The President
- J'onn J'onzz: [after the Watchtower remotely fires on Earth] Mr. President, I know this looks bad.
- The President: Is that supposed to be some kind of Martian humor?
- J'onn J'onzz: No, sir.
- The President: I need some answers, J'onn. Why exactly did the Justice League destroy a high-security R&D facility?
- J'onn J'onzz: All appearances to the contrary, the Justice League did not fire the binary fusion weapon.
- The President: Sure looked that way from down here.
- J'onn J'onzz: It was activated remotely by person or persons unknown.
- The President: I'd like to believe you, J'onn.
- J'onn J'onzz: We've never given you any reason to doubt our word, sir.
- The President: Even so, I've repeatedly expressed my strongest disapproval of you guys having that space cannon floating over everybody's head.
- J'onn J'onzz: If we'd had it during the Thanagarian invasion, we might have avoided a great deal of suffering. We don't intend to be caught unprepared a second time.
- The President: I don't wanna have this argument again. You're not holding a strong hand right now anyway. My people are investigating this incident. You guys have saved the world more times than I've shot under par, so we give you a lot of slack, but if it turns out you are responsible, the full weight of the United States government is coming down on you. Got it?
- The President: I'm surprised to hear from you, Amanda. My boys at NSA are reporting that you're dead.
- Amanda Waller: We had a security breach at Cadmus. I had the facility scrubbed and moved per standard protocol. The Justice League fired on an abandoned facility.
- The President: So there were no casualties?
- Amanda Waller: Not for lack of trying.
- The President: We don't know that for sure yet.
- Amanda Waller: This was retaliation, sir. Pure and simple. We captured the Question, they bust him out, and an hour later, it's death from above.
- The President: If you're right, it's our worst fears realized.
- Amanda Waller: Yes, sir. What are you gonna do about it?
- The President: I'm weighing my options.
- Amanda Waller: Mr. President, if we're where I think we are, Cadmus is your only option.
- The President: I'll let you know, Amanda. Stay on high alert.
