Jeremy Jordan: Winn Schott

Quotes 

• J'onn J'onzz : Reign is becoming immune to Ms. Luthor's synthetic Kryptonite faster than we expected.

  Winn Schott : Oh.

  J'onn J'onzz : To be on the safe side, I've evacuated L-Corp, and I have a strike team standing by with sound guns, body boots, and red sun grenades.

  Winn Schott : Because that's worked approximately zero times before.

  J'onn J'onzz : Do I seem appropriately stoic and grave to you now, Mr. Schott?

  Winn Schott : Better crank that baby up to twelve.

• Winn Schott : I'm a jerk.

  Ruby Arias : Yeah.

  Winn Schott : I know what you're going through. I actually... I actually do. I-I had a very... complicated relationship with my dad. He actually tried to, um, to kill me, too, believe it or not. And, you know, for the longest time, dude, I was terrified that whatever made him what he was, like, that that was inside of me, too. You know, that... evil.

  Ruby Arias : I know what you mean. But you're not evil.

  Winn Schott : No. No, I'm not. Just a jerk. Hey, Supergirl's coming back. And I... I kinda need some help. Maybe you could... aid me in tracking Supergirl?

  [she half-smiles] 

  Winn Schott : [leading her out]  Oh, come on. I'll teach you how to be a jerk.

• J'onn J'onzz : Agent Schott, any word from Supergirl?

  Winn Schott : No, but we expected that. They're on the dark side, which means they're probably scraping off a nice chunk of space rock off a much larger piece of space rock any minute.

  J'onn J'onzz : I need to know the second they're on their way back.

  Winn Schott : Well, I got the radio dialed up to eleven. Like, I re-tasked six military satellites to scan all airspace around the meteorite, and then I've just been obsessively checking that scan for, like, the faintest blip. I will not miss them.

  J'onn J'onzz : Hmm.

  Winn Schott : And yet you seem, uh, more stoic and grave than usual, which, if we're being honest, is making me, like, a little bit queasy.

• Alex Danvers : Someone's trying to kill me.

  Winn Schott : Oh, things are not chill.

  J'onn J'onzz : You sure you were the target?

  Alex Danvers : A hundred percent. Guys, this is really bad. Okay? I can't have some psycho who's trying to murder me out there on the loose while I'm taking care of Ruby. I mean, she's been through so much. She's seen so much. And god forbid, what if she got hurt? And it's on my watch. I-I... I can't live with that.

• J'onn J'onzz : Who would want you dead?

  Winn Schott : Where do we start? Okay, well, there's Griggs, uh... the Hellgrammite, Hannibal. I mean...

  Alex Danvers : Look, the Hellgrammite and Griggs have been in containment. So that's a no.

  J'onn J'onzz : Hannibal, we deported after the Daxamite invasion.

  Winn Schott : Right.

  Alex Danvers : Okay, so let's just keep narrowing it down.

• Alex Danvers : Who else has tried to kill me before and failed?

  Winn Schott : What about good ol' Ricky, huh?

  [showing a picture of Rick Malverne] 

  Winn Schott : He definitely hates you.

  J'onn J'onzz : Oh, hated. I mind-wiped him, remember?

  Winn Schott : Oh.

  J'onn J'onzz : But we shouldn't discount people from your past, if this really is personal. It may be someone from before your time at the DEO. Somebody who may have threatened you before.

• Alex Danvers : Pull up Ron Collins.

  Winn Schott : Ronald Collins. Let's see. Age 56. Recently made parole after... six failed attempts. Wow. Uh, let's see. He was in for...

  Alex Danvers : First-degree murder. I should know. He was my first arrest.

  Winn Schott : I'm sorry, that would have... that would have made you seventeen when you arrested him.

  [seeing her look] 

  Winn Schott : Yeah, that... that tracks.

  Alex Danvers : He lived his whole life in Midvale, and then he moves to National City after he was released from prison?

  Winn Schott : Eh, it's a big city.

  J'onn J'onzz : And yet he moved to within six blocks of your apartment.

  Alex Danvers : Okay, I ruined his life. He's trying to ruin mine. That's him.

• Alex Danvers : Winn, about Ruby...

  Winn Schott : [getting what she's asking]  No! No, I can't. No, I do not babysit anymore.

  Alex Danvers : She's twelve, okay? She's not a baby. So, it's just... you know, your words. Chill, it'll be fine.

  J'onn J'onzz : It takes a village, Agent Schott.

• Ruby Arias : Have you heard anything from Supergirl yet?

  Winn Schott : No. That's why I'm still sitting here.

  Ruby Arias : Can you show me how this all works?

  Winn Schott : You know what, no offense, kid, I really... I don't... I don't need help.

• Ruby Arias : You seem stressed out.

  Winn Schott : Do I seem stressed? Do I? Really? Oh, well, you know, I have been staring at a stupid computer monitor for about 36 hours. I haven't slept. Haven't eaten anything. Haven't even had time to go get my damn pizza bagel out of the microwave. All I've done is monitor about ten million miles of outer space waiting for confirmation that Supergirl... Supergirl is on her way back to Earth with the Black Rock of Yuda Kal, so we can finally stop and defeat...

  Ruby Arias : My mom.

  Winn Schott : Well, um... Reign is technically not your mom.

  Ruby Arias : [hurt by his insensitivity]  You're right. Reign is a monster, and my mom has disappeared. I might never get her back again, or even see her. Especially if Supergirl doesn't come back soon.

  Winn Schott : Yeah. Yeah, sorry.

  Ruby Arias : I don't sleep anymore, either. I'm exhausted, too.
