1. This is not
how the mission was supposed to go.
Copy !req
2. Whoa, I am totally walking
on an alien planet.
Copy !req
3. Wow, sis, you must say that,
like, every day on Earth.
Copy !req
4. - Actually, I kind of do.
- We can breathe the air here, right?
Copy !req
5. Adam. Adam.
Copy !req
6. Um, great, I think.
Copy !req
7. Uh, Zeta Squad, these are my Rannian
friends, Sardath and his daughter Alanna.
Copy !req
8. I'm still figuring out the language.
Copy !req
9. This is usually
when we start playing charades.
Copy !req
10. Ooh.
Copy !req
11. Oh. What was that?
Copy !req
12. Such an odd sensation.
Copy !req
13. - Wait. You're speaking English.
- No, they're not.
Copy !req
14. But I linked us mentally
and I'm serving as a psychic translator.
Copy !req
15. They speak Rannian, we speak English...
Copy !req
16. but all now hear the language
they understand.
Copy !req
17. - Amazing. - It will make
communicating so much easier.
Copy !req
18. Perhaps we should take this inside.
Copy !req
19. It is wise to use caution
when harboring Earthlings.
Copy !req
20. Alien animalage.
Copy !req
21. - Cool.
- Sardath, have you learned anything more...
Copy !req
22. about why Earthlings are unwelcome
in this corner of the galaxy?
Copy !req
23. The Rannian Science Command
is xenophobic, in general...
Copy !req
24. which is why my research
into interplanetary Zeta-Beam travel...
Copy !req
25. is being conducted quietly.
Copy !req
26. And why you haven't reported
the theft of your technology.
Copy !req
27. Exactly.
Copy !req
28. If Science Command learned
I had made it possible for aliens...
Copy !req
29. especially you Earthlings,
to Zeta here to Rann...
Copy !req
30. the consequences could be
dire for myself and my daughter.
Copy !req
31. I still don't get it.
Copy !req
32. Why the big hate for Earthlings?
Copy !req
33. How do they even know
any Earthlings to hate?
Copy !req
34. I assume Adam showed you this.
Copy !req
35. We are still unclear on the details.
Copy !req
36. Science Command is not inclined
to share intelligence with its people.
Copy !req
37. We have learned there was an incident
on the planet Rimbor...
Copy !req
38. involving Earthling criminals
known as the Justice League.
Copy !req
39. I assume you are not associated
with these outlaws?
Copy !req
40. We are not members of the League.
Copy !req
41. Only these six were on Rimbor.
Copy !req
42. But since then, the Kroloteans
have posted planetary watch alerts...
Copy !req
43. for every criminal in the League.
Copy !req
44. The Kroloteans.
That's who stole your Zeta-Platform tech.
Copy !req
45. They used it to invade Earth, which is how
they found out about the other Leaguers.
Copy !req
46. I know. I told you that
the last time you were here.
Copy !req
47. Of course. Kroloteans.
Right. I misunderstood you.
Copy !req
48. I thought it was just
the Rannian word for thief.
Copy !req
49. It might as well be.
Copy !req
50. Yeah, Krolotean culture
revolves around stolen tech. We heard.
Copy !req
51. - Question is, what do we do about it?
- My father's Zeta-Shield will help.
Copy !req
52. If I can perfect the design.
Copy !req
53. Your primitive Zeta-Tubes
would still function...
Copy !req
54. within the confines
of the Earthling atmosphere.
Copy !req
55. But unauthorized travel
to and from other worlds...
Copy !req
56. will become impossible.
Copy !req
57. In short, my shield
will prevent more Kroloteans...
Copy !req
58. from invading your world
via Zeta-Beam...
Copy !req
59. while trapping
any still entrenched there.
Copy !req
60. And in the meantime...
Copy !req
61. Adam tells us you've located
the Krolotean Zeta-Platform here on Rann.
Copy !req
62. Indeed.
But the jungles of Rann can be dangerous.
Copy !req
63. You Earthlings will need a guide.
Copy !req
64. I'll go, Father.
Copy !req
65. You must complete your work
on the Zeta-Shield.
Copy !req
66. But transportation out of the city of
Ranagar is also not without risks, Alanna.
Copy !req
67. We must disguise these Earthlings.
Copy !req
68. Look, enough with this Earthlings thing.
Copy !req
69. I'm half-Kryptonian,
and Miss Martian is Martian.
