Should Kara Zor-L live, she will inevitably prove to be a hindrance to us. It is regrettable that she must die. But die she must. There is no need for battle. Our audience has left the stands. This show of combat pleased him, but it was most inefficient. Please. Let me do what is required, and I promise to make her death as quick as I possibly can. Your own will be even quicker, and as painless as possible. The decision is up to you.

End me here and now, before I knock down the sandcastles you call temples, your priests left to die of thirst, your murkiest depths plumbed and explored like a dockside whore's!"

I have never been able to actually do it. So, for that reason, I am very, very glad that it's a 5.3... or rather, that's what I would be saying, if I wasn't saying:
