JE Jor-El
[As Clark exits the scout ship, wearing a black suit with a silver S symbol, the voices of his fathers echo through his head...]
All the hopes and dreams of Krypton live in you now.
JK Jonathan Kent
I'm so proud of you, son.
JE Jor-El
Your mother and I loved you.
JK Jonathan Kent
Your mother and I knew you would change the world.
JE Jor-El
Your heart was tested...
JK Jonathan Kent
I know it's been hard, Clark.
JE Jor-El
...but you gave hope to their world.
JK Jonathan Kent
You need to show them who you are.
JE Jor-El
Love them, Kal. The way we loved you.
JK Jonathan Kent
Fly, son. It's time.
[Bruce is having another Knightmare premonition]
Clear.
[Cyborg holds onto a destroyed car as he stands up.]
How much further?
Well, we need to hurry. We can't be out in the open much longer. He'll come for us.
M Mera
Let him come. Let the bastard come. I'll stab this through his heart for what he did to Arthur. I want to make him pay.
I understand how you feel, Mera.
M Mera
You have no idea how I feel.
But we have to stick to the plan to have any chance to make this right.
M Mera
[Mera scoffs as The Flash's helmet opens.]
Who have you ever loved?
J The Joker
[Joker's soft, maniacal laughter interrupts them.]
Au contraire, my little fish stick. He knows exactly what it's like to lose someone he loves. You know like, uh, a father? Like a mother?
Be very careful with the next thing you say.
J The Joker
Like an adopted son. Isn't that right, Batman? Maybe, in a way, that smelly old flounder is right. Because how many can die in your arms before you grow numb to death?
J The Joker
And how many dead eyes can you look into before you die inside yourself?
I've been dead inside a long time. But even I have a limit. [angrily] And if you cross that line, I swear to God, I will...
J The Joker
Before what, Bruce? Kill me? You won't kill me. I'm your best friend. Besides, who's gonna give you a reach-around? Anyway, you need me. You need me to help you undo this world you created by letting her die. Poor Lois, how she suffered so! I often wonder how many alternate timelines do you destroy the world because frankly, you don't have the cojones to die yourself. Hmm? So as usual, I'll be the bigger man. [holds out a Joker card] A truce, Bruce. As long as you have this card, a truce. But all you have to do is to tear it in half and I'm happy to discuss with you in any way you like, why you sent a Boy Wonder to do a man's job?
You know, it's funny that you would talk about people who died in my arms. Because when I held Harley Quinn, and she was bleeding and dying, she begged me with her last breath that when I killed you - and make no mistake, I will **** kill you - that I'd do it slow. I'm gonna honor that promise.
J The Joker
[after a long, tense pause, Batman takes the card]
Oh, you're good. You almost had me. [pause, laughs]
SS 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.
[At Iceland, Arthur Curry bids farewell to Nuidis Vulko and Mera.]
I gotta go see my father.
SS 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.
S 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.
RC Ryan Choi
Uh, yep. [sighs] That's my thing.
SS 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.
Uh, big round table. Six chairs, right there.
But room for more. God help us.
SS Silas Stone
The now is you.
HA 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.
HA Henry Allen
This is like a "job" job?
HA Henry Allen
[laughs softly]
Your foot's in the door.
Isn't that a thing people say?
HA 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.
HA Henry Allen
No stopping you now.
[chuckles softly]
Thanks, Dad.
SS 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.
SS 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.
SS 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.
SS 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.]
Bruce': I know you have abilities. I just don't know what they are.
My special skills include, uh, viola, uh, web design, fluent in sign language. Gorilla sign language.
[Sees the Flash suit]
Silica-based sand quartz fabric. Abrasion resistant. Heat resistant.
Uh, yeah, I do– competitive ice dancing.
It's what they use on the space shuttle to prevent it from burning up on re-entry.
I do– very competitive ice dancing.
