All language subtitles for SUPERGIRL - S03 E05 - Damage (720p - AMZN Web-DL)

[Kara] My name is Kara Zor-El.

I am from Krypton, I am a
refugee on this planet.

I was sent to Earth
to protect my cousin.

But my pod got
knocked off-course

and by the time I got here,

my cousin had already grown
up and become Superman.

I hid who I really was

until one day when an accident forced
me to reveal myself to the world.

To most people, I'm a reporter
at CatCo Worldwide Media.

But in secret, I work with my
adoptive sister for the DEO

to protect my city
from alien life

and anyone else that
means to cause it harm.

I am Supergirl.

[Kara] Previously
on Supergirl...

One day soon, you will reign.

Maggie doesn't wanna have kids.

[crying] I wanna be a
mom, what am I gonna do?

[Lena] My daughter has
a way to save us.

It's a device that
my brother invented.

I think I can convert it to
irradiate the atmosphere with lead.

I could ruin you.

You are gonna so regret
the day you screwed me.

Because now, you have
all of my attention.

Ten and two. Watch the road.

- [crashing]
- [tires screech]

[grunting]

You come closer, your eyes
glow, you even flinch,

- and I open up his throat.
- No, you won't.

[grunting]

[groans]

Anyone else?

You holdin' up okay?

No.

It's happening tomorrow?

Yeah.

Mom, are you okay?

What? Yes.

Babe, of course. I'm fine.

I'm totally fine. It
was just a dream.

You were awake.

Ruby, I'm fine. It
was a migraine.

Look, we're up next.

Get your backpack.

- I love you.
- Love you, too.

- Bye.
- Have a good day. Bye.

Hey, did you get your
math homework done?

I couldn't get through it.

Well, there's still time before the
bell if you want me to help you.

- Yeah. That'd be...
- You okay?

Luke! Mom, help! [panting]

Mom! It's okay, it's okay.

It's okay.

Oh, please. It's
okay, it's okay.

Ms. Luthor, um, you approved
an advertorial on page six.

Is there a question coming?

Well, I...

[clears throat] I just wish
you would have told me first.

I didn't know ads were in
your purview, Mr. Olsen.

Well, they're... they're
not in my purview.

It's... it's not a big
deal, it's just that

if we're gonna disguise
ads as articles

I think that it sends
a bad message.

People wanna know what
they're getting, you know?

They expect integrity from us.

Just a perception thing.

70%.

- Excuse me?
- That's the deep discount

on our print subscription rate.
70%.

That's what it takes just
to get people to read.

So I think an advertorial here
and there is a necessary evil.

- [chuckles]
- [knock on door]

[Kara] Everything okay?

- Yeah.
- Absolutely. [Clears throat]

Good. Uh, James, I just came
in to check and see if...

Actually, I think you're
gonna wanna turn up the TV.

What is that scumbag
doing in my hospital?

[Morgan on TV] It
was a nightmare.

And we would've given anything
for it to end, am I right?

Then the Daxamites, the
ships just up and left.

You know why they left?

It was a lead-dispersal
bomb that drove 'em away.

I have a colleague
whose son was sick.

Brought him here. There were other children
in this hospital with the same symptoms.

The doctors told me that
there were other children

in still other hospitals

all displaying the
same symptoms.

Lead poisoning.

You know, it's fitting that
we're here, in this hospital.

Lena Luthor built the bomb that
poisoned these boys and girls.

[reporter] Do you
have any proof?

- [reporters clamoring]
- I've gotta get down there.

[Morgan] Keep it down.
Please respect the children.

Let's take it outside, I'll
answer your questions.

[door opens]

I was hoping you'd take
longer getting home.

I thought about it.

That's only gonna get harder.

I don't wanna feel like this.

- I love you.
- Yeah. I love you... I love you back.

I, uh...

[sighs] This can't be it. This is stupid.
This is...

We've talked this through.

- Right?
- Mmm-hmm.

I mean, for days.

Can you do that again? Can... can
you go another couple rounds?

Because I can't.

Are you ever gonna
wanna have kids?

[tearfully] I want you.

