[birds chirping] [dog barking in distance]
[yawning]
Good morning-- Uh, first, coffee.
Then talk.
[hums excitedly]
You still have the thing today?
I can't cancel.
Besides, I think it might be... helpful for, um, Halo.
[Will] Speaking of our house guest, and who should be responsible for her...
[sighs] I know.
This was his mission. I know.
So, where is he? Where's d*ck?
[birds calling in distance]
[patriotic music playing on cell phone]
[crowd applauding]
[groans]
[Megan] Didn't know you'd be bringing back a souvenir.
[Conner] Sorry.
[Megan chuckles] It's okay.
He kinda reminds me of you back in the day.
[Brion growls]
[growling]
[snoring]
[Conner] Yeah, he kind of reminds me of me back in the day, too.
[Megan] Do we know how long he's staying?
[Conner] Not exactly.
[Megan] Right.
So, where's d*ck?
[d*ck on voicemail] Hey, this is d*ck. You know what to do.
[voicemail beeps] [Jefferson] It's Jeff.
Again.
I put Dr. Jace up at the Luthor Grande.
And now I'm taking her to brunch, because...
Because I actually don't know what else to do with her.
d*ck, where are you?
[theme music playing]
[Will] Absolutely.
[door opens] We'll be there. We'll be ready.
That's right, ma'am.
At Bowhunter Security, we're always on point.
[chuckles]
[chuckles] It's my pleasure. We'll see you soon.
Let me guess.
You fellas are in need of some top-of-the-line security. Am I right?
Not exactly.
I know Artemis probably brought you up to speed on Markovia.
We lost a shipment of trafficked meta-teens down a boom tube.
They're probably being deployed in deep space by now.
Oh, of course.
Look, the League's been informed.
I'm not happy about all this, but I need to move on.
[scoffs] Yeah, you've moved on so much, you completely neglected to mention Brion Markov, Dr. Jace and that Halo girl.
This is a higher priority.
I have solid intel on a meta-human trafficking ring right here in Star City.
Look, Roy and Jim are on board.
But, you know, I thought we'd make it an all-Harper mission.
All-Harper and one Grayson.
Are you in or not?
[Will] Hmm.
[clicks tongue] Huh.
I know you're doing that on purpose.
Hmm, I guess I could make the time.
Great. So here's the plan--
But only if you guys help me out with something first.
I'm game. Whatever, bro.
What are we talking about here?
Seat belts, everyone.
You enjoying yourself?
In this get-up? [scoffs] No.
Yeah, I think he was talking to Will.
Come on, Grayson. Let's not pretend you were planning to hit your traffickers before nightfall.
Well, I-- That is the Dark Knight way, right?
Yeah. I hear all those bad boys turn into pumpkins in daylight. [engine starts]
[sighs] Whose idea was it to put all three of you together on one mission?
[all] Yours.
Don't you have any actual employees?
Of course, but most of my guys were celebrating a company softball victory last night.
Ate some bad Chicken Whizees.
Food poisoning. expl*sive diarrhea.
Dude. TMI.
You guys wanted to know why I needed the manpower.
So, you help me today, I help you tonight.
Fine. Let's just go.
[engine revs]
[upbeat music playing] [video game sound effects trilling]
[laughing]
[girl laughing]
Whoa. [grunts]
[game-over music plays]
Oh, um, I got a little carried away there.
But thanks. Or, uh...
Sorry.
[chuckling] [upbeat music plays]
Thanks for me staying in your home.
Or, uh, sorry.
[chuckles]
Well, we had to do something with you.
[Tigress] Nightwing... what do we do now?
[Nightwing] We...
We go home. We're done here.
[Tigress] What about them?
[Nightwing] Look, we saved their lives.
We never promised to adopt them.
They can manage just fine without--
[Nikolas gasps]
[Tigress sighs]
[gasps]
Uh, try not to fly, unless you're doing it on purpose.
Unless I'm doing it on purpose.
Yeah.
Hey, your English is getting better.
I remember more words now.
How about your name?
Halo?
[sighs] Anything about your life?
Sorry.
So, um, if you can't remember anything, why the hijab?
It... It feels right.
Okay?
[chuckles softly] Of course.
Of course.
Look, don't worry.
Nightwing's running a background check.
And once he figures out who you are, we can get you back home to your family.
Now? We go there now?
Oh... No. I had a previous appointment I need to keep, but it might help you out, too.
[energy pulsating]
[whooshing]
[Doctor Fate] Where is she?
