1. Before Rome,
before Babylon,
Copy !req
2. before the pyramids,
there was Kahndaq.
Copy !req
3. The first self-governing people
on Earth,
Copy !req
4. Kahndaq was a center of power
and enlightenment.
Copy !req
5. For centuries, they thrived.
Copy !req
6. - But then...
Copy !req
7. came King Ahk-Ton.
Copy !req
8. Using the army to seize power,
Ahk-Ton became a tyrant.
Copy !req
9. But he had
even darker ambitions.
Copy !req
10. Obsessed with dark magic,
Copy !req
11. Ahk-Ton's real goal was
to forge the Crown of Sabbac.
Copy !req
12. If infused with the powers
of the six demons
Copy !req
13. - of the ancient world...
Copy !req
14. it would make Ahk-Ton
invincible.
Copy !req
15. To make the crown,
he needed Eternium.
Copy !req
16. A rare mineral
of magic properties,
Copy !req
17. - found only in Kahndaq.
Copy !req
18. So he enslaved his own people
Copy !req
19. and forced them to dig.
Copy !req
20. Eternium.
Copy !req
21. Eternium.
Copy !req
22. Kahndaq was teetering
on the brink.
Copy !req
23. What they needed...
Copy !req
24. Get off him! Get off him!
Copy !req
25. Get off him! Get off him!
Copy !req
26. was a hero.
Copy !req
27. Why are we
fighting each other?
Copy !req
28. Remember who our real enemy is!
Come with me.
Copy !req
29. Look! Eternium.
Copy !req
30. Let me see that.
Copy !req
31. The King thanks you.
Copy !req
32. He's supposed to reward him.
Copy !req
33. Is that right?
Copy !req
34. I want what I'm owed.
Copy !req
35. Hmm.
Copy !req
36. You want a reward?
Copy !req
37. The King thanks you
for your service.
Copy !req
38. You want
the king's reward, too?
Copy !req
39. No, but my son accepts
the king's mercy.
Copy !req
40. I won't always be here
to protect you.
Copy !req
41. I don't need protection.
I want to be free.
Copy !req
42. If we fight together,
we could overthrow the king.
Copy !req
43. Let someone else be the hero...
Copy !req
44. The graveyards
are full of them.
Copy !req
45. Stop dreaming
and go back to work.
Copy !req
46. Someone to hold
the hopes of the people.
Copy !req
47. Even when all hope seems lost.
Copy !req
48. If we had more heroes...
Copy !req
49. then maybe our freedom
wouldn't be a dream!
Copy !req
50. Freedom!
Copy !req
51. King Ahk-Ton knew
that this spark
Copy !req
52. could quickly ignite a fire.
Copy !req
53. And so, he ordered
that it be snuffed out.
Copy !req
54. They thought they were
getting a martyr.
Copy !req
55. Instead...
Copy !req
56. - ... they got a miracle.
Copy !req
57. The Council of Wizards,
Copy !req
58. the magical guardians
of the Earth...
Copy !req
59. You have been chosen.
Copy !req
60. sought to restore
the balance.
Copy !req
61. The stamina of Shu!
Copy !req
62. They empowered him with
the gifts of the ancient gods.
Copy !req
63. The swiftness of Heru! -The strength of Amon!
Copy !req
64. And turned a boy...
Copy !req
65. The wisdom of Zehuti!
Copy !req
66. - The power of Aten!
- The courage of Mehen!
Copy !req
67. into a champion.
Copy !req
68. Shazam!
Copy !req
69. Hurry.
Give it to me!
Copy !req
70. But the crown had
already been completed.
Copy !req
71. Give it to me!
Copy !req
72. And when The Champion
arrived at the palace
Copy !req
73. to challenge him...
Copy !req
74. King Ahk-Ton summoned
its demonic power.
Copy !req
75. In the ensuing battle,
the palace was destroyed,
Copy !req
76. but The Champion
was victorious.
Copy !req
77. The wizards hid
the Crown of Sabbac
Copy !req
78. so that it would never again
fall into the hands of man.
Copy !req
79. And The Champion
was never heard from again.
Copy !req
80. Today, Kahndaq is occupied
by international mercenaries,
Copy !req
81. the Intergang, the latest
in a series of foreign invaders.
Copy !req
82. But legend says,
whenever Kahndaq needs him most,
Copy !req
83. The Champion will return
to restore freedom to the people.
Copy !req
84. It has been a long, long wait.
Copy !req
85. Show me your papers.
Copy !req
86. Move it along!
Copy !req
87. Have your documentation ready.
Copy !req
88. It's all our
three documents, yeah?
Copy !req
89. Don't judge the picture,
Copy !req
90. it's after my girlfriend
broke up with me.
Copy !req
91. Open the back.
Need a look inside.
Copy !req
92. Yeah, it's unlocked, man.
Copy !req
93. It's just a bunch of old TVs.
I'm an electrician.
Copy !req
94. - Hey!
Copy !req
95. Watch where you're going.
Copy !req
96. You know the drill,
back of the line.
Copy !req
97. Come on, man,
you see me every day.
Copy !req
98. And every day I tell ya,
Copy !req
99. if it's got wheels,
it's a vehicle.
Copy !req
100. Back of the line, mate.
Copy !req
101. You're not my mate.
Copy !req
102. I'm heartbroken.
Now, go on, piss off.
Copy !req
103. No, what you are
is a neo-imperialist enforcer,
Copy !req
104. from halfway around the world,
Copy !req
105. sent here to steal
my country's natural resources,
Copy !req
106. strip-mine our sacred lands,
pollute our water,
Copy !req
107. oppress our heritage,
Copy !req
108. and make us wait in lines
all day.
Copy !req
109. - Hey, boss man. Can I go?
Copy !req
110. Hey!
Copy !req
111. Go on, get out of here.
Copy !req
112. - Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
113. Adrianna, we're clear.
Copy !req
114. Kahndaq isn't safe
for us anymore.
Copy !req
115. Let's just move
the crown first,
Copy !req
116. and then we can
worry about safe.
Copy !req
117. I got Intergang
watching my house.
Copy !req
118. I gave up my job
at the university and moved four times.
Copy !req
119. It doesn't mean I'm gonna
abandon my country.
Copy !req
120. I'm just saying, no one stays
a step ahead of them forever.
Copy !req
121. We can't wait for things
to cool down this time.
Copy !req
122. If I'm right,
they're days away from finding it.
Copy !req
123. - What are you doing?
- I want to come with you.
Copy !req
124. You know it's too dangerous.
Copy !req
125. You shouldn't have
gotten involved.
Copy !req
126. Come on, I want to help you
beat those bastards.
Copy !req
127. Adrianna,
keep your head down, please.
Copy !req
128. - You want to be a hero, huh?
- I do, yeah.
Copy !req
129. Go home, do your homework.
Copy !req
130. Your time will come one day,
but not today, son.
Copy !req
131. Go!
Copy !req
132. Go, little man. You did good.
Copy !req
133. That would get you a fortune
on the black market.
Copy !req
134. Is that real Eternium?
Copy !req
135. Show us a little magic.
Copy !req
136. It doesn't work like that,
it's unrefined.
Copy !req
137. You guys should get some rest.
Copy !req
138. I thought Intergang
seized all the old relics.
Copy !req
139. Hey, come on. Stop it.
Copy !req
140. I'm just curious
how she got it.
Copy !req
141. My grandmother gave it to me.
Copy !req
142. - How did she get it?
- It's not a museum piece.
Copy !req
143. It's a family heirloom,
going all the way back
Copy !req
144. to the days
when Kahndaq was free.
Copy !req
145. You happy now?
Copy !req
146. Cool story.
Copy !req
147. And all I inherited
was a sweater.
Copy !req
148. That's not true. Baba left you
his van and his bald spot.
Copy !req
149. You know, some women
like a bald spot.
Copy !req
150. Curly on the outside,
smooth on the inside. You know?
Copy !req
151. Are you sure about this?
Copy !req
152. The inscriptions
we found are clear.
Copy !req
153. And I'm positive
about that translation.
Copy !req
154. There is something
inside that mountain.
Copy !req
155. What if it really
is the crown? Then what?
Copy !req
156. It's a source of great power.
Who gets to keep it?
Copy !req
157. No one. We hide it again
someplace else.
Copy !req
158. Get it out of the country
if we have to.
Copy !req
159. It is too dangerous
for anyone to have.
Copy !req
160. This is it?
Copy !req
161. Not yet.
Copy !req
162. - Are you coming?
- Eh, bad knee. I'll keep watch.