Yeah, I know, babe.

[softly] But I want kids.

I'm always gonna want kids.

Then there's nothing else left.

You have to say it.

Maggie...

You have to say it out loud.

Please?

[sighs]

We can't be together.

[sniffles]

[sniffles]

[woman speaks
indistinctly on PA]

[Kara] Sam?

- What are you doing here?
- Hey.

Luke, one of Ruby's friends,
collapsed this morning.

Lead poisoning.

I came with the paramedics,
his mom just got here.

I saw Edge's stunt, too.
This whole thing is awful.

-[Morgan] All right, where do I sign?
- Lena?

Where the hell do you get off?

Thank you.

That was me paying the end of the
medical expenses at your hospital.

So this is what your
revenge looks like?

Have you ever heard of
the cobra effect, Lena?

Colonial India, the
British government,

they realized there were
snakes all over Delhi.

They wanted them gone.

So they offered a
bounty for dead snakes.

And then they realized people
were breeding snakes for income.

They thought everything
was going really well.

They realized they got slithering
snakes all over Delhi.

The whole thing backfired.

Turns out they made
the problem worse.

You understand?

- You're a toxic predator.
- Unintended consequences.

You wanted to be a hero so bad
you didn't care who you hurt.

Now people are gonna die.

Even if all of this were true,

Supergirl would be
just as much to blame.

She made the call
to use that device.

Supergirl may have
pushed the button, sure,

but that tech was all Luthor.

- You're a bottom-feeder.
- But I didn't poison children.

That was you.

[woman on TV] Morgan Edge's
accusation of Lena Luthor...

Ms. Luthor, is there
anything I can get for you?

Call the CDC and get every report
they have on the outbreak.

I also need the victims'
medical reports

and I wanna see every bit of
data Morgan Edge has seen.

Right away. And,
uh, I'm so sorry.

There has to be
another explanation.

There could be hundreds
of other reasons

why these kids are getting
sick besides your device.

I mean, Edge is
manipulating people

to get revenge on you
for buying CatCo.

He's ruthless, Lena,
you know that.

Look, what if it's true, okay?

I told Supergirl that the lead in
the device was safe for humans.

She wouldn't have used
it if it wasn't safe.

Yes, but using it
saved all of us.

- [James] Ms. Luthor.
- Mr. Olsen.

Come to tell Kara
"I told you so"?

-[sighs] - Another Luthor takes
innocent lives, news at 11?

Ms. Luthor, despite
our differences,

I would hope by now that you
would recognize that I see you

as more than just an
extension of your brother.

However, I do think that you
should get ahead of this thing.

Which, in my opinion...

I think you should
step down from CatCo,

so whatever we
report, good or bad,

comes off as truthful.

No, that would look like
an admission of guilt.

[Lena] No, Kara, he's right.

Whatever's happening, whoever's
responsible, this is a public crisis.

And the public deserves to be
able to trust the reporting

so that they can
prepare themselves.

They expect integrity from us.

They deserve it, and they
need it now more than ever.

Mr. Olsen, you will run CatCo
until this is resolved,

and I think I should also
step down from L-Corp.

Lena, we need you. We need you
to help guide the research.

No, no, L-Corp has a brain trust
that's more than capable, okay?

If I'm involved, I could be
accused of covering things up,

or even profiting from the sick.
[Sighs]

This can't be like
Flint, Michigan, okay,

where bureaucracy
got in the way.

Helping people has
to be the focus.

Where is she? Where's
Lena Luthor?

Sir! Sir, please calm down.

I need to see her. She needs
to answer for my son.

You know he stopped breathing?

They had to put a
tube down his throat.

My boy is 12 years old.

He is supposed to be laughing,

outside playing, not
stuck in some hospital

with the doctors telling me
they don't know how to fix him.

You rich people, you think you
can do whatever you want,

that we don't matter.

My son matters.

- I am sorry. I...
- You're sorry?

You're gonna answer for
what you did to my son.

For what you did to all of them.

[shudders]

I want your best
reporter reporting this.

I'm not hiding anything.

Set a press conference
for later today.

