Alex: Today, I risked my life for it. I jumped straight across without hesitating, without even thinking. And to be honest? That wasn't even the tallest building that I have jumped off of in the line of duty.
J'onn: You are someone who makes the hard choices, Alex. You go the extra mile.
Alex: Yeah, exactly. That's who I am. It's just baked into me. Jumping buildings, making enemies, that's all part of the job. But the irony here is, is that the thing that I had to do to save myself, is the very same thing that could have killed me. I mean one more inch and I would have died, and then, where would she be?
