(female narrator) Previously on "Green Lantern"..

There are Lanterns dying out there!

We need to get out there and stop

who ever is targeting them.

Now!

Hal Jordan of Earth

soon to be former Green Lantern of Sector 2814.

You are now charged with treason, grand theft and--

Let's postpone my lynching until I tell you a couple of things.

You see these handsome devils?

They're the Lantern killers you said didn't exist.

'Call themselves Red Lanterns.'

Ring any bells?

Red Lanterns, are you sure?

He has concocted this ruse to save himself

from a deserved punishment.

Respectfully, sir.

I got an aching jaw that says they ain't no ruse.

Their Power Rings fire some sort of red energy tha--

They have Rings? Powered by what?

Best guess, a huge desire to mash us all into pulp.

I say we high tail it back to Oa.

Cram the Interceptor with as many GL's as she'll hold

ultra-warp back and kick their red butts

until they're black and blue!

Despite the colorful terminology a logical course of action.

(Aya) 'Sensors have picked up an unmanned probe'

'sweeping the area.'

'Markings match the insignia'

'of the recently encountered hostiles.'

Right. Red Lanterns.

Aya, plot intercept course. It's go time.

Hal Jordan of Earth, do not terminate this communication--

Sorry, gotta take this, don't be a stranger.

[instrumental music]

This threat may turn out to be nothing more

than a few extremists.

If the truth does come out

many will wonder why it isn't recorded in the book of Oa.

Because, Sayd, the history is written, or unwritten

by the victors.

Forget about snaring it, just blast it!

pew pew pew

pew pew pew

(Aya) 'Warning! Shield degrading.'

[intense music]

[grunts]

Hal, break off! Stick to the plan.

We go for reinforcements, then come back!

We can't let this thing give away our position!

What position? We're goin' home!

The Red Lanterns caught you with your pants down back

on that rock and you want payback!

pew boom

(Aya) 'Direct hit to port ampoules. Shield's degrading to critical.'

'Please do not let that happen again.'

Get ready to fire when I clear that rock.

[instrumental music]

Peek-a-boo.

pew

boom

Happy?

That felt good!

A probe like that means the Red Lanterns are more

than two killers with rings and a symbol.

They're organized.

Yeah. Well, looks like we can't hog all the fun.

Let's hit HQ and load up the boys like we planned.

Aya, take us home.

(Aya) 'Arching ultra-warp drives.'

'Ready in three, two, one.'

'Impel.'

[instrumental music]

- Are we there yet? - Aya, what happened?

(Aya) 'Overload due to hairline crack in the ultra-warp coil.'

'Most likely caused by last missile hit by enemy probe.'

For the record, she said most likely. Not totally likely.

What does that mean?

It means we're gonna be a little late to Oa.

That's okay, I like to make an entrance.

Aya, please estimate time for repairs.

(Aya) 'Calculating.'

'Ultra-warp ready in nine point two..'

Nine minutes, no problem!

(Aya) 'Nine point two one months.'

Okay.

Can we form a construct and replace the defective

part for the ride home?

(Aya) 'The construct would have to be an exact copy'

'of the ultra-warp coil mechanism.'

'And it's 56 moving parts to within'

'a 0.8162 microns tolerance.'

Can either of you do that?

I make hammers.

Look, maybe it's for the best.

The Guardians won't deal with the problem like we will.

We'll make those Red Lanterns pay.

Is he alright?

Just a little light headed.

He's taken a beating.

He needs a real doctor, he's not makin' nine hours

never mind nine months!

I was kinda lookin' forward to seein' Oa.

Aya, scan for the nearest inhabited world.

Preferably one with a hospital.

Don't bother. I know my own sector anywhere.

We're not far from my home colony.

Sounds like a good place to lay low for a while

and get you fixed up.

[instrumental music]

beep beep beep

boom

[instrumental music]

You had three Green Lanterns

in your grasp, and let them escape?

Perhaps you're not wholly committed

to our righteous crusade.

