I never meant
to love you, Alexandra.

It was your texts.

They...

awakened something in me.

[Alexandra] What about Kaitlyn?

She'd block me if she ever
found out about this.

- I don't care if she blocks...
- You guys! Can you believe it?

There's a secret show
at the Lazarus Pit tonight.

I'm finally gonna
get to see them live!

The greatest band

in the history
of the universe...

Ra's al Ghul

and The League of Shadows.

[heavy metal music playing]

Guys, hear Kitty Kumbata?

She shreds harder than
every other guitarist combined.

And White Willow, I mean,

she positively screams
rock and roll!

And Zeddmore Washington,

no drummer in the world
has more attitude

than this guy.

Ooh, and let's not forget
the legend behind it all,

the coolest musician ever
to walk the Earth...

[plays metal guitar lick]

My personal guitar hero,

Ra's al Ghul!

[amp crackles]

[blows]

Never heard of him.

[huffs] He's only a legend
to people with real taste,

which you guys
obviously don't have.

- [pop music playing]
- [gasps]

Oh, hey, guys. Have you heard
the latest hit from my...

favorite band...

um... Up Past 8?

Wait. Did you say Up Past 8?

[laughs] I can't believe you
listen to that boy band garbage.

What are you, 14?

- Um. Yes?
- Ugh.

That is not music.

Well, I think they're cute

and have
very nice singing voices.

[groans]

Especially Braxton McNair.

His voice is so dreamy!

And CJ Casablanca
writes the lyrics.

Pure poetry!

And Ashton Van der Wurf's moves

make me want to dance
all day long!

Their music just makes me feel
so good.

And I have two tickets
for tomorrow's show!

Who wants to go with me?

I never meant
to love you, Alexandra.

- It was your texts.
- [groans softly]

Ah, forget them, Beecher.

Some people
just don't get music,

you know, like we do.

So you'll go to the show
with me?

Um, yeah, no.

- But I thought...
- Beecher...

Ah, Beecher, Beecher, Beecher.
Here's the deal.

Music is about being cool,

and Up Past 8?

Well, they're just
way too popular to be cool.

That doesn't make sense.

Tell you what,
I'll see your two tickets

and raise you two cooler ones.

You, my friend,
are coming with me

to see Ra's and The League.

But first...

we gotta work on your image.

[gulps]

[rock music playing]

[clippers buzzing]

[gasps]

Not bad, not bad.

I still think a nose ring
and a sick neck tattoo would

pull the look together.

[screeches] A what?

Dude. You don't know
what you're missing.

I'd be covered in those things
if it weren't for this

dumb, impervious super skin.

And don't even get me started
about my hair,

it'd be like ten colors! Ugh!

Come on, we're gonna be late!

[shudders]

[heavy metal music playing]

I don't know, Kara.

I feel a little weird
about all this.

[Kara] Oh, pumpkin,
who cares how you feel.

You look cool.

Now that you're not so you,

they're sure to let us in.

All right, kid,
show me what you got.

Get your freak on.

[grunting]

Oh, whoa, okay, okay, not...
not that freaky.

All right, watch me.
[breathes deeply]

Yeah!

Now, you try.

[breathes deeply] Yeah!

[groaning]

You're doing great, kid!

- [Kara whooping]
- [Karen screaming]

[Ra's] Bring her to me.

[laughs]

[Karen gasps] Ah! [grunts]

Okay, Okay. We gotta
work on your dismount.

You have been summoned.

- [Karen gasps]
- Summoned?

Backstage.

[whispers] Backstage.

- [normal voice] Yeah!
- Uh, Kara?

Kara!

Oh, no! Oh, sorry.
Um, excuse me. Oh!

Whoa! Kara!

[exclaims]

[gasps]

[yelps]

There you are.

Oh, thank goodness.

Come on.

[elevator dings]

[Kara exclaims softly]

Come. The band awaits.

- [Karen gasps]
- [exhales]

All right. Okay, let's be cool.

Remember, Karen, bands can
smell the lame a mile away.

[plays power chord]

[plays rock riff]

[shrieks]

[Ra's] Please. Step inside.

Um, Kara,

can we, like, maybe, just go?

Karen, how many times
I gotta tell ya,

- just be...
- [both gasp]

[Ra's] Welcome, Kara Danvers.

I am Ra's al Ghul.

[gasps] Oh, my gosh,
oh, my gosh, oh, my gosh!

Ra's al Ghul knows my name! How
does Ra's al Ghul know my name?

How does Ra's al Ghul
know your name?

Of course I know your name,
Kara Danvers.

I'm very much aware that
you are a super fan.

One of my most faithful
Shadow puppets.

- The faithfulliest!
- [Ra's] Indeed.

I have toured the world with The
League of Shadows many times over,

as I have amassed an army

of the most discerning
Shadow puppets.

True believers to my cause.

Um... cause?

Oh, rock and roll, of course.

Yeah, Karen,
rock and roll. Duh.

I mean, best cause of all,
am I right, Mr. al Ghul?

I can tell that you, above all,

could be my
ultimate Shadow puppet.

In fact, I've rarely met
someone so cool.

[gasps] I'm cool?

[Ra's]
Because of your dedication,

I wish to bestow upon you
a gift.

[gasps] The Demon's Fang.

[Ra's]
My signature guitar pick.

Enjoy the show.

- [crowd cheering]

This one goes out to a very
special Shadow puppet...

Kara Danvers.
