Guess whos back
Peter was roaming the halls of the DEO when he came across Myr'nn who seems to be either confused or lost.
"Myr'nn, sir, is everything okay?" Peter asks getting his attention.
"I would like to find the b'rahh alcom." Myr'nn explains to him.
"The...oh, bathroom." Peter translates.
"To relieve myself." Myr'nn agrees.
"Wait, you've been here for two weeks and you don't...forget it. I don't need to know the bathroom habits of Martian's. Okay, it's down the hall, around the corner and your third door to your left." Peter tells him and looks around. "We should really put up a few signs."
"May I go?" Myr'nn asks.
"Yeah, of course. You're not a prisoner here, Myr'nn, go whenever you need." Peter tells him.
"Thank you." Myr'nn says and runs off to find it.
Peter watches as he leaves and is confused. "That was weird. Even by my standards."

Peter walks to find J'onn.
"Hey, Bossman, listen, your dad just asked permission to use the bathroom. Is that...normal?" Peter asks him.
"Well, he's still getting used to things around here." J'onn explains.
"Yeah, but it was the way he said it and how relieved he was. I know he was a prisoner on Mars, I think that you should think about letting him out a bit more. Like on karaoke night." Peter explains when Winn and Kara comes in.
"I got your message." Kara tells Winn.
"Yes. Of course." Winn says and calls them over. "So, I'm not really quite sure what to make of it, but I thought you guys should see it." He explains and shows something that happened this morning. "So, the city sent out an exploratory team to investigate the effects of the submarine attack, and you can see that they found something in the bedrock, so they went to check it out."
The footage shows something glowing blue in the ocean and the submarine gets attacked.
"It got attacked." J'onn sees.
"Luckily, their emergency systems kicked in and they made it to the surface, but they could have easily been taken out." Winn informs them.
"What else do you know?" Peter asks.
"Well, the USGS geotgermal scans, we can pull up the coordinates." Winn says and they look to see an unknown ship.
"This is strange, the rock layers are saying it's been there for 12,000 years, and the metal it's made out of doesn't exist." Peter tells them.
-
They go out in their suits to find where the ship is and stop in the middle of the street.
"The ship should be right under here." Winn tells them.
"Okay. Stand back, everyone stand back. I saw Clark do this once." Kara says and was about to do his spin technique when J'onn stops her.
"There's a way of doing this without destroying public property." J'onn says and they go around the corner where J'onn grabs ahold of them and then transports them through the ground and they land inside the ship.
"That was terrible!" Winn states.
"That felt weird." Peter says and they start roaming the halls of the ship and see cryosleep pods. "There are people in these."
Kara looks and sees one of them is open.
"Okay, that's not creepy. Not at all." Winn says as they look and Peter senses someone and turns in time to activate his shield to save himself from getting basted.
"Don't shoot." Kara tells him as they all get ready to shoot.
The man says something they don't understand when Peter does a quick facial search and sees it's...
"Mon-El?"
The man comes forward and they see his face in the light.
"Peter? Kara?" Mon-El asks as Kara walks up to him and is happy to see he's alive and they stand down.
-
They bring him back to the DEO to be looked over and they're confused to how he's alive.
"How are you breathing?" Alex asks and looks to the scientists. "How is he breathing?"
"We don't know." Peter confesses.
"According to the samples we took, the air should still be toxic to Daxamites." Winn says.
"Did someone cure you?" Kara asks.
"And what was that language you were speaking?" Winn wonders.
"Saturnian." Mon-El tells him.
"You mean there's life on Saturn now?" Peter asks.
"Why did you fire on the submersible?" J'onn asks.
"I didn't. I heard the ship's defense system activate though. Is everyone okay?" Mon-El asks.
"Yeah, they got out of there in time." Kara promises.
"I've never seen anything like your ship before." J'onn says.
"It's...alien." Mon-El tells them.
"Who are the other people with you?" Peter asks him.
"Just passengers." Mon-El explains.
"They dangerous?" Alex asks.
"No, they're...they're like me." Mon-El replies.
"Why did you wake up and nobody else?" Winn asks.
"I'm sorry, guys, I was in hypersleep and it's all...hazy right now." Mon-El tells them.
"Yeah, you should get some rest, man." Peter agrees and they all leave.
Peter and Kara walk them out and watch him through the window as he sleeps.
"Must be nice to have him back." Peter tells Kara, happy for her.
"Yeah, I honestly thought I'd be overjoyed to see him again. But I'm just...happy he's okay." Kara admits, not as overjoyed as she thought she would be to see him again. "I guess leaning on you helped burden the pain."
"It's not a burden if we shoulder it together." Peter says and Kara laughs and leans her head on his shoulder.
"I'm glad to have you with me, Pete." Kara tells him.
Peter smiles and rubs her shoulder as he puts his arm around her.
"I'm not sure about the beard though." Peter admits.
"Eh, I kinda like it." Kara admits.
"I'm happy for you that you have him back." Peter tells her.