Copy !req
163. This way.
Almost there.
Copy !req
164. "Men were given
the gift of magic,
Copy !req
165. but their hearts
were too easily corrupted."
Copy !req
166. Keep reading.
Copy !req
167. "The ultimate power
was banished from the Earth
Copy !req
168. and hidden... here."
Copy !req
169. Until now.
Copy !req
170. This mountain has kept
the Crown of Sabbac safe for 5,000 years.
Copy !req
171. We're 100%, totally,
like, no take-backs
Copy !req
172. certain that
we want to move it?
Copy !req
173. We don't have a choice.
Copy !req
174. What happened to Ishmael?
Copy !req
175. Great.
Don't worry, I'll find him.
Copy !req
176. Samir?
Copy !req
177. Samir, what happened?
Copy !req
178. - What?
Copy !req
179. I can't hear you.
What are you saying?
Copy !req
180. Don't move! Unless you want
to join your mate.
Copy !req
181. Stay where you are! -
Copy !req
182. Oh, hey. Oh, hey. Hey...
Copy !req
183. - "Turn back."
Copy !req
184. - That's what it says, no?
Copy !req
185. Yes.
Copy !req
186. Where is Samir?
Copy !req
187. Claustrophobic.
Needed some air.
Copy !req
188. - Is this the way to the crown?
- I think so.
Copy !req
189. It's a tomb.
Copy !req
190. "Speak not his power,
Copy !req
191. so he may suffer
a dreamless sleep
Copy !req
192. for all eternity." Teth Adam.
Copy !req
193. The slave who became champion
and defeated the king.
Copy !req
194. The legend was true.
Copy !req
195. Kahndaq...
really did have a hero once.
Copy !req
196. If he was such a hero,
why'd they bury him down here?
Copy !req
197. The crown.
Copy !req
198. It's over.
Copy !req
199. Now, give me the crown.
Copy !req
200. Run, Addy! Run!
Copy !req
201. - Hold fire!
Copy !req
202. Don't hit the crown! Get her!
Copy !req
203. - Go! Move.
- Circle around!
Copy !req
204. - Get down!
Copy !req
205. - Say goodbye to your brother.
Copy !req
206. In five...
Copy !req
207. - four...
Copy !req
208. three...
Copy !req
209. two...
Copy !req
210. one...
Copy !req
211. I'm over here.
Copy !req
212. One? You let them get to one?
Copy !req
213. Any last words?
Copy !req
214. Please tell my son...
Copy !req
215. "Mightiest of mortals,
Copy !req
216. god of gods,
Copy !req
217. - Six Immortal Elders
by name..." -What?
Copy !req
218. - "Shazam!"
Copy !req
219. Who the hell is that?
Copy !req
220. You wouldn't believe me
if I told you.
Copy !req
221. Check him out.
Copy !req
222. Boss say you go.
Copy !req
223. Chief say your turn.
Copy !req
224. Hey, amigo.
Let me see your hands.
Copy !req
225. Open fire!
Copy !req
226. Your magic is weak.
Copy !req
227. Go.
Copy !req
228. We need immediate backup!
Send everything you've got!
Copy !req
229. Ishmael!
Copy !req
230. Ishmael!
Copy !req
231. Let's go!
Copy !req
232. This is
as fast as I can go.
Copy !req
233. Samir! What happened?
Copy !req
234. What didn't happen!
Copy !req
235. Samir fell off of a cliff.
Copy !req
236. I had a gun to my head.
Copy !req
237. Ishmael is buried
under a mountain.
Copy !req
238. And you summoned
some flying magic man.
Copy !req
239. All for what? Nothing!
Copy !req
240. - Oh.
- Not for nothing.
Copy !req
241. Light him up.
Copy !req
242. Shit! Where the hell
did he come from?
Copy !req
243. Rotor out! Go! Go!
Copy !req
244. - I can't maintain altitude!
Copy !req
245. Oh, shit.
Copy !req
246. Stop! Stop the van!
Copy !req
247. Behind you!
Copy !req
248. Did he just catch a rocket?
Copy !req
249. God willing,
we won't see him again.
Copy !req
250. Wait. Hey! Hey!
What are you doing?
Copy !req
251. Don't touch him,
he's made of lightning.
Copy !req
252. Good point.
Copy !req
253. You get him,
you're the electrician.
Copy !req
254. Raptor team, come in.
Copy !req
255. What's your status?
Copy !req
256. Help me.
Copy !req
257. I told you
to make it look real, not punch me in the face.
Copy !req
258. Raptor team, come in.
Copy !req
259. What's your status?
Copy !req
260. Status is that
everyone is dead.
Copy !req
261. Ishmael, is that you?
What happened?
Copy !req
262. The crown wasn't the only thing
waiting for us down here.
Copy !req
263. - Do you have it?
- No.
Copy !req
264. But I know who does.
Copy !req
265. Copy that. We're en route
to your location.
Copy !req
266. We need immediate backup.
Copy !req
267. Send everything you've got!
Copy !req
268. This rare, magical mineral
Copy !req
269. has been mined for centuries...
Copy !req
270. reports
of an Eternium blast.
Copy !req
271. It is unknown who or why...
Copy !req
272. decimated
a number of troops.
Copy !req
273. an unidentified male.
Copy !req
274. This being is
somehow able to harness...
Copy !req
275. What do you think?
Copy !req
276. I think this loose cannon
needs to be locked down
Copy !req
277. before innocent people
start getting hurt.
Copy !req
278. Oh, and good morning
to you, too.
Copy !req
279. Shove it up your ass, Carter.
Copy !req
280. He's been asleep
for 5,000 years.
Copy !req
281. He'll be disoriented at first.
The longer he has to adapt,
Copy !req
282. the harder it will be
to take him down.
Copy !req
283. Wheels up in 30.
Copy !req
284. Who's on the team?
Copy !req
285. - Welcome.
Copy !req
286. Please state your name
for identification.
Copy !req
287. Uh, hi. I'm Maxine Hunkel.
I'm here to see Mr. Hall.
Copy !req
288. Confirmed. Welcome, Maxine.
Copy !req
289. Thanks!
Copy !req
290. Maxine Hunkel,
aka Cyclone.
Copy !req
291. Wind manipulation powers,
computer skills, smart as hell.
Copy !req
292. Basically a tornado
with a 167 IQ.
Copy !req
293. Sounds delightful.
Copy !req
294. But please tell me
you found someone
Copy !req
295. who can pack a punch.
Copy !req
296. That's where Atom Smasher
comes in.
Copy !req
297. Al Rothstein, nephew
to the original Atom Smasher.
Copy !req
298. - Inherited his uncle's powers.
Copy !req
299. - How's my suit? Does it fit?
- No, yeah. It's perfect.
Copy !req
300. Thank you again
for letting me borrow it.
Copy !req
301. You know, I used to watch you
all the time as a kid?
Copy !req
302. This is literally
the only thing that I'd ever wanted in my—
Copy !req
303. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't let
anything happen to it.
Copy !req
304. It's vintage.
Copy !req
305. And don't let anything
happen to you, either.
Copy !req
306. Don't do anything crazy.
You listen to Carter.
Copy !req
307. I'm gonna make you proud,
Uncle Al. I promise.
Copy !req
308. They seem green.
Copy !req
309. That's why I called in Kent.
Copy !req
310. Kent's been
out of action for a little while,
Copy !req
311. but I can't do this
without him.
Copy !req
312. Takes magic to fight magic,
Copy !req
313. and the man's got
nearly god-level powers.
Copy !req
314. It might take
a lot more than that.
Copy !req
315. Are you sure they can take him?
Copy !req
316. Waller, you find us a cell
that can hold him,
Copy !req
317. we'll take care of the rest.
Copy !req
318. Good luck.
Copy !req
319. This is gonna be fun.
Copy !req
320. - We're here, sir.
- Hmm? Oh, right.
Copy !req
321. Was I staring again?
Copy !req
322. Only half an hour or so, sir.
Copy !req
323. Maybe next time, honk the horn?
Copy !req
324. Of course, sir.
Copy !req
325. So what's the op?
Copy !req
326. We're headed to
Kahndaq to apprehend and contain
Copy !req
327. a Class-A rogue metahuman.
Copy !req
328. I didn't bring a passport.
Copy !req
329. We don't need passports.
We're the Justice Society.
Copy !req
330. Is this entirely
made out of Nth metal?
Copy !req
331. Everything down to the screws.
Copy !req
332. Completely indestructible.
Copy !req
333. I'll be in the cockpit
if you need me.
