- John Constantine: [to a comatose Nora] I would've come sooner, Nora, but... do you have any idea how difficult it is to acquire a phoenix's tail feather? I didn't.
- Mick Rory: [speaking to the audience at the Romanti-Con Q&A] Nasgowa chased Cash for one reason. t's the same reason humans have gotten together since the dawn of time. It's why people like you come to conventions and dress up as your favorite characters. Why a man sits behind a desk typing, pouring out his heart. Why an author - a writer - replies to fans. It's connection. Human connection... I am Rebecca Silver.
- [the audience gasps]
- Mona Wu: You are Rebecca. I'd recognize that wisdom anywhere.
- Sara Lance: Look, Z. Sometimes for the good of the relationship, you have to put yourself outside of your comfort zone. For instance, I am going to read five hundred pages of some trashy novel by tonight for Ava. And look, with Neron gone, now's the time for us to get our personal lives into order. I will help you.
- Zari Tomaz: Please don't.
- Sara Lance: Relationship. Expert.
- Zari Tomaz: [nervous] You know how I... never let anyone know what I'm... really feeling?
- Nate Heywood: [equally nervous] It's kinda your thing.
- Zari Tomaz: [she kisses Nate] That's... how I feel, Nate.
- Nate Heywood: I feel the same.
- [They kiss again]
- Sara Lance: [leading a growling mummy into the Time Bureau] Yeah, that's what they all say.
- Ava Sharpe: Oh, hey, ladies. Is he any trouble?
- Sara Lance: Slam dunk. Honestly, with Neron gone, catching fugitives has never been easier. I thought it was gonna take all week.
- Nate Heywood: Whoa, smells like somebody hasn't showered since birds were letters. That's a hieroglyphics joke.
- Sara Lance: Z, how's it going?
- Zari Tomaz: It's going super awesome.
- Sara Lance: How are you and Nate?
- Nate Heywood: [chasing after and catching the mummy] Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Good.
- Zari Tomaz: Ah, Nate Dog? It's, uh, it's going totally great, in a super platonic way.
- Sara Lance: Then why are you guys being so weird?
- Zari Tomaz: It was that awkward, huh?
- Sara Lance: Even the mummy thought it was awkward.
- Sara Lance: Look, I mean, you like him, right?
- Zari Tomaz: Yeah, I think so, but I don't know what the next step would be.
- Sara Lance: Oh, that's easy. You just jump his bones.
- Zari Tomaz: What if I do that and it screws up our friendship?
- Sara Lance: [preparing to read Ava's book club book] Okay, page one.
- [getting a magic-o-meter alert]
- Sara Lance: Will have to wait.
- Ava Sharpe: All right, people, we've got a hit. New York City, 1933, the Adventurers' Society.
- Nate Heywood: Shut the front door.
- Zari Tomaz: What's the Adventurers' Society?
- Nate Heywood: It's a club for archaeologists and explorers. It's basically the coolest place in history. Guys, this is gonna be awesome.
- Sara Lance: Nate, you're running point on this one. With Zari.
- Nate Heywood, Zari Tomaz: For real?
- Nate Heywood: Um...
- Ava Sharpe: [turning around to talk privately] Sara, we did not discuss this.
- Sara Lance: Look, relax, it's just a cleanup job. They'll do fine.
- Ava Sharpe: [turning back] Okay, find the fugitive, bring him in, preferably in one piece. Now scram.
- Ava Sharpe: You're willing to risk an entire mission to play matchmaker?
- Sara Lance: I sure am.
- Ava Sharpe: Honestly, I'm getting a "just friends" vibe.
- Sara Lance: I bet you twenty bucks they hook up on the mission.
- Ava Sharpe: I will take that.
- Zari Tomaz: I can't believe everyone else bailed on the mission.
- Nate Heywood: More Adventurers' Society for us.
- Sara Lance: [sitting down to read Ava's book again] Okay, page one.
- [putting it down]
- Sara Lance: Is this on audiobook?
- Nate Heywood: Trip wires. This is gonna require one of us to squeeze through these trip wires, maneuvering our bodies in unexpected ways.
- Zari Tomaz: Are you asking me to do that?
- Nate Heywood: No, I'm asking you to hold my coat.
- Ava Sharpe: Oh, there you are. I was beginning to think you weren't gonna make it.
- Sara Lance: This is an interesting choice of venue.
- Mona Wu: We can't have book club without Nora. It takes all three of us for a book club quorum.
- Sara Lance: Very sweet.
- Ava Sharpe: You wanna keep doing book club? Babe, we don't have to. We can just forget it.
- Sara Lance: I thought it would be nice for us to be able to do something of yours.
- Ava Sharpe: Aw. That's so sweet, thank you. I didn't read the book.
- Sara Lance: What?
- Ava Sharpe: Sorry.
- Sara Lance: Seriously?
