David Harewood: J'onn J'onzz

Quotes 

• J'onn J'onzz : See, I told you you had nothing to worry about.

  M'yrnn J'onzz : Karaoke is not for the weak. It requires either great courage or a complete lack of shame. But I like it.

• Alex Danvers : You have a stunning apartment, that I haven't been invited to yet.

  J'onn J'onzz : Oh, we're still getting it together.

  Alex Danvers : It's been three months, okay? I think it's time for a housewarming party.

  J'onn J'onzz : I don't think so.

  M'yrnn J'onzz : Yes. The house's temperature is quite comfortable.

  J'onn J'onzz : [seeing Alex's look]  Well, we could do dinner.

• Supergirl : I hate to ask, but I have to.

  Winn Schott : He's dead, Kara.

  Supergirl : Are you sure?

  Winn Schott : He's dead! Look, I had the warden and two separate medical examiners sign off on the body. I had them cross-check his dental records and his fingerprints, just to be sure. The dude in the box was my father, okay?

  Supergirl : So why blow himself up at his own funeral?

  James Olsen : Maybe for the headline.

  Winn Schott : Yeah. "Toyman's last trick." Sounds about right.

  J'onn J'onzz : I still think we should run a full mass spectrometry on the explosive residue, Winn. It may tell us who's helping your father.

  Winn Schott : No one is helping him! Seriously, he was a crazy person. Crazy people do crazy things. Like, oh, I don't know, mass murder.

• J'onn J'onzz : I spoke to Alex. She, uh... she wanted me to know that she had a lovely time. I-I hope whatever happened between you two, there are no hard feelings.

  [seeing his expression change] 

  J'onn J'onzz : Dad, what is it? What is it?

  M'yrnn J'onzz : I'm sorry, J'onn. I'm so sorry.

  J'onn J'onzz : What's up? What's wrong?

  M'yrnn J'onzz : I want you to have a life. I don't want to keep you from your friends. Keep you home, keep you locked away.

  J'onn J'onzz : You won't. You won't.

  M'yrnn J'onzz : But I will! I must tell you something.

• M'yrnn J'onzz : [with a pizza box in hand]  My son, may I borrow ten of your Earth dollars? The strike team tackled the delivery man when he entered the lobby. I think I should tip him well.

  J'onn J'onzz : Delivery man? But we're having dinner with Alex and Kara.

  M'yrnn J'onzz : That's why I bought a tomato pie.

  J'onn J'onzz : Dad, we're cooking. We got the ingredients earlier on.

  Alex Danvers : [seeing M'yrn's face fall]  So, we should get to your place ASAP and get that roast in the oven.

  [leading him away] 

  Alex Danvers : Don't worry, tomato pie is my favorite hors d'oeuvre.

• Supergirl : [watching Alex and M'yrnn leave]  Go, go be with them. The analysis will take hours. I'll stay here.

  J'onn J'onzz : What about the Worldkillers?

  Supergirl : Alex has every available agent looking for them. Go eat.

• J'onn J'onzz : Problem?

  Alex Danvers : Oh, there was a minor kerfuffle, but, uh, no one was hurt and Kara's got it handled, so you just keep relaxing.

• Alex Danvers : You've chosen to live as a black man in America, which is a harder existence in and of itself. Why?

  J'onn J'onzz : You know, I was... I was forced to become Hank Henshaw out of desperation, but now I... I choose this face. I like it. And I wouldn't want to live in a world where I need to change the color of my skin to feel safe, to feel seen, to feel like I'm not a target. I'd rather change the world.

  M'yrnn J'onzz : And whatever my son's fight may be, I choose it as well.

  Alex Danvers : And I have your backs.

• J'onn J'onzz : What happened?

  Alex Danvers : What do you mean?

  J'onn J'onzz : Did he, um, offend you? Say something?

  Alex Danvers : No. Of course not. No, your father is wonderful.

  J'onn J'onzz : So then what went so wrong? We were having such a lovely time. And now my father has completely closed himself off for some reason. Why?

  Alex Danvers : You're gonna have to talk to him about it. It-it's not my place. I'm sorry. But for the record, I had a lovely time, too.
