Winn Schott : What were you thinking, huh?
James Olsen : You wouldn't understand.
Winn Schott : Well, then enlighten me. Because all I see here is a-is a crazy dude with a baseball bat and a ski mask and a death wish.
-
Winn Schott : Any of these look familiar?
Supergirl : That one! That's the gun he was carrying.
Winn Schott : Okay. That is an Anndrannian Photon Cannon.
J'onn J'onzz : How'd these guys get their hands on alien technology?
Alex Danvers : Are you sure they weren't Anndrannian?
Supergirl : Well, they weren't purple with fins, so, yeah, I'm sure.
Winn Schott : Oh, you are lucky this thing hit you before it was fully charged. There's no telling what this might've done to you.
-
J'onn J'onzz : We've got to find a way to track these weapons.
Winn Schott : Okay. So, it emits phased muon particles. I could maybe come up with a way to detect it.
-
Winn Schott : Okay, because the photon cannon is powered by electromagnetism, it left a radiation signature on Supergirl's suit after the blast, so we might be able to put a tracking algorithm...
[seeing Alex is distracted]
Winn Schott : Hello? Earth to Agent Danvers.
Alex Danvers : Sorry, I'm listening.
Winn Schott : No, you're not.
-
Winn Schott : What's going on with you?
Alex Danvers : Maggie is such a terrible pool player. I mean, I even tried to let her win and she couldn't keep up.
Winn Schott : Mag... Maggie, the NCPD officer?
Alex Danvers : Yeah. You know, she's been kinda down. Her, um... her girlfriend broke up with her.
Winn Schott : Ooh. That's too bad.
Alex Danvers : Yeah. I don't know, lately she just hasn't really been acting like... Maggie. You know? She's normally so tough, but now she just seems so vulnerable. I just wish I could help her.
Winn Schott : Yeah, I try to stay out of other people's relationships.
Alex Danvers : Mm-hmm. Like you stayed out of Kara's relationships?
Winn Schott : Okay, now, that was different. I was into Kara. It's not like you're into this Maggie person.
-
Winn Schott : You looking for Kara?
James Olsen : No. Looking for you.
Winn Schott : [interested] Really?
James Olsen : I had some free time on my hands, and... I've kind of missed you from CatCo, man.
Winn Schott : That's nice, and kind of weird, for you to say. Wait, wait. Is your computer frozen?
-
Winn Schott : I thought male corsets went out of style in the late 1800s.
James Olsen : No, I was, um, I was shooting some hoops last night and bruised some ribs.
Winn Schott : Mm.
[James groans when Winn pokes him]
Winn Schott : You're a terrible liar, Olsen. So, I hacked into the security footage taken at the Federal Reserve that got attacked last night? The same place I told you about yesterday.
[showing him a screenshot, in which James' face is clearly visible]
Winn Schott : It's a great disguise, by the way.

James Olsen : My whole life, I've been a sidekick. I have hidden behind my camera while my best friends wear capes, and they're heroes and they save people. And I want to do something good for the world. And I feel like I've waited too long already. Winn, you found the work that you're supposed to do with the DEO. I haven't; not here. But I feel like this is it.
Winn Schott : I hate to break it to you, dude, but you don't have superpowers.
James Olsen : I know, but I can do this. We can do this.
Winn Schott : Was that... "we"?
James Olsen : Yes, we. I mean, I have a black belt. And you're right. I-I don't have powers. You... you can make me a suit. You can build me a weapon, and together we can level the playing field. Come on.
Winn Schott : Hmm, no. No. No! I can't do it.
James Olsen : You helped Kara.
Winn Schott : There's a difference, okay? She can fly. You're just tall.
James Olsen : You know, watching my dad's camera get destroyed... it reminded me of something. He gave his life protecting this country. And if I do this, I can honor him.
Winn Schott : Or you can end up just like him.
-
James Olsen : I'm gonna continue to be that crazy guy with the baseball bat and the ski mask, with or without you.
Winn Schott : James, guys like us, we are here to... to give people information, right? To fight with knowledge. There is no shame in that, man. You... you gotta think this through. You're gonna get yourself killed.
-
Winn Schott : Okay, so, the Muon Particle Detector will let us know if there are any weapons within a hundred feet.
Kara Danvers : Are you sure?
Winn Schott : Have I ever been wrong before?
[she gives him a look]
Winn Schott : Okay. This time I am sure.
Kara Danvers : I see Lena. Commence Operation Doubtfire.
-
Winn Schott : [entering James' office at CatCo] I used to be so terrified to walk in here.
James Olsen : Me, too.
Winn Schott : You're really not going to stop, are you?
James Olsen : Nope.
Winn Schott : [groaning] Oh... then God help me. I will help you.
James Olsen : What changed your mind?
Winn Schott : I spent so many years sitting at that little desk out there, just creating firewalls, you know, and just... keep people from finding out the newest celebrity baby names or how much money Cat spent at Barney's, which is a lot more than you think. Like...
[scoffing laugh]
Winn Schott : I wasn't really doing important work. Not really. And you're right, now I'm working at the DEO, I am, and it's... it's amazing. I... I get it. Being a hero, it's, uh... it's addictive.
[they share a laugh]
Winn Schott : Plus, you know, I would feel bad if you went and got yourself killed when I could've helped you.
-
James Olsen : I've been thinking about my suit.
Winn Schott : Oh, please. I already have something in the works. Just trust me, okay? Do me a favor, do not run into the line of fire until it is ready. Deal?
James Olsen : [fist bumping] Deal.
Winn Schott : And, have you thought of a superhero name? Every superhero needs a name.
James Olsen : I got one.
Winn Schott : Well, are you gonna tell me?
James Olsen : When we're ready... everybody's gonna know it.
