1. Times like these...
Copy !req
2. One feels
the very weight of the world upon us.
Copy !req
3. Everyone is here.
Copy !req
4. Our agenda is clear.
Copy !req
5. What's at stake
should not be underestimated.
Copy !req
6. The decisions we make today
will reverberate for years to come.
Copy !req
7. And influence whether or not
the world continues to put their trust
Copy !req
8. in the Justice League.
Copy !req
9. Please, take your seats.
Copy !req
10. We have work to do.
Copy !req
11. Season 1, episode 22
"Agendas"
Copy !req
12. Another expansion of the League
Copy !req
13. could generate another escalation
of hostilities from our enemies.
Copy !req
14. No one needs or wants
another Injustice League.
Copy !req
15. Point taken. But the option remains
to vote no one or all candidates.
Copy !req
16. So...
Copy !req
17. I nominate Icon
for League membership.
Copy !req
18. Why, because you suspect Icon
might be Kryptonian,
Copy !req
19. like you did with Captain Marvel?
Copy !req
20. You thought I was Kryptonian?
Cool!
Copy !req
21. Icon interests me also.
Copy !req
22. As does his protégé,
Rocket.
Copy !req
23. Athena knows the League
could use more female members.
Copy !req
24. - Agreed.
- Hear, hear!
Copy !req
25. Gabble, gabble!
Copy !req
26. Aw, I love Thanksgiving!
Copy !req
27. - Ow!
- Those are for dinner, Wally!
Copy !req
28. There, seasoned to perfection
and ready for the oven!
Copy !req
29. Wally, I thought
you were eating with your family!
Copy !req
30. Oh, yeah,
Dad will kill me if I'm late!
Copy !req
31. See ya!
Copy !req
32. Wally!
Copy !req
33. It's nothing.
The onions...
Copy !req
34. These are all the things
I used to cook for...
Copy !req
35. It's my first Thanksgiving
without my Dad.
Copy !req
36. At least she had a Dad.
Copy !req
37. With Superman off world,
Copy !req
38. only one thing alive
with less than four legs
Copy !req
39. can hear this frequency,
Superboy.
Copy !req
40. And that's you.
Copy !req
41. I promise,
it will be worth the trip.
Copy !req
42. Conner?
Copy !req
43. Figured you don't want my help
in the kitchen.
Copy !req
44. Remember the last time?
Copy !req
45. When the...
Yeah. But...
Copy !req
46. Just walking Wolf.
No big.
Copy !req
47. Seriously?
The Atom?
Copy !req
48. How useful could he be
at that size?
Copy !req
49. It's the size
that makes him useful.
Copy !req
50. Absolutely.
Copy !req
51. Still, we could always use
more raw power.
Copy !req
52. And Earth has
a third Green Lantern.
Copy !req
53. - Guy Gardner.
- No!
Copy !req
54. - But we could really...
- No!
Copy !req
55. Superboy...
My name is Lex Luthor.
Copy !req
56. I'm the new Chairman
of the Board for Project Cadmus.
Copy !req
57. I know who you are, Luthor.
Copy !req
58. And I want nothing to do with you.
Or Cadmus.
Copy !req
59. Cadmus has created
a new super clone.
Copy !req
60. Another genomorph has vanished.
Copy !req
61. Every disappearance
is being investigated.
Copy !req
62. Not good enough, Dubbilex.
Copy !req
63. The new super clone.
Where are you holding it?
Copy !req
64. Welcome home, Superboy.
Copy !req
65. Now, what are you talking about?
Copy !req
66. Brother, you are
the only super clone in Cadmus.
Copy !req
67. All cloning projects,
human and Kryptonian
Copy !req
68. had been shut down
since you escaped.
Copy !req
69. "Since my liberation".
Copy !req
70. As you say.
Copy !req
71. But now I'm needed
back in my lab.
Copy !req
72. Sometimes I hate this job.
Copy !req
73. You... you look a lot
like Red Arrow.
Copy !req
74. Not all that surprising,
Red Arrow is my nephew.
Copy !req
75. If we're considering Blue Devil,
then I nominate Red Arrow.
Copy !req
76. Roy has more experience
and he's no kid anymore.
Copy !req
77. He's eighteen.
A legal adult.