I live to serve the mighty Atrocitus.

Your will is the core of my very being.

What good is that to me Zilius Zox

if you're not competent to kill a mere three Green Lanterns?

It was this child's fault!

He's been promoted too quickly, and on false grounds!

He pitied them! The destroyers of our system!

What do you have to say for yourself, Razer?

Zox lies, but these Lanterns were different

from those we eliminated before.

Tougher. Better trained.

How could they know already?

- Who my lord? - The Guardians of Oa!

If they've sent reinforcements

then your failure may jeopardize my plans!

No! They must be destroyed!

They must die for Shard, all for you and Shard, master!

That's right Zilius. Shard is sacred ground.

A piece of the remains of our world which

'the Guardians attempted to erase from the universe.'

They did not succeed then, and will not today!

'Look.'

It seems one of my hunter killer drones found the Green Lanterns.

Your "hunter killer drone" isn't much on the killer part, is it?

The drone's attack was a feint.

It's actual goal was to plant a tracker which will

'lead us to them.'

And then we'll draw out

these Guardian lapdogs and destroy them.

Wherever they may hide.

[instrumental music]

Don't be such a baby.

Very handy to have a doctor for a wife.

Medicine is something I picked up

because of my husband's second job.

She's actually the colony's head geologist.

I was an engineer, that was how we met.

Beata's the genius who dreamed up

using the volcano's lava for thermal power.

So was that your secret identity, engineer?

Secret what?

That's Hal's hang-up, that thing on his face, it's a mask.

He wears it in case some Earthling sneaks onto

the Interceptor, while we're in space, mind you, and goes..

"Aha! The Green Lantern on my planet is Hal Jordan!

I'm tellin' everyone!"

[laughing]

Ha ha.

Talk to me when your planets invents

Paparazzi and the 24-hour news cycle.

(Amala) 'Daddy!'

Wait. Who is this giant?

What have you done with my daughter Amala?

I am Amala!

Now, now. Time for hugs later. Let daddy rest.

Bye, daddy!

[instrumental music]

This is some place.

'Kinda reminds me of where I grew up.'

Bolovax Vik.

I'm sorry. Even here we heard about it's destruction.

Your planet was destroyed? I-I never knew. How did..

Just concentrate on gettin' us out

of this mess you made, hotshot.

(Aya) 'Attention!'

'I have found a tracking device on the interceptor's hull'

'and require assistance removing it.'

beep beep beep

Do you think they..

Yeah. Pretty sure they do.

[dramatic music]

- Whoa! - What is it?

This colony now enjoys

the protection of the Red Lantern Corps.

You have been liberated from the tyranny of the Guardians.

'But their Green Lantern lackeys are here.'

You have one solar hour to bring these war criminals to us

or your planet will be vaporized.

[instrumental music]

Those murdering Red--

We have to turn ourselves over to them.

- Shyir, no! - We don't have a choice!

These guys are murderers.

They're gonna blow up this rock no matter what you do!

We do have a choice.

We can fight them and keep fighting

until we can't fight anymore.

That thing is a fortress.

A frontal attack would be suicide.

Hey, if you've got another way, I'm all ears

but we've got to take that thing out!

The Earth-Man is right, we must go!

Shyir, wait!

I have another way!

[instrumental music]

Time's up! Shall I initiate the countdown to detonation?

No. Razer will do it.

Atrocitus, our cause is right and just.

But, to kill innocents..

As I told you master, he's weak! Weak.

The Guardians and their lapdogs destroyed my home world.

And Zilius's. And countless others.

By making an example of these disloyal few

we save millions later.

Show weakness now and you doom our people forever.

I am not weak. I am not a coward.

For the greater good. And vengeance !

(automated) 'Countdown sequence initiated.'

'You have five minutes to get to minimum'

'safe orbital distance.'

(Hal) 'Knock, knock!'

Anybody home?

Zox, come!

Razer, stay and guard the device.

If attacked, do your duty.

