- Arsenal: [Being chased by the Reach] Arsenal to Team. Come in. Code Red, Code Red. Arsenal to Watchtower. Come in, Justice League. Arsenal to anyone, come in!
- Virgil Hawkins: Guys, I saw this freak take down all of these heroes back on the Reach ship.
- Black Beetle: Please, don't let that stop you from attacking. I could use the exercise.
- Eduardo 'Ed' Dorado Jr.: [Tye attacks, Beetle swats him down] Please tell me he did not just take out our big gun in three seconds flat.
- Virgil Hawkins: Skatter!
- [They try to run, Virgil and Asami are knocked down]
- Black Beetle: So much for exercise.
- Reach Ambassador: So you see, G. Gordon. the Reach is all about intergalactic brotherhood.
- G. Gordon Godfrey: A lovely sentiment. So, please explain to the good folks at home how it squares with the lies you told us, and the fleet of *warships* you hid beneath our oceans!
- Eduardo 'Ed' Dorado Jr.: Gracias amigo. Umm, who are you?
- Arsenal: The guy who'll save your butts if you listen carefully
- Arsenal: Don't you get it? He didn't care if you rescued the Team! He was using you... as a distraction to lure Black Beetle away from the crystal key so one of his other pawns could steal it!
- Lex Luthor: Mmm, Deathstroke's more of a bishop actually.
- Lex Luthor: I wonder if The Reach can appreciate the irony of their own creations working against them.
- Eduardo 'Ed' Dorado Jr.: Hey, they did *not* create us.
- Virgil Hawkins: Dude, did we know your, uh, "long shadow" was laser-proof?
- Tye Longshadow: Ugh, more like laser-resistant. Those beams stung.
- Eduardo 'Ed' Dorado Jr.: We're throwing everything we've got at this desperado, and barely holding our own. Shouldn't we be freeing some of the good guys?
- Arsenal: No.
- [Releases Mongul]
- Eduardo 'Ed' Dorado Jr.: Aah, amigo, you don't seem clear on who we're here to rescue.
- Arsenal: Trust me, I'm clear.
- Black Beetle: [Notices Mongul is free] Mongul! This is all your fault!
- Mongul: Reach!
- [Attacks Beetle]