Copy !req
70. You came here from Earth, did you not?
Copy !req
71. Yeah, but we're not...
Copy !req
72. Never mind.
Copy !req
73. We should be fine now.
Copy !req
74. Unless the Rannian Science Patrol
comes in for routine ID checks.
Copy !req
75. I'll create a diversion.
Lead them off the train.
Copy !req
76. No, it's not safe. I'll…
Copy !req
77. You're the jungle guide, remember?
I'll ditch these guys...
Copy !req
78. and circle back to your father's
compound, help him finish the Zeta-Shield.
Copy !req
79. Be careful.
Copy !req
80. Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
Copy !req
81. The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Copy !req
82. Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!
Copy !req
83. - Aah!
- Got your nose. Ha-ha-ha.
Copy !req
84. No time to say hello. Goodbye.
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late.
Copy !req
85. Jabberwock? Bandersnatch?
Copy !req
86. His last name is Strange.
Copy !req
87. And down the rabbit hole, I go!
Copy !req
88. We'll be in range
of the coordinates soon.
Copy !req
89. Hey, sis, remember that time
you and Superboy visited me in Qurac?
Copy !req
90. He picked flowers
that were really poison sumac.
Copy !req
91. That was a long time ago, Gar.
Noted.
Copy !req
92. But you remember, right, Superboy?
Copy !req
93. How much further, Alanna?
Copy !req
94. We're close enough now.
Copy !req
95. This way.
Copy !req
96. Whoa!
Copy !req
97. Now, that is some prime
alien-souvenir material.
Copy !req
98. - Wait!
- Hey! Ow!
Copy !req
99. Blue sand bag. Deadly.
Copy !req
100. Basically, if it looks pretty, don't touch.
Copy !req
101. Noted.
Copy !req
102. Oh, it's bigger than I anticipated.
Copy !req
103. Even this far out in the jungle, how could
something this size have been built...
Copy !req
104. without Science Command
knowing about it?
Copy !req
105. I'm going in. I'll send you
an image of where to rendezvous.
Copy !req
106. I've found your entrance.
Copy !req
107. All clear.
Copy !req
108. Six Zeta-Platforms?
Copy !req
109. Not for long. These
are small-target explosives.
Copy !req
110. Should permanently disable the platforms
without blowing the whole base.
Copy !req
111. Three-minute triggers
will give us plenty of time to get out...
Copy !req
112. before the Kroloteans
know what hit them.
Copy !req
113. Beast Boy and I will plant them.
Copy !req
114. You two wait here.
Copy !req
115. All set.
Now, let's blow this Popsicle-
Copy !req
116. Escape route's blocked.
We're trapped inside with the bombs.
Copy !req
117. Yeah, with the bombs
and a lot of angry company.
Copy !req
118. New plan. When the platforms blow...
Copy !req
119. use the chaos
to charge for the front door.
Copy !req
120. - I'll cover you.
Then we blow this Popsicle-Aah!
Copy !req
121. Beast Boy! Gar, are you all right?
Copy !req
122. Yeah. Yeah, I'm good. Go.
Copy !req
123. The exit is clear.
Copy !req
124. Huh?
Copy !req
125. Where did all those Kroloteans come from?
Copy !req
126. Earth, I think. Our teammates...
Copy !req
127. were set to raid
their Earth bases about now.
Copy !req
128. Can't you translate
their thoughts and find out for sure?
Copy !req
129. Their minds are too alien.
Copy !req
130. It would take hours,
maybe days, to learn their language.
Copy !req
131. And I definitely couldn't do it
without them noticing.
Copy !req
132. Hm, noted.
Copy !req
133. They're following us. Or something is.
Copy !req
134. Something big.
Copy !req
135. Move!
Copy !req
136. Aah!
Copy !req
137. Hurry, in here.
Copy !req
138. Superboy, Alanna, are you…?
Safe, for now.
Copy !req
139. You?
Copy !req
140. We lost them.
Copy !req
141. Now can we blow this Popsicle stand?
Copy !req
142. Now we stay put.
Give their patrols a chance to move on.
Copy !req
143. We'll meet up at the mag-rail
when it's safe.
Copy !req
144. Then regroup with Adam and my father...
Copy !req
145. to determine what to do
about this Krolotean base.
Copy !req
146. M'gann, be careful.
Copy !req
147. You too, Conner.
Copy !req
148. So how long were you and she together?
Copy !req
149. All my life.
Copy !req
150. - Do you wanna talk about it'?