Copy !req
334. It's pretty cool.
You got any snacks?
Copy !req
335. It takes a lot of energy
to smash atoms.
Copy !req
336. Here.
Copy !req
337. Oh! Thanks.
Copy !req
338. I'm Al, by the way.
Copy !req
339. Maxine.
Copy !req
340. What do you do?
Copy !req
341. Wind. You?
Copy !req
342. I grow.
Copy !req
343. Cool.
Copy !req
344. Whoa!
Copy !req
345. Don't worry about that.
I can get another one.
Copy !req
346. Uh, my mom's
not much of a doctor,
Copy !req
347. but you should probably
leave the—
Copy !req
348. Or do that.
Copy !req
349. I know you have a lot
to catch up on.
Copy !req
350. But I was thinking
we could help each other.
Copy !req
351. - Move.
- I'm Amon, by the way.
Copy !req
352. I didn't ask for your name.
Copy !req
353. You're Teth Adam, right?
Copy !req
354. Everyone in Kahndaq
knows your story.
Copy !req
355. - I said move.
- My mom said you took out
Copy !req
356. a bunch of Intergang soldiers
in the desert.
Copy !req
357. Because they wouldn't move
out of my way.
Copy !req
358. So you can really fly
and stop bullets,
Copy !req
359. 'cause that's really crucial
to my plan.
Copy !req
360. And is it really you stopping
the bullets or is it the suit?
Copy !req
361. Wait, what's your top speed?
Copy !req
362. I'm sure you're fast,
but how fast? Like Flash fast?
Copy !req
363. Wait, did you really
not have mirrors back then?
Copy !req
364. Wow, I guess a lot does change
in 5,000 years.
Copy !req
365. Five thousand years?
Copy !req
366. Yeah, that's how long
you were in the tomb.
Copy !req
367. Until my mom woke you up.
Copy !req
368. So you've got stopping bullets,
check, flying, check
Copy !req
369. and lightning thing,
that's a big check.
Copy !req
370. I don't know this place.
Copy !req
371. This is your home.
Copy !req
372. Then my home is gone.
Copy !req
373. What happened to the crown?
Copy !req
374. - Too much?
Copy !req
375. You know it's cursed
with demons, right?
Copy !req
376. "Life is the...
only path to death."
Copy !req
377. No shit.
Copy !req
378. "Teth Adam was a Bronze Age
Kahndaqi demi-god.
Copy !req
379. He defeated King Ahk-Ton
in approximately 2,600 BC."
Copy !req
380. There. That's you. See?
Copy !req
381. That's the statue
they built of you.
Copy !req
382. And now you're back.
Copy !req
383. Our country's been oppressed
by one invader after another
Copy !req
384. ever since you left.
Copy !req
385. My point is,
Kahndaq still isn't free.
Copy !req
386. We could really use a superhero
right about now.
Copy !req
387. I'm no hero.
Copy !req
388. What?
Superman, Batman, Aquaman...
Copy !req
389. You're way more stacked
than any of them.
Copy !req
390. And they're not coming
to Kahndaq to save us.
Copy !req
391. But you could stop Intergang
all by yourself,
Copy !req
392. just like you did King Ahk-Ton.
Copy !req
393. You're our only hope.
Copy !req
394. - Wizards.
Copy !req
395. I can fix it. Don't worry.
Copy !req
396. I'm not a wizard.
Copy !req
397. Hey, Mom.
He's awake.
Copy !req
398. I told you
not to go in your room.
Copy !req
399. It was you who spoke.
Copy !req
400. You woke me.
Copy !req
401. I didn't have a choice.
I'd be dead if it hadn't worked.
Copy !req
402. The men in my tomb,
they were your enemies?
Copy !req
403. - Yes.
- Then your enemies are vanquished,
Copy !req
404. condemned to the eternal sleep
of the damned.
Copy !req
405. Actually, we still have
a lot of enemies that need vanquishing.
Copy !req
406. Then destroy them.
Copy !req
407. Intergang have
guns and flybikes and Eternium rockets.
Copy !req
408. We have my mom.
Copy !req
409. Prove your strength.
Copy !req
410. Destroy your enemy
and all he cares about.
Copy !req
411. Make him beg for mercy,
Copy !req
412. but deny it
until his final breath.
Copy !req
413. Interesting, okay?
Copy !req
414. I appreciate
what you did for me,
Copy !req
415. but I do not want you
teaching my son violence.
Copy !req
416. I understand.
Copy !req
417. - You want his father
to teach him violence. -
Copy !req
418. - Gross, that's my brother.
- That's my sister.
Copy !req
419. - His father's dead.
- I'm sorry.
Copy !req
420. Who do you want
to teach him violence then?
Copy !req
421. Yeah, Mom. Who do you want
to teach me violence?
Copy !req
422. No one.
Copy !req
423. I want a champion to help
free Kahndaq from Intergang.
Copy !req
424. Please, help us.
Copy !req
425. Wait! Wait.
Copy !req
426. - Where are you going?
- I shouldn't be here.
Copy !req
427. You don't feel any loyalty
to us at all?
Copy !req
428. Not really, no.
Copy !req
429. You're not seeing
the full possibilities here.
Copy !req
430. I don't know what it was like
in ancient times,
Copy !req
431. but having superpowers
is kind of a big deal in our world.
Copy !req
432. Maybe clean up your outfit
a little bit,
Copy !req
433. get a cape, change your name.
Copy !req
434. Teth Adam is
a very strong name.
Copy !req
435. It's a little outdated.
Copy !req
436. And you definitely need
a catchphrase.
Copy !req
437. Something blackout bad-ass
to say
Copy !req
438. right before you absolutely
cook some dude.
Copy !req
439. I don't waste words
on the dead.
Copy !req
440. Well, yeah, kind of like that,
but more catchy.
Copy !req
441. I was thinking, like,
Copy !req
442. "Tell them the Man in Black
sent you."
Copy !req
443. - Them?
- You know, gods, demons...
Copy !req
444. Whoever's waiting for us
in the afterlife.
Copy !req
445. And you wear a lot of black,
so we should really lean into that.
Copy !req
446. My point is,
you could be famous.
Copy !req
447. Magazines, lunch boxes,
video games.
Copy !req
448. And the superhero
industrial complex is worth a lot of money.
Copy !req
449. I don't need a box
for my lunch.
Copy !req
450. Anyone you've ever known
is dead.
Copy !req
451. What else are you gonna do?
Copy !req
452. Wait! Where are you going?
Copy !req
453. Waller's file needs a bit
to be desired.
Copy !req
454. Most of this was
considered a myth
Copy !req
455. until yesterday afternoon.
Copy !req
456. He's a bad man, Kent.
What else do you need to know?
Copy !req
457. When you've seen as many
different futures as I have,
Copy !req
458. you cease to believe
in absolutes.
Copy !req
459. What are you laughing at?
Copy !req
460. I'm not laughing.
That was a smirk.
Copy !req
461. I know. That's how you laugh.
Copy !req
462. I've missed having you around
Copy !req
463. to spout old cryptic shit
like that.
Copy !req
464. Almost as much as I've missed
having you around
Copy !req
465. to ignore all my advice.
Carter...
Copy !req
466. This is not a very good plan.
Copy !req
467. Yeah, well...
Copy !req
468. A bad plan is better
than no plan at all.
Copy !req
469. If only there were
a third option.
Copy !req
470. I wouldn't touch that
if I was you.
Copy !req
471. Why not?
Copy !req
472. 'Cause that helmet
is from another planet.
Copy !req
473. It's millions of years old.
Copy !req
474. It chooses
who it lets touch it.
Copy !req
475. - Like Kent?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
476. Like, Kent is literally
possessed when he puts it on.
Copy !req
477. What happens
if I touch it anyway?
Copy !req
478. Soul crushing terror?
Or... something.
Copy !req
479. So we should probably
put a towel on it, right?
Copy !req
480. Coming up on it.
Copy !req
481. Ready stations in five.
Copy !req
482. Hey, why is this Adam dude
so pissed off?
Copy !req
483. He's not some dude.
Copy !req
484. He's a weapon
of mass destruction.
Copy !req
485. You don't have to
raise your hand.
Copy !req
486. Question, if he's so powerful,
how are we supposed to stop him?
Copy !req
487. If we can get him
to say the word, "Shazam,"
Copy !req
488. Teth Adam will lose his power.
Copy !req
489. And we're hoping since he's had
Copy !req
490. a few thousand years
to sleep it off,
Copy !req
491. we can peacefully negotiate
the terms of his existence.
