1. Previously on Justice League:
Copy !req
2. This is USS Defiant. We are under attack
and have sustained heavy damage.
Copy !req
3. We are going down.
Copy !req
4. Let it sink.
Copy !req
5. This could've been avoided.
Copy !req
6. Come and air your grievances at the
World Assembly. Negotiate for peace.
Copy !req
7. Mera, what kind of future
am I making for our son?
Copy !req
8. First you sink a nuclear
submarine, then you threaten us.
Copy !req
9. Who gave you the right?
Copy !req
10. I knew we couldn't trust that fish-man.
Copy !req
11. The sub's stripped
and the plutonium is gone.
Copy !req
12. You tried to kill Aquaman. Why?
Copy !req
13. Spanish doubloons.
Copy !req
14. - Where would they get coins like this?
- Atlantis.
Copy !req
15. Now is the time
for mighty Atlantis to rise up...
Copy !req
16. and strike terror
into the hearts of its enemies.
Copy !req
17. Orm! What treason is this?
Copy !req
18. I'm only doing what you
never had the courage to do.
Copy !req
19. I'm in charge now.
Copy !req
20. For years I've stood and watched
while you led Atlantis to the brink of ruin.
Copy !req
21. I'll stand no more,
and neither will your generals.
Copy !req
22. This is a battle
we should've fought years ago...
Copy !req
23. but you betrayed us by siding
with our enemies.
Copy !req
24. Take him away.
Copy !req
25. - General Brak, ready your troops at once.
- Yes, my lord.
Copy !req
26. Orm, they said my husband
has returned. Is it true?
Copy !req
27. I wish it were, but it's only
an unfounded rumor.
Copy !req
28. I've tried to be strong,
but without him...
Copy !req
29. Don't worry, Mera.
I'll take care of you, and your son.
Copy !req
30. My son?
Copy !req
31. I've already taken the precaution
of placing him under my protection.
Copy !req
32. These are dangerous times, Mera.
We can't be too careful.
Copy !req
33. Where is he?
Copy !req
34. The prince will come to no harm
as long as you cooperate.
Copy !req
35. How can you do this?
Copy !req
36. I assure you I am only doing
what is best for Atlantis.
Copy !req
37. We're almost there.
Atlantis is just beyond that reef.
Copy !req
38. Don't expect them
to welcome us with open arms.
Copy !req
39. Set the ship down here.
Maybe we can slip under their defenses.
Copy !req
40. Too late. They've already seen us.
Copy !req
41. - if it's a fight they want, they've got it.
- Wait, remember why we're here.
Copy !req
42. Hold your fire. We come with
an urgent message for your king.
Copy !req
43. - How should we respond, general?
- Destroy them.
Copy !req
44. There's your answer.
Copy !req
45. What?
Copy !req
46. Behind you!
Copy !req
47. - Thanks. Ah!
- Aaarggh!
Copy !req
48. This way.
Copy !req
49. There it is.
Copy !req
50. Not even close. Aaarggh!
Copy !req
51. Depth charges.
Copy !req
52. Worthless surface scum.
Copy !req
53. Where's Aquaman?
Copy !req
54. I thought your kind
already took care of him.
Copy !req
55. No. He came back here.
Copy !req
56. We came to warn him about
a plot against his life. An Atlantean plot.
Copy !req
57. Lies and deceptions!
Copy !req
58. I consider this latest incursion
nothing less than an act of war.
Copy !req
59. You will be executed
as enemies of the crown.
Copy !req
60. Then I will wipe out
the surface world forever.
Copy !req
61. - J'onn, can you phase free?
- No. Can't focus.
Copy !req
62. Me neither. Some kind
of synaptic discharge.
Copy !req
63. Then we'll drown.
Copy !req
64. Your troops are almost ready
to depart, my lord.
Copy !req
65. Proceed, general. I will join you after
I attend to some unfinished business.
Copy !req
66. - Which one will go first?
- My money's on the girl.
Copy !req
67. - You think?
- Ah!
Copy !req
68. Thank you. But why...?
Copy !req
69. You believe someone in Atlantis
has betrayed my husband.
Copy !req
70. I also fear for his life,
but I need your help.
Copy !req
71. You've got it.
Copy !req
72. Enjoying the view?
Copy !req
73. Getting rid of me won't make
the people of Atlantis serve you.
Copy !req
74. I know. That whole lineage thing
could get messy.
Copy !req
75. Fortunately, I have a solution.
Copy !req
76. What do you mean?
Copy !req
77. No!
Copy !req
78. Your kingdom is truly magnificent.
Copy !req
79. I see why Aquaman
protects it so passionately.
