I accept.

Mother.

You're being quiet
because you're coming up with a plan.

The Voice of Rao is still helping
Brainiac get here to take Kandor.

Which now has a genetically
engineered killing machine

ready to break through of its cage
somewhere underneath it.

You know, we can take a skimmer.

Make a break for Argo City.

If you're planning on joining

the rapidly swelling ranks
of people screwing me over,

I'd appreciate it
if you just got it over with.

I'm not Lyta.

I believe in you.

Maybe you shouldn't.

Mercy.

You sell skimmers, right?

I want the fastest one you have.

One that won't be picked up
by any of the city's scanners.

One that I am prepared
to pay you a great deal for.

In fact, it could make you
one of the richest man in Kandor.

Adam should've given this
to someone else.

He shouldn't have given his life
for mine.

But he chose you.

Yeah, well, you met Adam.

Not to speak ill of the dead, but...

he wasn't exactly the brightest star
in the sky.

I mean, he picked a guy...

whose only accomplishment
is having his grandson,

who I'll never meet,

who does something great one day.

Becomes a hero.

Becomes this...

Superman.

Do you know the origins
of the Els' sigil?

It comes from an ancient
Kryptonian word

that means hope.

Our house wasn't just given
that symbol.

Our ancestors chose it.

The generations to follow defined it.

Not through words...

but through action.

As long as there is an El
on Krypton,

there will be hope.

And hope...

can be a powerful weapon.

Get away from me.

- How dare you?
- What?

Intervening in a Kandorian duel.

I saved you.

You stole my honor.

How would you like
to be buried with it?

You talk about making hard choices.
Well, I have made one.

Forget her.

We have to go.

What is it?

Daron-Vex escaped.

Fled in a skimmer.

He could be halfway through
the outlands by now.

Ever the survivor.

Still can't reach Jayna.

We need to get through to her.

She's the one best suited to tracking
down the Cythonnites and Doomsday.

And the other problem?

I'm thinking about that too.

We never knew why the Voice
was draining power

from the Genesis Chamber.

But I think I know now.

And if I'm right, Brainiac will
be here sooner than we thought.

What if he needs it
to power Brainiac's ship?

Bring it here?

He's probably looking
for another source.

But where else would he get
that kind of power?

Grandpa?

There's only one option.

The generator that powers
the city's protective dome.

And then that's where
we'll make our stand.

We're gonna need help.

This could be our last chance
to save Kandor.

You want me to commit
few remaining Sagitari.

We have left to work
alongside terrorists.

Never.

They have hunted us, executed us,
forced us underground,

and now you want us to turn
to our oppressors for help?

At the very moment,
when we've gained a foothold.

That foothold's about to be ripped
from under you.

And it will happen.

Brainiac is coming
and he will take Kandor.

Unless, we declare a truce.

And combine our forces to put an end
to this threat to our world.

All right. But when this is over
we will round up Black Zero,

and take back the city.

We will shatter the guilds.

Strip the rank of their power,

and we will return Kandor
to its people.

Or maybe, instead of both sides
killing each other,

we can use this as a chance
to build a better tomorrow.

You sound like your grandfather.

But don't forget
which side had him executed.

Jayna.

Jayna.

Daron-Vex, manual override.

Pass code.

Hantha, Flamebird, Rokan, Oregus.

Two, nine, seven, one, eight.

Pass code accepted.

Initiate Varo protocol.

What are they?

Clones...

of the most elite ranked houses.

For what?

For the people who have everything
can hold onto it.

Forever.

With our combined forces
we can defeat him.

But it will come at a cost.

I know that we all have
our differences here.

But we only have one city...

and a common enemy
who wants to take it from us.

So let's walk together.

Let's hit the Voice of Rao
with everything that we've got.

I don't take orders from you.

I don't take orders from you either.

Or you.

It wasn't so much an order
as a common sense suggestion.

Now you do what you have to do.

But I'm going.

Look, if this goes badly...

and there's every indication
that it will...

I want you to take this.

You go to the Fortress,
you tell Val to shut everything down,

and you take that skimmer
to Argo City.

Are you sure you wouldn't rather me
to take a blaster?

I need you to do this.

You're the only one that I can trust.

Unit one in position.

Unit two in position.

Unit three in position.

Let's go.

Fascinating.

Opposing forces with nothing
in common

but their obsession with power.

One hoping to cling to it,
the other to seize it.

Now united against me.

But tell me, does your fear of me

outweigh your fear of each other?

- What are you doing?
- It's not me! I swear!

Guns down! Guns down!

Guns down!

Such weak minds.

Polluted by fear and hatred,

so easily manipulated.

Go on.

I know you want to.

You did what you had to do.

If we don't find Doomsday,
this is all have been for nothing.

Maybe not.

Doomsday was the only way
I could see to destroy Brainiac,

but then maybe someone
who has another way.

Who?

Val-El.

Val-El died 14 cycles ago.

No, he didn't.

You think I'm responsible for this?

All I did was offer an opportunity
for them to express their truth.

So easy when the desire is so strong.

Now, come closer.

Interesting.

That you,
a being of no apparent significance,

are the cause of so much trouble.

A shame.

You would have been quite surprised.

If I'm being 100 percent honest,

I really didn't expect that
to happen.

You all right?

Shouldn't you be on that skimmer
to Argo City?

We have to go.

We have to go.

Krypton, your world is mine.