Copy !req
492. From the footage you showed us,
he doesn't really seem like
Copy !req
493. a "peacefully negotiate"
kind of guy.
Copy !req
494. Correct.
Copy !req
495. Look alive.
Copy !req
496. We're here.
Copy !req
497. Forgive me.
Copy !req
498. This is a message
Copy !req
499. - for all Intergang soldiers.
- Hey! Stop!
Copy !req
500. Kahndaq has its own
official superhero now.
Copy !req
501. Teth Adam!
Copy !req
502. Please.
Copy !req
503. - There he is! Move!
Copy !req
504. - Teth Adam!
- Move!
Copy !req
505. - Teth Adam—
Copy !req
506. Get up! Who's gonna
save you now, mate?
Copy !req
507. The statue?
Copy !req
508. That's my son.
Copy !req
509. He's just a boy.
He doesn't know what he's doing.
Copy !req
510. What are you doing?
Copy !req
511. Hang on. I recognize you.
Copy !req
512. Where is the crown?
Copy !req
513. - Let's go!
Copy !req
514. You could've showed up
a bit sooner.
Copy !req
515. But that was dope.
Copy !req
516. We need backup down here.
Copy !req
517. Tell them
the Man in Black sent you.
Copy !req
518. Well, yes, but not to me.
Say it to the bad guys.
Copy !req
519. But before you zap them.
Copy !req
520. - Catchphrase, then kill.
- Yes.
Copy !req
521. He's here.
Copy !req
522. You sense his presence?
Copy !req
523. No.
Copy !req
524. I assume he's the only person
in Kahndaq that can do that.
Copy !req
525. Fate and I'll take
the lead. Listen...
Copy !req
526. Now, you two hang back
till we call you.
Copy !req
527. We're the anvil,
you're the hammer.
Copy !req
528. You're ready.
Copy !req
529. - Uh, he just dropped the, um...
Copy !req
530. - Shit!
Copy !req
531. Be prepared.
Copy !req
532. Um...
Copy !req
533. Behind you!
Copy !req
534. Let us be!
Copy !req
535. I don't know their crimes,
but whatever they are,
Copy !req
536. these men should face
due process.
Copy !req
537. Then let the gods
make their judgment.
Copy !req
538. - Yeah!
- Yeah!
Copy !req
539. You don't look like
an Intergang.
Copy !req
540. We're the Justice Society.
Copy !req
541. Our mission is to protect
global stability.
Copy !req
542. We're here to restore peace
to Kahndaq.
Copy !req
543. And we will use force
if necessary.
Copy !req
544. Force is always necessary.
Copy !req
545. Teth Adam.
Copy !req
546. We know who you are
and what you are capable of.
Copy !req
547. There's no place for you
in the world of man.
Copy !req
548. You have two choices.
Copy !req
549. Kneel or die.
Copy !req
550. I was a slave until I died.
Copy !req
551. Then I was reborn a god.
Copy !req
552. I kneel before no one.
Copy !req
553. Fate, give me a distraction.
Copy !req
554. Just say, "Shazam."
We all go home.
Copy !req
555. I don't have a home.
Copy !req
556. Whoo!
Copy !req
557. Look at that suit. It's cool.
Copy !req
558. - Thanks. You, too.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
559. It was a hand-me-down.
It was from my uncle.
Copy !req
560. Hawkman just
does not give up, does he?
Copy !req
561. Nope.
Copy !req
562. Amon, where are you going?
Wait!
Copy !req
563. To help him!
Copy !req
564. Cyclone, Smasher,
now is your time.
Copy !req
565. - Let's roll!
Copy !req
566. What are you doing?
Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Copy !req
567. No!
Copy !req
568. I'll be right there!
Copy !req
569. You have the Crown of Sabbac.
Copy !req
570. I can't hold him
much longer.
Copy !req
571. Move!
Copy !req
572. I'm coming!
I'm zeroing in on your location!
Copy !req
573. I got him! Guys, I got him.
Copy !req
574. It's, uh... it's me, Al.
In case you didn't recognize me.
Copy !req
575. There's something different
about you.
Copy !req
576. Can't quite
put my finger on it.
Copy !req
577. You know, it's probably because
I'm six stories tall now.
Copy !req
578. But you, you're like a tornado.
Copy !req
579. I thought the two of you
did great work.
Copy !req
580. First time out...
Bravo.
Copy !req
581. Thanks. I mean, I got a little
turned around back there,
Copy !req
582. but, uh,
it all worked out, right?
Copy !req
583. You're damn right it did.
Copy !req
584. Let's hope Waller has
that cell ready for him.
Copy !req
585. You want me
to keep my hand here, right?
Copy !req
586. You'd better not let him up.
Copy !req
587. Uh... what do I— What do I do?
Guys?
Copy !req
588. Woo-hoo!
Copy !req
589. Long live The Champion!
Copy !req
590. Long live The Champion!
Copy !req
591. Long live The Champion!
Copy !req
592. Long live The Champion!
Copy !req
593. Yeah, he's definitely
still breathing.
Copy !req
594. Long live The Champion!
Copy !req
595. Where are you going?
We need to go after him.
Copy !req
596. We're not strong enough.
Copy !req
597. Oh, well, maybe next time
use your powers of prediction to figure that out
Copy !req
598. before we get our asses kicked.
Copy !req
599. I'm working on it.
Copy !req
600. Miss?
Copy !req
601. Excuse me, you mind
if I look in your bag?
Copy !req
602. Yes, I do mind.
Copy !req
603. Where are you going
with this, Kent?
Copy !req
604. She's got the Crown of Sabbac.
Copy !req
605. One catastrophe at a time.
Copy !req
606. We can't give him
a chance to regroup.
Copy !req
607. He's been spotted
entering the palace.
Copy !req
608. It's safe to say he's not
going there to surrender.
Copy !req
609. Why do you want
Teth Adam to surrender?
Copy !req
610. He's The Champion of Kahndaq.
Who are you?
Copy !req
611. The Justice Society?
Copy !req
612. We have been living
under military occupation
Copy !req
613. for 27 years,
and never seen you before.
Copy !req
614. You didn't come
when Intergang invaded our country,
Copy !req
615. when they stole our resources
and killed my husband.
Copy !req
616. But now, we finally
have our own hero
Copy !req
617. and you decide
to fly down here and save us?
Copy !req
618. Thank you, but...
we're covered.
Copy !req
619. Go and protect
international stability someplace else.
Copy !req
620. Oh, and second,
I don't have the crown.
Copy !req
621. Let me spell it out for you.
Copy !req
622. Teth Adam can't be
Kahndaq's champion
Copy !req
623. because he is not a hero.
Copy !req
624. Tell that...
Copy !req
625. to all the people
he just liberated.
Copy !req
626. I know what this looks like.
I... I do.
Copy !req
627. But I can assure you that my—
Copy !req
628. I am so sorry.
Was that expensive?
Copy !req
629. Me and you.
When we get back to the ship...
Copy !req
630. - Yes, sir.
- Me and you.
Copy !req
631. I—
Copy !req
632. Can we please
just see the crown?
Copy !req
633. I don't have it.
Copy !req
634. We don't have time for this.
Copy !req
635. Teth Adam first,
then the crown.
Copy !req
636. You don't have
any authority here.
Copy !req
637. Teth Adam has done nothing—
Copy !req
638. Teth Adam is not
who you think he is.
Copy !req
639. And how would you know?
Copy !req
640. We have access to ancient texts
Copy !req
641. that have been kept secret
for centuries.
Copy !req
642. And what exactly do these
supposed ancient texts say?
Copy !req
643. They say that his rage
nearly destroyed Kahndaq.
Copy !req
644. And we flew
all the way over here
Copy !req
645. to stop it
from happening again.
Copy !req
646. You want to
go in there alone?
Copy !req
647. Are you sure?
Copy !req
648. You want to go in
and fight Teth Adam again, be my guest.
Copy !req
649. But if you actually want
to resolve things peacefully,
Copy !req
650. without destroying
the rest of my city,
Copy !req
651. I'm your only shot.
Copy !req
652. You brought
the invaders with you.
Copy !req
653. They only want to talk.
Copy !req
654. They can talk. I won't listen.
Copy !req
655. When I was a little girl,
my grandmother told me the story
Copy !req
656. of how The Champion came
to this exact spot
Copy !req
657. to free the enslaved people
of Kahndaq
Copy !req
658. by defeating King Ahk-Ton
in battle.
Copy !req
659. But according
to the Justice Society,
Copy !req
660. that's not really
what happened.