Copy !req
80. Unfortunately, there are those
whose ambitions would destroy it.
Copy !req
81. Get down.
Copy !req
82. Ah!
Copy !req
83. Stand back.
Copy !req
84. Thank you.
Copy !req
85. This fight is far from over.
Copy !req
86. The young prince will be another victim
of the surface dwellers' aggression.
Copy !req
87. Aaarggh!
Copy !req
88. Sadly, that will also make me
the rightful heir to the throne.
Copy !req
89. Well, I'm off to avenge your deaths.
Copy !req
90. Orm!
Copy !req
91. - We've searched the entire palace.
- But there's still no sign of him.
Copy !req
92. My love, you're safe.
Copy !req
93. And so is our son.
Copy !req
94. Your hand...
Copy !req
95. Where is Orm?
Copy !req
96. - His own hand. I can't believe it.
- I told you he was a madman.
Copy !req
97. Is it madness to sacrifice all
for someone you love?
Copy !req
98. Can't you work any faster?
Copy !req
99. This is a delicate operation, my lord.
It can't be rushed.
Copy !req
100. Superman, a situation's
developed up at the North Pole.
Copy !req
101. Thermal readings show temperatures
increasing rapidly.
Copy !req
102. If that continues, the ecological effects
could be catastrophic.
Copy !req
103. Then let's check it out.
Copy !req
104. - But what about the crisis here?
- There may be a connection.
Copy !req
105. What do you mean?
Copy !req
106. It's the Doomsday Thermal Reactor.
Copy !req
107. We designed it to create
a polar meltdown.
Copy !req
108. - What?
- I had it built as a weapon of last resort.
Copy !req
109. To protect Atlantis should
the surface world ever attack.
Copy !req
110. But I never armed it.
Copy !req
111. Then Orm must have,
using the plutonium from the submarine.
Copy !req
112. If the polar cap melts, the world
will sink beneath the waves.
Copy !req
113. Everything will be destroyed.
Orm must be stopped.
Copy !req
114. And he will be.
Copy !req
115. I'll see to it personally.
Copy !req
116. Aquaman, wait!
- Why do you follow?
Copy !req
117. We want to help.
Copy !req
118. This is my battle.
No one asked you to fight it.
Copy !req
119. Like it or not, we have a stake
in the outcome. We're not leaving.
Copy !req
120. Just stay out of my way.
Copy !req
121. Soldiers of Atlantis, attack.
Copy !req
122. Here we go again.
Copy !req
123. Superman, the glaciers
are already starting to melt.
Copy !req
124. I know, but we've got
our hands full here.
Copy !req
125. Ah!
Copy !req
126. For Atlantis!
Copy !req
127. I saw it, but I still don't believe it.
Copy !req
128. Stay with him.
We'll handle things here.
Copy !req
129. Aaarggh!
Copy !req
130. Apparently, I underestimated you,
brother. A mistake I won't make again.
Copy !req
131. There is not much time.
Copy !req
132. If we can't shut that down,
the entire world is doomed.
Copy !req
133. I suppose this is a
bad time to say, "I told you so."
Copy !req
134. - It's over.
- You're right. And you've lost.
Copy !req
135. The tide is against you.
The reactor can't be shut down.
Copy !req
136. - We're too late!
- Not yet!
Copy !req
137. No good. I'll have to go inside
and manually shut it down.
Copy !req
138. - lnside?
- Your ring, can it protect me?
Copy !req
139. We'll find out.
Copy !req
140. No, get away from that!
Copy !req
141. Orm, stop!
Copy !req
142. Still you defend them.
Copy !req
143. You're not fit to wear the crown,
you weak and gutless—
Copy !req
144. Please, brother, help me!
Copy !req
145. I believe this is mine.
Copy !req
146. Hurry, Batman.
Copy !req
147. It's shutting down. You did it.
Copy !req
148. No. We did.
Copy !req
149. Then the threat is over.
Copy !req
150. And surely you must know, my lord...
Copy !req
151. our loyalty belongs to you
and you alone.
Copy !req
152. We never believed in Orm's plan,
but your brother forced us.
Copy !req
153. The truth is,
we were only following orders.
Copy !req
154. Get them out of my sight.
Copy !req
155. I can only blame myself.
Copy !req
156. My fear of the surface dwellers blinded
me to those I should've feared most...
Copy !req
157. and it cost me dearly.
Copy !req
158. Don't be too hard on yourself.
Maybe we've all misjudged.
Copy !req
159. Perhaps.
Copy !req
160. All I want... All I've ever wanted
is peace and security for Atlantis.
Copy !req
161. After what's happened, it won't be easy.
Copy !req
162. I know, but some sacrifices
are worth it.
Copy !req
