Previously on Supergirl...

"To all true Children of Liberty,

who believe this country is ours.

We must resist the alien scourge."

If people feeling inferior is what
makes them join these hate groups,

then we could just
level the playing field.

Did the Harun-El do this?

It made the heart invincible.

[LENA] I want to move forward
with the Harun-El protocol.

We're gonna need a human subject.

[MANCHESTER] They took my baby, man.

Sorry, Fi. I've got to do it my way.

I got connected with
some Children of Liberty.

Tom, nice to meet you, bro.

I don't have direct access
to Agent Liberty.

But I can connect you
with people who do.

[OFFICER OVER RADIO] All units
respond to a hostage situation

at the alien fission rod factory.

[SIRENS WAILING]

Lower your gun
and get down on the ground.

Or I can't promise
you'll walk out of here.

[GRUNTING]

You're safe now.

Good job.

So what did your partners
want with the fission rods?

[MANCHESTER] Go ahead,
tell her what you told me.

I don't know anything.

Hey, hey, that is not
how we do things.

Look, you're getting in the
back of a police car anyway

so just tell us the truth.

I swear I don't know any more.

I said I wanted to help
and they gave me two options.

I could show up here
and steal some fission rods,

or hang out, waiting
for some cargo shipment.

We're done here.

Hey, partner. Wait up.

Look, I appreciate what you're
doing, but I can take it from here.

Look, Agent Liberty
took everything from me.

I will do anything to see him
brought to justice. Anything.

Just let me help. I'm resourceful.

I tracked them here, didn't I?

I'll call you if I find anything.

[EXHALES]

I apologize for the blindfold. A
necessary precaution, you understand.

Yeah, I get it.

But I'm no threat to you.

I came here on my own accord.

To talk to you.

To listen. I'm prepared to
hear your side of the story.

I mean, obviously, you
have an agenda, but why?

There has to be something.

The core of your anger, something
that's happened to you.

[AGENT LIBERTY] Something did
happen to me, Mr. Olsen.

I saw men struggling to remain
relevant, to provide for their family,

I saw human beings being treated
less than they deserve.

Less than exceptional.

Surely, there has to be
a part of you that can find

a commonality between
aliens and humans.

We just want good, safe lives
for our loved ones.

No, we're not here to talk about my

empathy, or lack thereof, for aliens.

Okay, you tell me.

What am I writing?

You won't be writing anything.

I'm giving you an opportunity

to step in front
of the camera for once,

to be the story,
to galvanize and to inspire.

Because Guardian stands for everything
that my followers strive for.

Human exceptionalism.

You want me to inspire your followers?

And how exactly
do you want me to do that?

I want you to destroy something.

A monument, something that stands
against everything we believe in.

I don't tear things down.

That's not my style.

I get it, you're not
a willing participant yet.

But you will be.

I believe in you, Mr. Olsen.

The fission rods were just delivered.

What about the rest? It's set?

- Yeah.
- Good.

Then the men we lost on
Thanksgiving will be avenged.

And by tomorrow night,

Supergirl will be dead.

[DOOR OPENS]

Miss Luthor, the subject's here.

- He's early.
- Well, he's eager to get started.

He's a real nice guy. He's got
nice green eyes, like yours.

Eve, doing experiments
of this nature on

a human subject is extremely serious.

I've had qualms about even proceeding.

You are not making this any easier.

I'm so sorry. Of course.

You have to proceed.

My cousin's in hospice.

Metastasized cancer,
she's got two little girls.

You give those kids their mother back

and just imagine all the other
families that you'd rescue.

Not to mention saving our country.

If you level the playing field
and make humans super,

you could be preventing
another civil war.

Have you prepared the subject?

Yes. His name...

No. No, don't tell me his name.

We'll refer to him as subject 0331.

Well, you must be the lab tech.

I'm your rat. Name's...

Subject 0331, male, brown hair,
green eyes, approximately 5'9".

Three-inch scar
on the left rear flank.

Hockey injury.

Buffalo boys.
Can't trust us on the ice.

I assume you've read and considered
the conditions of the experiment

before you signed the contract.

Feel free to look it over, but I will

need your thumbprint
to make it binding.