Copy !req
78. Red Arrow has been uncooperative
and disrespectful.
Copy !req
79. If we reward that behavior...
Copy !req
80. What message does that send
to the rest of the Team?
Copy !req
81. Here's the floor 1-1.
Copy !req
82. This is the new and improved Cadmus.
Copy !req
83. Doctor Spence and her team
Copy !req
84. are doing truly worthwhile
genetic medical research now.
Copy !req
85. The genomorphs are becoming
more independent. More educated.
Copy !req
86. Some even have names.
Copy !req
87. Hey, Benny!
Copy !req
88. And, someday...
Copy !req
89. The working done here
will save millions of lives...
Copy !req
90. Superboy...
You may trust Guardian.
Copy !req
91. He keeps no secrets.
Copy !req
92. Unlike you...
Copy !req
93. Apparently, you still keep
your psychic power a secret.
Copy !req
94. Some secrets have their place.
Copy !req
95. We were all created
to be exploited as living weapons.
Copy !req
96. You were designed...
Copy !req
97. to replace or destroy Superman,
I know. What's your point?
Copy !req
98. That you should understand
the plight of those left behind,
Copy !req
99. after I helped free you
from Cadmus.
Copy !req
100. The League liberated all genomorphs.
Copy !req
101. Are we free to walk the surface,
as you do?
Copy !req
102. Or has our role merely changed
from weapons to menial labor?
Copy !req
103. Look... it's complicated.
Copy !req
104. But first things first.
Copy !req
105. Guardian, could a super clone exist
without you knowing?
Copy !req
106. It's highly unlikely.
Copy !req
107. Tell me, Brother,
Copy !req
108. what would you do
if you found this super clone?
Copy !req
109. If it'd exist, I'd free it.
Copy !req
110. Just like Aqualad, Robin and Kid Flash
freed me.
Copy !req
111. Then I will question our brothers.
Copy !req
112. Nothing happens at Cadmus
without a genomorph knowing.
Copy !req
113. If a super clone exists,
we will find him.
Copy !req
114. Look, I have my own
missing genomorphs to locate.
Copy !req
115. But you got the run of the place.
Copy !req
116. I just doubt you'll find
what you're looking for.
Copy !req
117. It's OK.
You're free now.
Copy !req
118. Stop! I'm on your side!
Copy !req
119. You can fly...
Why can you fly?
Copy !req
120. I don't wanna do this!
Copy !req
121. Enough!
Copy !req
122. I'm trying to help you!
Copy !req
123. No!
Copy !req
124. Red Arrow may be eighteen,
but the rest of the Team is too young.
Copy !req
125. We're not inducting children
into the League.
Copy !req
126. That seems ironic.
Copy !req
127. I have been one
with Kid Flash and Aqualad.
Copy !req
128. Both are ready.
Copy !req
129. - And what of Zatanna?
- Absolutely not!
Copy !req
130. That sounded almost protective,
Doctor.
Copy !req
131. At least we know Zatara
is still in that helmet, somewhere.
Copy !req
132. Why is Doctor Fate a member?
Copy !req
133. You coerced Zatara
into giving up his life to you.
Copy !req
134. Or else,
lose his daughter instead.
Copy !req
135. Not cool.
Copy !req
136. Should such behavior
be condoned?
Copy !req
137. Zatara desires
Doctor Fate remain with the League.
Copy !req
138. - Oh, please...
- It is true!
Copy !req
139. Zatara's trust in Nabu is...
measured.
Copy !req
140. He desires the League
to maintain a close watch upon us.
Copy !req
141. No, no, no!
Copy !req
142. It's alright!
Copy !req
143. It's not "alright"!
Copy !req
144. You put me in a pod!
Copy !req
145. It was the fastest way
to heal your injuries!
Copy !req
146. She's another Cadmus' mad scientist,
picking up where Desmond left off!
Copy !req
147. "Project Match" is yours!
Admit it!
Copy !req
148. Believe what you want!
Copy !req
149. Superboy, please!
Copy !req
150. She was as shocked to see the security
camera footage of this "Match" as I was.
Copy !req
151. - Where is he now?
- He... disappeared.
Copy !req
152. What?
Copy !req
153. All cameras went offline
after your battle.
Copy !req
154. By the time we arrived...
Match was gone.
