Supergirl (2015–…): Season 5, Episode 19 - Immortal Kombat - full transcript

Previously on Supergirl...

The shrinking and collection
of worlds

is a common practice
among our ancestors.

William and I discovered
that Eve Tessmacher

has been working for Obsidian.

If you're going to be a vigilante,

maybe you should get
better at hiding.

What do you mean, like, wear a mask?

I don't know who this Brainy is.

But I know I don't trust him.

Andrea knows nothing.



Seems on this Earth, post-Crisis,
Leviathan hasn't activated her yet.

Gemma Cooper is warming to me.

And when she sees my newest present,

she'll roll out the red carpet.

And if that means helping them
get a weapon or two, so be it.

You know what this weapon is,

so you know what it needs.

Get it for me.

And this time, do not fail.

Regarding your request
to meet my colleagues,

I'll send you a car tomorrow morning.

See you tomorrow.

I have made a terrible mistake.

Lex is working with Leviathan,



and they are going to use
Obsidian to do something terrible.

I want to help stop them.

An elevator?

Seems a little pedestrian
for a goddess of technology.

Welcome to Leviathan.

You know...

I pride myself

on seeing things.

Connections where others
see only coincidence.

Pathways where others see only walls.

I anticipate everything.

But I must admit,

I didn't not except you
to live in a casino.

After you.

One small step from that...

Lex Luthor.

The fabled man of tomorrow.

At least you have the decency
to bow before the gods.

I told you to disable the shields.

As long as he knows
where we live it stays on.

At all times.

- On whose orders?
- Whose do you think?

The ship's defense mechanism.

A proto-focused radiation shield.

This pin will protect you.

Wow, you really know how to
make your guests feel welcome.

Well now the, uh...

...pleasantries are out of the way,

Don't you think we
should discuss our plan

to take out Supergirl
and her friends?

These rings

bought you a ticket to
board our ship.

So enjoy your photo op.

But leave the slaughter
of Supergirl to us.

Thank you for letting me in, Kara.

It's been a year and I still haven't
come to terms with what I did.

Shot my brother and...

I mean, I thought I was
protecting everyone

but it really started all that...

I don't want to talk about the past.

All that matters now is

the threat ahead of us and how
we are going to stop it.

Understood.

Get down on the ground, now.

No, Alex, no.

You texted 911.

Not about her.

She's here to help us stop Lex.

And Leviathan.

Oh.

So Lex and Leviathan
are planning something

using Obsidian virtual
reality platform.

And my tech likely made
that possible.

That must be why Rama Khan
went after the DEO's Kryptonite.

To keep Supergirl from interfering.

Well, the joke's on Rama Khan

and his big dumb gladiator outfit.

Because I have already
defeated him once.

Don't be rash, Kara.

He's tied to the Earth.

Which means he can track
your slightest movements.

If you use your powers even once,

he will sense them,

and attack.

With all that
Kryptonite at his fingertips,

he could kill you.

You guys will protect me.

Just like we protected the DEO?

It's not checkmate.

Not yet.

I haven't made Kara an
anti-Kryptonite suit in this world.

But I could.

Just need to get you
safely to my lab.

Your lab is across the city.

And Kara can't use her powers.

We could get her there.

If we had the right distraction.

Or the right decoys.

No, no, no way.

Absolutely not.

I can tell those pants will chafe.

Ugh! I was right.

I quite like it.

This is just like the
beginning of Deathly Hallows.

Moody and Hedwig died.

You lost comrades in battle?

My condolences.

No, it's...

Dreamer and I will
draw Rama Khan out in Courtney Park.

M'gann, Alex,

you move across the rooftops
to cover us.

While they're distracting Leviathan,

you and I will make our way
to LuthorCorp.

Come here.

I have to show you something.

Okay. Stay right there.

Oh, my God.

J'onn made it for me.

She looks great.

Oh, it was a scream of delight.

Thank H'ronmeer.

Well, we should probably get going.

Stay safe out there.

I know that may not
have been the most

pleasant experience.

But Rama Khan was just
trying to protect the base.

Not only Ram Khan, it seems.

And here I was thinking you
were the top of the food chain.

I answer to another.

Took me a long time
to gain her trust.

Which is why the Unity
Festival must succeed.

I'm yours.

Whatever you need.

Keep it.

You've earned it.

That's why I brought you to the ship.

