Quotes 

• Alex Danvers : You were never really gonna tell me you cheated on her, were you?

  Maggie Sawyer : That wa... that was a long time ago. I did a horrible thing, and I already feel bad about it. You want to bring it up so I can feel worse?

  Alex Danvers : No, no, no. Look, this isn't about the fact that you cheated, okay? We have all done dumb things. This is about the fact that you don't trust me enough to tell me the truth.

  Maggie Sawyer : I wanted to.

  Alex Danvers : Listen, I've thought a lot about this, okay? You have a pattern of keeping things to yourself. You hid the truth about Emily, you made her seem like the bad guy, and then before that, you didn't tell me what really happened when you came out to your parents and how badly they reacted. You don't like to talk about you.

  Maggie Sawyer : I know.

  Alex Danvers : So I think that when your parents didn't accept you, you stopped trusting people that are closest to you. And I totally get that. But Maggie, you don't have to be guarded with me, okay? I'm not here to judge you for things that happened in the past. I am here to help you heal.

  Maggie Sawyer : You don't think I'm a bad person?

  Alex Danvers : No. Actually, I always thought that you were perfect, but it's really nice to see that you have problems, too.

• Supergirl : Rhea was about to kill me and Mon-El sacrificed everything to save my life. Now we have to save his.

  J'onn J'onzz : I can't let you do that.

  Supergirl : No, I'm... I'm okay.

  J'onn J'onzz : It's not that. We're under strict orders not to engage. I'm sorry.

  Supergirl : This is Mon-El's life. Please.

  J'onn J'onzz : I cannot disobey the President of the United States. I know it's easy to let emotions get involved, but there's a protocol. I am not the one calling the shots right now.

  Alex Danvers : I know how much you care for Mon-El, but this is too dangerous.

  Supergirl : I have to save him. I know you understand. Once that ship leaves, he's gone forever.

  J'onn J'onzz : He's made his choice. He's with his people, Kara.

  Supergirl : Mon-El did not choose this. This is not like M'gann, and if we wait for president's orders, Mon-El and his parents could be light years away. We have to go now! I'm the one that convinced him to do this. To try and reason with his mother. He's up there because of me. Please. J'onn, I can't lose him.