- No.
Copy !req
151. - Oh, can she hear us'?
- Doesn't work that way.
Copy !req
152. Translation's basically automatic.
Copy !req
153. She's not conscious
of what we say out laud.
Copy !req
154. Well, then talk. I live light-years away
so you'll never see me again.
Copy !req
155. - Makes me the perfect confidante.
- Ah...
Copy !req
156. It's complicated. And weird.
Copy !req
157. Hey, I have a crush on an alien
from another planet.
Copy !req
158. Who am I to judge?
Copy !req
159. You asked for it.
Copy !req
160. See, I'm a clone.
Copy !req
161. Force-grown in the span of a few months
to look like this.
Copy !req
162. M'gann somehow saw I could be more
than the weapon I was created to be.
Copy !req
163. Complicated, but sweet. Go on.
Copy !req
164. M'gann's a shape-shifter.
Copy !req
165. To her, looks are clothing
for the mind inside.
Copy !req
166. Easy to change, but I'm the opposite.
Copy !req
167. It's become clear the processes
used to create me had a side effect.
Copy !req
168. I don't visibly age at all.
Copy !req
169. I'm not immortal.
Copy !req
170. I'm aging internally,
but I'll always look...
Copy !req
171. This good?
Copy !req
172. - Standard blessing and curse.
- Seems like a shape-shifter...
Copy !req
173. would be the perfect match
for someone suffering from your condition.
Copy !req
174. I used to think so.
Copy !req
175. Anyway, she's with La'gaan now.
Copy !req
176. He's kind of a jerk, but he's good to her.
Copy !req
177. Well, it's obvious
she still has feelings for you.
Copy !req
178. Perhaps she regrets leaving you for him.
Copy !req
179. She didn't.
Copy !req
180. I dumped her.
Copy !req
181. She left me no choice.
Copy !req
182. They're gone.
Way to lead a mission accomplished.
Copy !req
183. Up high, sis.
Copy !req
184. - Ah. What's that for?
- Nothing.
Copy !req
185. - Family prerogative.
- Get off.
Copy !req
186. Race you to the mag-rail.
Copy !req
187. Heh. Slow down, Gar, before a carnivorous
tree takes a bite out of your...
Copy !req
188. No worries. You can just give me
another blood transfusion.
Copy !req
189. Wonder what power I'd get this time.
Copy !req
190. The power to listen
to your adopted sister, maybe?
Copy !req
191. Sorry, didn't hear that.
Copy !req
192. Beast Boy?
Copy !req
193. Garfield, what is it?
Copy !req
194. Oh, Gar, I'm so sorry.
Copy !req
195. I should have been there,
done something.
Copy !req
196. But it's not your fault.
You couldn't have stopped Queen Bee.
Copy !req
197. I miss your mom too,
but we have to keep moving.
Copy !req
198. It's not safe here. Please.
Copy !req
199. We're close.
I can see the mag-rail track up ahead.
Copy !req
200. Miss Martian isn't translating.
Copy !req
201. M'gann, can you hear me?
Copy !req
202. Something's wrong.
Copy !req
203. Phew! Boy, am I glad to see you.
Copy !req
204. Thought I'd never lose
those Science Patrol goons.
Copy !req
205. How's the Zeta-Shield coming?
Copy !req
206. And we're back to charades.
Copy !req
207. Conner.
Copy !req
208. They still trying to capture us,
or is it just a bitter revenge thing now?
Copy !req
209. Either way, we discourage them.
Copy !req
210. - Game?
- Me? I'm big game.
Copy !req
211. Take care of her.
Copy !req
212. Kid, you may just change my mind
about monkeys yet.
Copy !req
213. Wake up.
Copy !req
214. Alanna. What happened?
Copy !req
215. Oh, thank Ulthoon,
I can understand you again.
Copy !req
216. You and Beast Boy were captured,
but we rescued you.
Copy !req
217. What just…?
Copy !req
218. Time to go.
Copy !req
219. - You okay?
- Fine. I got this for Beast Boy.
Copy !req
220. - Souvenir. Sweet.
- Where did that come…?
Copy !req
221. M'gann, what did you…?
Never mind that now.
Copy !req
222. We have to get back to Earth.
Copy !req
223. I know what the Justice League did
on Rimbor.
Copy !req
224. I know what happened
during their missing 16 hours.
Copy !req