Yeah, wait, by conditions,
you mean this part, right?

"I, the subject, understand and
acknowledge the full range of risks

including, but not limited to
a 15% chance of expiration."

"Expiration" as in death,
right, lab tech?

That makes me sound
like a carton of milk.

If you're uncomfortable
with the terms,

you can just get dressed and leave.

No, no, no. I'm just messing with you.

Of course, I understand
the terms. It's just...

Why the soft-pedaling?

I mean, it's kind of like
when everyone would say,

"I'm so sorry your brother passed."

Passed what, gas?

Passed his driver's test?

No, he didn't pass, lady.
He freaking died.

Dead, as in a doornail.

Anyways, I digress. It's a thing I do.
I'm totally in.

- Here is my thumbprint.
- [DEVICE BEEPING]

Can I see your arm, please?

I suggest my left.

The ad for this gig made a pretty big

deal of secrecy of the whole thing.

But, uh, seeing as how I'm
putting my life on the line,

well, I'd love to know what it's for.

Well, you must know the
scientist pretty well, right?

Can you tell me what he's up to?

It's the advancement of science.

You're tough.

But under all that ice,
there's a heart.

I can tell.

So will I ever get to meet
the man behind all this?

You have met him. I'm the scientist.

Hey, I have to show you something.

Okay, in a minute.

Brainy, I need you to track...

Missing alien fission rods?
Already on it.

Great. And I need to track
any rogue cargo ship...

Gentlemen, you are watching The
Lockdown with Ben Lockwood.

What is that man doing on TV?

I told you I needed
to show you something.

[SUPERGIRL SIGHS]

And I'm sorry to say
we're going to start

tonight's show on a very somber note.

Because on Thanksgiving night,

five men peacefully protesting

the alien takeover of their
home planet went missing.

Roaches think they can blow us out
of the water whenever they want.

They see Supergirl flying around,
rounding up innocent people.

They're blaming me!

Is Supergirl a hero,

or is she the seed that may very well

'cause the eradication
of the human race?

- What?
- Hey.

Hey, you saved hundreds
of people on Thanksgiving.

And we don't even know if aliens
were involved in the disappearances.

- We're still investigating.
- [CELL PHONE RINGING]

Hang on.

J'onn, what's happening?

Hi, I just got a call
from Manchester Black,

said you two were
working on something?

He wanted me to give you a message.

Something about a cargo shipment?

Really? Send me the details.

Will do.

[GRUNTS]

Tom?

I'm so sorry I got you
involved in all this.

They lied to me.

I thought they were
gonna give you an interview.

I didn't know they were gonna use you.

My gauntlet.

Come on, we don't have a lot of time.

Welcome to Earth.

You are about to be
processed for immigration.

The island will dampen your powers,

but rest assured, they'll
return as soon as you leave.

Earth is a friendly place,

you are safe here.

Welcome to Shelley Island.

[JAMES] Shelley Island?

I thought this place was shut down
after President Marsdin resigned.

It was. That's why
it's the perfect place

for the Children of Liberty to gather.

[MAN ON PA] James Olsen has escaped.
Search the island.

No boats on or off.

[TOM] Come on, the boat's this way.

[GRUNTS]

[CHILDREN OF LIBERTY
YELLING INDISTINCTLY]

Go! James, go!

Go!

Earth traitor.

[GUNS COCKING]

Stop, stop, stop. Wait, wait, wait!

I'll do whatever you want.

Just don't hurt him.

You see?

I knew you'd heed the call.

Psst.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Thanks for the tip.

So what's this code you've cracked?

Follow me.

Once I realized that little
weasel in the energy factory

gave us everything we needed,
the rest was easy.

[SUPERGIRL] DISL label.

International standard codes
for ID and freight containers.

I nicked the logs from the shipyard

foreman, did a little
cross-referencing

and found our prize.

So, shall we see
what's behind door number one?

[SUPERGIRL] It's empty.

And freezing.

Whatever was shipped in here
was kept at sub-zero.

Yeah, now it's gone without a trace.

Maybe not.

[GRUNTS]

It's part of a shipping label.

Manchester?

You better tell me
what I need to know.

