Imra Ardeen : Everyone's been very kind so far. It's fascinating to see Earth this far back.
Winn Schott : Oh, yeah. This must be like medieval times for you.
Imra Ardeen : You eat things with your hands. So fun. Mon-El tells me there's a place in town where you can eat all the ribs you want. What did you call it? "Food until you're full"?
Mon-El : Very close. It's "All you can eat."

Imra Ardeen : Do you need fresh eyes? I can take a look through the data you've collected, suspects you might have already dismissed. I'm a 31st century version of a kip.
Winn Schott : I think you mean "cop."
-
Mon-El : It's a long story.
Kara Danvers : Well, seven years is a long time.
Mon-El : Strange as it may sound, the 31st century is actually not that different from today.
Winn Schott : What, better smartphones?
Imra Ardeen : What's a phone?
Winn Schott : [amused] "What's a phone?". Oh, the future's awesome.
-
Winn Schott : So, a legion of superheroes. Ha!
J'onn J'onzz : Sounds formidable.
Mon-El : Not nearly enough. The future has, uh... some bad things happening.
Imra Ardeen : Yeah, the darkness is spreading.
Kara Danvers : What's that? What do you mean?
Mon-El : Well, my team and I were on a mission, and, uh... we got into some trouble. Our ship got knocked into one of those, uh... those disruptions.
J'onn J'onzz : A wormhole?
Mon-El : Yes.
Imra Ardeen : We crash-landed back on Earth 12,000 years ago.
Alex Danvers : So you traveled back in time by accident?
Mon-El : Which is exactly why we couldn't just go home. So we went into cryo-sleep and set the ship to wake us up when we returned to the 31st century. But then the torpedo hit the ship, and damaged the ship, and that's when I woke up. But do you think we can fix it? Can you help us get home?
J'onn J'onzz : We'll do everything in our power to help. But for now... settle in.
Alex Danvers : You might be here for a while.
-
Imra Ardeen : I know that you and Mon-El used to be together. And I... I know how difficult me being here must be.
Kara Danvers : No, no, Imra. It's fine.
Imra Ardeen : Mon-El loved you so much, Kara. You know, when he first arrived in my time, he spoke only of finding a way back to you. And he certainly didn't move on lightly. I mean, he wouldn't even look at another woman for years. Until he realized he wasn't going to find a way back. I just thought you should know that.

Mon-El : Well, technology has developed beyond imagining, but at the end of the day, it's still in service of... of communicating with each other, and entertaining each other, and also killing each other. In this day or a thousand years, conflict is constant, but so is strength.
Imra Ardeen : And... and what's where we come in.
Alex Danvers : So, what are you, um, soldiers?
Imra Ardeen : The governments were overwhelmed by violence. By chaos. Mon-El organized us. And we banded together to help Earth's leaders keep the peace, at home and in the stars. We call ourselves the Legion. And we exist because of you.
Kara Danvers : Because of me?
Imra Ardeen : Mm.
Mon-El : You inspired me. So when I founded the Legion, I chose to use you as an example of what we could be. Of what we aspire to be.
Imra Ardeen : When I learned about your life and work, your compassionate fight for justice and your devotion to protecting others, everything just crystallized. Your example gave my life purpose. I can't express how much it means for me to meet you in person.
