Second star!
I'm just an average man ♪
With an average life ♪

Everybody, I'm home!
All I want is to be left alone ♪
Oh, hey. Don't forget we're
going out with your folks tonight.
Oh, shit.
Where are we going?
Well, it's your mom's birthday.
- Damn it.
- So I assume
she's expecting Magnolia.
- Magnolia?
- Mm-hm.
It's Friday. We'll never
get in there now.
You do realize you're a terrible son.
I know I'm the worst.
What's going on?
What the hell?
Anthony
Mom?
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can and will be
used against you in a court of law.
You have the right to an attorney.
If you cannot afford an attorney,
one will be appointed for you.
There he is. Move it.
Hands behind your head.
Get down on your knees.
The sudden death of Alexander Luthor
continues to shock the world
as Superboy is detained in
connection with Luthor's death.
Let's go.
An official statement
from LexCorp does indeed confirm
that Superboy is and I quote,
"a genetic aberration",
a weaponized combination of Superman
and the late Lex Luthor's
genetic material.
Developed as a weapon,
and with great regret, it seems
he has become just that.
In this journalist's opinion,
I see a rush to judgement
against a young man that
wears a symbol of justice.
Let me hope that in Metropolis,
once the facts are known,
he can still receive it.
Oh, shit.
Uh, Dick?
You know what,
I'm glad he killed Lex Luthor.
Did the world a favor.
I heard he's some
sort of medical experiment
I can hear them.
People outside, what
they're saying about me.
I didn't kill him, Dick.
It happened the way I said it did.
I know.
We're gonna get you out of here, Conner.
And find the people who did this.
I've never seen anything like that.
I didn't know that
kind of power existed.
He was terrified.
No one should die like that.
Not even Lex Luthor.
How are they treating you in here?
Besides the Kryptonite?
Like I'm a murderer.
Like I'm the weapon I was created to be.
Lex was right.
All it takes is one mistake,
and you're the villain.
You didn't make a mistake.
You didn't do anything wrong.
And PD is just holding you here
until they figure out what happened.
This isn't over.
Dick
I
Mr. Grayson, Miss Anders,
time is up.
We need to question it.
His name is Conner.
This is bullshit.
You don't have to answer anything.
Yeah
I do.
It's okay.
I was born in a tube.
I'm used to being kept in a cage.
Mr. Grayson, we need
Yeah, I heard you the first time!
Okay. All right.
Let's go.
You know, part of me
wants to tell Conner
to just break out of this fucking place.
Hey, cool off.
Conner's doing what he
needs to. Now it's our turn.
We need to find the person
that killed Lex Luthor.
And I'm gonna stay on Conner,
make sure he knows he's not alone.
I gotta show you something.
What?
You sneaking pics of me, Grayson?
I wish.
Lex Luthor.
When Conner got arrested,
I did a brute-force hack
on his personal computer.
I found some of these and an address.
Why was he watching me?
I don't know. Wanna find out?
I'm bringing Rachel to Lex's penthouse.
See what she can find.
Good magic versus bad magic?
Bruce never thought
there was any difference.
Based on what Conner saw,
I'm starting to understand why.
Address sent.
Okay.
Kory, be careful.
- It could
- Be a trap. What's new?
Hear the one sound
in the noise, they say.
All right.
Okay.
Just just hear the one
sound in the noise, Tim.
Oh, Jesus!
Come on.
Oh! Jesus!
I thought
You were behind me, man.
- I know.
- Oh, my
Should've seen your face.
When you're tracking someone,
don't lock into what you heard.
Keep your senses open.
Everything in the environment
has a message.
I would appreciate
if you didn't tell Dick
I almost pissed myself.
Done.
Oh, Jesus.
Did you hear that?
What?
Gar
- Wait here.
- Gar?
Gar? Hey, wait!
Give up.
Gar!
Gar!
Access denied.
Come on.
Incorrect password. Access denied.
Come on. Come on, come on!
For an evil lair
that's a pretty weak lock.
I bet you're wondering why I'm here.
And what I know.
I know this is one
of Lex's little tree houses.
I know
that my friend Conner has
been accused of murdering him.
And that's bullshit.
And I know Luthor has been researching me.
Since you're here, I'm going
to assume you know why.
My name is Nelson Blake.
I didn't ask you that.
And I'm done asking any questions.
Speak.
It wasn't just Luthor.
The whole LexCorp
inner circle died last night,
choking on their own blood.
I'm the only one who's still alive.
I came here looking for answers.
I don't know why Luthor
was researching you.
Maybe maybe he thought
you could help him.
Help him with what?
Nelson
There is absolutely nothing
LexCorp can do to you later
that I won't do to you right now.