Hey, hey! Hey!
Whoa! What are you doing?

He's the supervisor.

He must know where
that shipment was headed.

- Where did it go?
- Stop!

Stop, he can't speak
through your fist.

Well done. Now he's gonna
go call the cops.

I don't care.

You could've broken his jaw.

We don't hurt innocent people.
What is wrong with you?

Okay, look, sorry. Sometimes
I just get a little...

I had a rough couple of months.

Yeah, well, maybe you should
take a few more and cool down.

I said I was sorry.

This was a mistake.

What?

I've gotta say I'm surprised
you haven't kicked me out yet.

For what?

Assuming the scientist was a man.

I was raised better than that. Sorry.

Apology accepted.

Can you at least tell me your name?

Doctor...

Kieran.

Dr. Kieran.

I'll bet your other lab rats haven't

offended you this much, Dr. Kieran.

I don't offend easily.

And there are no other subjects.

What?

I'm the only one?

That's right.

What, was I the only one crazy enough

to risk my life for something unknown?

Out of over 100 applicants, all but
12 were acceptably risk-tolerant.

Okay. But why did you pick me?

I have my reasons.

Oh, come on.

Dr. K, I have never been
picked for anything.

So you have to tell me.

Nagel's spider in
the shower conundrum.

The spider thing?

That was a multiple choice question.

There's a spider in a shower,

and it's been there for days, trapped.

And every time you turn the water on,

it tries to run
for its life to escape,

but it can't get out.
So what do you do?

Do you move it
to safety, do you kill it?

Nothing. You don't know
what the spider wants.

You leave it the hell alone.

Yeah.

Was I the only one who picked C?

Other than me.

Okay. So you picked me because

I don't care whether a
spider lives or dies.

If this thing works, the
last thing I want is a hero.

Then you have nothing to worry about.

My brother,

the one who passed,

he was a hero.

He was so perfect
it could be nauseating.

Believe me, I've never been a hero.

Neither have I.

You ever lost someone, Dr. K?

Yeah.

She was the only hero I ever had.

Oh!

Hey.

Oh, my.

I don't think you can cook a
turkey four different times.

It's accumulating flavor.

Yeah. Uh...

Listen, Brainy called
on my way over here.

He's still running tests on the label

that you brought back
from the shipyard.

But they did find the missing
bodies of the Children of Liberty.

And there was no evidence
they were killed by aliens.

- [SIGHS]
- But,

this was personal.

Busted skulls, broke jaws,
in addition to gunshot wounds.

Broken jaws.

Do you think brass knuckles
could cause that much damage?

If they're paired with
a strong enough arm, yeah.

Huh.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

I, uh, thought you might be
re-heating, so I brought wings.

- Oh, come on.
- Thank God.

Uh, no offense.

- Offense taken.
- [BLOWS RASPBERRY]

I, uh, saw Manchester at the bar
when I was grabbing dinner.

He wanted me to tell you
how sorry he was.

J'onn, you told me Manchester was
on the path of peace, like you.

We share a similar struggle, yeah.

So I understand how much he wants
to feel like he's doing something.

And how hard it is
for him to resist his more

violent urges.

You don't think he's
capable of killing

five Children of Liberty, do you?

He is angry.

But under that anger
is just a lot of pain.

Fiona's death just rocked him.

Manchester has a good heart.

I'm not ready to give up
on him just yet.

I mean, he's been on my side
every step of the fight.

He's resourceful and stubborn.

And if he wants something
he'll go after it.

He could be useful.

Okay.

Supergirl.

I thought you wanted
nothing to do with me.

Yeah.

But I spoke to J'onn and he said I
should give you another chance.

It's a pot pie. It comes in peace.

Thank you.

I never got the chance to meet Fiona.

But J'onn tells me she was remarkable.

She was.

I know you want justice for her.

I wanna help you find that.

- [BRAINY] Supergirl.
- Just a second.

Brainy, what is it?

Did we get a hit on the
contents of the container?

The label itself was too
destroyed to interpret.

But I found the residue
on it to be 80% glue

and 9.73% ink.

The rest was Nalcyite.

What is that? Is it dangerous?

It's Nalcian table salt.

