[Conner holds up his dog tags and waves them around, not looking thrilled at all.] So let me get this straight. I'm supposed to just go to this MAC apartment place and stay there for who knows how long? Sorry, but not happening. I've got someone to get back to and if I'm gone and Krypto's gone, then she's all on her own and I'm not going to let that happen again. My whole entire home town looks like it was abducted because it's not there anymore. I'm going to go along with this whole alternate universe thing for now and chalk it up to that, but I'm warning whoever, if it was taken somehow and you had something to do with it, if any of my friends are hurt, if there's so much as a scratch on her? You're gonna regret it, big time.

[He drops the dog tags down on the ground and punches a fist into his palm.] So whoever is responsible for this, you'd better send me back right now before I start breaking things. Or I'll just make my own way back.

Nice duds. What, you get too much crap for that stupid outfit you used to run around in that you just gave up?

I just decided to go with a new look.

So just a t-shirt and some pants counts as a look now?

Good thing I never paid attention to trendy crap.

[It's got the S-symbol on it, it totally counts.]

I can see that. [Yes, yes, he is subtly insulting your costume.]

[Yes, Floyd has little sense of style.]

Cute.

What was the deal with you and Knockout, anyway?

We've exchanged punches a few times.

No way. She was ridiculous about trying to get into your pants or whatever, and that's back when you looked like you were 16 or somethin', which I thought was weird.

Hell, maybe she was, too. Who knows what goes on with chicks from Apokolips. Don't get me started on Lashina.

We didn't exactly get along. [Well most of the time.] And I had a girlfriend. That I actually liked.

'Had', huh? What, she dump you for lookin' like a dweeb?

[He gets a little angry at that.] She died because some scum like you killed her.

Yeah?

Who's that?

Someone you don't deserve to know the name of.

I don't care about the girl. Just curious who the scum is.

[... Oh.]

Amanda Spence. [Hopefully she's still floating in space.]

Never heard of her. So she ain't scum like me.

She is to me. [Like he cares about what you think.]

[And he sure don't care if you care.]

There's a difference in scum.

So now you just have girlfriends you don't like, huh?

Why would I have a girlfriend I didn't like?

You said the girl who died was a girlfriend you actually liked.

Made it sound like usually you're hate-bangin' people.

[He really wants to punch your face in right now.]

Creep.

That's none of your business.

[He has that effect on people.]

Of course it ain't. But you brought it up.

Whatever, man.

[Turns off the video before he ends up crushing the device from being not happy at the moment. Let's not break things you just got, okay, Conner?]
