1. Black Manta
to Deathstroke.
Copy !req
2. Awaiting progress report.
Copy !req
3. Progress is slow.
Copy !req
4. Miss Martian has partially
restored your son's psyche,
Copy !req
5. but he remains
far from whole.
Copy !req
6. All right. Keep the manta flyer
at a safe distance from the sub,
Copy !req
7. beyond the range
of Miss Martian's psychic power.
Copy !req
8. He's still not himself.
But then, who is?
Copy !req
9. So what's our next move?
Copy !req
10. With that inhibitor collar
disabling your shape shifting
Copy !req
11. and telekinetic abilities,
I'm not sure.
Copy !req
12. I guess we're lucky Deathstroke
hasn't pressed a button
Copy !req
13. to block my psychic powers, too.
Copy !req
14. Or pressed another button
to blow your head off,
Copy !req
15. with the explosives
built into the collar.
Copy !req
16. It hardly matters.
Copy !req
17. You know Manta plans to kill me
as soon as I've cured his son.
Copy !req
18. Which is why he must not
learn I am already cured
Copy !req
19. until we devise some way
to save M'gann's life.
Copy !req
20. Yeah, but the question is,
how long can we continue to stall?
Copy !req
21. My patience has run out, Martian.
You have 24 hours.
Copy !req
22. Finish curing my son,
or die.
Copy !req
23. Guess that answers your question.
I'm doomed either way.
Copy !req
24. Season 2: Invasion
Episode 16: "Complications"
Copy !req
25. All right, what happened?
Copy !req
26. What happened to
the rest of my Team?
Copy !req
27. - It's all my fault.
- That assessment is inaccurate.
Copy !req
28. Just tell him
what you told us.
Copy !req
29. We'd won.
Copy !req
30. We were all here in this bay, and
Wondergirl had Mongul hogtied.
Copy !req
31. Then suddenly a boomtube opened up
right beneath our feet.
Copy !req
32. I flew up and out.
It was instinct, you know.
Copy !req
33. But before I could do
anything else,
Copy !req
34. the boomtube closed,
and the others were gone.
Copy !req
35. Definitely reading
traces of boomtube activity.
Copy !req
36. We think Mongul may have opened
the boomtube as a mean of escape,
Copy !req
37. gaining the Team as captives
in the bargain.
Copy !req
38. - The Team and worse.
- Impulse had the crystal key.
Copy !req
39. So the priority is making sure no one
uses it to reactivate the Warworld.
Copy !req
40. Captain Marvel and Rocket are
already guarding the key chamber.
Copy !req
41. And the Justice League will
continue guarding it in shifts
Copy !req
42. until the key is found
and the threat is ended.
Copy !req
43. - It's all my fault.
- Stop.
Copy !req
44. You didn't do anything wrong.
We'll figure this out.
Copy !req
45. - For now...
- I will ensure he gets home safely.
Copy !req
46. No, I want to stay.
I want to help.
Copy !req
47. You will help.
But right now, you need rest.
Copy !req
48. Sleep. Go.
Copy !req
49. - I'm sorry.
- No. Whoever did this, they'll be sorry.
Copy !req
50. I want to make
one thing clear.
Copy !req
51. I'm only working with you
to avenge my sister.
Copy !req
52. Yeah, 'cause you and Artemis
were always so close.
Copy !req
53. Rationalize it however
you want, little girl,
Copy !req
54. just handle Aqualad
and leave Black Manta to me.
Copy !req
55. I need to put him down
to preserve my rep.
Copy !req
56. - And that's all you care about.
- Don't kid yourself, Jade.
Copy !req
57. We're not that different.
Copy !req
58. - So we're all agreed?
- No, we're not.
Copy !req
59. I don't want the two of you
risking exposure for me.
Copy !req
60. Instead you expect us
to sit back and let you die?
Copy !req
61. No.
Artemis, begin.
Copy !req
62. Deathstroke, been on duty
for 12 hours straight.
Copy !req
63. I need to stretch my legs,
and I need coffee.
Copy !req
64. Understood.
Copy !req
65. Take over. I'll
be back in five.
Copy !req
66. - Fresh pot.
- No thanks.