However, on Earth,
it could be quite volatile.

Under the right conditions,
it has an explosive factor

of 8,000 joules per gram,

or that of a tiny, precise
nuclear explosion.

I should get back to the DEO.

No, wait. The DEO is already
on it looking for that bomb.

So maybe you and I
can crack something here.

Your friend said he'll call
if he finds something, right?

Right. Yeah.

Here.

Whoa.

Want some?

Thank you.

So are you ever actually gonna tell
me what it is we're doing here?

In success, which I'm counting
on, you'll need to know.

We're attempting to cure everything.

Like cancer?

Everything that makes men weak.

Are you telling me if this
had happened a year ago,

that my brother might still be here?

Not only that,

but if this works,

we'll cure not only all human
ailments, but you'll get...

Abilities.

What, like superpowers?

Something like that.

But you didn't want a hero.

I wanted someone responsible.

Somebody who wouldn't
think that they knew

what was best just
because they had powers.

Whoa. Um...

I don't think this is a good idea.

I'm not a good person.

You know, I lied to you about my scar?

Yeah, it's not from a hockey stick.

Looks like a surgical incision.
Maybe from a kidney transplant?

That kidney is the reason my
perfect selfless brother is dead.

I needed a kidney and he volunteered.

And the whole thing
was supposed to be routine,

but he died on the operating
table to save me.

You know what the worst part is?

If the roles had been reversed,

I wouldn't have given him
my freaking kidney!

No way! I was too selfish.

I was the one dying, I am the
one who's supposed to be dead!

Is that why you signed up?

Because you don't care
if you're gonna live or die?

Um, look, Dr. K,

you're obviously doing
something great here,

and I don't wanna
mess this up for you.

I mean, you said that this
could save, what, millions?

Hundreds. Hundreds of millions.

Yeah, well,
everything I touch is cursed.

If you've had a change of heart and
you wanna drop back, that's...

- That's okay.
- That's not it at all.

You deserve someone way better
than me to help you achieve this.

Out of 100 applicants, I chose you.

What if you chose wrong?

Well, I'm a very smart woman.

I stand by my choice.

[TOM] I was so wrong.

I thought if I joined
the Children of Liberty

- I wouldn't feel so...
- Helpless?

I guess this is what happens
when we let fear guide us.

Yeah.

We both made choices
that got us here, right?

I mean, I asked you for help.

No. If you stay,

if you blow up that monument then

everyone's gonna think
you're with them.

That you're a Child of Liberty.

You're gonna give
them the face they've

been dying for, the legitimacy.

So what?

That's what happens if I stay.

But if I go
and I preserve my reputation,

you die.

And then what, Tom? I'm lost.

And you're dead.

And then I am no better than him.

And I'm stronger than that.

I have spent my entire life building

myself up into the man that I am today

and I have not given society
one reason to doubt me.

But what is reputation?

I mean, what is it? It's nothing.

It's not who you are.

So if the latest fringe group
wants to tear that monument down,

we will build it right back up.

Agent Liberty can do whatever
he wants with my reputation.

I know who I am.

I keep coming across this problem.

The container was empty
when we got to it,

which means they had to get
rid of the cargo somewhere.

But the logs say
the shipment just arrived.

They didn't have time to unload there
or to make land at any other docks.

At least not on the mainland.

They had to have stopped at an island.
That's the only way.

[SIGHS] The missing alien
fission rods...

They're on Shelley Island.

That's where Fi came through.

I thought it was defunct.

It was, but it runs
on alien fission rods,

just like the ones that were stolen.

They turned the island back on.

I have to alert the DEO.

Wait. Hey, look,
if this is their home base,

and they're planning something,
Agent Liberty will be there.

Exactly. That's why we need backup.

No, it's why we need to be smart.

A guy like that can smell
the DEO a mile away.

If we go in blazing, he'll
hit the trigger, or worse.

We need to sneak in on the hush.

No big guns. You know,

your way.

Okay.

But there are power-dampening
pylons on the island.

We have to be careful. But luckily,

I always come prepared.

It's a yellow sun grenade
to boost my powers.

Think of it like
a Kryptonian multivitamin.

Hmm. Can I see that?