Copy !req
661. They say that you didn't
come here to seek justice.
Copy !req
662. Hurry. Give it to me!
Copy !req
663. That you came
to exact revenge.
Copy !req
664. And in your anger...
Copy !req
665. Don't kill me.
I can give you anything you want.
Copy !req
666. This is what I want.
Copy !req
667. your power grew
until it became uncontrollable.
Copy !req
668. And the Council of Wizards
was forced to deem you unworthy
Copy !req
669. of the gifts that
you were granted.
Copy !req
670. We have
chosen recklessly...
Copy !req
671. and humanity
has paid the price.
Copy !req
672. And now, Teth Adam...
you must pay.
Copy !req
673. It wasn't your tomb
that I opened, was it?
Copy !req
674. It was your prison.
Copy !req
675. And, now, there's
a statue of you.
Copy !req
676. Out of the hope that
someday Kahndaq's champion would return.
Copy !req
677. But it's built on a lie,
isn't it?
Copy !req
678. I never said I was a hero.
Copy !req
679. I never claimed to be anything.
Copy !req
680. You may not have been a hero.
Copy !req
681. But that doesn't mean
that you can't be one now.
Copy !req
682. I will hear them out.
Copy !req
683. But if they choose to fight,
they choose to die.
Copy !req
684. Uncle Karim!
Copy !req
685. I can't believe
you're sitting around watching TV
Copy !req
686. when the most
epic day ever is—
Copy !req
687. - In here, little man.
Copy !req
688. Ishmael! My mom said
you got buried in the tomb.
Copy !req
689. Funny story, he didn't.
Copy !req
690. - Where's Adrianna?
Copy !req
691. She's back at the square—
Copy !req
692. We should go bail her out
right now.
Copy !req
693. But she's the one
who sent me home
Copy !req
694. to make sure the crown's safe.
Copy !req
695. It is safe, okay?
Somewhere else.
Copy !req
696. Definitely not here. Let—
Copy !req
697. - Put the bag down.
- What are you doing?
Copy !req
698. Back away.
Put the bag down, now.
Copy !req
699. Give him the bag.
Copy !req
700. Very good. Back away.
Copy !req
701. - Back away.
- Okay, I'm...
Copy !req
702. It's all going
to be okay, little man.
Copy !req
703. Let me teach you
some history that you've never learned
Copy !req
704. in one of your
mother's classes.
Copy !req
705. When we had a powerful king,
Copy !req
706. Kahndaq used to be something
much better than free.
Copy !req
707. It used to be great.
Copy !req
708. Run, Amon, run!
Copy !req
709. Crash the building.
Copy !req
710. I lost the kid.
He has the crown.
Copy !req
711. We're here
to negotiate the terms
Copy !req
712. of your peaceful surrender.
Copy !req
713. I'm not peaceful.
Nor do I surrender.
Copy !req
714. What have
your powers ever given to you?
Copy !req
715. Nothing but heartache.
Copy !req
716. You have no idea.
Copy !req
717. Then why are you
making this hard on us?
Copy !req
718. We both know you're not
supposed to be here.
Copy !req
719. It is you who is not supposed
to be here.
Copy !req
720. I want you all
to leave Kahndaq and never return.
Copy !req
721. Gladly,
with you as our prisoner.
Copy !req
722. How 'bout I rip
your little wings off instead?
Copy !req
723. I'd like to see you try.
Copy !req
724. Okay, more fighting
won't solve this.
Copy !req
725. - I disagree.
- Me, too.
Copy !req
726. Looks like we found
common ground.
Copy !req
727. This can only end one way.
Copy !req
728. - Mom?
- Amon.
Copy !req
729. I got home and Ishmael
was in the kitchen.
Copy !req
730. Ishmael's dead.
Copy !req
731. No, he shot Uncle Karim,
and he's after the crown.
Copy !req
732. Ground forces...
Copy !req
733. I'm hiding in our building,
and Intergang's here.
Copy !req
734. They're coming!
Copy !req
735. Intergang are after my son.
Copy !req
736. They don't want him,
they want the Crown of Sabbac.
Copy !req
737. I know you're not a hero.
Copy !req
738. But you're not a monster,
either.
Copy !req
739. I don't care what anyone says.
Copy !req
740. You saved me in that cave.
Copy !req
741. You didn't know me
and your first instinct was to save me.
Copy !req
742. I'm begging you.
Please, save my son.
Copy !req
743. Check
the whole place clean.
Copy !req
744. Cover all access points!
Copy !req
745. - Keep looking!
Copy !req
746. Area's clear.
Copy !req
747. There! There!
Take him! Take him!
Copy !req
748. Right there, right there!
Copy !req
749. Move, move!
Copy !req
750. Don't shoot him, I need him!
Copy !req
751. He's going down,
he's going down!
Copy !req
752. End of the road, kid!
Copy !req
753. Release the child.
Copy !req
754. - Whatever you say.
Copy !req
755. Yes! Thank you!
Copy !req
756. But maybe be more careful
with your word choice next time.
Copy !req
757. Oh! And remember
your catchphrase!
Copy !req
758. Time to go, Amon.
Copy !req
759. - Where's the crown?
- What crown?
Copy !req
760. - You want to be brave, eh?
- I want you to go to hell.
Copy !req
761. That's the plan, little man.
Copy !req
762. We're gonna go for a ride.
Come on.
Copy !req
763. Put me down! Put me down!
Copy !req
764. You should really be
more careful with your word choice next time.
Copy !req
765. - And tell them that the Man in Black—
Copy !req
766. He's right behind me.
Where the hell is everybody?
Copy !req
767. Mom?
Copy !req
768. Amon, where are you?
No, no, no. What?
Copy !req
769. I'm in one of their bikes.
Copy !req
770. What bikes?
Copy !req
771. Amon!
Copy !req
772. Can you hear me?
Copy !req
773. Mom, I'm okay.
Copy !req
774. Shit!
Copy !req
775. Activate infrared.
Copy !req
776. What are you doing?
Copy !req
777. Searching for the child.
Copy !req
778. No, you're murdering people.
Copy !req
779. How else do I find the child?
Copy !req
780. I can help you, but no more
extrajudicial killings.
Copy !req
781. I don't need any help.
Copy !req
782. Smasher, Cyclone!
Copy !req
783. What are you waiting for?
Copy !req
784. - Come on, let's go!
- Uh, okay.
Copy !req
785. Okay. I got this. I got this.
On the count of three.
Copy !req
786. One, two...
Copy !req
787. This feels a lot higher
than last time.
Copy !req
788. Whoa!
Copy !req
789. Ah! That was not cool!
Copy !req
790. - Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey.
Copy !req
791. Hey, guys. Slow down.
Copy !req
792. - I got you! I got you!
Copy !req
793. Hey, careful, dude!
I almost hit you.
Copy !req
794. I am so sorry. I just—
Copy !req
795. I don't really have
peripheral vision in the mask.
Copy !req
796. It's my uncle's.
I'll get it tailored.
Copy !req
797. Me and you.
Copy !req
798. Roger that.
Copy !req
799. - Who are you?
- Call me Dr. Fate.
Copy !req
800. How bad is it, Doc? Am I dying?
Copy !req
801. I'm not that kind of doctor.
Copy !req
802. But don't worry,
I can see the future.
Copy !req
803. This isn't how you're
going to die.
Copy !req
804. How do I die, then?
Copy !req
805. Just stay away
from electricity.
Copy !req
806. Wait, what? I'm an electrician.
Copy !req
807. How the hell
am I supposed to do that?
Copy !req
808. Oh, God.
Copy !req
809. The Champion's coming for you.
You know that, right?
Copy !req
810. I'm counting on it.
Copy !req
811. Please don't.
Copy !req
812. Teth Adam. Where are you?
Copy !req
813. You followed me?
Copy !req
814. My mind and body can exist
Copy !req
815. in different places
at the same time.
Copy !req
816. Did you find the boy?
Copy !req
817. Caught one of the bikes,
but he didn't have the child.
Copy !req
818. Bring me the prisoner.
I'll break his mind.
Copy !req
819. Uh...
Copy !req
820. You killed him, didn't you?
Copy !req
821. He didn't make it.
Copy !req
822. The bullet's extracted.
Copy !req
823. The tissue damage
has been repaired.
Copy !req
824. Blood pressure, 120 over 81.
Heart rate's at 74 bpm.
Copy !req
825. He'll be back on his feet
in no time.
Copy !req
826. That is insane.
Copy !req
827. The nanobots did
most of the work.
