"I sure picked the wrong time to get rid of all my kryptonite." J'onn states after what just occurred with the new guy who's escaped.
"You doing okay, Skirt?" Peter asks Kara.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Just a little shaken." Kara replies to him. "Where is he?"
"He disappeared into the city." Alex tells her.
"Which is just what we don't need. A rouge Kryptonian on the loose just as the President is due for a visit." J'onn says, a bit annoyed.
"Wait, the President is coming here?" Kara asks.
"Yeah, wants to tour the DEO while in National City signing the Alien Amnesty Act." Peter tells her.
"It's amazing, an executive order allowing aliens on earth to come out of the shadows and live as full citizens. She's making history." Kara comments on it.
"Not in my book, I think she's making a big mistake." J'onn comments back.
"How can you of all people say that?" Kara asks.
"Because it's been my hard experience that humans and aliens don't mix." J'onn informs her.
"What about the three of us?" Kara asks again.
"What about us?" Peter asks her. "We look human, we blend in. Hell, you heard the message my father left. They put a mental blockade in my head in case anyone wanted to control me." He reminds her.
"Yeah, and a lot of aliens can't just blend in." J'onn adds on. "And people in this world don't have much tolerance for others who look different. I say that as an alien and as someone who's worn the face of a black man for 15 years."
"J'onn's right. I can count the number of good aliens I know on one hand with a finger to spare." Alex says.
"I'm just glad the President doesn't see ways like you guys do." Kara says.
"Then you can tell her that when we go to meet her." Peter tells her and she freezes.
"What?" Kara asks.
"She expects National City's two highest-profile heroes to greet her on the tarmac." Alex explains to her.
"I'm meeting the President?" Kara asks excitedly.
"Unless you're too nervous?" Alex offers.
"Me? I'm not...no, I'm not nervous. Yeah, I'm nervous. It's the President!" Kara exclaims.
"You two will be representing this entire organization. I expect you'll be professional." J'onn tells them.
"When aren't I?" Peter asks.
"Yes. Of course." Kara agrees.
"And for the record, she's the one who's lucky to meet the two of you." J'onn informs them.
"Wow, J'onn, an actual nice compliment." Peter says impressed by him.
"Should I get a blow out?" Kara asks them.
"Oh, dear god." J'onn says as he leaves.
-
The next day, Kara and Peter fly over to the airport and meet up at the tarmac as everybody cheers as the President exits the plane and Peter's senses go off when a fire is shot and hits one of the presidents guards.
"Protect the President!" Peter tells Kara as he flies into the air to find out who's shooting when he suddenly gets hit and thrown into a tower.
Kara was able to keep her safe, but whoever was attacking seems to have made their escape.
Later the DEO and police come in to find out what exactly went down.
"So, the burn pattern is consistent with the Kryptonian heat-vision signature. Which I am obviously gonna rule out Supergirl and Superman, and that would only leave the new Kryptonian." Gwen tells them looking over the data.
"Our escaped Kryptonian's been awake six hours and the first thing he does is try to kill the President?" Kara asks.
"Winn's working on tracking him." Alex assures them.
"Are we sure this is our guy?" Peter asks them. "I mean, how does he even know how to control these powers let alone use them? I think this is someone else."
"Let's see what we can gather here and work on finding him." Alex offers and they agree to that.
-
"Welcome to the DEO, Madam President." J'onn greets her as she enters their base.
"I'm surprised, now that your true identity is known to the world, you don't like openly as your Martian self." The President tells Hank.
"I find looking human makes people feel more comfortable." J'onn explains.
"Hopefully, my Alien Amnesty Act will change that." She tells him as they walk to the science department. "For you and everyone else from beyond the stars that have made Earth their home. I know the DEO's mission is to hunt renegade aliens, but that mission is going to have to adapt. You disagree, Director?"
"I do, Madam President." J'onn admits. "There are aliens out there, killers who wouldn't understand the concept of the very rights you're offering them. Evil creatures who could take advantage of your good will."
"I imagine the very same thing was once said about you, J'onn J'onzz but someone gave you the benefit of the doubt. Isn't it time we paid that forward?" The President asks. "I think of no better time than the present to extend our hand in friendship."