Help him with what?
Okay. Luthor's illness changed him.
He withdrew.
None of us had any personal
contact with him for over a year.
It was rumored
he got caught up in the occult.
Surrounded himself
with a bunch of advisers.
He stopped fighting the disease
and started fighting death itself.
What kind of advisers?
Doctors. Healers.
Some archaeologist woman.
- Nelson?
- Do you hear that?
Hear what?
It it sounds like chanting.
Nelson?
Help me. Please!
Gross.
All right, let's go.
We've gotta be quick.
They cleaned the crime scene.
Whatever happened here,
they wanna hide it.
They can't hide it from me.
Yeah, Conner was right.
Someone used magic.
How do you know?
Because all magic leaves a trace.
In the physical world, things pass.
But beyond the veil, things remain
like echoes.
So, I should be able to get
a sense of whoever did this.
This is where Alexander died.
Rachel
Rachel!
What did you see?
I don't know who did it, but
I've seen where they've been.
Come on.
Gar.
- Gar?
- I heard voices in my head.
Did you see anything?
No
You ran off, and then I found you here.
What did the voices say?
I
Not sure.
Dick wants us to meet him and Rachel.
Gar?
Yeah.
Mom, what're you doing?
Come on. You're supposed
to stay off that leg
- a couple more weeks they told.
- Okay. Sebastian. Okay!
- Oh.
- Okay.
Oh. So, how is Julie?
You never bring her by. I like her.
- Mom
- She's good for you.
Julie's busy, Mom.
She sends her love though.
Well, a good man deserves
a good woman by his side.
Yeah?
I want to be a great man, Mom.
Oh.
I find that its
crumbly texture really holds up in
Yes, I said that Miss Miller
is in the audience
looking very pretty in a red hat.
- I see it.
- Oh, there she is, yeah.
I didn't tell you, Mom. I've
got a big meeting coming up.
- Oh?
- About my interactive experience.
I'm close to finding the funding.
I think they really understand
what I'm trying to do.
Anyway, if it works out
There's nothing my Sabby can't do
when he puts his mind to it. Hm?
Mom
Oh. Already seen this one.
Yeah, but it's a good one.
you got my number, Miss Miller.
Thanks, Mom.
- This is what I saw.
- In your vision?
That address, this house.
Stay close. We don't know
what we're gonna find.
She has visions?
She didn't tell me she had visions.

Dick.
Oh.
Oh, Jesus!
Go watch the front door.
- Hey. You heard him, buddy.
- Mm-hm.
They got it from here. Come on.
You heard that?
Rachel!
I think she's in shock.
She might be seizing.
Hey.
No, she's in a nightmare.
He left her this way.
I'm calling the paramedics.
No! No, no, no, wait. I can help her.
Trust me.
All right.
It's okay. It's okay.
My name is Raven. What's yours?
Aria.
Hi, Aria.
Mommy and Dad?
I know. Hey, everything
is gonna be all right.
I'm gonna get you out of here.
It's him.
Bone-faced man.
Okay. I won't let him hurt you.
Okay?
Just stand up.
You're okay.
Shh.
Who are you?
Dick, what's happening?
Show me you face.
Rachel!
Raven!
Wrap your hands around me!
Hey, hey, hey.
Hey.
Hey. You're okay?
I saw him in the nightmare.
The man that killed Luthor.
I didn't see his face.
He's not far, but I don't know
where he's hiding.
That sound, I never heard
anything like that.
I have. It's the sound of dying animals.
You're safe. You're safe.
You're safe.
Luthor had files on you?
Yeah.
I preferred a world where
Lex Luthor and I weren't a thing.
Something violating about
knowing he was watching me.
If you wanted a window into his mind,
I could give you one.
He mentioned me?
No, but part of me knows how he thinks.
He is my father.
Lay it on me.
Lex was dying.
Dying men are careful with their time.
Sounds like he invested
a lot of time into you, Kory.
Lex Luthor would never invest anything
without expecting a return.
That doesn't make me feel any better.
I didn't want it to. Whatever this is
whatever he was doing, he believed
that you were connected to it.
If I were you, I'd spend a lot
of time thinking about how.
You can take the Luthor hat off now.
You're not him.
You have two fathers. Never forget that.
Two fathers
one creator made in his image.
I can hear everything that
people here say about me.
They will never let me forget what I am.
Dick and Rachel are going to find
out who is responsible for this.
Look me in the eye and tell me that will
make a difference to the people outside.
You don't owe them a fucking thing.
Miss Anders.
Visitation time is up.
I'll stay if you want me to.
They'll have to drag me out of here,
and we both know what'll happen.
No, it's okay.
Better play by the rules.
