Quotes
-
Kara Danvers : Thara Ak-Var, this is Mon-El of the Legion of Superheroes.
Mon-El : [shaking hands] Hi. It... it's just like a space police.
Alura Zor-El : Well, Thara is in law enforcement, as well. She's chief peace officer on Argo.
Thara Ak-Var : Times have been peaceful ever since we re-settled, thanks to Alura and the work of the High Council.
Alura Zor-El : Well, we all play our part, but Thara has really stepped up. She knows the city like the back of her hand.
Kara Danvers : Well, maybe you can help us find something for Mon-El.
Mon-El : Right. Um... a-a synthetic gravity manipulator?
Thara Ak-Var : There's a guy in the market who sells anything with a microchip.
Mon-El : Great.
Thara Ak-Var : And after that, I'd love for you to meet my family.
Kara Danvers : Your... your family?
Thara Ak-Var : My husband, Lir-Al, and our two kids.
Kara Danvers : Okay, we really need to catch up.
-
Thara Ak-Var : Did you find the gravity manipulator you were looking for?
Mon-El : I did, but the guy who sold it to me was sort of an oddball. Do... do you know him?
Lir-Al : Ol-Irus.
Thara Ak-Var : Mm-hmm.
Lir-Al : Everybody knows him.
Kara Danvers : Ol-Irus, our schoolteacher?
Thara Ak-Var : Uh-huh. Do you remember that time he made us take home insect samples to study, and they reproduced by the hundreds in our houses?
Kara Danvers : [laughing at the memory] Well, maybe you weren't so good at your insect homework, but I'm sure you are an amazing mother.
-
Thara Ak-Var : It's really you!
Kara Danvers : Thara?
Thara Ak-Var : [hugging her] We all thought you were dead. The ceremony broke my heart. I can't believe my eyes.
Kara Danvers : Neither can I. Your parents, your brother?
Thara Ak-Var : I'm the only one who survived.
Kara Danvers : I'm so sorry, Thara.
Thara Ak-Var : I've recovered.
-
Thara Ak-Var : You've lived on another planet all these years, a planet where you can fly?
Kara Danvers : Yes. Uh... there's... there's so much to tell you.
Thara Ak-Var : We'll have to climb up onto the roof, fill each other in.
Kara Danvers : I would love that.
-
Thara Ak-Var : [after a construction mishap] I'm so sorry. Usually our construction sites are up to code, but it turns out this one hadn't been inspected yet.
Kara Danvers : So you think it was an accident?
Thara Ak-Var : Of course.
Alura Zor-El : Why? What do you think it was?
Kara Danvers : I'm not sure. Um... I saw someone after it fell running away.
Thara Ak-Var : It could have been anyone.
Kara Danvers : It's just, in my life, nothing happens for no reason. There are no accidents.
Alura Zor-El : That was on Earth.
Mon-El : Do you think you could look into it further?
Thara Ak-Var : Of course. We'll get right on it.
-
Lir-Al : We're building a gazebo in our back yard. It's been carved out of this huge, beautiful piece of stone that was left from the wreckage.
Thara Ak-Var : We couldn't have been more clear with Laura that we wanted it to face south.
Lir-Al : So that we could enjoy the lake off the orchard in the evening.
Thara Ak-Var : And she's carved it in the wrong direction.
Lir-Al : So now we have this stone monolith in our back yard that's facing the woods.
Thara Ak-Var : Nothing can be done about it. It's so tragic.
Kara Danvers : Well, I mean, it's not that bad.
Thara Ak-Var : You'll see that the direction you're facing matters a great deal.
Lir-Al : Of course it does. It affects your mood.
Thara Ak-Var : And your quality of sleep.
Lir-Al : Well, we will find a way to manage.
-
Thara Ak-Var : Kara, what's going on?
Kara Danvers : She was there right after the crane fell.
Felra : It's not true. I wasn't there.
Kara Danvers : I know what I saw! Why do you want to hurt me? Tell me!
Felra : She's crazy. I did nothing.
Kara Danvers : You're lying. Now, you're gonna tell me who you are, and what you want with me, or I promise you, you will regret it.
Thara Ak-Var : Kara, enough. Felra, go home.
[to Kara, as Felra leaves]
Thara Ak-Var : Her husband owns the grocery. I've known her for years. She would never hurt anyone, let alone somebody she's never met. Let's call it a night. Kara, please, go home. Get some rest.

Thara Ak-Var : I defended you the other night, and now you try to kill the daughter of the House of El? After everything Alura and Zor-El have done for the survival of this city, how could you betray that?
Felra : [glancing at Kara] We are the daughters of the night, children of Juru, the deliverance of all Krypton. And Selena is our high priestess.
Kara Danvers : Selena? But she helped me defeat Reign.
Felra : Nothing is as it seems.
