Young Justice (2010–…): Season 4, Episode 24 - Episode #4.24 - full transcript

Welcome
to the Galactic Science Prison

of the Green Lantern Corps.

I'm probationary
Lantern Tomar-Tu.

My Ring is now
translating for us.

Please remain still
for a routine identity scan.

Scanning subject.

Scanning...

Scanning...

I'm sorry.

It doesn't usually
take this long.

- No hurry.
- Subject unknown.



Species, Daxamite.

No criminal record.

Ah, there we go.

How may the Corps
be of service?

I understand that the worst
of the worst are kept here?

Indeed, sir. That's very true.

I wanted to make an inquiry
about one of your inmates.

I believe he's known as
the "Kaizer-Thrall."

Ring, search,
Kaizer-Thrall.

"Kaizer-Thrall" has been
released

and is en route to
its planet of origin. Earth.

Ah! What else
can you tell me?

Um, nothing. Sorry.

The Thrall's status here
is a matter of public record.



Anything else is confidential.

Privacy concerns and all that.

I understand.

I believe
I knew your father.

Really?

He was a Green Lantern of
impressive skill and willpower.

May you follow
in his footsteps.

Thank you!

*YOUNG JUSTICE*
Season 04 Episode 24

Episode Title: " Zenith and Abyss"
Aired on: May 26, 2022.

Anyone got eyes
on S.B?

Nothing.

No sign.

You sure these
Kryptonians don't have superpowers?

No yellow sun,
no powers.

But don't get cocky.

They've been here a long time
and know the ropes.

If they spot us,
we'll all feel the mode.

Wait! There he is.

We see him.

- Do we move in?
- Not yet.

Okay. He's alone
in the open. Converge.

Conner.

Not bad.
Sounding pretty Big Blue.

Like a leader.

We both know
that's not my role.

Zone-Sickness.
Hallucinations. Ignore them.

Conner, it's us.
We're real.

We're here
to take you home.

Oh, really.

Then you must have
a way out of here.

Do tell!

Recognized
Miss Martian, B-0-5.

- You rang?
- Miss Martian, allow me to introduce...

Forager!

Forager's told me so much about you.
Does he know you're here?

He'll be so excited.

And Forager is excited
to see Forager as well.

But first, Forager has to attend to
Forager's Green Lantern Corps business.

This Kaizer-Thrall is known
as the Kaizer-Thrall.

On New Genesis, Kaizer-Thrall
was discovered to possess sentience.

Green Lantern Forager
and Green Lantern Kilowog

removed Kaizer-Thrall to Oa,
where Green Lantern Soranik Natu

discovered that Kaizer-Thrall's
Apokoliptan exo-shell

contains Kaizer-Thrall's
living human brain.

C'eridy'all...

We were hoping you could
establish communication.

Of course.

He's human, all right.

Meta-human.

His name is Danny Chase.

Age eleven.

He was a runaway.
Abducted, tested, activated,

trafficked...
to Apokolips...

Where he was given to Desaad...

who cut his brain out
and put it in this box.

Barbaric.

Apokoliptans
and their damn boxes.

Danny has telekinesis as well as
some multi-dimensional abilities,

which cause him
extreme pain,

or not just pain...

I think they're...
I think they're killing him.

Oh, I'm sorry. He'd like
to talk to us face to face.

Hey.

I'm Danny.

Danny Chase.

Forager is happy
to meet Danny Chase.

We are so sorry
this happened to you.

S' okay.

Or, you know,
it's not your fault.

I'm so happy
y'all can see me.

See who I really am.

We see you, Danny.

And I swear we will do
everything in our power to help you.

Incoming message
for Miss Martian.

Accept transmission.

Prince J'emm.

Hello, M'gann M'orzz.

I will come straight
to the point.

Though I do not wish
to raise false hope,

I have reason to believe

Conner Kent
may still be alive.

Then they're real.

You see them too?

Indeed.

Come on, guys.
One picture of the whole Team

before Roy joins the League
and gets too good for us.

Who exactly is supposed to take
this pic? We're the only ones here.

I can do it!

Yeah, you can.

We have nothing here,
nothing but each other.

I calculated using the Super
boy as bait would pay off.

I've been expecting another
attempt to retrieve him

ever since that Ghosty escaped
from the Zone.

Now you people
will release us all.

No problem.

Any friend of Super boy
is a friend of ours.

Super boy, does this friend
of yours speak the truth?

No.

- Conner.
- They're trying to play us.

They must learn
the House of Zod does not play.

The House of Zod conquers.

Conner, these are criminals.

The worst of the worst placed
here by Kryptonians decades ago.