Copy !req
67. - This should not take long.
- No, assuming she isn't caught.
Copy !req
68. This is for Artemis.
Copy !req
69. No!
Copy !req
70. You protect the man
who murdered your best friend?
Copy !req
71. Cheshire, stop.
You don't understand.
Copy !req
72. No, not now.
Copy !req
73. What? What don't
I understand?
Copy !req
74. Deathstroke to Manta.
You have an intruder aboard.
Copy !req
75. Cheshire's in
your son's cabin.
Copy !req
76. Manta's Communications.
Intruder alert.
Copy !req
77. Reinforcements
to my son's room, now!
Copy !req
78. M'gann, what's going on?
M'gann?
Copy !req
79. I'll coordinate from here.
You two protect Kaldur'ahm.
Copy !req
80. Looks like someone
already got to Aqualad.
Copy !req
81. In fact, it looks like
that someone was you.
Copy !req
82. Which makes you defending him
even more inexplicable
Copy !req
83. and me killing him a lot
less amusing.
Copy !req
84. But then again, I'm not here
for the giggles.
Copy !req
85. Inhibitor collar.
So no Martian powers. Pity.
Copy !req
86. Deathstroke to Tigress.
Copy !req
87. The assassin Cheshire has locked
herself inside Kaldur'ahm's cabin.
Copy !req
88. The Martian's attempting
to save him.
Copy !req
89. She knows if her patient dies,
we have no reason to keep her alive.
Copy !req
90. But you better
get back there now.
Copy !req
91. On my way.
Copy !req
92. OK, now we can talk.
Copy !req
93. Cheshire, stop.
Copy !req
94. All is not what it seems.
Copy !req
95. So it would appear, "Mr. Fake some
mental condition". That's fine.
Copy !req
96. Killing you will be
so much more satisfying now.
Copy !req
97. Wait. You seek my death
because of your sister.
Copy !req
98. But Artemis is alive.
Copy !req
99. In fact, she is
aboard this vessel.
Copy !req
100. Artemis is alive?
Copy !req
101. You didn't really think
I'd buy that, did you?
Copy !req
102. Airlock's damaged.
Copy !req
103. Robin's birdarang.
Copy !req
104. Birdarang must have
scratched Blue's armor.
Copy !req
105. Finally!
Copy !req
106. You betrayed your friends,
murdered my sister.
Copy !req
107. Perhaps when I cut you open,
I'll find you truly are heartless.
Copy !req
108. M'gann, the collar's deactivated.
You should have all your powers back.
Copy !req
109. M'gann? M'gann!
Copy !req
110. - Tigress! To my side!
- Yes, boss!
Copy !req
111. - Take him! I'm saving my son!
- You won't get away that easy, Manta!
Copy !req
112. You're playing for
the wrong team, girly-girl.
Copy !req
113. Game over.
Copy !req
114. Sir, we have an explosive
charge ready to detonate...
Copy !req
115. Kaldur'ahm!
Copy !req
116. Father and son.
My lucky day.
Copy !req
117. Enough!
Copy !req
118. How dare you...!
Copy !req
119. What gives you the right to invade my mind
and steal this memory from our childhood?
Copy !req
120. This isn't your memory, Jade.
It's mine.
Copy !req
121. I'm alive.
I'm here.
Copy !req
122. Look.
Copy !req
123. Aqualad did not kill Artemis.
Copy !req
124. She only pretended to be dead,
so she could become Tigress
Copy !req
125. and join Aqualad's deep cover mission
to infiltrate The Light and The Reach.
Copy !req
126. - You're alive.
- I'm alive.
Copy !req
127. So you don't need to take
vengeance on Kaldur.
Copy !req
128. I guess I don't.
You so dodged a bullet, fish boy.
Copy !req
129. - We appreciate the cooperation.
- Are you serious?
Copy !req
130. You're not really buying this.
It's some kind of Martian illusion.
Copy !req
131. Artemis is still dead,
and I still have my rep to preserve.
Copy !req
132. Come on, crusher.
Artemis is your daughter.
Copy !req
133. - Can't you feel her presence here?
- I don't even feel your presence here.
