Maggie and Alex found themselves in the DEO, telling J'onn about Mxyzptlk.
"You've been visited by a Fifth-Dimensional being," J'onn told them. "They possess the ability to warp our reality to their own whims. Abilities, that would appear, to all intents and purposes, to be magic."
"Like a genie, or leprechauns?" Winn asked.
"Exactly."
Mon-El piped up, "On Daxam, we have zero tolerance policy for those creatures. They can party, alright, but they're very dangerous."
"Bet you enjoyed partying with them, though. From what Alex told me, she's a looker, that Maxitylickety lady," Kara replied to Mon-El. "I'm actually very curious to meet her. Maybe she's not that bad, you know? Maybe she just came on too strong. That, and the trespassing was kind of creepy."
"Her name is Mxyzptlk. But I think we should just stop saying the name, in case saying it over and over would summon her or something." Alex had a point and if anybody wanted to see Mxyzptlk, it wasn't Maggie.
If she kept her cool long enough to get to the DEO, she clearly needed to make more of an effort to hide the fact that she's beyond irked about what happened the night before. She was discussing something with Winn and if they intended the conversation to be in hushed tones, it was not working.
"So how do we ban her for eternity? Can we just pour some water on her or have her look at herself in the mirror and have her go crazy and just die on the spot with hate? Clearly someone with that big of an ego would just HATE having a duplicate. Even if it's just a reflection."
Winn just stared at Maggie, trying to decide whether or not he should respond. "I think it's cute," he finally said. J'onn cocked his head as if to say that he agrees with what Winn said but instead of elaborating on what was cute, J'onn just gave Winn instructions to find anything on the archives about Fifth-Dimensional beings and how they could possibly get rid of her.
"Close Encounters with the Fifth Kind. You got it."
Kara just laughed and told everyone that she and Mon-El have to continue their training but before she left, she looked pointedly at Alex and gestured her head towards Maggie. "Somebody's getting a teeny-tiny bit jealous," Kara whispered to Alex as she passed her by.
"Hey, uh, Maggie? Can we talk? In private."
"Sure, Danvers. I mean, that's what we were doing last night before we got so rudely interrupte-" Alex cupped Maggie's face and the gesture silenced the detective. Sighing, she grabbed Alex's hands, "I'm sorry. It's just that, I finally got over my fears and decided to take a leap then this, this CREATURE just popped up out of nowhere and robbed me of my moment. A very special moment, that I wanted to have with you."
"Maggie, there's nothing I want more than to get back to that. We have to get rid of *her* first. The sooner we get rid of her, the sooner we can get back to where we left off. Okay?"
Maggie just hugged her in response, finally smiling since the whole Moxypoxy thing happened. "It's just so infuriating, you know? I mean, of all the people in all the galaxies, in all dimensions, that little bit-imp- had to pick you. Can't say i blame her but still, she annoys me. And you heard Mon-El, he says she's dangerous."
"Since when do you listen to what he says? Don't tell me he's starting to grow on you," Alex teased.
"I'm not particularly fond of him, but if you're safety is on the line, I have to get as many information as I can to get rid of the danger."
Alex's heart skipped a beat upon hearing those words, but this is not the time for that. They have to find a way to get rid of Mxy.
"Come on, let's grab some lunch. I'm sure you're starving after burning up all of your carbs kicking and punching in the gym," Alex said.
"Danvers, you know me well."
Walking hand in hand, Maggie suddenly asks Alex, "Hey, what did Winn mean when he said 'I think it's cute.' What's cute? He can't possibly mean your rude visitor last night, can he? I mean, he's never seen her. Unless of course, you also described her to Winn as 'a looker' as Kara put it..."
Alex just shook her head and smiled, "Come on, Maggie. Let's get some food in you."
