Hank Henshaw : It's Agent Danvers and her sister from another planet.
Alex Danvers : She's here to help us fight Vartox.
Hank Henshaw : I told you, I don't trust aliens.
Alex Danvers : There's no one I trust more.
-
Alex Danvers : She followed your orders. She won.
Hank Henshaw : Yeah. This time.
Alex Danvers : Director Henshaw. I wasn't only recruited because of my sister... was I?
Hank Henshaw : Yeah, she's why you got in. *You* are why you to get to stay.

Alex Danvers : I have a conference in Geneva and I need to be on a plane in two hours.
Kara Danvers : And I have a blind date in a half an hour and I need you to help me pick out what to wear. I win.
Alex Danvers : Why do you do this to me?
Kara Danvers : Because I'm your sister and you love me.

Kara Danvers : I don't know. I feel like I'm not living up to my potential. I went to work for Cat Grant because I thought working in a media company run by a powerful woman who actually shapes the way people think would be the way that I could make a difference. But instead I just fetch layouts and coffee.
Alex Danvers : You always wanted to be normal, right? So having a crappy boss and absolutely nothing to wear, this is what normal looks like.
Kara Danvers : I'm not normal. I have the same powers he does. I can... lift a bus, stop a bullet. Alex, I can fly. At least I think I can. I haven't done it in years.
Alex Danvers : Kara, you've got a good job. You're cute. And thanks to your alien DNA, you can't get pimples. Life is not so bad. But if you really want to help someone, you'll pick between one of these two so I can get on my plane.
[she holds up a red and blue shirt; after a moment of indecisiveness, Kara points to the red one]
Alex Danvers : [handing her the blue shirt] Good choice. When it doubt, go with blue. It is your color. All right, text me every detail from your date, and I will call you when I'm back from Geneva. I love you.
Kara Danvers : Love you.

Alex Danvers : What were you thinking? You exposed yourself to the world. You're out there now, Kara. Everyone will know about you, and you can't take that back.
Kara Danvers : I... I don't want to. This is what I was talking about, Alex. I've always felt the need to help people, and tonight I finally got that chance. I didn't travel 2,000 light years just to be an assistant.
Alex Danvers : What if people figure out who you are? What you are. It's just... it's not safe for you to do anything like that ever again.
Kara Danvers : [hurt] Oh. I'm kind of tired. I... I just... carried a plane on my back. I'm gonna go to bed. You should go.
Alex Danvers : Don't say I didn't warn you.
-
Supergirl : Did you know about my mom? That she was the one who locked up all those aliens?
Alex Danvers : It's why I didn't want you going out there, showing yourself. Showing this. The Fort Rozz escapees would give anything to get revenge on your mother, and the only way that they can do that now is to hurt you. I'm trying to protect you.
Supergirl : You were right. The world doesn't need me.

Alex Danvers : [knocking on Kara's door] Kara, it's me. Can we talk?
[Kara x-rays the door and sees her outside]
Alex Danvers : I know you can see me. I know what you're thinking, okay? That this is all your fault. But it's not. Before you came to live with us, I was the star. And then, I mean... h... how could I compete with you? With... with someone who could touch the stars? You know, I was happy when you decided not to use your powers. You know, you... feeling like less, it somehow, it... made me feel like more. Now the world needs you to fly, Kara.
Kara Danvers : [opening the door] I can't, Alex. I can't do it.
Alex Danvers : Yeah, you can. Your family believes in you.
Kara Danvers : I know you do.
Alex Danvers : No, I don't mean me.
Kara Danvers : [Alex hands her a metallic box] That's Kryptonese writing.
Alex Danvers : Yeah. Hank and his old team recovered it from the pod that brought you to Earth.
-
Alex Danvers : I know you're mad and you're hurt. I wanted to tell you every single day.
Supergirl : No, instead, you told me every single day not to be who I really am.
Alex Danvers : You have to listen to me.
Supergirl : I can't. This kind of just feels like one big coincidence, doesn't it? You working here, hunting down aliens, me being one? I can't help but think the real reason you were recruited was because of me.
Alex Danvers : They recruited me because my background in bio-engineering makes me an expert on alien physiology. And, yeah, it helps that I shared a bathroom with one.
Supergirl : I'm leaving now. Unless you wanna try and stop me. Which I wouldn't.
