* **Candice Yacoub:** [boom tube opening, footsteps: 2 instances, shared laughter: 2 instances] I've done my research, he says. Cute kid. [boom tube closing]
* **Joseph Kane:** Yeah. He takes after his brother.
* **Candice Yacoub:** [chuckle] Yes, I can see that... Though, he does it much better.
* **Joseph Kane:** Hey! Watch it...
* **Candice Yacoub:** No. You watch it. You've got just seven years to convince me that you're the better Kane or I'm hitching myself to Sam... err... when I say hitch, I, uh, didn't mean marriage or-
* **Joseph Kane:** No. I know what you meant. I know how you are with the whole *marriage* thing.
* **Candice Yacoub:** Good. Good... So shall we head back to the island then? I think I can find a gift for you to unwrap as well. *Hint, hint.*
* **Joseph Kane:** When you put it that way... Just one minute, though. I need to grab some stuff from my room on the Sphere.
* **Candice Yacoub:** As long as it's not that armor...
* **Joseph Kane:** [sigh] No. Not the armor. even if I knew where you hid it, i wouldn't dream of grabbing it... [nervous chuckle] I'm serious! Just more deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrush, and maybe some clothes.
* **Candice Yacoub:** All of which I brought plenty of... and clothes? Seriously? How often are we fully dressed lately?
* **Joseph Kane:** Just come with me back to my room, will you?
* **Candice Yacoub:** *When you put it that way...* [giggle] Very well, Joey. Lead on.
* **Joseph Kane:** Speaking of the armor, it's weird... I can't even feel it here. My connection to it must already be fading... except I felt like I did feel it when we were in Gotham...
* **Candice Yacoub:** Joseph... Seriously, one more peep about the armor and I'm retracting your gift unwrapping.
* **Joseph Kane:** Sorry... No more talk about that... whatever it was we were talking about... Hey, isn't that Mags?
* **Margret Rivera:** [footsteps] Hmmm... Why is this door red? [hand rubbing hand] This door should be white. Three white, one red, four white, two red, repeat... Why is this red? Hmmmm! Hmmm...
* **Joseph Kane:** Something the-
* **Candice Yacoub:** I got this, Joey... [footsteps] Hey, sister. What's the matter?
* **Margret Rivera:** Hmm... Hello, sis. Uh... This place is confusing me. there seems to be a pattern but then there is not. there are doors but no windows... and only doors on this side of the hall. Hmmm... Confusing.
* **Candice Yacoub:** I know. This place is not as inviting as Themyscira and much more complex than our embassy. I understand, dearest, I do.
* **Margret Rivera:** Can I go back? To Themyscira with you? Hmmm... Please? Just until they need me... and then I'll come back.
* **Candice Yacoub:** You know that tower on the north of the island?
* **Margret Rivera:** Uh-huh. Hmm... I do not like it. It gives me mean headaches.
* **Candice Yacoub:** Yeah, I know, dearest, I know. Well, that is where we are staying. That is where we need to be to get Joseph feeling better.
* **Margret Rivera:** Hmmm... No, no... That's the bad witch's tower. Circe! That is where she lived. That place is bad. Not good.
* **Candice Yacoub:** I am quite skilled in turning bad magic into good magic, remember? [chuckle] It'll be okay, Mags. i promise.
* **Margret Rivera:** Joseph should not be on the island. Hippolyta would be upset... Hmmm... So would Andraste. Very upset... Hmmm... Uh-hmm.
* **Candice Yacoub:** I know. That's why it's a secret . Can you keep a secret for me?
* **Margret Rivera:** Yes. I am good at that. Many thoughts enter my head... Not my own. I do not tell those secrets. People need privacy.
* **Candice Yacoub:** Exactly. I knew I could count on you. Joseph needs his privacy, too, if he's to get better. [kiss on forehead] Can we help you find where' you're going?
* **Margret Rivera:** No. Hmm.... I know the way. [footsteps] Joseph?
* **Joseph Kane:** Yeah?
* **Margret Rivera:** Who is that person inside? Hmmm... The one-eyed passenger in your mind.
* **Joseph Kane:** Wait, what?! What did you say, Mags? Slade?! Slade is in my mind?
* **Margret Rivera:** [startled gasp, hiss, hand rubbing hand] Hmmmm... That was bad news... Hmmm... I am sorry... I am so sorry...