You're one of us now.

Today is the last day of the old era.

Tomorrow the future begins.

Did you get the ship's location?

Indeed.

But it has a nasty defense mechanism.

They gave me something
to protect from it.

Give it to me.

Not yet.

We've come all this way...

We have done all
those terrible things,

so that I can sneak up
aboard the Leviathan ship

and upload the mortality code,
so that I can kill the immortals.

And we shall.

But first, Rama Khan and his
element-bending goons

need to eliminate Supergirl's
friends one by one.

And when she has nothing left...

they'll slay her, too.

After that you kill the gods.

You think I'm just gonna sit back

while Leviathan murders my friends?

Former friends.

And yes, I think you will.

Because if you get on
that ship any sooner,

you'll die with them.

Leviathan is the enemy, Lex.

Not Supergirl, not J'onn J'onzz.

- Not Dreamer.
- You're right.

They're heroes.

They would happily sacrifice
themselves to save the world.

Maybe they'll even thank us.

There's no place I can't find you.

That's where you're wrong.

M'gann you're off the hook.

We've got Rama Khan.

Copy that.

We're on our way.

Wait.

There's someone else.

Another element bender.

Gotcha!

There's more than one of us, too.

Kara, we got her.

Kara, come on, we've gotta go.

Dreamer.

Dreamer, what happened?

J'onn, no.

Go. Go, go, go.

The suit won't be ready for
at least another few hours.

But I'm doing everything in my
power to speed it along.

Hey.

What happened?

It's just not Rama Khan out there.

There's three of them.

Each with different
element-bending power.

Where are the others?

J'onn was injured.

M'gann and Dreamer
are taken back to the tower.

I should have been there,

fighting alongside you, I'm sorry.

Kara, it's okay.

We all still have our ears.

Kelly, hey.

Oh, thank God I got you.

William texted me last night,

that he was going after
Eve Tessmacher.

I haven't been able to
reach him since.

William went after Eve alone?

No super-hearings.

- Sorry.
- Eve Tessmacher?

She's back?

Look, I'll get to you as
soon as I can.

Hey, if this Eve is working with Lex,

William has no idea
the danger he is in.

I...

Alex, I have to do something.

I can't just sit here.
I have to help him,

- somehow.
- Okay, listen to me. Stop.

I know how hard it is for you
to sit on the sidelines.

Okay, but Kelly and I,
we will handle this.

We will access Eve's files
at Obsidian North

and we'll see what she's up to.

And if she has gotten
to William, hey.

We will find him.

You just need to stay safe
until Lena finishes your suit.

Okay, all right, fine.

But please, be careful.

You know me.

Yeah, exactly,
that's what I'm worried about.

Come on

Satellite uplink is nearly ready.

We should launch.

Gemma?

I was communicating with her.

- The news isn't good.
- What is it?

Tezumak managed to
injure one of the Martians.

But Supergirl never even joined

the fight and the others got away.

I've gambled everything on
this Unity Festival.

Then we have to make sure
it goes off without a hitch.

Lex, Gemma...

It's time.

So?

Shall we begin ending the world?

Al's dive bar?

This is where you summoned
me at a time like this?

It's the place where you first
gave me this mission.

Work with Lex Luthor.

Defeat Leviathan.

No matter the cost.

Today I will feel the full
extent of that cost.

Querl.

I know things spun out of control

last time you disobeyed Lex.

But you don't have to do this.

You don't have to let
your friends die.

I don't plan to.

I don't plan on using Lex's
mortality code on the gods, either.

But how will you defeat them?

By using this.

Rather than kill the gods.

And I shall reclaim
the actions of our ancestors.

For good.

Instead of evil.

I'll shrink them.

I'll bottle them here in stasis,

where they can harm neither
this planet nor my friends.

But if you enter the ship

without Lex's
anti-radiation pin, you'll...

You'll... You'll die.

I pushed away everyone I loved

because you told me I must.

You were right.

This planet...

my friends...

It's worth it.

I called you here simply because...

I don't wanna die alone.

Citizens of the world.

Today we stand on the
precipice of history.

Ours is a world of pain, suffering.

Of conflict, of chaos.

But when you enter
Obsidian's world...

The problems of the real
one melt away.

In virtual reality, there is
nothing to want.

No reason to harm one another.

It's a place where we can be
our best and truest selves.

This world can be our real world.