Copy !req
155. And he isn't the only genomorph
to disappear.
Copy !req
156. We need to go
to the bottom of this.
Copy !req
157. So, the truth
wasn't that hard to find, after all.
Copy !req
158. I assume you suffered no...
Copy !req
159. - ... permanent damage.
- Like you care!
Copy !req
160. Tell me what you know
about Project Match.
Copy !req
161. Very little.
I know more about you.
Copy !req
162. Kryptonian DNA is notoriously
difficult for human science to read.
Copy !req
163. When you were created,
Copy !req
164. the gaps in the sequences were bridged
with human DNA.
Copy !req
165. Robbing you
of your full Kryptonian powers.
Copy !req
166. No flight, no heat vision,
etcetera.
Copy !req
167. I'm part human!
Copy !req
168. Yes.
Copy !req
169. Obviously, your... twin
was created with pure Kryptonian DNA.
Copy !req
170. The missing sequences have...
apparently left Match unstable.
Copy !req
171. Insane.
Copy !req
172. I'd advise you to get him
back on ice as soon as possible.
Copy !req
173. Not gonna happen.
Copy !req
174. Your call.
Either way, you'll need help.
Copy !req
175. Consider this a gift.
Copy !req
176. I call them "shields".
Copy !req
177. Stick one on your arm
Copy !req
178. and it will suppress your human DNA
for about an hour.
Copy !req
179. Allowing your Kryptonian powers
to bloom.
Copy !req
180. You'll be as powerful
as Match.
Copy !req
181. As Superman.
Copy !req
182. I don't want anything from you.
Copy !req
183. Keep them, anyway.
Copy !req
184. You never know.
Copy !req
185. Plastic Man.
Copy !req
186. I don't know... The guy has
a pretty substantial criminal record.
Copy !req
187. Sorry... sorry.
Copy !req
188. The guy just cracks me up.
Copy !req
189. Maybe it's time we all talk
about the elephant in the room.
Copy !req
190. Should Captain Marvel
stay a member?
Copy !req
191. Now that we know
he's really only ten years old?
Copy !req
192. He does possess an adult body
and the wisdom of Solomon.
Copy !req
193. Wisdom does not equal maturity.
Copy !req
194. Hey, I'm sitting right here!
Copy !req
195. Then, Billy, maybe
you should leave.
Copy !req
196. Until we hash this out.
Copy !req
197. No. Captain Marvel is a member
Copy !req
198. and is entitled to participate,
until or unless he's voted out.
Copy !req
199. It's not just his age.
It's the fact that he lied about it.
Copy !req
200. I didn't lie...
exactly.
Copy !req
201. I just left out the part
about being a kid.
Copy !req
202. A lie of omission is still a lie.
Copy !req
203. You kept an important secret from us.
Copy !req
204. No one in the League
knew the truth.
Copy !req
205. I did.
Copy !req
206. I shouldn't be surprised.
Copy !req
207. Since you indoctrinated Robin into crime
fighting at the ripe old age of nine...
Copy !req
208. Robin needed to help bring the man
who murdered his family to justice.
Copy !req
209. So he could turn out like you?
Copy !req
210. So that he wouldn't.
Copy !req
211. At least these are empty.
Copy !req
212. OK, Dubbilex, spill.
Copy !req
213. When I accused Spence,
I could hear your heart rate increase.
Copy !req
214. Stress.
You're hiding something.
Copy !req
215. From them, not you.
Copy !req
216. I have questioned
the oldest genomorphes.
Copy !req
217. They tell me Match is not
your younger brother.
Copy !req
218. He was Cadmus' first attempt
to clone Superman.
Copy !req
219. His Kryptonian DNA
rendered him uncontrollable,
Copy !req
220. so they froze him,
and struck again.
Copy !req
221. Who are "they"?
Copy !req
222. Desmond? Spence?
Copy !req
223. Desmond, yes.
Copy !req
224. And his superior
and Cadmus founder,
Copy !req
225. Lex Luthor.
Copy !req
226. So Luthor took Match.
Copy !req
227. Actually, Brother,
Copy !req
228. I did that.
Copy !req
229. Turn left, Brother.
Copy !req
230. Welcome, Brother,
Copy !req
231. to Genomorph City.