You cannot side with them
against your oldest friends.

Remember who you are.

What we've all meant
each other.

- It's all broken.
- That can be fixed.

Trust me, I know.

M'gann can help you.

I know you can find
your way back to me.

I believe in you Conner.

No! I could never
go back to M'gann.

Why would you say that?

Because
I might hurt her.

You would never do that.

I would.

I'm a weapon,

a killer.

I killed Superman.

Recognized.

Superman 0-1.

All right, I'm here.
Let's do this.

Moving the Watchtower
above Earth's Zeta-Shield.

Good to go.

Prince J'emm,
we're ready here.

Coming across now.

Recognized.

J'emm J'axx A-5-0.

Phantom Girl A-5-1.

Prince J'emm J'axx of M'arzz,
you've met Superman.

Allow me to introduce Aquaman, Black
Lightning, Green Lantern, and Danny Chase.

I am most pleased
to make your acquaintances.

This young alien female,

who, in the style of your world,
calls herself "Phantom Girl,"

has an incredible story
that you need to hear.

Thank you, Prince J'emm.

To be clear, she has not fully
opened her mind to me.

But to the extent she has,
I believe she speaks the truth.

Or at the very least,
she believes she does.

Thank you, Prince J'emm.

Please allow me to create
a psychic link to her mind.

I'll cut right to it.

When the bomb went off
on Mars, I was there

and managed
to save Super boy /i>

using my ability to phase,
to make us both intangible.

But somehow, I also transported
us to a buffer dimension

called the Phantom Zone.

The journey
left me unconscious.

And while I was out, Super boy
fell under the influence of a pair

of dangerous
Kryptonian criminals named Zod.

They have a hold over him
I don't understand.

He wouldn't leave.

So I asked Prince J'emm
to help me find you.

I think you're the only one
who can bring him back.

And you must bring him back.

Can...

Can this be true?

I have reason to believe it is.

What are you up to?

There was a third Legionnaire
with these two.

I don't like not knowing where
she is or what she's up to.

These rings act as
communication devices.

If we can hack them,
we can locate her.

Perhaps even listen in
without her knowledge.

Or perhaps
there's a simpler solution.

No signal from Kid Flash D04,
Night wing B01,

Zatanna 25.

Um, Phantom Girl, have you
been able to reach your two friends?

How do you know about them?

I can't answer that right now.

But please answer me.

No, I haven't been able to reach
them, which is extremely concerning.

And also the main reason why I
have come to you people for help.

Your turn.
What aren't you telling us?

Not yet. I'm sorry, but I need
you to trust me until I know more.

So, Conner's alive, injured and so
troubled he wouldn't return with you?

- Yes.
- Please take me to him.

I'm sure I can convince him
to come home.

That's what I'm counting on.

But there's a problem.

I'm honestly not sure
if I can get back to the Zone.

I got there by accident, and I'm not
great at phasing other people anyway.

But it's okay.

There is a Phantom Zone
Projector on New Genesis.

No longer.

The New Genesis Phantom Zone
Projector was destroyed.

All right, we'll try.

You sure about this?

Am I sure about doing whatever
I must to get Conner back?

Do you really have to ask?

Is this the Phantom Zone?

No. It's Bgtzl. My home world.

Bgtzl in the 21st century.

In my time there's
a sparkling city here.

I must've... overshot the Zone.

Can we try again?

I'll link with you psychically, help
you focus on Conner and the Zone.

Let's do it

M'gann.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry

Conner.

You didn't kill Superman.

He's not dead.

The son of Jor-El lives?

Yes. We saw him just before
we came here.

This one told us
Kal-El was dead.

He also told us Krypton
was destroyed.

- Was that true?
- Yes, over 40 years ago.

I am sorry.

Then our sentences in this
hellscape will last an eternity.

We can create
a probationary court.

Consider each
of your cases, individually.

Yes, we can do that.

After we've been released
from the Zone.

We've already served
our full sentences.

So release us now
as a show of good faith.

I see.

You don't want to release us because
you fear our power under your yellow sun.

Not much has changed
in 40 years.

The House of El and the Kryptonian
High Council feared my power, too.

That's why we're here.

But if we can't leave,
you won't either.

That's so not up to you.

Isn't it?
Super boy, contain her.

Conner, stop!

We are trying to help you.

Take them, secure them all.

Sredluob, llaf no ym seof!

Zatanna.

Use your magic
directly upon them.

The rest of you,
forget your gear.

Use your training,
focus on your opponent.

Hand to hand combat only.

Leehwtrac yawa morf em!

Whom do you serve, Super boy?

What?