And it all starts today.

With the Obsidian
Worldwide Unity Festival.

Oh, nice.

Did someone call for tech support?

I just said a mask, but...

Wow.

Bummer we have to get to
straight to business.

Yeah, I guess you inspired me.

I could have never
gotten past security.

My girlfriend's a badass.

Breaking into a tech
corps, that's easy.

What I battled earlier today...

These are gods.

I mean, I finally got
this baby working.

But compared to what those
guys are packing...

I might as well have brought
a slingshot.

I've never felt so human.

Oh, wait, wait, we got something.

Eve's IP address.

- Okay.
- Wait.

It's encrypted.

Better call Lena.

These programs should be able to
crack Eve's cipher in minutes.

Talk about history repeating itself.

Tracking Lex down through Eve...

It's just like Kaznia.

Please, Kara, I'm sorry.

Okay, I truly believed what I
was doing was helping people.

I told you I don't want
to talk about the past.

Oh, come on, you can scream
at me if you'd like.

I know I deserve it.

I know now that working with Non Nocere
was a mistake, that working with Lex...

This isn't about Lex.

This is about J'onn and Alex

and all the other people that
could have been killed today

because they are on my team.

Don't you understand that?

No, I do, of course I do.

No you don't.

You have never understood

what it means share a secret
identity with someone.

How much danger that puts them in.

You... You never even understood

that I kept my identity from you
because I wanted to protect you.

I know, I know

that I hurt you

by waiting so long to tell my truth.

But what about all
the ways you hurt me?

You pretended to be my
friend for weeks.

Just so you could manipulate me.

You stole from me.

You convinced me to steal for you.

And then, then, you even...

You used Kryptonite on me.

I made one mistake.

One mistake

that was only ever meant
to protect you.

And in return,

all you did was hurt me
in every way imaginable.

I'm sorry.

I know you are.

But if you came to me looking
for absolution,

I can't give it to you.

It's Eve's location.

I'm going.

No, Kara, your suit isn't ready yet.

I don't care.

Protecting people is what I do.

You should know that by now.

Then I'm going with you.

Now that you're up,
you better start talking.

Why were you following me?

I'm pursuing a story on Lex Luthor.

I know he is up to something
criminal.

I don't know your involvement.

But I believe you've been
working for him.

You have no idea what
you have gotten yourself into.

You should have stayed out of it.

Now I have no choice.

I'm a journalist.

Okay, I can read people.

You're a good person who
looks trapped.

It's clear you're not a killer.

What does he have on you?

Did he threaten someone
you care about?

My mother.

I am so sorry.

But you don't have
to fight this alone.

I can help you and your mother.

We can bring the truth to light.

If the truth comes to light,
my mother is dead.

Eve, please.

I really am so sorry.

It's okay. I've got you.

Okay. The bullet went
through and through

through but we still need to
get you to a hospital.

No, no, no, he's losing to much blood.
There's no time.

Okay.

I can cauterize it but it's
gonna hurt.

- Do it, do it.
- All right.

Don't do it.

Too late, too late. It's done.

You okay?

Yes, it just hurt.

All right, what happened here?

I was following a lead.

Got jumped.

Ah, Reporting 101.

If you get kidnapped,
you must be on the right track.

Something Kara Danvers likes to say.

She was working the case with me.

I need to make sure she is all right.

Kara is fine.

I spoke to her,
she's in a safe place.

Get William and Eve out of here.

I'll deal with this.

Are you mad? They've got Kryptonite.

Well, then you'd better get
that suit here fast.

It's already on its way.

And I'll call for back-up.

Kill her.

Did someone call for backup?

Now it's a fair fight.

Couldn't let you have all the fun.

Can't believe you left to play
earth, wind and fire without us.

They're...

They're gone.

The explosion killed them.

We have to get out of here.

Now.

Let's replenish ourselves and
finish this once and for all.

That's when their bodies started to
reform like out of a horror movie.

Yeah, but that means...

They're indestructible.

Immortal.

This isn't about defeating
them anymore.

They want us to fight until we drop.

So they can distract us from
whatever Lex is planning.

Do we even know what that is?

I'm gonna go find out.

Eve.

Eve, can you hear me?

- Is the reporter okay?
- Yes.

He told us everything.

Please understand...

I was just trying to protect my mom.

Now Lex is gonna kill her.