Copy !req
232. So you're responsible
for the missing genomorphs.
Copy !req
233. I am.
Copy !req
234. One by one,
I have liberated them,
Copy !req
235. brought them here, to a new life,
where all our brothers can be free.
Copy !req
236. Of course, I have a dream that one day,
the world you live in will accept us.
Copy !req
237. But for now, no one must know
Genomorph City exists.
Copy !req
238. Which is why
I brought our brother here.
Copy !req
239. - What have you done to him?
- He is safe.
Copy !req
240. The genoms keep him docile
with their psychic abilities.
Copy !req
241. And the chains?
Copy !req
242. Should he escape,
in his current condition,
Copy !req
243. he could set back
the genomorph cause by decades.
Copy !req
244. So you hold him prisoner,
like Cadmus held me?
Copy !req
245. You might as well put him in a pod!
Copy !req
246. Our goal is rehabilitation.
Copy !req
247. We will release him
when he is ready.
Copy !req
248. That's not your call!
Copy !req
249. Be calm!
Copy !req
250. You seem to have reached consensus
Copy !req
251. that eighteen years is a suitable
minimum age for joining the League.
Copy !req
252. Yet, what of Miss Martian?
Copy !req
253. Though she is a biological adolescent
by Martian standards,
Copy !req
254. she was born 48 Earth years ago.
Copy !req
255. So what is the deciding factor?
Copy !req
256. Chronology or biology?
Copy !req
257. - Take Superboy.
- Exactly.
Copy !req
258. He's less than a year old.
Copy !req
259. Does he have to wait 17 more
to stand beside us?
Copy !req
260. My turn.
Copy !req
261. Superboy, enough!
Copy !req
262. He's down.
You won.
Copy !req
263. It has to be this way.
Copy !req
264. No other ideas?
Copy !req
265. Then here are candidates
for new, or continued membership.
Copy !req
266. We've debated origin,
Copy !req
267. gender, size, experience, age,
temperament and background.
Copy !req
268. But... What is the fundamental
criterion for membership?
Copy !req
269. When all is said and done,
the question must be,
Copy !req
270. whom do we trust?
Copy !req
271. Trust to fight beside us,
Copy !req
272. trust to have our backs,
Copy !req
273. trust to uphold the high standards
and ideals of the Justice League.
Copy !req
274. Time to vote.
Copy !req
275. There was a tracker
in that tin box you gave me.
Copy !req
276. Yes. I assume you discovered it,
with your X-ray vision?
Copy !req
277. You initiated the cloning projects!
Copy !req
278. I wanted Superman
to meet his match.
Copy !req
279. And you used both of us
to locate the missing genomorphs.
Copy !req
280. A good businessman
has to keep track of his assets.
Copy !req
281. But none of that
is what really bothers you.
Copy !req
282. Half your DNA is human.
Copy !req
283. Haven't you wondered
who the donor was?
Copy !req
284. Or have you just been afraid
to acknowledge the obvious...
Copy !req
285. Face it, son.
Copy !req
286. You have much more in common
with me than Superman.
Copy !req
287. That's a lie!
Copy !req
288. What has he given you?
Nothing.
Copy !req
289. Not even affection.
And, why?
Copy !req
290. Because Big-Boy-Blue
lives in a world of black and white.
Copy !req
291. You were created by the "bad guys".
Copy !req
292. So there must be
something wrong with you.
Copy !req
293. But we both know
life isn't that clear cut.
Copy !req
294. The real world is full of grays.
Copy !req
295. Weren't you determined
to free Match at all cost?
Copy !req
296. Yet, ultimately, you wisely agreed
to my suggestion to refreeze him,
Copy !req
297. for the greater good of all.
Copy !req
298. And though you think me a villain,
you still accepted my shields.
Copy !req
299. We're more alike
than you care to admit.
Copy !req
300. - Take them back.
- They're a gift!
Copy !req
301. From a father to his son.
Copy !req
302. I won't need them for this...
Copy !req
303. Red sun.
Copy !req
304. Two words,
and he shut me down...
Copy !req
305. What else can he make me do?
Copy !req
306. All those in favor
of ratifying the results...
Copy !req
307. Aye!
Copy !req
308. All opposed?
Copy !req
309. Then, we are adjourned.
Copy !req
