Quotes 

• Andrea Rojas : What do the Super Friends do for fun? I mean, do they even have fun? I want you three to find out.

  William Dey : Andrea, it's not like there's a Super Friends hotline we can call.

  Andrea Rojas : Well, then do whatever you have to. Stalk them. Project a big "S" in the night sky. Jump off a bridge so one of them has to catch you. Then interview them on your way down. I don't care how you do it, just do it.

  Kara Danvers : Well, I... I can't speak for Supergirl, but I'm sure she's too busy saving people with real emergencies to do a celebrity puff piece.

  Nia Nal : And I heard that they don't even like giving interviews.

  Andrea Rojas : Well, are you forgetting our exclusive with Dreamer? And how about your tete-a-tete with Supergirl during my press tour for Obsidian Platinum, hmm?

  William Dey : I had assured her that our conversations were off the record.

  Andrea Rojas : Well, then get her on the record. Every time we have a Super Friend interview, CatCo Media tracker skyrockets.

  [as she talks, Nia accidentally dozes off] 

  Andrea Rojas : We're at number three. We need to be number one.

  [noticing Nia snoring] 

  Andrea Rojas : Did she fall asleep?

  Kara Danvers : [gently shaking her awake]  Nia.

  Nia Nal : Huh?

  [regaining her bearings] 

  Nia Nal : Andrea, I am so sorry.

  Andrea Rojas : Sleep on your own time, not mine. Go home. You're taking a mental health day.

  [to William and Kara] 

  Andrea Rojas : Now, you two, you have 24 hours to get me an interview with a Super Friend. Ideally, Supergirl. Fail and you'll find yourself writing classified ads and obits.

• William Dey : Tonight, Van Kull prison warden Wyatt Kote and others were arrested in connection with an alleged plot to use aliens in the prison's work-release program to commit crimes for the notorious Intergang mob syndicate. Here with me to discuss it is Supergirl. Thank you for joining us. If these allegations are true, how could something like this happen?

  Supergirl : Well, clearly, the system is broken when those in power are allowed to abuse that power entrusted to them. And I'm angry that criminals were allowed to infiltrate a worthwhile program like Second Chances, but I'm glad that it will continue with new oversight.

  William Dey : And what do you think should be done with the alien workers?

  Supergirl : They should be shown leniency.

  Andrea Rojas : [muting the television]  Now, that's the kind of reporting I'd like to see. Great job, William. Kara, you should take a page out of William's book. Okay. Everybody, back to work.

  William Dey : [leaving]  Just so you know, Supergirl came to me at the scene. It was dumb luck I was the one.

  Kara Danvers : I'm glad you were there.

  William Dey : Well, Andrea is happy.

  Kara Danvers : Yeah, but she still doesn't get it. I mean, this is so much more than an interview with Supergirl. This is about telling the public the truth about issues that matter.

  William Dey : Well, we shined a light on what was happening at the prison, we exposed the abuse, and we stopped an Intergang crime spree.

  Kara Danvers : Well, what about the abuse that's happening in other places?

  William Dey : We will root them out and report on them, too.

  Kara Danvers : When? In between our stories about the Super Friends' favorite hobbies?

  William Dey : Okay, don't hate me for saying this, but I think Andrea has a point. When Supergirl speaks, people listen. If an interview with her could make people hear the message... I'm all for it.

• William Dey : What are you working on?

  Kara Danvers : I'm trying to find out as much as I can about Warden Kote at Van Kull Prison. Hey, your friend doesn't still work for the CIA, do they?

  William Dey : Yeah. Why? You looking for a deep dive on the warden?

  Kara Danvers : Would you mind asking?

  William Dey : Sure. Happy to help.

  Andrea Rojas : [approaching]  Oh, good. Then help me understand this. I gave you two an assignment. Get me an interview with one of the Super Friends. Now, two of them were at the same place at the same time, and where were you? Not there.

  William Dey : Andrea, we can actually explain...

  Andrea Rojas : No, no, no. I don't want to hear your excuses. Not only did you miss a golden opportunity to get me what I want, but CatCo was scooped by every other news outlet. I can't bring myself to look at our media tracker ratings after this.

  Kara Danvers : Who cares about the ratings?

  Andrea Rojas : What?

  Kara Danvers : I... uh... you keep saying you want CatCo to be *the* most trusted source of news in National City.

  Andrea Rojas : Yes. Of course I do. Our readers need hard-hitting and truthful reporting now more than ever.

  Kara Danvers : Then let us do our job, instead of making us chase the Super Friends around. They aren't the story.

  Andrea Rojas : For any of us to do our job, CatCo needs eyeballs, and the Super Friends can get them for us. The more we have, the better our ratings, the better our bottom line. And that's the reality. I suggest you remember that. Now, back to work.