[sighs]

[protesters chanting] Lock her up!
Lock her up!

Lock her up! Lock her up!

It's time, Ms. Luthor.

[chanting continues] Lock her up!
Lock her up!

Good afternoon.

I'm... I'm Lena Luthor.

-[indistinct shouting] - I know
a lot of you here are angry.

I... I hear you.

I would be, myself, if I felt
someone had poisoned my children.

So, my thoughts go out to
everyone who is afflicted.

I heard what Morgan Edge
told you this morning.

And I wish I was up here to
say something different,

but... the truth is, I don't
know if my device hurt children.

And until I do, I realize that
none of you can have faith in me.

[faint gun cocking]

Your faith is something I have
worked harder than you may realize

to keep, and the fact
that I might have lost it

breaks my heart.

And so,

until the investigation into
the poisonings is concluded,

I shall be stepping down from...

[gunshots]

- [crowd screaming]
- [James groans]

[crying]

[groaning]

Help! Somebody help me!

[Kara] James...

Jeez, if that bullet had a
little more stopping power,

your shoulder would be a mess.

Yeah. That's what
you said last time.

Edge riled them up, he
knew what he was doing.

The shooter just found out that her
son took a turn for the worse.

I'm not making any excuses,

but she just went after who
she thought was responsible.

What are you saying? You
still think that Lena

is responsible for
what's happening?

I'm not saying
that she did this,

I'm just saying that maybe this
happened because of what she did.

- Semantics.
- She jerry-rigged that device

to do something it was
never intended to do.

Look, I know you don't
wanna hear this,

but that device was
invented by Lex Luthor.

[stammers] Which is
why we're testing it.

Then let's test it.

Okay, so I sealed off the room
to contain the lead cloud.

We have some sensors that
will analyze the particulate.

So how will you know if
the device is the cause?

Okay, so when Lena and I crunched
the numbers during the invasion,

like, 99.96% of the molecules
bonded to Daxamite genes.

Which basically means that if it hits
a human, it evaporates. No harm done.

The rest, you know, 0.04%, we
chalked up to margin of error.

So as long as we get the same
number today, we're good.

- Okay. Hit it.
- Great.

[device powers up]

Okay. Anything?

No. Hold, please. It is...

- What?
- Whoo.

Winn, what's the percentage?

[clicks tongue] Um...

So there is a 10% chance
the device is the cause?

10.21.

Someone just...
[breathing shakily]

Someone just tried to kill me,

I shouldn't be putting
you and Ruby in danger.

That woman is in custody.

No one will be looking for
you here, you're safe.

So take your Louis Vuittons
off, relax, and chug this.

- Really isn't necessary.
- Stop it, you're dehydrated.

You could have been shot.

You shouldn't be hiding me.

You gave me a break when
I needed it the most.

Let me return the favor.

- One night.
- Great.

See, this is what
friends are for.

If Ruby was sick, would
you still be my friend?

♫ Sweetheart Would
you wake up today? ♫

♫ I promise you would
Recognize my face ♫

♫ I wanna show you...

- [beeps]
- [music stops]

[synth-pop music plays]

♫ All through the night

♫ I'll be awake And
I'll be with you ♫

♫ Oh, all through
The night today ♫

♫ Knowing that we feel The
same without saying ♫

♫ We have no past We
won't reach back ♫

♫ Keep with me forward
All through the night ♫

♫ And once we start
The meter clicks ♫

♫ And it goes running
All through the night ♫

♫ Until it ends
There is no end ♫

[glass shatters]

Lena?

Hey.

Hey, look, I made a metaphor.

Are you here alone?

Sam's running my company,
Ruby's at a friend's.

- What news from the front?
- Nothing yet.

You know,

you're terrible at
hiding things from me.

[scoffs] I wouldn't
be so sure of that.

[glass shards rattle]

[sighs] I came to let you
know that I'm not done.

Not by a long shot.

Until we know for sure, I will
turn over every rock, and...

Just stop.

You are one of the
strongest women I know,

why aren't you fighting?

Because I did it.

Kara, I did it.

You know, all I ever
wanted to be was good.