See where that gets you.
Kory.
Maybe you didn't find Lex's secret.
Maybe you found him searching for yours.
I think you'll find the retention rate
will exceed expectation.
And as the game continues, it
gets progressively more difficult.
Think Tetris, but on a
infinitely larger scale.
With your fiscal support, of course.
Hm.
Uh
The world is is a brutal place.
It's
It's cruel. Yeah.
People all all smashed up
against each other,
millions of miles apart.
We don't share anything.
We're all so alone.
Mr. Sanger, forgive me, but
It looks like you're just moving
shapes around the screen.
I think I speak for my
colleagues when I say,
I'm not certain where
this is competitive.
Well, it's not. I mean
not directly competitive.
The goal is
The goal is not to foster
competition amongst gamers,
it's to build community.
Mr. Sanger, your presentation
was well told.
And we love how passionate
you are about your idea.
Yeah. Mm-hm.
But I'm going to change the world.
I just need your help.
I'm certain you are. It's just
not a great fit for us at this time.
We're in a competitive
market, Mr. Sanger.
You have passion but
we need more than that.
Mr. Sanger.
Okay.
Maybe he went to change the world.
Sushi for lunch?
Slaughterhouse.
Dying animals.
He's here, somewhere close.
Did the knives and the
blood bowl give it away?
Starfire and I run point.
Rachel, keep sharp.
Collecting their blood.
Come out, come out, wherever you are.
Where are you?
It's Aria's father.
He's alive.
- Help me get him down.
- Oh, gosh.
- This guy's alive too. Tim, give me a hand.
- Got it.
Can you hear me? Hey.
We got you, buddy.
I know you're here.
Come out.
Get fucked.
Rachel.
Who are you?
Rachel?
Rachel.
- It's okay. It's okay, it's me.
- He did that to himself.
I didn't do that to him.
He did it to himself.
It's done now. That's all that matters.
No more nightmares.
What's wrong?
Um
For a second, I felt
something or someone.
It's gone now.
When the cops are done with this place,
they should burn it
to the fucking ground.
Mom?
Mom. I didn't
- And you have one child, right?
- One child.
- And you live in San Diego?
- Right.
You are the son, yes?
We tried to reach you.
She passed this morning.
I'm so sorry.
Take all the time you need here.
Again, I'm so sorry, Mr. Sanger.
Hey.
Doctors say your father will be okay.
Just needs a little bit more time.
My mom
Nobody will tell me
what happened to her.
But I saw her.
I know what happened.
I lost both my parents
when I was about your age.
What I remember
is how cold everything felt.
No matter what I did to get warm
I couldn't.
And then a very strong man
wrapped his jacket around me.
This jacket.
He told me that time
would make things better.
And it did. Here.
The girl that found me Rachel.
She used magic like the nightmare man?
No, Aria, nothing like him.
You see there's good magic
and bad magic.
The good magic always wins.
And keep the jacket.
Conner Kent, also known as Superboy,
has been exonerated
from any responsibility
in the death of Alexander Luthor Jr.
While Mr. Kent was in custody
for a crime he did not commit,
LexCorp has evaded all inquiry
into the circumstances
around Luthor's death.
A death that was an apparent homicide
still without official definition.
We know who killed Lex Luthor.
Everyone knows you're innocent now.
Arthur Homewood, Lex Luthor's
personal physician.
He promised him a lot more
than just a cure.
He trusted a madman.
Whatever power Luthor was buying,
looks like Dr. Homewood
wanted to keep it for himself.
I knew what people said about Lex.
What he did to me.
I just
I never thought he was capable of this.
You're not him, Conner.
No matter how much he wanted you to be.
I never want to come back
to Metropolis again.
No, he's got two.
It's your turn.
- Okay. Can I use this now?
- Yes.
- Let's go.
- What do you think is the better play here?
It's just a seven.
- Choose color.
- Yellow.
You okay?
Deathstroke and evil
Jason were one thing,
but what was in that slaughterhouse
No more stops until
we get to San Francisco.
We leave all that behind us.
And when all that shit
stops getting to you,
that's when you know you got a problem.
Is that when one starts
dressing like a bat?
Come on.
I'll quit then.
We're not alone.
Why is it never easy to leave this town?
This is just a hunch, but I'm
gonna assume she's a bad guy.
- She killed Lex.
- Are you certain?
It's not over till we stop her.
- Then let's finish this.
- Suit up.
Conner, wait!
- Check on Rachel.
- I got it.
Rachel?
Beast Boy!
Breathe.
Just breathe.
What happened?
You saved our ass.
Saved us from whom?
- Rachel.
- Nightwing!
- Rachel.
- What did she do to her?
No.
