Village Leader
[in English]
How dare this dog speak to us like children. "Ooh, magical man from the sea." We are poor, not stupid. Get out!
I'm sorry. Can't do that. I'll leave after we've spoken.
Arthur Curry [walks closer to Bruce Wayne]
He said get out.
Arthur Curry So, let me get this straight. You do it dressed like a bat? Like an actual bat?
Worked for 20 years in Gotham.
Arthur Curry Oh, that shithole.
Arthur Curry [while he takes his jacket and sweatshirt off]
"Strong man is strongest alone." You ever heard that?
You ever hear of Superman? He died fighting next to me.
Arthur Curry [throws his sweatshirt to the ground and walks into the water]
My point exactly.
Nuidis Vulko
Our people suffer-
Arthur Curry Your people. A brutal, petty, superstitious race.
Nuidis Vulko
Is the Surface any different?
Arthur Curry Nobody calls me king of the Surface.
Burn down a house, the particles still exist; particles of house become particles of smoke.
Anybody with a match can turn a house to smoke.
Arthur Curry But a Motherbox...
Turns smoke back into a house.
...I know we're all thinking the same thing right now. Who's gonna say it? I'm not gonna say it.
[Cyborg activates a hologram of Henry Cavill's Superman. He flies off, dramatically, into the clouds as Bruce stares on.]
Arthur Curry You know, my father told me there's a saying in Atlantis: 'None are taken back from the darkness, not without-'
Arthur Curry How about that?
[Meanwhile, Barry and Victor are busy digging up Clark Kent's body from his grave.]
Wonder Woman! [pauses to think] What do you think, man? You think she'd ever go for a younger guy?
She's 5,000 years old, Barry. Every guy is a younger guy.
Arthur Curry [to Bruce]
Fighting the devil and his army, in Hell.
[on Steppenwolf]
I mean, this- this guy has probably fought hundreds of thousands of other superbeings on the other planets he's destroyed, right? And we have to assume he's won.
I don't care how many demons he's fought in how many hells... he's never fought us. Not us united.
Arthur Curry We're asking a kid who just lost his father to go up against the most powerful machines in the universe. It's not fair.
I thought you didn't care.
Arthur Curry I never said that.
Silas Stone
[Cyborg plays Silas's tape on the tape recorder.]
Now, let me speak to you from my heart, not as a scientist, as a father. [chuckles] Your father twice over. I brought you into the world and back into it. You can't imagine how proud I am of who you are. Have always been. [Cyborg looks at the picture of him, his father, and his mother Elinor Stone, and he chuckles softly] So many years with you I wasted. So many wrongs I've left un-righted. Everything breaks, Victor. Everything changes.
Arthur Curry [At Iceland, Arthur Curry bids farewell to Nuidis Vulko and Mera.]
I gotta go see my father.
Silas Stone
[Arthur Curry goes to the truck as he hops onto the bed truck and the truck engine starts and then the truck drives.]
The world is hurt. Broken. Unexchangeable.
Scientist
[At S.T.A.R. Labs, Ryan Choi looks at the Scout Ship 0344.]
Ship's all yours now, kid. You're the boss. "Ryan Choi, Director of Nanotechnology." That's your thing.
Ryan Choi
Uh, yep. [sighs] That's my thing.
Silas Stone
But the world's not fixed in the past, only the future. The not yet. The now.
[Bruce Wayne opens the door and he enters an abandoned room with Alfred Pennyworth and Diana Prince.]
Wow. Must be 100,150 feet.
Must be.
Uh, big round table. Six chairs, right there.
But room for more.
But room for more. God help us.
Silas Stone
The now is you.
Henry Allen
[Meanwhile, at Central City Prison, Barry Allen places the job application on the glass.]
What?
It's actually the worst job you can get in a crime lab. But, uh, my foot's in the door.
Henry Allen
This is like a "job" job?
"Job" job.
Henry Allen
[laughs softly]
Your foot's in the door.
Isn't that a thing people say?
Henry Allen
Your foot's in the door. Yeah, that's something people say, man. His foot's in the door! [the prisoners cheer] That's my boy right here! Taught him nothing he knows! Yes! [laughs]
Oh, gosh. Oh, gosh. Dad, you're gonna get maced again.
Henry Allen
No stopping you now.
Silas Stone
Now. Now's your time, Victor, to rise.
[At the Kent farmhouse, the movers bring the furniture back to the house.]
Thank you is not enough for what you did.
I just undid a mistake, that's all.
[Clark chuckles as he sees Martha Kent and Lois Lane bring appliances to the house and they smile.]
How'd you get the house back from the bank?
I bought the bank. Congratulations, by the way.
Silas Stone
Do this. Be this. The man I never was. The hero you are. Take your place among the brave ones. The ones that were, that are, that are yet to be.
Silas Stone
[At the cemetery in Gotham City, Cyborg looks at the tombstone with a picture of Victor Stone and his parents as he smiles and flies off. At night, Commissioner James Gordon turns on the Bat Signal as Batman looks at it while he stands on his Bat-Tank.]
It's time you stand, fight, discover, heal, love, win.
Silas Stone
[At the shrine of the Amazons, Diana Prince looks at the sea as she takes one look at the arrow of Artemis. At Central City, The Flash runs happily on the street.]
The time is now.
[At Metropolis, Clark Kent takes off his glasses and unveils his silver suit from his shirt.]
