Shelter from the Storm (2018)

Chyler Leigh: Alex Danvers

Quotes 

• Imra Ardeen : Chameleon was the first Legionnaire to fall. Stricken by the Blight. Six more quickly followed.

  Alex Danvers : So you put them in stasis to save their lives.

  Mon-El : It was Brainy's idea. Keep them on ice until we can find a cure.

  Alex Danvers : I was wondering why you hadn't woken them up to join the fight.

  Imra Ardeen : We couldn't risk exposing your timeline to the sickness. Couldn't risk causing the very thing we were trying so hard to prevent.

  Mon-El : But we did prevent it. And with Pestilence defeated in this time, they were never infected. So their vitals are back to normal.

• Imra Ardeen : The worst moment of my life was watching my sister die. But now, because of your help, I have faith that I'l see her again.

  Winn Schott : [entering]  Hey, Alex, you gotta see what, uh, Brainy just got me. Space dirt ain't got nothing on this baby.

  Alex Danvers : Oh... the nerdfest beckons.

• Supergirl : It's no secret that I struggled when you got here.

  Mon-El : Yeah, you weren't the only one.

  Supergirl : But I can honestly say now, truthfully... I'm really happy I got to see you again. Witnessed the... the man you've become.

  Mon-El : It meant the world to me to be back here with you. And with, uh... with everyone. To fight by your side.

  Supergirl : I'm really gonna miss your friendship.

  Alex Danvers : Kara, there's been an attack at Lena's penthouse.

  Mon-El : [she turns to look at him]  Go.

• Mrs. Queller : Not much further, Agent Danvers.

  Alex Danvers : I'm fine, Mrs. Queller.

  Mrs. Queller : Oh. Of course you are. I mean, you're in much better shape than me. You don't have these knees I have to contend with. Do you know, it took me a week to get used to the distances in this place. The step count from wing to wing, 5,000. Slightly bigger than my townhouse.

  Alex Danvers : Well, I'm in a studio, so...

  Mrs. Queller : And the creepy decor. Oh, this one.

  [stopping in front of a portrait of Lillian Luthor] 

  Mrs. Queller : Worse than the Mona Lisa. Her eyes follow you everywhere. Not in a good way. But, you know, if you can overlook some of the furnishings and the fact that the owner was a serial killer. Luckily, we haven't found a body yet. And the amenities are really quite fantastic.

• Supergirl : Why would Reign go after Lena?

  Winn Schott : Well, Lena, did imprison Reign and then, you know, experimented on her for a little bit.

  Alex Danvers : But revenge isn't Reign's M.O.

  J'onn J'onzz : I agree.

  Lena Luthor : You're right. Reign wasn't looking for me. She was looking for Ruby.

  Alex Danvers : Is she...

  Lena Luthor : Reign won't find her. Ruby's safe, I promise.

  Supergirl : And are you okay?

  Lena Luthor : Fine.

• J'onn J'onzz : So, Reign is after Ruby and she started with Lena.

  Alex Danvers : Where else might she look?

  Lena Luthor : Sam's mother, Patricia, she's got a farm outside the city.

  J'onn J'onzz : Supergirl and I will go get Patricia to safety and then wait for Reign to attack. Anything you've discovered while studying Reign that you think we should add to our arsenal?

  Lena Luthor : Electricity. It was how I was able to wake Reign up and force her back down.

  Winn Schott : Ooh, I can retrofit something.

• Alex Danvers : I need to get to Ruby.

  Lena Luthor : I told you, she's... she's in a safe place. And the less people that know about that, the safer the place will be.

  Alex Danvers : I understand that, but she's probably afraid. Lena, please let me just get to her, just in case.

  Lena Luthor : Where Ruby is, Reign will never find her. It's not on any maps. You can't see it from space. Nobody knows about it, except for me and my brother.

  Supergirl : And how does Lex know about it?

  Lena Luthor : Because it's his mansion.

• Mrs. Queller : Ruby doll, look who's come to pay you a visit.

  Ruby Arias : Aunt Alex!

  Alex Danvers : [hugging her]  Hi. Oh, I'm so glad you're okay.

  Ruby Arias : Is my mom with you?

  Alex Danvers : No. She's still sick.

  Ruby Arias : What's wrong with her? She won't tell me, and Lena won't tell me. Do you know?

  Alex Danvers : No, I don't.

  Ruby Arias : I haven't heard from her in days, and on the news, there are stories about the Pestilence outbreak. Is that what this is? Was my mom infected?

  Alex Danvers : No, Ruby. No.

  Ruby Arias : I'm twelve years old, Alex. I can handle anything. Just tell me what it is.

  Alex Danvers : I would if I knew. But I don't. Now, why don't you take me on a tour of this mausoleum?

• Ruby Arias : What's wrong? Who needs your help, my mom?

  Alex Danvers : [dodging]  Uh, no. No, no one. Hey, why don't we go watch a movie? Ms. Queller told me that they have "Young Frankenstein", which just so happens to be one of my all-time favorite movies.

  Ruby Arias : Stop lying to me!

  Alex Danvers : Ruby, I'm not lying, okay? That call wasn't even about your mom. She's fine. So let's watch a movie. Right? I'm gonna go talk to Ms. Queller, and she'll hook us up with popcorn and ice-cold soda and Gene Wilder. I mean, come on, this is gonna be amazing. You just hang tight. I'll be right back.

• Alex Danvers : All right, I think I finally got the projector working. You ready?

  [seeing Ruby acting fidgety] 

  Alex Danvers : You okay?

  Ruby Arias : Yeah.

  Alex Danvers : [realizing she left her phone on the table]  Ruby...

• Ruby Arias : What is that?

  Alex Danvers : That's Reign. Get downstairs now. Go.

• Ruby Arias : That was her. I saw her face.

  Alex Danvers : It looks like her, I know. I know. But I promise you, that's not your mom.

  Ruby Arias : Why should I believe you? You promised she was gonna be okay.

  Alex Danvers : You're right. I didn't tell you the truth. I was hiding it to try and protect you, and I, uh... I see now that that was wrong. I give you my word that I will do everything within my power to keep you safe. And from here on out, I will always be honest with you.