- Ava Sharpe: Honestly, I-I ususally just drink rosé and let Mona go on and on and use it as a mini-vacay for my brain.
- Gary Green: Why did you just stab yourself?
- Ray Palmer: I didn't.
- Gary Green: [gasping in realization] You're possessed.
- Ray Palmer: Yes!
- Zari Tomaz: Hi, Sara, uh, Nate and Zari here. Uh, first of all, well played.
- Nate Heywood: Yeah, setting up this whole adventure for us to go on a date was way over the top. But in the same breath, very sweet. And if I were to give a note, the Nazis were just, like, a tad too much.
- Sara Lance: What are... what are you talking about?
- Nate Heywood: Are they in the same theater troupe as Ava's parents?
- Sara Lance: What?
- Zari Tomaz: Sara, drop the act. Nazis killing us with throwing daggers? Come on.
- Zari Tomaz: We are crushing this mission, by the way. No classic Legends mishaps, and only one historically insignificant nobody received blunt-force trauma to the head.
- John Constantine: By the power above and below, I call on you, Nora Darhk, to return to this plane and rise reborn.
- [blowing magic dust into the air]
- John Constantine: Come on, love. Come back to me. Come on, love.
- Nora Darhk: [gasping as she wakes up] Get Neron.
- John Constantine: No, no, no, it's all right, love, it's all right. He's gone. You did it.
- Nora Darhk: N... no.
- John Constantine: He's gone.
- Nora Darhk: He has Ray.
- Ava Sharpe: Look, I know you've been through a lot, but I need your help.
- Nora Darhk: My help? Why?
- Ava Sharpe: Because no matter how many agents I send after Neron, none of them can do what you do, none of them have the powers you have, Nora. And I trust you. Nora Darhk, I am asking you to face another demon, but this time I am asking you to face it...
- [offering a lapel pin]
- Ava Sharpe: ...as a member of the Time Bureau.
- Nora Darhk: Let's do this.
- Mona Wu: Sara, hey! We got you a collectible Romanti-Con tote bag.
- Mick Rory: [seeing her look] Who died?
- Charlie: Yeah, what's going on?
- Sara Lance: I have some bad news.
- Mona Wu: Oh, my god, this can't be real. I have to go now.
- Sara Lance: What? You just said that book club requires all three of you.
- Mona Wu: It's Rebecca Silver. She's revealing her identity at Romanti-Con tonight.
- Ava Sharpe: Rebecca Silver?
- Mona Wu: The sex-positive novelist reinventing feminism.
- Ava Sharpe: Yeah, we know who she is.
- Sara Lance: Make sure you take lots of pictures.
- Zari Tomaz: I know these costumes are totally ridiculous.
- Nate Heywood: You-you... you look absolutely, um... yeah, ridiculous.
- Zari Tomaz: Uh, apparently it's all part of a cover story Sara gave me. I'm someone named Marion Ravenwood.
- Nate Heywood: Wait. Wait a second.
- [taking out his wallet]
- Nate Heywood: Huh. Well, it says here I am Dr. Henry Jones, Jr. Professor of archaeology, expert in the occult, and how does one say this? Obtainer of rare antiquities. It's Indiana Jones. Yeah.
- Zari Tomaz: Sara set us up.
- Nate Heywood: What's that?
- Zari Tomaz: Adventurers' Society, everyone else unavailable for the mission, dressing up like your favorite movie; it's all a setup to send us on the perfect date. I-I totally get if you wanna go back to the ship.
- Nate Heywood: Or we can see where this mission takes us.
- Zari Tomaz: So, you guys heard we're headed to the '30s?
- Charlie: No.
- Zari Tomaz: Well, you are. Sara put Nate and me in charge.
- Charlie: Oh, are you and Nate finally gonna...
- Mick Rory: Boom-boom.
- Zari Tomaz: Stop, stop. Okay. Guess what? You're on the Waverider, so you're going.
- Charlie: Jumpship's got a full tank, though, yeah?
- Mick Rory: Mm.
- Zari Tomaz: Do you have somewhere to be?
- Charlie: Oh, best you don't pry, love. Just like I'm not asking about that naughty little number Sara left behind for you to wear. Check your closet.
- Zari Tomaz: Rory, do you wanna maybe...
- Mick Rory: [following Charlie out] Plans.
- Ray Palmer: You can't help me. I need Constantine.
- Gary Green: Well, I may not be a master of the Dark Arts, but I am an intern of the Dark Arts.
- Ray Palmer: [surprised] You're interning for Constantine?
- Gary Green: Yeah. He's letting me study his spell books if I water his plants while he searches for a cure for Nora. Well, besides, what other options do you have? Come on. Tell the Gar-bear what ails ya.
- Ray Palmer: [nervous] I don't, I don't know how to explain it, but it... feels like... like there's something inside of me.
- Gary Green: Oh, yeah, yeah, there's a beautiful singer inside of me, but no one's ever gonna meet her.