Copy !req
828. No, no, no. I'm not gonna
let you downplay this.
Copy !req
829. I literally just witnessed
a miracle.
Copy !req
830. What? I say something stupid?
Copy !req
831. No, it's just you can transform
your molecular structure,
Copy !req
832. grow a hundred times
your own size.
Copy !req
833. You're an impossibility
and the world still amazes you.
Copy !req
834. - I don't know, it's...
Copy !req
835. It's cool.
Copy !req
836. Thank you.
Copy !req
837. But it's not as cool
as nanobots.
Copy !req
838. That's how you do
your wind thing.
Copy !req
839. Well, the "wind thing"
is called aerokinesis.
Copy !req
840. And the nanobots were injected
into my bloodstream
Copy !req
841. by this really
messed-up scientist
Copy !req
842. who kidnapped me when I was 15.
Copy !req
843. I'm... so sorry.
Copy !req
844. No, you're good.
Copy !req
845. It seems like you
really turned it around.
Copy !req
846. Found your calling.
Copy !req
847. Hoping this is mine.
Copy !req
848. There's no point
in dwelling in the past.
Copy !req
849. It's already moved on from you.
Copy !req
850. Why did you say that?
Copy !req
851. You were blaming yourself
for trusting Ishmael.
Copy !req
852. Your thoughts are better spent
on the things you can change,
Copy !req
853. not those you can't.
Copy !req
854. You see the future?
Copy !req
855. Tell me how I get my son back.
Copy !req
856. By trusting us.
Copy !req
857. Karim will live.
We will save Amon.
Copy !req
858. It's what we do.
Copy !req
859. I suppose
they didn't have doors in your day.
Copy !req
860. Well, of course we did.
That's how we entered rooms.
Copy !req
861. What I did there
is called sarcasm.
Copy !req
862. Where is Amon?
Did you find him?
Copy !req
863. Not yet, but I will.
Copy !req
864. The men who took him
will suffer.
Copy !req
865. Maybe these guys can help.
Copy !req
866. There's an upside
to keeping prisoners.
Copy !req
867. They can answer our questions.
Copy !req
868. What did you do with my son?
Copy !req
869. - Adrianna. Adrianna.
Copy !req
870. I've learned that
in this modern world,
Copy !req
871. we shouldn't hurt
our prisoners.
Copy !req
872. We should treat them
with dignity, respect.
Copy !req
873. No.
Copy !req
874. Let's start with
just one simple question.
Copy !req
875. - Can either of you fly?
Copy !req
876. - Shit.
Copy !req
877. I think I'll sit this one out.
Copy !req
878. Tell me what you did with Amon.
Copy !req
879. You'd better not drop
those prisoners.
Copy !req
880. I'm not going to drop them.
Copy !req
881. I'm going to drop one of them.
Copy !req
882. Whoever answers first lives.
Where is he?
Copy !req
883. I don't know.
Copy !req
884. He's at our mine in the desert.
Copy !req
885. I can show—
Copy !req
886. Oh, you gotta be kidding me.
Copy !req
887. You said you wouldn't hurt
the prisoners.
Copy !req
888. That was sarcasm.
Copy !req
889. No, technically,
it was just a lie.
Copy !req
890. Intergang have a mine
in the desert.
Copy !req
891. - Amon is there.
- I know it.
Copy !req
892. It's near
the Al Hadidiyah Mountains.
Copy !req
893. Let's go.
Copy !req
894. I told you,
stop killing people!
Copy !req
895. They look alive to me.
Copy !req
896. Because I saved them.
Copy !req
897. Well, that's why I waited
until you were there.
Copy !req
898. I got the information I needed,
no one died.
Copy !req
899. I did it your way.
Copy !req
900. He does have a point.
Copy !req
901. I know it got lost
in all the confusion,
Copy !req
902. but we still have some issues
to settle here.
Copy !req
903. We know where Amon is.
We have to go.
Copy !req
904. There is no "we" here.
Copy !req
905. There are only heroes
and there are villains.
Copy !req
906. You think yourself a hero,
Copy !req
907. but you would let
these criminals go free,
Copy !req
908. knowing that many more
will suffer at their hands
Copy !req
909. unless we end them now.
Copy !req
910. Heroes don't kill people.
Copy !req
911. Well, I do.
Copy !req
912. Here we go.
Copy !req
913. Is that what I think it is?
Copy !req
914. Twenty-three pounds
of pure Eternium,
Copy !req
915. much denser than
typical artifacts of the period.
Copy !req
916. King must have had
a really strong neck.
Copy !req
917. No, it snapped
when I killed him.
Copy !req
918. What's that?
Copy !req
919. There's writing on the inside
of the rim.
Copy !req
920. "Life is the only path
to death."
Copy !req
921. That's what it says.
Copy !req
922. "Life is the only path
to death."
Copy !req
923. Well, that's
surprisingly obvious.
Copy !req
924. Could it have another meaning?
Copy !req
925. What if it means, like, um...
Copy !req
926. "Life is short.
Copy !req
927. You gotta hold on
to what you love."
Copy !req
928. Stop.
Copy !req
929. Deep.
Copy !req
930. It doesn't matter
what it means.
Copy !req
931. It should be buried
under the ocean for eternity.
Copy !req
932. That's not far from what
we had in mind
Copy !req
933. for you when this is over.
Copy !req
934. Or I could bury you with it.
Copy !req
935. We can't get rid of it now.
Copy !req
936. It's the one thing
that Intergang wants.
Copy !req
937. Believe me,
I know more than anyone
Copy !req
938. what this crown is capable of.
Copy !req
939. But we have to keep it
until my son is safe.
Copy !req
940. Adrianna...
Copy !req
941. Trust me,
we will get your son back.
Copy !req
942. They don't care about him.
They just want to defeat me.
Copy !req
943. Hand it over.
Copy !req
944. We can't risk letting the crown
fall into the wrong hands.
Copy !req
945. We'll find another way.
Copy !req
946. No.
Copy !req
947. You like to split the world
into good and bad,
Copy !req
948. but that's easy to do
when you're the one drawing the line.
Copy !req
949. All I care about is Amon.
Copy !req
950. And until he is safe,
we're all on the same side.
Copy !req
951. And you...
You will work together.
Copy !req
952. Set a course
for the Al Hadidiyah Mountains.
Copy !req
953. We'll go in at dawn.
Copy !req
954. I hope you can be
a team player.
Copy !req
955. I love teams.
Copy !req
956. That was sarcasm again, yes?
Copy !req
957. Very much so.
Copy !req
958. Good. Just checking.
Copy !req
959. A wise man
once told me a bad plan
Copy !req
960. is better than no plan at all.
Copy !req
961. That was before we had
a very bad plan.
Copy !req
962. Let it go.
Copy !req
963. I'd rather be fighting with him
than against him.
Copy !req
964. He's a murderer, Kent.
Copy !req
965. If he turns on us,
that kid is as good as dead.
Copy !req
966. You don't get to decide
who lives or dies.
Copy !req
967. That's... up to fate.
Copy !req
968. What's the helmet telling you?
Copy !req
969. Somebody's gonna die.
Copy !req
970. Who is it, Atom Smasher?
It's Atom Smasher.
Copy !req
971. Surprisingly, no.
Copy !req
972. Is it me?
Copy !req
973. When it's time for you and I
to say goodbye, you'll know.
Copy !req
974. All I can tell you is,
Copy !req
975. there's still time
to change the future.
Copy !req
976. Let's use it.
Copy !req
977. Hmm.
Copy !req
978. Well, I guess we're sticking
with the very bad plan.
Copy !req
979. The Al Hadidiyah Mine
Copy !req
980. is Intergang's
most valued asset.
Copy !req
981. I'm gonna land us right here,
Copy !req
982. cut off their access
to reinforcements.
Copy !req
983. But the perimeter of the mine
creates a natural fortress.
Copy !req
984. There's only one way in,
one way out.
Copy !req
985. We'll be an easy target
for their flybike patrol.
Copy !req
986. Communication is key.
Copy !req
987. We keep in step
or we get outflanked.
Copy !req
988. We move through the mine,
inch by inch,
Copy !req
989. until we find Amon.
Copy !req
990. This is where you come in.
Are you ready— Damn it.
Copy !req
991. Or we could just do that.
Copy !req
992. Pure Eternium shield.
Copy !req
993. Unbreakable,
even with your powers.
Copy !req
994. Amon!
Copy !req
995. You hurt him,
I will kill all of you.
Copy !req
996. Nobody has to die.
We just want the crown.