My whole life I was a pariah.

First, because I was rich,

and because of my brother, so...

And then, finally I did

just... just one thing,
one thing that was good,

and now I'm the monster that
poisons children. [chuckles]

You know, even Lex
Luthor never did that.

Anyone who knows you knows
that you would never...

Maybe I'm the same.
People are sick.

It's my fault.

There's still a
chance it wasn't you.

I know you believe that
everything is good,

and kind, and that

is one of the things
I love about you.

But that's not the real world.

In the real world, my
last name is bin Laden

and everything I
do hurts people.

Hey, you know, it's...
it's in my DNA, okay?

So, please, just... just...
just stop.

Stop believing me, okay?

I am not worth it.

Hey.

- Hey.
- Thanks for staying.

Yeah. She didn't
want me to, but...

You know, I've known Lena a long time
and I've never seen her like this.

She wants everyone to
think she's so tough.

- Yeah, but she is mush on the inside.
-[chuckles]

Hey, uh, if you wanna go
home, I can sit with her.

No, it's totally fine. I've actually
been having trouble sleeping, so...

- Me, too. Bad dreams.
- Yeah, I got those, too.

Okay, what's this?

I've just been trying to
skim through public records

to get info on the
families affected.

I've been doing the same thing.

Um, the medical team at L-Corp

was able to secure the addresses
for all the sick children.

So what happens when
you connect the Xs?

Nothing. The movies lie.

Usually, when something
like this happens,

those affected are
from a specific area,

but these kids are from
all over the city.

Luke, who I saw this
morning at Ruby's school,

he lives down the street.
But then there are two kids

who live across the city and
go to Burgon Country Day.

And then there's another one who
lives all the way in Edgemont.

I just... Staring at this,
trying to make sense of it.

There's gotta be some way
these kids are connected.

Social media, school
records, bank statements,

maybe there's a link?

Bank statements. Let's
follow the money.

Yes. I'll make a call.

You don't have to. I'm on it.

[Kara] How did you...

[chuckles]

I can see why Lena likes you.

- [Sam] Hmm.
- Delaney's Dumpling Truck.

Food truck? What about it?

Well, Luke's dad and another
mom went there on the same day

a couple of weeks
ago, October 21st.

Maybe... maybe it's
just coincidence.

No. Hold on.

They were all there.

Could it be something
in the food?

Oktoberfest at Frances Park.

Could be something there.

[pants]

[sighs]

- What are we doing?
- [chuckles softly]

- I know, that was crazy.
- [both laugh]

No, I mean, what are we doing?

Are you sure you wanna
give up on this?

You sure you wanna do this?

Give up on something
tangible and real...

us, it's us...

for some notion you
have of being a mom?

It's not some notion.

Ever since I was little...

when I would see a
mom and her kids...

this thing would happen to me.

You know, it's... It's...

recognition that I was
gonna be a mom, too.

And it wasn't some,
you know, I...

"Oh, I... I want it.
I want that,"

or "I hope someday
that I have that."

No, it's just...

something that
I've always known.

Even when everything else,

whether it was boyfriend,
girlfriend, whatever,

when... when that was blurry...

the part of me being a mom,

that's always been
crystal clear.

If I deny that...

I'm gonna feel it forever.

I wish I could change
the way I feel.

Yeah. Me, too.

So many vendors and rides here,

it could have been anything.
For all we know, it's gone.

Unless it wasn't
something outside.

- It's locked.
- Huh.

It was a sticky hinge.

Eliza used to bring me
to a place like this.

Who's Eliza?

My adoptive mom.

Every Tuesday and Thursday.

- You're adopted? So am I.
- [chuckles] Really?

Except for my place was
Mondays and Wednesdays.

Gosh, we really loved swimming.

Every kid loves swimming.

I'm gonna test the pool.

You're gonna test it?

I have a friend at the FBI
who helps me on stories.

Tests stuff, lab work.

That's a good friend to have.

- Winn?
- Yo, what is going on?

I'm gonna send you a water
sample from a public pool.

[Winn chuckles] Really?