Yeah.

Brilliant.

I knew I'd do right
teaming up with you.

[SCOFFS]

Wow. It's beautiful.

Yeah. You should've seen this place
when it was fully operational.

There's the power dampeners.

[SUPERGIRL GASPS]

[CHILD OF LIBERTY] Stay where you are!

Sorry, Supergirl.
I saw an opportunity.

My new mates here promised me
an audience with their king.

So I delivered.

You set me up?

All this time,
you were playing me? Why?

Pain is a great motivator.

I told you I'd do anything.

[MANCHESTER] You must be Caldwell.

Petrocelli said I could trust you.

You get us Supergirl

and you get to meet the boss.

All right, gentlemen, you know the deal.
This has to look legit.

And, you, don't pull the
trigger until we're near her.

[GRUNTS]

All right then, as the roaches say,

"Take me to your leader."

Have patience. He'll be here soon.

Alex. Alex, can you hear me?

[GROANS]

Left arm.

Back to treating me like a number.

I guess you've finally
seen the error of your ways.

I don't deserve to be here.

You're not a bad person, Adam.

You called me "Adam."

You're also not responsible
for your brother's death.

There are hundreds of things
that could've caused

what happened on that operating table.

We know one thing that wasn't
responsible, and that's you.

You didn't cause it,
you couldn't have stopped it.

It was just bad luck.

Bad luck doesn't
make you a bad person.

Bad choices do.

And I would know because I'm a
much worse person than you.

Is this about the person you lost?

Who was she?

My mother.

My real one, not my adoptive, who
is very much alive and kicking.

How old were you?

Four.

You don't have to
tell me what happened.

No, I know. It's fine. I want to.

We were visiting family she said.

Somewhere by the water,
a lake I think.

It was...

It was so green.

It wasn't a very bright day,
it was overcast,

but my mom said
that's where the magic was.

It was the rain that made the green.

So of course, she went swimming.

She didn't come back.

- I'm sorry.
- No.

See, I was there.

I was with her on the shore,

when she went in,

and when she went under
and I did nothing.

I didn't run, I didn't cry.

I just stood there.

You were four.

What kind of child
doesn't run to their mother

or doesn't scream for help?

I knew.

I knew something was wrong,

but I did nothing.
I just watched her die.

And afterward, I was brought to this

terrible family.

And I have spent my life

fighting their legacy,

and their crimes and their evil deeds,

but I've always know that...

That deep down inside,

that I belonged with them.

Get some rest.

Tonight, the human hero Guardian
pledged his allegiance to humanity

as he exterminated

not only the symbol of alien pride,
but the greatest adversary...

"But the greatest threat

to our survival,

Supergirl."

Remember, if you say
anything off-book,

if you so much as frown at the camera,

- I will not hesitate...
- I know the rules.

And you're sure that there's
no one in that monument?

Cross my heart.

Now stand in front of the
detonator and say "cheese."

[PANTING]

[ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]

[GRUNTS]

[STRAINS]

Tiny, precise nuclear explosion.

So, I've been thinking about
starting a chapter across the pond.

You know, Children of Britain.

Here we are.

Come on in.

Five minutes, Mr. Lockwood.

You got it.

[MAN] Mr. Black.

I've heard a lot about you.

Please,

let's talk.

Yes, let's.

[GRUNTS]

[STRAINING]

[PANTING]

My name is James Olsen.

And I believe in the Children of

Liberty, and everything
they stand for.

Only humans

belong on Earth.

James!

[AUTOMATED VOICE] Device online.

James!

[BEEPING]

Device activated.

James!

I hear you want to discuss
the possibility of expanding

the Children of Liberty to Europe.

But I thought you made plans
to live here with Fiona.

[SCOFFS]

Of course you're not Agent Liberty.

Because if you've
connected me to Fiona,

you know the only reason
I'm here is to avenge her.

And he'd never risk that.

I made a deal with our
dead friend over there

and he did not deliver.

- Maybe you can.
- [GUN COCKS]

Who is Agent Liberty?

If I tell you, you'll let me live?

I believe disloyalty
should be rewarded.

[GROANING]

James, come on, see me!