Copy !req
997. We don't have it.
Copy !req
998. Believe me, nothing good
will come from that crown.
Copy !req
999. No crown, no negotiation.
Copy !req
1000. I have it.
Copy !req
1001. It's right here.
Copy !req
1002. Release my son,
you can have it.
Copy !req
1003. What do you think you're doing?
Copy !req
1004. Intergang killed my husband.
Copy !req
1005. I'm not letting them
take my son, too.
Copy !req
1006. Not your son. Not your country.
Copy !req
1007. Not your decision to make.
Copy !req
1008. Stop there!
Copy !req
1009. It's okay.
Nothing is gonna happen to you.
Copy !req
1010. Hand it over, now.
Copy !req
1011. I'm sorry, Mom.
Copy !req
1012. No.
Copy !req
1013. Now, let Amon go.
Copy !req
1014. I thank you.
And I thank your friends
Copy !req
1015. for returning the crown
to its rightful owner.
Copy !req
1016. What kind of
champion of Kahndaq sides with foreign invaders?
Copy !req
1017. You have what you want.
Copy !req
1018. Let him go.
Copy !req
1019. Ishmael, what are you doing?
Copy !req
1020. Taking back what's mine.
Copy !req
1021. I'm the last living descendant
of King Ahk-Ton the Great.
Copy !req
1022. And you have just given me
everything I need
Copy !req
1023. to become the next
king of Kahndaq.
Copy !req
1024. My family passed
the knowledge on, you know,
Copy !req
1025. one to the next.
Copy !req
1026. The crown,
crafted by our ancestors,
Copy !req
1027. stolen by the wizards
and hidden away.
Copy !req
1028. But still a source
of great power,
Copy !req
1029. if only we can wield it.
Copy !req
1030. They say when Hurut died,
you wept like a baby.
Copy !req
1031. I wonder if you'll
do the same for them.
Copy !req
1032. Please, Ishmael.
Copy !req
1033. Sorry, Amon.
Copy !req
1034. Fate, get ready.
Copy !req
1035. Death is the only path to life.
Copy !req
1036. Amon!
Copy !req
1037. Amon!
Copy !req
1038. He's alive.
Copy !req
1039. But we need to get him
to the medical bay.
Copy !req
1040. - Where is he shot?
- It wasn't a bullet.
Copy !req
1041. It was me.
Copy !req
1042. Come.
Copy !req
1043. We're going with you.
Copy !req
1044. Just find the crown.
Get it on the cruiser.
Copy !req
1045. I found the crown.
But, um... it's not alone.
Copy !req
1046. How long we gonna
keep doing this?
Copy !req
1047. There's no point in fighting.
We both know no one can stop me.
Copy !req
1048. You're right.
Copy !req
1049. Only you can.
Copy !req
1050. Ishmael said you cried
when Hurut died.
Copy !req
1051. Who's Hurut?
Copy !req
1052. Hurut was a true champion
of Kahndaq.
Copy !req
1053. And he was also... my son.
Copy !req
1054. I won't always be here to protect you.
Copy !req
1055. I don't need protection.
I want to be free.
Copy !req
1056. Freedom is for the birds.
Copy !req
1057. Let someone else be the hero...
Copy !req
1058. The graveyards
are full of them.
Copy !req
1059. I tried to protect him.
Copy !req
1060. But I wasn't strong enough.
Copy !req
1061. Shazam!
Copy !req
1062. The wizards
decided that he would be their champion.
Copy !req
1063. But after The Champion's
many victories,
Copy !req
1064. the king went after
what Hurut loved the most.
Copy !req
1065. - Our family.
Copy !req
1066. Hold on, father.
Stay with me.
Copy !req
1067. With my powers...
you'll be safe.
Copy !req
1068. I couldn't protect your mother.
Copy !req
1069. Repeat what I say.
Copy !req
1070. - Shazam.
Copy !req
1071. Instead of battling the king...
Copy !req
1072. Instead of saving Kahndaq...
Copy !req
1073. Hurut chose to save...
Copy !req
1074. me.
Copy !req
1075. But he couldn't save himself
Copy !req
1076. from the king's assassins.
Copy !req
1077. The powers were not a gift
from the wizards...
Copy !req
1078. but a curse.
Copy !req
1079. Born... out of rage.
Copy !req
1080. The statue of The Champion
isn't you.
Copy !req
1081. It's Hurut.
Copy !req
1082. My son dreamt of
a better world.
Copy !req
1083. That's why he saved me.
Copy !req
1084. But the world was only
a better place with him in it.
Copy !req
1085. Kahndaq needed a hero.
Copy !req
1086. Instead, it got me.
Copy !req
1087. All this power...
Copy !req
1088. And the only thing
I can do with it is hurt people.
Copy !req
1089. I will speak the word
my son gave me,
Copy !req
1090. and I will give up my power.
Copy !req
1091. And when I do, you must ensure
I never speak it again.
Copy !req
1092. Shazam.
Copy !req
1093. Some men
are not meant... to be heroes.
Copy !req
1094. Hey!
Copy !req
1095. So beautiful.
Copy !req
1096. Surprised to see us?
Copy !req
1097. Surprise is a dirty word
in this business.
Copy !req
1098. Are you sure
you can handle him?
Copy !req
1099. You're the one who can
see the future,
Copy !req
1100. you'll tell me if we can't.
Copy !req
1101. Just be careful with this one.
Copy !req
1102. You know,
they say the gods created us,
Copy !req
1103. but we're the ones
who always wind up burying them.
Copy !req
1104. Waller sends her regards.
Copy !req
1105. They'll know
how to deal with him.
Copy !req
1106. To keep him
from regaining his powers,
Copy !req
1107. they'll keep him
in suspended animation.
Copy !req
1108. As long as he's submerged,
he won't be able to speak.
Copy !req
1109. He'll never say
another word again.
Copy !req
1110. Hey! There he is.
Copy !req
1111. Not all heroes wear capes,
but I think you earned this.
Copy !req
1112. - Well, statistically,
Copy !req
1113. most heroes don't wear capes.
But, yeah, try it on.
Copy !req
1114. Yeah, looks pretty good.
Copy !req
1115. That's a nice touch.
Copy !req
1116. Kent.
Copy !req
1117. - Kent!
Copy !req
1118. Mission accomplished?
Copy !req
1119. My vision hasn't changed.
Copy !req
1120. But Teth Adam's
out of the equation.
Copy !req
1121. Kent, if this isn't over,
I need to know what's coming.
Copy !req
1122. What is the helmet telling you?
Copy !req
1123. My vision has always shown me
a great calamity.
Copy !req
1124. The world in flames.
Copy !req
1125. We can stop it...
Copy !req
1126. but you die.
Copy !req
1127. You should've told me sooner.
Copy !req
1128. I have no fear of death.
Copy !req
1129. That's precisely
why I didn't tell you.
Copy !req
1130. The world needs
the Justice Society.
Copy !req
1131. The world needs you.
Copy !req
1132. But you can't choose
who lives and dies.
Copy !req
1133. That's fate, right?
Copy !req
1134. That sounds familiar.
Copy !req
1135. I remember seeing
my first airplane.
Copy !req
1136. It was an RAF deployment,
headed to the Western Front.
Copy !req
1137. Everyone on my street
came out to see them off.
Copy !req
1138. Mmm.
Copy !req
1139. But I didn't cheer.
Copy !req
1140. Even though I was only a boy.
Copy !req
1141. I knew where they were headed,
and what awaited them.
Copy !req
1142. Thanks to this,
I've lived longer
Copy !req
1143. than I could've
ever have hoped for.
Copy !req
1144. I've seen the world change
Copy !req
1145. in more ways
than I could've imagined.
Copy !req
1146. I'm still a sentimental fool.
Copy !req
1147. And I don't want
my friend to die.
Copy !req
1148. Ishmael said, "Death
is the only path to life."
Copy !req
1149. But that's not
what the inscription says.
Copy !req
1150. Right. "Life is
the only path to death."
Copy !req
1151. Maybe he got it backwards,
Copy !req
1152. like he read it in a mirror
or something.
Copy !req
1153. That's it.
Copy !req
1154. In Kahndaqi mythology,
the souls of the damned
Copy !req
1155. are sent
to the Rock of Finality.
Copy !req
1156. The underworld
is a mirror to our own.
Copy !req
1157. Here, turn the crown around.
Copy !req
1158. Now mirror the letters.
Copy !req
1159. See? That's what I missed.
Copy !req
1160. "Death is
the only path to life."
Copy !req
1161. He kidnapped Amon
on purpose,
Copy !req
1162. because he knew
that Teth Adam would kill him.
