Recap

At Belle Reve Prison, Floyd Lawton, aka Deadshot, is taken to the gas chamber for execution. However, a government agent is waiting for them: Colonel Rick Flagg. He has the proper papers to authorize Deadshot's release. Flagg takes him away in a car, and then explains that his last meal was laced with explosive nanites. If Deadshot tries to escape, they'll be detonated. Deadshot wonders what he wants, and Flagg says he'll be doing something patriotic, and he needs Deadshot to break into Justice League headquarters...

Episode Quotes
Priest: There's still time, Mr. Lawton. Are you sure you don't want me to pray for you?
Deadshot: I'm sure. But if it comforts you, padre, by all means.

Deadshot: So what do I call you?
Rick Flagg: The name's Flagg - Colonel Flagg.
Deadshot: Colonel... Flagg? You're kidding, right?

Rick Flagg: Before you do something stupid, tell me--how did you enjoy your last meal?
Deadshot: Not bad. The asparagus was a little overcooked, but the lobster was perfect.
Rick Flagg: It was laced with explosive nanites.
Deadshot: Excuse me?
Rick Flagg: That's right. Any escape attempt and, well, you're going to look kind of funny trying to run away with no head.

Deadshot: This must be some nasty business.
Rick Flagg: A little B&E, a little grand larceny. No big deal.

Deadshot: What's the target?
Rick Flagg: Justice League headquarters.
Deadshot: Always did want to die for my country.

Rick Flagg: And Betty Sans Sourci. Current alias--"Plastique." Explosives expert.
Deadshot: Umm, I know. I've seen the pictures.
Plastique: And that's all you're going to see, killer.

Captain Boomerang: Ah, so we'll make our way there, pretty as you please, then maybe a picnic lunch and the Justice League will give us a ride home. We may as well be storming Heaven's Gate itself.
Clock King: Unlike Heaven, this tower has a duty schedule. One I've studied thoroughly. I've scheduled your visit for when they're at their weakest.
Captain Boomerang: Define "weakest," please.

Rick Flagg: Last-minute change in the duty roster, Superman's got the drop on you. What do you do?
Plastique: Before or after I change my shorts?

Technician: Why was he wearing Booster Gold's pants? So Jimmy says, "Because he left his long underwear at the cleaners." Even Big Blue laughed at that one.

Deadshot: I thought he was going to wet himself when you mentioned the Martian. He couldn't let us through fast enough.
Plastique: That was nothing. I almost lost it when this bonehead set off the metal detector.
Captain Boomerang: Seventy-five cents is seventy-five cents. I'm supposed to throw away money?
Rick Flagg: Shut your mouths and get your mind on the job.

(to Flagg)
Deadshot: And you? Going in unarmed?
Captain Boomerang: This one don't need no weapons.

Plastique: You are a very bad boy.
Deadshot: Tell me you didn't love it.

Rick Flagg: We wait for the others. They have three minutes.
Captain Boomerang: Are you out of your blinkin' head? We got to go! (Flagg glares ominously) Did I say "leave"? Because I meant "wait."

Vigilante: I reckon you boys have a good explanation for what you're doing on A Deck?
Shining Knight: 'Tis more likely that these varlets are the source of our woes.
Rick Flagg: Can't slip anything past you.

(confronting the villains)
J'onn: Ask yourselves-–is being in here with me what you truly desire?

Deadshot: Most fun I've had since my last root canal.

J'onn: Don't you understand? We can't trust him.
Green Lantern: J'onn...we can't trust anyone now.