I know you must feel
like there is no way out.

But it is when things feel
their most hopeless

that we have to dig down deep

to do what is right.

Otherwise the bad guys win.

Help us, Eve.

Help us fight.

And I promise I will do everything in

my power to keep you
and your mom safe.

Gemma Cooper is not
who she says she is.

Her real name is Gamemnae.

She is a member of Leviathan,
just like Rama Khan.

Tonight they are planning
to attack the Unity Festival.

Once all four million
subscribers are inside...

Gemma will kill them all.

I recommend the chocos.

How's J'onn?

Recovering.

You can't fool a sidekick.

I saw you hesitate during the fight.

You dreamed something.

And it terrified you.

What did you see?

Brainy.

You two were couple, right?

You know J'onn.

For a deeply serious man,
he's got a big mouth.

I know.

It was more than a relationship.

We were partners.

We...

protected each other.

Turns out that one thing I couldn't
protect him from was himself.

I told him to take
off those inhibitors.

Maybe these dreams
are because of my guilt.

There may be more to what he's
going through than you know.

When J'onn discovered
that I was a White Martian.

He thought the worst of me.

Until he finally saw my soul.

I'm not a telepath.

No, you're a dreamer.

And like it or not,

you're dreaming now.

You have to engage with it.

It could have meaning far deeper

than you realize.

I'm sorry M'gann, I need to be
keeping Brainy out of my mind,

not letting him in.

There is nearly a billion people
logged into the Unity Fest already.

Can we shut down the system?

Or destroy it somehow?

No.

The Luthor power core has
an indestructible fail safe.

So, you're saying we need to convince
potentially billions of people

to log out of virtual reality
paradise of their own free will.

Hope you've got one of those
classic hope speeches handy.

I mean, I've done it before
but never on this level.

Oh, if anyone can do it, it's you.

Jinx.

All right, so what do we
do about Leviathan?

We'll fight till our last breath.

J'onn, are you sure?

With you by my side, 100%.

Well, we'll need to do something
to drive Leviathan out.

I'll send them a message.

- What are you going to say?
- Something to get their attention.

That arrogant Martian thinks
he can speak to me like that?

I'm a god!

Once we're done with this
world, I'll turn to Mars next.

Now's your chance.

Place your hand on
the central terminal.

You'll be able to upload
the shrink code.

Now you can't move your
hand or else you have to start over.

The upload will take ten minutes.

I don't know if I can last that long.

You can.

I'll be with you the whole way.

Kelly opened the
back door into the festival.

It should help protect you
from the kill switch.

Hopefully we get everyone out

before Lex and Gemma hit it.

You will.

Let's do this.

Wow.

This is amazing.

I've never seen anything like this.

No wonder so many people signed up.

There's still no sign of them.

Guess they didn't take the bait.

Maybe you should have been meaner.

Ah...

No.

I was just mean enough.

What? No Supergirl?

Let's see if we can't
convince her to join us.

- What's wrong?
- Supergirl.

She's inside the Unity Festival.

We need to hit the kill switch.

Wipe out as many people as possible.

Before she has a chance to interfere.

There aren't any enough
people logged in yet.

We need to get 50% saturation.

What good is wiping out
one quarter of the world

if the other three quarters
rise up against us.

We'll worry about that
problem tomorrow.

This is about tomorrow.

You told me you answer
to a higher power.

How will she feel

when you give in on the
mission before it's complete?

And if Supergirl is in
the Unity festival,

then her physical body is vulnerable.

Rama Khan, Tezumak and Sela

might be able to
make it back in time.

They need to take out
Supergirl's friends.

Then what do you propose?

Send another assassin.

Someone who won't fail you.

Hi.

We are nearing
two billion simultaneous users.

Our dreams are finally a reality.

Not just our dreams, Andrea.

Your father's.

Hm.

And Leviathan's.

Leviathan?

How do you know that name?

Because I am Leviathan.

What does that mean?

All I know is that Leviathan
rescued me that day in the cave.

It was I who rescued you.

And I have been looking
out for you every day since.

But now I need your help.

Yes.

Yes, of course, anything.

There is great power in you.

I know you feel it.

The power of shadows.

I need you to use that power...

to kill Supergirl.

What?

No. I don't...

I can't.

Yes, you can.

And when you do,

you'll have power beyond
your wildest dreams.

And your company will be untouchable.

