Brainiac 5
- Green Arrow: Admit it, genius, you're in love with her.
- Brainiac 5: Ludicrous, we've just met. Moreover, as a Coluan, I'm ruled by intellect, not emotion.
- Green Arrow: So in love with her.
- Brainiac 5: Increased sweat gland production, shortness of breath, inability to concentrate, I thought it was guilt... but I am in love. How did you know?
- Green Arrow: Just call me Cupid, junior. I never miss.
- [Supergirl, Green Lantern and Green Arrow have just arrived in the future]
- Brainiac 5: [greeting them] I'm certain that this must be disorienting for you. My name is...
- Supergirl: [viciously] Brainiac!
- Brainiac 5: Yes, how did you...? Uh oh.
- [Brainiac 5 shields himself as Supergirl attacks him]
- Brainiac 5: Yes, I am a Brainiac, but I'm not a machine. I'm organic. The universe-conquering Brainiac you knew is my distant ancestor. Over time, he learned how to pass his code down biologically. I am Brainiac 5. Think of me as the black sheep of my family, dedicated to doing good to make up for my ancestor's legacy of evil.
- Green Lantern: And you demonstrated that by kidnapping us.
- Green Arrow: [Brainiac crashes the Legion cruiser into the Fatal Five's mothership] I love the direct approach.
- Brainiac 5: The rest of the mission won't be so easy. Let's move.
- Brainiac 5: What do you pilot back home?
- Supergirl: Usually just a pick-up.
- Brainiac 5: A pick-up, is that a type of star cruiser?
- Green Arrow: Yes. Yes, it is.
- Brainiac 5: That was unnecessary. My belt protects me from any impact.
- Supergirl: Maybe I was just trying to cop a feel.
- Bouncing Boy: This stinks, Brainy. I hate running from a fight.
- Brainiac 5: They'll never think to look for us here. That gives us a chance to mount a counterattack.
- Bouncing Boy: Attack how? There's only the two of us left.
- Supergirl: [fighting Emerald Empress and the Persuader] So, what's your power? Super-strength? Speed?
- Brainiac 5: I have a 12th-level intellect.
- Supergirl: [sarcastic] Great, you can knock 'em out with your diploma.
- Supergirl: Why did you bring us here?
- Brainiac 5: We're part of a group called the Legion of Super-Heroes.
- Bouncing Boy: A galaxy-spanning force not unlike your Justice League.
- Brainiac 5: A team of criminals called the Fatal Five attacked our new headquarters, captured all our teammates.
- Bouncing Boy: They must have something big planned to risk taking on the Legion. But we can't figure what it is.
- Brainiac 5: We needed help, so we sent the time bubble to bring back some of Earth's greatest heroes.
- Supergirl: But why us?
- Brainiac 5: It... it was random. We'd have taken anyone.
- Supergirl: You guys get aboard that mothership and shut down the control devices.
- Green Arrow: What are you gonna do?
- Supergirl: Hold off John and the Legion until you snap them back to normal.
- Brainiac 5: You won't stand a chance against them.
- Supergirl: Maybe, but I'm the only one who does stand a chance of protecting the capital.
- Supergirl: So, I have to know, why'd you save me first?
- Brainiac 5: My decision was based on pure logic.
- Green Arrow: Really? 'Cause Green Lantern's the most powerful.
- Brainiac 5: No offense, but I really don't think you could follow the reasoning of a 12th-level intellect such as my own.
- Green Arrow: Guess not.
- Brainiac 5: Kara, I don't even know you, but... history says you never returned from this battle.
- Supergirl: What?
- Green Arrow: And you knew that all along?
- Brainiac 5: I'm sorry. I had hoped it wouldn't come to this. I wanted to spare her.
- Supergirl: There's still a planet full of people down there who need our help. Do your job and I'm going to do mine.
- Brainiac 5: But...
- Supergirl: [kissing him] In case I don't see you again.
- Green Arrow: [watching her depart] Hey, genius?
- [waving his hand in front of Brainiac's face to get his attention]
- Green Arrow: Hi. How about putting that big brain of yours to work on a plan to get us aboard the mothership?
- Brainiac 5: [going to the flight controls] I'll get us in.
- Green Arrow: Where are we, anyway?
- Brainiac 5: Approximately 1,000 years into your future, in what you'd call the 31st century.
- Green Lantern: [sarcastic] Time travel. Swell.
- Supergirl: What's that?
- Brainiac 5: A Legion flight ring. All of us have one.
- Supergirl: [taking and inspecting it] So does this mean we're going steady?
- Brainiac 5: [not sure what to say] Uh...
- Supergirl: Trust me, 1,000 years ago, that joke was hilarious.
- Brainiac 5: All of our teammates have been captured. To save them, we'll have to break the laws of time and recruit heroes from the past.
- Bouncing Boy: But messing with history? That's risky, even for us.
- Brainiac 5: Incomplete records from the 21st century show that three members of the legendary Justice League once came to the future. My research indicates now is that time.
- Bouncing Boy: I did my homework, too, Brainy. The histories say three heroes came to the future.
- Brainiac 5: But only two of them ever made it home.
- Bouncing Boy: The date we pulled her from is exactly when Supergirl vanished from the historical records. Brainy, she's going to die. We have to tell her.
- Brainiac 5: No. Telling her could change history. Keep quiet, Chuck. That's an order.
- Bouncing Boy: You know, Brainiac, being organic and having a heart? Not the same thing.
