Quotes 

• Samantha Arias : Explain it to me again.

  Lena Luthor : When Reign is triggered, your genome is re-written. It's why you can't shoot heat beams out of your eyes whenever you want.

  Samantha Arias : So you think there's an enzyme in my body that triggers a change.

  Lena Luthor : Yes. And if we can isolate it, we can eliminate it. And no more Reign. But in order to find it, I need to study you while you're her.

  Samantha Arias : And the only definite way to turn me into her is to electrocute me.

  Lena Luthor : The pain response brings her out.

  Samantha Arias : How much is it gonna hurt?

  Lena Luthor : We're gonna start with 500 volts.

  Samantha Arias : That's not what I asked.

  Lena Luthor : A lot. If we had more time, we could find another way. But we don't. So we have to do it.

  Samantha Arias : Okay.

  Lena Luthor : Okay.

• Samantha Arias : Reign was there, in the dark valley.

  Lena Luthor : What valley?

  Samantha Arias : I just thought it was in my dreams, my nightmares, but it was real this time. And I remember everything. She was talking to me like I'm talking to you.

  Lena Luthor : It's a parallel dimension. It's where you go when Reign takes over. It's why you can't remember anything. When your body transforms into Reign, your mind literally goes there.

  Samantha Arias : Well, we were both there this time.

  Lena Luthor : I mean, I've been repressing Reign's consciousness. She couldn't... she couldn't manifest fully in this world, so she existed in that one with you, together.

  Samantha Arias : She said they were coming for us.

  Lena Luthor : Who's coming?

  Samantha Arias : I don't know. Did you find what triggers the transformation?

  Lena Luthor : Not yet. I need to increase the voltage. I need more time to observe Reign.

  Samantha Arias : [sighs]  Okay.

• Samantha Arias : I can't go back in there. We have to find another way.

  Lena Luthor : Okay, there is no other way. I know how hard this is...

  Samantha Arias : No! No, you don't. It's like facing your shadow. Everything dark you've ever feared about yourself.

  Lena Luthor : If you don't do this, Reign will take control of your body, and she will condemn you to that place forever, okay? She will win.

• Lena Luthor : James, this really isn't a good time.

  James Olsen : Winn and Alex are sick.

  Lena Luthor : I'm so sorry.

  James Olsen : Lena, you have the largest pharmaceutical company in the country. I-I really need you to put your people on this.

  Lena Luthor : I'm already working on it.

  James Olsen : [surprised]  You are?

  Lena Luthor : Yeah.

  James Olsen : Well, that-that's great news, right? Have you told Supergirl?

  Lena Luthor : Listen, I-I can't really say anything, and-and please don't say anything to her. I don't want to overpromise, but... I'm really close to a breakthrough. I'm really sorry I can't be there with you.

  James Olsen : Yeah, it's just, uh... it's just tough being here with him like this and not being able to do anything.

• Samantha Arias : She said she was gonna kill Ruby.

  Lena Luthor : No, no, she can't kill her. Ruby's safe.

  Samantha Arias : Did you find the trigger?

  Lena Luthor : No.

  Samantha Arias : Then Ruby is not safe. We need to stop Reign.

  Lena Luthor : That is what we are doing, Sam.

• Samantha Arias : Before we started this, Alex was trying to figure out what was wrong with me. Or maybe Supergirl. You can call Supergirl. You can...

  Lena Luthor : Sam.

  Samantha Arias : You can find her, right?

  Lena Luthor : Sam. Sam, okay? Reign is the most wanted criminal in the world. If I go to Supergirl or the government before I can prove I can turn her off, they will treat you like you are the same, all right? They will lock you up, they will dissect you...

  Samantha Arias : It wouldn't be any worse than this, Lena. We need to get help.

  Lena Luthor : Shh. Okay. I swear I am the only one who knows how to do this. I promise you, I will do it. I'm not gonna let her hurt Ruby. Ever.

• Supergirl : Lena, the Worldkillers are coming. We have to get you somewhere...

  [seeing Samantha in the containment cell] 

  Supergirl : ...safe

  [tapping the invisible force field] 

  Supergirl : What is this?

  Lena Luthor : I was gonna tell you.

  Supergirl : Tell me what?

  Samantha Arias : About me.