[instrumental music]

Soon your Ring will be all that's left of you Lantern!

swish swish swish

Settle down, demented beach ball.

[instrumental music]

I am Atrocitus.

Lord and master of the Red Lantern Corps.

I am the one who will

destroy the Guardians and all they stand for.

I am wrath!

I am hate!

I am righteous vengeance!

bam

According to Beata's map, we're right under it.

Boy, I hope she is right about this. I'm bakin' here!

She's always right.

This way!

That must be the control panel.

You think you can disarm it, Rev?

I'll need a few minute..

zoop

Aah!

Die, die, die!

zoop zoop zoop

whoosh

Aah!

Hurry up, Rev!

This guy's not playin' around!

Keep him back, for just a couple of minutes.

(Razer) 'This is your fault!'

You Green Lanterns might enjoy destroying worlds. But I do not!

In case you haven't been keepin' up on current events

you guys put this thing here, and pressed the button!

You wanna help? Stop fightin' us!

I won't listen to your lies. I'll destroy you both!

wham wham

And what, you gonna mass murder them by blowin' up the planet?

You know what you're fightin' against, kid.

But what are you fightin' for?

Dumb kid.

Where are we, Shyir? Lets have some good news!

(automated) 'Detonation in thirty seconds.'

[intense music]

This is disappointing.

If you're the best the Guardians have, my victory is assured!

pew

wham

Master, the bomb is active. We need to move away.

(automated) 'Three.'

'Two.'

'One.'

'Detonate. Detonate.'

Time to go.

I can keep the laser from igniting the plutonium

for a little while anyway.

I know what happened to Bolovax Vik.

'If you had a chance to save your world..'

...what would you do?

It's been an honor.

[instrumental music]

It's foolish to stay when there's no hope, Green Lantern.

Yeah, we're dumb that way. But there's always hope.

I know you're not all bad.

'Maybe it's time you let others know, too.'

Best get goin', son.

I can handle this last part by myself.

[instrumental music]

boom

kaboom

Aah!

It appears you were wrong about Razer.

Never have I been so happy to be wrong.

I'll have the choir scream his praises at the Rage ceremony.

Now that we've eliminated the Lanterns from Oa

soon this galaxy will be ours for the taking.

And then the Guardians will pay for what they've done!

[dramatic music]

Kilowog? Rev?

pew

They aren't here anymore.

[grunting]

Is that the best you can do?

You think that will stop me?

[instrumental music]

wham wham wham

wham wham wham

You won't win unless you can do what is necessary.

Can you do it? Can you?

Finish it.

(Hal) 'You'd like that, wouldn't you?'

But you're not getting off that easy.

You'll live with the consequences

of what you've done.

No! You must kill me!

I'm the one responsible for all this death and destruction.

I deserve it!

Which is why you're going to help

make up for it.

Coward.

Are you too weak to take your vengeance?

Aa-a-a-h!

Don't push it.

You're gonna help me with this, hotshot?

Kilowog!

'I got most of the colonists'

out before the big bang but my Ring's runnin' low.

(Aya) 'I believe I can help.'

[instrumental music]

What's he doin' inside that bubble?

(Hal) 'Never mind him.'

You are a sight for sore eyes. You too, Aya.

(Aya) 'Thank you.'

What about Rev? Did he make it?

I hope everyone knows the sacrifice Shyir made.

They do, the elders are going to name

our new planet after him.

Your daddy was very brave, Amala.

He saved us all.

Is it okay if I still miss him?

Yeah. We all will.

[instrumental music]

You know, Shyir really did save them all.

He asked me what I'd do if I had another chance

to save my own planet?

And that's when it hit me, I'd save the people.

At least one of us got it right.

[instrumental music]

(Aya) 'Cooling system now functional.'

'Continuing repairs.'

So, what's next?

Next, we find the Red Lanterns.

Just how are we gonna stop who knows

how many super powerful Red Lanterns

with just the two of us?

That's a really good question, Kilowog.

Here's another one..

What should we do with the one we captured?

[intense music]