You know what, when I made that
device, J'onn tried to tell me

that no one was ever gonna use
it and I said to him, I said,

"J'onn, one day, someone's gonna
need to take a sample on the go."

Here we... Oh, we got it.

- Is it lead?
- Oh, my God.

What?

Um, this is an advanced hydromorphic
carbon nitrate compound.

- What does that mean?
- It's a synthetic compound

that, when combined with water,

exhibits the exact
same properties as,

you guessed it, lead, and
if someone's exposed to it,

the exact same symptoms
as lead poisoning.

So, it wasn't the lead bomb.

No. No, it wasn't.

[sighs] Thank you.

It wasn't Lena. Someone put a dangerous
chemical compound in the pool.

- How?
- I...

Come with me.

[cell phone ringing]

- Hello?
- Lena?

Sam and I are at this pool and all the
kids who got sick have been here.,

- I thought I told you to stop.
- It wasn't you.

What?

There's a synthetic chemical,

when it touches water it
becomes toxic to the body.

It mimics the same symptoms
as lead poisoning.

Well, how... how did it
get in the swimming pool?

It's in the chlorine containers.

They've been using it
instead of chlorine.

Sam and I are gonna try to track down
the manufacturer. Acre Lee Chemical.

- Acre Lee Chemical?
- Yeah, you know it?

No. No.

Thank you, both of you.

[door opens]

Lena.

You look horrible.

Those sick kids really got
you tied up in a knot, huh?

- Acre Lee.
- Acre what?

Acre Lee. Acre Lee,
that's where the coyote

gets all the stuff that he's gonna use
to kill the roadrunner from, right?

It's a company you own.

I remembered it from due diligence
before I invested in your buildings.

Established in 1982, manufactures
hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide

and also simple chlorine
used for swimming pools.

Acquired by Edge Global
seven years ago.

[stammers] I'd have to check
my records, you know.

You used it to poison
kids in swimming pools

in order to drag my
name through the mud.

[chuckles] Come on.

That's it? That's what you're bringing?
That's what you got?

I say you did it,
you say I did it?

I expected better out of you.

[inhales sharply] Now
that's a disappointment.

When that mom shot at me, I knew
she was doing the right thing.

Because whoever was
responsible for this,

they deserve to die.

No trial, no jury.

Just erased from the world.

You need help, Lena,

'cause you're not... you're
not thinking clearly.

I'm thinking like a Luthor.

[grunts]

[gasps]

[rattling]

Hello?

Hello?

[engine whirring]

That's right, Lena,

who the heck is
flying this plane?

We never turned the "fasten
seat belts" sign off, did we?

Give her a little turbulence.

Yes, sir.

[turbulence]

Mayday, Mayday, this
is Lena Luthor.

Jam the transmission.

I'm in a cargo plane headed
directly to the reservoir.

They're gonna dump
chemicals in the water.

Sir, receiving word that there's an
unidentified aircraft in our airspace.

- Alien?
- No, it's a C-130 cargo plane.

Not on the FAA fly list.

Did you contact the Air Force?

Not yet, sir. But we
have a message fragment.

- Distress call.
- What distress call?

[Demos] I'm pulling it up.

-[Lena] Mayday, Mayday, this is...
-[static crackling]

Mayday, Mayday, this is...

It's Lena.

[Morgan] Initiate
release sequence.

Bring the plane
up three degrees.

Release isn't working. I
can't dump the payload.

- She's closed the ramp.
- Only one thing left to do.

- Crash the plane.
- Are you sure?

Crash the plane!

The barrels are treated
to dissolve in water.

If the plane crashes,
they'll poison everyone.

Strap in!

[grunting]

- [beeping]
- It's not going down.

Oh... Yes, it will. Get up,
get up, get up, get up.

I'm gonna get them
to blow the engines!

[beeping]

[Lena screaming]

I can't hold both!

Save the chemicals! Not me.

No, I'm not gonna drop you!

- Let me go.
- No!

[grunting and straining]

Climb, Lena. Climb!

You can do it! Come on!
[straining]

Come on! Come on, you can do it!

You have to jump, now!

[beeping]

What do we do?