Copy !req
134. He's hopeless, and I don't know
why I'm surprised.
Copy !req
135. - Release us. I'll convince him.
- Yeah. Good luck with that.
Copy !req
136. - I taught you that move!
- Uh, duh, dad.
Copy !req
137. So you and Aqualad are playing
Manta and The Light for chumps.
Copy !req
138. Ha! I can live with that,
baby girl.
Copy !req
139. Good.
Because I need a favor.
Copy !req
140. I realize, Cheshire,
that we'll probably never be friends.
Copy !req
141. You can leave out
the "probably."
Copy !req
142. But we both want
to keep your sister safe.
Copy !req
143. So we play it out.
You start.
Copy !req
144. Well, Cheshire, I don't usually
condone the behavior of assassins,
Copy !req
145. but given the way Manta's
treated me the last few weeks...
Copy !req
146. The enemy of your enemy
is your friend.
Copy !req
147. Exactly.
Copy !req
148. Make your escape.
I'll buy all the time you need.
Copy !req
149. It's not that simple.
I still want Aqualad and Manta dead.
Copy !req
150. - Leave that to me.
- I insist.
Copy !req
151. So, who's first,
you or your degenerate son?
Copy !req
152. Kaldur'ahm!
Copy !req
153. - Father, are you all right?
- Fine. Just fine, now.
Copy !req
154. Yeah. "So glad it turned out
you're not dead, baby girl."
Copy !req
155. Favor done, baby girl.
Copy !req
156. Now, no one will know
what you've been up to.
Copy !req
157. Well, that was a nice father-daughter
outing. We should do this more often.
Copy !req
158. - Don't push it, dad.
- Leaving so soon?
Copy !req
159. - And without a good-bye?
- Good-bye.
Copy !req
160. I've got Cheshire!
Copy !req
161. You're a chump, Slade.
Copy !req
162. The Light betrayed me.
They'll betray you, too.
Copy !req
163. Not if I take
a seat at their table.
Copy !req
164. Love the new look, sis.
Reminds me of me.
Copy !req
165. So I know dad was only here
to protect his rep,
Copy !req
166. but you risked everything
to avenge me.
Copy !req
167. - That's so sweet.
- Let's not get teary-eyed.
Copy !req
168. I was just mad you weren't
around to baby-sit your niece.
Copy !req
169. Stop toying with her
and finish it!
Copy !req
170. - M'gann!
- Incoming!
Copy !req
171. - I'll finish him.
- Sorry, no.
Copy !req
172. I've been dreaming
of my revenge for weeks.
Copy !req
173. Don't push your luck, Sporty.
Copy !req
174. - You're lucky I'm letting you get away.
- Fine. We're gone.
Copy !req
175. Now, let's see what fun
I can have with you two.
Copy !req
176. Yes, let's.
Copy !req
177. M'gann, get out
before he captures you again!
Copy !req
178. - Right, right! And sorry.
- About what?
Copy !req
179. - Thanks again for watching Lian.
- My pleasure.
Copy !req
180. You should cherish this time
with your daughter, Jade.
Copy !req
181. You never know.
Copy !req
182. Mom, I've got something
to tell you about Artemis.
Copy !req
183. Some good news.
Copy !req
184. It is the best of news.
Copy !req
185. My son is whole again.
Copy !req
186. Seeing me in mortal danger was
the vital catalyst his recovery required.
Copy !req
187. I truly feel blessed.
Copy !req
188. Congratulations.
Copy !req
189. In fact, it has been a good day
for us all.
Copy !req
190. And in my role as The Reach's
ambassador to your world,
Copy !req
191. I want to take this opportunity
to thank this great hero,
Copy !req
192. a hero who almost single-handedly saved
the planet Earth from the Warworld.
Copy !req
193. He saved your lives.
He saved our lives.
Copy !req
194. Ladies and gentlemen,
I give you...
Copy !req
195. Blue Beetle!
Copy !req
196. Thank you.
Thank you all.
Copy !req
197. But it is I who should express
gratitude to you, Ambassador,
Copy !req
198. for giving a normal,
average human being like me
Copy !req
199. the power of The Reach,
the power to save the world.
Copy !req