[GROANS]

I do this in the name of humanity.

[SUPERGIRL] James!

Supergirl?

James!

Get him!

Come on!

Take him down!

Don't move!

[AUTOMATED VOICE] Countdown initiated.

Twenty, 19...

I honored my end of the deal.

I delivered the goods.

But I think now
I'm gonna take it back.

Time to let our caged bird free.

[AUTOMATED VOICE]
Ten, nine, eight, seven,

six, five...

[CHUCKLES]

What? What's this?

It's your payment. We're
shutting down the experiment.

You're free to go.

Wait, why?

- Was it something I did?
- No.

No, we're just

not moving forward, okay? I've changed

my mind. It's not worth the risk.

Of course there's risk.

There's no progress without risk.

I just can't have another death on
my hands, okay? It's not worth it.

I've never done anything
meaningful in my life.

And what you're doing here
is... Is miraculous.

If I can be a part of this my
life will finally make sense.

Good people don't let other
people take this kind of risk.

I have a 15% chance of my
kidney transplant not working.

I live with risk every day.

I mean, people risk
their lives for the

things they believe in all the time.

They enlist and go to war
to protect their country.

They become firefighters
to save other people.

The risk I'd be taking
is worth it to me.

And you are a good person.

You said it yourself, you could save
hundreds of millions of people.

How many people can say they
have the ability to do that?

So you made one very human mistake

when you were practically a baby.

That was not your fault.

And look at all the good
you're doing now.

Please don't take
this gift away from me.

Please let me do something good.

Subject 0331,

trial one commencement.

[BEEPING]

Thank you.

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

You betrayed Supergirl tonight.

You betrayed me
and your promise to Fiona.

No vengeance is worth your soul.

What soul, old man?

I saw the love you had for
Fiona, how you fought for her.

I also know what you're gonna do,

and I can't let you kill a man,

even if that man is Agent Liberty.

Once you cross that line,
Manchester, there is no going back.

You have no idea what lines
I've already crossed.

See that there?

That's your heart beating.
Mine is dead.

And every time I close my eyes

and wait to hear Fi's voice,

there's nothing. There's just silence.

I'm empty, man.

That is not true!

You wanna know the truth?

Look.

[DEVICE BEEPS]

[GUNSHOT]

Why won't it stop?

It's an empathy amplifier.

It was created to use against empaths,

double the hurt
and keep everything in.

If I can't escape this pain,
neither can you.

You shouldn't have believed in me.

[CRYING]

We have concluded
our first human trial.

Test subject 0331 exhibited
what could be considered

extra-human powers for precisely
three minutes and 14 seconds.

Time of death, 4:03 a.m.

Despite the expiration of the subject,

the trial reaped new and critical
information on the human genome.

Future trials run at
an 87% probability of success.

Payment will be sent
to the subject's next of kin.

I'm so sorry, Adam.

I moved the spider.

What you working on?

Hey. Um...

You know, they made me say a lot
of things in that camera today.

Horrible things
that I don't believe in.

So I just wanna tell
my side of the story

about my time with
the Children of Liberty.

Yeah, I've been thinking
a lot about that, too.

Duality.

How people can surprise you.

Manchester Black is... [SIGHS]

Is bad.

He killed people,
he betrayed me, but...

But then he turned around
to help me. I...

Well, maybe he wasn't
trying to help you.

Maybe that was just a consequence.

Yeah, I guess people only show
you what they want you to see.

And that's not always who they are.

Yeah. I mean, look at me, I...

I compromised myself today.

You saved Tom's life.

But I risked
everything I've worked for.

Everything, my reputation, my life.

Your life.

You know, though,

I guess I kind of understand

a little better why Lena
lied to me about the DA now.

You should tell her that.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Pasta is in.

[SIGHS]

Look, I know we didn't leave
things off on the best note,

and I was just...

I was thinking we could try again.

How was your day?

You know what, I'm pretty tired.

Got a lot of work to do.

See you tomorrow?

Tomorrow it is.

[MAN ON TV] What do we got, a
couple of wise guys over here?

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Hey.

What's wrong?

I failed.

I was wrong. I was wrong.

Manchester, uh...

He killed all of them.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.