Well, you shoot the console.

- What was that for?
- Just needed a little gunshot residue

on your hands.

No.

[car lock chirps]

[Supergirl] Poisoning innocent children
for your vendetta against Lena Luthor?

It's even lower than I
expected of you, Edge.

You know, I sold Acre Lee
Chemical over two years ago.

- Convenient.
- Besides, I heard they found the guy.

Yeah, he was some crazed,
lone wolf, former Marine,

Air Force, he had a bone
to pick with her family.

It's too bad he killed himself,

'cause we could have
brought him to justice.

Hmm.

- Too bad.
- You know, I was thinking...

he must have really hated her.

Do you ever wonder
what that feels like?

That kinda hate.

Because I don't think
you're capable of it.

You have no idea what
I am capable of.

Is this about me now?

Because when you got mad at me,
you dumped me on a cargo ship

in the middle of the sea.

What a hassle. It
cost me a few hours.

Thirty bucks in dry cleaning.

I don't know what kind
of hippy-dippy justice

you practiced on your
planet, sweetheart,

but this is the real world.

It's dog-eat-dog out here.

Now, if I had an enemy,

I'd crush her without mercy.

Let's say, for instance,
I was your enemy, hmm?

The thing for you to do right
now would be to kill me.

But you capes, you don't
have what it takes.

Do you?

Yeah. I didn't think so.

You can leave the
way you came in.

I think the cleaning
crew enjoyed the show.

Mr. Olsen, I didn't
expect you to be here.

Well, the news never sleeps.

How are you, really?

I was worried about you.

Well, I'm kind of a hard man
to keep down, Ms. Luthor.

You know, I have a rule.

Whenever anyone takes a bullet for
me, they get to call me Lena.

[chuckles]

Okay, well, Lena it is.

And, uh, my friends
call me James.

Or Jimmy.

Well, feel better, Jimmy Olsen.

[breathes deeply]

That's everything.

You sure you have
a place to stay?

Yeah, I have a friend
who's letting me crash.

Good. That's good.

You know, I didn't, uh...

I didn't know I had
it in me to be happy.

Or to be accepting of myself.

I never would have gotten...
[sobs]

I never would have
gotten here without you.

You made me deal
with my own stuff.

Confronted my past.

Stopped covering up the things
I didn't wanna look at.

[voice breaking] I'm strong...
I'm stronger for it, you know.

I'm really grateful, thank you.
[sniffles]

- Can I?
- Yeah, you can.

See you around, Danvers.

Yeah, see you, Maggs.

[sniffles]

You're gonna be a great mom.

[door closes]

[sighs]

[sobbing]

- Thank you.
- [Sam] Good news.

The antidote L-Corp
synthesized is working,

- the kids are getting better.
- [sighs]

Thank God.

- [Sam] Thank you.
- [sighs]

You guys, I need to say thank
you for not giving up on me

and not letting me
give up on myself.

Well, I think Kara and I
made a pretty good team.

Uh, more than pretty good,
if I do say so myself.

[laughs]

I... I probably also should
apologize to you, I mean...

- I'm lucky you're still speaking to me.
-[Kara] Hey.

When you're family, you can
say what you need to say

and the people that love
you still will love you.

That's right.

I've never had anyone
like that in my life.

That's because you've
never had a sister.

[chuckles]

- Two. Two sisters.
- Aw!

- Aw!
- Aw, it's too much.

[all chuckling]

- [cell phone ringing]
- Oh, hang on.

Alex?

[music playing]

[Alex sighs]

You remember when you
said that, uh...

if I lost Maggie, that I
would be at a bar drinking?

That I would be broken?

Score one for the
girl from Krypton.

[kisses]

J'onn, this is Kara.

You're gonna have to
get by at the DEO

without Alex and I for
a couple of days.

Yeah.

We are going back to your place
and you're gonna pack a bag.

Where are we going?

We're going home.

Luke's gonna be okay?

Yeah, baby, he's gonna be okay.

I really like your friends.

You know what?

I like 'em, too.

But I like you more.

There's a hole in your shirt.

That's weird.

- I love you.
- Love you.