"Even if that hand might get bitten off?" J'onn asks.
"One has to have hope."
"What if it's false hope?"
"It's hope, J'onn. How can it be false?" She asks him.
"Wow, you're seriously nice." Gwen comments.
"Madam President, our head of science, Gwen Stacy." J'onn introduces them.
"Oh, I don't know about that." Gwen answers nervously. "I mean, I just make everything, design everything, and make everything look cooler."
To that, the President leaves to have a talk with Gwen about everything she does and designs.
Kara had to leave to her first assignment as a reporter when Winn calls out.
"Hey, I found our missing Kryptonian." Winn tells them.
"Where is he?" Peter asks, ready to find him.
"Looks like an abandoned warehouse in the Arts District." He tells Peter who leaves while Winn explains how he did it and didn't notice he was gone.
-
Peter and Alex lead a team to apprehend him only to find the head of science for the NCPD, Maggie.
"Seems to be a lot of firepower for a fed." Maggie comments to them.
"Clear the building." Alex tells the group.
"Don't bother, your boy's gone." Maggie informs them.
"How'd you fish this place?" Alex asks.
"I'm a detective, Agent Danvers. I detect." Maggie reminds her. "I heard stories of black ops anti-alien strike team. Sounded like the boogeyman, But here you stand."
While she was talking, Peter finds the bracelet that Winn was tracking to find him.
"Gwen, Winn, we missed him." Peter informs the team and sees they're back at square one.
-
Alex and Peter returned to the DEO when Alex got a call from Maggie to show her where she gets her information on aliens, and it's from a alien bar as Kara is at the DEO struggling with her article.
"Gwen, can you scan the city for any pan orbital transmissions heading into space?" Alex asks Gwen as she returns.
"Child's play." Gwen replies and gets to work to find Not one, but several transmissions. "Several deep space signals. Loud and clear."
"Broadcasting from where?" Peter asks.
"The Mount Pride Observatory." Gwen replies.
"And that's where we will find our alien John Doe." Alex states.
"Where'd you find this out?" Peter asks her curious.
"Long story." Alex admits and doesn't want to get into it right now.
"He must be trying to contact Krypton. He doesn't know it was destroyed." Kara guesses.
"Actually...he's not calling Krypton." Gwen informs them as she goes over the information.
"Where's the signal heading to?" Peter asks, confused.
"Uh, Winn, can you pull up the DEO star charts?" Gwen asks the man and he does it.
"According to these very cool charts, he beamed a signal directly to a planet called...Daxam." Winn tells them and Kara starts freaking out and runs off.
"What, do we not like Daxam's?" Peter asks jokingly and chases after her.
-
At the observatory, Mon-El, the John Doe alien, was waiting for a response when Kara came crashing in and flies at the Daxam and he throws her to the ground when Peter comes flying in to see him kick Kara.
Peter then raised his repulsers ready to fire, and a few missiles from his shoulders and wrist ready to fire.
"I don't want to hurt anyone." Mon-El tells them.
"Sure you don't." Kara says while getting back up.
"Look, before this gets out of hand, let's all just talk." Peter tells them.
"There's no point in trying to talk to a Daxomite." Kara informs Peter.
"You know where I'm from?" Mon-El asks.
"Yep, and you should've stayed there." Kara states to Mon-El.
"He crash landed here, remember?" Peter reminds Kara. "Look, just come with us and we'll get this sorted out." He tells Mon-El who blindly agrees.
-
They return to the DEO where Mon-El is placed in a holding cell for the time being.
"So, our mystery alien is from Daxam?" J'onn asks them.
"I've never heard of Daxam." Winn tells them.
"It's a sister world of Krypton." J'onn explains. "Both capable of sustaining life, both orbiting the same sun."
"You've never mentioned it before." Alex tells Kara.
"Do the Hatfield's mention the McCoy's?" Kara asks her sister.
"I take it the planets didn't get along." Peter takes a wild guess.
"Hundreds of years ago, Krypton And Daxam fought a bloody war to a stalemate. Thousands of lives were lost on both sides because of a pointless war Daxam started." Kara informs him knowing he doesn't have much memory of Krypton for good reason.
"What were they fighting against?" Gwen asks.