If you don't,

your company will collapse.

You will lose everything.

Your father will be crushed.

We both know he won't be
able to survive the blow.

Everyone listen to me.

There is something wrong
with the program.

You need to end the simulation now.

What are you talking about?

There is no one in here but
my late husband.

It's so good to hear his voice.

Hey. Hey, kid.

Kid, can you hear me?

You need to disengage
from the program.

Leave me alone.

My mom is back.

I missed her.

It's...

It's not working.

There are too many people,
they feel connected to their loved ones.

It's spiritual.

I have no idea how to
break through to them.

I think I can give you a way
to talk to everyone at once.

Try now.

I need you all to listen to me.

You're in danger.

If you and I fan out to the
side we can draw their fire.

While you two attack
through the middle.

- Sound good?
- Why not?

- You ready?
- Nope.

Me neither.

Let's go.

Five more minutes.

Stay focused.

Andrea.

The medallion.

You've been activated.

If I don't kill Supergirl,
they'll kill my father.

I know it can be addictive,

to live in a perfect place
where nothing hurts.

But that's not reality.

Killing for them...

Going down this path,
it won't keep him safe.

How do you know?

Because I've been down it before.

We all get hurt.

But it's only by going
through that pain

that we're able to
appreciate the good.

Pain is what helps us grow.

Without it, we'd never be able to...

To evolve, to overcome.

To forgive.

I have done terrible things

to protect myself and
the people I love.

But it has never kept
me safe from pain.

It's just brought me
a new kind of misery.

And I moved further and further

away from the person
I was, until one day

I woke up and I was utterly alone.

Each of us came here
because we are afraid.

I'm afraid of getting hurt,

just like you.

And I do everything I can

to escape pain, just like you.

But the cost of escape is too great.

Years ago...

we made a promise to each other.

You jump, I jump.

If you choose to go down this path...

I will be there.

If you want to get to Supergirl,

you're gonna have to go through me.

We have to wake up now.

We need to end the simulation

once and for all.

I believe in you.

I believe in you.

I believe in you.

Hey, it's okay, it's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

End simulation.

End simulation.

End simulation.

End simulation.

Go...

on...

I had hoped you'd die screaming.

But I'll take what I can get.

What have you done?

I...

beat...

you.

What's happening?

The Coluan.

I never thought I'd see the day.

Obsidian Platinum,

the most popular
VR platform ever created.

And not a single person is using it.

Alex called...

Leviathan has disappeared.

You did what you said you would.

Almost.

I still have one promise
left to keep.

You did it, Querl.

You did it.

You saved this world.

You saved your friends.

Will you...

...stay with me?

Till the very end.

Nia.

Who do you think you are?

We had a plan.

Leviathan kills Supergirl
and you kill Leviathan.

And together we save this planet

from the invulnerable aliens,

who think they know
what's best for mankind.

Why couldn't you just wait

for Supergirl to die?

Underestimated me.

My friends.

I'd never let you kill them.

No, Braniac 5.

Uh, I underestimate nothing.

I knew you would decide to shrink
the gods instead of kill them

due to your precious moral code.

I planned for that.

I just didn't think that
you would kill yourself.

Well...

Supergirl lives.

But, I have the ball.

No...

You gave me exactly...

what I needed.

I'm just gonna kill Supergirl myself.

It'll be fun.

And you...

can die alone.

Just like you intended.

No, no, no, Brainy.

I should have listened to you.

It's Brainy.

He stopped Leviathan.

He saved us.

He needs my help.

Oh...

Oh, my God.

It's actually you.

In the last world, she betrayed us.

We may never know what
was driving her, but...

I do know what was driving you.

You didn't want to tell me
who you really were

because you didn't want
me to get hurt.

But I did get hurt.

And I did what I always do
when people hurt me.

I...

built a wall and I
suffocated behind it.

Makes it very difficult to see things

from other people's point of view.

But I see yours now.

And I am very sorry it
took me so long.

You know, when you showed
up at my door this morning I...

I didn't wanna let you in.

And I kept waiting for
you to let me down.

But at every turn you came through.

Building that suit.

Protecting my identity,
supporting me.

I wasn't ready to accept
your apology.

But maybe, maybe I am now.

Okay.

What now?

Well, there is one bad guy
left to catch.

Let's go take my brother down.

Let's get to work, Doc.

Right away, dear.