I'm sure she'll be here any second.
But since we're waiting, this is Halo.
She's lost her memory.
I thought maybe you could give her a mystic once-over or something?
[Doctor Fate] I sense an old soul in this very young body.
But who is Fate to judge such things?
Wait, what?
Uh... Hi.
[Artemis] Zatanna.
Oh, I was just-- [Doctor Fate] Child of magic, do you understand the terms of our agreement?
Yes. One hour.
Just like last year, and the year before that, and the year before that.
[Doctor Fate] Be grateful Nabu grants you this boon at all.
Daddy.
[Zatara] Zatanna.
[indistinct radio chatter] [truck beeping]
[Jim] Goode VR goggles?
Goode pays good money for Bowhunter Security to secure 'em.
For video game accessories.
Jim, you need to spend less time with your geraniums.
These are top-of-the-line virtual and augmented reality goggles.
Advanced graphics, totally immersive.
Everybody's into these.
And they go for beaucoup bucks on the black market.
[gasps] [Jim chuckles]
Don't know if you've heard, but I have a girl sleeping over.
Over at your place, I know.
Over my couch, d*ck. Two feet over my couch.
So you're saying she's a conversation piece.
I'm saying someone needs to have a serious conversation about what to do with her long-term.
Seriously, why are we even here?
No one's taking this stuff in broad daylight.
We're taking this stuff in broad daylight.
[sirens wailing in distance]
[video game music playing] It's like I'm on the bridge of the Starship Engager.
Bro, walk your geek-self five feet behind me.
[Leroy] No, no, no. You see, you don't understand.
[Jace] Try to understand, Brion.
I had to activate your meta-gene.
You needed your family's hereditary geo-force to fight Baron Bedlam.
[grunts]
[Black Lightning] It's not safe for you in Markovia.
But where are we to go?
Not exactly gourmet.
[Jace] Mmm.
American genetically modified beef. It's a nice change.
Markovian meat is so gamey.
Jefferson, thank you.
After what I did, it's more than I deserve.
We've been through this already.
Bedlam coerced you.
I thought I could help by being there to watch out for the children.
I was a fool.
We all make mistakes we can't take back.
But you can make a new start here in Metropolis.
This is the city of tomorrow.
I'm more concerned about Brion and Halo's tomorrows.
I feel responsible for them, as if they were my own children.
I don't know if that makes any sense, but...
Hey, I'm a dad with my own two bundles of responsibility.
Then you do understand.
You're good to go.
Wait a sec. These aren't the right drivers.
Their credentials check out.
The clipboard doesn't lie.
The clipboard doesn't talk.
I know that guy.
He's one of Brick's thugs. To the SUV!
[engine starts]
[tires screeching]
[birds calling]
So, no one's taking this stuff in broad daylight, huh?
Okay, I stand corrected.
I'll just blow out the tires. Problem solved.
[Will] What? No!
How about a solution that doesn't dump the merchandise into the ocean?
Someone's sure gotten picky in his old age.
Incoming.
[both] Uh-oh.
[tires screeching]
[all screaming]
[all screaming]
[horn blaring]
Can I at least sh**t at that guy?
Yes! You can sh**t at that guy.
[Wolf farts, grunts]
[snares]
Does that beast do anything beside sleep?
That beast is called Wolf.
And, no. Lately, that's pretty much it.
[sighs]
Tell me again what we're doing out here.
I'm doing my job.
And you are trying to unwind.
I'm fine.
I have no need to unwind.
Trust me, you're wound.
[Jace] But where are we to go?
[Black Lightning] We'll, uh, figure something out.
[Tigress] Okay. Okay, fine.
Um, and I'll deal with Little Miss Halo.
But what about the Prince? [Nightwing] What about him?
[Superboy] His brother just kicked him out of the country.
[grunts, yells]
[Brion panting]
[Superboy] Plus, he's kind of a rage monster.
[Nightwing] So, right up your alley?
[Superboy sighs] Yeah.
Can't you pay someone to fix that?
Someone's paying me to fix it.
And I can use the money.
But how can you stand it?
You have the world's most amazing motorcycle.
Why bother with this?
[Conner] Again, the money.
Besides, Sphere doesn't need my help.
This bike does.
It needs you?
[chuckles]
It's a machine. I don't understand.
[Conner] Here.
Clean that clutch spring, then maybe you will.
[sh*ts f*ring]
[tires screeching] [grunting]
[tires screeching]
[grunting]
You always wanted a convertible.