Whom do you serve?

I serve the House of Zod.

Prove it.

Fools.

Given all our years in the
Zone, training for this moment,

how could you believe
you could best my forces?

Erif...

Now, I believe you were
showing us the way out.

This just can't be happening.

How can Conner be alive
and still out of reach?

Really?

I better link us again.

Danny says he knows the
location of the Phantom Zone.

Uh, yeah. See, when
the Zone opened on New Genesis,

I was able to lock on to its unique
trans-dimensional frequency.

I can't get you there,
but I can guide you there.

Maybe together?

Sorry, no.
My powers are organic.

I don't "do" frequencies.

Even now,
psychically linked to Danny,

his intel is meaningless to me.

- What about a Mother box?
- That could work.

I've never linked with a Mother box,
but I have linked with Father boxes,

and they're basically
the same thing, right?

Basically. Just less evil.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

This was the power
that hurt you,

that was killing you.

I can't ask you...

I can manage it, one last time.

To help you and your friend,
the way y'all are helping me.

This does sound promising.

But where do we
get a Mother box?

Recognized.
Orion A-5-2.

Thank you for coming
on such short notice.

Per our treaty,
I could do no less.

But understand, if this works,

we'll be opening a Boom tube
not only for your friend,

but for every Kryptonian
criminal in the Zone.

So as a precaution, I had
Mother box locate Trombus,

an uninhabited planet under
the red sun, Gamma Crucis.

The planet has
an acceptable atmosphere.

If we Boom tube there,

we can safely open another
Boom tube to the Zone.

If any criminals emerge, they
won't gain yellow sun powers.

And we should be able
to handle them. Thank you.

Rocket's force bubbles
would be extremely useful.

We should summon her.

Actually, I tried to contact
Rocket and Night wing.

Tigress, Zatanna and Kaldur
to tell them about Conner.

I couldn't reach any of them.

Aquaman, hold down the fort.

I know this isn't your fight.

But M'arzz is forever indebted
to Conner Kent.

And any friend of Forager
is a friend of Forager.

Thanks. We appreciate the help.

Phantom Girl, are you there?

Cham?! Oh thank Bgztlqwar...
you're alive.

Is Imra with you?

I'm here.

Lor-Zod abducted us,

but we just managed
to escape in Bio-Ship.

Bio-Ship?

Excuse me. This is Superman.
Is Kid Flash there?

Right here,
big guy.

Are Night wing
and Zatanna with you?

Uh, no.
Are they working this too?

Cham, Imra, I have so much
to tell you both.

But here's the short version.

Super boy is alive.

That's great.

We are going
to the planet Trombus,

to open the Phantom Zone
and rescue him.

Okay, good.
We're close.

We'll meet you there.

Didn't
want to do this.

What is this?

It's called Kryptonite.

Deadly to any Kryptonian
or half-Kryptonian.

But it doesn't seem
to work here.

No.

It wouldn't.

Z, that was
my last trick.

Can you just zap S.B.
into the school bus?

Not if
he doesn't want to go.

His will is acting
as an anchor to the Zone.

Well, we can't
save him and fight him.

We need to regroup.
It's Glamour-Time...

Ruomalg, edih eht Maet!

I can feel my power
draining away.

If there's a fight,
I won't be of much use.

The other Kryptonians
won't have powers, either.

Meanwhile, we have
two Martians,

a Green Lantern, a New God,
and me.

I think we'll be fine.

You're sure you're okay
with this?

You're certain
you're all right with this?

We need to stop.
It's hurting Danny.

No, keep going.
I can take it.

Spread out. Find them.

No. You stay.

Searching for Conner now.

The rest of you,
stand ready.

I've seen this before.

It's of New Genesis.

Is that where it leads?

It's called a Boom tube.

It could lead anywhere.

It could be a trap.

Nevertheless, it's a way out.

Are you with me, my love?

Excellent.

Ursa, Faora,
Kon-El, you're with me.

The rest of you wait here.

What of the other Kryptonians
in the other Forts?

We'll assemble our army
when we know it's safe.

For now, no one else enters this
Boom tube without instructions.

Understood.

Conner! I can feel
your mind touch.

Can you hear me?

M'gann... No...

I can't go out there.

I can't risk it.

He's not coming out.
So we go in.

No, no... Not you.

Fractalize.

I will assume your risk.
I am your stability.

I am your constant.

Follow me. That's an order.

And where do we think
that goes?

No idea.

We can't let any more of these
Kryptonian criminals go free.

Agreed.

One way or another,
we have to plug that hole.

Ookir. Jeju.
Tiv Zhiutidh nim raopotiv...