Copy !req
1163. And he believed
The Champion's magic
Copy !req
1164. would send him
to the Rock of Finality.
Copy !req
1165. As life is the path to death.
Copy !req
1166. Now your death
is a path to life.
Copy !req
1167. The wizards
have their champion,
Copy !req
1168. now we have ours.
Copy !req
1169. You will take
the throne of Kahndaq
Copy !req
1170. and unleash hell on Earth!
Copy !req
1171. Speak our name.
Copy !req
1172. "Sabbac."
Copy !req
1173. What the bloody hell
is that?
Copy !req
1174. Readout says
it's the demon, Sabbac.
Copy !req
1175. Get me closer. Now, right now!
Copy !req
1176. We're 100 miles out,
give me 20 seconds!
Copy !req
1177. The king has returned! The throne will be mine!
Copy !req
1178. Brace yourselves!
Copy !req
1179. Hold on!
Copy !req
1180. Now prepare to die.
Copy !req
1181. Wait, wait,
where's Uncle Karim?
Copy !req
1182. No matter
what happens, he does not sit on that throne.
Copy !req
1183. - Copy that.
- We're on it!
Copy !req
1184. Heads up!
Copy !req
1185. Activate infrared.
Copy !req
1186. Sabbac, show yourself!
Copy !req
1187. - Adrianna! Amon!
Copy !req
1188. That's for my cruiser.
Copy !req
1189. This is it.
Copy !req
1190. We can't win, Carter.
Copy !req
1191. Yeah, but the world burns
if we don't. Right?
Copy !req
1192. Bad plan is better than
no plan at all.
Copy !req
1193. No, no, no. What are you doing?
Copy !req
1194. Giving us a third option.
Copy !req
1195. It's supposed to be me.
Copy !req
1196. I didn't tell you
my whole vision, old friend.
Copy !req
1197. I did see your death.
Copy !req
1198. But I also found a way
to prevent it.
Copy !req
1199. It has been
an extraordinary life,
Copy !req
1200. but always with one foot
in the future.
Copy !req
1201. Carter, for the first time
in 100 years,
Copy !req
1202. when I look ahead...
Copy !req
1203. I see nothing.
Copy !req
1204. No, Kent.
Copy !req
1205. And...
Copy !req
1206. it's...
Copy !req
1207. beautiful.
Copy !req
1208. Wait, Kent!
Copy !req
1209. Goodbye...
Copy !req
1210. Kent!
Copy !req
1211. my dear friend.
Copy !req
1212. Kent!
Copy !req
1213. Hit it
from every side.
Copy !req
1214. Kent!
Copy !req
1215. No!
Copy !req
1216. I am Dr. Fate, sorcerer,
agent of the Lords of Order,
Copy !req
1217. defender against darkness
and chaos,
Copy !req
1218. but even my powers
cannot defeat you.
Copy !req
1219. There's no one
that can defeat me.
Copy !req
1220. There is one... There is one...
Copy !req
1221. Teth Adam.
Copy !req
1222. I know you can hear me.
Copy !req
1223. The battle your son
was meant to fight is upon us.
Copy !req
1224. Now you are the only one
Copy !req
1225. who can defeat
the Demon Champion.
Copy !req
1226. You have the power
Copy !req
1227. to be the destroyer
of this world.
Copy !req
1228. But you can also be its savior.
Copy !req
1229. You believe
you are not a worthy champion
Copy !req
1230. because the wizards
did not choose you.
Copy !req
1231. But fate does not
make mistakes. Neither did your son.
Copy !req
1232. We were wrong about you.
Copy !req
1233. The world doesn't always need
a white knight.
Copy !req
1234. Sometimes it needs
something darker.
Copy !req
1235. Don't you dare
give up on us now.
Copy !req
1236. The world needs you.
Copy !req
1237. Kent!
Copy !req
1238. No!
Copy !req
1239. Mom? What's happening?
Copy !req
1240. It's Sabbac.
Copy !req
1241. He commands
the Legions of Hell.
Copy !req
1242. Whatever happens...
Copy !req
1243. you stay behind me.
Copy !req
1244. Don't worry,
I die by electricity!
Copy !req
1245. You want some Kahndaq?
Come and get it!
Copy !req
1246. Come and get it!
Copy !req
1247. No, no. No.
Copy !req
1248. - Don't send me home,
I can help. -I know.
Copy !req
1249. But you can do better
than swinging a stick.
Copy !req
1250. The Gods
have brought us together again.
Copy !req
1251. It's not your time, Father.
Copy !req
1252. Hey!
Copy !req
1253. What are you all
standing around for?
Copy !req
1254. This is our chance.
Copy !req
1255. With these hands,
we built Kahndaq.
Copy !req
1256. And with these hands,
we will set it free!
Copy !req
1257. The people need a hero.
Copy !req
1258. No, father.
They need to be free.
Copy !req
1259. What are we waiting for?
Copy !req
1260. Say the word.
Copy !req
1261. Shazam.
Copy !req
1262. The people of Kahndaq
rise up against you!
Copy !req
1263. Yes!
Copy !req
1264. I got this.
Copy !req
1265. Go get him.
Copy !req
1266. You know what I have to do.
Copy !req
1267. Beat his ass!
Copy !req
1268. Let the fate of Kahndaq
be decided
Copy !req
1269. by a true battle of champions.
Copy !req
1270. Let's end this.
Copy !req
1271. It's a lot of them.
Copy !req
1272. - It's a bit more
than I thought. -Yeah.
Copy !req
1273. Just a bit.
Copy !req
1274. Hey, Mom!
Copy !req
1275. These are our streets!
Our city!
Copy !req
1276. - Free Kahndaq!
Copy !req
1277. The wizards' powers
were wasted on you.
Copy !req
1278. You are not a hero.
Copy !req
1279. No. I'm not.
Copy !req
1280. - But he is.
Copy !req
1281. You cannot stand against me.
Copy !req
1282. I am Kahndaq's true champion.
Copy !req
1283. I learned this trick
from an old friend.
Copy !req
1284. You can control it!
Copy !req
1285. You have to!
Copy !req
1286. Tell them
the Man in Black sent you.
Copy !req
1287. - Yes!
Copy !req
1288. I never thought I'd be happy
to see you.
Copy !req
1289. I'm only here because of him.
Copy !req
1290. That makes two of us.
Copy !req
1291. See you around, old friend.
Copy !req
1292. Think you can keep him
out of trouble?
Copy !req
1293. As long as no one
comes looking for it.
Copy !req
1294. Fair enough.
Copy !req
1295. Just be careful.
Copy !req
1296. The kind of justice
you dish out can darken your soul.
Copy !req
1297. It's his darkness
that lets him do
Copy !req
1298. what heroes like you cannot.
Copy !req
1299. I guess we'll find out,
won't we?
Copy !req
1300. I thought we made
a pretty good team back there.
Copy !req
1301. Just saying.
Copy !req
1302. We made a great team.
Copy !req
1303. - Maybe we could—
- Don't push it.
Copy !req
1304. Smasher, let's go.
Copy !req
1305. Long live The Champion!
Copy !req
1306. Long live The Champion!
Copy !req
1307. You could lead them.
Copy !req
1308. How does it feel?
Copy !req
1309. Wrong.
Copy !req
1310. So, what now?
Copy !req
1311. Does this mean you're finally
gonna be our hero?
Copy !req
1312. Kahndaq has always had heroes.
Copy !req
1313. And it still does.
Copy !req
1314. What it needs now
is a protector.
Copy !req
1315. Thank you, Teth Adam.
Copy !req
1316. Perhaps
that name is a little...
Copy !req
1317. old-fashioned.
Copy !req
1318. So what should we call you?
Copy !req
1319. Okay, "Black Adam."
Copy !req
1320. My name is Amanda Waller.
Copy !req
1321. Congratulations,
you have my attention.
Copy !req
1322. This is gonna be
your only warning.
Copy !req
1323. You don't want to stay
in my prison, that's fine.
Copy !req
1324. Kahndaq is your prison now.
Copy !req
1325. You step one foot
outside of it, you will not live to regret it.
Copy !req
1326. There's no one on this planet
that can stop me.
Copy !req
1327. I can call in a favor
and send people
Copy !req
1328. who aren't from this planet.
Copy !req
1329. Send them all.
Copy !req
1330. As you wish.
Copy !req
1331. It's been a while
since anyone's made the world this nervous.
Copy !req
1332. Black Adam.
Copy !req
1333. We should talk.
Copy !req