[Brick grunts]
Okay, I'm out.
Rent-a-cops with grapnels?
How much do they pay these guys?
"An old soul in a very young body."
[sighs] Does that mean anything to you?
[sighs] Do you remember anything at all from before we met in the cemetery?
[Halo] I...
[gasping]
[liquid bubbling]
[muffled screaming]
[g*ns f*ring] [women screaming]
[roaring]
Nothing.
Darkness.
[horn blaring]
[tires screeching]
[grunting]
[screaming]
I need to take another look at those credentials.
So, private security seems pretty sweet.
Yeah, decent money, benefits.
And I get home in time for dinner with Lian.
[grunts]
You rent-a-cops cannot be making enough scratch for this gig.
I own the company.
Too bad for you.
[Brick grunts]
Aw, man, my insurance premiums.
[tires screeching] g*n it!
[both grunt]
[tires screeching] [crashing]
Last time I ask you for a favor.
I loved that SUV.
Hey, this is your gig.
At least we don't have to worry about Brick.
[gasps]
[grunting]
We are here for your friends, but we do not talk to them?
We are not with them?
We're not here for this part.
No. Please, Daddy.
[sobbing] It isn't fair. It's not enough time.
I know.
But if we do not hold to the letter of the agreement, Nabu will never give us another opportunity.
I love you, Zatanna.
And I'll see you next year.
[gasps]
[sobbing] No.
No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No.
[shushing]
It'll be okay.
Will it?
We are here for this part.
[gasps]
[groaning]
You want another jolt or are you gonna pull over?
[grunts] Pulling over. Pulling over now.
Good call.
[brakes screeching] [yelps]
[sighs]
[Jim] Hi. [screams]
[Henry groans]
[truck door closes] [grunts]
[grunts]
[groans]
[d*ck] Two down, one to go.
Kinda like old times, huh, Wall?
It's Will, not Wall.
That's... That's what I said.
Is it just the red hair?
What are you talking about?
Your need for a Wally West substitute.
What? That's ridiculous.
Is it? You already had Roy and Jim. You didn't need me.
Not for a mission, anyway.
I needed someone who knows the city.
You needed someone who knows you.
[Brick grunting]
Do you low-rent heroes know how much this suit costs?
Seriously?
Hey, we're in the middle of a thing here.
Y'all interrupted my thing.
Be rude not to return the favor.
[Brick yells]
[grunting]
[d*ck gasps] [Will] I get it.
[Brick grunting]
You needed someone to give you a reality check.
To keep you honest.
To tell you what no one else will tell the boss.
You're babbling. [grunts]
[groans] [d*ck grunting]
[grunts]
[groans]
[footsteps thudding] [gasps]
[both grunt]
[grunts] Well, fine.
Wally's not here, so I'll say it.
What? What are you gonna say?
You already know.
You're dropping the ball with these Markovian kids.
Taking care of strays wasn't the mission.
[Brick yells]
[d*ck grunting]
[straining]
The mission is what the mission becomes.
You know that.
Those kids need you. Your team needs you.
[d*ck grunts] It was just one op.
I don't do teams anymore.
You do now.
[Brick] Hey, cut it out.
Put me down!
[grunts] The guy makes a reasonable request.
[Will] Plus, he's really heavy.
Oh, man, this ain't right.
[grunting] [Daddy Lidz yelps]
[Brick grunting]
[groans]
This ain't right at all.
[groaning]
[gasping]
I surrender. I surrender!
Great. Could you hold the wheel?
[stammers] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[exhales]
[indistinct radio chatter]
Seriously, who are you guys?
Bowhunter Security.
Always on point.
[Brick] Mmm-hmm.
[electricity crackling] [screaming]
[sighs]
You were right. Of course I am.
I'm older and wiser.
You're a clone. You're the youngest guy here.
Hey, I'm older than Jim. [Jim] But I'm prettier.
I'll step up.
I'm gonna make it right with Halo, Brion, and Jace.
Never doubted it for a moment.
All goggles present and accounted for, boss.
The clipboard never lies.
You know what? Private security's more exciting than I thought.
Sounds like the beginnings of a Harper family business.
Don't push it. Baby steps.
Now, I believe there's one more thing on our to-do list.
[sirens wailing]
[thugs groaning]
[indistinct chatter]
[woman] Are we free?
I think we looked better in our Bowhunter Security uniforms.
No, you do not.