"Yeah, but...I don't know. I feel different from when he was around. When I was around him, I couldn't be more happy. But now, it feels like I'm saying hello to a childhood friend that you never really knew that well. I don't know what's different." Kara confessed to him.
"I guess that means that you were able to move on." Peter guesses.
-
Later, J'onn took his father out to the city as everyone is keeping an eye on the ship.
Peter was on his way to the server room when his senses go off and it's coming from the alien artifact room. He goes and sees it's Mon-El that he didn't even know woke up.
"Hey, Small Fry, what are you-" Peter was asking when he dodges an attack from Mon-El and he returns the punch, knocking him out, "doing here." He finishes.
They bring him to a containment cell where Kara is waiting for answers.
"Were you confused from the hypersleep? Any kind out of the med bay, broke into a secure storage room?" Kara asks him.
"It's complicated." Mon-El tells her, not knowing what he can say. "I'm sorry."
Kara walks out, nothing else to say and nothing to be done. Peter watches as she leaves the room and decides to give it a shot himself.
"Okay, let's get this out of the way, you look like you're trying to be a brunette version of Thor." Peter finally tells him, holding onto that quip for a while.
"How are you?" Mon-El asks him.
"I've been doing better these last few months. So has Skirt." Peter states as he leans on the window. "You leaving hurt her, we kinda leaned on each other going through broken hearts. I thought I'd give it a shot to see if you just wanna talk. Nothing in particular, but anything about why you tried to lefthook me would help. I know you're hiding something, I'm not saying it's bad, but it's something. I mean, the alien ship...dead give away."
"There's so much you don't know or understand, things are different." Mon-El tells him.
"Different how?" Peter asks.
"It's just different! Okay?" Mon-El says and gets into his face from the opposite side of the glass. "There's a lot to explain, I acknowledge that. And I'm sorry, but I need you as a friend. I need you to believe me. And your help to get back to the ship." Peter starts walking away, not believing him. "People will get hurt if I don't. Kara will get hurt." With those words, Peter stops and looks back to the man and wonders what kind of trouble he's in.
Kara later comes back in and looks to see that they're both gone.
-
Mon-El attaches the artifact he was trying to get to the ships computer.
"Okay, the stasis fluid levels are okay, hows the power?" Mon-El asks Peter who's looking at the computers.
"Everything seems good...I spoke too soon." Peter was saying when his senses go off and he turns to see Kara. "Hey, Skirt."
"Peter, you okay?" Kara asks him.
"Can't complain." Peter replies, jokingly.
"He's...he's just helping me." Mon-El tells her.
"You kidnapped him." Kara states.
"What? Come on, Skirt, I'm never kidnapped unless I want to be." Peter reminds her.
"Why'd you have to come down here anyway?" Mon-El asks referring to them finding him the first time.
"If we hadn't, you would have died." Kara tells him.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not your problem anymore." Mon-El replies to her as he's at the computers.
"How could you have changed this much in seven months?" Kara asks him.
"It's been seven years!" Mon-El tells the two who are shocked to hear that. "It's been seven months for you, but it's been seven years for me since the day I was placed in that pod. When I left Earth, I went through some kind of wormhole. Kor-El call's it a disruption. And it took me to the future. And I've been living on Earth, in the 31st century, for several years."
"Explains your allergy to lead." Peter says.
"L-Corp develops a cure about 400 years from now." Mon-El explains when the power to the chambers are failing.
"Problem." Peter says when one of the people in the pods starts drowning and he tries breaking the person out.
"It's white dwarf glass, I can't..." Mon-El was saying when Peter send a double blast collision from his repulses at it, shattering the glass and Mon-El catches the woman.
"Imra? Imra?" Mon-El sky's and searched for a pulse. "She's okay, she's breathing."
Peter and Kara watch the interaction and they're both seriously confused.
"Who is she?" Peter asks.
-
They bring Imra to the DEO to give her the same checkup as they did for Mon-El.
"She's stable for now." Alex tells them.
"We're still analyzing her genetic makeup so we can properly treat her. Is there anything you can tell us to help?" Winn asks Mon-El.
"She's from Titan. Without power to the ship, she may have been off life support longer than we think." Mon-El says and Peter watches his facial expressions and recognizes them anywhere. Especially since he's lived through the same expression.
"Who is she to you?" Peter asks.
"Her name is Imra." Was all Mon-El says. "Will, let me know if her condition changes." He asks before leaving.
"He cares about her." Peter tells Kara. "I used to have the same look that he has now when Gwen was in danger, sick, or hurt."
"Guessing girlfriend?" Kara asks him.
"You should go talk to him." Peter encourages her and she leaves to talk to Mon-El.
Despite the tries Peter has been to hide the emotions he's been feeling towards Kara and the karaoke night that Alex had them do didn't help them.
But he has a feeling with Mon-El back, things are going to be more complicated.
And as it turns out Imra is Mon-El's wife, so now a bit more complicated.