"Krypton was a Democracy. A world of explorers, philosophers, scientists, even the royal family, the House of Ren, were all basically just leaders of all the fields." Kara tries explaining.
"That explains a lot about you." Gwen tells Peter who laughs and scoffs how science runs in his blood family and earth family.
"And Daxam was a monarchy. With kings and queens who ruled a population of hoodlums." Kara finishes explaining. "We has a saying on Krypton for Daxamites, May tex kolar Daxam."
"And that means..." Alex asks.
"Nothing I can repeat in English." Kara tells her.
"So if Daxamites are as bad as you just apparently said they were, then it's no wonder this guy is trying to kill the President, right?" Winn asks.
"But it still doesn't explain why." J'onn says and Kara offered to go down to talk to him.
"I'm still not convinced that it's him who's trying to kill the President." Peter tells them.
"Yeah, I kind of agree. Does he even know what a President even is?" Gwen wonders. "I mean, he tried sending a signal home and as a pass time, he tried to kill the head of state?"
"Watch out for any trouble during the signage of the Amnesty if you feel this way." J'onn tells Peter. "I know to trust you and your senses by now."
"This isn't my senses, it's my gut this time." Peter informs him. "Let's hope my gut is as right as my senses."
-
At the signing, Peter is watching from a building roof ready to swing or fly in at the first sign of danger and hopes ther isn't any trouble.
"Does it look okay from your position, Peter?" Gwen asks into his com link.
"I can see the entire celebration from here and it seems clear so far." Peter reports in.
"With our wayward Daxamite locked up, I don't think we'll have any problems." Kara tells him as the President gets ready for the signing.
"My fellow Americans. Over a century ago, this nation erected a monument in New York harbor. A Statue of Liberty. That statue looked down upon Ellis Island, where thousands of immigrants came to seek refuge, from a home country that didn't want them, that wouldn't have them. But America took them in. That is our story. The American people today, stand as one with history. No longer will our alien visitors be strangers, committed to the shadows, forced to the fringes of a hostile and unwelcoming world. They will be granted the full rights and privileges of American citizens. The Statue of Liberty will stand for aliens, too."
"Gotta say, I'm loving the speech." Peter admits as his senses warn him somethings about to happen and he quickly shoots out a web and swings down. Just in time to activate his new holo-shield on his wrist that protects his entire body, courtesy of Gwen Stacy who got the idea watching Star Wars. And used it to stop the flames from hitting the President.
"Madam President, you okay?" Peter asks her holding the shield out to cover him and her.
"Thank you." The President tells Peter as Kara sees the attacker.
She's a flame-redhead with fire coming off of her hands and from her eyes. Kara goes in for an attack only to get shot backwards by her heat vision.
Peter makes sure the President gets away safely before going in to help stop her and shoots a couple of webs at her and uses his shield to move forward and Gwen comes up with an idea.
"Peter, I'm changing your repulsers setting from heat to shoot ice. Make it count." Gwen informs him and he gets the idea.
Peter shoots her with his new repulsers and it causes Red Hot to use her powers too much and Peter freezes her hands and sheds a quick blast to her head to knock her unconscious.
-
Kara sees she made a mistake with Mon-El by just assuming he was trying to kill the President and lets him out of his cell to get to know him properly this time. But the bad news came when she had to explain when Krypton exploded, it took down Daxam with it.
Now with the signing of the Amnesty done, the President visits the DEO one last time before leaving.
"And a very personal thank you to both of you." The President tells Peter and Kara.
"It was a honor, Madam President." Peter tells her.
"It was nothing. And I still can't believe I got to see Air Force One." Kara tells her.
"If you think that's cool, you ought to see my other jet." She tells Kara.
"Madam President, I am still wary of your policy." J'onn tells her.
"It's not enough to defend the world, J'onn. You need to live in it too." President tells him while leaving.
"Could she be any cooler?" Kara asks.
"I don't think so." Peter admits.
As the President walks away, her eyes give for a yellowish glow revealing she's a alien while leaving.
-
J'onn goes to visit the bar Alex mentioned to him and found a alien named M'gann.
The last Daughter of Mars.
But in reality, she's a White Martian in disguise.
